I IIId UUUUIUUU <br />December 13. 2017 <br />Page 2 <br />Item 8 — Permits <br />Please include in the permit section that amendment to the 2030 CPU or incorporation into the <br />2040 CPU is needed. Beginning July 1, 2018, we will no longer accept amendments to 2030 <br />comprehensive plans. Linked here is the Council's guidelines on 2030 comprehensive plan <br />amendment review through 2018 https://metrocouncil.org/Communities/Publications-And- <br />Resources/Comp-Plan-Amendment-Review-Through-2018.aspx. <br />Item 9 — Land Use <br />The SEAW discusses the City of Dayton Land Use Map (Figure 7) and indicates that the future <br />planned land uses in the AUAR area are commercial, low -medium density residential, low - <br />density residential, and agricultural preserve and that the northern part of the site is located in the <br />Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area. However, please note that Figure 7 is the City's <br />Existing Land Use Map versus 2030 CPU Future Land Use (Approved 2030 CPU Future Land <br />Use: https://metrocouncil.org/Council-Meetings/Committees/Community-Development- <br />Committee/2014/October-6,-2014/2014-241.aspx). Also, please note that the 2030 CPU future <br />land uses for the AUAR area include mixed use rather than commercial. <br />As noted in the SEAW, the eastern edge of the site includes land is guided Agricultural Preserves. <br />Please confirm in the AUAR if this area is still currently enrolled. <br />The Appendix includes Figure 8 "Proposed Land Use," which shows the entire development area <br />as "Master Plan Land Use," but should be updated to show future land use categories consistent <br />with the City's comprehensive plan (i.e. Mixed Use, Low -Density Residential). <br />Regional Parks and Trails <br />The AUAR area is adjacent to the West Mississippi River Regional Trail Search Corridor, which <br />will be planned, developed, and operated by Three Rivers Park District and governed by the 2040 <br />Regional Parks Policy Plan. Per the Dayton Park and Open Space Plan, the City will work to <br />connect surrounding communities to greenways and trails. The SEAW states the development of <br />the site will take these local planning efforts into consideration and establish the identified <br />connections. <br />Housing <br />The City's share of the region's need for affordable housing for the 2021-2030 decade is 333 <br />units. The size and sewer serviced capacity of this area suggests that some higher density <br />housing could be worth considering as a part of the overall project; perhaps in a mixed use <br />capacity or as a buffer between the commercial areas and the single family housing <br />areas. Creating some opportunities for housing at densities of at least 8 units per acre would also <br />contribute to Dayton's ability to address their affordable housing share for the next decade and <br />could provide more housing options within the North Dayton area. <br />Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZ) <br />TAZ forecasts are not discussed, but this would be helpful information. A draft set of TAZ <br />forecasts for 2040 has been prepared by Metropolitan Council and is available for local <br />governments to review. <br />The North Dayton development is a part of TAZ #803. The TAZ is mainly farmland, and <br />currently forecasted by Metropolitan Council to gain +318 households during 2010-2040. The <br />North Dayton SEAW discusses 1,500 to 1,700 new units. The TAZ #803 forecast should be <br />revised higher as part of the City's upcoming 2040 CPU. <br />
