15. Do the Metropolitan Council and a municipality negotiate and set housing goals annually? <br /> • No. The Act envisions negotiated housing goals as a one-time process.

The Metropolitan Council will propose affordable and life-cycle housing goals that <br /> encourage your municipality to address key housing benchmarks. <br /> 16. After the Metropolitan Council and a municipality negotiate and set affordable and life- <br /> cycle housing goals for the municipality,what happens next? <br /> The municipality must prepare an action plan that describes how it intends to meet its negotiated goals. <br /> The municipality has until June 30, 1996, to submit the action plan to the Metropolitan Council. <br /> 17. Does the Metropolitan Council have to approve the action plan? <br /> The Act does not require the Metropolitan Council to approve a municipality's action plan. However, <br /> the Metropolitan Council will comment on the plan's content in relation to the negotiated goals that <br /> have been established, and it will attempt to identify potential resources available to the municipality to <br /> help the municipality meet its negotiated affordable and life-cycle housing goals. <br /> • <br /> 18. What should the action plan look like? <br /> The suggested format will be modeled after the one used for the housing element of your comprehensive <br /> plan. <br />
