REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION DATE: 01/26/98 ITEM NO: H-l Department Approval: ~ Agenda Section: ~ Hearings Item Description: Adoption of Annual Comprehensive Plan Revisions 1.0 Background: 1.1 Each year in January the RosevilJe Planning Commission and City Council affirm the Comprehensive Plan changes that have occurred during the previous year. (The Comprehensive Plan was rewritten and adopted in September, 1994.) During the year all plan changes are approved by the Commission and Council. Most (see examples below) are then sent to the Metropolitan Council for their review, comment, and approval. 1.2 In order to keep track of amendments to the Plan, the Planning Commission has, as part of its first meeting of the year, scheduled the affirmation of the changes and inclusion of the changes on an addenda sheet in the front of the plan. This is a unique year, in that the Commission and Council will complete its plan affirmation stage in January, and then resubmit the Plan (with updated goals, policies, and demographics) in late 1998 for the Metro Area Mandatory Plan Review by the Metropolitan Council. For that reason staff may request the Commission and Council to hold a another review at "mid-yea~' for the existing plan and possible updates for 1998-99. 1.3 In 1997 there were a number of changes including the following: 1. Parks and Open Space Master Plan and Map - Delete an existing map titled "Park System" 7/14/94, update to the new map, "Parks and Open Space Map", which more thoroughly designates City of RosevilJe parks and various open space categories, and includes new parks (Zuettel) and new park open space (5t Paul Water Authority). The map will also illustrate an updated spreadsheet with park areas and percent of total city area. 2. Water SupplylManagement Plan 11/96 - Reviewed and approved by the Metro Council 3f2.8/97 (to be added to the implementation section, and by reference). 1
