Memo <br />July 24, 1992 <br />Page 2 <br />MUSA Boundary Anendment <br />The attached map and legal description indicate the proposed new <br />MUSA boundary. Only properties which were included in the Stubbs Bay <br />project area are involved. Although no future sewer extensions are <br />anticipated to be needed outside the current boundary, any future <br />expansion would require a future MUSA line amendment. Also, the <br />capacity of the system downstream from Stubbs Bay would limit the <br />number of additional future units to fifty or less in this area of <br />Orono . <br />Note that while the Stubbs Bay MUSA boundary amendment is <br />considered as Comp Plan Amendment No. 4, Comp Plan Amendment No. 3 <br />(which updates the Comprehensive Sewer Policy Plan and adds other <br />already sewered areas to the MUSA) has been delayed since earlier this <br />year pending staff submittal of additional requested information, <br />which has recently been submitted. It has been indicated that Comp <br />Plan Amendment No. 3 will result in a Met Council review of our rural <br />development policies (2 and 5 acres zones versus Met Council's "64 <br />units per 640 acres" policy). <br />Notice for the August 3'*d public- hearing has been published and <br />notice mailed to neighboring cities, although such mailed notice is <br />likely not required since there is likely no effect on those cities. <br />The public hearing process is required for any amendments to the <br />Comprehensive Plan, as Indicated on page CMP 10-3. <br />Staff Recoanendation <br />Staff recommends that Planning Commission forward a <br />recommendation to Council for approval of inclusion of the Stubbs Bay <br />sewer project area within the MUSA boundary, per the attached map and <br />legal description.
