Earl Olson Minor Subdivision rMO -4- PARK BOARD MEETING January 7, 1991 The regular January meeting of the Lino Lakes Park Board was called to order at 7:00 PM on Monday January 7, 1991 at Lino Lakes City Hall by chairman Ray Johnson. Board members in attendance were Candy Toffoli, Bob Williams, John Baumann, Ray Johnson, Ken Johnson, Bill Nissen and George Lindy. Staff in attendance were Don Volk, Director of Public Works, Marty Asleson, Superintendent of Parks, Rec and Forestry, and Carole Kohler, Parks Secretary. Consideration of Minutes - There were no additions or corrections to the December 5, 1990 meeting. The minutes were approved as mailed. Open Mike - Andy Neal, Councilman appeared under open mike w_ith Mrs. Hill, a resident in the Sunrise Park neighborhood concerning a problem her children seem to be having at the Sunrise Park skating rink lately. It seems that her children have been chased off of the pleasure rinks by other children who say they are scheduled for ice time. Marty and Don both addressed Mrs Hill. She was informed that there are ice time schedules now posted at the warming houses and that there '—N should be no priorities to anyone on non scheduled ice time. Also, that if a problem should arise at the rink, and it can't be handled, to call the police dispatcher and in turn they will reach either Don or Mart. Another concern of Mrs. Hill and Mr. Neal was that they think that the lights at the rink are on all night. Marty explained that the maintenance people start working at 4:00 AM to flood the rinks, and also the rinks are maintained and cleared at night after the rinks are closed, so it may appear that the lights are on longer than needed. However, he will look into the matter and see that the lights are not left on when they are not needed. Old Business: A. Wenzel Farms Property - Kirk Corson of Hokanson Development returned with his new park dedication concept for the Wenzel Farm Development. His new plan showed .9 acres of trail winding through the proposed area where the townhouses will be , going to the east and south down and around the proposed dedicated park area that sits at the southwest corner of the plat. This area would be 2.6 acres. Mr. Corson also showed photos of the proposed park land. ( The Wenzel Farms Property development will be a three phase development.) Ray Johnson stated that he was not convinced that this is the best area for a park as it seems to be so far away from the population density ,�• (approximately 1/3 to 1/2 mile) from the townhouses, PAGE 1 Elm Street.) The rest of the board agreed. They all expressed a desire to see a park more centrally located in the development. All the board members also agreed that the trail system should stay as was proposed. They feel a major consideration should be an area for a tot lot or play area , as opposed to taking the cash instead of park land dedication as was also suggested during this discussion. Marty suggested that this area should be approximately (1) acre. Ray Johnson called for a proposal from the board. George Lindy proposed that Mr. Corson try to incorporate the general area of lots 17-18-19 and 20 of block 1, and possibly some of the green area by the townhomes into a park area. Mr. Corson explained that they will do their best to satisfy the desires of the board, and return with a new plan. B. Lakecrest Development - Jeff Joyer and Ron Mikolai who represent the sellers of the proposed Lakecrest Development appeared and informed the board that there is also a third parcel of property available for sale now. That being Outlot K, or the 7.46 acre parcel directly west of outlots H & J currently being considered. Also in attendance were approximately 35 residents of the area. This group was represented by Mr. Ben Rosene and Mr.Paul Brand, both reside on E. Shadow Lake Drive. They presented a petition to the park board. It was signed by over 200 residents from 180 homes in the area. They state that there are presently 183 children of approximate pre school age. The petition was in support of the purchase of the available park land, and several people pledged a dollar figure to contribute to equipment, etc. Those in attendance voiced the opinion that they would prefer to see a smaller, less noisy park, geared more toward the younger people who wouldn't need ice rinks or ball fields, etc. Ben Benson, also a resident of E. Shadow Lake Drive who was in attendance suggested that Ray Johnson explain exactly what the procedure is before a park is developed. Ray did so, and also explained that the biggest issue with the purchase of park property at this time is money. Pointing out recent budget cut backs. George Lindy explained that the park board has been searching for a large piece of land in the southern portion of the City, but the park board is working with a very limited budget. Paul Brand suggested that money shouldn't be the only point of interest. That the purchase of the property now would be a positive step to prevent a potential accident that could happen when kids try to cross the very busy Birch Street." Let's fix our short comings now -this has to be corrected soon." Ray Johnson asked those in attendance what direction they would .�✓ like the board to take. All agreed that they "just PAGE 2 t want a park" -but what parcel? A polling of the board showed the preference to be parcels B & C (outlots H & J). Don Volk suggested that not a lot of land would be needed. The board should look to the future with additional purchases. 7 acres is a good number -access is important. Marty agreed. He feels it's important that the neighbors define what is needed. He would also suggest parcel B as the hills are already there for sliding etc. Marty also suggested that we consider the new Centennial Elementary School will be going in nearby on Birch Street, and that will probably offer some of the same recreational opportunities and equipment that the residents are considering, such as tennis courts, etc. Don pointed out again, the limited funds, and said that it could be several years before the land is developed even if the board should purchase now. The neighbors in attendance suggested private contributions and the availability of their time and energy to work with the City. John Baumann made a motion for City Staff to look into the possibility of funding for the purchase of parcels B & C ($60,000.00 is the price suggested by Ron Mikolai). Candy Toffoli seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously. Mr. Mikolai gave the board members a list of possible purchase options showing financing terms to be a Contract for Deed for 2 1/2 years with 20% down. C. Highland Meadows - This item from new business was moved uR in the agenda to be presented at this time because of the preceding lengthy discussion _ Mr. Jack Menkveld, Developer of Highland Meadows appeared with a sketch of his proposed development. The proposed plan is to develop approximately 39 acres into 86 single family lots. This would include a minimum park area of 3.9 acres proposed for the southeast corner of the property, and a trail corridor to Marpon Acres Development directly to the west. The park plan concept was accepted by the park board as presented, and approved unanimously. D. Recreation Joint Powers Agreement Update - Don Volk referred to a recent Centerville Council Meeting where the cities of Circle Pines, Centerville and Lexington were looking into a plan to form their own joint recreation agreement in lieu of recent developments from the Lino Lakes Council. Lino Lakes city staff has been directed to look into other options also. There are three considerations at this point, one is to ratify the current agreement as it is, another is for Lino Lakes to form their own recreation department and the third would be to lease out to other cities for recreational needs, etc. Marty Asleson pointed out �. that the need for cooperation at this time is very PAGE 3 important. Ken Johnson, like Marty has been working with this Joint Powers Plan for the past couple of years and would like to see Lino Lakes continue with the plans for the agreement. Don informed the board that the council considered this item at a meeting last Saturday, and will continue with the discussion at a special meeting this Thursday. He pointed out that the council does recognize the need for recreation programming. E. Park Dedication Formula Discussion - Don Volk explained that John Miller along with the Design Review Board was concerned about how to