The map depicts areas of environmental concern where specific protection policies will need to be discussed. Alternative Development Scenarios Tappen reviewed two maps showing the population/development in St. Croix County in 20 to 25 years. Utilizing the projections in the Trends analysis, staff developed a status quo scenario and a compact development scenario. A third scenario is also being developed but was not yet available. The status quo scenario depicts a traditional spread of development, aboutincorporated areas and 50% in unincorporated areas, across the County. The compact scenario depicts using policies to shift development to reduce the amount of land consumed, with 90% at an urban scale and 10% at a rural scale. All scenarios assume the County will manage the type, location and density of the projected growth. Not the amount of growth, which remains the same in all scenarios. Committee members requested information on all inputs to the scenarios and maps showing the development at a smaller scale. Fodroczi stated that this is a critical step in the plan development and an additional meeting may be necessary. The next Committee meeting was set for March 20th at 9:00 a.m. Chairperson Dorsey requested that the Planning, Zoning &Parks Committee meet following the Steering Committee meeting. Motion by Hense, seconded by King to adjourn at 10:25 a.m. Motion carried.
