"Site of the City's 1990 serwicearea.'' <br /> <br />The entire focus of the Metro Council comments is upon the fact that <br />the City has included approximately 5.8 square miles in its 1990 <br />urban service area and the Metro Council's Development Framework <br />anticipates a 2 square mile area. <br /> <br />The primary difference appears to be that the Metro Council staff seems to assume <br />that the urban planning area must develop to saturation by 1990 and the City has <br />simply assumed that it will concentrate its urban services in the area it has <br />designated for them and that, in view of ~.ts past experience with the Metro <br />Council's population projections, there is need for extensive flexibility in <br />the plan. <br /> <br />The Metro Council's assumption that there will be no industrial contribution to the <br />City's sewage flow before 1990 appears to be extremely short-sighted in view of the <br />industrial development that already exists in Ramsey. <br /> <br />B. "The timing of metropolitan sewer service to the citY" <br /> <br />This issue is addressed in response to the March 7 memorandum and in <br />the Comprehensive Sewer Plan. It should be pointed out that the <br />Metro Counci's objectives appear to be to delay service as long as <br />possible. The impact of that policy to date has been rapid development <br />of the city on 2½ acre lots outside the urban planning area. If that <br />kind of leap frog development, is not deemed to be desirable, reexamination <br />of the Metro Council's sanitary sewer service policy - at least in this <br />case - should be in order. <br /> <br />The capacity of the west leg Ramsey connection should be 3.92 MGD and not 1.45 MGD <br /> <br />keith caswell jr.