handle park dedication for minor sub divisions, and how certain formulas affect the concept. He proposed a meeting with the Design Review Board and Park Board try to work out an agreeable formula on all types of developments. Ray Johnson proposed this meeting for the same night as the next Park Board meeting at 8:00, considering that the next meeting may not be very long. Staff will contact the DRB to set up this meeting. Marty informed the board that the Design Review Board rejected the Earl Olson property plan. Evidently the DRB felt that the Park Board, by accepting the plan as ^ presented, set a precedent of park land over lot size. Therefore, the park dedication plan will be coming back to the Park Board again. New Business : Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review - Don Volk asked for comments from the board concerning the plan. There were no comments or additions. Focus Meeting - Don Volk reminded the board of the upcoming Focus Breakfast Meeting on Saturday Morning January 12. It appears at this time that all council members will be in attendance. All park board members will also be there. Other New Business - Ray Johnson took this time to express how he felt about the recent decision by the council to reduce the size of the park board from seven to five members. He asked to go on record as opposing this decision, stating that he feels this group has always worked well together and has done a lot of good work, and that he's very disappointed. He thinks the decision is a mistake. George Lindy expressed that he feels that all of the board members would be clad to forego their yearly salaries in order to maintain the seven member board. PAGE 4 r"\ No other new business. The meeting adjourned at 10:05 PM. PAGE 5 /11%k DATE: January 30, 1991 TO: All Park Board Members FROM: Marty Asleson, Supt. of Parks, Recreation and Forestry RE: New Elementary School Park Concept During the past month Parks Staff has met with the Landscape Architect for Centennial School District's new facility off of Birch Street . We worked up a plan that will be presented at the next park board meeting. John McClellan, School Superintendent will be there to present the idea and answer questions. Some of the questions that come to mind are that of development responsibilities, scheduling and maintenance responsibilities. From my research, there are not many examples of written agreements to go by, however, there are plenty of cooperative things being done. The City of New Brighton, for instance, (and they are not too much different from most cities) do the scheduling for all of the ballfields in the City. Thus, there is only one phone call to make for a reservation. The school districts generally do their own development, and the city's usually help out with maintenance, particularly such tasks as lining the ball fields, dragging, aerifying and fertilizing. The main point is that we need to use these facilities and tie them into our developing Parks and Recreation programs. Please bring your concerns and comments Monday night. Thank you. .✓mlk DATE: January 30, 1991 TO: All Park Board Members FROM: Marty Asleson, Supt. of Parks, Rec and Forestry RE: Lakecrest/Black Duck Park Purchase Options Enclosed are park land purchase options as you requested.

RE: Park Dedication DATE: February 4, 1991 WWI We have created the largest park possible above the 100 year flood level in the townhouse portion of the Wenzel Farms Addition. It has access to the single family development by two trails and access throughout the townhouse development and to the regional park by additional trails. While the Park Board requested at least a one acre park, we were able to provide over a three acre park. Al of the park area is high and dry with the exception of a 40, by 40' area adjacent to a culvert. The drainage easement shown within the park is a requirement of the watershed for future manipulation of the drainage going to a culvert under Lake Drive even though it not a wet area. The park was placed totally within the' townhouse portion of the development in order to attain preliminary plat approval of the single family portion of the Wenzel Farms Addition at the January City Council meeting.. I hope that this attempt at establishing the tot lot type of play area meets with your approval.

AM:bg cc: John McClellan Randy Schumacher John Mille Don Volk Marty Asleson Bill Lawrence TO: Park Board Members FROM: Parks Staff DATE: January 3, 1991 RE: Highland Meadows Park Dedication Proposal Please find attached a copy of the North Suburban Development Association, Inc. sketch plan, and a letter from Mr. Jack Menkveld with a description of their proposal. The park would help to satisfy open space needs to the west of Lake Drive in this area. There is a total of 38.9 acres with 36 lots for a density of 2.2 lots per development acre. Thus the park land dedication under the present policy is satisfied. The trail system would follow the existing power pole easement to the east and west. The suggestion was also made to Mr. Menkveld that a park trail easement be placed somewhere in the Lois Lane cul-de-sac to allow for the anticipated natural path to the park area. 803 13', UUU.UU - 1021 1922 363 p O 195.00 - .�....., .., 1353 " ;17576, Oo N 79TH ST. 1 1 1 73:6; 6 �1 2 �G�, CD 15 w 2�..>~F- EXCEPTION �. -_ - (I�53•, - > e„ Ir;: - •yf � i N 89'56'18"E a � __ 195.00 I_ 1 4 3 3 4 0 4 1503 (1419,'�= 8 23 67 < 13 g 5. 8Cf 1- o 156 3 13 12 11 10 - 12 216 0'; + - ,10•+00i .,. �v �__ (1,340) - ! _ 12G. 1- 2 .. .. t05- -5 --o 99-OS-- (tO80G) W (105J0 t __ - •at�ti ;I,;-G " , .'

December 12, 1990 Attention: Lino Lakes Staff, City Council & interested persons SUBJECT: Wenzel Farms Addition Hokanson construction has attempted to create a plat on the Wenzel Farms property that would meet all the desires of the City of Lino Lakes and the adjacent property owners. In so doing we were asked to move the road to the west to give the adjacent landowners access to their land to allow them to subdivide. Later, we were told that all the road would be located on our property even though we receive no benefit and would lose eight lots in doing so. In addition, because the road is now located on the property line we are told that we need to sell additional land to the property owners abutting Elm Street. Also, we now have the problem of losing trees whereas our original plan would allow the trees to exist in the rear yards and act as a buffer for the existing residences to the west. To protect the trees, we are now supposed to change the grade of the roads where necessary and show the trees on the survey. We are told that any development must have curvilinear streets even though Sunrise Meadows Addition has few curved streets. By using curvilinear streets our development now has ninety lots versus the one hundred and two originally shown. Park land dedication: The state statutes regarding parkland dedications are explicit. Ten percent is the maximum land area that can be required in a single family development. Trails that are dedicated as a park dedication on the final plat must be included in that ten percent. In summary, our plat is being reduced from 102 lots to 90 lots, we are losing land to put in a road which doesn't benefit us and sell additional land to a neighbor because the road will now be too close to his house, we are to dedicate trails as parks and not have them apply as parkland dedication, we are to have curvilinear streets even though Sunrise Meadows Addition doesn't, and we are to locate and protect our trees from the adjacent road even though we would prefer to put the road where it won't affect the trees. 9174 Isanti St. N.E. • Blaine, MN 55434 • (612) 786-3130 The aforementioned obstacles that have recently appeared do not include problems that will now be encountered because of the wetland condemnation by the City of Lino Lakes. Prior to the condemnation, we could have rearranged the wetland within the allowances of mitigation and received a nationwide permit to allow some fill. Now we cannot touch it other than for excavation. In addition, because it has been condemned for easement purposes only, the taxes must continue to be paid by the existing owners and we cannot meet the necessary setbacks from it to use the area between the easement and Lake Drive. This does not include the land we cannot use on the south side of the easement which we pay for at the rate of $10,000 an acre - a premium rate given the recession we are now facing.

