a. Continue to participate in the Council's Plat Monitoring Program <br />b. Implement the advisory comments for Transportation, Surface Water Management, <br />and Water Supply. <br />4. Approve the City of Lino Lakes Tier II Comprehensive Sewer Plan. <br />The Metropolitan Council approval also included advisory comments which are attached to this <br />report. The transportation comments are being addressed by staff and consist of minor <br />corrections. The other comments are merely advisory. The City has included funding in the <br />2010 budget for updating the Surface Water Management Plan. <br />Staff will provide an overview of the plan at the work session. <br />Council Direction <br />Staff is requesting council direction on how they wish to proceed with final approval of the 2030 <br />Comprehensive Plan update. Under state law the city must formally adopt the comprehensive <br />plan within nine months of the Metropolitan Council's final action. <br />The City cannot adopt a modified plan without prior review and authorization from the <br />Metropolitan Council. Proposed changes, if any, will need to conform with regional plans and <br />be coordinated with Metropolitan Council. It is likely that minor text changes i.e., goals and <br />policies that are local in nature and remain consistent with or do not impact regional plans, can <br />be administratively approved. <br />Major changes such as modifications to the land use plan will be a major undertaking and require <br />full review and approval by the Metropolitan Council. These types of changes would require <br />remodeling of both the transportation system, sanitary sewer and water systems. This is both an <br />expensive and time consuming process. Staff would recommend that any changes of this type be <br />reviewed and evaluated as a separate comprehensive plan amendment after formal adoption of <br />the 2030 update. <br />Attachments <br />1.
