Mounds View City Council October 10, 2005 Regular Meeting Page 9 Development. 1 2 Mayor Marty invited public comment. There were no public comments made. 3 4 Mayor Marty closed the public hearing at 7:50 p.m. 5 6 Councilmember Thomas thanked staff for looking into the easement issues on the outlots. 7 8 Mayor Marty asked if Ordinance 765 would be changed to state this. Director Ericson responded 9 he was not sure it was appropriate to be in the ordinance, but it would be in the preliminary plat. 10 He requested on Resolution 6630 the last sentence under Resolved 5. be stricken. 11 12 Director Ericson requested changing the resolution to require phase 2 and phase 3 come back 13 before the Council. He indicated the intent was to get authorization for the full buildout, but if 14 Council only wanted to approve Phase 1 at this time, that was in their power to do that. 15 16 City Attorney Riggs stated the Council had broad discretion in this matter.
