CO~,ENTS & PROPOSED CHANGES TO DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES PRELIHINA~Y-C[ASSIFICATIONS OF 'SHORELANDS IN RAMSEY, MIflHE'SOIFA I.D. #2-104 - Rogers Lake This shoreland is located in the northeast corner of the City which is not scheduled to have municipal utilities. Therefore, the City agrees with the preliminary classification of a natural environment water. I.D. #2-109 - Eddy Lake and I'.D. #2-110 - Lake Itasca Both of these shorelands are in the western part of the City and presently undeveloped. This area is not scheduled for municipal utilities in the near future. Therefore, the City agrees with the preliminary classification of natural environment waters. I.D. #2-111 - Je~lens Marsh This shoreland is located north of the Greenland Hills and Greenland Hills Plat 2. The lots in these plats, which abutt on the shoreland, are consistent with recreational development waters lot standards of one'acre for unsewered area. I I I I If the Department of Natural Resource's preliminary classification of natural environment waters is maintained, the lots abutting the shoreland could not be subdivided at a later date as originally planned. The City's ordinances currently require building on only one-half of a lot to allow for future subdivision. In addition, the projected flows in both the City's Comprehensive Storm Drainage Plan and Sanitary Sewer Plan are based on the future subdivison of one-acre lots. The Comprehensive Drainage Plan proposes to utilize this wetland as a retention pond with an outlet to the Mississippi River. In review of aerial photographs and the area in general, this wetland does not have standing water for long periods of time; therefore, the City requests this wetland be deleted from the list of shorelands. I.D. #2-112 - Pond in PeltZer Addition m This proposed shoreland is located just outside the City's Urban Area in the Peltzer Addition. ! m m As in the case of the Jeglens Marsh, it is surrounded by one-acre lots which are proposed for resubdivision at the time muniCipal utilities are installed. This shoreland is also proposed to be maintained as a retention pond in the City's Comprehensive Drainage Plan. To be consis:ent with existing development, the City requests that this shoreland be reclassified as recreational development waters.
