Mounds View Planning Commission July 20, 2005 Regular Meeting Page 5 ________________________________________________________________________ Commissioner Miller asked if that would be the time limit to remove the old house. Chair Stevenson stated yes. Director Ericson asked if the time frame would be six months after the building permit is issued. Commissioner Hegland stated this is assuming a permit is applied for. He suggested the six- month time frame be tied to the subdivision. He noted he has no problem with allowing a year time frame for demolishing the old house but it needs to be done if no one is residing there for an extended amount of time. Nancy Arndt stated the existing home is currently being maintained. She noted someone has spoken of interest on the second lot. Chair Stevenson stated he feels comfortable tying the entire project to a time frame for demolition of the house. He noted it would be tied to final Council approval, whereby, the applicants have one year to complete removal of the home and structures. Commissioner Miller asked if the applicant was fine with this. Mr. Arndt stated the old house would be removed before they occupy the new house. Director Ericson stated this would be more than enough time. He noted item 7 of the resolution would be modified to include this time frame. MOTION/SECOND: Miller/Zwirn.
