Specifically, the request is to consider <br />extending the submittal deadline from December 1998 to , 1999. The attached Resolution and application <br />"Request for Extension of Planning Period," must be approved by the City Council in order for the Metropolitan Council to <br />formally consider the extension request. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br />The City of Ramsey has been working in earnest on the Comprehensive Plan update since September 1997, To date, a series <br />of public input/information meetings have taken place including a Public Information Meeting; Vision Session; Concept <br />Review Session and special interest meetings. The Comprehensive Plan is in draft form and is available for review and <br />comment by the public. A public hearing is scheduled for the December 1 Planning Commission Meeting where public input <br />will be heard. The Planning Commission may act on the plan at that meeting or defer the decision to a future meeting. If the <br />decision is deferred, the City Council will not act on the plan until after the holiday season. <br /> <br />The extension is being requested to allow appropriate time for public review and comment and to ensure public meetings do <br />not conflict with the holiday season. <br />
