FALCON HEIGHTS <br />2077 W. Larpenteur Avenue <br />Falcon Heights, MN 55113-5594 <br />email: mailCa~ci.falcon-heights.mn.us <br />website: www.ci.falcon-heights.mn.us <br />MEMORANDUM <br />To: Members of the Planning Commission <br />CC: Heather Worthington, City Administrator; <br />Peter Lindstrom, Council Liaison <br />From: Deb Jones, Staff Liaison <br />Subject: Planning Commission Meeting on February 22 <br />Date: February 18, 2004 <br />Phone - (651) 792-7600 <br />Fax - (651) 792-7610 <br />There are two items of business before the Planning Commission this month. First, you need to elect a <br />Chair for 2005! <br />Second, we have a public hearing on the new IUP for the Farmer's Market. We briefly discussed the <br />• latter at the workshop on January 29. For those who were not present, the essentials are covered in the <br />staff report. <br />The most significant change this year is that we are proposing to change the time limit of the lUP -from <br />one year, as for 2003 and 2004, to such time as the credit union no longer owns the property or is no <br />longer the main occupant of the premises, or until the other conditions are no longer met. This will make <br />it unnecessary to keep applying annually. TCCU has shown they are a responsible host to the market and <br />a good neighbor. <br />At the close of the meeting we will adjourn to the last (!)workshop on Chapter 9 (phase 1). The goal of <br />this phase is to identify areas that need extra research and possible revision when we rewrite this chapter <br />of our code in the year ahead. I have updated the summary of areas that have been identified so far and <br />enclosed a copy to refresh your memory. If there is anything that raised a red flag in your reading of the <br />code that you do not see on this list, please bring it up at any time. <br />The sections that still need the first going-over are Sections 15, 16 and 17, so you will probably want to <br />reread those before the meeting if you haven't reviewed them recently. You should all have copies of <br />those portions; if not, please contact me. You may have additional insight since the workshop on January <br />29! I also enclose as "study aids," copies of what some other cities have on variances, and relevant <br />material I found on the state website, all of which may be of interest to you as a comparison to our code, <br />plus a handout from the training that we did not get to that morning. <br />If you are unable to attend Tuesday's meeting, please let Staff know as soon as possible. We need a <br />quorum! <br />• <br />HOME OF THE MINNESOTA STATE FAIR AND THE U OF M INSTITUTE OF AGRICULTURE <br />~~,\) PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER <br />
