of Arden Hills - Comorehensive Plan - DRAFT <br />and protected resource chapters. Ordinances are the regulatory tool for guiding <br />development so that it is in conformance with the City's plans and overall vision. <br />This Comprehensive Plan calls for the updating of many ordinances most <br />notably the land use and shoreland ordinances. These ordinances require <br />continuous review to ensure that they are advancing the City's vision and <br />Metropolitan Council requirements. Furthermore, as State Statutes are <br />updated, they too must be reflected in the City's ordinances. <br />Formatted: Indent Left: 0", Tabs: <br />0.69", Left <br />14.3 Small Area Plans ( Formatted.
