Mayor Facilitates PUBLIC POLICY STATEMENT N/A SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUESTED: City Staff and the Planning Commission are requesting the City Council consider a request by 3 resident petitioners to have their properties be added to the Village MUSA area in order to participate in the City’s Old Village Phase 2 Street and Utility Improvement Project. Staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval with the following motion: “Move to approve Resolution 2016-32 to amend the City’s Comprehensive Wastewater Facilities Plan, adding 3 residential parcels, PID #s 24.029.21.22.0019, 24.029.21.22.0020 and 24.029.21.22.0021, to the Village MUSA area”. BACKGROUND AND STAFF REPORT: The Planning Commission held a public hearing on April 11, 2016 and recommended approval to add the 3 parcels to the Village MUSA area. Stephen Johnson, one of the petitioner’s was in attendance to speak in favor. Prior to approval by the City, City Staff intends to have all three petitioners sign a waiver, waiving their rights to contest future assessments related to the project. The waiver is presently being reviewed by the City Attorney, and signed waivers are anticipated prior to the City Council meeting on April 19, 2016. Comprehensive Plan amendments require a 4/5 vote by the City Council. The Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment is also subject to the Metropolitan Council’s review and approval. The Metropolitan Council has reviewed the proposal and had waived adjacent jurisdictional review. Staff anticipates Metropolitan Council approval as this is a minor amendment. The subsequent Comprehensive Plan Amendment for properties within the MUSA was pulled from the agenda pending further clarification from the Metropolitan Council regarding proper land use designations for properties within the MUSA. RECOMMENDATION: City Staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval of the Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment with the following motion: “Move to approve Resolution 2016-32 to amend the City’s Comprehensive Wastewater Facilities Plan, adding 3 residential parcels, PID #s 24.029.21.22.0019, 24.029.21.22.0020 and 24.029.21.22.0021, to the Village MUSA area”.
