III. IMPLEMENTATION <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />ADMINISTRATIVE <br />PROCEDURES <br /> <br />The Comprehensive Plan is a compilation of goals, policies, <br />standards, and maps, designed to provide direction for solving <br />problems and dealing with change. The plan deals with guiding <br />physical, social, and economi~ development within the commun- <br />ity. Plan implementation involves ~he conversion of these <br />plan elements into measures of action. Implementation also <br />means using the plan for future decisions and adjusting it as <br />it becomes necessary. <br /> <br />The plan implementation should describe how the plan will be <br />accomplished. In Ramsey, plan implementation will include: <br />improved administrative review procedures, official controls <br />(ordinances), City Council resolutions or directives, a <br />housing program, and a capital improvements program. <br /> <br />A. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES <br /> <br />· The City's role in the development of land is one of its most <br /> important functions because of the long lasting effect it has on <br /> appearance and the environment. Once a structure has been <br /> constructed or the earth altered, it becomes very difficult to <br /> modify the situation without substantial expense. Plans and <br /> ordinances should be updated and adopted to protect public <br /> interests. In order to make the development process and appli- <br />-cation procedures more understandable to the public, current <br /> procedures will be reviewed and revised where appropriate. <br /> <br />89 <br /> <br /> <br />
