One of the Commission's functions is to hold public hearings and make
recommendations to the City Council. The City Council makes all final
decisions on these matters.
Lake Elmo Ordinances require that certain documents and
information be included in applications. The Planning Commission may
postpone consideration of an application that is incomplete and may for
other reasons postpone final action on an application.
For each item, the Commission will receive reports prepared by
the City Staff, open the hearing to the public, and discuss and act on the
application. If you are aware of information that hasn't been discussed,
please fill out a "Request to Appear Before the Planning Commission" slip;
or, if you came late, raise your hand to be recognized. Comments that are
pertinent are appreciated.

MINUTES: Due to lack of a quorum, those Planninng Commission members
present determined the August 8th minutes should be held over for approval

1988 WORK PLAN: The 1988 Work Plan was reviewed by the Planning
Commission to determine work programs completed, as well as priority items
to be addressed during the balance of the year.
It was determined that:
(1.) #2. Comp Plan: The Planning Commission would continue to attempt to
complete the Comp Plan this year; that Lee Hunt would attempt to convert
the IBM disc to an Apple disc, whereupon the City staff would assist with
completion of the Draft Plan and distribute to PZ members for review.
(2.) #5. State Shoreland Proposed Revisions: Chairman DeLapp will copy PZ
members the proposed more restrictive revisions.
(3.) #8,9. Accessory Buildings: City Attorney is preparing a draft
ordinance addressing accessory structures.
(4.) #18. Sign Ordinance: Currently being reviewed. Enes will discuss,
with business association, feasibility of setting another meeting to
discuss ordinance. It was suggested Hagstrom Builders be asked to attend
and/or comment (particularly in relation to architectural standards for
signs).
(5.) #27. Residential Estate Zoning. Subcommittee is currently working on
this ordinance concept; next meeting to be held September 8, 1988.
COUNCIL/PLANNING COMMISSION LIAISON: Members discussed the need for
better communication to Council on rationale of PZ actions. Possibility
of designation of a Council member to attend PZ meetings and, conversely,
a PZ member to attend Council meetings, was reviewed.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Marge Williams reviewed the status of the Comp Plan,
i.e., what has been accomplished and what has yet to be done. It was
decided: Todd Williams and Lee Hunt would work together for conversion to
Apple all documentation already gathered, after which City staff would run
for PZ review; Hunt/DeLapp will assume responsibility for maps and graphs.
