The plan also includes the Final Draft of the Water Supply and Distribution Plan,Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Plan,and the Surface Water Management Plan. DISCUSSION Below,please fmd a synopsis of the various chapters and plans that make up the 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update. Plan Purpose&Vision Chapter VISION "Farmington will continue to grow as a community in ways that are high quality, balanced,and enhance our hometown feel.Farmington will be a desirable community for its friendly,safe, and well-maintained neighborhoods for residents of all ages.Farmington's hometown feel is also based on the community's natural open space character which entails strategic preservation of the community's natural and rural character. The community's continued growth will bring opportunities for adding and locating schools, recreational facilities,retail businesses,job opportunities,and other community assets convenient for neighborhoods.Balancing the community's residential growth with business growth will improve residents'access to desired retail, employment opportunities, and the residential/business tax ratio." GUIDING PRINCIPLES • Balance the Mix of Land Uses for Economic Vitality and Growth • Provide a Variety of Well Maintained Housing Choices • Protect and Conserve Natural Resources • Promote an Interconnected Community • Ensure Quality and Controlled Growth Land Use Plan Chapter Below shows the projections for 2020,2030 and 2040 population,households,and employment,which are the foundation for the proposed 2040 Future Land Use Plan Map's growth and land use designation changes. 2010 Census 2014(Est.) 2020 2030 2040 Change 2014-2040 Population 21,086 22,386 24,300 28,300 32,500 10,114(45.18%) Households 7,066 7,557 8,500 10,100 11,800 4,243(56.15%) Employment 4,438 4,595 5,600 6,200 6,800 2,205(47.99%) Since the current 2030 Plan defines the city's zoning districts rather than land use plan categories,draft land use plan categories have been added to the 2040 Plan.In addition,a new land use category has been added,Mixed Use(CommercialIndustrial),to address the city's desire for increasing flexibility of the types of future commercial and industrial uses allowed in the Spruce Street Master Plan/Pilot Knob Road area. The key factors driving the proposed updates shown on the 2040 Future Land Use Plan Map include the following: • 2040 population,households,and employment projections • Quantity of vacant developable land within the city • Significant quantity and location of land(approximately 800 acres)that will expire in 2019 and 2020 from the Agricultural Preserve Program, which means the property owners may be interested in developing this land • Planned future roadways network • Planned sanitary sewer system expansion(MUSA) • Location of sensitive water resources,e.g.creeks,floodplains,wetlands • Community's interest in adding commercial areas near existing and new neighborhoods • Guiding land to accommodate the city's portion of the metro region's affordable housing needs Significant changes to land use designations on the 2040 Future Land include the following: 1. Recommended changes from the 2016 Downtown Redevelopment Plan,primarily Commercial to Residential land uses in areas on the edge of downtown and near the river 2. Spruce Street Master Plan Area,Commercial to Mixed Use(Commercial/Residential)and Mixed Use(Commercial/Industrial) 3. North side of Hwy 50/Flagstaff,Agricultural to Residential,Mixed Use(Commercial/Residential)and Industrial 4. 195th St/Flagstaff,Agricultural to Residential(Low,Low/Medium,Medium and High Density Residential,and Commercial) An Anticipated Development Phasing map was developed to show phases in 10-year increments.This is included in the plan as the 2040 Anticipated Development Phases map. The nine draft land use goals are: 1. Efficient,well-planned land use expansion and development that meets the needs of the city's projected population,household and employment growth. 2. Balance of residential,commercial,employment,and public land uses that promotes the city's long-term economic stability. 3. Farmington's existing hometown character is maintained and strengthened through its future growth. 4. The diversity of housing options available is expanded as part of the community's growth and redevelopment. 5. A mix of convenient and attractive commercial areas are distributed around the city. 6. Employment centers are expanded in the community to increase job opportunities as well as increase and diversify the tax base. 7. Downtown is reinvigorated as the community's commercial,cultural,and recreational center as well as a great place to live. 8. Natural resources are protected for the benefit of the overall health of the community's natural and human environment. 9. Farmington's significant,scarce,and non-renewable heritage resources are preserved,protected and used in appropriate ways to reflect the community's shared values(public and private sectors)for its unique heritage. Housing Plan Chapter The current 2030 Housing Plan chapter identifies a number of housing issues in the city and focuses on the Livable Communities Act programs as ways to address affordability. The draft 2040 Housing Plan chapter keeps many of those items in place,but has shifted focus towards a variety of housing tools that can be used to meet the identified housing needs of the city.Many of the tools are through the Dakota County Community Development Agency(CDA),which the city will continue to support.In addition to housing tools,the chapter also analyzes the affordable allocation need,which is a new requirement of the Metropolitan Council In coordination with the draft 2040 Land Use Plan,we found that in the decade between 2021-2030,Farmington will have development of land uses in high enough densities to meet the affordable allocation need for the city.The tables below show the analysis: Future Land Use Acres(NET)2021- Minimun Units per Minimum%ResUnits Affordability Level 2030 Acre Medium Density 41.21 6 100% 247 51%-80%AMI High Density 28.1 12 100% 337 50%AMI and Below Mixed-Use(Comm/Res) 37.24 9 50% 168 51%-80%AMI TOTAL 106.56 752 Household Income Level Units Required Units Allocated At or below 30%AMI 317 337 31 to 50%AMI 51 to 80%AMI 124 415 TOTAL UNITS 441 752 The five draft housing goals are: 1. Maintain high-quality housing options 2. Provide a wide variety of housing types for people in all stages of life 3. Have housing that is affordable to all residents at all stages of life 4. Ensure that housing is located within livable,well-connected neighborhoods 5. Encourage measured residential growth that meets pent-up regional demand for housing while also recognizing the regional constraints for unchecked growth Parks&Recreation Chapter The draft 2040 Parks&Recreation Chapter has been updated to reflect the following: • The Existing and Proposed Park,Trail and Open Space Plan Map further refines and adds new neighborhood park locations so that future neighborhood parks are no more than one mile apart and provides to future residents no more than a half-mile walking distance to future neighborhood parks,which is a standard created by the National Recreation Park Association. . The Existing and Pronosed Park.Trail and Onen Snace Plan Man was refined to show future trail corridors aliening with future minor arterial and collector streets,which normally trails and/or sidewalks are constructed within the rights of way in these types of streets. • The goals have been updated to reflect addressing the community's population aging in the next 20 years. The city's current population has a relatively young median age,but this will change in the next 20 years. • The demographic information has been updated to reflect the current profile of the residents who live in Farmington. • A section on trails has been added,which was not included in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Sustainability Plan Chapter The current 2030 Sustainability Plan chapter simply consists of a brief history of the city's sustainability efforts and an extensive description of the Minnesota GreenStep Cities program.The draft 2040 Sustainability Plan chapter focuses on Farmington's participation in the GreenStep Cities program since 2011,when the city joined this program.The chapter identifies the sustainability best practices that have been achieved by the city up to now as a Step 2 GreenStep City as well as the city's goal to adopt additional sustainability best practices to achieve a Step 3 designation. The city's existing sustainability conditions are described,generally related to energy use and generation:building energy use,transportation energy use,greenhouse gas emissions,energy efficiency options,solar resources,and wind resources. Sustainability goals and policies have been added to this chapter,which are missing from the current Sustainability Plan chapter. The five draft sustainability goals are: 1. Achieve recognition as a Step 3 Minnesota GreenStep City 2. Reduction of environmental impacts in Farmington 3. Increased conservation of non-renewable energy 4. Increased use of renewable energy 5. Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions Economic Development Plan Chapter The current 2030 Economic Development Plan chapter consists of a lengthy history and descriptions of the Farmington's past economic development efforts.The draft 2040 Economic Development Plan chapter provides an overview of the purpose of municipal economic development planning,the role and powers of the Economic Development Authority(EDA),a brief history of Farmington's past economic development planning,the city's existing economic conditions,the Spruce Street Area Master Plan,the Downtown Redevelopment Plan,the city's three-year strategic planning process,and the city's key economic development partnerships.Economic development goals and policies have been added to this chapter,which are missing from the current Economic Development Plan chapter. The eight draft economic development goals are: 1. Healthy and diversified growth of existing and new businesses to achieve the community's 2030 and 2040 employment projections 2. A desirable commercial environment for residents is created through growth from existing and new businesses 3. Redevelopment of vacant and underutilized properties in older areas to revitalize these vital community areas 4. A well-trained and adaptable workforce is maintained within the community to support the projected business and job growth 5. Diverse housing options and quality of life amenities that support the needs and preferences of the community's workforce into the future 6. A three-year Strategic Plan for Economic Development that provides a dynamic and actionable tool for achieving the community's economic development vision 7. Public and private sector reinvestment in downtown to revitalize it as the community's commercial,cultural,and recreational center 8. Cultivation of strong relationships between existing businesses and the city to increase business retention Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Plan The 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update is to include a sanitary sewer element covering the collection and disposal of wastewater generated by the community. Similarly,the Metropolitan Sewer Act requires local governments to submit a Comprehensive Sewer Plan(CSP)which describes the current and future service needs required from MCES. The City of Farmington's existing and proposed sanitary sewer system for the 2040 development of the city was modeled and is shown on the maps included in the plan.The city has eight major sewer districts,named Districts 1 through 8,which each define the limits of service for a separate trunk system. Modeling of the sanitary sewer system was based on a variety of parameters,such as:land use,population density, standard wastewater generation rates,topography,and future land use plans.Based on development patterns,two of the trunk lines were given more detailed capacity consideration. This includes deploying meters in key manholes to calibrate the design assumptions against actual flows. Design assumptions in the model were updated based on the metering results and typical factors of safety. Water Supply and Distribution Plan The Water Supply and Distribution Plan develops the performance criteria under which the water system will be evaluated and designed.This involves an evaluation of historical population and trends,water use patterns and projections,water supply requirements,water storage requirements,required fire flows,and distribution system pressure requirements. Supply(Wells) Farmington's existing water supply consists of seven(7)active wells. There is currently sufficient water supply capacity for the existing system; however,a few of the supply wells have surpassed or will surpass their typical life expectancy during the 20-year design period.With the loss of tnese wens,n is recommenaea tnat the urty install at least one replacement wen navng a capacity of I.ru MUrJ or a i iu gpm wen pnor to au tnree wells being removed from service. This well is currently under contract and will occur over the next few months. It should be noted that Farmington also shares an interconnection with the City of Lakeville,but this interconnect is limited to emergency use only due to pressure and water compatibility issues. Storage The City of Farmington has two storage tanks:a 1.5 MG elevated storage tank at the municipal campus and a 0.67 MG standpipe in Daisy Knoll Park.While the total storage capacity is 2.27 MG,the effective storage capacity is 1.79 MG,as the standpipe has an effective storage capacity of 0.29 MG.Farmington's existing recommended storage volume is 2.49 MG and the future recommended storage volume is 3.65 MG. It is recommended the City install a 2.0 MG storage tank which is currently planned starting in 2020. Water Treatment The City's drinking water meets all primary drinking water standards,as indicated in historical Consumer Confidence Reports.The City also meets most secondary aesthetic water quality standards,except for iron and manganese. Treatment of raw water is currently limited to the addition of fluoride,chlorine and polyphosphate at each well house prior to entering the distribution system. At this time,feedback on the aesthetics of the water due to iron and manganese do not support the significant expense to add a water treatment plant to filter the water. Water Distribution The existing distribution system consists of watermains varying from 4 to 24 inches in diameter.Most of the City's watermains are constructed of ductile iron pipe(DIP),with older parts of the city being served by cast iron pipe(CIP).The city should consider replacement of 4-inch diameter pipes as part of overall street reconstruction projects. Modeling of the system was completed to determine the size of future trunk mains. The distribution system exists on a single pressure zone with static pressure readings ranging from approximately 45 pounds per square inch(psi) to 100 psi. Pressures are dictated on the system primarily by elevation. Considering the developing areas,the system will continue to operate on a single zone in the future. As part of the water system evaluation,there was discussion with Empire Township regarding potential water sharing. The township water system operates at a lower pressure than the city's. That being said,there is an area in the township,adjacent to the city,that will require a new pressure zone on their system. This area could be served from the Farmington system through a water sharing agreement in the future when it is ready to be developed. Surface Water Management Plan The Surface Water Management Plan serves as a comprehensive planning document to guide the conservation,protection and management of surface waters within Farmington. As a growing community,development and changes in land use will have the potential to decrease water quality, increase flooding,impact water resources and increase public expenditures on surface water management. The goals identified in this LSWMP are to: • Effectively and responsibly manage local water resources. • Protect and enhance surface water quality in