CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 98-XX
REQUESTING THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL GRANT A
FOUR MONTH EXTENSION OF THE DECEMBER 31, 1998
DUE DATE FOR REVIEW OF THE CITY OF PRIOR LAKE
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR CONSISTENCY WITH
AMENDED METROPOLITAN COUNCIL POLICY PLANS
Historv: Minnesota Statutes require all that cities and counties in the
metropolitan area submit a 2020 Comprehensive Plan to the
Metropolitan Council by December 31, 1998. The City of Prior Lake
adopted the 2010 Comprehensive Plan in 1996. However, this plan
must be updated to comply with the State Statute.
Current Circumstances: Most of the City of Prior Lake 2010
Comprehensive Plan is consistent with the Metropolitan Council
Regional Growth Plan. There are some components of this plan which
must be updated to reflect the 2020 planning period. These include the
transportation, sanitary sewer, and some of the land use components of
the plan.
The City has contracted with a consultant to update the transportation
component of the plan, and is considering other consultants for the
sewer component ofthe plan. The remaining components will be
updated by City staff. Other work priorities, including the new zoning
ordinance, have not allowed staff to concentrate on the Comprehensive
Plan until recently. It is therefore necessary to request this extension.
The Issues: The attached resolution is the City's formal request to the
Metropolitan Council for an extension. Due to the volume of plans
which will be submitted in December, the Metropolitan Council staff
has indicated they will have no objection to this extension.
Conclusion: The requested extension will allow the City staff the
time to properly update the Comprehensive Plan, and to hold the
