Development of Refined Plans #6a, 6b and 6c Following deliberation by the Arden Hills TCAAP Task Force and presentation to Congressman Vento's TCAAP Reutilization Committee, the planning team prepared a series of rermed plans that were labeled 6a, 6b and 6c. The plans were prepared in succession, with #6a being the one most closely resembling Concept Plan #4, the "residential" concept plan. Major differences between #6a and #4 include: . #6a used the rermed open-space framework, which included more land to protect critical habitat. ~ The "village center" was relocated to the southeastern portion of the site, at the northwest comer of CTH 96 and Hamline A venue. A school site and civic campus were planned for a site directly across the street. . The golf course that appeared in earlier plans was relocated in such a way that it was surrounded by single- family residential development, farther to the west than it had originally been placed. . The joint ballfields and joint city/county/National Guard maintenance facility were located in the northwestern portion of the site, along County 1. . CTH 96 was treated as a landscaped parkway edged with open space_ Only residential and institutional uses, plus the master-planned village center, would be allowed to front on 96. (Figure 20) Task Force discussions led to preparation of Rermed Plan #6b (Figure 21). 6b cut off the small "rmger" of single- family housing that pushed northeastward into the Marsden Lake area. The plan also relocated the MnDOT maintenance facility off-site and expanded the size of the joint maintenance facility based on input from Ramsey County Public Works regarding the . This plan showed some additional commercial/office/industrial space, but also omitted the joint ballfields. It did, however, introduce the notion of setting aside about 30 acres for a city park. It also moved uses around so that the entire CTH 96 frontage would consist of public uses or green space. Camiros, Ltd.lSEH. Inc.lLHDL. Ltd. TCMP Framework Plan Pagel Chapter V
