Jon Packer provided clarity on the two PIDs that are now shown in the rezoning that occurred in <br />2011. He noted that in 2012 there was a lot split completed, dividing one lot into two parcels. It <br />was noted that the land remained within the family. <br /> <br />Senior Planner McGuire Brigl commented that the new lots would retain the same zoning as the <br />original lot. <br /> <br />Chairperson Bauer asked if Commissioner Walker also compared lot sales under one acre during <br />that same three-year period. <br /> <br />Commissioner Walker commented that he did not. <br /> <br />Mr. Packer replied that he did that research and noted that in just 2020, 498 single family homes <br />were sold in Ramsey on lots under one acre in size which is significantly more in that one year <br />than the sales of three years that Commission Walker provided. <br /> <br />Chairperson Bauer commented that based on the comments of County Commissioner Look, this <br />preliminary plat shows direct access onto Nowthen Boulevard and asked if the developer has been <br />th <br />requested to provide access onto 175. He noted that would provide the option to review traffic <br />control for that intersection. He recognized that would change the layout of the development. <br />Senior Planner McGuire Brigl commented that the City has been actively working with Anoka <br />County throughout this process. She noted that an additional condition could be added to review <br />options for traffic control. She noted that the County has stated that a traffic light would not be <br />appropriate, but staff could discuss whether a roundabout would be an option. She stated that the <br />traffic count numbers from the traffic study showed the peak times. She noted that the full report <br />showed the full two-hourperiods during which the consultant observed but the second hour was <br />not considered a peak hour and therefore was not marked as such in the report. <br /> <br />Chairperson Bauer suggest that the Commission first consider the rezoning request. <br />Commissioner VanScoy referenced the comment made related to the spring delineation and asked <br />staff for input. <br />Senior Planner McGuire Brigl commented that typically when a fall delineation is completed, a <br />spring delineation is also completed to verify that information. She noted that would be handled <br />by the LRRWMO in its review and permitting. <br />Mr. Schmidt commented that the delineation was completed this summer and believes that is has <br />been accepted by the LRRWMO this week. <br />Ms. Musgrove stated that the wetland delineation was approved conditionally with the clause that <br />a spring delineation is completed. She noted that was her concern, as the lots could be impacted <br />if there are changes that result from the spring delineation. <br />Planning Commission/ October 28, 2021 <br />Page 9 of 23 <br /> <br />
