Mounds View Planning Commission February 16, 2000 Regular Meeting Page 15 Planning Associate Ericson stated all properties within 350 feet of the golf course property were notified. Commissioner Kaden inquired if there were five of these properties.

Commissioner Stevenson stated page 5 of Eller Media’s proposal indicates the statement “We propose the two most westerly signs on the edge of the wetland area be originally constructed as standard monopole billboard structures, and then, be converted to this design when the golf
