COUNCIL BUSINESS <br />A. Public Hearing 7:05: for Second Reading and Consideration of Ordinance <br />628, an Ordinance Amending Chapter 1001 of the Mounds View Building <br />Code Pertaining to Contractors Licenses <br />Mayor Coughlin opened the Public Hearing at 7:37 p.m. <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated that this ordinance revises the City Code to allow for the <br />annual renewal of contractors licenses, as opposed to renewal in the middle of the building <br />season. He noted a revision to the ordinance, which was not reflected in the Council's packet. <br />He stated that the ordinance would delete references to "Fire Protection" from the license <br />requirement, as indicated in a footnote, as this is already required by the State. He stated that the <br />text attached to the footnote would also be deleted, causing the other footnotes in the ordinance <br />to be re-numbered. He stated that this change will be incorporated into the ordinance and, other <br />than this, it has not changed from the first reading. <br />Mayor Coughlin closed the Public Hearing at 7:40 p.m. <br />Council Member Marty stated that he found no problem in relation to the ordinance, adding that <br />it had been discussed on numerous occasions. <br />Mayor Coughlin agreed, adding that, as a contractor himself, he found that the revision made <br />much more sense than the previous requirement, and stated his approval for the recommendation. <br />6N: \DATA\US ERSUOANB\S HAREiMINUTES\CC\ 1999\06-2 8-99.
