Mounds View City Council July 25, 1988 Regular Meeting Page Twelve Councilmember Hankner added the City takes the wetland ordinance very seriously, and the ordinances are always being looked at for updating. She added that when the wetland ordinance was written, they sought both exper- tise and community input. City Planner Herman explained this ordinance would 16 amend the wetland boundaries as discussed in the public hearing earlier tonight, and would redeliniate the lines on the official map of the City. Mr. Thorton expressed confusion, feeling this ordinance had already been discussed and passed. City Planner Herman explained they are two separate and very different ordinances, No. 444 and 447, concerning separate areas. Councilmember Hankner stated she would like to table action on this, as she was not aware of Kay Weseman's statement until just before the meeting, and she feels it would be important to have the Environmental Task Force consider the issue. Motion /Second: Hankner /Blanchard to table this item. 5 ayes 0 nays Clerk /Administrator Pauley stated that, With Council direction, he will have Barr Engineering review the document submitted by Merila and Associates and report back.
