Page 6 <br />Apri127, 1998 <br />Mounds View City Council <br />MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Stigney to AMEND the previous motion to include a continuation date of <br />May 11, 1998. <br />Council member Stigney noted that one of the Council members is absent and he feels this is a pivotal <br />issue. He would like to have all council members available to vote on Items 5 (D) and (E). <br />Council member Koopmeiners felt it may be wise to continue the public hearing AFTER the <br />Comprehensive Plan update for Mounds View has been adopted. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Koopmeiners/McCarty to AMEND the previous motion to include an indefmite date <br />subsequent to the completion and adoption of the Comprehensive Plan Update for the City of Mounds <br />View. <br />Council member Stigney asked when the Comprehensive Plan Update is expected to be completed. <br />Mayor McCarty noted that it must be completed by December 31, 1998. <br />Attorney Long noted that if there is not a date certain, the City wilt be required to re-notice the Public <br />Hearing. <br />Mr. Rick Jopke, Community Development Director, asked about the 60 day approvaUdenial requirement. <br />Mr. Ericson stated a 60-day extension has already been granted, and May 29, 1998 will be the deadline for <br />a council decision. If the Council does not make a decision by that date, it will automatically be approved. <br />An additiona160 day extension could be granted, but would require the approval of the developer. <br />Mayor McCarty noted that even with an additiona160-day extension, the Comprehensive Plan Update may <br />not be completed. He is concerned about maintaining the confidence and trust of the residents. He feels <br />the Council needs to act decisively and take action tonight. He does not see this proposal as the pivotal <br />point in all that the council is attempting to do. He feels the council members and staff need to honor <br />their commitments to a full, complete public involvement in the Comprehensive Planning process. <br />He is appealing to the Council to deny both of the motions and open the Public Hearing to allow residents <br />to give their input. <br />VOTE on Amending original motion to approve continuation of Public Hearing after a Comprehensive <br />Plan Update has been approved by the City of Mounds View. <br />3 ayes 1 nay (McCarty) Motion Carried <br />Council member Koopmeiners stated he misunderstood the motion, and he would like to motion to <br />reconsider the previous vote. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Koopmeiners/McCarty to reconsider the previous motion. <br />VOTE: 4 ayes 0 nays Motion Carried <br />MOTION/SECOND: Koopmeiners/McCarty to withdraw their original motion to continue the Public <br />Hearing after a Comprehensive Plan Update has been approved by the City of Mounds View. <br />
