Peter Raatikka <br />H~kanson Anderson Associates, Inc. <br />292 Monroe Street <br />Anoka, Minnesota 55303 <br /> <br />Re: Ramsey Environmental Protection Ordinance <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Raatikka: <br /> <br />I have reviewed the city's Environmental Protection Ordinance, which <br />contains the Mississippi River Critical Area Standards, for compliance <br />with State standards. The ordinance is very complete and is in need of <br />only minor revisions to be fully compliant. Following is a list of <br />deficiencies and revisions: <br /> <br />Page lg ZC: the last line should read 'ordinary high water" <br />instead of 'normal" to be consistent with the definition section. <br /> <br />The maximum building height of 35' ts listed for marinas but it should <br />also be listed along with the other dimensional requirements on page 25. <br /> <br />J <br /> <br />Standards for tnpervious surface coverage should be included in <br />Sect. 170.0112GA. <br /> <br />A mintmu~ septic tank or soil absorption syste~ setback for a <br />recreational river of 75' is required and should be mentioned in <br />Sect. 170.0112G. <br /> <br />The standards for sewered lots should be listed with the unsewered <br />lots. Minimum State standards for sew,red lots in a recreational <br />river district are: <br /> <br />1) Lot size 40,000 sq. ft. riparian, 20,000 sq. ft. non-riparian <br />2) Lot width at building line 125' <br />3) Riparian lot river frontage 125' <br />4) OHW setback 100: bluffltne 20', septic syste~ 7S' <br /> <br />The City can be more restrictive if they choose. <br /> <br />AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER <br /> <br /> <br />
