Resolution No. 2015-13 2 January 20, 2015 Exhibit A Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment Proposed Amendment to Chapter 3 — Community Background (pages 3-2 through 3-3) Population and Household Trends Table 3-A below shows historical and projected population and household size data for the City of Medina. The 1990,-and2000, and 2010 population and household data is from the U.S. Census. The 2005 population and household estimates and thc 2010 2030 2040 population and household projections are from the Metropolitan FfafnewerkThriveMSP2040 documents. Metropolitan Council to be 4,770 people and 1,616 households in 2005. According to the Metropolitan Council, the average household size is expected to continue to decline regionally over the next 20 years due to an increase in the number of seniors and lifestyle changes.

The Ci experienced relatively constant growth up to the 1900s 1144or< ronidh increasing in the last 54o 1015 years. This population trend will continue to increase as areas within the City guided for urban residential densities are developed. The City had a population of 4,892 at the time of the 2010 Census and Tthe Metropolitan Council forecasts a population of 5,800 in 2010, 9,200 in 2020 and 12,7009,000 in 2030 2040 which corresponds to an 30 84 percent increase over each 10 year period. Current development patterns suggest that the City may fall short of these projections due to the 2007 housing slump. Table 3-B below was developed based on the Guide Plan and Staging Plan developed as a part of this Plan. This table demonstrates the City's projections for future growth in the community. The City plans to grow and has anticipated a population of approximately 11,2119,000 in 29-382040.. Although this population forecast is lower than that of the Metropolitan Council, the forecast is based on a lower person per household estimate then utilized by the Metropolitan Council. If the City utilized thc same persone Metropolitan Council, the forecast would be 98 percent of the Metropolitan Council forecast. The City has also projected much lower growth in the number of unsewered households than projected by the Metropolitan Resolution No. 2015-13 3 January 20, 2015 Council forecasts, TABLE 3-B Medina Population and Households Forecast based on Future Land Use 1990 2000* 2005** 2010 2020 2030 2040 Change 2000 - Total Population 8993 7006 Sewered 2158 2745 3066 2838 6958 4922 6801 317147% 3096 2218 1994 Unsewered 1848 2025 2145 2053 2146 2024 1976 20% -3% Total Households 3597 2725 Sewered 1007 705 927 1050 987 25301856 2547 410%176% Unsewered 604 685 715 740 765 775 27% 8% *2000 Sewered and Unsewered numbers are estimates based on US Census Data, exact sewer units is unknown. **2005 population and households from 2000 US Census, employment from Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) estimates.

Resolution No. 2015-13 4 January 20, 2015 Proposed Amendment to Chapter 5 - Land Use and Growth (pages 5-19 through 5-20) Staging Plan The staging plan is tied to infrastructure plans, including water, wastewater and transportation, to ensure that services are provided to new residents and businesses in an efficient and cost- effective manner. The staging plan, Map 5-3, utilizes flexible staging boundaries to direct where and when development should proceed within the City and is built on the following principles: • Compact growth will occur along the TH 55 corridor to ensure the preservation of the rural heart of the City. • Growth will proceed in an east -west pattern to develop efficiently the City's infrastructure, including sewer and water. • The City shall promote contiguous growth within the urban service areas to provide efficient and cost-effective services to residents. • Growth should encompass a balance of land uses to provide residential and business areas for development throughout the planning period. • The staging plan identifies staged increments of 5-year periods and provides some flexibility between adjacent staging periods. -Development Flexibility shall be limited to a maximum of two years prior to one staging increment beyond the existing staging period for residential/mixed use and five years prior to the existing staging period for commercial/business/industrial uses. The flexibility, and will be tied to an incentive based points system (see Chapter 7; Growth Strategy, Page 7 - 4). These principles are developed based on known development constraints related to existing water and sewer infrastructure. When development is proposed, the City will review the staging plan for consistency with the water and sewer plans attached as appendices to this document. The following are some of the constraints to be considered when guiding development: • There is presently capacity for approximately 160 additional water units through 2009, which needs to include a variety of growth options over the short-term planning timeline. The construction of additional wells and water storage facility will increase the availability of water units. • The City's sewer infrastructure has capacity for approximately 2,000 additional units that is expected to be adequate through at least 2015. • The City plans on developing the water system to match the Guide Plan which stages growth through 2030 and may include the development of a well field in the western area of the urban service boundary that may allow growth near Loretto. • Sewer improvements will be required to meet 2030 projection population growth. The following table describes the land use allocation by 5-year staging increments and is a guide for the City when developing infrastructure and future planning efforts.

The MU-B "Existing 2008" acreage is based on the approximate area which has been developed consistent with the Objectives of the MU-B land use. The staging plan supports the timing and planning for future improvements and recognizes the existing limitations of water and sewer systems in 2007.
