Title:
Adopt Ordinance #26-08 Amending a Street Name in the Plats of "Affinity at the COR" and "Ramsey Town Center Addition."
Purpose/Background:
The City Council introduced this ordinance on April 28, 2026.
The Anoka County Surveyor noted that one roadway in the COR has segments with three names (moving from east to west): East Ramsey Parkway NW, West Ramsey Parkway NW, and Ramsey Parkway NW.
The Anoka County Surveyor noted that one roadway in the COR has segments with three names (moving from east to west): East Ramsey Parkway NW, West Ramsey Parkway NW, and Ramsey Parkway NW.
Initially, the plat of "Ramsey Town Center Addition" had an "East" and a "West" Ramsey Parkway split by the two legs of Town Center Drive (also an East and a West). Many years ago, the two-leg concept of Town Center Drive was abandoned. Only the "East" leg was constructed and was renamed Center Street. The plat of "Affinity at the COR" included some of the land that was intended for the space in the center of the two legs of Town Center Drive and platted it as West Ramsey Parkway to match that in "Ramsey Town Center Addition." There was a segment of roadway constructed with the Affinity at the COR senior apartments in 2018 due north of the building. This segment is officially still West Ramsey Parkway, though nothing is addressed off of it.
More recently, the plat of "COR Five" included vacating the unconstructed West Ramsey Parkway right-of-way west of Willemite Street and rededicated it more simply as "Ramsey Parkway" (it was subsequently constructed). This matches what was dedicated with the plat of "Waterfront Village" between the roundabout and Zeolite Street.
The proposed ordinance would drop the "West" from the street name between Center Street and Willemite Street. "East" Ramsey Parkway is not being proposed to change since there are 58 townhomes and PACT Charter School addressed with that street name and it would be a major inconvenience to those property owners to change it.
Notification:
None as this change does not impact any addresses.
Funding Source:
This work is being done as a part of staff's normal duties.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends adopting the ordinance.
Outcome/Action:
Motion to adopt Ordinance #26-08 Amending a Street Name in the Plats of "Affinity at the COR" and "Ramsey Town Center Addition."
