Links to additional information can be found at www.cityoframsey.com/ComprehensivePlan. <br />The release of these forecasts underscores the importance to participate in the upcoming citizen engagement process <br />scheduled for March 20, 2014 (see item below). The City Council desires that this process be a smart, citizen -focused process <br />whereby community input forms our participation in the regional planning cycle, rather than reacting to these forecasts and <br />building a future land use map based on said forecasts. By developing a Future Land Use Map in advance of an official <br />response to these forecasts, the City is in a better position to develop a quality response based on resident and stakeholder <br />feedback. <br />5,906 <br />Households <br />8,033 <br />13,000 <br />18,510 <br />Population Employment <br />23,668 <br />32,800 <br />4,008 <br />4,779 7,600 <br />For more information, please contact Tim Gladhill, Development Services Manager, at 763-576-4308 or <br />tgladhill@cityoframsey.com. <br />Ramsey2040: What Will Make Ramsey Thrive as a Balanced Community? <br />Ramsey is home to a diverse land use and tax base. The <br />City desires to check in with residents and stakeholders as <br />we look at how the community will evolve over the next <br />several years. Where will opportunities for residential, <br />shopping, and employment exist? Where will areas remain <br />as they are today? How will Ramsey make connections to <br />these areas? How will the area around your home or <br />business look in the future? <br />Thursday, March 20, 2014, at 6:00 p.m. <br />Ramsey Municipal Center, Alexander Ramsey Room <br />For more information, please visit <br />www.cityoframsey.com/ComprehensivePlan or contact <br />Tim Gladhill, Development Services Manager, at 763- <br />576-4308 or tgladhill@cityoframsey.com. <br />nu mrniS <br />NV Er EnEWA <br />was...
