CITY COUNCIL CITY OF RAMSEY ANOKA COUNTY STATE OF MINNESOTA The Ramsey City Council conducted a regular meeting on Tuesday, April 10, 2001, at the Ramsey Municipal Center, 15153 Nowthen Boulevard NW, Ramsey, Minnesota. Members Present: Mayor Thomas Gamec Councilmember Susan E. Anderson Councilmember Terry Hendriksen Councilmember Patti Kurak Councilmember Gerald Zimmerman Also Present: City Administrator James Norman Community Development Director Sylvia Frolik Director of Public Works/Fire Chief Dean Kapler City Engineer Brian Olson City Attorney William Goodrich Police Chief David Gustafson CALL TO ORDER Mayor Gamec called the regular meeting of the City Council to order at 7:10 p.m. and called upon Councilmember Zimmerman to lead in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. CITIZEN INPUT Kerry Manuel, 15668 Juniper Ridge Drive NW, Ramsey, inquired as to what was happening with the Density Transition ordinance. He also stated that the Comprehensive Plan that was approved by the Met Council is going to require a large part of Ramsey to be rezoned and inquired if residents would be notified of the higher density changes prior to the public hearing. Mayor Gamec replied that that Planning Commission will be holding a public hearing on the Comprehensive Plan and the City will follow the proper procedures for notification of the hearing. The density transition ordinance is on the agenda for tonight, but will probably be forwarded to a work session. Councilmember Hendriksen stated that he had requested that the Assistant City Administrator place the issue of the Density Transition ordinance on the agenda as a case, but that did not happen; it was placed under Mayor and Council Input which he did not think was appropriate.
