r <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendment No. 6 - MUSA Boundary Revision <br />January 8, 1996 <br />Page 2 <br />Note that if the City is successful in its application to the Metropolitan Council, the City <br />Council will consider in more detail which areas of the City will be immediately scheduled for <br />municipal sewer installation. Not all ten areas are proposed to be sewered immediately, and <br />it may be five to ten years or more before all have been served. A few of the areas have <br />requested sewer as soon as possible. <br />Related/Non-Related Issues <br />The Metropolitan Council considers a number of related and non-related issues when reviewing <br />cities’ requests for MUSA boundary amendments. These include; <br />Viability of the City’s on-site systems management plan. <br />Sewer in-flow/infiltration management plan. <br />Status of local stormwater planning. <br />Land use policies including rural density. <br />Transportation. <br />Housing, especially in the areas of affordable and life cycle housing. <br />In its application to the Metropolitan Council, the City has addressed each of these issues in <br />a manner that we hope will gain acceptance from Metropolitan Council. Some of these issues <br />may require additional actions by the City in the form of specific ordinance adoption and/or <br />additional comprehensive plan amendments. It is the City's expectation that Metropolitan <br />Council will review the proposal within a 60-day timeframe and by mid-March the City should <br />have a good handle on what, if any, additional requirements or conditions will be placed on <br />approval of this amendment. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Staff recommends approval of the proposed MUSA boundary revisions as presented. <br />Options for Action <br />1 Recommend approval as presented. <br />2. Approve with conditions or revisions. <br />3. Table for further information <br />4. Recommend denial. <br />5.Other.
