Both of these data sets are referenced any time a new <br />development is proposed. These data sets help inform Ramsey if there are significant and/or high <br />value natural resources within a development site that may warrant greater protections. While <br />both provide valuable insight, Ramsey acknowledges that both require periodic updates to ensure <br />that the data is accurate and relevant. There has been no specific timeframe identified for updates <br />to either, but for this data to remain useful, they should be revisited no less than every ten (10) to <br />fifteen (15) years. <br />Existing Natural Resource Quality <br />Figure 29: Natural Resource Inventory <br /> <br />As part of the NRI, potential greenway corridors were identified. Thus, in addition to providing <br />insight to the potential presence of higher value natural areas, the NRI can also be utilized as a <br />reference and guide for critical corridor connections.
