METROPOLITAN COUNCIL <br />Suite 300 Metro Square Building, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101 <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />May 22, 1980 <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Physical Development Committee <br /> <br />Environmental Planning (John Harrington) <br />Local Planning Assistance (Lee Starr) <br /> <br />City of Anoka Request for a Policy Plan Amendment <br />to Permit the Extension of the Anoka Interceptor <br />Metropolitan Council District No. 12 <br /> <br />Introduction <br /> <br />The Anoka interceptor as described in the conditionally-approved <br />plans <br />and specifications prepared by the MWCC is shown by the solid black <br />line on the following map. The City of Anoka requests an amendment <br />to the 208 Areawide Plan/Development Guide on Water Quality.Manage- <br />ment to extend the Anoka interceptor from Trunk Highway 47 to the <br />Rum River (see circled area on the following map) at the same time as <br />currently authorized portions of the Anoka interceptor are built. <br /> <br />Authority to Review <br /> <br />Procedure No. 1 of the 208 Water. Quality Plan indicates local govern- <br />mental units may petition the Metropolitan Council at any time to <br />consider the adoption of a resolution authorizing consideration of an <br />amendment to the Water Quality Plan. This report responds to Anoka's <br />request to initiate consideration of a Water Quality Plan amendment <br />for the extension of the Anoka interceptor from Highway 47 to the Rum <br />River. <br /> <br />Considerations <br /> <br />City of Anoka <br /> <br />Anoka has indicated it will be providing local utility extensions and <br />street improvements in the same location as the proposed routing of <br />the Anoka interceptor from Highway 47 to the Rum River. The city <br />has indicated it would be logical to coordinate the installation of <br />the Rum River extension and local utility construction to avoid <br />higher future interceptor construction costs and to avoid the need to <br />disrupt local streets and utilities if the interceptor extension is <br />built in the future rather than now. The construction of the Rum <br />River extension would also save Anoka the approximate $21,000 cost of <br />providing a lift station to serve a small portion of the Dunham Oaks <br />subdivision. <br /> <br /> <br />
