The Council previously introduced the Ordinance at its meeting on June 9, <br /> 2020. <br /> Councilmember Heinrich asked for clarification on the feedback from the Council to the developer <br /> at the last meeting and what has evolved. <br /> Deputy City Administrator Gladhill stated that the area to the east was a primary focus with a <br /> desire for 80-foot lots and a 30-foot landscaped buffer. He noted that the Council also desired to <br /> require 80 foot lots on the south side, which is the direction that staff followed. <br /> Mayor LeTourneau stated that originally there was concern from the residents to the east and the <br /> bulk of the work that was done was to find a solution involving transitioning buffering that will <br /> allow for the existing residents to be pleased with the planning effort. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Heinrich, seconded by Councilmember Riley, to waive the City <br /> Charter requirement to read the Ordinance aloud and adopt Ordinance #20-06 Amending Section <br /> 117-90 "Map" of Chapter 117 of the City Code of Ramsey, Minnesota. <br /> A roll call vote was performed: <br /> City Council/June 23,2020 <br /> Page 9 of 21 <br />
