ORDINANCE #13 -16 CITY OF RAMSEY ANOKA COUNTY STATE OF MINNESOTA AN AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 117 OF THE CITY CODE, WHICH CHAPTER IS KNOWN AS ZONING AND SUBDIVISIONS OF THE CITY CODE OF RAMSEY, MINNESOTA AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 117 -356 (COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OFF - STREET PARKING) OF THE RAMSEY CITY CODE. The City of Ramsey Ordains: SECTION 1 AUTHORITY This ordinance is adopted pursuant to and under the authority of the City Charter of the City of Ramsey. SECTION 2 AMENDMENTS Section 117 -356 is hereby amended as follows (additions indicated as underline, deletions indicated as st through): (d) Surfacing Requirements for Highway 10 interim areas. (1) Purpose. The City Council desires to acknowledge the impacts of Highway 10 improvements that will convert this corridor to a freeway status while still providing fair and equitable enforcement of City Code standards for those areas not impacted by future Highway 10 improvements. This conversion will eliminate private accesses, require the acquisition of private parcels, and will include the construction of grade- separated interchanges. With that in mind, this Section provides an exemption to surfacing standards as directed below to reduce the burden of costly improvements that will be eliminated in the near term. Consistent with guidance provided by Minnesota Statute Chapter 462, the City establishes a process for allowing alternative surfacing for parking, maneuvering, storage, and display areas through the issuance of an Interim Use Permit. The City finds that these alternative surfaces are currently acceptable, but will not be acceptable when Highway 10 is converted to freeway status. (2) Area defined. This Section shall apply to the following areas only (collectively the "Impact Area "): a. Property located within the Highway 10 Official Map Area (as on file with the Anoka County Recorder)/H -1 Highway 10 Business District
