r.. tit e Mr. Ryan Schroeder April 3. 1997 Page 4 The first condition of the Metropolitan Council's approval was that within nine months of January 12. 1995. Ramsey institute a system of post-installation inspection and maintenance of the city's on-site septic systems. In its letter of February 21. 1995. the city of Ramsey committed to take this action. Prior to any action being taken by the city to fulfill this condition the Metropolitan Council modified this requirement. The Metropolitan Council now merely requires compliance with state law with regard to on-site inspections. The .Metropolitan Council also required (i) that the city up-date its Tier II comprehensive sewer plan in compliance with the requirements of the former Metropolitan Waste Control Commission, (ii) that the city negotiate with the Metropolitan Council an acceptable housing agreement designed to implement the Council's life cycleand affordable housing goals. and (Hi) that the city work with Anoka County to make certain changes on its transportation plan. The city agreed to each of these conditions and pledged to comply with these conditions by way of its letter of February 21, 1995. The Metropolitan Council also conditioned its approval. on the city adopting an ordinance regulating the height of certain buildings in order to protect its air space. Along with its letter of February 21, 1995. Ramsey submitted a copy of an ordinance amending its zoning regulations to accomplish this goal. The ordinance became effective on February 10, 1995. According to Robert Davis, senior planner with the Metropolitan Council, the Council considers the city of Ramsey to have complied with all of its requirements regarding the 1995 comprehensive plan amendment. According to Mr. Davis, the Metropolitan Council considers the Ramsey comprehensive plan amendment to be in effect. ~yours, Ronald H. Batty RHB:lh cc: Mr. David Kennedy RHB119807 RA125-50
