Charter Commission <br /> April 8, 1999 <br /> Page 4 <br /> what the Metropolitan Council anticipated regarding population and development. The <br /> Metropolitan Council determines if the City's Plan fits with other communities. The City <br /> expects a report back from the Metropolitan Council in June, 1999. <br /> Mayor Sullivan noted a 4/5 vote is required to implement the Plan. The one sticking point <br /> regarding a 4/5 vote is the amount of MUSA to be requested. The number of homes,population, <br /> and commercial/industrial growth has been agreed on. <br /> Mayor Sullivan advised the Council is very close to a 4/5 vote. The Council is waiting for some <br /> final figures from staff. She stated she expects to have a Comprehensive Plan with a 4/5 vote by <br /> at the next Council work session. <br /> Chair Montain asked if the City would, therefore, have a final Comprehensive Plan by June or <br /> July, 1999. <br /> Mayor Sullivan stated she feels confident the City will have a final Plan by that time depending <br /> on the response from the Metropolitan Council. <br /> Mayor Sullivan stated the next step is to update the zoning and ordinances to back up the <br /> Comprehensive Plan. The City has nine (9) months to implement the changes. At this time the <br /> City has no way to slow development until the ordinances are changes Some draft ordinances <br /> were written as the Comprehensive Plan was developed. Council will be working with staff, City <br /> planners, the Planning & Zoning Board, and other City Boards to implement the changes. <br /> Commissioner Dunn suggested that if a 4/5 vote is not achieved, Council should work very hard <br /> to resolve the issues. He suggested a resolution be passed if a 4/5 vote is achieved before a final <br /> vote is made. <br /> CHARTER LANGUAGE, CHAPTER 8 <br /> Chair Montain informed the Council that the Charter Commission has been talking about <br /> revising Chapter 8 of the Charter for quite some time. Commissioner Sullivan has been working <br /> on this project. Any word changes to the Charter need to be approved by a citizen vote or the <br /> super majority of the Council and 2/3 of the Charter Members. <br /> Chair Montain advised the reason for the possible changes are to make the Charter easier to read. <br /> Commissioner Sullivan asked Council Members for their opinion regarding the revision of <br /> Chapter 8. He stated Charter Members may choose to end the process if Council is not <br /> agreeable. <br /> Mayor Sullivan stated it is the decision of the Charter Commission to initiate a change. She <br /> stated she would welcome an easier to read document for clarification purposes only. <br /> 4 <br />
