Community Development Director <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Gene S h. e llerud of GM Land Company has submitted an application for a subdivision of property <br />located in the southeast quadrant of C.S.A.H. #5 and Alpine Drive. The property being platted is <br />c~trrcntly owned by the Developer, City of Ramsey, Dr. Tom Anderson (R. amsey Dental), and 3 <br />residents. The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map and the official City Zoning Map identify <br />these properties as Places to Shop (B-1 Business), Public/Quasi- Public, and Low Density <br />Residential (R-1 Residential). The development proposal consists of platting single family lots <br />along the north and east boundary of the plat and reconfiguring 3 existing residential lots in the <br />southwest comer of the plat. The proposal also preserves two sites for future Public/Quasi,Public <br />u:;e: (l) a fire station in the northeast comer of the plat to replace the existing fire station'in the <br />City }Iall building that will eventually be vacated; and (2) a future potential school site. <br /> <br />The t;ol lowing items are enclosed for your information: <br /> <br />a) Site Location Map <br />b) Preliminary Site Plan for the subject property <br />c) City Council Work Session minutes dated July 19, 2005 <br />d) City Council Work Session minutes dated September 20, 2005 <br />e) Proposed Resolution authorizing submittal to Metropolitan Council <br /> <br />Notification: <br /> <br />State law requires that the City notify property owners within 350 feet.

As part of the <br />bnd swap, GM would also reserve a lot in the northeast comer of the plat for a future fire station. <br /> <br />The l{aln, scy Dental Clinic will remain at the current location, but will sell part of their site to <br />(~; M [,and Development fbr incorporation into the development project. <br /> <br />93 <br /> <br /> <br />
