Mounds View City Council October 10, 2005 Regular Meeting Page 9 • Development. Mayor Marty invited public comment. There were no public comments made. Mayor Marty closed the public hearing at 7:50 p.m. Councilmember Thomas thanked staff for looking into the easement issues on the outlots. Mayor Marty asked if Ordinance 765 would be changed to state this. Director Ericson responded he was not sure it was appropriate to be in the ordinance, but it would be in the preliminary plat. He requested on Resolution 6630 the last sentence under Resolved S. be stricken. Director Ericson requested changing the resolution to require phase 2 and phase 3 come back before the Council. He indicated the intent was to get authorization for the full buildout, but if Council only wanted to approve Phase 1 at this time, that was in their power to do that. City Attorney Riggs stated the Council had broad discretion in this matter. He indicted the development contract contemplates a phased development and if there were any deviations from that, it would have to come back to Council. He stated he did not believe they were dealing with the same issues. • Director Ericson stated in his staff report he recommended if there were no changes made to the development, Medtronic could move forward with it, but if changes were made, this needed to be reviewed by the City Council. He noted they could add this to the Resolution. Councilmember Flaherty believed this was a good idea and asked if something could be written in the ordinance addressing this also. Community Development Director Ericson responded they could do that also. Mayor Marty stated he had a question on Resolution 6630, first page, item 3. He noted subsequent changes would be dealt with by future Councils and he suggested they have something in there that Council has a cursory review. He indicated he wanted to leave that option open. Councilmember Thomas stated she had no problem stating that Council should look at changes, but reminded the Council that they were approving a three phase development and that was the whole point of the plan and cautioned them to not go too far down the road. She stated they had to draw the line at some point and every choice the Council made, a future Council needed to deal with. She stated as long as the plans did not change, Medtronic should not be required to come back to .Council. Director Ericson suggested striking under Resolution 6630, item 3 "with the exception of updating the transportation mitigation plan". He also suggested adding after approved plans "all applicable current codes and regulations." • Mayor Marty asked if they could create a swale or berm to contain the water on the current hole 9 so all water was maintained on their property. Public Works Director Lee responded that could
