PLANNING COMMISSION
RESOLUTION NO: 11-05-19-02
REVIEW OF THE 2020-2024 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN
WHEREAS, pursuant to Minnesota Statute 462.356, subd. 2, the Planning Commission shall review all
proposed capital improvements within the city or any other political subdivision having jurisdiction within
the municipality, and make findings as to the compliance of the proposed capital improvement with the
comprehensive municipal plan; and,
WHEREAS, the proposed 2020-2024 Capital Improvement Plan or CIP is regularly adopted by the City
Council at approval of its budget to determine what proposed capital improvements will be made to city
facilities and infrastructure; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council may by resolution adopted by two-thirds vote dispense with the requirements
of this section when in its judgment it finds that the proposed acquisition or disposal of real property has
no relationship to the comprehensive municipal plan; and,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SCANDIA,
WASHINGTON COUNTY, MINNESOTA, that the following findings have been made with regard to the
proposed 2020-2024 Capital Improvement Planning and conformity with the Scandia Comprehensive Plan:
• Bliss Addition Stormwater Project is found to be consistent with water resource goals and policies
to protect surface and groundwater quality and improve stormwater management are consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan.
• Bliss Addition Community Septic System Nitrate Abatement is determined to be consistent with
water resources goals and policies set forth in the Comprehensive Plan.
• Work on long-range planning for future improvements to the Scandia Community Center is found
to be consistent with goals of the Comprehensive Plan as it is focused on the provision of cultural
and civic activities in the Village Center and the community’s goals to encourage investment in
community-oriented institutions.
• Proposed Second Auxiliary Fire Station (proposed at the Big Lake School Area at the intersection of
Manning and Mayberry Trails) – Discussed the current land designation as a park, but a second fire
station is desirable and needed to benefit the west side of the city and is consistent with the Comp
Plan goals related to public safety. They recommended adding this project to the Comp Plan
update proposed for adoption at the end of this year. Planner Clapp-Smith will consult with Bolton-
Menk on when comp plan amendments can be made.
Adopted by the Scandia Planning Commission this 5th day of November, 2019.
