Sooping Document Northfork Planned Unit Development Page 6 III. IV. I. Density The Metropolitan Council has stated its concerns regarding the residential density of the proposed development. The residential density of the completed project will be approximately 1 residential unit for each 4.9 acres. In 1985, the Ramsey City Council adopted Resolution #85-82 which establishes a policy for calculating residential densities in the rural area of the City. This develo~ent is consistent with the policy outlined in this resolution. Assess relevant guidelines controlling the density of the develou~ent and to assess the impact of the development. J. Noise ~his development has the potential to increase noise levels in the area. ~: To assess the increase in noise levels due to the develofment and to determine whether the increase is a significant factor. TIME LIMI~ No special time limits have been designated for this EIS. PERMI~ There will be no permits for which information will be gathered concurrently with this EIS. As the project will be developed in iahases over time, permits will be applied for as they are required. No reoord of decision will be required. Listed below are alternatives to the proposed development that should be considered in the ElS for this development. 1. Relocate the access to the development fr~m Trunk Highway 10/169. Access could be relocated to another existing access point from the highway and that intersection could be expanded/improved to handle the increased traffic. Access could also be relocated to a different point along the highway which would not interfere with the traffic movements of the weigh station. 2. Allow the area to develop without any planned unit develoFment oontrols and planning. Development of single family residential units would occur randomly and most likely, would not preserve much, if any, open sp~ce on the site. (~he "no-action" alternative)
