• Mounds View Planning Commission May 6, 1998 Regular Meeting Page 5 A code amendment, it was stated, is necessary prior to the issuance of any occupancy permits for the new Mounds View Community Center which is under renovation/construction on the site of the former Bel Rae Ballroom. Staff recommended that the Planning Commission pass Resolution No. 546-98, a Resolution recommending that City Council approve Ordinance No. 617; an ordinance relating to zoning, the B-3 Highway Business District and the permitted uses thereof, and amending Title 1114, Section 1114.02 in the Mounds View City Code; Planning Case No. SP062-98. Commissioner Brasaemle stated he viewed the community center use as less intensive than the uses already allowed under the B-3 zoning. Because of this, he said he would prefer to deal with the rezoning on a permitted-use basis. Commissioner Stevenson agreed with Brasaemle's viewpoint on the issue. Chairperson Peterson stated there would be less control of the development with the permitted use. • Commissioners Miller and Brooks stated in favor of the permitted-use approach. Motion/Second: Brasaemle/Miller to approve Resolution 546-98, a Resolution recommending that the City Council approve Ordinance No. 617; an ordinance relating to zoning, B-3 Highway Business District and the Permitted Uses Thereof, and amending Title 1114, Section 1114.02 in the Mounds View Code; Planning Case No. SP062-98.
