Parks <br />The City is actively working towards a future pedestrian overpass over Highway 10 known as Mississippi Skway. <br />A component of that request is to relocate the designation of the Central Anoka County Regional Trail through The <br />COR along Center Street. The preferred alignment is indicated in the revised draft. <br />Sub -District Boundaries <br />As the City of Ramsey Housing and Redevelopment Authority has approved a revised Development Plan, the <br />Planning Commission must consider updates to the City's Official Controls (Zoning Ordinance). The Sub -District <br />Map has been revised to reflect the preferred Development Plan (Version 6.1). The only change is to amend the <br />COR TWO Plat from COR-2 Retail Sub -District to COR-2b Sub -District based on preferred land uses and parking <br />needs. <br />Parking <br />Based on experience with existing users in the retail area of the development, Staff recommends amending parking <br />regulations for restaurant users in areas without planned parking ramps to allow additional parking spaces beyond <br />the maximum allowed. Rather than basing parking requirements on square footage, the revised draft proposes to <br />base requirements on number of seats. <br />Funding Source: <br />Preparation of the amendments are being handled by a combination of regular Staff duties and professional <br />services. The City of Ramsey Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) approved a scope of services to <br />complete the project. <br />Staff Recommendation: <br />The Planning Commission met on Thursday, October 4, 2012 to hold a Public Hearing and recommended approval <br />of the proposed ordinance, which includes the revised Design Framework and Master Sign Plan with the following <br />amendments: <br />1. Adjust parking calculation for restaurant users. <br />2. Allow adjustment of COR-2b Sub -District boundary to include all users surrounding the Sunwood Drive <br />Roundabout to retain consistent design. <br />Committee Action: <br />Motion to adopt the proposed ordinance, which includes the revised Design Framework and Master Sign Plan. <br />Attachments <br />REDLINED Design Framework <br />Proposed Development Plan Version 6.1 <br />Site Location Map - Master Sign Plan <br />Proposed Appendix B to Design Framework <br />Proposed Ordinance <br />DRAFT Planning Commission Minutes dated October 4, 2012 <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Kurt Ulrich Kurt Ulrich 10/18/2012 10:49 AM <br />Tim Gladhill (Originator) Tim Gladhill 10/18/2012 11:47 AM <br />Form Started By: Tim Gladhill Started On: 10/08/2012 <br />Final Approval Date: 10/18/2012 <br />
