CITY OF CENTERVILLEREQUEST FOR ACTION Agenda Item # Department: RequestedMeetingDate: June 7, 2022 Administration/Engineering VII. 4 TITLE OF ISSUE: Population 5000 Discussion BACKGROUND AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: The city's 2040 Comprehensive Plan addresses the future land uses, including the density of residential uses. If that plan is followed, in terms of the types and densities of uses, the city's build-out population will be over 5000 people. Exceeding this population threshold is a stated goal in the plan. There are substantial financial implications to reaching such a population (about $300,000 in "State Aid" street funding, annually). This would be about 10% of the city's current general fund budget. Development patterns in Centerville over the last 25 years have trended towards the lower end of planned densities. As part of the City Council's Strategic Plan, they identified the need for an explicit conversation on the question of whether or not "Population 5000" should continue to be a goal of the city. The Commission should begin this discussion and look at ways to thoughtfully examine the issue, perhaps including public input strategies. COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING: N/A REQUESTED ACTION: Discussion only.
