II. ORGANIZATION PLANS AFFECTING THE CITY OF LINO LAKES
The four most immediate entities with Water Management Plans affecting the City of Lino Lakes are
Anoka County, the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD), the Vadnais Lake Area Water
Management Organization (VLAWMO), and the Metropolitan Council (METCO).
A. ANOKA COUNTY
Anoka County has its own County Comprehensive Water Plan that was completed in
accordance with Chapter 103B of the Minnesota Statutes. County Comprehensive Water Plans
must be updated once every five to ten years in accordance with current Minnesota legislative
requirements. The County plans must be consistent with the Watershed District Plan covering
the same geographic area.
In addition to the Comprehensive Water Plan, Anoka County also has specific programs and
policies relating to drainage issues on its highway systems and county ditch systems. It also
has established shore land zoning ordinances for the control of development activity along the
shorelines of lakes and the banks of major rivers. These zoning ordinances also regulate
established 100 -year flood plains.
B. RCWD
Late in 1970, Ramsey, Anoka, and Washington Counties formally petitioned the Water
Resources Board (WRB) to establish a Watershed District which, after public hearings, was
established as the RCWD in 1972. In late 1974, the District prepared an overall Water
Management Plan which served as the framework for the subsequent 18 years. Under the
Metropolitan Surface Water Management Act (Chapter 509, Laws of 1982, M.S. 103B)
requirements were set for preparing watershed management plans within the Twin Cities
Metropolitan Area.
On October 22, 1997, the RCWD adopted a plan that conformed with these requirements.
That Plan adopted objectives and policies in 13 sub -watershed areas of concern. The RCWD
has six objectives: 1) Minimize Public Expenditure to Control Runoff, 2) Improve Water
Quality, 3) Prevent Flooding and Erosion, 4) Promote Groundwater Recharge, 5) Protect and
Enhance Fish and Wildlife Habitat, and 6) Recreation. In June of 2000, RCWD updated and
extended its implementation programs through 2005.
C. VLAWMO
VLAWMO was formed in 1983 through a Joint Powers Agreement ratified by the seven local
units of government. The organization was formed to comply with the Metropolitan Surface
Water Management Act. The VLAWMO originally adopted its watershed management plan in
1987. The current (second -generation) plan was approved by the Minnesota Board of Water
and Soil Resources and adopted by VLAWMO in 1997. This plan sets forth goals, policies,
management strategies, and implementation criteria for the watershed.
VLAWMO has been authorized by the Minnesota State Legislature to act as the local
government unit responsible for administering the Wetland Conservation Act.

D. METCO
Minnesota Statutes Section 473.145 required METCO to prepare a comprehensive
development guide for the metropolitan area. As partial fulfillment of this requirement,
METCO has prepared a Water Resources Management Policy Plan that complies with
Minnesota Statutes Sections 473.145, 146, 156, and 157. The plan supersedes the Council's
three former Water Resources Management Plans: Part 1, Wastewater Treatment and Handling
Policy Plan (dated December 1988); Part 2, Surface Water Management: Nonpoint Source
Pollution and Stormwater Runoff (dated September 1982); and Part 3, Water Resources
Management Development Guide/Policy Plan (dated May 1986) dealing with water use and
availability.
Legislation related to metropolitan land use planning (Minnesota Statutes Section 473.858)
suggests that comprehensive plans of local governments cannot be in conflict with the
metropolitan systems plans. The metropolitan systems plans are defined in Minnesota Statutes
Section 473.852, Subdivision 8, as "the airports and transportation portions of the metropolitan
development guide, the policy plans, and capital budgets for metropolitan wastewater service,
transportation, and regional recreation open space." Their plan for metropolitan wastewater
service includes the Water Resources Management Policy Plan.

must, at a minimum, meet the requirements for local plans in Minnesota Statutes,
Section 103B.235 and be in conformance with Watershed District, Management
Organization and Metropolitan Council plans. The City's "first generation" plan was

the City's Comprehensive Plan.
TKDA, the City's Engineer, has submitted a proposal to prepare the plan for a not to
exceed cost of $43,900. The project is proposed to be funded by the City's Surface
Water Management Fund. The City established Surface Water Management Charges
in 1992, in part, to cover the costs of local water management planning. It is
anticipated that a draft plan will be completed within 90 days of executing the proposal.
