Item No: 6C Meeting Date: December 4, 2013 Type of Business: Other Planning Activity City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Mounds View Planning Commission From: Heidi Heller, Planning Associate Subject: Consideration of Resolution 996-13, Establishing the Planning Commission’s 2014 Meeting Schedule. Introduction: The Planning Commission establishes its meeting schedule each year by resolution. Discussion: The meeting schedule proposed for 2013 represents the usual first and third Wednesday of every month. There is a conflict with January dates since the first Wednesday is January 1. There are a few options: 1. Since there are five Wednesdays in January, we could push both meetings back a week, BUT, if we were to have the meeting on W ednesday, January 8, it would have to be an 8:00pm start. The Charter Commission meets that day but is willing to adjust their meeting time in order for the Planning Commission to also hold a meeting that night. 2. Change the first meeting to Thursday, January 2, 2013 and keep the other meeting on the regular day and week, January 15. 3. Change the first meeting to either Tuesday, January 7 or Thursday, January 9 (during the second week of January) and then either keep the meeting during the third week on Wednesday, January 15, or move it to the fourth week, Wednesday, January 22 so we don’t have meetings two weeks in a row. In addition, the first July and September meetings are two days from the holiday days. If the Commission chooses, alternative meeting dates can be discussed for those months also. Recommendation: Discuss the meeting dates and adjust the schedule. Approve Resolution 996-13, establishing the 2014 meeting schedule of the Planning Commission. Respectfully submitted, Heidi Heller Planning Associate
