RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br />WHEREAS, the property owner has formally requested that the property be <br />incorporated into the ML SA to allow for connection to the municipal sewer system; and <br />WHEREAS, in light of the above noted facts the Orono Planning Commission <br />pursuant to published and written notice held a public hearing on November 16, 2015 and on a <br />vote of 6-0 recommended that the property at 480 Russell Avenue be added to the MUSA; and <br />WHEREAS, Metropolitan Council staff have confirmed that this property can be <br />added to the MUSA through an administratively -approved amendment to the CMP. The <br />amendment is exempt from the 60 -day comment period by adjacent jurisdictions because it is <br />less than 40 acres in area, it does not change any Metropolitan Growth Forecasts, and is further <br />from adjacent jurisdictions than the City's standard notification distance; and <br />WHEREAS, based on staff calculations, inclusion of the property in the MUSA <br />will not drop Orono's density calculation below the 3.0 units per acre threshold; and <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Orono City Council <br />conditionally approves an amendment of the 2008-2030 Community 'Management Plan to <br />include 480 Russell Avenue in the Metropolitan Urban Service Area subject to Metropolitan <br />Council review and approval, and directs City staff to prepare such an amendment and submit it <br />to the Metropolitan Council for review and approval. <br />Adopted by the City Council of Orono, Minnesota this 14th day of December, 2015. <br />ATTEST: <br />f <br />Tiegs, City Clerk <br />Lih Tod McMillan, Mayor <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />
