8.a 1 Staff Report-2018-2022 Capital Improvement Plan
Staff Report
Date of Meeting: September 6, 2017
To: Planning Commission
From: Neil Soltis, Administrator
Re: 2018 – 2022 Capital Improvement Plan
Background:
The Planning Commission’s role in the Capital Planning process is prescribed in Minn. Stat. §
462.356, subd 2. After a comprehensive municipal plan or section of a plan has been
recommended by the Planning Commission and a copy filed with the City Council, the Planning
Commission must be given a chance to review and comment on all proposed public capital
improvements within the City.
The Planning Commission must report in writing to the City Council its findings as to whether
the proposed capital improvements are in compliance with the comprehensive municipal plan.
The term capital improvement is not defined within the comprehensive planning statute.
However, other statutes define a capital improvement as “betterment of public lands, buildings
or other improvements.” While the Capital Improvement Plan includes the purchase of
equipment and vehicles, these would not be considered capital improvements using the
definition in the statutes.
The Planning Commission has 45 days to report on the proposal, unless the City Council
designates a shorter or longer period for review. If the Planning Commission does not report
within the required timeline, this statutory provision is considered waived by the Commission.
A City Council may by resolution adopted by two-thirds vote dispense with this requirement
when in its judgment it finds that the proposed capital improvement has no relationship to the
comprehensive municipal plan.
In submitting comments and review, the Planning Commission serves in a strictly advisory role.
The City Council ultimately decides on capital improvements for the city and is not bound by
Planning Commission recommendations.
Issue: Are the improvements included in the 2018 – 2022 Capital Improvement Plan as
recommended by the Capital Improvement Committee in compliance with the 2008
Comprehensive Plan.
Proposal Details:
Included in your packet is the 2018-2022 Capital Improvement Plan. By number most of the
improvement projects recommended in the plan are for the replacement of existing equipment
that is at the end of its useful life. The projects that are not equipment related and subject to
review for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan are:
Lilleskogen Park Improvements
Shelter – 2018 - $15,000
Other undesignated – 2020 - $10,000
A goal in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan is implementation of the 2006 Parks, Trails, and
Open Space Plan for improvements to Scandia’s existing parks and trails. Lilleskogen (Old
Lions Park at the time) was listed as an undeveloped site with no improvement
recommendations. An implementation recommendation in the 2030 plan is to develop
existing undeveloped parcels as an integral part of Scandia’s park system. The proposed
improvements are consistent with the Lilleskogen Park Plan that was approved by the City
Council in 2008.
Roads
Reclaim and repave – 2018 - $6,500,000
Mill and Overlay – 2020 - $620,000
Mill and Overlay – 2021 - $450,000
Mill and Overlay – 2022 – 320,000
A goal in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan is to maintain Scandia’s system of local roadways. A
policy under that goal is to keep Scandia’s hard surface roadways in good repair with timely
maintenance and investment. The proposed 2018 project address all of the Scandia Roads
that have pavement ratings of poor or very poor. The projects for 2020 – 2022 address
roads that are currently rated fair.
Options:
1) By motion approve the improvements in the 2018 – 2022 Capital Improvement Plan
as being consistent with the 2008 Comprehensive Plan16-2020 CIP as drafted
2) Recommend the Plan be changed to remove improvements that are not consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan
3) Defer action until the October Planning Commission meeting
4) Take no action for 45 days in which case the review requirement is waived.
Recommendation: Option 1
