ORDINANCE #01-10 <br /> <br />CITY OF RAMSEY <br />ANOKA COUNTY <br />STATE OF MINNESOTA <br /> <br />AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTION 4.10 OF THE CITY CODE WHICH <br />ORDINANCE IS INTENDED TO MANAGE AND ADMINISTER THE USE OF THE <br />PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST, AND TO PROVIDE FOR THE <br />ISSUANCE AND REGULATION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY PERMITS. <br /> <br />The City of Ramsey Ordains: <br /> <br />SECTION 1. AMENDMENT <br /> <br />Section 4.10 of the City Code (hereafter "this Code") is hereby repealed in its entirety, and is <br />replaced by the following new Section 4.10, to read as follows: <br /> <br />4.10 <br /> <br />Right-of-way Management <br /> <br />4.10.01 <br /> <br />Findings and Purpose <br /> <br /> Subdivision 1. General. In order to provide for the health, safety and well being <br />of its citizens, as well as to insure the structural integrity of its streets and the use of the fight-of- <br />ways, the City strives to keep its right-of-ways in a state of good repair and free from <br />unnecessary encumbrances. Although the general population bears the financial burden for the <br />upkeep of the right-of-ways, a primary cause for the early and excessive deterioration of its right- <br />of-ways is their frequent excavation by persons whose equipment is located therein. <br /> <br />Right-of-way obstruction is a source of frustration for merchants, business owners and the <br />general population which must avoid these obstructions or change travel or shopping plans <br />because of them and has detrimental effect on commerce. Persons whose equipment is located <br />within the right-of-way are the primary cause of these frequent obstructions. <br /> <br />The City holds the right-of-ways within its geographical boundaries as an asset in trust for its <br />citizens. The City and other public entities have invested millions of dollars in public funds to <br />build and maintain the right-of-way. The City recognizes that some persons, by placing their <br />equipment in the right-of-way and charging the citizens of the City for goods and services <br />delivered thereby, are using this public property for private gain and profit. <br /> <br />The Minnesota Legislature has recognized that it is in the public's interest that the use and <br />regulation of right-of-ways be carried on in a fair, efficient, competitively neutral, and <br />substantially uniform manner, while recognizing such regulation must reflect distinct <br />engineering, construction, operation, maintenance, and public and worker safety requirements <br /> <br /> <br />
