Page - 1 | 2015 SYSTEM STATEMENT – ARDEN HILLS INTRODUCTION <br />2015 SYSTEM STATEMENT FOR <br />CITY OF ARDEN HILLS <br />September 17, 2015 <br />Regional Development Plan Adoption <br />In May 2014, the Metropolitan Council adopted Thrive MSP 2040. Following adoption of Thrive, the <br />Council adopted the 2040 Transportation Policy Plan, the 2040 Regional Parks Policy Plan, the 2040 <br />Water Resources Policy Plan, and the 2040 Housing Policy Plan. The Metropolitan Council is now <br />issuing system statements pursuant to State statute. <br />Receipt of this system statement and the metropolitan system plans triggers a community’s obligation <br />to review and, as necessary, amend its comprehensive plan within the next three years, by the end of <br />2018. The complete text of Thrive MSP 2040 as well as complete copies of the recently adopted <br />metropolitan system and policy plans are available for viewing and downloading <br />at http://www.metrocouncil.org/Communities/Planning.aspx. Paper copies are available by calling the <br />Council’s Data Center at 651-602-1140. <br />System Statement Definition <br />Metropolitan system plans are long-range comprehensive plans for the regional systems – transit, <br />highways, and airports; wastewater services; and parks and open space – along with the capital <br />budgets for metropolitan wastewater services, transportation, and regional recreation open space. <br />System statements explain the implications of metropolitan system plans for each individual community <br />in the metropolitan area. They are intended to help communities prepare or update their comprehensive <br />plan, as required by the Metropolitan Land Planning Act: <br />Within nine months after receiving a system statement for an amendment to a metropolitan <br />system plan, and within three years after receiving a system statement issued in conjunction <br />with the decennial review required under section 473.864, subdivision 2, each affected local <br />governmental unit shall review its comprehensive plan to determine if an amendment is <br />necessary to ensure continued conformity with metropolitan system plans. If an amendment is <br />necessary, the governmental unit shall prepare the amendment and submit it to the council <br />for review. <br />Local comprehensive plans, and amendments thereto, will be reviewed by the Council for conformance <br />to metropolitan system plans, consistency with Council policies, and compatibility with adjacent and <br />affected governmental units. Updated local comprehensive plans are due to the Council for review by <br />December 31, 2018. <br />What is in this System Statement <br />The system statement includes information specific to your community, including: <br />•your community designation or designation(s); <br />•forecasted population, households, and employment through the year 2040; <br />•guidance on appropriate densities to ensure that regional services and costly regional <br />infrastructure can be provided as efficiently as possible. <br />•affordable housing need allocation;
