COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT <br /> 20Q$-2030 Community Management Plan. The proposed development is within the azea <br /> directly west of Old Crystal Bay Ttoad, south af Wayzata Boulevazd and north of Highway 12. <br /> This area has been zoned RR-1B, 2-acre miz�imu,m lot size (4.5 units/acre) since 1975. The area <br /> was initially re-guided in the 2000-2020 CMP to alZow for a mix of tow-density single-family <br /> homes and higher density multi�family, with an overali dezisity of 2-4 units per acre. In the <br /> 2008-2030 C?VIP the praperty was again reguided to allow an overali density of 7-10 units per <br /> acre, which likely would only be achievable via a mix of atta,ched townhomes and larger mtilti- <br /> famiiy buildi.ngs. The rationale for the density increase at this site and the I}umas site to the <br /> immediate west was the adjacency to the Orono Industrial Park; the location sandv►�iched <br /> between two high-traffic roadways; the avaiia.bility of urban utility services;and the proximity to <br /> downtown Long Lake. <br /> In part the density increase was established to meet Metropolitan Council goals by guiding <br /> cazefully-selected parcels at densities that would potentially allow for mare affordable housing <br /> options. Met Council guidelines require an overall new sewered development density of at least <br /> 3 units per acre. In order to meet these goals, certain parcels within the Metropolitan Urban <br /> Service Area (MUSA} were guided for densities significantly higher#han 3 units/acre—to a11ow <br /> those shoreland areas in the '_VIUSA historically zoned and planned for low density, to deveFop at <br /> the 1-acre and 2-acre lot sizes desired by the City. <br /> Impacts of Plan Amendaient. In recent conversations with Met Council staff, it has become <br /> cleax that developing th�is specific site (and others nearby guided similazly) at densities <br /> significantly lower than the current C1�IP guided densities, triggers the requirement for formal <br /> amendment of the CMP and with that amendment will be an expectation that other develapable <br /> properties be reguided for higlZer density to offset �he decxease. An analysis of Orono's current <br /> stat�s as a result of the applicaxrt's proposal is attached as Eahibit O. <br />
