7) That the City requests the DNR ensure compliance with the City's 2030 Comprehensive <br />Plan, most notably densities consistent with Low Density Residential (LDR) as defined in <br />the plan. <br />8) That the City requests the DNR ensure the ability to expand roadways to meet safety and <br />capacity needs without additional, burdensome review and accept proper environmental <br />studies as evidence of compliance with protection of key resources. <br />9) That the City requests the DNR consider the approved Surface Water Management Plan <br />of the City as sufficient stormwater management plans and allow the City's Engineering <br />Division to implement accepted Best Management Practices (BMPs) without additional <br />review. <br />10) That the City requests the DNR consider alternatives to vegetative buffers for stormwater <br />management and erosion control. <br />11) That the City requests the DNR consider refraining from using a `one size fits all' buffer. <br />Much of Ramsey can be characterized as open prairie lands. Any proposed buffers shall <br />match native canopy cover and existing conditions where feasible. <br />12) That the City requests the DNR consider protecting public and private access to the river. <br />13) That the City requests the DNR ensure that public parks are able to develop that will <br />enhance the experience and protection of the river. <br />In addition, the City is of the belief that we have taken sufficient steps to meet the intent of the MRCCA <br />overlay district, as you can see in the future land use map below. The City believes that if required to <br />provide dedicated open space as part of a conservation subdivision, certain areas should be credited that <br />were designated as park or open space in our Critical Area Plan of our 2030 Comprehensive Plan that was <br />proposed prior to commencing MRCCA rulemaking. <br />City of Ramsey <br />2030 Comprehensive Plan <br />Draft 2030 Land Use Plan <br />0 0.6 Miles <br />L I Ramsey City Limit <br />Q 2030 MUSA Boundary <br />1 Mississippi River Critical Area Boundary <br />Low Density Residential <br />Medium Denstty Residential <br />High Density Residential <br />i w Office Park <br />ni Commercial <br />Moved Use <br />Business Park <br />Public/Quasi-Public <br />Rural Developing <br />Park <br />Right -aGWay <br />Water <br />NWI Welland <br />
