Mounds View Planning Commission January 10, 2007 Regular Meeting Page 9 ________________________________________________________________________ Chair Stevenson stated that if the Commission never sees anything for building and the intention is for green space and they would really like to sell parcel B and the rest would be attached to the church and there was never talk of a hi rise building, he does not see a problem at all. He indicated it would get property off the church’s tax base and it is a very sellable 16,000 square foot space, but in the back of his mind, he does not know what their intentions are. Chair Stevenson indicated he would like to know what the intentions are. Commissioner Gunn stated this is what the Commission needs from the church in order to make a better call on this situation. She stated that what Mr. Kunz just said separates it from the future plans. Mr. Kunz stated the church has always had their eye on that piece of property next to their parking lot. Commissioner Gunn stated the problem is this is not stated in the resolution and the Commission knows the church is thinking about developing the property. She indicated that there is not enough information to comfortably make a decision. She stated that even with the one year stated it is not enough information. Chair Stevenson entertained a motion to table this with the stipulation that it come back when the purpose of parcel A and B are stated or parcel A be attached to the current church property. He would like this tabled until the first Commission meeting in February unless the church agrees to postpone the 60-day requirement. Commissioner Miller mentioned that she does not know how far the church has taken their plans for building. Chair Stevenson stated this would be part of the development plan, but if the church comes back and states it would like to add parcel A to the church as green space and sell parcel B as soon as possible, the Commission would be looking at it differently.
