- 12- density of 6 to 20 units for multifamily development in the future urban area is consistent with the Council's land use advisory standards. It should be noted, however, that the 4-unitt per-acre density proposed for single-family housing in the same area is slightly lower than the advisory standard of 5 to 7 units per acre for urban single-family development. 4. Solid Waste (Paul Smith) The plan does not include any discussions of solid waste collection. Though not required by the Land Planning Act, this is a provision of the Metropolitan Solid Waste Act of 1976. It is recommended that the city indicate in its plan that it has adopted an ordinance governing the collection of solid waste within its boundaries. If Anoka County has adopted an ordinance governing collection, the city may either adopt the county ordinance by reference or adopt a stricter ordinance. The purpose of the ordinance is to assure that refuse collection services and needs are met and available to the general public, and that regulatory controls are available when necessary to control nuisance and public health problems attributable to refuse collection.

The plan, however, should address the additional comments raised by the MWCC in its letter. The Council has projected a 1990 sewer flow forecast of .57 mgd. Ramsey's forecast (.57 mgd) is consistent with this projection.
