DATE <br />PROJECT. TITLE <br />ESCROW # <br />DEPARTMENT: <br />CITY OF RAMSEY LAND USE APPLICATION <br />TECHNICAL REVIEW FILE <br />11/30/12 <br />PROJECT ADDRESS <br />SEASONS OF RAMSEY <br />113355 <br />Planning Division <br />Name: Tim Gladhill <br />TECHNICAL REVIEWER: Phone: 763-576-4308 <br />Email: taladhill(a,ci.ramsev.mn.us <br />TBD - MULTIPLE <br />We offer the following comments regarding your site plan and plat submittal: <br />General: The Subject Property is located north of Bunker Lake Blvd. and east of the extension <br />of Town Center Drive. A total of 8.08 acres are contained within the proposed plat. The <br />proposed development consists of 50 townhome units. This is a re -plat of a portion of TOWN <br />CENTER GARDENS 3rd ADDITION. The result of the Plat is a net decrease in the number of <br />units originally forecasted for the entire 8.08 acres. <br />Due to Anoka County Plat naming requirements, the name of the Plat will need to be amended to <br />Seasons of Ramsey. The name of a Plat cannot lead with the word `The'. <br />Zoning/Density: The project area is located in the COR-4 Neighborhood District, which is <br />intended to include a full range of housing types. The District allows for residential uses at a net <br />density of up to 10 units per acre. The Sketch Plan indicates a net density of 6.25 units per acre. <br />Lots: The plat is proposing to re -subdivide portions of RAMSEY TOWN CENTER 3RD <br />ADDITION into 50 units. City Code requires that units intended for separate ownership shall be <br />subdivided individually through the platting process. In this case, the development is proposed to <br />be under single -ownership. Nonetheless, each individual unit shall still have a separate municipal <br />utility connection; that being that one single water service cannot service an entire building, <br />unless otherwise approved by the previous plat approval. <br />Setbacks: The COR-4a Zoning District requires the following setbacks: <br />Front yard <br />Side yard <br />Rear yard <br />0 to 25 feet as measured from building front to edge of sidewalk; <br />None, unless required by building code; <br />None, unless required by building code. <br />Due to the configuration of existing roadways and built infrastructure, it is difficult to for all <br />individual units to be within this build -to line. The Design Framework for The COR states that at <br />least 60% of the building be within this build -to line. Staff will address the required review <br />related to setbacks with the Preliminary Plat. <br />
