CITY OF RAMSEY LAND USE APPLICATION <br />TECHNICAL REVIEW FILE <br />DATE <br />2.24.17 <br />PROJECT ADDRESS <br />OUTLOT A, MEADOWBROOK <br />PROJECT. TITLE <br />COVENANT <br />MEADOWS PRELIMINARY PLAT <br />ESCROW # <br />DEPARTMENT: <br />Police Department <br />TECHNICAL REVIEWER: <br />Name: Tim Frankfurth <br />Phone: 763-433-9846 <br />Email: tfrankfurth@ci.ramsey.mn.us <br />Public Safety Review of Proposed Development: <br />The Police Department has no issues with the development itself; however, some concern was raised with regard to <br />access to the development as the area is already a one in/one out accessed neighborhood. That access point is around <br />Rum River Hills golf course from Highway 47. <br />The Covenant Meadows preliminary plat is proposing twelve (12) lots for this development and while it would add <br />additional people to an emergency response scenario, public safety does not view the proposed development as an <br />additional risk over and above the risk already present due to the singular access point from Highway 47 for the entire <br />neighborhood. The proposed development provides for a westward roadway that may eventually lead to a connection <br />back out to Highway 47 that would provide a second access point and lessen the risk in relation to an emergency <br />response due to the secondary access point. It remains to be seen if MnDOT would be supportive of such a connection <br />that would result in another access onto Highway 47. <br />
