A Study Group process recently completed, focused on the potential of redeveloping <br />this campus as a data center. A data center is essentially a warehousing for storage of computer servers used for data storage. <br />Ultimately, the City Council chose to end further review of this campus for redevelopment of a data center and directed Staff <br />to begin a process to amend the City's Comprehensive Plan to allow for future redevelopment of this site as a single-family <br />residential development. <br />Future Business Park <br />The City's Economic Development Authority (EDA) has been exploring areas of the City that could serve as a future business <br />park. The City's existing industrial parks have all but reached their capacity of developable area for new/existing businesses to <br />build in Ramsey. The EDA has been working with the Planning Commission to identify an area west of Armstrong Boulevard <br />to amend our Comprehensive Plan to facilitate areas for future, private business development. This need for developable <br />space is demonstrated by our businesses stating their need, in the next 2-7 years, of over 365,000 square feet. Please keep in <br />mind this is the demand stated solely by the business visits made in late 2013/2014—the demand is forecasted to be much <br />greater. One such lead has made active progress on securing a site to house 75-100k square feet in the Future Business Park. <br />Highway 10 Access Planning Study <br />In 2013, the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) initiated the Highway 10 Access Planning Study. The <br />purpose of the study is to identify incremental, lower -cost options to improve the condition of Highway 10. Mn/DOT is <br />working to complete the study in the coming weeks for consideration by the cities of Ramsey and Anoka.
