Case 3 ~ <br />DISCUSSION OF ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS IN THE CITY OF RAMSEY <br /> By: Amy Geisler, Community Development Department <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Committee Member Dvorak requested the Housing Committee discuss the status of <br />architectural standards that currently exis~ in City Code, particularly as it relates to <br />exterior color. One concern is that without some kind of control in place, new housing in <br />the city could be architecturally very similar. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />Current City Code does not specifically address the color of new housing in the City of <br />Ramsey. The new residential zoning districts were approved by the Cky Council in June <br />2002. Council will be revisiting the residential districts in the next few months for a <br />number of reasons, including the need to update requirements for architectural standards <br />in new developments. The Housing Committee may wish to make a recommendation to <br />the Council on the best way to approach architectural standards in City Code. <br /> <br />RI-lC Action: <br /> <br />None required. <br /> <br />Review Checklist: <br />City Administrator <br />Community Development Director <br />Associate Planner <br /> <br />RHC: 6.19.03 <br /> <br /> <br />
