These <br />areas will average three (3) units per acre and contain single family, detached dwellings. <br />Where Low Density Residential is directly adjacent to areas guided Rural Developing that contain 2.5 acre <br />lots, strategies for density transitioning will be employed. This means that while an area of Low Density <br />Residential may average three (3) units per acre, those lots directly adjacent to 2.5 acre lots will be closer in <br />size to 2.5 acres in order to provide an effective transition that maintains the existing character of the <br />neighborhood. Screening methods, such as landscaping must also be employed to transition between very <br />low density areas and urban lots. <br />Medium Density Residential <br />These areas are within the MUSA and intended to receive medium density housing including lower density <br />multi -family housing and higher density single-family housing. Average density will be six (6) units per acre. <br />Medium density detached single-family is becoming an increasingly popular development pattern for Ramsey. <br />High Density Residential <br />These areas are within MUSA and intended to accommodate multi -family housing such as townhomes and <br />apartment buildings. Average density will be ten (10) units per acre. <br />Business Park <br />Areas guided Business Park are reserved for office and industrial development. <br />City of Ramsey 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update <br />Land Use Plan <br />Page 19 of 31 <br />
