No changes to the Plan's goals, policies, and policy plans are anticipated. When changes had been proposed in the past, Roseville staff have met with you or your staff to explain. As you know the City did completely update its Comprehensive Plan in September of 1994. A copy of that document was sent to the Metropolitan Council for review and comment. Since that date the City has made a commitment to keep the plan current in two ways: first, during the year, hearings and decisions are made on each project which may require changes in Comprehensive Plan designations; second, the City annually holds hearings in November and December seeking public input regarding the Plan, In January, the Planning Commission and City Council annually adopt an affirmation resolution of the changes from the previous year and include them in the official document and change the official maps. (In 1998, that affirmation occurred in December, 1998, for your plan review requirements.) A history of these affirmed changes is included in the Comprehensive Plan Amendments Chart at the front of Book 1. Like most communities, when Roseville adopted its 1994 plan, it set forth a series of implementation strategies (primarily neighborhood master planning) for the coming years, now located in Book 2. An informal Metropolitan Council staff review ofthe Roseville plan was done in May, 1998. Forecasts of Year 2020 population, housing, employment, T AZs, sanitary sewer projections, and an interim strategy for surface water management were requested (and are included). This year, because of the mandatory plan review, the City of Roseville will submit 2 volumes to the Metropolitan Council. -Book I is the Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies and Maps. Book 1 also includes a summary of the implementation strategies for each section. Book 2 is the compilation of the implementation strategies and other supporting programs and documents. A summary of the changes since 1994 is attached. If you have questions regarding the submissions, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, ~~ Dennis P.
