MEMORANDUM
TO: Eric Johnson
FROM: Scott Richards
DATE: June 20, 2018
RE: Oak Park Heights — Comprehensive Plan 2018
TPC FILE: 226.10
Background
The Planning Commission, at its June 14, 2018 meeting, recommended that the City
Council review the draft Comprehensive Plan documents and authorize staff to forward
them to the Metropolitan Council for preliminary review, and to adjacent and affected
jurisdictions for their consideration. The preliminary review by the Metropolitan Council
will provide comments and check consistency with regional plans prior to final draft
completion. Adjacent and affected jurisdiction review is required as part of the process.
Open House/Public Hearing
The Planning Commission scheduled an Open House for the Comprehensive Plan on
April 12, 2018. The Open House was advertised through the City Newsletter that was
distributed to every household in the community in March. Several residents attended
the open house and comments on the plan were received. The Planning Commission
also held a Public Hearing on the Comprehensive Plan through 2017 and 2018 at each
of its meetings to encourage public comment.
Introduction, Social Inventory, Issues identification, Mission Statement and
Goals, Land Use, Transportation, Administration, Community Facilities, Parks
and Trails, and Implementation Sections
The revised Introduction, Social Inventory, Issues Identification, Mission Statement and
Goals, Land Use, Transportation, Administration, Community Facilities, Parks and
Trails, and Implementation sections of the Comprehensive Plan are found as attached.
These sections had been updated with the comments from the Planning Commission
and City Council members to date.

Utility Plans
Lee Mann of Stantec, the City Engineer has provided draft copies of the utility elements
of the Comprehensive Plan for review. With the Introduction, Social Inventory, Issues
Identification, Mission Statement and Goals, Land Use, Transportation, Administration,
Community Facilities, Parks and Trails, and Implementation sections of the
Comprehensive Plan, this completes the draft for submittal to the adjacent and affected
jurisdictions and the Metropolitan Council.
The utility plans include:
• Comprehensive Sewer Plan
• Water System Master Plan
• Local Surface Water Management Plan
Due to the number of pages, these drafts will only be available online and paper copies
will not be distributed at the meeting. If any of the City Council members would like to
view paper copies, please contact Julie Hultman and they can be made available at City
Hall.
Conclusion
The City Council should authorize staff to forward the Comprehensive Plan
documents to the Metropolitan Council for preliminary review, and to adjacent
and affected jurisdictions for their consideration.
The final draft of the entire Comprehensive Plan, including the utility plans, will also be
reviewed as part of a final public hearing process later this year before sending the
completed draft to the Metropolitan Council.
