the village green. The Planning Commission reviewed the design modifications for the detached townhomes at their February 23, 1998 meeting and recommended approval. M/S/P Dunn/Hunt — to approve the design modifications for the detached townhomes at the Fields of St. Croix as requested by Mark Youngdahl. (Motion passed 5-0). D. I-94 Corridor Study — Set meeting date City Planner Terwedo would like to complete the I-94 Plan, but felt there is an issue regarding the capacity of the existing WONE interceptor serving Lake Elmo. There are urban services for the United Properties site, but there is some question as to whether there will be urban services beyond the existing MUSA. If the City chooses the Existing Land Use option, there will be no need to request additional services. If the Economic Development option is chosen, the City may need to request additional capacity either from the WONE interceptor or from the Cottage Grove Ravine interceptor. If the Livable Communities option is chosen, the City would need to require services from the Cottage Grove interceptor. An urban service is a system of a land use plan and therefore it is important that the City make this decision soon. The Planner asked the Council to set a date for an I-94 Task Force meeting to review the responses of the completed questionnaires distributed at the November workshop. M/S/P Hunt/Johnston - to schedule an I-94 Corridor Study meeting for Tuesday, March 31, 1998, 6 p.m., City Hall to review the responses of the questionnaire distributed at the November workshop and request that the I-94 Task Force make a recommendation to the Planning Commission and the City Council on a preferred land use alternative, as presented or amended.
