The City of Ramsey 2030 Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 5: Land use under Future <br /> Land Use 2. The General plan b. Low Density Residential reads: <br /> b)Low Density Residential <br /> Areas guided Low Density Residential must have urban services before development can take place. <br /> These areas will average 3 units per acre and contain single family, detached dwellings. <br /> Where Low Density Residential is directly adjacent to areas guided Rural Developing that contain 2.5 <br /> acre lots, strategies for density transitioning will be employed. This means that while an area of Low <br /> Density Residential may average 3 units per acre, those lots directly adjacent to <br /> 2.5 acre lots will be closer in size to 2.5 acres in order to provide an effective transition that maintains <br /> the existing character of the neighborhood. Screening methods, such as landscaping must also be <br /> employed to transition between very low density areas and urban lots. <br /> The City of Ramsey 2030 Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 5: Land use under 4. <br /> Future Land Use Categories, c) Urban Residential reads: <br /> It is the intention of this plan to assure compatibility between future urban housing and existing <br /> residential developments by establishing some form of transition between existing single family homes <br /> and future (new) urban development. Areas where transitions are necessary are primarily (but not <br /> exclusively) located along the edges of the urban services boundary and are to be served by municipal <br /> sewer and water. <br /> The City of Ramsey 2030 Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 5: Land use under 4. <br /> Future Land Use Categories, Low Density Residential Performance Criteria reads: <br /> 3. Higher intensity housing shall have direct access to major roadways (local collectors) so excessive <br /> traffic is not routed through local streets and lower density neighborhoods. <br /> 6. Where possible and practical, traffic generated by new development shall be routed to collector <br /> streets rather than through adjacent local neighborhood streets. <br /> 8. New development that is adjacent to existing single- family detached development shall be <br /> compatible in density and type with existing and planned development. <br /> References: <br /> http://www.city-datacom/city/Ramsey-Minnesota.htmi <br /> http://www.citVoframsey.com/sites/default/files/documents/Planning/ComPlan/ <br /> Chapter%2005%20-%20Land%20Use%20FINAL.pdf <br />
