<br /> <br />Mr. Brown explained that the villa layout has not moved from the beginning, noting that a villa <br />has not been gained in the change of layouts. He explained why the proposed stormwater <br />management was chosen. He stated that this plan attempts to place the least amount of density <br />adjacent to Northfork, as desired by those residents. He stated that the only change to the plan was <br />that some lots overall were lost but noted that the number of villas has not increased. <br /> <br />Councilmember Kuzma stated that in his opinion it would look odd to place an 80-foot lot in the <br />area where the villas appear to bleed over the line and supports the proposed configuration. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Kuzma, seconded by Councilmember Heinrich, to waive the City <br />Charter requirement to read the Ordinance aloud and Adopt Ordinance #20-02 Amending Section <br />117-90 “MAP” of Chapter 117 of the City Code of Ramsey Minnesota. <br /> <br />A roll call vote was performed by the City Administrator: <br /> <br />Councilmember Heinrich aye <br />Councilmember Kuzma aye <br />Councilmember Specht aye <br />Councilmember Musgrove aye <br />Councilmember Riley nay <br />Councilmember Riley aye <br />Mayor LeTourneau aye <br /> <br />Motion carried. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Kuzma, seconded by Councilmember Menth, to Adopt Resolution <br />#20-055 Approving Preliminary Plat for The Preserve at Northfork, contingent upon formal <br />adoption of the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan and compliance with Staff Review and approval <br />of plans by the City Engineer. <br /> <br />Further discussion: Councilmember Musgrove commented that she agrees with the plan which has <br />been before the Council several times and the developer has made adjustments throughout the <br />process. Councilmember Menth stated that everything he asked for was gained: the trail <br />connecting the neighborhood, the pond along Alpine which buffers the neighborhood to the north, <br />and the road was increased from 29 to 30 feet. <br /> <br />A roll call vote was performed by the City Administrator: <br /> <br />Councilmember Heinrich aye <br />Councilmember Kuzma aye <br />Councilmember Specht aye <br />Councilmember Musgrove aye <br />Councilmember Menth aye <br />Councilmember Riley nay <br />Mayor LeTourneau aye <br />City Council / May 12, 2020 <br />Page 11 of 14 <br /> <br />
