Design Framework - The COR <br />Purpose <br />The primary purpose of Design Framework is to set basic parameters, describe preferences and illustrate <br />design intent. These framework standards serve as a framework within which creative design can and <br />should occur — there is no one solution, but many options that meet the basic requirements of this <br />document. <br />Application <br />The format and content of this framework are specifically tailored for use as a supplement to the Zoning <br />Ordinance. This document is organized into two sections. The first section outlines issues and <br />recommendations that apply to the entire COR. The second section highlights specific framework that <br />apply to each sub -district within The COR. The City of Ramsey has adopted Development Plan 5.03 as <br />the Master Plan for The COR. This master plan provides illustrative guidance for building locations and <br />orientation. Any changes to this approved master plan must be reviewed and approved by the City <br />Council as part of the development application. This Development Plan will be updated by the City as <br />changes are approved. <br />Implied Responsibility <br />All participants in the development of The COR recognize the local and regional impacts of this project <br />and the various systems that play an important role. Each parcel and each building must fit within the <br />context of the entire plan. Individual projects must complement, not compete with, adjacent <br />development in terms of public green space, walk and trail connections, stormwater management <br />solutions, street layout, parking strategies, land use mix and building design. <br />Design Framework — The COR Page 1 <br />February 28, 2012 <br />
