Planning Commission <br />1/22/08 <br />ITEM: Review of Planning Commission Policies and Procedures <br />SUBMITTED BY: Deborah Jones, Zoning and Planning Director <br />REVIEWED BY: Justin Miller, City Administrator <br />Background• <br />The standing rules for the Falcon Heights Planning Commission have not been <br />reviewed by the commission for several years. As we are in the process of <br />updating the city administrative manual, the staff would like to offer the <br />commissioners the opportunity to consider and discuss the existing standing <br />rules and submit any recommendations for change. <br />Staff requests that commissioners read the material before the meeting and come <br />prepared with any questions, items of concern or specific recommendations that <br />may come to mind. The second policy document ("B: Planning Commission') is <br />less flexible, being determined by Minnesota statute, but it also needs review, <br />and both together serve as a good orientation/review for commissioners. <br />We are also requesting a formal adoption of the standing rules as soon as the <br />Commission is satisfied with any updates that are made. A motion passed by a <br />majority is sufficient; Council approval is not required. <br />Staff recommends that commissioners add these documents to their code binders <br />for future reference. <br />Attachments• <br />• Falcon Heights Planning Commission Standing Rules, March 26,1990. <br />• Planning Commission Policies (Title: "B.
