<br />Standards
<br />Proposed MRCCA Rules
<br />Existing MRCCA Ordnance
<br />Consistent with WSR, minimize impacts on natural
<br />terrain /landscape.
<br />Private roads, driveways, and parking areas: not within SPZ, BIZ or SIZ; must net structure setbacks, take advantage
<br />of natural screening. Exceptions for water access facilities in SPZ, BIZ, and SIZ.
<br />Public Transportation,
<br />Recreational & Utility
<br />Facilities
<br />Consistent with WSR , minimize visibility, underground
<br />where feasible, roads minimize impacts on natural
<br />terrain and landscape, avoid cuts and fills.
<br />Avoid primary conservation areas, reduce visibility to extent feasible
<br />Stairways. Lifts, Landings
<br />Permit required
<br />Specific dimensional standards for residential lots. Emphasis on limiting visibility
<br />Signs
<br />Don't impair views of the water; signs prohibited in
<br />some areas, other underlying zoning requirements.
<br />Underlying zoning as long as off- premise signs net dimensional and performance standards- Emphasis on limiting
<br />visibility
<br />Bluffs &Slopes
<br />Development and slope alteration prohibited on
<br />slopes > 12%
<br />No structures, impervious surface, lard alteration, and intensive vegetation removal on slopes of 18% and greater -
<br />some exceptions. Development on slopes between 12 %and 18% allowed with conditions.
<br />Vegetation
<br />Prohibits clearcutting on undeveloped islands, slope
<br />or face of bluffs, within 2M ft of OHWL, and within
<br />40ft of bluffline. Requires permit. Blend into views
<br />and maintain continuous natural cover.
<br />Maintain existing vegetation within SIZ, BIZ, SPZ, wetlands, and floodplains- no intensive cleariing some exceptions.
<br />Restoration required for violations.
<br />Stonmwater
<br />Imp surface coverage < =30%. City wide stormwater
<br />plan adopted in 2008. Plan requires development of
<br />controls consistent with MPCA urban BMPs.
<br />Meet state and Metro Council standards, capture first inch rainfall.
<br />Erosion &Sediment
<br />Control
<br />BMPs required for land disturbance> 3,000 sq. ft.
<br />Land Alteration
<br />CUP required for >300 cu yd
<br />Wthin SIZ, > 10 cu yd or > 250 sq ft requires permit; prohibited within BIZ and SPZ, with exceptions. Local permit and
<br />BMPs for rip rap and retaining walls in SIZ, BIZ, SPZ.
<br />lAtigation
<br />Mtigation required for variances, CUPs, & IUPs with impact on corridor resources. Nexus & proportionality.
<br />CUPs &IUPs
<br />Permits required for all structures
<br />Required for mining
<br />Subdivision
<br />Mnimize density through TDR and PUD, establish
<br />continuous trail corridor along river. Allow public
<br />access to river.
<br />For CA-2 District only - smaller lots allowed with additional resource protections (conservation design).
<br />For all CA Districts - open space required for all subdivisions of 3 or more lots. Percentage varies by CA District. 50%in
<br />CA-1 and CA-2; primary conservation areas in CA-3, up to 25%, CA-5, CA-6, CA-7, up to 15%; open space must connect
<br />as part of network.
<br />Subdivision - Dedication
<br />All development in IVRCCA must be done as a PUD
<br />with 50%open space preservation and minimal site
<br />alteration.
<br />Dedication: if 3+ lots or PUD, reasonable portion of land or cash equivalent to be dedicated for riverfront access,
<br />parks, open space, etc within MRCCA
<br />Site Plans
<br />Required for selective or clearcutting.
<br />Site plans containing specific elements are required for variances, CUPS, IUPs, and subdivisions.
<br />Other Overlay Districts
<br />Shoreland, WSR. In 1995 and 2006 city proposed
<br />revisions to do a combined WSR -MRCCA shoreland
<br />overlay, but the city council did not support the 50%
<br />open space requirement for PUDs in WSR.
<br />WSR designation removed
<br />Ramsey: Comparison of Existing IVRCCA Ordinance and Proposed NRCCA Rile Standards
<br />The purpose of this chart is to compare the existing ordinance to the proposed rules on key provisions. DNR staff started completing
<br />iterrs in the column labeled "existing MRCCA district" & "existing NIRCCAordinance" based on the community's web based ordinance.
<br />Corrections and completion of these items will be completed at each meeting.
