The Met Council has 60 days to render a determination of metropolitan system impact. Since Met Council's typical finding on completeness is a request for additional information, the 60 day clock does not start until they make a determination of completeness. Upon City adoption, however, the City should also present the Plan to surrounding or overlapping jurisdictions, including the County, the School Districts, adjacent Cities, the Watershed District, and possibly others as well. This would be the fastest possible schedule at this point. If the City would like to hold community meetings prior to going to a public hearing, they could possibly be held in June (depending upon the City's schedule) or the public hearing date could be moved back one month. Originally, we had anticipated some community meetings based on the 5779 WAYZATA BOULEVARD, SUITE 555 ST. LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA 55416 PHONE 612-595-9636 FAX 61 2-595-9637 Page 85
