INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS H. ADJOURN to workshop Workshop: At the request of the City Council, the Planning Commission will explore allowing certain kinds of special events under special permit, in particular, the temporary (i.e. one day) expansion of restaurant service into outdoor space not usually part of their regular business. The City has received at least three such requests this year from local businesses, and the zoning code does not allow such events at this time. At this initial work shop (planned but not held in March due to lack of time), Commissioners will receive an orientation on the zoning issue from staff and have the opportunity to become familiar with the way some other cities handle events of this kind. If you have a disability and need accommod ation in order to attend this meeting, please notify City Hall 48 hours in advance between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. at 651-792-7600. We will be happy to help .
