City Administrator Fritsinger indicated Ramsey County Parks has not indicated an interest in acquiring this property. City Admini!<trator Fritsinger indicated the Comprehensive Plan does not have to be amended for the Ogren PUD Proposal to proceed. Councilmember Malone indicated the Metropolitan Council is looking to require review and updating of the Comprehensive Plan. He indicated a broader view of the Comprehensive Plan should be taken and all necessary changes should be made at the same time. Mayor Probst concurred with Councilmember Malone, as many as possible areas need to be identified. City Attorney Filla noted a super majority is required to pass this amendment, and since two members have already voiced their opinion, the item would not move forward. MOTION: Hicks moved and Keirn seconded a motion to table Planning Case #95-12, Comprehensive Plan Amendment for further review of problem areas. Mayor Probst noted a Public Hearing is still under way. Councilmember Hicks withdrew his motion. Mayor Probst opened the floor to those who wish to speak in favor of the amendment Ms. Jeanne Wini~ki of 4471 Old Hwy 10, indicated support to clarify the contradictions in maps. She noted the map originally was designed to show what currently existed Property designated as open space was in reality undeveloped land. She indicated it would be less confusing if perhaps two maps were drawn, one to designate current use and one to designate potential use. Mr. Jim Hanton of 3945 Rolling Hills Road, encouraged the Council to table this item until the whole community can be reviewed. Mr. Hanton indicated concern that the Zoning Ordinance was driving the Comprehensive Plan instead of the Comprehensive Plan driving the Zoning Ordinance. Ms. Angela Hames of 1839 Venus Avenue, indicated Ramsey County has by letter stated intentions, if the land becomes available to accept it as part of their open space. She would provide Council with a copy of that letter in the near future. Mr. Mark Chapin of 3947 Rolling Hills Road, indicated concern that all open spaces are zoned R-l Single Family Residential.
