Mounds View City Council November 13, 2006 Regular Meeting Page 6 one to take out those wetlands that are less than one acre. 1 2 Mayor Marty said that SEH created the new set of official wetland maps based on the recent 3 delineations and he would recommend sending the updated maps to Rice Creek Watershed 4 District for informational purposes. 5 6 Mayor Marty indicated the Section 8 map on the right side off of Belle Lane, that road is 7 incorrectly labeled County Road H2 and needs to be amended. He then agreed with removal of 8 the drainage ditches and areas of less than one acre because there was a huge amount of buffer in 9 the area of ditches that is not necessary. 10 11 Mayor Marty indicated he had asked for a flood plain map with an overlay, Staff provided that, 12 and it does coincide pretty well to this new map so he now feels more comfortable with this. 13 14 Council Member Thomas asked whether the Ordinance has the removal of the one acre sites or if 15 it needs to be amended. 16 17 Director Ericson responded that the Ordinance simply adopts the maps approved by the council, 18 so no amendment to the Ordinance would be necessary. 19 20 MOTION/SECOND: Thomas/Stigney.

Introduction and First Reading of Ordinance 783, an Ordinance Amending 29 Exhibit E of the Municipal Code Relating to Planning and Development Fees 30 31 Director Ericson indicated that this is before Council as part of the review of the fee schedule for 32 the coming year and explained that the planning and development fees must be approved by 33 Ordinance. He then noted that the changes to the fees are as presented at the work session. 34 35 Council Member Stigney asked whether the items raised are due to internal costs and why they 36 are not all raised by a fixed percentage. 37 38 Director Ericson explained that costs are not consistent across the board because some actions 39 require publishing or recording and the County fees went up. He then said that there are some 40 fees that were raised because they were just not high enough for the work required. 41 42 Council Member Flaherty indicated that he is concerned with the language in the Ordinance that 43 states the fee listed is the minimum and he would like to know what is the actual fee. 44 45
