1) the potential Increased sewage flow would have a negative
Impact on the City's sewer capdclty and would requ;re
restriction of other land In the City to compensate for the
Increased floc; 2) the proposed requlding would not be
representative of good planning given the estdbl.ished LA -1
guiding and development In the ared; 3) traff is generated from
an LA -4 area would hdVe a negdtive Impact in the area; and 4)
there are other sites avdildble in the City for development such
as that contemplated by the petitioner which are dpproprlately
guided and/or toned.
Councllmeember Threlnen asked if the Libby store wou,ltl stA I L be

Councltnwanber Threlnen stated that the Intended use haws merit
but because It Is not a committed use, the property might be
used by the owner for some other high density purpose which he
couldn't support. It also would constitute "spot zoning" and
the City shouldn't allow this.

Councllmrmber Hells stited that she thinks the LA -4 ouldlnq is
undcceptable dt tals time, however, there Is merit with respect

OTHER V)S!MESS
Mayor Davenport asked for a sense of the Council on whether or
not to pursue 02 Opt Out plait or d demon3tration project funded
directly by the NTC. He evplalned teat Plymouth td%payers
contributed approximately one million dollers In 1914? to t',e
Transit Taxing Distr!,-! for transit service although the Cit;
receives none from tt-e MTC. The legislature has provined (i
method for cltle4 in this sltuatlon to fund transit improve.,tent
projects by "optln, oua"; In this case Plymouth has elected to
do so. Piymouth, ilonq with Medicine Lake Lines, has form.olated
d plan for service but becallge of a question In the lectislation,
the MTC Is afraid they may lose all of t1.e taxr!s levied against
Plymouth rather than only those funds required for the Opt (hit
project. For this reason the Metropolitan Council Starr has
s,.n:jgested that b) hsv s nq the MTC directly fund ;i denayr str•at ion
tho- financial problem can be avoided while allowing the trcinsit
project to lake place.
Assis<<fnt Manager Boyles explained the Opt Out process. At .
meet[ny with all the pdrtles Involved, a compromise solution was
discussed; a cooperdtive fundlrtq of d trdns!t plan between the
City and MTC. The City now his to choose between supporting t;,e
proposed compromise solution or whether to eont.inue to pursue
the Opt Out plan.
