6. If the differential is significant, a meeting with Metropolitan Council staff to determine the consistency of lower densities with the Regional Blueprint. It will also be our intent to determine the Metropolitan Council's likely response in the event there is a significant reduction in density within MUSA. 7. Preparation of the draft report with findings. This will be a written and graphic report, which illustrates the baseline conditions and the probable effects of the Charter Amendment. 8. Review of the draft report with the Planning Commission and City Council (two joint -meetings estimated). 9. Preparation of the final graphic and written report. 10. Meetings with the team up to five (5) times as follows: • Initial meeting on October 30 ' Review of the vacant land inventory/discuss interpretation of Charter Amendment • Review impacts, if any • Review draft report findings • Fifth meeting as needed 11. The provision of guidance or the drafting of an ordinance which would create consistency between the Charter Amendment and the zoning ordinance (optional service). If it can be demonstrated that the best approach is to incorporate the Charter Amendment into the City's zoning ordinance, the Consultant will provide professional assistance in drafting such regulations. HKGi will bill the City of Ramsey on an hourly plus expenses basis in an amount in the range of Twelve Thousand to Seventeen Thousand Dollars ($12,000 to $17,000) (hourly rate schedule attached). The reasons for the fee range is that there are meetings that the City may not elect to have HKGi participate in. The number of parcels that will need to be evaluated will also be a factor in how much fee will be required. We look forward to working with you on this very important project.
