I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />CASE # <br /> <br />CHARGE FOR TOPOGRAPHIC MAPPING <br />By: Steve Jankowski, City Engineer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />In 1994, the Cit3 of Ramsey had two-foot interval topographic mapping prepared for the <br />southeastern qua, [rant of the City which is the area most rapidly developing. In addition to <br />being useful to :afl for a multitude of purposes, such as the preparation of the ~ainage <br />study, this mapp~tng has been extremely useful in assisting staff and developers with the <br />platting of new subdivisions. It was the intention at the time the mapping was authorized <br />that a portion oflthe cost be recovered by collecting a fee from developers at the time of <br />platting. Surrou,hding communities including Andover and Coon Rapids have instituted <br />such a charge. ]~e advised that a charge of $15 per acre for mapping has been established <br />in the City's Sc!aedule of Rates, Fees and Charges which was adopted in November. <br />Collection of th~ fee, on 1,455 gross acres within the area of the MUSA for which we <br />have mapping, Will result in revenue of $21,823 to offset the mapping cost of $30,000. <br />This charge wil[~ be acknowledged and collected as a Stage 2 cost on all development <br />agreements. <br /> <br />Committee Action: <br /> <br />None required. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br /> <br />City Engineer [ <br />City AdministratOr <br />Finance Officer i <br />Zoning Administrator <br />RB: 05/23/95 <br /> <br />/jmt <br /> <br /> <br />
