Mounds View Planning Commission October 6, 1999 Regular Meeting Page 10 • request to move the fence, and will provide a fence connecting the buildings as indicated in the existing Planned Unit Development document. B. Comprehensive Plan meeting schedule Community Development Director Jopke stated the Commission was requested to schedule study sessions for their review of the City's Comprehensive Plan. He noted the first draft of the overall Comprehensive Plan is almost complete, and at this point, the entire document is open for discussion, to insure it reflects what the Commission believes should be a plan for the community. He suggested the Planning Commission consider the Wednesdays in October for scheduling the study sessions. Commissioner Miller stated she would be out of town on October 27, and would not be available for that meeting. Commissioner Kaden inquired if there were any significant changes to the draft plan, and if there would be sufficient time to review the document prior to the first meeting. Jopke explained the Commissioners would probably receive a hand-delivered copy the following Monday, however, it would likely require more than one meeting to review the draft, and the Commission could take as much time as necessary for their review to insure they feel comfortable with the document. Chair Peterson asked if the preliminary maps would be available in time for the first of the study sessions. Jopke stated he was uncertain, however, the GIS consultant had indicated he was presently putting the final touches on the maps. He commented he had not seen the maps to date, and he believed they would be very good, however, he may need to make some changes prior to their completion. MOTION/SECOND: Laube/Kaden.

He added that the meeting on October 27 would conflict with the Parks and Recreation meeting. Commissioner Hegland noted that this was just a review of the Comprehensive Plan, not the final version, and televising this review might not be necessary. Community Development Director Jopke advised that there be a least one informational forum to 1111 present the plan to the community, and a more formal public hearing following that, therefore
