Anoka County Multi - Jurisdictional All Hazards Mitigation Plan dwellings. The Morton Farm Reserve, a Planned Unit Development, uses a cluster wastewater system for its residents within the development. This PUD does accomplish an efficient use of rural land in Burns while providing its (20) residential units with worry free septic systems. Infrastructure and infrastructure projects: A senior housing community development has been discussed and would possibly contain not only residences, but also medical and retail facilities for the development. This multi - dwelling area would be located along a main county road, not only for resident's accessibility convenience but also for future development of the surrounding roads. A major transportation infrastructure project is being developed in which County Road 22, which runs from east and west through the township, would be converted to a U.S. Highway. This project would not only involve Burns Township but eventually all communities in which County Road 22 runs east and west through and would when completed connect two major highways, Interstate 35W and State Highway 169.
