If the City does not act to designate acres to be reguided at the second density range by April 30, 2011, the second density range automatically will be established for all of the residential land in the 2010-2015 staging area of the 2030 MUSA.

The plan update that is the subject of this extension is not the decennial plan review and update the City must complete by December 31, 2008 pursuant to Minnesota Statutes section 473.864, subdivision 2. (k) The City must plan for a total citywide population of 24,000 as outlined in the Memorandurn of Understanding and land use planning to accommodate that total population must be timely and consistent with density standards and other provisions of the metropolitan system plans. The City may exercise its judgment about where and how the 24,000 population will be accommodated within the City consistent with the Memorandum of Understanding but the City's plan update must reflect the City's obligation to produce and maintain an average residential density of at least three (3) dwelling units per acre in all sewered areas of the City.

(n) Conditions beyond the control of the City, such as a severe reduction in housing construction in the region's Developing Communities, due to a protracted downturn in the economy or a long -tern recession, may adversely affect the City's ability to meet its population, household and REC conmutments. Accordingly, if the City has been unable to meet its population, household, and REC cornnnitnents because of adverse economic conditions, the City may petition the Metropolitan Council for a modification of the growth staging components of the plan and the conditions and requirements of this time extension if, after the end of a five-year staging period, the following circumstance is verified: the City's production of population, households and RECs, as a percentage of the population, household and REC commitments stated in the growth staging table, equals or exceeds the region's Developing Communities' production of population, households and RECs as a percentage of the region's Developing Communities' forecasted population, households and RECs. If the City's right to petition is triggered and the City petitions the Metropolitan Council for modifications, the Metropolitan Council will not unreasonably deny the petition.
