On March 12, 1991, City Staff issued a response to Metro Council and EQB concerns. The response included the following information: that final plat recording is contingent upon Phase II of the MUSA expansion, a vegetation protection plan would indicate that Outlot E is a scenic easement for preservation of vegetation, a final proposal for park dedication and trail alignment consistent with Anoka County's decisions, explanation that the area possibly affected by airport safety zoning has been planned in a way to accommodate either single family or multi-family development, a preliminary phasing plan that is in accordance with Ramsey's 500 REC limit. On April 5, 1991, the City received a letter from B.B. Chapman, the project manager for Faye 2nd Addition. He indicated that the County Parks and Recreation Department had initiated a land exchange with Faye Construction to acquire property east of the Kelly property and adjacent to the river for property in the northeast corner of the Regional Park to eventually provide an exit from Faye Addition to align with Ramsey Blvd. to the north. By phone, Mr. Chapman also indicated that the County Parks Department had also initiated action to acquire the Kelly southwest of Faye 2nd Addition for incorporation into the County Regional Park. On April 10, 1991, the Park and Recreation Commission reviewed a sketch plan to relocate the proposed trail to the south. The realignment to the south was a result of the County's action to acquire the Kelly property and a portion of Faye Constmction's property. The realignment to the south is also in accordance with Metro Council's recommendation of February 19, 1991. The Commission approved the realignment of the trail to the south. At the date of this writing, Ramsey has still not received any written communications from Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department regarding the preliminary plat since the land exchange was initiated. We have also not received word from Metro Council or EQB regarding City StafFs response to their concerns. Mn/DOT has not issued comment at this point and the plat is also subject to a review by the Lower Rum River Water Management Organization, which will be accomplished prior to final plat approval. Recommendation: Council Action: Motion to: Approve/deny the preliminary plat of Faye 2nd Addition contingent upon compliance with the.Ci~ Engineer's review letter dated February 28, 1991 and favorable reviews from all remew~ng agencies.
