Item No: 08G <br />Meeting Date: September 10, 2007 <br />Type of Business: CA <br />City Administrator Review: _____ <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Desaree Crane, Assistant to the City Administrator <br /> <br />Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7155 Appointing Mounds View Representatives to <br />the Anoka County – Blaine Airport Joint Zoning Board <br /> <br /> <br />The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), with the assistance of the <br />Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC), is creating an Anoka County – Blaine Airport <br />Joint Zoning Board comprised of two (2) representatives from the following <br />communities: Blaine, Spring Lake Park, Lexington, Circle Pines, Shoreview and <br />Mounds View. MAC will have two (2) representatives and a neutral chair appointed in <br />addition to these 14 members. The main goal of this zoning board is to establish an <br />ordinance that defines zoning restrictions within the different MnDot state safety zones. <br />The cities will then enforce the ordinance as part of the regular permitting and zoning <br />process. According to MAC, the only impacts to the City of Mounds View relates to <br />Zone C, which defines certain height restrictions (mostly for water towers and other <br />excessively tall structures) and possibly some types of tower/antenna restrictions that <br />may cause interference with navigation systems. <br /> <br />Staff is requesting authorization to appoint Heidi Heller, Mounds View City Planner, and <br />Gary Stevenson, Mounds View Planning Commission Chair to this joint zoning board. <br />The other cities have named mayors, community development directors, planning <br />commission members, and/or planners to the board. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff recommends approval to appoint Heidi Heller (City Planner) and Gary Stevenson <br />(Planning Commission Chair) to the Anoka County – Blaine Airport Joint Zoning Board. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Desaree Crane <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
