Title

GRANTING A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT TO THE CITY’S 2030 SANITARY SEWER SERVICE AREA MAP.  CITY OF BLAINE.  (CASE FILE NO. 16-0057/TS)

 

Schedule of Actions

Planning Commission (Public Hearing)

01/10/17

City Council (Comp Plan Amendment)

02/02/17

 

Planning Commission Action

The Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the comprehensive plan amendment. There were no comments at the public hearing.

 

Background

The residents of Fox Court have requested that City sanitary sewer service be extended to serve their four (4) lots.  This area was included in the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) in the City’s 2030 Comprehensive Plan.  Included in the Comprehensive Plan is a Sanitary Sewer System map that was prepared in 2005.  This sewer map shows the Fox Ridge area outside of the MUSA, creating a discrepancy.  The Met Council conditioned its permit for the Fox Ridge sewer connection requiring that the map be changed and a Comprehensive Plan Amendment be applied for by the City.

 

This map change does not have any implications for other plan elements or planning documents associated with the Comprehensive Plan as this area had already been placed in to the MUSA.

 

Recommendation

By motion, approve the Resolution.
