Although the plan does not discontinue the existing commercial <br />uses along the Highway 10 corridor, it does suggest a corridor study be <br />completed to assess the impacts of strip commercial development on <br />Highway 10. Future commercial development and redevelopment should <br />focus on key nodes along the corridor (rather than span an entire <br />corridor) and serve the travelers along the corridor as well as adjacent <br />neighborhood residents. (see chapter VI for a further discussion on a <br />Highway 10 corridor study). The commercial development along <br />Highway 47 is more of a commercial node pattern. This land use plan <br />supports existing commercial nodes that serve neighborhoods and <br />commuters particularly at the intersections of County Road 116 and 153rd <br />Avenue. <br /> <br />The locations of existing Places to Shop within the community (at major <br />intersections such as County Road 116 and Highway 47 or along major <br />roadways such as Highway 10) play an important role in what types of <br />uses go there. The predominant use is gas/convenient stores that serve <br />commuters. Other uses include fast food or sit down restaurant, grocery, <br />small-scale retail trade and services such as drive through banking, real <br />estate, legal services, dry-cleaning, or day care. The Mixed-Use land use <br />(defined later) is also intended to provide shopping and services. <br /> <br />Ramsey Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br />Page V-21 <br /> <br /> <br />
