- 18- Maintenance and inspection of existing systems throughout the entire City should be required and enforced. After Ramsey has taken these steps, the Metropolitan Council and MWCC can evaluate whether an extension of the Anoka interceptor to Ramsey at TH 47 is needed, and if so, when it should be constructed. Appropriate action can be taken through the Waste Management Policy Plan,. Development Program, and Capital - ,..,., Budgets. III. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS Ramsey'J proposed plan amendment consists of an "Urban Planning · District Report." The amendment is not a complete comprehensive plan but does establish very basic development policies for the City which have been reviewed only for adequacy.and consistency with:the Metro-'"'~'-"~;. poli. tan Development Framework policies and Metropolitan System Plans. Metropolitan Council review of this proposed amendment will not exempt the City of Ramsey from responsibilities ~stablished by the Metropolitan Land Planning Act. . . ...~:, ... ',': ~:,. Ramsey's plan concept, of delineating,an Urban Service Area, Transition Area, and Rural Area Within the City is generally consistent with the Development Framework, but/.he specific application of this concept, as proposed, is inadequate and not altogether consistent with the Development Framework. be Ramsey has not evaluated the service needs of current residents, most of whom reside outside the proposed . Urban Service Area. The City should consider whether the future Urban Service Area should be defined as the center of. the 'City where much. of the present development exists rather than in the southern, more undeveloped part of the City. The City's Urban Service Area is proposed in the pIan to be open to urban development immediate.ly. This would be premature because it is prior to the planned expansion of the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (1981-90) and the planned availability of metropolitan sewer service (1981 at the earliest). The City's proposed Urban Service Area would incorporate more than twice as much developable land area as is planned in the Development Framework.
