Mounds View Planning Commission September 3, 2003 <br />Regular Meeting Page 2 <br />________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />4. Citizens Requests and Comments on Items Not on the Agenda <br /> <br />None. <br />______________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />5. Consider Resolution 736-03 Recommending Rezoning of All Parcels within the PF, <br />Public Facility Zoning District. Special Planning Case SP-118-03. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated this was to be a continued discussion <br />concerning the rezoning of all parcels within the PF zoning district. He then indicated that there <br />are 17 parcels owned by the City with that zoning designation and reviewed the previous <br />discussions with the Commission, Council and City Attorney leading up to the proposal that the <br />parcels be rezoned to be more consistent the with typical zoning practice of zoning based on use <br />not owner. <br /> <br />Director Ericson indicated there is one major change in this packet and that is the proposed <br />rezoning of the golf course. He indicated that, after discussing the matter with the City Attorney, <br />the golf course was changed to a rezone to industrial rather than commercial. He then handed <br />out a revised map for review showing the changes noting that the well locations were changed to <br />reflect a rezone to single-family residential rather than industrial. <br /> <br />Director Ericson indicated that the golf course use is only allowed in the PF zoning district so an <br />amendment to the text of the Code would be required to make golf courses an allowed use in the <br />I-1 zoning district. <br /> <br />Director Ericson explained that the City would need to review its zoning map and future land use <br />map as well as looking at compatible zoning districts in the near future. <br /> <br />Acting Chair Miller asked if it would be necessary to amend the Comprehensive Plan sent to the <br />Metropolitan Council. <br /> <br />Director Ericson indicated that the Comprehensive Plan does need to be reviewed in terms of the <br />future land use map and recommended the City review the Comprehensive Plan in 2004 for any <br />required amendments. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hegland asked whether it would be necessary to purge any other areas of the <br />Code for the PF designation. <br /> <br />Director Ericson indicated he thought it would be appropriate to delete that chapter and replace it <br />with the new POD or pawn overlay district. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zwirn asked if there were any negative tax effects of doing this. <br /> <br />Director Ericson indicated there were not. He then said that the City Attorney has reviewed the <br />proposal and finds no negative consequences with rezoning the PF districts.
