It should be noted <br />that the maps and information regarding land use and urban-rural service area <br />locations are out of date and need to be revised in the final EIS. <br /> <br />Also, in implementing this project 'it will be necessary to ensure that public <br />facility investments and service levels are complementary to one another and <br />are coordinated to efficiently serve the development needs of the Region. The <br />location, timing, and staging of land uses and urban service areas in Andover <br />and Ramsey are not yet finalized. It is expected that final designations will <br />be made by June as a result of the Comprehensive Plan review process now <br />under way pursuant to the Metropolitan Land Planning Act. The final EIS should <br />respond to the final status of local land use and service area plans, and <br />project implementation should be supportive of the local comprehensive plans, <br />particularly their urban service area timing. <br /> <br />m <br /> <br />m <br /> <br />m <br /> <br /> A~ Agaric)' Crc;~ted to Coordinate th,' P, laoning l~nd Dev~ h)l)~nent of the Twiz~ Cities Motropolitan Arer~ Con,prising: <br />Anok~ County 0 C~rver County 0 Dakot~ Cot~'nty 0 Honnepin County 0 R~mscy County 0 ~¢ott County 0 W~shington County <br /> <br />An E¢lunl Opport'~nity Employer <br /> <br /> <br />
