Mounds View Planning Commission April 1, 2009 <br />Regular Meeting Page 5 <br />has it envisioned in his mind. He stated it might be easier for the Planning Commission to <br />understand if there was some documentation to back up this vision. <br />Chair Stevenson stated he is concerned about the proposal. It sounds like a good idea but he is <br />hesitant that it may not run as smoothly as proposed. <br />Community Development Director Roberts asked if this was something they wanted to have <br />brought back to the Planning Commission. <br />Commissioner Walsh-Kaczmarek stated it was her understanding that the regular business <br />operation would be going on simultaneously with the outdoor sales. <br />Commissioner Meehlhause questioned the limited amount parking for the prospective customers. <br />Mr. Halverson stated after 9:00 am if there are any open vendor spots, these would be used for <br />customer parking. <br />Community Development Director Roberts asked if Robert's had a contingency plan if the <br />parking lot is full, will there be someone at the entrance stopping cars from entering the parking <br />lot. <br />Commissioner Cramblit asked if he has approached Moes Restaurant as a contingency plan. <br />Mr. Halverson stated Moe's and Robert's have worked together with parking issues previously <br />and will talk with Moe's for a contingency plan. <br />Commissioner Walsh-Kaczmarek suggested adding a review date to the resolution to ensure the <br />operation is going smoothly. <br />Community Development Director Roberts indicated he would be surprised if parking is an issue <br />within the first year of operation. <br />Commissioner Cramblit indicated that he thought this idea would work but he feels the Planning <br />Commission needs more information. <br />Chair Stevenson asked what additional information the applicant should provide for the next <br />meeting. <br />Commissioner Walsh-Kaczmarek stated she would like to see the flea market vendor portion <br />have some control. In addition, she would like to see Mounds View residents have some <br />preference over other vendors. She stated she would like to see this operation be successful <br />because it will bring vitality into the area but she feels the Planning Commission needs more <br />written information for the next meeting. <br />
