Parcel Categories •. .- Abandon Trail Parcels that were originally dedicated or purchased for building trails. The trails no longer are needed, are feasible or physically possible. Cemetery NA Drainage/Wetland Parcels that either are completely covered by wetlands, ponds or lakes; or parcels that are used for storm water ponds and storm water drainage. EDA The parcels are owned by the City of Ramsey. However, the Ramsey EDA controls the properties on an internal basis and also markets the properties. Existing/Future ROW These properties are either existing Right of Way (ROW) or planned for future ROW. Multiple Uses/Categories These parcels contain multiple different parcel categories. Staff felt that 11 categories were enough. Subdividing properties more may make understanding the maps challenging. Municipal Use These parcels contain municipal uses. For example, former city halls, current water stations, current pump houses, public works facilities, etc. Open Space Open space is a very broad category that arguably could have a hand in several other categories. Generally, open spaces are parcels that the city acquired at the time of development and are set aside for a public purpose. This category includes both legally dedicated and undedicated pieces of open land. This category also includes several lots that contain large portions of wetland. For more information on what dedicated vs. undedicated means see the "Potential Land For Sale" document. Park/Trail This category is set aside for parks and trails that are currently being used.