Wpcem to pond a Rice Lake Court Rice Lake Lane son onstruction, Inc. December 12, 1990 Attention: Lino Lakes Staff, City Council & interested persons SUBJECT: Wenzel Farms Addition Hokanson construction has attempted to create a plat on the Wenzel Farms property that would meet all the desires of the City of Lino Lakes and the adjacent property owners. In so doing we were asked to move the road to the west to give the adjacent landowners access to their land to allow them to subdivide. Later, we were told that all the road would be located on our property even though we receive no benefit and would lose eight lots in doing so. In addition, because the road is now located on the property line we are told that we need to sell additional land to the property owners abutting Elm Street. Also, we now have the problem of losing trees whereas our original plan would allow the trees to exist in the rear yards and act as a buffer for the existing residences to the west. To protect the trees, we are now supposed to change the grade of the roads where necessary and show the trees on the survey. We are told that any development must have curvilinear streets even though Sunrise Meadows Addition has few curved streets. By using curvilinear streets our development now has ninety lots versus the one hundred and two originally shown. Park land dedication: The state statutes regarding parkland dedications are explicit. Ten percent is the maximum land area that can be required in a single family development. Trails that are dedicated as a park dedication on the final plat must be included in that ten percent. In summary, our plat is being reduced from 102 lots to 90 lots, we are losing land to put in a road which doesn't benefit us and sell additional land to a ,neighbor because the road will now be too close to his house, we are to dedicate trails as parks and not have them apply as parkland dedication, we are to have curvilinear streets even though Sunrise Meadows Addition doesn't, and we are to locate and protect our trees from the adjacent road even though we would prefer to put the road where it won't affect the trees. 9174 Isanti St. N.E. • Blaine,'MN 55434 • (612) 786-3130 The aforementioned obstacles that have recently appeared do not .�-�.. include problems that will now be encountered because of the wetland condemnation by the City of Lino Lakes. Prior to the condemnation, we could have rearranged the wetland within the allowances of mitigation and received a nationwide permit to allow some fill. Now we cannot touch it other than for excavation. In addition, because it has been condemned for easement purposes only, the taxes must continue to be paid by the existing owners and we cannot meet the necessary setbacks from it to use the area between the easement and Lake Drive. This does not include the land we cannot use on the south side of the easement which we pay for at the rate of $10,000 an acre - a premium rate given the recession we are now facing. Many of the issues noted above were not addressed when we first presented our conceptual plat to the City Council. We would propose that we submit the preliminary plat as approved with the road being relocated in lieu of park dedication (trails and some land will still be provided as shown to the Park Board). The other issues which appear to be in a state of confusion will then be resolved by the City Council at the public hearing and some direction can then be taken for the final plat. This will expedite the process. The alternative is to lose another month in attempting to resolve the newly arising issues prior to appearing before the City Council in which case the issues will still be altered in the public hearing process anyway.

The idea for establishing a standard formula for development in Lino Lakes seems to fall apart when looked at from a Minor Subdivision standpoint (i.e.) sub standard parcels made from park land dedication, and the minimum/maximum dedication dollars based on raw land value. I have been directed to ask to set a joint meeting for the Park Board and Design Review Board. This meeting should be held on a weekday or evening. Please bring several dates to the next meeting that you would be available for such a meeting. MEMORANDUM TO: Lino Lakes Design Review Board FROM: John Miller, City Planner DATE: December 3, 1990 SUBJECT: Amending Park Dedication Requirements Background: The Lino Lakes Park Board is responsible for negotiating with land developers for both land and park facilities. In either late 1987 or early 1988 the park fee for residential lots was increased from about $150 to $400 per lot. Since that time land values have increased in the city and the board members are looking at increasing the cash dedication. Why does the park board want to do this? In their negotiations with the developers, the members have noted that most of them were more interested in paying the $400 than in giving a land dedication. Obviously the cash was a better deal for the developers when actually there should be little financial difference between the two options of land or cash. In any attempt, to rectify this situation the board and the city staff assigned to them have proposed the following: A. Each lot in a minor subdivision would have the fee increased from $400 to $ 500. B. For other subdivisions this formula would apply: (Land cost) (.10) (Total Acreage) = Dollars/lot Number of Lots The land cost is defined as a minimum of $10,000 an acre. Professional Opinion: So what does the formula produce in way of park fees? Let's look at some examples: Applied to D. Erickson's Willow Ponds this is the result: (10,000) (.10) (13) = $481. 27 50 Well that shows a modest increase. Let's look at Sunrise Meadows. Even though its already developed it should be a good test for the formula. 00IN /1" 30*' (10,000) (.10) (42) _ $407. 103 Hmmm. Some improvement over the current $400. but not too much. Let's try Woodridge Estates. (10,000) (.10) (38) _ $542. 70 OK. Now the pattern emerges. Development with lower densities pay higher rates with the formula. Here all the R-1X developments will pay more if the park board asks for cash. Subdivisions in R-1 areas will pay lesser amounts. Now there are two ways of looking at this. First it can be argued that the bigger lots are more valuable and a higher dedication is fair. And it can also be argued that large lots cover a greater land area so they should pay more; you know, closer to the ten per cent rule. The other way of arguing this is that residential areas with greater densities need more park facilities because each lot is smaller. Hence, the cash dedication should be greater. There are after all more people to serve in an R-1 area vis-a-vis an R-1X 11-1s, district. Let's go back to some analysis. Using the draft formula a residential development with a density of 25 homes per acre (about average) would pay $400. per lot - exactly what the current rate is. With the draft formula any density greater than 25 homes per acre actually would pay less than the current amount. For example three lots per acre would provide a fee of only $333. each. A development with two homes per acre would pay $500. for each lot. Here's my recommendation. Recommend approval of the formula but just as there is a minimum land value there should be a minimum park fee. The city should increase that fee to $450. per lot. If the formula produces a greater amount then fine. But if not the developer would pay the $450. fee. Recommended Action: Motion to recommend to the city council adoption of an ordinance amendment setting the park fee for minor subdivision at $500. and establishing a formula for determining other park fees but with the addition of a $450. minimum fee for each lot in a major subdivision. PARK BOARD MEETING September 5, 1990 i"N There has been discussion at previous park board meetings to investigate the possibilities of changing the cash park dedication. The cash park dedication now stands at $400.00 per lot. Laura Elken surveyed several communities and it appears that* we are not to far off - if we consider the cost of "raw land". "Raw land" can be purchased now for between $6,000 to $10,000 per acre - fair market land value.. Some time ago Marty and Don met to -determine a fair method to be followed. The method they came up with is as follows: Land Cost/Acre X 10% of Subdivided Acreage - Park ($10, 000/acre minimum) (C�,�., �, �_') Dedication/ Lot EXAMPLE: Willow Ponds S } ter 27 Lots, 13 acres, - Land Cost is $10,000/acre. $10,000 X 1.3 Acres (10%) 27 Lots = $481.48/Lot This is using the 0 - 3 units/acre/l0% category of our dedication policy. That is the figure that we would need per lot to acquire comparable land to be used for parks. The park board discussed this formula and discussed what would happen if someone purchased the land 10 years ago at a much cheaper price. There will have to be a base figure used. With todays rate that base figure will probably stand at $10,000 per acre of raw land. The board also discussed what park dedication would be if it were a minor subdivision of. Incorporated in the park dedication formula will be a cost per lot amount. Based on $10,000 per acre that cost per lot would be $481.48/lot. Next month the park board will receive a draft park dedication ordinance. MOTION: Ken Johnson moved to direct staff to draft a park dedication ordinance change based on the formula that was presented to the park board. Candy Toffoli seconded the motion and the motion was approved unanimously. BRANDYWOOD DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL The city council has approved the Brandywood Development. Construction of the development is scheduled to start the summer of 1991. As a result of council approval, the park land previously r Page 3 n ,1-N ,•*%, CHANGE PARAGRAPH 3 TO READ: Paragraph 3.

The city may choose to accept an ecjuivalent amount in cash from applicant based on the following formula: Land Cost/Acre (510-,000/minimum acre) X (Density Factor % x Subd. acreage) Number of tots in Subdivision Park Dedication/Lot Paragraph 4. The park board may accept any combination of land and mon, not to exceed the dedication requirements. Paagraph 5.: Minor subdivisions, as defined by ordinance, will be required to follow the Land Dedication Density Table listed in the ordinance, or $500.00 per building site, at the decision of the park board. T TO: All Park Board Members FROM: Marty Asleson, Supt. Parks, Recreation and Forestry DATE: January 3, 1991 RE: Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review Please find enclosed a copy of the proposed 1990 Comprehen- sive Plan Land Use Amendment. John Miller's Executive Summary section explains the process and the reasoning. Please bring any comments you might have on this document to the Park Board Meeting next Monday. Thank you 1990 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT Land Use Element CITY OF LINO LAKES October 1990 DRAFT A,". )O-N EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Minnesota legislature has given municipalities the authority to plan for many years. Currently that legislation is found in section 462.353 of the state statutes. There plan preparation, adoption, and amendment are all discussed. In the early - 1970's the legislature recognized that the size and extent of the Minneapolis - St. Paul Urban area was so great that special planning requirements were needed as a result, the Metropolitan Council was created. This legislation is found in sections 473.123 of the statutes. Lino Lakes first comprehensive plan was started in 1973. Titled Development Policies and Comprehensive Guide Plan, the document was reviewed by the Metropolitan Council and found to be consistent with that agency's region -wide plan on January 24, 1974. One of the responsibilities assigned to the Metropolitan Council is to review Municipal plans. Section 473.175 of the statutes requires the council to prepare a metropolitan development guide providing policies and goals for the development of infrastructure items. Local plans are to be consistent with the development guide and sections 473.175 and 473.858 give the Metropolitan Council authority to review local plans for that consistency. In simple, easy -to -understand terms these legal requirements mean that Lino Lakes is not an island into itself. It is part of a larger metropolitan region and as a result certain goals established for that larger area must be part of the local plan. This is especially true for infrastructure items including sanitary sewer, water drainage and retention devices, and roads. This 1990 comprehensive plan amendment attempts to meet the requirements of state law, to incorporate the plans and policies of regional operating agencies into the city's plan, and to provide locally determined goals and policies for the city's decision -makers in resolving land planning issues. Process This comprehensive plan amendment is not the result of an orderly, structured attempt to revise the city's 1987 plan. There was no subcommittee, there wasn't a cadre of planning and engineering professionals, and there wasn't a determined effort to produce a comprehensive plan revision. This plan amendment is the result of changed circumstances and the city's reaction to them over the last four years. Page 1 ko The 1987 plan was prepared under different conditions. Residential development, for example had historically been stable with only a slight increase. In addition there was no serious consideration of large scale commercial and industrial development. In fact the main issue of the 1987 plan was matching residential development in rural areas with proper rural development standards. There is some irony in that the copier fluid was hardly bonded to the paper before outside circumstances changed Lino Lakes once and forever. In particular 1987 was the year of the Metropolitan area physically armied in Lino Lakes. Beginning in August of that year, large numbers of land developers and residential builders began making visits to Lino Lakes' City Hall. Inquiries were made regarding land and sewer availability. Questions of zoning, sewer costs, and land ownership were fielded by the city's staff. And, there was enough interest from the builders and developers to invalue the building official, administration, clerk, planner, and consulting engineer. There had never been anything like it before and this interest in the city continues today. By December of 1987 it became clear to the city's elected and 1114� appointed officials that the 1987 plan did not provide the guide necessary for the city's development. The "old" plan addressed many issues that had become irrelevant and did not touch on other options that suddenly have community issues. The men and women serving the city on its council, planning and zoning board, economic development commission, and park board were forced to confront issues without the benefit and luxury of study committees, task forces, and ad hoc committees for the study of whatever. In light of the city's changed conditions these people acted quickly and prudently, addressed the issues as they came and changed the city's policies and ordinances to meet community goals. Among the issues dealt with were: 1. Establishing closer relationships between the council and the advisory boards. This started in January of 1988 with day -long joint meetings and a bus -tour of Lino Lakes and adjacent communities. 2. Creation of the executive housing districts. Completed in the winter of 1988 this action amended the city's zoning map to reserve several high - amenity areas for construction of custom-built homes. 3. Protection of residential property values was also addressed early in 1988 as minimum housing Page 2 6 /""a standards were increased to assure new residents their investments in the city were safe. 4. Revision of the city's park dedication standards in 1988 was done to provide the land and money necessary to provide the city's new residents with open space they would need for both active and passive recreation. 5. Providing citizen input in the planning process was also an issue. In the spring of 1988 the park board and city council jointly commissioned a citizen survey asking city residents what they wanted for the city's future. The major results were: 1) development of a trail system, 2) commercial and industrial development to lower property taxes, 3) preservation of the city's natural environment, and 4) a sprucing -up of Lino Lakes and especially the entrances to the city. 6. In the summer of 1988 trail development in new residential areas was made mandatory by action of the park board and city council. 