Centerville 2040 Chapter 3: Land Use <br /> Forecasting employment involves numerous criteria. The level of retail development may <br /> follow the extent of residential activity. The amount of retail development in adjacent <br /> communities will also impact the potential in Centerville. Industrial uses vary dramatically in <br /> terms of jobs per acre or floor area. The size of the industrial area suggests that larger, <br /> employment-intensive industries would be the exception in Centerville. <br /> According to the Metropolitan Council local forecast, Employment is estimated to increase <br /> from 430 to 590 jobs by the year 2040. This equates to 80 jobs for each ten year growth <br /> stage. Currently the City has approximately 48 acres of land guided for commercial and 12 <br /> acres of land guided as industrial. Using the current employment figure, we can estimate <br /> that Centerville has roughly 7.2 jobs per developed commercial or industrial acre. Between <br /> 2020 and 2040, Centerville hopes that the remaining 51 acres of land guided for <br /> commercial and 67 acres of vacant land guided industrial will develop consistent with the <br /> Future Land Use Plan. This would bring total acres of commercial land to 99 and industrial <br /> land to 79. If the future commercial and industrial land develops with a similar jobs per <br /> acre, Centerville could have approximately 1,280 jobs upon full build out. <br /> PROTECTING °'SPECIAL RESOURCES <br /> As required by state statute, a municipality's comprehensive plan must also include <br /> strategies for protection of special resources, including solar access, historic preservation, <br /> and aggregate. These strategies are discussed below. <br /> Solar Access <br /> Minnesota Statutes require an element for the protection and development of access to <br /> direct sunlight for solar energy systems. The purpose of this legislation is to prevent solar <br /> collectors from being shaded by adjacent structures or vegetation and to ensure that <br /> development decisions do not preclude the possible future development and use of solar <br /> energy systems. To ensure the availability of solar access, the City of Centerville will, <br /> whenever possible, protect access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems on principle <br /> structures. The City of Centerville will consider solar access in the review of site plans and <br /> planning decisions. <br /> Aagreaate Resources <br /> Metropolitan Council requires that metropolitan area communities identify any regionally <br /> significant aggregate resources to ensure proper planning for their use. Centerville does <br /> not contain any regionally significant aggregate resources and therefore does not require <br /> any special planning. <br /> Chapter 3 1 Page 16 <br /> 17 <br />
