The Met Council will be issuing the system statements for all the communities... that essentially kicks off the 2050 comprehensive plan 10-year cycle.
If I was going to anticipate an area where we will have to come back and have further discussion, it may be along those lines of where is the land being designated in different areas.
I wasn't envisioning I don't think we can actually rezone as part of this process, but we can create the district and have that discussion.
