Consideration of Resolution No. 08 -131, Authorizing
Distribution of Draft Comprehensive Plan Update to
Adjacent Governmental Jurisdictions for Review and
Comment
VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority
BACKGROUND:
Minnesota Statutes section 473.864 requires all metropolitan area units of government
to review and, if necessary, amend their entire comprehensive plans, fiscal devices,
and official controls at least once every ten years. This "decennial" review requirement
ensures that the comprehensive plans conform to metropolitan system plans and do not
conflict with or permit activities that conflict with metropolitan system plans. By statute,
plan updates and amendments must be completed by December 31, 2008.
The draft Comprehensive Plan document has been completed and reviewed by the
Comprehensive Plan Advisory Panel, Environmental Board, Park Board and Economic
Development Advisory Committee. The draft plan was distributed to the City Council on
September 2, 2008. The City's third "Open House" was held on September 4. The
Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing on September 10, 2008 and
recommended approval of the plan with some minor modifications. The City Council is
currently reviewing the plan.
Minnesota Statutes section 473.858, Subdivision 2, requires that local governmental
units submit their proposed plans to adjacent governmental units for review and
comment at least six months prior to submission of the plan the Metropolitan Council.
The City Council recently took action to request an extension of time to complete the
plan. The Metropolitan Council has extended the deadline to May 29, 2008.
Distribution of the draft plan, at this time, will allow for completion of the six month
review period prior to the extended deadline.
Distribution of the plan to adjacent jurisdictions does not preclude the City from making
modifications to the plans prior to the submittal to Metropolitan Council. Additionally,
changes to the plan do not require an additional six month review period for adjacent
jurisdictions.
