CC Regular Session Date: 03/22/2011 By: Tim Gladhill Community Development Item #: 7. 5. Information Title: Introduce Ordinance to Amend City Code Section 117-118 (Town Center) of the Ramsey City Code; Case of City of Ramsey Background: The intent of the proposed ordinance is to make a simple amendment to the title of the section to reflect the new name of the former Ramsey Town Center development, now known as The COR. City Staff anticipates forwarding additional recommendations for amendments to the zoning district in terms of bulk standards, uses, and design guidelines in the near future to reflect work done by the City's Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) to present a revised development plan. The current amendment is needed for some housecleaning purposes related to cleaning up existing agreements tied to the development, such as the Parking Use and Maintenance Agreement (PUMA). Notification: The Public Hearing was properly notified in the Anoka County Union. Observations: The intent of this ordinance is administrative in nature to reflect current naming schemes, processes, and laws. All references to Town Center are renamed The COR. The amendment also reflects the fact that the Architectural Review Board is no longer in existence, thus has not been used in the past several projects, and amends the review process accordingly. Recommendation: The Planning Commission held a Public Hearing on March 3rd and recommended approval of the ordinance Funding Source: Amendments to the zoning code are being handled as part of regular staff duties. Council Action: Motion to introduce ordinance to amend City Code Section 117-118 (Town Center) of the Ramsey City Code.
