Hakanson Anderson Assoc., inc. Engineers, Surveyors & Landscape Architects July 27, 1990 Mr. Gerald Zimmerman, Chairman Ramsey Planning & Zoning Commission City of Ramsey 15153 Nowthen Boulevard N.W. Ramsey, MN 55303 Re: Sketch Plan Review of Faye Addition Dear Mr. Zimmerman: We have reviewed the above referenced sketch plan which is located in the R-1U and R-iR residential areas of the City as well as B-1 area. Following is a list of comments resulting from our review of this sketch plan: The proposed plat consists of 76 single family units on 30.4 acres, 68 multi-family lots on 9.7 acres, 47.7 acres of commercial space, 5.4 acres of parkland and 9.8 acres of outlots for a total site acreage of 103 acres. The proposed plat roughly coincides with the site's intended zoning of commercial on the north end and residential on the south end. The zoning map, however, does not indicate any multiple family zones. Thus, rezoning of the property will be required to accommodate an MR use as well as to refine the commercial and single family boundaries. The single family lots vary in width from generally 80 to 100 feet and are generally about 13,000 SF. All of the single family development is in the Mississippi Critical Area which requires a minimum of 20,000 SF lots in non'riparian, sewered areas and a lot width of 90' at the building line. Two outlots are located on the river adjacent to the proposed addition to Anoka County's park. No provision is made for future street extension to the outlots and they would remain undevelopable. o The east portion of the property currently is within the MUSA and the westerly portion has received contingent approval to incorporate into the MUSA. Final MC approval expanding the MUSA has not yet been received. 222 Monroe Street Anoka, Minnesota 55303 612/427-5860 Fax 612/427-3401 13
