(5) Whether the county has proposed measures for cooperative action between the city or village and the county to address matters of concern with regard to the sewerage disposal system and plant or plants, its development, or related development issues;

(6) Whether the city or village is willing to proceed with the development of the proposed sewerage disposal system and plant or plants as its own project or in cooperation with the county;

(7) Whether the land development projects occurring as a result of the development of the sewerage disposal system and plant or plants will require additional infrastructure expenditures to support the proposed industrial or commercial development and the impact of such required infrastructure expenditures upon then current city or village and county capital improvement plans; and

(8) Whether the projected commercial or industrial development occurring as a result of the development of the sewerage disposal system and plant or plants will have a positive or adverse impact upon the economy of the city or village and the county.
