Mitigation element. Assuring the compatibility of development within Ramsey as growth <br />occurs is the primary goal of the comprehensive planning process. Item 27 contains <br />discussion of plan compatibility for a number of other planning documents that cover <br />land in and adjacent to the RTC site. Continued planning efforts will assure that non - <br />compatible uses do not occur as the RTC site develops. <br />As stated above, BNSF is currently working to address a contamination problem in the <br />southeast corner of the site. Prior to any earth -moving activity in this area, the developer <br />must notify BNSF, MPCA and the City to make sure that clean-up has progressed such <br />that additional problems will not be caused. <br />Many of the nearby environmental resources shown in Figure 9.2 can actually be <br />enhanced by the development of the RTC site. There is an intent to link regional, County <br />and City trails through the site, as well as establishing a drainage corridor that could <br />potentially increase habitat and allow movement of wildlife between Lake Itasca and the <br />Mississippi River. Every attempt will be made to incorporate habitat suitable for this to <br />occur. <br />9-3 <br />