7. Earlier in 1988 the economic development committee began examining the city's supply of commercial and industrial land. The members found this issue had been neglected by the 1987 plan and they made recommendations for rezoning of residential areas located near both the I-35W and Lake Drive and the I-35E and County Road 14 interchanges. The city council started implementation of this work in late 1988 with the creation of more industrial and commercial land. 8. Metropolitan Urban Service Area configuration and size was addressed in the spring of 1989. The city's engineering consultant and the city planner along with some city council members began a series of neighborhood meetings. The primary topic of these informal sessions was the extension of sanitary sewer. Through the meetings, however, a wide -range of development issues was discussed. Based on these meetings the city council was able to change the Metropolitan Urban Service Area boundary in 1989 with almost no citizen opposition. The boundary changes greatly altered the MUSA shown in the 1987 plan as several landowners within the boundary wanted out and others located outside the boundary wanted to be included. This revised boundary as well as a redrafted sewer plan were submitted to the Metropolitan Council in late 1989. 9. Implementation of the city's revised goals, plans, Page 3 and ordinances (actually an implementation tool themselves) was started with the establishment of Builder's Day in 1988 and continued on an annual basis to the present. This informal meeting allows developers and city representatives to discuss new rules and regulations affecting construction in Lino Lakes. Implementation has also been started with promotional material prepared by the economic development committee, some of it particularly blunt in its description of the type of development the city will accept. This comprehensive plan amendment is the result of the nine actions just listed and other minor decisions of the city council, its advisory boards, and its citizens. The text is an effort to codify the work of the last four years and to give body to what has evolved as a de facto plan, i.e. here is a single document that provides the guidelines for community development in Lino Lakes. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES The following major changes are made in the 1990 comprehensive plan amendment. 1. The "Rural Expansion" land use is eliminated. Areas outside of the Metropolitan Urban Service Area are considered rural with either a ten or twenty acre minimum lot size. All areas within the MUSA boundary are considered urban and development is permitted only with full urban services. The 2 1/2 acre rural lot development opportunities are eliminated. 2. Criteria for the establishment of executive housing areas are established. 3. Policies are established limiting the extension of utilities, residential lot inventories, and requiring phasing of residential subdivisions. 4. Land needs for commercial and industrial uses are established and sites for this development are identified. 5. The need for a collector street connecting C.R. 14 and Birch Street is identified. 6. The sewer policy plan is revised showing a revised MUSA boundary. The new boundary reflects intentions of landowners regarding development of their property. Additional detail is provided for each of the six sewer service areas. Page 4 INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS Lino Lakes is a municipality incorporated in 1955 from the former Centerville Township. Covering an area of approximately 33.5 square miles, the city occupies the very southeast corner of Anoka'County. Landforms: There are two significant features in the Lino Lakes' landscape. First, as part of the Anoka Sand Plain (a glacial outwash plan formed by the--retreating-Keewatin' glacier) the topography is flat. Lying approximately 900 feet above sea level, the city has no area marked with hills or rapidly changing elevations. The greatest change in elevation probably is adjacent to the drained Cedar Lake. Here adjacent to the former shore, elevations changes of nearly 25 feet are found. A similar area is found on the north shore of Reshanau Lake but for all practical purposes the city is "flat as a pancake." The second significant topographical feature in Lino Lakes is the extensive lake and wetland area. The city has 2,863 acres of wetlands and 3105 acres of lakes, giving a total of almost six square miles of water. In terms of aesthetics its a good thing the water is in the city. Without the wetlands and the resulting wooded shorelands the city would look like the drier part of Sherburne County - no amenities what -so -ever. These amenities have not gone unnoticed. Anoka County condemned 2621 acres of land for a passive regional park in the early 19601s. In addition home buyers looking for high - amenity settings have located adjacent to Reshanau Lake and in the southeast corner of the city between Bald Eagle Lake and Otter Lake. On the negative side the wetlands make the extension of utilities and roadways difficult and expensive. In time maintenance cost will also be higher than the norm because of water problems, in particular the water will cause inflow and infiltration of water into the sewer system and break-up of asphalt roads. Vegetation: Historically the shallow lake beds have provided a smorgasbord of food for native Americans and for a large animal population. While there has been a considerable amount of sedimentation of the lake beds since European settlement, the local wildlife population remains high - aimost to the nuisance level in the case of deer. Away from the wet soils extensive stands of oak can be found especially red oak. Unfortunately oak wilt currently threatens these stands. Ironically the sandy soils on which the oaks thrive are of limited value for agriculture. This Page 5 fact probably saved some of the large oak stands and adds to the current perception of Lino Lakes as a high amenity area. Stands of willow, aspen, and birch are found adjacent to the wetlands on the higher organic content soils. In more recent times plantings of Norway pine have been made by recent and current residents, adding some winter color. The city's densely settled areas have evolved into the usual "urban forest" with plantings as diverse as Black. -Hills spruce, Kentucky coffee trees, and mock orange. Transportation: For all practical purposes city residents are entirely dependent on auto and truck transportation. However, located in the northwest corner of the city is the Lino Air Park. This unique development has single-family homes adjacent to a sod landing -strip. Presently the development is not completed and several lots remain to be developed. In addition a seaplane base is located on the west shore of Rice Lake. It should also be added that Metropolitan Transit Commission bus service has been extended to the city. Service is available to the correctional facility located just north of I-35W and west of Lake Drive. Service to commuter lots is also provided. For the most part though buses are not used and the service provided is more for political reasons than rider demand. Now to the cars and trucks. Lino Lakes has the enviable position of being served by two freeways. Interstate 35W provides direct access to Minneapolis and I-35E gives access to St. Paul and suburbs. Travel times to both downtown areas. is about 15-18 minutes. In the recently completed citizens' survey this quick access to other parts of the seven county metropolitan area was identified by Lino Lakes residents as one of the benefits of living in the city. Access ranked second behind only aesthetic appearance. one weakness of the interstate system though is the lack of a connection between the two freeways, i.e. there's no way to get from I-35W to I-35E south of Forest Lake save the round- about C.R. 14 through Centerville. Other freeway needs include the need for diamond exchanges at 80th Street and I- 35E and at Main Street and I-35W. The latter would provide direct access to the 2700 acre regional park. The former would be the start of the northern link and would provide access to the northeast corner of the city. Development: While most other cities in the Metropolitan Area have experienced very cyclical residential growth, and most recently have experienced a downtown, Lino Lakes has a history of steadily increasing residential development.

