Mounds View City Council February 14, 2000 <br />Regular Meeting Page 15 <br />Community Development Director Jopke advised that there has been notice of a public hearing <br />to be held Wednesday night, before the Planning Commission. He explained that the Interim <br />Use Permit and the Ordinance which created it also indicates that the Intenm Use Permit is valid <br />only so long as there is a valid lease, therefore, these items are all tied together, and contingent <br />upon each other. <br />Council Member Stigney stated his concern was that there be adequate public notice to residents, <br />in order that they may provide their comments, prior to the adoption of some part of this by the <br />Council. He stated he understood that the Planning Commission would hold a public hearing, <br />however, inquired if this matter would come back before the Council for another public hearing, <br />prior to the final adoption. <br />City Attorney Long stated it would. <br />Ayes - 5 Nays - 0 Motion carried. <br />Mayor Coughlin stated the public hearing pertaining to the interim use process would be held the <br />following Wednesday, in Council Chambers. He advised that this meeting would commence at <br />7:00 p.m., and would also be televised. <br />D. .Adoption of Ordinance 653, an Emergency Interim Ordinance regulating the <br />presence and siting of tattoo, body piercing, body branding, body painting, <br />and related establishments within the City. <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated this item was discussed at the Council Work Session on <br />December 7. He indicated this is an Emergency Interim Ordinance, which would allow the City <br />time to review the zoning and land use regulations pertaining to tattoo shops, body piercing, <br />branding shops, and businesses of this nature. He stated it was not anticipated the review of this <br />matter would require an extremely long period of time. He explained that staff has already <br />received some sample languages from other cities, and would bring the matter before the <br />Planning Commission in the near future. He indicated that in working with the City Attorney, <br />staff would probably have language for consideration within six months. <br />Planning Associate Ericson explained that this ordinance is drafted in a manner that it would <br />expire in six months, or at such time that the City adopts language with regard to these types of <br />uses. He indicated that this allows the City Council the opportunity to approve this ordinance at <br />this time, and is in keeping with the City's Charter and State Statutes. <br />City Attorney Long stated State Statutes specifically permit cities to adopt interim ordinances on <br />an emergency basis. He explained that the term "emergency" is only used because it allows the <br />City, through the Charter, to address these considerations in a single reading. He noted there was <br />a similar situation in the past, when adult uses had first come forward, and the City adopted an <br />Interim Use Ordinance pertaining to adult uses, in order to institute some zoning in this regard. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Thomason/Stigney.
