City of Lake Elmo October 26, 1990 Page 2 ACTION NEEDED: I will meet with Larry Bohrer next week (October 29 - November 2) to prepare the required information The goals and policies for private septic systems (page 49) should be clarified to read that private package treatment systems for new development will not be allowed and only where existing systems have failed will the City allow properly designed private treatment system for multiple properties. ACTION NEEDED: I believe the City Council agrees with this position and the policy should be reworded. The Metro Staff questioned why the City's population projections were higher than their projects. Metro Council projects the year 2000 popu- lation as 6,600 and our plan (page 8 and 35) projects a 2000 population of 7,200. Also, they question the projected population shown by TAZ zones (page 35). ACTION NEEDED: This may be an issues that we agree to disagree on. On page 8 we state that part of the reason for a low projection by the Metro Council is that they predict a decrease in family size and an overall decrease in the growth rate of the entire Metropolitan area. They did not consider our RED land use designation and anticipated de- velopment in new areas of the City. The City does not wish to disagree or argue with the Metropolitan Council on this point. If development does not occur, that's fine. However, we believe our projections are more realistic based upon past building permit records and new land use designations. The projected population by TAZ zones reflect the new RED land use and anticipated growth. The following issues were raised relative to Map 12 (page 30A): 1. Street names are not legible. 2. Highway 36 should be labeled as a Principal Arterial. 3. County Road 10 and Inwood Avenue should both be labeled as Minor Arterials. 4. The map does not acknowledge or show the I-94 bridge crossing from Bielenberg Drive in Woodbury.
