<br />Mounds View City Council
<br />Non-Residential Conditional Uses in Residential Districts, and Amending Title 1100, Sections
<br />1102.01,1104.01,1104.02,1106.04,1107.05,1109.0-4,1110.04, 1121.09,1121.11 and 1123.02.
<br />Mayor Linke opened the Public Hearing at 7:40 p.m.
<br />Ms. Sheldon, Director of Community Development, explained that this item relates to non-residential uses
<br />that are permitted in residential districts. In a recent proposal to the City of Mounds View for a church to
<br />be constructed in a residential district, concern was raised by residents in the area who felt that the five foot
<br />requirement was not sufficient to provide adequate buffering between parking lots and residences. One of
<br />the residents from the neighborhood proposed an amendment to the City Code, which would increase the
<br />five foot requirement to fifteen feet between parking lots and property lines. After review, the Planning
<br />Commission has recommended that the setback be 20 feet for sites of 2.5 acres or less, and 30 feet for sites
<br />of more than 2.5 acres. In addition, the Planning Commission and staff looked at some other issues which
<br />they felt needed to be addressed at the same time such as minimum lot size requirements for larger scale,
<br />non-residential uses. The proposed changes would require a minimum one acre lot size for non-residential
<br />use. Ms. Sheldon also explained other items which the proposed ordinance would clarify.
<br />With no questions from the Council or residents, Mayor Linke closed the Public Hearing at 7:44 p.m.
<br />MOTION/SECOND: Hankner/Trade to approve the Introduction of Ordinance No. 590, Relating to
<br />Setbacks for Parking Lots, Driveways, and Principal and Accessory Buildings; Minimum Lot Area for

<br />Title 1100, Sections 1102.01, 1104.01, 1104.02, 1106.04, 1107.05, 1109.04, 1110.04, 1121.09, 1121.11

<br />Mr. Ulrich, Public Works Director, provided an outline of events as they occurred in relation to the
<br />Bronson Drive Reconstruction project, including the dates in which letters were sent to affected residents
<br />informing them of the status of the project. The final cost of the project was $728,233, with $399,916
<br />being paid by the city, and $328,618 to be paid by residents. Two assessment rolls were prepared, one
<br />taking into consideration applying the $15,000 in the storm water management fund to the cost, should it
