That's the League's notice.

Hopefully there might be a Metropolitan Council person there to explain all the breakneck growth that we in the north metro experienced having pushed and promoted by those folks without regard by them for the water availability question and the aquifer's status - with those folks only pushing their narrow internal goals in setting quotas that nature might be unable to sustain.

Only recently has Met Council given the problem attention, but in a "circle the wagons and fight the savages" manner, more CYA than illumination and articulation of worthwhile policy.

It has to be a big-time embarrassment for that contingent of "expert" little planners and their expert little plans and their always excessive population growth projections and quotas (inflated so that more development opportunity is available for developer cherry picking and playing locale against locale to see which prostitutes its future more readily).
