Case #4: 1996 Game Fair <br /> <br />City Administrator Schroeder stated that each year the City receives a few calls expressing <br />concerns about diff~erent aspects of the Game Fair. He stated that he and the Mayor met with Mr. <br />Delaney last year ~d suggested meeting again this year. He noted that Eric Miller, manager of <br />Armstrong KenneL, is present. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Peterson and seconded by Councilmember Zimmerman to direct that <br />the Mayor and thO.. City Administrator meet with the neighbors and Mr. Chuck Delaney, or a <br />representative, of the Game Fair and work through any problems. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Hardin, Councilmembers Peterson, Zimmerman and Beyer. <br />Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Case #5: Planning Commission Appointment <br /> <br />This case was rem0('ed from the agenda. <br /> <br />Case #6: <br /> <br />PrOposed Ordinance to Amend Chapter 9 (ZOning and Subdivision of <br />Laird) of the Ramsey City Code Regarding Structure Setbacks from <br />Thoroughfares <br /> <br />City Engineer Janlm. wski commented that over the last several months, City Council and staff have <br />worked on the setSack ordinance. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the <br />wording and are regommending enactment of the proposed ordinance. The current ordinance states <br />that structures must be set back 110 feet from centerline of roadway or 50 feet from property line, <br />whichever is greater. The proPosed ordinance requires 60 feet from center of road right-of-way <br />plus the applicableS, local setback .(front, side or rear yard as established by City Code). The 60 feet <br />from centerline o~ right-of-waY preserves a 120 foot wide corridor, which the County has <br />determined is a sufficient area in which to construct any future improvements. Beyond that, the <br />local applicable se~ack should be appropriate along County roads as well as the local streets. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Peterson and seconded by Councilmember Beyer to introduce the <br />ordinance amending the structure setback from thoroughfares to 60 feet from centerline plus the <br />local applicable setback. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Hardin,' Councilmembers Peterson, Beyer and Zimmerman. <br />Voting No: None. '-Absent: Councilmember Beahen. <br /> <br />Case ~'/: Police Facility Update <br /> <br />City Administrator~Schroeder reported that he has been "shopping" around for inexpensive ways to <br />get sewer and water to the municipal site. He proposed an option that would take the extension <br />from the southern ~ost street from the proposed Brandseth Addition and running it across vacant <br />City property. Us|ng that alignment, eight residential lots could be developed. If such a plan is <br />pursued, that would, allow for eventual connection through three existing rural lots. This proposal <br />allows for connection on both the north and the south. If City Council feels this route is <br />appropriate to take,! they could direct staff to plan for this expansion. The other option would be to <br />use that alignment to provide for disposal of that property but not to dispose of it at this time. <br /> <br />Councilmember Peterson felt we should hold onto that property at this time although he is not <br />opposed to getting rid of it later. He added that he would also like to see some estimates of cost to <br />bring the utilities in from County Road #5. <br /> <br />City Council/February 27, 1996 <br /> Page 9 of 13 <br /> <br /> <br />