At one time 18 developers were considering subdivisions for different parcels of land with combined area of almost 600 acres. Obviously development this rapid could lead to financial problems for Lino Lakes (and the developers) if there were a serious financial down turn. Development policies regarding accessibility to sewer, lot inventory, and market value of housing is needed. Commercial and industrial development has been much slower in coming to Lino Lakes. Building permits issued for this use over the past four years has primarily been a reflection of local businesses expanding, e.g. A -Well, and Arndt Construction. More recently proposals for larger scale development have been received that would place retail developments at I-35W and Lake Drive and T.H. 49 and Lake Drive. A 21,000 square foot strip mall has been approved as a redevelopment project at the corner of Lake Drive and Main Street. Still though Page 7 r'r, little commercial or industrial construction has been completed in the city. Results of this lack of activity include: 1. Limited local shopping opportunity. 2. Poor opportunity for local employment especially for high school students. 3. Low tax base with residential property bearing the local tax burden. Population Projections: Lino Lakes needs to continue its policy of controlled growth. In looking at single-family construction a limit of 200 new sewered lots annually will provide the following population totals: Year Projected City Population 1990 - 2010 Households Population/HR Population 1990 2793 3.26 9105 1995 3843 3.17 12182 2000 4893 3.07 15022 *, 2005 5943 2.97 17651 2010 6993 2.87 20070 There is a considerable amount of feeling in Lino Lakes that with more sewer availability and capacity the 200 single- family dwellings projected each year could easily be exceeded. The city should carefully monitor its lot inventories and be in a position to either increase the total number of lots available or to take steps to limit further the number of additional lots going through the subdivision process. Multiple -Family Housing Opportunities: Lino Lakes contracted with Maxfield Research Associates to complete a housing analysis early in 1989. The Maxfield people projected a market of 150 to 200 units of multifamily could be supported during the 19901s. They saw need for a project of moderate size (30 to 40 miles) to meet demand for rental units. In addition a definite need for townhomes was seen by Maxfield. The townhomes could be utilized by singles, couples, and retired persons. Recommended by Maxfield was a 46 to 60 unit project with contemporary one and two-story units, probably in the $60,000 to 190,000 price range. Sites near the city's freeways were recommended as best for this housing. Manufactured and Mobile Homes: Presently state law prohibits Page 8 h discrimination against manufactured housing. There is manufactured housing in Lino Lakes and these dwellings are found in Rice Lake Estates and in Shenandoah 3rd Addition. In both instances the manufactured housing has the appearance of traditional stick -built houses. The total number of these dwellings is less than 100. Lino Lakes has a specific zoning district for manufactured housing. The district has been removed however from the draft zoning ordinance by the city's planning. agency and final city council action is pending at this time. The zoning district was used once with poor results and the owner -developer asked for a rezoning to a planned unit development district. The city's experience shows the best course of action is to integrate manufactured and stick -built housing provided all minimum standards are met. There is one mobile home park in Lino Lakes. It is located on the T.H. 49 in the very southwest corner of the city and has approximately 70 lots. Most of Lino Lakes is served by the Centennial School District. The number of mobile homes in that district (including Circle Pines, Lexington, and part of Blaine) approaches a total of 1500. The school district quite simply needs more tax base and fewer students. The tax levy of the school has reached the point where brokers are finding difficulty in selling real estate within district boundaries. If there were even a place where "tax base planning" was beneficial it's in the Centennial School District. Because of this tax situation expansion of mobile home parks (and other land uses returning relatively small amounts of property tax dollars) should not be permitted. Property Taxes: For the 20 year period covered by the 1960's and 1970's there were a lot of bad things said about tax base planning. There is probably even some case law where zoning decisions of local governments were overturned because the actions were "exclusionary" or based simply on permitting whatever land use returned the most in property taxes and disregarding other property rights. Presently the Minneapolis Citizens League has determined that owners of an average 180,000 dwelling in Lino Lakes would pay the ninth highest property taxes of all the cities and townships they surveyed in the seven county metropolitan area. There are several reasons for this. First, the wetlands, lakes, regional park, and extensive freeway system (518 acres by itself) use 42 per cent of Lino Lakes land area. This unproductive land - in terms of tax payments - makes the provision of city services expensive. For example in cities such as Fridley and Robbinsdale and Richfield the snowplow and police can serve 1,000 residents much quicker than in Lino Lakes. The barriers of two freeways, and a 2700 acre Page 9 park simply are not present in those cities. And on a micro - scale those other cities have dense development with few if any wetlands separating the developed areas. A second reason for high property taxes in Lino Lakes is the abundance of large -lot single-family developments. In the west part of the city there are approximately 1000 acres of one and 2 1/2 acre lot subdivisions. The density is so low that costs for snowplowing and .police protection are abnormally high and are reflected in higher property taxes for each individual dwelling. In the east part of Lino Lakes there are about 200 acres of large lot development. A third reason for high property taxes is the lack of a commercial and industrial base. Minnesota's property tax laws are such that residences pay relatively low taxes. Commercial and industrial structures on the other hand can contribute as high as five per cent of their market value and annual property -tax payment. Residential rates by comparison presently start at about one per cent of the first $68,000 of value. A fourth reason for the city's high property taxes concern the school districts and their level of services and tax base. As discussed in the section on Manufactured and mobile homes, the Centennial School District has a very large number of residences from which it gets little tax money. Again, the result is the taxes lived against the available tax base become relatively high. The hidden problem with this situation is that little money is available for improving services or infrastructure. Parks cannot be expanded, recreation programs are lost in the budget scramble to basic services such as police and fire, and programs for periodic road and utility improvements never get started. In Lino Lakes the issue of property taxes and tax base planning are so overriding that they must be considered in land use planning. Commercial and Industrial Land Use Needs: In September of 1987 the Metropolitan Council published the results of its study of land use in the Twin Cities Area. The people at the council had studied aerial photos and after some field checking determined their measurements of different land uses were within 1.5 percent of being totally accurate. That's not bad. The Metro Council study gave totals for several different land uses for each minor civil division in the area. Totals were also provided for combinations of places such as "inner ring suburbs". As a point of information Lino Lakes is in what was defined as the "developing ring suburbs." Page 10 J`t Following are two tables that compare Lino Lakes to other places. the first table compares the city to its neighbors. From that we can see: 1. With the exception of Blaine NONE of the city's neighbors has more than 2.5 percent of its total area in industrial land uses. In fact, there is little industrial land in the whole northeast sector. 2. With the exception of Lexington, no place has more than 2.0 percent of its land in commercial uses. 3. Lino Lakes, Columbus Township (Carlos Avery), and White Bear Township (Ramsey County) have extraordinary amounts of land in public and park categories. 4. With the exception of Blaine there is little industrial development in this area, i.e. the possibility of spin-off industrial development is low. 5. Please note, Blaine with almost 30,000 population, a land area almost identical to Lino Lakes, and a large shopping mall has only 1.6 percent of its total area in commercial land uses. 6. With regard to Blaine, also note that more than ten percent of its area is used for industrial purposes. This reflects a policy decision of that city to emphasize industrial development. Historically it has used tax increment financing and Industrial Development Bonds to help this activity.

