provided according to a controlled growth program resulting <br /> from adopted C~mprehensive Development Plans. The result <br /> has been maximizing the use of the public investment for city <br /> services. This controlled growth system has been a part of <br /> this northwest area since 1962. ' ' <br /> The Metro Council and its offspring, the Metropolitan <br /> Waste Control Con~aission, have expended extensive time and <br /> effort through local metropolitan funding and the financial <br /> aid received in accordance with the 201 and 208 sections 6f <br /> the federal Water Pollution Control Act (Clean Water Act - - <br /> PL92-500) to complete studies according thereto. These <br /> studies were preceded by a multitude of studies promoted as a <br /> resolution of the sanitary sewer interceptor and treatment/ <br /> disposal needs for this northwest area. The required reviews, <br /> hearings and alternatives have been completed and suggested. <br /> The Metropolitan Council has submitted a development time <br /> schedule for the CAB Interceptor installation, anticipating <br /> that all agencies will approve a system. The cities have co- <br /> operated in all phases of these studies and development time <br /> schedules. The municipal input has resulted in extensive use <br /> of local tax dollars. <br /> <br /> The jurisdiCtional and regulatory practices of f_he many <br />agencies involved has resulted in complete frustration for <br />the local community officials and the citizenry they represent. <br />The adopted program has become a moving target as alternates <br />have been continually proposed, together with the rules and <br />regulations that appear to change as the problem approaches a <br />mutual resolution. The failure to adopt a pro~ram that is ac- <br />ceptable to the various jurisdictional agencies has been the <br />Principal deterrant to establishing a direction for the CAB area <br />communities. This condition persists in spite of all the <br />stUdies that have been completed! approved and received input <br />from every area through the many public hearings. 'The cities <br />must have the CAB interceptor.to serve the local sanitary sewer <br />network necessary to serve the impending growth demands. The <br /> <br />-2- <br /> <br /> <br />
