Acting Mayor Koopmeiners stated the Council will consider the questions brought forth and will respond to them accordingly. Sherry Gunn,8120 Red Oak Court,asked if there were city regulations and codes in regard to the sale of guns and ammunition in Mounds View, or if this were strictly state regulated. Mr.Whiting stated he would have staff check on this. Acting Mayor Koopmeiners stated he believes this is governed by both the city and State. A resident at 8475 Eastwood Road,stated she just recently found out about the Silver Lake Commons project and feels this is the case for many in her area. She noted how two similar proposals in the cities of Maple Grove and Blaine were denied by their City Councils after residents strongly protested. William Werner,2765 Sherwood Road,stated Commissioners seem to take a very narrow view in making recommendations to the Council. He asked if the it would be possible for the Mayor to provide descriptions as to the responsibilities for members of the various commissions. Cameron Obert,8315 Greenwood Drive,stated the Planning Commission does a lot of the investigative work • for the City Council. The commissioners help to do the background work and serve as an advisory to the City Council.

Therefore,his advise to the Council and staff is to take time to thoroughly research this development proposal before they make a final decision.
