REVIEW RECORD
Review of the City of Scandia 2030 Comprehensive Plan Update
STATUTORY AUTHORITY
The Metropolitan Land Planning Act(MLPA)requires local units of government to submit comprehensive
plans(plans)and plan amendments to the Council for review and comment(Minn. Stat. § 473.864, Subd. 2).
The Council reviews plans to determine:
■ Conformance with metropolitan systerrt plans,
■ Consistency witl� otller adopted Plans of the Cou��cil, and
■ Con�patibiliry witlz the Plans of other local jurisdictions in the Metropolitan Ar�ea.
The Council may require a local governmental unit to modify any plan or part thereof if, upon the adoption
of findings and a resolution, the Council concludes that the Plan is more likely than not to have a substantial
impact on or contain a substantial departure from metropolitan system plans(Minn. Stat. § 473.175, Subd.
1).
Each local government unit shall adopt a policy plan for the collection, treatrnent and disposal of sewage for
which the local government unit is responsible,coordinated with the Metropolitan Council's plan,and may
revise the same as often as it deems necessary. Each such plan shall be submitted to the Council for review
and shall be subject to the approval of the Council as to those features affecting the Council's
responsibilities as determined by the Council. Any such features disapproved by the Council shall be
modified in accordance with the Council's recommendations(Minn. Stat. § 473.513).
CONFORMANCE WITH REGIONAL S�(STEMS
Regional Parks
Reviewer:Jan Youngquist, CD—Regional Parks System Planning, (651-602-1029)
The Update is in conformance with the 2030 Regional Parks Policy Plan (RPPP). The Update
acknowledges Big Marine Park Reserve and William O'Brien State Park, which are partially within the
City.
Transportation
Roads a�id Transit
Reviewer.•Ann Braden, MTS—Systems Planning, (651-602-1705)
The Update is in conformance with the 2030 Transportation Policy Plan and addresses all the applicable
transportation and transit requirements of a comprehensive plan.
With regard to the functional classification of roads,the Update identifies a number of"Minor Collector"
roadways that are not shown on the current Transportation Advisory Board(TAB)-adopted Functional
Classification Map. To include these minor collectors on the TAB map, the City must formally request their
inclusion through the TAC-Planning Committee as a separate process outside the Comprehensive Plan
Update review process.
Avintion
Reviewer: Chauncey Case, MTS—Systems Planning(651-602-1724)
The Update is in conformance with the Aviation System Plan and consistent with Council policy.

Water Resoin•ces Management
11'nstewater Ser►�ice
Revzewer: RogerJanzrg, ES—E�agineeringSe�vices, (651-602-II19)
The Update is in conformance with the 2030 Water Resoirrces Manage�ne�zt Policy Pla�i(WRMPP). The
Update summarizes the City's vision to the year 2030.The Update includes growth forecasts that are
consistent with the Council's forecasts for population, households and employment. The Metropolitan
Council has no plans to provide wastewater services to the community within the 2030 planning period.
Su�face Wnter Manageme��t
Reviewer:Judy Sve�ltek, ES— Water Resources Assessme�zt, 651-602-1156
The Update is in conformance with the Council's WRMPP. Scandia lies within the Carnelian Marine St.
Croix, Comfort Lake Forest Lake and Rice Creek watersheds. The Carnelian Marine Watershed District's
latest watershed management plan was approved by the Board of Water and Soil Resources(BWSR)in
2000. Comfort Lake Forest Lake and Rice Creek Watershed District's plan updates were approved by
BWSR in 2003 and 1997 respectively.
Scandia prepared a Local Water Management Plan(LWMP)in 2008. The Council reviewed the Scandia
LWMP under separate cover. The comprehensive plan update includes a revised LWMP that adequately
addressed the Council's previous concerns.
The City needs to send the Council the dates the watersheds approve the LWMP,the date the City adopts
the final LWMP, and a copy of the final adopted LWMP if it is different than the version reviewed as part of
the Update.
