MEMORANDUM
TO: Kate Aanenson, Planning Director
� -- j FROM: Bob Generous, Senior Planner
DATE: March 11, 1996
SUBJ: South 1995 Study Area
In order to facilitate the completion of the south 1995 study area review and to reduce the burden
on any one person, I am proposing that the area be divided among planning staff as follows:
Sharmin Al -Jaff - Sections 34 and 35, Twp 116; Sections 2 and 3, Twp 115
Bob Generous - Sections 22, 23, 26 and 27, Twp 116
John Rask - Sections 24, 25, and 26, Twp 116
Each planner would be primarily responsible for coordinating the review of their area.
In addition, I am proposing the foll owing schedule for completion of the tasks for the study:
Task 1 , prepare base maps, general site attributes, and preliminary evaluation criteria -
March/April 1996.
Task 2 , area analysis; April - June 1996.
Task 3 , initial land use recommendations, July /August 1996.
Task 4 , neighbor /sector meetings and prepare land use recommendations, August - October
1996.
Task 5 , Planning Commission discussions, September /October 1996.
Task 6 , Planning Commission public hearings, November/December 1996.

Task 7 , City Council review, hearings and adoption of land uses, December 1996 /January 1997.
Task 8 , Metropolitan Council review of comprehensive plan amendments, February/March 1997.
While the above schedule is flexible and can be expanded or contracted as necessary, I '
recommend that we not delay the public hearing process past the spring of 1997 so that we may
maintain high participation and interest levels. This schedule is also dependent on the
recommendations of the Bluff Creek Study and the Park Referendum Task Force continuing on '
schedule. I anticipate that the product of the study will be similar to Chapters 4 and 5 of the
Highway 5 Corridor Land Use Study.
