4. At the June 12 Meeting the Committee discussed the Sioux
Communities request to extend sewer and water service to
their Reservation. No action was taken at the Meeting.
The Planning Commission conducted a Public Hearing on the
issue and the follc~ing recommendation resulted from the
Hearing:
Extending trunk sewer & water to the reservation for the
120 acres as per attached map. Any additional
reservation land receiving service will require an
amendment hearing.
That such utility service will be in the best interest
of the MSC by providing for additional employment
opportunities, more and better housing and increase the
general quality of life on the reservation.
That 85 acres (per attached map) be recognized as
tributary to the trunk sewer with no oversizing
required.
e
The Metropolitan Council recognizes the reservation flow
as separate with a separate allocation if necessary.
Prior Lake accept both trunks once installed and
maintain the syst~n.
The MSC develop a 5 year Capital Improvement Pr.grin and
a Comprehensive Plan to head off any future potential
conflicts with respect to land use and urban services.
The Council of Prior Lake enter into a contract as to
who has what responsibility with respect to any fees for
utilities, inspections and access charges.
The Committee should consider taking a position on the use of
the sewer and water for commercial/industrial purposes.
Current plans of the Sioux Community are vague, but all
indications are that their five year plan includes a minority
business center, Industrial Park development, and a light
manufacturing plant.
Information and details on the status of this Project will be
thoroughly discussed at the Meeting. Enclosed is a copy of
the DeveloI~ent Report for the Cxmumazity prepared by the
Community' s Consulting Engineers.
The Industrial Park on the Southeast side of town has been an

generated on this property including: preparation of tax
increnent documents; formation of an Ad Hoc Committee;
preliminary engineering information; and a variety of
meetings and discussions with the property owners.
Staff is interested in exploring a proposal to utilize the
services of a Development Coordinator. Enclosed is a copy of
a Proposal from AEA Development Services. AEA is the
Development Coordinator for the Loring Park Project in
