Situated between the Cities of Stillwater and Bayport and 20 miles east of the Minneapolis -St. Paul Metropolitan Area, the City's population has increased in the last 10 years to almost 5,000 persons. The City is surrounded by the City of Stillwater to the north, the City of Bayport to the southeast, Baytown Township to the south and Lake Elmo/Stillwater Township to the west. The area was first platted in the late 1800s. Oak Park Heights was incorporated as a village in 1938 and became a City by State Statute in 1972. The City has been designated as a freestanding urban growth area (for expansion of water and sewer) by the Metropolitan Council, the regional planning agency in the area. As a component of the St. Croix Valley, Oak Park Heights offers an attractive quality of life with excellent educational, health care, and cultural facilities. Oak Park Heights is a very diversified community, being home to a large commercial/retail area with many national businesses and local enterprises, including the Highway 36 and Highway 5 commercial areas, Xcel Energy power generation plant, the Sunnyside Marina, and the State of Minnesota Correctional Facility. Housing in Oak Park Heights is both attractive and diverse and features starter homes, bluff line river view homes, riverfront condominiums, and the Boutwells Landing senior community. The City currently has over 100 acres of designated park space comprised of five municipal park facilities. The parks consist of skating/hockey rinks and warming houses, softball/baseball fields, picnic shelters, tennis courts, and general playground equipment. The City has been awarded the "Tree City USA" award for the past 36 years. The City operates under a "Plan A, Council Administrator" form of government, consisting of a Mayor and a four -member Council. The Mayor and Council are elected at large on a non-partisan basis, the Mayor for a four-year term and the Council for four- year staggered terms. The Council is responsible for adopting policies affecting City affairs, approving the annual budget, enacting ordinances and resolutions, and providing policy direction for City departments and activities. The City Council currently serves as the Economic Development Authority. The City has a Planning Commission and a Parks Commission. The Comprehensive Plan was last updated in 2008. The Metropolitan Land Planning Act requires communities to review and update their Comprehensive Plans every 10 years, with the next update for Oak Park Heights due in December 2018. The City will also be updating its utility plans, Comprehensive Park and Trail System Plan, and amend its Zoning Ordinance and map, as necessary. CornnrA 2018 City of Oak Park Heights Page 1 INTRODUCTION AND COM ITY BACKGROUND The City of Oak Park Heights Mayor, City Council, Planning Commission, and staff have recognized the need for the update of the 2048 Comprehensive Plan as it is outdated with the current growth and change over the past 10 years. The Planning Commission and Parks Commission have been tasked with developing the draft Comprehensive Plan and the Parks and Trails Plan. The Comprehensive Plan document will be divided into specific sections, as found in the Table of Contents, located in the beginning of this document. The process by which the plan has been developed can be divided into five sections including issues identification, inventory, policy planning, plan development, and implementation. Each portion of the process will involve citizen participation and involvement of City officials. Issues identification involves a Community Survey, and opinion gathering process to determine a specific set of issues that must be addressed by the Comprehensive Plan. The inventory consists of documenting the City's existing conditions at a particular point in time. The results of gathering inventory information will provide a basis of text, charts, and maps illustrating the most relevant collected information. The next stage, policy planning, will determine future directives for Oak Park Heights through the identification of goals and policies. The City will also develop its vision statement at this time. The policies that are created will promote direction for the subsequent planning sections of the document. The stage that follows consists of development of the physical plans and programs which will lay out the City's proposed land use, transportation, and community facilities plans. The final stage, implementation, will involve a discussion on how the plan will be used and brought into action. It will also provide the opportunity for the City to prioritize the plans and projects that result from the planning efforts of the Comprehensive Plan. On the following page, a base map of the City is represented. The map illustrates the corporate boundaries of the City at the beginning of 2017. This will be used throughout the plan as the basis for mapping the City of Oak Park Heights. P ��z O 51V6 1 2018 i�i�' City of Oak Park Heights Page 2 z INSERT BASE MAP HERE 2018 City of Oak Park Heightse re ire Page 3 fAI, INVENTORY The City of Oak Park Heights has recognized the need to develop a Comprehensive Plan as a means of addressing and accommodating the community's future growth and development. The purpose of the Social Inventory is to identify past trends, to document the current conditions and to help identify issues for establishing a hierarchy of planning policies. These policies will help the community address a broad base of land use and development issues. With the help of a solid information and policy base, decision makers can evaluate and prioritize proposals for the community while fulfilling the City's long term goals and objectives. Additional inventory information will be included in each of the individual sections of this Plan. Population trends and projections will be included within the Land Use section. Oak Park Heights as well as Washington County population projections will be evaluated to show the overall growth, as well as detailing change by age groups. POPULATION GROWTH The statistics in the following table illustrate the trends in population within Oak Park Heights, surrounding cities, and Washington County. Between 2000 and 2015, the City grew at a rate of 20 percent, and Washington County grew at the same 20 percent rate. The populations of the surrounding communities of Stillwater and Lake Elmo have been growing at a similar pace since 2000, while the City of Bayport has seen a slower rate of population growth at 14 percent. The population increases in the City have been attributed to job growth, and a continued increase in senior residential development in Oak Park Heights. The 2015 estimate and the projections of population reflected in the chart below is from the Metropolitan Council. The Metropolitan Council numbers are generally regarded as being accurate population estimates during non -census years. City of Oak Park Heights In looking at the data for Oak Park Heights since 2000, the number of households has steadily increased, while the number of persons per household has slightly declined. This is likely reflective of an increase in persons age 65 and over. It also reflects the natural trend of people having fewer children and the dynamics of the modern family. The 2015 estimate of population and households reflected below is from the Metropolitan Council. .�,ulair Households—Persons fil Source: U.S. Census 001 2010 Metropolitan Council 2015 The 2000 and 2010 Census provides a demographic profile of the households in Oak Park Heights as illustrated in the following table. As the table indicates, the households of married families with children decreased significantly from 21.7 percent in 2000 to 14.4 percent in 2010. The number of unmarred families with children also decreased. The percentage of households where people lived alone or where in non -family households increased. City of Heights Page 6 SOCIAL INVENTORY The following table illustrates Oak Park Heights' population by age group. The table utilizes information from the 2000 and 2010 Census as well as a projection for 2015 from the Metropolitan Council. In 2000, the labor force (ages 20-59) represented the largest age group, at 59.4 percent. In 2000, this age group was again the City's largest, accounting for 52.1 percent of the total population. By 2015, that age group had fallen to 49.9 percent of the population. At 24.2 percent in 2000, the next largest age group for this Census year was school age children. By 2000, this population group had fallen to 19.6 percent and 16.3 percent in 2015. Population growth over these 15 years has been in the retired persons category with the persons over 80 years old increasing from 4.0 percent in 2000 to 17.2 percent in 2015. Changes in the demographics of the City and surrounding area will have significant planning implications for the future. �c� re sive 1 2 Z City of Oak Park Heights Page 7 �� I SOCIAL INVENTORY Information from the 2010 and 2014 Census regarding employment demographics for Oak Park Heights and Washington County are depicted in the table below. The majority of those employed in the City both in 2000 and 2014 were in retail. The second largest category was health care.
