<br />Mounds View Planning Commission February 16, 2000 <br />Regular Meeting Page 22 <br /> <br /> <br />billboards are delayed that it would cost the City between $800 to $1,000. He stated there were a <br />number of other issues, such as the lease agreement, which must be developed, finalized, <br />executed, and approved by the Council, and he was not certain regarding the time line for these <br />matters. He stated the State permit must be obtained, however, he was uncertain regarding this <br />process, and the amount of time involved. He explained that there were other actions that must <br />occur, independent of the Planning Commission action. <br /> <br />Chairperson Peterson inquired at what point the revenues to the City would commence, should <br />this matter be approved. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Jopke stated this is probably stipulated in the lease <br />agreement, however, he would assume that when the signs are constructed, and there is <br />advertisement in place, the signs would begin to generate revenue. <br /> <br />Chairperson Peterson inquired if this would not be any time earlier than the construction and first <br />availability for use. <br /> <br />Mr. Dean stated the first payment would be made when the construction has commenced. He <br />indicated that they do not have any control at the beginning of the process, however, once they <br />are ready to pull a building permit, they should have a crew available for construction. He stated <br />once all of the discretionary approvals are completed, they could commence the process. <br /> <br />Chairperson Peterson commented that the issue of $800 per day in lost revenues was somewhat <br />premature to bring forward at this point, because there are so many steps in the process. <br /> <br />Mr. Dean pointed out that this was not their number, however, it was likely utilized to indicate <br />the sense of urgency with regard to this matter. <br /> <br />Commissioner Stevenson stated the Planning Commission should completely ignore this factor <br />at this time. <br /> <br />Commissioner Laube stated the first item to forward to the Council is a request that the City <br />work with Sysco to resolve the sign spacing issue as relates to the Sysco property. <br /> <br />Chairperson Peterson inquired if both applicants felt they could work out some sort of agreement <br />to the benefit of both parties. <br /> <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated on behalf of the City, they would do what they could. He <br />explained that this depends upon the spacing, and there may be some concerns regarding <br />different environmental features on the golf course and the adjacent properties. <br /> <br />Chairperson Peterson stated he would like to eliminate the need for a formal resolution in order <br />to proceed in what appears to be the natural course of action.
