REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
MARCH 3, 1986
Black, Duncan, Northrup, Grittner, Daykin, Trent-Sullivan and Finegan.
Also present was Council Liaison Hard.
Mead and Boche.
Duncan moved, seconded by Trent-Sullivan, to approve the February 3, 1986
Minutes as presented. Motion carried unanimously.
Grittner expressed concern about the Planning Commission making decisions
not knowing all the legalities contained in the code and based upon lack
of knowledge. Questioned whether an opportunity should be made available
at a future meeting for the Planning Commission to familiarize themselves
with the code although it would be hard to anticipate every situation they
could be confronted with. Members felt the comments were well taken and
such a meeting should be scheduled.
John Uban reviewed the Snelling/Larpenteur development as it related to
parking and why the need to review the parking ratios arose. New
restaurants seem to create a need for more parking as the common space
should be considered in determining parking needs. He explained how he
arrived at the recommended parking ratios. Uban also addressed the drive-
in. and delivery restaurant parking needs. Shared parking also needs to be
a consideration. After a thorough discussion, Finegan moved approval of
the proposed ordinance relating to off street parking and loading contained
in Section 9-13.04, Subd. 6 of the Code of the City of Falcon Heights with
a recommendation that the language be changed to read: "Off-street parking
spaces required (one (1) space equals three hundred (300) square feet)...."
Duncan seconded the motion and the motion was approved unanimously.
Duncan moved, seconded by Grittner that Item ~1~11 contained in Section 9-13.04,
Subd. 6 of the Code of the City of Falcon Heights be approved. Motion carried.
unanimously. (The two paragraphs contained therein should be combined.)
Finegan moved, seconded by Grittner, that Item ~~16 contained in Section 9-13.04,
Subd. 6 of the Code of the City of Falcon Heights be approved. Motion carried
unanimously.

Subd. 6 of the Code of the City of Falcon Heights be approved. Motion carried
