• Mounds View Planning Commission August 20, 1997 <br /> Special Meeting Page 11 <br /> Commission Johnston read from the PUD: "At the time of the development stage plan <br /> review the City Council shall obtain a recommendation from Parks and Recreation <br /> Commission and shall determine that the property owner/developer shall build a walkway <br /> along part or all of the perimeter of the wetland prior to acting on the development stage." <br /> Mr. Black responded by saying that the trail issue was brought up at an earlier meeting <br /> with the City. At that time it was recommended that there be a cash dedication in lieu of <br /> land. <br /> Commissioner Stevenson said that the comments were made so that Parks and <br /> Recreation didn't jeopardize the fee percentage for land or for path development. He <br /> added that Parks and Recreation would just as soon have the owner develop a path and <br /> would prefer that the trails be bike/walking/sidewalks. <br /> Planner Peters stated that it would take the cooperation of all the property owners to do <br /> a loop around the wetland. Short of achieving that, the walkway along the easement <br /> would be an acceptable option. <br /> • Commissioner Miller asked if the 60-day-time frame is still intact. <br /> Planner Peters responded by saying the 60-day-time period would end September 23, <br /> 1997. <br /> Chair Peterson asked if it was anticipated that any of the trees on the existing site could <br /> be saved. <br /> Mr. Black answered "no". <br /> Planner Peters went on to review the plat. He stated Gateway Easements, Drainage and <br /> Utility Easements, Right-of-Way and Park Dedication Fees as issues that need to be <br /> addressed before any action can be taken at the development by the Planning Commission. <br /> Chair Peterson asked the owner/developer if they had any questions or comments. <br /> Mr. Durand asked the Commission for its opinion on the project to date. <br /> Chair Peterson stated that it was his opinion that the old T7B building and the small <br /> office building are too close together and he hoped something could be done about that. <br /> Commissioner Miller said she was glad that the fast food service was eliminated in the <br /> • <br /> convenience store. She said she felt there would have been too much congestion. <br />
