Mounds View Planning Commission <br />December 20, 2000 <br />Regular Meeting Page 6 <br /> <br /> <br />Chairperson Peterson told Mr. Wilson he would be able to appeal the variance request to <br />Council if he wished. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Ericson asked Mr. Wilson to notify him as to whether he <br />wished to appear before Council on January 8, 2001 so that it could be added to the agenda. <br /> <br /> <br />6. Consideration of Resolution 643-00, a Resolution Recommending City Council <br />Adoption of Revised Ordinance 672 Regarding Home Occupations <br /> <br />Community Development Director Ericson addressed the Planning Commission and indicated <br />this ordinance had been discussed at previous meetings and a recommendation sent on to <br />Council for approval. Council sent the Ordinance back to the Planning Commission for <br />discussion as to whether the City should allow non-resident employees at home-based <br />businesses. <br /> <br />After considerable public input and discussion amongst the Commission members it was <br />determined that the City should not allow non-resident employees at home-based businesses. <br />Therefore, the only significant, non-housekeeping change to Ordinance 672 is the change to <br />disallow on-street parking for home-based businesses. Off-street parking will be unlimited <br />provided vehicles are parked in accordance with applicable codes. On-street parking would not <br />be allowed. <br /> <br />Commissioner Miller inquired as to whether the parking change to the ordinance would <br />negatively impact apartment dwellers or residents of the City’s mobile home parks. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated he did not believe the change concerning <br />parking would negatively impact apartment dwellers or residents of the City’s mobile home <br />parks as the lease with a resident’s landlord would govern allowed parking and the streets in the <br />mobile home parks are private and would fall under the requirements for off-street parking. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Johnson/Stevenson. To Approve Resolution 643-00, a Resolution <br />Recommending City Council Adoption of Revised Ordinance 672 Regarding Home <br />Occupations. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 6 Nays – 0 Motion carried. <br /> <br /> <br />7. Consideration of Resolution 644-00, a Resolution Setting the Meeting Dates for the <br />Planning Commission in 2001. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated that at the end of each year Staff presents <br />to the Planning Commission a Resolution setting the meeting dates for the coming year. The <br />meeting dates will be the first and third Wednesdays of the month with the exception of July as <br />the 4th of July is the first Wednesday.
