CITY OF ROSEVILLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROCESS <br /> The Roseville Planning Commission completed its comprehensive plan review on <br /> August 10, 1994 and forwarded the document to the Council for review and <br /> approval. Members of the Commission were present to present a summary of the <br /> plan at the meeting. Keith Wietecki, Roseville Planning Commission Chair, <br /> outlined what has changed in the Comprehensive Plan, providing direction to: <br /> ♦ Provide.better density balance; where not planned or expected, <br /> higher densities have had detrimental impacts on the surrounding <br /> land uses. <br /> ♦ Encourage housing styles and housing costs which fit the life styles <br /> of all ages. <br /> ♦ Preserve existing neighborhoods to maintain and enhance single <br /> family homes. <br /> ♦ Encourage experimentation with new commerciaUresidential <br /> mixes in areas not affecting existing single family areas such as the <br /> southwest corner of Langton Lake based'on Twin Lakes Plan. <br /> ♦ Improve the quality of the transportation system, noting that <br /> Roseville's life safety, environment, and aesthetics should not <br /> decline because of"pass-through" commuting. <br /> ♦ Construct or rehabilitate pathways throughout the community. <br /> ♦ Eliminate further encroachment into residentially zoned areas . <br /> with more commercial/industrial uses. More jobs and more stores <br /> are fine but stay within the same land area. <br /> ♦ Build up, not out, in commercial and industrial areas. <br /> ♦ Convert underused or blighted commercial areas to new <br /> commercial or multi-family uses. <br /> ♦ Pay particular attention to environmental/quality of life issues <br /> such as water, air, waste production, energy, and ecological <br /> - awareness. <br /> PREFACE- 1 <br />
