LAND USE ISSUES OF ADJACENT LOCAL GOVERNMENTS <br />In December, 1993, RLK Associates surveyed local governments <br />adjacent to the City of Ramsey to determine whether a potential <br />existed for complementary and\or conflicting land uses and land <br />use policies. A summary of these meetings was conveyed to the <br />Planning Commission and City staff in a memorandum dated December <br />27, 1993. <br />The following is a summary of our meetings with local governments <br />adjacent to the City of Ramsey: <br />1. City of Anoka. The City of Anoka has retained a consultant <br />to evaluate the land uses, subdivision requirements and <br />transportation facilities within the Anoka Enterprise Park. <br />The Enterprise Park is located south of TH 116, east of the <br />City of Ramsey and north of TH 10. This study should be <br />monitored due to the residential land uses in the City of <br />Ramsey north of TH 116, and possible industrial land uses in <br />the City of Anoka located south of TH 116. The future land <br />development activities at the intersection of TH 116 and TH <br />47 should be closely monitored due to the potential for <br />future commercial land use growth in the area. <br />Transportation access to and within the Anoka Enterprise <br />Park should be reviewed by the City of Ramsey. The existing <br />Thurston Ave. has the potential to carry a much higher <br />volume of commercial and industrial traffic. Extension of <br />McKinley Street west of Thurston Ave. to Sunfish Lake Blvd. <br />NW has not been endorsed by Anoka but could benefit the City <br />of Ramsey as a north frontage road for TH 10, while also <br />serving the Anoka Enterprise Park. <br />2. City of Champlin. The City of Champlin remains opposed to <br />any bridge in its community that crosses the Mississippi <br />River. The result of this is that the City of Ramsey and <br />the City of Dayton may be the next likely candidates for a <br />Mississippi River crossing. <br />The City of Champlin will submit to the Metropolitan Council <br />a Metropolitan Urban Service Area expansion request in early <br />1994. <br />3. City of Dayton. The City of Ramsey is well aware of the <br />potential location of a bridge crossing the Mississippi <br />River connecting with the City of Dayton. Dayton has formed <br />a task force to examine this issue and to determine if such <br />Working Paper #1 <br />City of Ramsey Comprehensive Plan Update <br />Land Use Element 18 <br />
