Inflow & Infiltration* <br />H. Capital Improvement Plan* <br />*Required by the Metropolitan Council and State Statutes <br /> <br />Chapters 4-13 include a goal statement that is intended to be somewhat of a general, positive, and, <br />for the most part, uncontroversial statement. Each goal statement is then supported by a series of <br />policies and background data that are designed to advance and inform the goal statement and overall <br />City vision. The policies can be specific or general; short-term or long-term; easy or difficult; and <br />may be controversial in some instances. Not all policies or ideas will have unanimous support. <br />Some ofthe policies will require a great deal oftime, research and effort to fully implement while <br />others are relatively simple. Ultimately, some policies and implementation strategies may not be <br />achieved by 2030. Since the Comprehensive Plan is meant to guide the City through 2030, it is not <br />necessary to fully evaluate the potential or possibility of each goal or policy at this time. However, <br />each statement should have a desired result and be within the realm of possibility. <br /> <br />When reviewing the document, you may notice some topics or sections have a great deal of <br />background data and/or do not seem to apply to Arden Hills. There are a number of items that the <br />Metropolitan Council requires a City to address, even if the item is ultimately not applicable to <br />Arden Hills.
