The full story

The Planning Commission continued a public hearing on a proposed comprehensive-plan amendment to modify Maps 1, 16 and 17 so 14 Ridge Road could connect to municipal sanitary sewer through the North Oaks Golf Club. City Planner Kendra Lindahl said the proposed connection point is about 740 feet from the property and that the property would need to be added to the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA); any City approval would then require Metropolitan Council review. Staff noted notice was sent to property owners within 350 feet and that adjacent jurisdictions must respond by Nov. 16, 2026.