CONSISTENCY WITH COUNCIL POLICY
Forecasts
Reviewer: Todd Graham, CD-Research, (651-602-1322)

2030 Regional Development Framework and Land Use
Reviewer:Lisa Barajas, CD—Local Planning Assistance, (651-602-1895)
The Update is consistent with the 2030 Regional Developme�zt Framework(RDF). The RDF designates
Scandia as a Diversified Rural Area, which directs communities to plan for densities no greater than one
housing unit per 10 acres.Typically, these communities include a mix of a limited amount of large-lot
residential and clustered housing with agricultural and other uses.
The City is largely rural with an historic Village Area, similar to other communities along the St. Croix
River. With its many lakes and border with the St. Croix, the City also has had significant residential
shoreland development. In both cases, development has been at densities more similar to urban densities,
N:ICanmDevILPAICo»vmmitreslScnn�lialReporlslScnndin 2009 CPU10456-I.doc � 4
although the City does not have regional sewer service. The City does have several "201 sewage treatment
systems,"two of which serve the Big Marine Lake area and one that serves the Village Area.
Diversified Rural Areas are expected to accommodate forecasted growth without requiring the provision of
regional urban services. In addition, these communities are expected to protect natural resources, to prevent
scattered rural residential development, and to adopt conservation subdivision, cluster, or other
environmental pr-otection provisions in their ordinances. The City has provided significant detail on existing
natural resources in the community, along with goals and policies for the protection of those resources.
These policies include prioritizing natural resource protection areas,the continued implementation of the
City's Open Space Conservation Subdivision Ordinance and the investigation and development of other
natural resource protection ordinances.
The Future Land Use Plan directs future development toward the Village Area, where community
wastewater facilities and water supply utilities are already in place, while maintaining lower densities in the
remainder of the community. The Future Land Use Plan includes seven land use categories that allow
residential development. These categories account for the existing development patterns along the St. Croix
River, lakeshore development, and the patterns in the Village Area where higher densities already exist.
Outside of the existing development patterns, the future land use designations limit densities to no more than
one unit per 10 acres.This includes the land use designations of Agricultural Core Area and General Rural
Area, which accounts for the majority of the land available for residential uses. In addition,properties
enrolled in the Agricultural Preserves Program are guided under the community's Agricultural Preserves
Overlay Area, which limits density to no more than one unit per 40 acres.
The Update includes a detailed theoretical buildout analysis that shows total vacant acres,wetland acres,net
buildable acres, maximum planned density, potential new homes without density bonuses, and potential new
homes with bonuses.The City allows up to 75 percent bonuses for conservation developments, and recently
significantly tightened the bonus process to�imit bonuses. Nevertheless, the analysis assumes the two
possible extremes,either no bonuses or maximum bonuses. Using the Council's forecasted growth in
households(806)with Scandia's 7,380 acres of vacant land,the Update provides sufficient land to
accommodate their forecasted growth.
The Update further analyzes a full buildout scenario. Full buildout is put at 856 housing units yielding a
density of at least one unit per 8.6 acres. Buildout using maximum number of bonuses would yield 1,336
housing units at a density of one unit per 5.5 acres, while buildout excluding the village and assuming no
bonuses would yield an average density of one unit per 9.0 acres. As discussed in the Update,the maximum
buildout is unlikely to occur as every development would need to use conservation design at maximum
density bonuses and would require a 66% increase in growth.

Given the Council's household forecast increase(806)and given the amount of vacant developable land
remaining in Scandia, if the City is to meet the forecast, the resulting density will be greater than the
required one unit per 10 acres at one unit per 9.2 acres. Existing development patterns and the City's goal of
efficient use of existing municipal utilities pushes the overall density to be greater than one unit per 10
acres. While residential development density in the community could surpass the Council's policy of 1 unit
per 10 acres,this does not represent a system impact. 'The Council is not planning for regional wastewater
services in the City and the City's policies are otherwise consistent with those identified for Diversified
Rural communities.
Housing ,
Reviewer:Linda Milashius, CD—Livable Communities, (651-602-1541)
The Update fulfills the affordable housing planning requirements of the Metropolitan Land Planning Act. As
a community without regional sanitary sewer service,the City does not have a numerical share of the
regional need for affordable housing. The Update does provide an assessment of the housing stock,and
provides goals,policies and implementation strategies the City will use to address its local affordable and
life cycle housing needs. T'he Update states the City will support Washington County programs that are
available to assist local residents with their housing needs.These programs include,but are not limited to
bond financing, low-income housing tax credits and the Grow Fund, which assists developers with gap
financing for affordable housing development.
