II~PLEI~NTATION <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />The Comprehensive Plan is a compilation of goals, policies, <br />standards, and maps, d~signed to provide direction for solving <br />problems and dealing with change. The plan deals with guiding <br />physical, social, and economic development within the community. <br />Plan implementation involves the conversion of theSe plan ele- <br />ments into measures of action. Implementation also means using <br />the plan for future decisions and adjusting it as it becomes <br />necessary. <br /> <br />The plan implementation should describe how the plan will be <br />accontolished. In Ramsey, plan implementation will include: <br />improved administrative review procedures, official controls <br />(ordinances), City Council resolutions or directives, a housing <br />program, and a capital improvements program. <br /> <br />A. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES <br /> <br />ADMINISTRATIVE <br />PROCEDURES <br /> <br />The City's role in the development of land is one of its most <br />important functions because of the long lasting effect it has <br />on appearance and the environment. Once a structure has been <br />constructed or the earth altered, it becomes very difficult to <br />modify the situation without substantial expense. Plans and <br />ordinances should be updated and adopted to protect public in- <br />terests. In order to m~ke the development process and appli- <br />cation procedures more understandable to the public, current <br />procedures will be reviewed and revised where appropriate. <br /> <br />89 <br /> <br /> <br />