Some places have a few acres in the land use categories but not enough to reach 0.1 percent of the total. ** Includes highways, lakes and streams, public and park land. The second table compares Lino Lakes land uses to other developed cities. From that table use can make the generalizations: 1. Developed cities have relatively more land in commercial and industrial land uses than do developing cities. 2. Roseville and New Hope, two cities that have emphasized industrial uses have more than 11 percent of their land areas in industrial uses. 3. Population base is necessary to support commercial activity, i.e. you don't see stores sitting out in the middle of the county waiting for subdivisions.

From the examples we've seen here commercial and industrial development doesn't happen spontaneously -as evidenced by the fact that some places have very little of either. On the positive side some of the cities with hivher amounts of commercial and industrial land have strong financial situations, are able to finance high land city services, and have relatively low tax rates. Industrial promotion activities would seem justified for Lino Lakes. The unbuildable Land Situation: Lino Lakes is a unique city in at least one measure. Of the city's 21,337 acres only about 43 per cent of 12,230 acres is buildable. As the acreage summary table indicates wetlands, parks, lakes and freeways take more than two -fifths of the city's total area. The table, which shows the land areas of the various sewer service districts as well as other areas where sewer extension is not practical, shows a second significant fact. Of the 12,340 buildable acres one-third is already gone -used up. As noted earlier more than 1,000 acres of the developed land area have been used for large lot single-family subdivisions. At this point in time slightly more than half of all dwellings in the city are on large lots with no public utilities. While this may provide some residents with "elbow room" it certainly is a burden on the city in providing services. When 8,000 acres of unbuildable land is added to the equation Lino Lakes ability to provide reasonable city services (at a reasonable cost) is severely strained. Lino Lakes needs to get as much tax return as possible from its remaining developable land. To not do so is to test its viability as a city.

The final analysis of the survey was more than 50 pages long, a summary however would reveal the following: *The best things about Lino Lakes were the city's open spaces, small town and rural atmosphere, peace and quiet, trees, and good locations within the Twin Cities Metropolitan area. *On the needs side of the ledger were lower taxes (no surprise) more development of major retail establishments, family restaurants and a city clean-up. Page 14 With regard to park facilities and recreation programs the survey found: *The five most highly desired additions to park facilities and activities were: 1. Hiking/walking/jogging trails 2. Bicycling trails 3. Youth recreation programs 4. Teen recreation programs 5. Restrooms in parks *The five least desired additions to park facilities and activities were: 1. Indoor ice arena 2. Outdoor swimming pool 3. Indoor swimming pool 4. Snowmobile trails (tie) 5. Exercise courses Urban Use of the Land: Can Lino Lakes take advantage of its environment without destroying it? What leads to -residential satisfaction? Similar questions were recently asked in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and their resolution by researcher Rachel Kaplan can be of benefit to Lino Lakes. Kaplan tried to determine how the immediate physical environment affected neighborhood satisfaction. What she found was unexpected. The overall amount of open space was not the key to residential satisfaction and greenbelts and large mowed urban parks did little in improving neighborhood satisfaction. The amenities really valued were small "pieces of nature." Kaplan found: Rather than large open areas and mowed expanses, residents expressed a desire and a delight in smaller areas that have trees and shrubs. The influence of the pieces of nature was such that even parking lots could be perceived by local residents as positive neighborhood influences if they included small areas of trees and shrubs. ,•� To provide for residential satisfaction Kaplan argued that Page 15 preserving small natural areas at the time of construction is of paramount importance. This is not to downplay the importance of landscaping sites with transplants as Kaplan notes that birds can sing in small as well as large trees. Kaplan's main finding, however, is that the arrangement of the pieces of nature is the most important consideration in providing neighborhood satisfaction. In particular, Kaplan's research showed that: By distributing open space in closer proximity to the residential clusters and by making the clusters smaller, the existing open space can be made to serve residents far more effectively. Certainly the city's natural environment provides it with opportunities not available to other places. However these opportunities can be lost without considerable attention to site planning and to those city ordinances dealing with amenities. As Kaplan's Ann Arbor research showed place satisfaction was achieved with skilled use of the natural environment. Again, in those instances where the open space was unusable or where the parking lots were sterile, residents were not as content. i,.N Lino Lakes will probably become one of the fastest growing communities in the metro area's north side. To -guarantee future neighborhood satisfaction and the proper use of Kaplan's pieces of nature the city should continue to review development plan and subdivisions with goals of preserving wetlands and wooded areas - even if only "pieces of nature." GOALS Goals are very broad and general statements meant only to guide the planning process. Policies are more definitive position statements meant to further direct city activities that will lead to implementation of the adopted goals. Policies can become important guidelines in routine matters as they provide direction in such daily tasks as plat and site plan review. They also are useful where ordinances and other implementation tools are unclear or open to interpretation. Standards are even more specific statements of actions to be undertaken by the city. Standards also are the result of deliberations choosing from many different options that might implement the goals and policies. Actually then standards constitute a list of detailed recommendations for action. They are the final quantifiable product of the planning process. In the section outlining the plan, the "standards" are called "recommendations." This brief chapter of the plan is meant to list the goals for �Y Page 16 W 16*\. land use and community facilities activities. The policies and recommendations - those things that constitute the plan - are found in the chapter titled "Plan Recommendation." Housing and Residential Land Uses: As was noted in the inventory and analysis, the resident questionnaire noted a strong wish to maintain the city's environment and open and natural atmosphere. The natural environment was a strong factor in attracting -persons to the city and an attribute they wish preserved. GOAL 1: To protect and maintain environmental amenities in residential areas. Other post -World War II suburban communities are now concerned about maintenance of their housing stocks. In many instances, the