In addition to providing financial resources,the City will work in cooperation with Washington County to
continue to monitor the general condition of the housing stock, with a special focus on the tenure
characteristics of older housing, and will encourage residential buildings to be designed for accessibility in
order to meet the needs of current and future owners.The City will also explore creating opportunities to
develop housing on smaller lots and to develop two-family and multi-family housing within the Village
Center, when community wastewater systems are available.
Community and Individual Se�vage Treatment Systems (ISTS)
Reviewer:Jim Larsen, CD—Local Planning Assistance, (651-602-1159)
The Update is consistent with Council policies with regard to ISTS. The Update indicates that there are an
estimated 1,394 ISTS in operation in the City. The City requires adherence to MPCA Chapter 7080 Rules
and Washington County Ordinance 128,which are consistent with Council policies. T'he City has delegated
responsibility for inspections and maintenance management tracking to Washington County.
d
N:ICornrnDevILPAICannninilieslScm�dinlReporlslScnnrlia 1009 CPU20956-I.doc 6
There are three public "201" wastewater collection and treatment systems in operation in the City. The
locations of these facilitics are identified on Maps 16 and 17 of the Update. These facilities are operated and
maintained by the City in accordance with Ordinance No. 108, accessible online through the City's website.
Water Supply
Reviewer: Snra Bertelsen, ES- T�Yater Supply Planning, (651-602-1035)
The Update indicates that the City does not own and operate a water supply system and therefore is not
required to have a water supply plan.
Resource Protection
Historic Preseivntion
Reviewer:Jini Uttley, CD-Local Planni�ig Assistance, (651-602-1319)
The Update is complete for Historic Preservation.The Update includes a description of historic settlements
and a listing of properties on the National Register of Historic Places. It includes policies to encourage
historic preservation: The City will "explore the feasibility of initiating historic preservation efforts that
would encourage tl�e preservation of historic buildings, such as a revolving grant or loan program for fa�ade
improvements." It also proposes that this policy will be implemented in the next 10 years.
Solar Access Protection
Reviewer:Jim Uuley, CD-Local Planning Assistance, (651-602-/3/9)
The Update addresses solar access protection on page 139 and therefore meets Land Planning Act
requirements. It includes policies to require subdivisions to identify lots with good solar access and to
consider solar easements.
Aggregate Resources Protection
Reviewer:Jim Lmsen, CD-Local Planning Assistance, (651-602-1159)
T'he Update identifies, consistent with Minnesota Geological Survey h formation Ci�-cular 46,the presence
of viable aggregate resources in the City.Table 3 and Map 6 identify the extent and location of the resources
and the City's Aggregate Resources Ordinance governs the relationship between mining operations and
existing and proposed developments. Planning goals and policy statements call for preservation of sensitive
resource areas, extraction prior to development of other lrnown resources, and restoration following mining
to pre-extraction natural vegetation.
PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
Reviewer:Lisa Barajas, CD-Local Planning Assistance, (651-602-1895)
The Update includes a description of and schedule for any necessary changes to:
■ Capital Improvement Program Yes
■ Zoning Code Yes
■ Subdivision Code Yes
■ ISTS Code Yes
■ Housing Implementation Program Yes
The Update contains a description of the possible future changes to the capital improvement program,
zoning code, and subdivision code, including a proposed zoning map and implementation strategies for
intergovernmental cooperation. The City is reminded that it must submit copies to the Council of any
changes made to any of the above noted documents within 30 days of their adoption.
COMPATIBILITY WITH PLANS OF ADJACENT GOVERNMENTAL UNITS AND PLANS
OF AFFECTED SPECIAL DISTRICTS AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS
N:ICornmDevILPAIConummilieslScnndinlReportslScnndin 2009 CPU20456-/.doc � �
The City submitted the 2030 Comprehensive Plan Update to adjacent local units of government, school
districts, counties and special districts for comment in July, 2008. The City received responses from all
review bodies and incorporated suggested changes in the final draft Update that was submitted to the
Council. There do not appear to be any compatibility issues with plans of adjacent governmental units and
plans of affected special disficts and school districts.
