WBL Memo <br />•Summary of overall methodology used in regional/local population forecasts. <br />•Reference to legislatively directed White Bear Lake Comprehensive Plan Group – deadline of June 30, 2027 for <br />completion of a long term plan with supporting analysis, to convert some or all wells to surface water. <br />•Policy positions: <br />•“Until the White Bear Lake Area Work Group concludes and there is an identified response to legislative <br />direction and judicial decisions, the Met Council determined it prudent to withhold its consent of additional <br />growth in local jurisdictions affected by the White Bear Lake Area Court decision until the Council is assured <br />additional growth does not conflict with Court orders that cities must abide.” <br />•“as it relates to requesting an upward adjustment to forecasts for growth in this area prior to completion of the <br />White Bear Lake Area Comprehensive Plan being prepared with assistance from the legislatively identified <br />Work Group Members and modification of the court order, communities should be aware that the Council will <br />only consider forecast adjustments in the future, not during System Statements review. If a request is made, it <br />may only be considered after modification of the court order, a change in local conditions, or a solution to <br />water supply constraints are determined and implemented.”
