Housing City of Centerville 2030 Comprehensive Plan market conditions in the region. Economic conditions and other factors may stall the pace of development, as well. It is not intended that the anticipated growth represented in Table 20 be strictly applied. If the pace of development becomes accelerated utility extensions will be available to respond. Anoka County and the metropolitan region as a whole are expected to see a decline in household size by 2030. The estimate for household size is taken from the Metropolitan Council's System Statement for Centerville. Assuming Centerville is fully developed by 2030, the City will likely have 2,455 households containing 6,236 people. Some estimates, such as that done by the US Census, show household size declining even further, and this would mean Centerville's population may even be below 6,000 people when it is fully developed. The land use plan developed by the City Council and Planning Commission anticipated these uncertainties, and planned for a population close to 6,000 in order to meet their goal of sustaining a population above 5,000 people.

These generally include residential uses, commercial uses, industrial uses, public and park uses, and undevelopable land such as right of way and open water. The following are descriptions of these categories. Residential Uses A primary concern for the City regarding residential uses is to protect and enhance the existing housing stock and to allow new residential developments that contain low, medium and high density housing as appropriate. The residential areas currently served by utilities consist primarily of low density single family detached housing. Existing available land for residential development is either contiguous with areas presently served by public utilities, or is within areas guided for redevelopment such as the Downtown Area. It is assumed that public utilities will be extended to new residential development as appropriate and in a contiguous manner. 54
