UNAPPROVED <br /> Mounds View Planning Commission October 2, 1996 • <br /> Regular Meeting Page 14 <br /> member liaison has been present at almost <br /> every meeting. <br /> They further discussed which meeting would be <br /> more crucial for the council liaison to attend, • <br /> the agenda or regular meeting. The Planning <br /> Commission felt that the items are discussed in <br /> more detail at the agenda meeting and no <br /> minutes are taken at this meeting. Director <br /> Sheldon informed the Commission that she had <br /> a discussion with Attorney Bob Long regarding <br /> a member of the Planning Commission <br /> reporting to Council on the kind business that <br /> the Planning Commission does. She sees a <br /> problem in cases going on to the Council for <br /> decision and of having a separate report <br /> outside of the public hearing on cases they are <br /> going to be deciding. She felt the Planning <br /> Commission's work is different from the other <br /> • <br /> Commissions noting that there is a definite <br /> procedure that takes it from the Planning <br /> Commission to the Council and that there are <br /> hearing provisions to protect the neighbors and <br /> property owners. She added that Attorney <br /> Long thought that it was a point that needed to <br /> be clarified with the Council. <br /> Commissioner Brooks brought up a comment <br /> about the City Council receiving minutes and it <br /> was noted that the City Council does receive a <br /> copy of the approved Planning Commission <br /> minutes. <br /> Commissioner Obert commented that he felt <br /> the work done by the Planning Commission is <br /> the "fabric" of the City and that they also lay the <br /> ground work for the City and is very concerned <br /> that a Council member does not come to the <br /> meetings because not all things that go on at <br /> the Planning Commission can be recorded on • <br /> paper. <br />