the city. • Provide flood risk reduction measures for persons and property,and manage the rate and volume of runoff entering rivers,streams,lakes, and wetlands within the city. • Protect groundwater quality and quantity to preserve it for sustainable and beneficial purposes. • Maintain and enhance the functions and values of wetlands within the city. • Preserve floodplain and manage adjacent uses to minimize flood risks and associated damages. • Develop or improve recreational open space areas,fish and wildlife habitat,and public accessibility in conjunction with water quality improvement projects. • Protect and conserve water and natural resources by promoting sustainable growth and integrated land use planning. • Increase public awareness of the function and value of surface water resources and the impacts associated human activities. • Maintain adequate funding for surface water management. The more significant updates to the 2018 SWMP include the following topics: Updated Hydrologic/Hydraulic Modeling Using Atlas 14 Precipitation • Precipitation data used to complete hydrologic analysis was updated in 2014. The new standard rain events increased across the board. • This increase not only has implications as it relates to stormwater facilities in newly developing areas,but also areas where development has occurred.For new ponding facilities,sizing will be determined using the new data. For existing areas,the city will consider increasing capacity with typical pond maintenance projects. • The City is reviewing areas of potential flooding concern and considering working with FEMA to accelerate updates to the official floodplain maps Change in the City's approach to Regional Ponding • The 2008 SWMP anticipated the use of a number of regional stormwater ponds with property acquisition and construction costs contemplated and set with the Surface Water Management development fee. • Since the last plan,there are new regulatory requirements for volume control in addition to rate control. Volume control is currently accomplished on a site/development basis. • The SWMP update shifts to development-level ponds/BMPs to address both rate and volume control requirements. This approach allows for ease of phasing and property acquisition in line with the pace of development. • Costs for the construction of surface water management facilities is borne directly by the developer,therefore the City's development fee will be reduced. • This approach gives developers more control over placement of BMPs as an amenity to their developments,however the city will still seek to limit the overall number of ponds/BMPs that are implemented. MS4 General Permit To meet federal requirements,the city develops a local Stormwater Polluntion Prevention Plan(S WPPPs)meeting MPCA requirements under the State's MS4 general permit. This permit is on a five year cycle and is in the process of being renewed. The first round of the permit focused on program development meeting the six control measures. The second round shifted focus from program development to measuring program implementation. The MPCA is in the process of issuing a new MS4 General Permit. The 2018 update is expected to include additional requirements tracking performance of water quality ponds and other stormwater management BMPs. Transportation Plan The current 2030 Transportation chapter was last updated in 2011 and incorporated topic specific transportation studies completed in collaboration with Dakota County and MnDOT. The draft 2040 Transportation Plan builds off of the last update identifying a number of considerations to continue to build the transportation network.This chapter updates traffic forecasts and modeling based on the most current metro wide traffic analysis and changes to the overall land use. The overarching goals that will guide further development of the City's transportation system are to: • Provide a transportation system that is integrated with City land use and development plans,that preserves City historical resources,and conserves and,where possible,enhances environmental features and resources. • Provide a system which supports the efficient and effective movement of people and goods in a comprehensive yet cost-effective manner. To realize these goals,the City will address more focused objectives as summarized below: • Work with MnDOT and Dakota County on implementing access management principals. • In collaboration with Dakota County,review the role Diamond Path plays in the overall transportation network. • Further coordination and study with the City of Lakeville regarding timing and design considerations of 202nd/208th Street as it extends from CR 50 in Lakeville to the Industrial Park. • Further coordination and study is warranted regarding the connection of 208th Street from its current terminus at Riverview Elementary to CR66. • Further consideration of the travel/connectivity value of the 200th/203rd Street to 197th Street connection. • A commercial node adjacent to the CSAH 64/Flagstaff Ave intersection has been identified in the Land Use chapter. The City will continue to coordinate with the County regarding roadway timing and design considerations. Work has been initiated on a study in collaboration with Dakota County and Empire Township to review segments of Diamond Path,208th Street and 197th Street as they relate to the overall transportation network in the northeast Farmington area.
