REPORTS <br /> Reports of Mayor and Council. <br /> <br />Mayor Flaherty reported Allina Medical Transportation was moving into the City on Woodale Avenue. He stated an Open House was scheduled for April 24th from 4:00-7:00 p.m. The entire <br /> Council and staff were invited to attend the event. <br /> <br />Council Member Hull stated Messiah Lutheran Church was holding a concert, open to the public on Sunday, April 1st at 7:00 p.m. All proceeds would benefit the Christus Chorus of Concordia <br /> College that would be performing. <br /> <br />Council Member Mueller stated last Thursday at the Mounds View Community Center, the City hosted the Ramsey County League of Local Governments meeting. The featured speaker was from <br /> the Beyond the Yellow Ribbon initiative. An update was provided on the progress Ramsey County was making to achieve Yellow Ribbon status. According to the specific items that need <br /> to be completed, Ramsey County and the cities therein, would be eligible for Yellow Ribbon status at the end of April 2012. The goal was to have this signed off by legislature before <br /> the end of its session. The intent was to have each city website in Ramsey County to have a link to the Beyond the Yellow Ribbon website. This would create greater access and information <br /> as to the services available to veterans, military personnel, and their families. <br /> <br /> B. Reports of Staff. <br /> <br />City Administrator Ericson discussed the variance request from Tim Downing at 8027 Woodlawn Drive. He stated the original variance requested was over four feet based on current City <br /> Code. When the Council upheld the Planning Commission’s decision to deny the variance, it required Mr. Downing to stay within the 20 foot height limit. However, when the actual height <br /> was measured based on the plans, the garage was only nine inches too tall. He questioned if the Council would like to reconsider the variance request given the fact there was a nine <br /> inch infraction versus the previously thought four foot difference.
