From the meeting

Connie Fortin of Bolton & Menk presented low salt design standards and a low salt design checklist. The presentation said the standards are projected to be a regional norm by 2030 and an industry standard by 2035, and that cities like Bloomington, Richfield, and Eden Prairie are already using checklist elements in planning. This is a pre-RFP policy and design-practice signal tied to future watershed and municipal project review.

The next useful discussion is how member cities will adopt or expand the standards.
