"designation." The latter suggests land use policy rather than a description of existing land use. The Plan in fact uses the term "designation" in Chapter 31 Land Use Plan. You may wish to consider consistent use of the term "category". Alternatively, you could simply refer to "existing land use". You may also wish to consider relocating references to the 2030 Land Use Plan, including the map on page 36 (Map 2-5). This is potentially confusing to the reader, as it addresses current land use policy (from 2030 Plan) rather than either existing land uses or proposed new policy for the 2040 Plan. Consider providing this map as background context in the following chapter. City Response: Noted. Summary of Advisory Comment: In the Residential section in the second column, the introductory paragraph refers to the "existing land use plan". The reader may think that this references the land use plan in the Hugo 2030 Comprehensive Plan. City Response: Noted. Summary of Advisory Comment: Page 37, Zoning District Overview: You may wish to consider relocating this content from the Community Background chapter to either the Land Use Plan chapter or the Implementation Chapter. City Response: The location of the content is intentional. It will remain in this location. Summary of Advisory Comment: Page 50, Land, Use, Managing Growth: The second paragraph under Diversified Rural appears to be misplaced. It relates more to the previous section titled Emerging Suburban. City Response: Noted. Summary of Advisory Comment: Page 158, Summary of Regional Strategies: The last sentence of the last paragraph addresses planned regional transit investments in Hugo. This statement appears to be misplaced. It relates to the previous paragraph, as well as to a similar paragraph on page 50. City Response: Noted. Comments provided on Housing (Tara Beard, 651-602-1051) Housing: Existing Housing Summary of Comments for Completeness: The narrative analysis of existing housing needs is not sufficient. While the Plan does discuss much of the existing housing data, comprehensive plans that are consistent with Council policy will clearly identify their existing housing needs and prioritize them. Ideally, these priorities would be included in an implementation table and connected to the use of available tools. To be consistent, all housing tools described will be linked clearly and consistently to stated housing needs. City Response: Staff reviewed the text and clarified references to our adopted policy. Summary of Comments for Completeness: Some existing housing data requirements are missing, and others are not provided in numerical values. These include the following: • The number of publicly subsidized housing units, including number of senior affordable and units affordable to people with disabilities is missing. While the narrative allows one to back into the numbers of affordable senior housing and notes no other subsidized housing exists, this should be provided in a clear, numerical way. • The percent of owner -occupied and rental housing data are provided, but numerical values should be shown.
