Case #5: Request for Final Plat Approval of Sunfish Lake Business Park 3rd Addition; Case of City of Ramsey Assistant Community Development Director/Executive HRA Director Frolik explained the City of Ramsey is in the process of re-platting Lot 1, Block 2, Sunfish Lake Business Park into three lots and an outlot. The property is located south of Sunwood Drive N.W., west of Sunfish Lake Boulevard, and east of Azurite Street N.W. The purpose of the replat is to create additional 2 to 4 acre lots in the City of Ramsey to meet development requests and demand. She explained the minor plat is creating two additional buildable lots. The plat design is such that all three lots meet thc minimum 1 acre lot size and minimum 200 foot lot width in the E-1 Employment District. Lots 1 and 2 will receive access from Azurite Street. Lot 3 is adjacent to Sunfish Lake Boulevard and all right-of-access will appropriately be dedicated to the County. This will leave Lot 3 with no current public access. However, Outlot A, in combination with an easement the City previously received from Waltek to the south, will provide for the future extension of 144th Avenue N.W., west of Sunfish Lake Boulevard Development of Lot 3 cannot happen without thc extension and construction of 144th Avenue N.W.
