To help facilitate this review process, the noteworthy changes made to the plan since July 14 are outlined by chapter in this memo and have been black-lined in the draft document. In the draft document, there is a vertical black line in the left margin wherever a change has been made. Except for the minor corrections and the changes described below, there are no other changes to the document. Chapter 4: Active Living o Page 4-2: Per a suggestion from the Roseville School District, a policy regarding cooperating with adjacent communities, school districts, employers, and institutions on active living principles was added. Chapter 6: Land Use . o Page 6-6,7: Updated the future land use chart and map to include a new category called "Community Mixed Use," which is based on the Guiding Plan for the B2 District. This new category reflects the potential office, retail, service, and medium/high density uses in this district. Since housing is included as a potential use, it is required to have a density, which is listed at three to 20 units per acre. o Page 6-8: Updated the section that references the recently adopted Guiding Plan for the B2 District and provides a brief description of the Guiding Plan. The full Guiding Plan is not adopted directly into the Comprehensive Plan in order to provide more flexibility and discretion for the City. o Page 6-9: Updated this section to state that a Guiding Plan is needed for the Grey Fox/Red Fox and for the Lexington Avenue corridor. This previous text implied the Lexington Avenue area was included in the study area, but the revised text is more specific. This area is intended to have a planning process similar to the Guiding Plan for the B2 District. Chapter 8: Economic Development and Redevelopment o Page 8-2: Updated the section regarding the Guiding Plan for the B2 District. Included a section identifying the other areas in need of a guiding plan, which are also referenced in Chapter 6. Chapter 9: Parks and Recreation o Pages 9-1, 3, 6, 9, 11, 12-14: Made updates related to path names, the wildlife corridors, and county facilities referenced in the comments from Ramsey County Parks and Recreation. The County recommended replacing "path" with "trail" in many locations, but the City has opted to use the word "path." o Page 9-9: Updated the proposed pathway list and map to better reflect the Guiding Plan for the B2 District. Chapter 10: Protected Resources o Page 10-1: Included a reference in the policies about the need for protecting ground water quality, which is linked to surface water quality.
