REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />Department <br />DATE: Ol:'���� <br />Agenda �ection: <br />Item Description: Adoption of Annual (2003) Comprehensive Plan, and Plan Maps, and <br />Zoning Map Revisions (PF3533) <br />i �� BACKGROUND <br />�, ] Each year in December/January the Roseville Planning Commission and City Council <br />affirm the Comprehensive Plan changes that have occurred during the previous year. (The <br />_ Comprehensive Plan was rewritten and adopted in September 1994.) During the year, <br />- public hearings are held on all plan changes before the Commission and Council approve <br />= them. Most amendments (see examples below) are then sent to the Metropolitan Council <br />- for their review, comment, and approval. <br />I,� In order to keep track of amendments to the Plan, the Planning Commission has annually <br />scheduled the affirmation of the changes and inclusion of the changes on an addenda <br />— sheet in the front of the plan. This year the Planning Commission's public hearing on the <br />= changes that have occurred during 2003 occurred on November 5,2003 and continued to <br />- the hearing at the December 3,2003 meeting. The most significant change this year was <br />— the creation of amore up-to-date housing policy and implementation plan by the HRA, <br />= which was then submitted to the planning Commission and Council for approval during <br />- the summer and fall. All the modifications that have occurred in 2003 or are currently <br />= being considered for revision have been reviewed by the Commission. These changes <br />= and revision to all maps were distributedat the Planning Commission's December <br />— meeting. <br />t.� Starting in 2004, the staff proposes to update the Plan on a bi-annual basis, meaning the <br />next maj or revision to the Comprehensive Plan will be done in the fall of 2005. This <br />= change frvm our current annual update is due mainly to the stafftime required to <br />= undertake the updates and distribute the changes to outside agencies. <br />�.� COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVISIONS — A chart of the entire plan, sections, and <br />appendices is incorporated in the front of the Plan.
