W2M0/264I Dunbar Dev. Corp. <br />October 4. 2001 <br />Page 3 <br />Watershed District Approval Pendiog. TI e applicant has submitted stormwater management <br />plans to the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for approval. As of this writing it is anticipated <br />the MCWD will act on the application on October 25. This is after the anticipated City final <br />approval date of October 22. which obviously presents a timing problem unless Council wants to <br />grant a conditional approval. The only risk in granting conditional approx al is that the MCWD could <br />potentially require stormwater plan changes that afTcct the site la>out. in which ease the Council <br />w ould have to review and approve the changes. This appears to be a minimal risk, although we are <br />still waiting for confimtation that the existing pond will handle this development proposal. <br />Comprcheiisive Plan Approval Set for October 24. Met Council stafl'ore nearing completion of <br />their review of Oronu's 2000-2020 CMP (including the Senior I lousing amendment) and intend to <br />place the Plan on the Met Council's October 24 Consent Agenda for approval. Again, this is after <br />the October 22 anticipated City approvals; however, we should have a copy of the Met Council final <br />staff report by October 22. which should indicate w hether there are any last minute problems. <br />Mn/DOT Plat Review Raises Minor Issues.
