Mr. Starr had been asked to reflect a change in the Urban Service Line to comply with the Metro Councils Development Framework Guide. All -this change is being aked for in order to solve some of the problems with sewage in the Shendoah and Country Lakes areas of the City (SW) MC has said that in order to consider a central sewer service in Lino Lakes certain changes will have to be made in the City's Comprehensive Use Plan (CUP). Metro Council (MC) has placed the western potion of the city, south of main street, in a "urban service area" and says that sewer capacity will be necessary by 1980. the remainder of the city is in a rural" service area and would hot be served by central sewers until 1990 or after, if at all. This rural area would have to remain a very low intensity and MC is recommending that lots sizes be kept at a minimum of 10 acres. MC has said that if the city is to obtain approval of the Mc the following conditions must be adhered to: 1. revise its comprehensive plan to reflect the development framewrok and its urban service line (and make consistent amendments to the comprehensive sewer plan), 2. Obtain modification of the MC's development framework policy of not providing metro sewer capacity to the city until after 1980. If these conditions are followed, they (MC) will consider approval of central sanitary sewers to solve the immediate problems in the Shenandoah and Country Lakes areas, whatever the specific system alternative might be. The Board Members discussed this plan as proposed and decided that no action could be taken on this matter without further consideration by the Council. The Clerk advised the Board that on July 24th there will be a meeting at the MC Chambers to discuss the Shenandoah problem and Mr. Starr indicated that he would De present that afternoon. Mr. Gourley moved to adjourn at 10:15 PM. Motion seconded by Mr. Hill. Aye.
