Consideration of Resolution No. 95 - 80 Adoption of Standards to Reduce Non -Point Source Pollution - Mr. Powell explained that non -point pollution involves pollutant materials which are carried off of the land into receiving waters through rainfall and snowmelt. The Metropolitan Council has adopted a strategy to reduce this source of pollution to water bodies in the Metro Area. The City, through the recent completion of the Surface Water Management Plan and updating of the Floodplain and Shoreland Ordinances, has met most of the technical requirements of the strategy. The remaining area to address to comply with the Metropolitan Council's strategy is to amend the City's Land Use Control to incorporate the Plan and revised ordinances. City Staff would anticipate completion of the Land Use Controls by the Spring of 1996 in conjunction with an updating of the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan. Mr. Powell noted that this resolution is acceptable to the Metropolitan Council and recommended its adoption. Council Member Kuether moved to adopt Resolution No. 95 - 80 Council Member Elliott seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 95 - 80 can be found at the end of these minutes.
