City of Ramsey to PSD, LLC. This alternative supports the terms and conditions of the MOU, MOA, and DA, and allows the City to recover $166,422.70 of funds expended with City Improvement Project #12-22. Acting Mayor Riley asked if this needed to occur in this order as the City has built a street and stormwater ponding on land that the City does not own. City Engineer Westby stated that the City does own the land through the agreements. He noted that because there were a lot of different pieces of the project with different property owners, an MOU was used to spell out the terms of the agreement. He stated that there are cleaner ways to work out the details, but it would be dependent upon the amount of time the City has to work on those agreements. Councilmember Musgrove referenced the fill of the original pond, where the road was constructed, and asked who would be responsible for that. City Engineer Westby replied that the pond needed to be filled to construct the roadway, which was a City expense and has already occurred. Motion by Councilmember Kuzma, seconded by Councilmember Shryock, to Adopt Resolution #19-063 Approving Quit Claim Deed Conveying Tract B, Registered Land Survey No. 266. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Acting Mayor Riley, Councilmembers Kuzma, Shryock, Heinrich, and Musgrove. Voting No: None. Absent: Mayor LeTourneau. 7.02: Consider Multiple Actions Related to a Proposed Commercial Horse Farm at 17902 Saint Francis Boulevard NW (Project No. 19-101); Case of Dale and Tammy Wills 1. Request for a Home Occupation Permit to Operate a Commercial Horse Farm 2. Request for a Conditional Use Permit to Exceed Square Footage for Detached Accessory Buildings City Planner Anderson reviewed the staff report and recommendation from the Planning Commission to approve both the Home Occupation Permit and the Conditional Use Permit. Councilmember Shryock stated that this is a great idea. She stated that with the anticipated usage on the property, she would not anticipate higher levels of traffic than if this were developed as a neighborhood subdivision. She asked if there have been any discussions with the County on a possible access from Highway 47, should the property become more active, rather than channeling traffic through the neighborhood. City Planner Anderson replied that City staff has sent the information to MnDOT because Highway 47 is a State highway and there has not been any feedback received. He stated that perhaps MnDOT will provide comments in the future. City Council / February 26, 2019 Page 4 of 11
