Mounds View City Council October 10, 2000 <br />Special Meeting Page 11 <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Stigney/Marty. To Waive the Reading and Approve Resolution 5476 with <br />the stipulation that Staff draft a security plan to be approved by the Developer and the Chief of <br />Police as part of the PUD process. <br /> <br />Council Member Quick restated the motion as a motion to approve Resolution 5476 and if there <br />are significant increases in crime levels the Chief of Police will review the matter and make a <br />recommendation to Council. <br /> <br />Council Member Stigney indicated that was not his motion. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty withdrew his second. <br /> <br />Mayor Coughlin clarified the motion to be a motion to waive the reading and approve Resolution <br />5476, a resolution regarding the development stage of the proposed Mermaid PUD with the <br />stipulation that a security plan be drafted by Staff and approved by the developer, and the Chief <br />of Police as part of the PUD Process. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND. Stigney/Coughlin. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 5476, a <br />Resolution Regarding the Development Stage of the Proposed Mermaid PUD with the stipulation <br />that a security plan be drafted by Staff and approved by the Developer, and the Chief of Police as <br />part of the PUD process. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty indicated he feels this does not need to be addressed unless there is a <br />significant change in crime levels in the development. <br /> <br />Council Member Stigney indicated his motion with the amendment is to direct Staff to look at a <br />plan, discuss it with the developer and get the approval of the Chief of Police. If the Chief of <br />Police is comfortable with the security plan, then he would be comfortable also. <br /> <br />Mayor Coughlin noted the motion needed to be further clarified to direct that Staff and the Police <br />Chief look at the security plan and express their level of comfort with that plan. <br /> <br />Mayor Coughlin noted he had received a few comments since the last Work Session regarding <br />the plans for the mermaid statue. He then asked the applicant if there was a plan to retool the <br />mermaid statue to make it more in keeping with modern sensibilities. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty indicated he had gotten comments also but said they were predominantly <br />in support of keeping the Mermaid as it is a landmark for the City. <br /> <br />Mr. Hall, the applicant, indicated there are numerous things that could be done to the statue to <br />modernize it and make it more politically correct. He noted, however, funds are tight on the <br />project and said he intends to paint the statue at this point and sometime in the future redo it. <br /> <br />Mayor Coughlin requested when the statue is painted that something be added to the statue to <br />make it more modest.
