outlots. The proposed final plat does not dedicate any new right-of-way and since the plat does not create any buildable lots, grading, drainage, and utility plans are not necessary at this time. The plat does not dedicate any additional easements. All of the drainage and utility easements shown on the final plat were created as part of the Ramsey Town Center Addition. Since there will not be any direct development as part of this final plat, it is staff's position that a Development Agreement is not necessary. The Planning Commission reviewed the sketch plan for Ramsey Town Center 5th Addition and found it acceptable and recommended that the applicant proceed to the final plat stage. Counci hnember Strommen noted the overall purpose for this must relate to the City taking over these lots. She questioned if it makes sense to do this now or at a later time to make sure it is divided correctly. Assistant Community Development Director Trudgeon reviewed the configuration of the outlots. Thc question of whether this is appropriate at this time is a decision for the Council. If this is done and the amendment does not happen there are a couple of options. One option is not to file the plat and the second option is to file the plat and have a revised legal description. This does not grant anyone any other rights, and the exposure for risk is low to none. Assistant Pttblic Works Director Olson advised the primary reason to bring this forward is for reference of the final plat document and the Master Development Agreement amendment language.
