March 3, 1981 Park. Board Minutes Page 2 <br />V. New. Business • <br />A. Comprehensive Plan Consistency Review (Wallburn Industrial Par)C) <br />Joan Archer, City Planner, was present to review the Comprehensive <br />Plan Consistency of .the proposal. <br />Schmidt added that the Council felt that this is crucial to-.the <br />Long Lake Park development. There is not alot that can be done <br />at this time but the Council wants to know the Park Board concerns- <br />and sensitivities regarding Long Lake Park. <br /> <br />":The area being discussed is now zoned a sensitive industrial district. <br />The proposed revised zoning code includes the regulations for the <br />sensitive industrial district. The district restricts outside <br />storage, traffic, etc. The reason for this special process is be- <br />cause we have no such district now. <br />Grimshaw asked what will be necessary if the road would be extended <br />at a later date for access to the park. <br />Archer felt it would be a good idea to know this right now - at <br />least consider an easement. <br />Schmidt said that if the City develops it as a City park, it is <br />possible` the property could be developed as a PUD and they would <br />be responsible for the road. <br />Van Hatten said he was unsure whether he wants an industrial road <br />as an entrance to the park, unless there was a second road. <br />Gunderman stated we may not have a choice if Ramsey County doesn't <br />provide with access. <br />Van Hatten said that even if Ramsey County doesn't provide access, <br />.wouldn't we want a second road. <br />Anderson said it may be the only way into the park. This way is <br />better than no way. <br />Archer commented that there are restrictions on front yards, they <br />have to be landscaped, etc. <br />Gunderman asked each member to comment. <br />Carlson said it looks like an alternative if nothing else. It is <br />some kind of road even if we have to go through an industrial area. <br />Dahl feels it is valuable in terms of access. It is most crucial <br />that we are able to keep on top of it. <br />Grimshaw agreed with Dahl that it is important to keep informed. <br />Felt the road was not the best for access but at least we would <br />have one. <br />
