Shoreland In order to control the development and utilization of shoreland along protected waters thereby preserving the water quality, natural characteristics, economic values and the general health, safety and welfare, the following waters in the city limits have been given a shoreland management classification. These protected waters within the city limits have been classified by the Commissioner of Natural Resources as follows: Natural Environment Lakes DNR I.D. # 1. Lake Eddy 2-109 2. Itasca 2-110 3.

The purpose of the Shoreland Overlay District is to control the utilization of shoreland areas and to preserve the quality and natural character of these protected waters within the City. The shoreland overlay districts are shown on the City's Mississippi/Rum River Overlay Districts Map. Boundaries of the overlay districts can be determined by scaling distances off the official environmental overlay map. All wetlands on the National Wetlands Inventory map are shown on Figure 7. The National Wetlands Inventory Map is not all inclusive, wetlands exist in the City of Ramsey that are not shown on the map. Each site proposed for development must be evaluated for wetlands as required in City Code. Section IV October 21, 2015 Page 15
