SECTION 4. LAND USE AND PLANNING DISTRICTS. To provide a closer look at neighborhood and small area planning, Section 4, the Land Use Section of the Roseville Comprehensive Plan, includes an evaluation of each of the City's 15 planning districts, as well as information on existing land use and future land use designations for the entire community. In this section the Planning Districts coincide with the Census tracts. The City has used these Planning Districts as part of the updates to the Plan in 1959, 1969, 1978 and then annually since 1994, primarily for ease of statistical comparison. These long-used districts are not specific neighborhoods, but do describe the demography, and land use and property value in each district. Approximately 38% of Roseville land is used for residential purposes. This equals 61 % of the total property value and generates 40% of the communities total property taxes. In Minnesota, commercial and industrial (CIl) properties are taxed at a higher rate than residential properties. Therefore, by comparison the CIl properties include only slightly more than 17% of the land area and contribute 31 % of the total property value and 58% of the total property tax. Community-wide, The total market value of the City of Roseville in 2001 was $2.68 billion. The Roseville Comprehensive Plan Land Use designations are defined in Section 4. The definitions help to describe each land use category and what relationship these uses have to the zoning for housing and intensity of use. The residential designations include: LR Low Density Residential (34.5% of the land area) involves housing units with a density of no more than 4 units per acre. MR Medium Density Residential (2.04% of the land area) involves housing units from 4 to 10 units per acre. HR High Density Residential (4.00% of the land area) involves housing units from 10 to 36 units per acre. SECTION 5. TRANSPORTATION. The transportation section of the Roseville Comprehensive Plan contains average daily trips, the ability of the road to handle those trips, and the time lines and schematic plans for short-term and long-range construction or reconstruction of roads within the community. In addition, this section outlines the transit plans from the Metropolitan Council and how they will be integrated into the Roseville land uses, especially the commercial and industrial areas, and the multi-family housing and senior housing areas.
