Development Manager Lazan commented fees have been set up, structured and approved by the <br />HRA. The first home that has come forward is for an end user builder to build on one of these <br />lots. <br />The Commission questioned if the fees will be paid by the HRA to the City of Ramsey. <br />Development Manager Lazan noted the HRA will take on all fees associated with the <br />development so as the lots are sold, the City will receive the development fees. Also, the HRA <br />will incur the development costs and defer the fees to each lot sale when they get paid. <br />Senior Planner Gladhill noted that the fees will be paid back over time. <br />Commissioner Brauer questioned the fees on a house -by -house basis. He asked about putting in <br />infrastructure and how that would be paid for. <br />Senior Planner Gladhill stated the infrastructure is for downstream and ensures capacity. He <br />noted the SAC and WAC fees will be collected during the building permit stage. <br />Commissioner Field asked about the margin. <br />Development Manager Lazan noted the HRA owns the property, has put together a number of <br />performas, and it is substantially a break even proposition. <br />Commissioner Van Scoy questioned the storm pond and the purpose considering it was steep. <br />Development Manager Lazan showed a rendering of the pond and stated it provides for a <br />maximum slope down and the safety bench as required. The intent was to have water in the pond <br />and to maximize house pads due to shortage of materials. <br />Commissioner Van Scoy questioned the storm water retention pond and the capacity proposed. <br />Development Manager Lazan noted the slope is required to get to water elevation and anything <br />below doesn't add capacity but does improve water quality. <br />Discussion ensued regarding the pond and its depth in regard to safety. <br />Commissioner Brauer noted that for depth such as this pond, usually safety fences are installed. <br />Development Manager Lazan stated the acceptable depth and safety bench required for ponds. <br />Commissioners questioned if the depth of the storm water retention pond is the same as <br />everywhere in the City of Ramsey. <br />Planning Commission /June 19, 2012 <br />Page 3 of 5 <br />
