RE: City of Chanhassen -The Arbors Comprehensive Plan Amendment - Complete for Review
Metropolitan Council Review File No. 16500-15
Metropolitan Council District 4
Dear Mr. Generous:
The Metropolitan Council received the city's The Arbors comprehensive plan amendment (CPA) for
review on January 25,2007. Council staff found that the CPA was complete for review on February 15,
2007. The 30-day notification period will expire on February 28,2007. To date, the Council has
received no request for a public hearing on the CPA.
The CPA will need to go to the Community Development Committee (CDC) and Council for formal
action. The Council has 60 days to complete its review with the option of extending the period for an
additional 60 days. The initial 60-day review period ends on March 26, 2007. However, it now appears
that the CPA will go to the CDC for action on March 19 and to the Council for action in March 28,
2007. For this reason, the Council is exercising its option at this time to extend the review period an
additional 60 days or until May 25,2007.
A copy of the staff report and CDC agenda will be emailed to you about a week before the CDC
meeting. If you have any questions about the information requested in this letter or about the review
process, please contact Jim Uttley, AICP, principal reviewer and sector representative, at 651-602-1361.
Sincerely,
