Mary Hill Smith <br />Dear Mr. Gaffron; <br />The Metropolitan Council received the City of Orono’s Stonebay Outlot A Comprehensive Plan <br />Amendment on May 5,2004. The amendment reguides 3.69 acres from Commercial Office to <br />Commercial Officc/Retail to allow potential limited retail development on the site. <br />At its May 24, 2000 regular meeting, the governing body of the Council identified certain types of local <br />comprehensive plan amendments that may be reviewed by Council staff w'thout further fo-mal rc'dew by <br />the governing body of the Council. Council staff applied the plan review waiver criteria established by <br />the Council’s governing body and finds that the amendment is in conformance with metropolitan system <br />plans, consistent with the Regional D elopment Framework, and has no impact on the plans of other <br />units of local government. Therefore, the Council will waive further review and the City may place this <br />amendment into effect. <br />The amendment, explanatory materials supplied and the information submission form will be appended to <br />the City's P.an in the Council's files. If you have any questions about this review, please contact Robin <br />Caufman, Principal Reviewer, at 651-602-1457. <br />Sincerely, <br />\/lit. <br />Phyllis Il^son, Manager <br />Plannjng^nd Technical Assistance <br />cc: Mary Hill Smith, Councilmember District 3 <br />Robin Caufman, Sector Representative <br />Cheryl Olsen, Rcfenals Coordinator <br />• www.inetrocouAcil.orf Metro Into Une 001-laM <br />930 iMi Plfth Btroct • Bt.
