Mounds View Planning Commission September 21, 2005 Regular Meeting Page 6 ________________________________________________________________________ Commissioner Scotch asked what is on the property and can it be built on. Mr. Seipp replied nothing is on the property and nothing could likely be built on it. Commissioner Zwirn stated the parcel could be paved for additional parking. Mr. Seipp agreed. Commissioner Scotch noted there are water mains underneath and questioned whether it could be paved over. Mr. Seipp confirmed the presence of a water and natural gas main. Commissioner Hegland asked if there are any plans to use this parcel. Mr. Seipp replied no. Commissioner Scotch stated she did not know about TIF. Acting Chair Miller stated financing is not the Commission’s responsibility. Commissioner Zwirn asked when they would be allocating the TIF funds. Mr. Seipp replied because of issues such as wetland mitigation and providing access to the City on the west side ponding area, in order to get approval from corporate, he felt if they could hold down their costs to approximately one million it would be approved. Commissioner Hegland asked if there were extra costs equivalent to the TIF funds. Mr. Carda replied the cost for wetland impacts and stormwater ponding is close to $300,000. Commissioner Scotch noted no park dedication fees have been applied and feels there should be some applied. Mr. Carda replied during development in 1989 SYSCO gave 46 acres to the City, in addition to paying a Park Dedication Fee. Commissioner Zwirn noted concerns regarding SYSCO coming to the City and asking for TIF, but not paying any park dedication fees because land was given to the City. Director Ericson noted it was always the position of SYSCO to ask for TIF, adding that it is not the Commission’s responsibility to review or approve TIF financing. The City Council felt park dedication fees were not necessary since the City was given land. MOTION/SECOND: Meehlhause/Hull.
