STAFF REPORT FOR PROPOSED ORDINANCE TO AMEND CHAPTER 1006 (FOSTER CARE) <br /> PAGE TWO OF TWO <br /> Attorney Long has drafted an ordinance for the City of Mounds View reflecting the statute requirements <br /> (pertaining to six or fewer children for foster care) for your review and consideration. This ordinance was <br /> presented to the Planning Commission for review at the April 17, 1996 Agenda meeting, but based on the <br /> Waldoch's request for more than six children, was forwarded to the City Council for direction in drafting the <br /> ordinance. <br /> The Waldoch's would like the City Council to consider allowing more than six children for foster care at their <br /> premises. Attorney Long has stated that if the City would consider allowing more than six children for foster <br /> care a process, through a conditional use permit, should be established. If the Council is to establish a <br /> conditional use permit process to allow seven or more children for foster care, the Council may wish to set <br /> limits for the total number of children which can be at a foster care facility. Attorney Long has also suggested <br /> the City Council create definitions for foster care families and different types of care facilities (ie. mentally ill, <br /> delinquency rehab, drug rehab, etc.). <br /> Attorney Long will be present at the worksession for discussion on this item. Mr. Waldoch has expressed an <br /> interest in attending this work session to provide further information on his request. <br /> • <br /> i <br />