dwellings were all built about the same time and will soon need major repair. Large areas of deteriorating housing can have a negative effect on both a city and its residents. GOAL 2: To have quality housing developments able to maintain long term residential property value. With its neighbors exhausting their land availability, Lino Lakes has become the focus of attention for many developers and builders looking for buildable lots. GOAL 3: To increase Lino Lakes' supply of executive homes providing the city a good mix of residential housing opportunities. GOAL 4: To maintain and promote home designs that show better curb appeal especially with "general market" housing. The sudden interest in developing land in Lino Lakes can lead to euphoria and an over -extension of utilities. GOAL 5: To limit lot inventories to a total that can be absorbed into the market within a two year period, with a one year supply in planning stages. Presently Lino Lakes has only four units of multiple -housing. With a population soon approaching 10,000 persons, this situation excludes persons wishing to reside in rental housing or housing requiring limited maintenance. GOAL 6: To promote development of limited numbers of multiple -family residences. Page 17 /'\ The large lots measuring between one and five acres have been voracious users of scarce buildable land. They have cost the city future tax base (by using extraordinary amounts of land) and have cost the city relatively large amounts for city services. GOAL 7: To create no additional unsewered lots with an area less than ten acres. Commercial and Industrial Land Uses: -The city presently has only limited commercial and industrial development. This results in: 1) few local job opportunities, 2) longer shopping trips, and 3) high residential property taxes. To rectify this situation Lino Lakes has created the Economic Development Committee. GOAL 8: To actively pursue commercial development adjacent to the city's two diamond interchanges. GOAL 9: To reserve adequate amounts of commercial and industrial land for both present and future development. GOAL 10: To permit only quality, well planned, and well designed development within the commercial and industrial areas. The city has the vestiges of a commercial strip adjacent to Lake Drive. The strip also has some industrial land uses. GOAL 11: To redevelop the Lake Drive commercial and industrial area from I-35W to the city's north corporate line. PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS A very common weakness of land use plans is generality. The text becomes so vague that even after reviewing a plan the reader is left with little idea about what real victims have been prescribed. For example, it's common to find goals or policies that read something like "save the environment" or "protect the environment". What does this mean? Obviously it could mean any of a hundred things. Actually Lino Lakes has been guilty of this in the past - not to worry though, the city is in Vood company. In its current plan amendment the first policy is: "Future community development shall take into account social, economic, and environmental opportunities and constrains in an effort to provide an optional arrangement of future land use activities." With this plan amendment the city of Lino Lakes wishes to adopt a plan that lists specific policies and recommendations Page 18 /"%k for the city to follow in guiding development over the next several years. Following are the eleven goals presented earlier in the plan as well as policies guiding city actions on overall development strategy. In fact, the policies might very well be called strategies. Most important however are the "recommendations." These are the actual )obs or work tasks that must be completed to bring about implementation of this plan. Goal°1."To protect and maintain environmental- amenities -in residential areas. Policy 1A.

IMPLEMENTATION The first parts of this document provided an inventory and analysis of present and projected conditions within Lino Lakes. From this inventory 11 goals meant to direct future planning activities were developed. The third section of the document presented the plan using the goals to develop planning policies and most important 58 specific planning recommendations. This section represents the fourth and final step in the planning process - the establishment of specific steps to implement the recommendations from "the plan" section. Page 25 /'*114� PROCEDURES The first step in implementing the plan is to adopt it as an official policy of the city. This is the responsibility of the city council on recommendation from the design review board. The actual process for adopting the revised land use and community facilities plan is outlined in Minnesota Statutes and is as follows: 1. A public hearing on the plan must be held by the "planning agency." 2. The planning agency - in this case the planning commission - recommends the plan or revises the plan to the city council (M.S. 462, Subd. 2). 3. The city council has two options if it wishes to adopt the plan: a. Give the plan preliminary approval and submit it to the Metropolitan Council for its review. b. Give final approval contingent on Metropolitan Council review and approval. 4. The Metropolitan Council receives the plans "...to determine their compatibility with each other (other cities plans) and with metropolitan systems plans" (M.S. 473.175, Subd. 1). 5. The Metropolitan Council determines whether the plan constitutes a minor or major change within 10 days of receipt of the plan. a. A minor change allows the city to implement the plan within 10 days. b. A major change will be reviewed within 90 days. Implementation can be effective after determination of compatibility by the Metropolitan Council. 6. If the city council granted only preliminary approval before submittal to the Metropolitan Council it now considers final approval. After approval implementation can begin. With regard to actual implementation of the plan, Minnesota Statutes give Lino Lakes several methods of bringing the recommendations to reality. Shown below are seven categories of actions and which of the recommendations each can implement. Some plan recommendations are found in more than one category of action. Page 26 Recommendation To Action Be Implemented. Zoning Ordinance Revision: 1, 33, 37, 38, 42, 43, 48, 49, 51, 52, 54, Subdivision Ordinance Revision: 5, 28, 44 Other City Ordinance.Revision: 3, 47 Capital Improvement Program: 18, 23, 24, 30, 31, 35 Tax Increment Financing District: 17, 40 Administrative/Other Actions: 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 21, 25, 26, 27, 32, 33, 34, 36, 39, 41, 45, 46, 50, 53, 55, 56, 57, 58 Park Board 8, 12, 13, 15, 19, 20 Coordinate Implementation With 2, 27 Other Agencies And Units: Finally a work of caution. Lino Lakes is one of the fastest changing cities in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. Under general circumstances comprehensive plans are reviewed every five years and certainly this plan should be reviewed in 1995. However, if major changes occur before 1995, e.g. completion of a major highway improvement, the plan should be reviewed sooner. No greater disservice can be given to a city by its planning process than its failure to continuously monitor community -wide change and, in turn, to position the city to benefit most from that change. Because society itself is not static, planning must be a continuing process.
