The plat is proposed to consist of a combination of commercial and multi-family development. Block 1' , ~ 1 7 acres in siz~_.e _a~:d is proposed to be developed with six !2-unit/ .~e~enfial ~.To de~O~-l~p-av~at densit-~,'-w-o-u'q~t~-~hi~e-arezoningfrom-B~-I Busin-e~s tO MR (~,e~R_.e_s_i_d.en)ial). MR allows for a maximum density of 15 units per acre. A substantial amount of off ;Street parking area would also be required and may impact the number of units feasible on the parcel. City Code requires 1.5 parking spaces for each one bedroom unit and additional 1/2 parking space for each additional bedroom. Block 2 and 3!: total approximately 6 acres and are proposed to be platted and developed with commercial lots, which is permitted under B-1 Business zoning. The proposed lots would meet minimum lot sizes for the B- 1 Business District. It appears that the subject property may be in the Scenic River Overlay District and should be reviewed by DNR. If the plat prOCeeds to preliminary plat, it will be scheduled for a review by the Park and Recreation Commission prior to the preliminary plat public hearing. The plat is proposed to be served by municipal water and sanitary sewer. The developers would have to petition the City for those improvements. Observations: On February 27, 1991, the City of Ramsey received an application for River's }lend 3rd Addtion which consisted of a combination of single family urban residential and commercial development. On March 5, 1991, the Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the proposed sketch plan for River's Bend 3rd-Addition and recommended that the developer proceed to preliminary plat approval contingent upon compliance with the City Engineer's review letter dated February 27, 1991, the elimination of the proposed east/west street providing access to St. Francis Blvd., and planning for the northerly intersection with County Road 5 and Hwy. #47 in accordance with the County Highway Department plans for that intersection. On May 17, 1991, the city of Ramsey received a revised sketch plan for River's Bend 3rd Addition which consisted of commercial and multi-family residential development. The name of the proposed plat was also changed to River's Bend West.
