Autikka, P.E. March 12, 1986 Mr. Kenneth Peterson, Chairman Ramsey Planning and Zoning Commission City of Ramsey 15153 Nowthen Boulevard N.W. Ramsey, MN 55303 Re: River's Bend Plaza Planned Unit Development Dear Mr. Peterson: We have reviewed the River's Bend Plaza preliminary P.U.D. plan in conjunction with City Code Chapter 170.014G and offer the following comments: 1. The proposed plan consists of approximately six acres located in urban business district of the City. 2. The proposed plan shows three buildings with a total area of 56,600 square feet. A written statement explaining the use of the buildings was not provided. Chapter 170.014G of the City Code requires that a written statement be submitted which would explain the general character of the development, the ultimate ownership and maintenance of all parts of the development. 3. In review of the preliminary development plan requirements of the City Code, we found the proposed plan lacked the following items: a. The proposed uses of the land to be developed. b. No common open space was shown. This requirement may be waived provided no residential uses are proposed. c. The use and height of the buildings was not stated. d. Sanitary sewer service and water service are available along the east side of the site. However, no plans for storm water runoff were provided. e. The proposed plan did not provide a schedule for the intended final approval of the total development. 4. In review of parking, the plan provides for 240 spaces and future expansion area for parking. If the proposed buildings are developed totally as business or retail shopping, the number of required parking spaces based on the city Code is 283. civil _ municipal _ planning _ soils _ 1Ilnd surveying _ landscape architecture 3
