Mayor Coughlin opened the Public Hearing at 8:10 p.m. Planning Associate Ericson stated the Mounds View Municipal Code does not at this time address tattoo or body piercing establishments. He stated that Ordinance 653, which was adopted on February 14, 2000 to prohibit any tattoo shops or body piercing establishments to be located in the City for a period of six months, has been superseded by Ordinance 667, adopted August 7, 2000, which extends the moratorium on such uses an additional three months. With the adoption of Ordinance 667, such uses cannot locate in Mounds View until November 14, 2000, or until the effective date of this proposed Ordinance 663, whichever occurs first. He explained that the Council raised some questions at the work session on August 7, 2000, regarding the licensing provisions, training and certification of the specialists. Because of other development cases being processed, staff has not had sufficient opportunity to explore these issues yet is confident that such information will be made available prior to second reading and adoption. If these questions are not fully addressed to the Council's satisfaction, second reading can be put on hold until such time that those questions are addressed. The Planning Commission has recommended adoption of Ordinance 663 as indicated in Planning Commission Resolution 629-00, approved at their meeting on July 19, 2000. Staff recommends the Council hold the public hearing (and continue it to August 28) and consider the first reading (introduction) of Ordinance 663. There was no public input. Mayor Coughlin stated the Public Hearing would be continued to the August 28, 2000 meeting.
