<br />Comprehensive Water Plan <br />City of Arden Hills, MN <br />WSB Project No. 3455-20 PAGE 2 <br />INTRODUCTION <br />Purpose <br />This Comprehensive Water Supply Plan is a section of the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan. <br />The purpose of the Comprehensive Water Supply Plan is to provide an overview of the City’s <br />current drinking water resources, infrastructure, policies, and challenges, and to present future <br />plans. <br />This Comprehensive Water Supply Plan has been prepared according to the guidelines <br />established by the Metropolitan Council and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources <br />(DNR) per Minnesota Statute 473.859, which requires that Water Supply Plans be completed by <br />all local units of government in the seven-county Metropolitan Area. The attached Water Supply <br />Plan conforms to the template provided by the DNR, while this Comprehensive Plan expands <br />upon the template and provides further information for City and Metropolitan Council planning. <br />Background <br />The City of Arden Hills, ten square miles in area, is located in Ramsey County to the north of the <br />Twin Cities. All of the properties within the City limits are currently serviced by the City’s water <br />distribution system which receives its water supply from the City of Roseville, which in turn <br />receives its supply from SPRWS. <br />This study uses population projections consistent with the MCES System Statement for the City <br />of Arden Hills. Historical data and projected water demands are used to estimate water demand <br />through the year 2040 and to evaluate the existing water distribution system with respect <br />tothose demands. The planned 2040 land use from the Land Use Plan was used to identify <br />specific areas of development and the associated improvements that will be required to serve <br />those areas. <br />Data Available <br />The following sources of information were used to prepare this report: <br /> Water Supply Plan for the City of Arden Hills, prepared by WSB & Associates, Inc. <br /> MCES System Statement for the City of Arden Hills <br /> MCES Community Profile for the City of Arden Hills <br /> Water usage data as reported by the City to the DNR’s Minnesota Permitting and <br />Reporting System (MPARS) <br /> <br />Dr <br />a <br />f <br />t <br /> <br />11 <br />/ <br />2 <br />0 <br />/ <br />2 <br />0 <br />1 <br />7
