Second by Anderson. Ayes: Five. Nays: None. Motion carried. Community Development Director Rogness reviewed the proposed Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment for the Metropolitan Urban Service Area(MLTSA). The Comprehensive Guide Plan was approved by Metropolitan Council in 1993, which extended development aut for twenty years in three phasing stages. The amendment would redefine the MLJSA boundaries by combining Phase 1 and Phase 2 into a new Phase i MUSA(2005), and changing the Phase 3 into a new Phase 2 MUSA(2005-2010). This would allow more flexibility to plan as growth occurs by allowing development projects to be approved now rather than wait until the year 2000. There are currently 705 acres available for residential development within the e�sting Phase 1 MtJSA. Approximately 65% of the total acreage within the current MUSA is owned by CMC Heartland Partners (165 acres) and Kelley Trust (290 acres). The existing Phase 2 shows 670 acres for residential and ?00 acres for commerciaUindustrial during the years 2000 to 2005. Metropolitan Council has begun a phase-out plan for the Rosemount Treatment Plant by the year 2001. Councilmember Carroll commented on development northeast of City Hall referred to as the Minea Property . Community Development Director Rogness suggested that"leap frog" development would not be advantageous and that the best approach in receiving approval from Metropolitan Council on this amendment was to keep the NILJSA boundaries the same and only change the phasing schedule. City Administrator Burt noted that the cost of infrastructure to that area would be great and that the key argument toward approval is that there are only two major land owners. Mayor Busho noted that the Comprehensive Guide Plan is a changing document.
