LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL AGENDA AUGUST 15, 1995 4 <br />6. PLANNING/LAND USE & ZONING: <br />A. Request Funding for Brown's Creek WMO <br />M/S/P DeLapp/Hunt - to fund $200.00 of the scoping study of the Brown's Creek Watershed. <br />(Motion passed 5-0). <br />M/S/P DeLapp/Johnston - to commit Lake Elmo's share of $425.00 towards the <br />hydrologic/hydraulic study of Brown's Creek. (Motion passed 5-0). <br />B. INFORMATIONAL: Roadway Services Concept/Land Use Analysis <br />At the August 1, 1995 meeting, the Council directed the City Planner to review the information <br />submitted by Roadway Services in order to determine if this development would be <br />appropriate along the 1-94 Corridor. Based on the information submitted to the City in March <br />of 1995, the City Planner concluded that this use may not be appropriate based on current <br />land use policies established along the 1-94 Corridor. Until the City specifically studies the <br />area, no change in the Comprehensive Plan should be made at this time to allow this type of <br />use. To change the existing policies to accommodate such a use may set a a bad <br />precedence for the area. The City's Comprehensive Plan should be amended based on a <br />detailed study of the area which would then reflect the goals and objectives of the City of Lake <br />Elmo and not to accommodate a use which may not be appropriate. <br />C. Overland Park Trip - Overview <br />City Planner Terwedo provided a memo on the July 20th visit to Overland Park, Kansas to tour <br />an Office Park complex, Corporate Woods which is known as a good example of a planned <br />unit development incorporating good site design with quality architecture. The Administrator <br />and Planner felt the trip was very educational. <br />D. Update on Minnesota Design Team Visit <br />City Planner Terwedo provided a schedule for the September 28 - September 30 Design <br />Team visit. The steering committee has met 3 times, twice with the two representatives of the <br />design team. A Volunteer Meeting is scheduled for Thursday, August 24, 1995 at 5 p.m. <br />7.
