Ramsey, MN 55303 RE: Ramsey Comprehensive Plan Amendment MUSA Expansion Metropolitan Council District 9 Metropolitan Council Referral File No. 13834-7 Dear Mr. Gromberg: I have reviewed your letter of June 22, 1994, directed to Robert Davis of the office of local assistance staff. The letter did not arrive until Monday June 27, 1994. Your letter implies that the review period is underway on the Ramsey MUSA expansion request. This is not the case. Please refer to the last paragraph of Metropolitan Council Chair Dottie Rietow's letter of November 3, 1993, which states; "The Council cannot act on the proposed amendment until it receives the needed transportation and wastewater information and the review period for the amendment will not begin until the information has been supplied." As you have indicated in your letter, Carl Ohm of the Council's transportation management technical services unit staff expects, during the next week or so, to complete review of the draft transportation information and, if necessary, meet with BRW, Inc., consultants to Anoka County, on updating the County Transportation Plan. When there is consultant and staff agreement that the draft plan addresses the regional, county and Ramsey transportation issues to be resolved, the plan will go to Anoka County for county action. Once it is approved by the county, the Council can accept the plan as an offici&l transportation pl~"'!~i~g docum~nt for Anoka Count-i. Until Carl Ohm agrees that the Anoka County data and information needed for transportation review is adequate, the Council review will not commence. As of this date, Mr. Ohm has not agreed that the needed transportation information is adequate. This is a major plan amendment involving over 400 acres of MUSA land change. As soon as the information needed for review is complete, my staff will send you a letter officially commencing the 9O-day review. Council staff does agree that everything else does now appear to be in order. We will attempt to expedite the review.
