Holm also noted that Mr. Menkveld's proposed P.U.D. to develop properties <br />for home occupations seemed like a good idea and it would provide a buffer <br />area between residential and industrial. Mr. Holm stated that several <br />years ago it was difficult to sell residential property in Ramsey because <br />interest rates and energy costs were high and specific neighborhoods may <br />have had issues particular to them. Mr. Holm stated that it would be <br />beneficial for Ramsey to take an aggressive approach to development, <br />however, development needs to be controlled and the City needs to plan for <br />development along the Hwy. #10 corridor. With regards to parks and trails <br />in Ramsey, Mr. Holm stated that most of the parks seem like outlots and <br />unusable land. Mr. Holm stated that open spaces are good but it takes <br />money to have those open spaces; he is not aware of the level of use of <br />parks but the City should be working towards a trail system. Regarding the <br />landfill, Mr. Holm stated that he is against burying trash because of the <br />potential for contamination. Although the landfill has improved it's image <br />visually, the height needs to be limited. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />The interview session adjourned at 8:20 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Sylvia Frolik <br />Secretary <br /> <br /> n~e ~orrzs ~ <br />C ~mmunity Devdlopment Direc <br /> <br />tot <br /> <br />Planning & Zoning Commission/April 14, 1987 <br /> <br />Page 2 of 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
