MEMO TO: Ramsey City Council March 9, 1977 -2- (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) Amend the Plan and the Proposed Ordinance to be consistent with minimum lot size decisions of the City Council, adopted December 13, 1976 (Resolution No. 29). Consider adoption of additional lot size restrictions on the basis of soil types, to be effective in all three areas, until central sewer is available. Consider adoption of strict on-site septic system construction standards and possible fee system'to pay for on-going City inspection program designed to ensure pollution-free~ non-failure of systems for at least twenty Years in the transition and rural areas. Request Metropolitan Council and Waste Control Commission grant assistance to cover part of the cost of development and implementation of an on-site septic system inspection program. Develop standards and ordinance provisions which will allow urban density development to occur in the urban zone prior to availability of central sewer, only.if the developer agrees: a) To construct and maintain a pollution-free and failure-free on-site sewer system with suitable guarantees (performance bond, escrow, etc.) to the City which will ensure that the system will be maintained until the.central system is available. b) To pay the cost of any road improvements necessary to provide capacity for traffic generated by the facility on major arteries (trunk highway 47 - CSAH 5 and 57) until completion of the proposed Rum River bridge crossing; thereafter, costs to developer for traffic syste~sshall apply only to internal circulation systems and upgrading of adjacent thoroughfares required specifically to accommodate traffic generated by the specific development (traffic signals, turn lanes, etc.). The requirements set out in a) and b), above, can both be temporary, pending completion of construction schedules for the CAB Interceptor and a certain date for construction of the Rum River crossing. Thereafter, temporary systems would be related to the internal sewer system planning of the City and the actual availability of the Rum River crossing.
