Water Storage Siting Study City of Lino Lakes WSB Project No. 2988-44 Page 6 Table 2. Lino Lakes Well Production Well No. Capacity (gpm) Aquifer Year Installed 1 675 Jordan 1971 2 675 Jordan 1986 3 1,200 Jordan 1995 4 750 Jordan 1996 5 1,100 Jordan 2005 6 1,200 Jordan 2015 Total 5,550 N/A N/A Firm Capacity 4,350 N/A N/A The City’s firm capacity should be equal to or greater than the maximum day demand. At this time, the maximum day demand is 4.92 MGD and the firm capacity is 6.26 MGD; therefore, the production capacity is sufficient for the City’s current population. Future Storage Needs The Metropolitan Council designates Lino Lakes as an “Emerging Suburban Edge” community, which are defined as follows: Emerging Suburban Edge communities… are in the early stages of transitioning into urbanized levels of development. Emerging Suburban Edge communities are expected to plan for forecasted population and household growth at average densities of at least 3-5 units per acre for new development and redevelopment. In addition, Emerging Suburban Edge communities are expected to target opportunities for more intensive development near regional transit investments. Due to its location and designation, it is anticipated that Lino Lakes’ population will grow by fifty percent over the next 25 years. Any new developments will be required to connect to the municipal water distribution system and demand an estimated 100 gallons per capita per day. The projected population served, average day demand, and maximum day demand are shown in Table 3. Table 3.
