NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View Planning Commission recommends to the City Council approval of a minor subdivi- sion combining two lots under consideration into one. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that contingent upon approval being given to combine the two lots into one and the applicant recording deeds in fact combining the two lots into one lot, the Mounds View Planning Commission recommends to the Mounds View City Council the • following: 1) A rezoning of the property from R-3 to R-4. 2) A density credit being granted on the development. 3) A conditional use permit be granted for the filling of a portion of the flood plain, since the proposed fill will alter the flood height by an immeasurable amount. 4) Conveyance of easement to the City for drainage purposes over wetland area.
