METR0PO'L I T A N 000NC I L Suite 300 Metro Square Building, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101 612-291-6359 DATE: February 10, 1984 TO: Metropolitan and Community Development Committee FROM: Comprehensive Planning Department (Pat Pahl) SUBJECT: City of Roseville Comprehensive Plan Amendment Housing Alliance Project Metropolitan Council District 3 Metropolitan Council Referral File No. 11801-1 I. AUTHORITY TO REVIEW The Metropolitan Land Planning Act of 1976 requires that amendments to local comprehensive plans be prepared, submitted to the Metropolitan Council for review and adopted in the same manner as the original plans. Minn. Stat. 473.864, subd. 2 (1978). Guidelines adopted pursuant to Minn. Stat. 473.854 for reviewing proposed amendments provide a 90-day review period for amendments potentially affecting one or more of the metropolitan systems and a 60-day review period for amendments that do not have a potential impact on metropolitan systems. Roseville submitted its proposed amendment on January 23, 1984. On February 3, 1984, the chairman determined that the amendment presented no potential impact on metropolitan systems; therefore, the 60-day review period applies. The 60-day deadline for review of the amendment is March 23, 1984. II. DESCRIPTION AND ISSUES This Plan amendment proposes changing the punned land use of three or. more acres of land from pant expansion to high density residential. The change is needed to allow the construction of a 128-unit elderly housing project on a portion of a site previously planned as an expansion of Villa Park (Attachment 1). Several residents of Roseville have contacted the Metropolitan Council (see Attachment 2) raising issues such as the impact of the proposed development on the sewer system and stormwater runoff. III. ANALYSIS Sewers The proposed project represents an increase in potential sewer flow of 28,000 gallons per day. In its Plan, the City projected a 1990 flow of 4.67 mgd (million gallons per day), which is less than the Council's projection in the policy plan of 4.76 mgd. An increase of ..6 percent in projected sewer flow, which this development would generate, is not regionally significant.
