The current 2000 MUSA was expanded <br />by 33 usable acres, yielding a total of 1318 developable acres. The expansion provided a slight <br />increase in residential area and commercial area. The developable industrial area remains the <br />same as in the current 2000 MUSA. These figures may be somewhat misleading as the City has <br />received additional phases of subdivisions which include all of the undeveloped residential <br />property in the proposed MUSA expansion. <br /> <br />TABLE 3 <br />SUMMARY OF MUSA CHANGE, CURRENT TO PROPOSED <br /> <br /> 2000 MUSA Proposed 2000 M USA Change <br /> Undeveloped Acres Undeveloped Acres <br />I Commercial 180 197 1 7 <br />Industrial 215 215 0 <br />Residential 99 115 1 6 <br />Total 494 527 33 <br /> <br />II. URBAN DEVELOPMENT <br /> <br />Population/Households and Employment <br /> <br />The 1989 Comprehensive Plan Amendment submitted population, employment and household <br />information which exceeded MC's estimates and forecasts. Based on Me staff review, the MDIF <br />forecasts for each of these factors were revised to more accurately reflect the current situation. <br /> <br />The following table outlines MDIF and revised City-wide population, household and employment <br />forecasts for the City of Ramsey as indicated in MC's June 30, 1989 review: <br /> <br />TABLE 4 <br />MDIF AND REVISED FORECASTS 1990-2010 <br />POPULATION, HOUSEHOLDS, AND EMPLOYMENT <br /> <br /> 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 <br /> MDIF (revised) (revised) <br />Population 2,360 10,093 12,408 12,600 17,000 21,800 <br />Households 647 2,660 3,641 3,500 5,000 6,341 <br />Employment 102 310 875 600 1,200 2,000 <br /> <br />As indicated, the number of households are expected to increase at approximately 135 per year <br />through the next decade. This would correspond to a population increase to approximately <br />17,000 residents by the year 2000. <br /> <br />\, <br /> <br />The 2010 forecasts are for sizing regional facilities such as sewers and highways. The revised <br />forecasts have been evaluated using the 1990 census data. <br /> <br />4 <br />
