CITY OF RAMSEY CITIZEN ENGAGEMENT GENERAL FRAMEWORK FOR: <br />2040 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE <br />(EACH ELEMENT WILL BE TAILORED TO SPECIFIC ELEMENT NEEDS) <br />PURPOSE: The intent of this document is to establish a GENERAL FRAMEWORK for citizen <br />engagement for the various elements of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update. <br />This has not yet been seen by the Planning Commission nor the City Council. <br />GENERAL FRAMEWORK <br />Each individual element/section/chapter of the Comprehensive Plan Update will <br />follow a similar framework for citizen engagement and public input. <br />Each section will commence by asking the community a question that all can answer. <br />The City will develop alternatives and solutions from the ground up. The City will <br />not lead with alternatives and solutions for the community to react to. Rather, the <br />City will ask the community the broader policy question, compile public input on <br />current conditions and desired goals, then finally develop alternatives and solutions. <br />The alternatives and solutions will first be developed by the community at large, <br />rather than City Council, its advisory boards, and City Staff. <br />Some previous questions asked or feedback sought include, but are not limited to: <br />1. What do you want in your back yard? <br />2. Under what circumstances, if any, would a proposed use be an acceptable <br />use for a City -owned parcel? <br />3. You are invited to discuss appropriate land uses for 167th Avenue Node at <br />Saint Francis Boulevard. <br />4. You are invited to discuss a potential future business park. <br />5. You are invited to participate in the design process for the new Fire Station <br />No. 2. <br />DEFINE TOPIC <br />THATfEDSA <br />SOLUTION <br />ASK THE <br />COMMUNITY A <br />DUESTION <br />WE THE C.ONNANITY <br />DEFINE THE ISSUES <br />ANDALT€RNATIVI <br />PRIORITIZE <br />CONSENSUS <br />AROUND THE <br />ALTERNATIVES <br />DEVELOPAN <br />IMPLEMENTATION <br />PLAN <br />The format will be a three (3) part approach. At times, all three (3) steps may be accomplished in a single <br />session. Other times, these steps may take multiple sessions to complete. The generalized steps include the <br />following: <br />1. Scoping Meeting — Ask the community the question and identify prioritized issues and opportunities <br />2. Develop Alternatives and Solutions — these are to be developed collaboratively <br />3. Agree on Preferred Alternatives and Solutions — develop consensus around results <br />
