Mounds View City Council April 24, 2006 <br />Regular Meeting Page 19 <br /> <br />Councilmember Flaherty stated he has no problem with public feedback on decision making, but <br />he does not believe the question as presented gives the entire scope of what the possibility is. He <br />stated he does not believe the question as it is stated should be on the Town Hall Survey. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 2 Nays – 3 (Flaherty, Gunn, Thomas) <br /> <br />Motion fails for lack of a majority. <br /> <br />Director Ericson asked if the reconsideration of the Ordinance requires that it goes back to the <br />First Reading. <br /> <br />City Attorney Riggs indicated the Charter is not clear on that issue, but the Council has discretion <br />in the Readings for decision making. He stated that just because the Ordinance was <br />reconsidered, it does not have to go back to a first reading. <br /> <br />Mayor Marty withdrew his second to Councilmember Stigney’s original motion to approve the <br />ordinance. <br /> <br />Councilmember Stigney withdrew his original motion to approve Ordinance 769. <br /> <br />City Attorney Riggs stated that the withdrawals should have occurred at the time of the <br />amendments. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: FLAHERTY/MARTY. To postpone Ordinance 769, an Ordinance <br />Amending Chapter 1008 of the Municipal Code relating to Signs and Billboards, until the May 8, <br />2006, City Council meeting. <br /> <br />Councilmember Stigney asked Councilmember Flaherty what he expects to happen from now <br />until the next Council meeting. Councilmember Flaherty responded that input will be received at <br />the Town Hall Meeting, a rendering will be received, and it will be discussed at the work session. <br />He stated he feels it is warranted at this particular time. <br /> <br />Councilmember Thomas stated that the Council has already discussed this to a significant extent, <br />and that she does not believe there is any further information that can be deemed from the Town <br />Hall Meeting. She stated that she does not see that it actually changes anything. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 3 Nays – 2 (Gunn, Thomas) Motion carried. <br /> <br />Mayor Marty asked Mr. McCarver for the renderings as soon as possible. Mr. McCarver stated <br />he will try to do that although he has not made application, but the drawings could be put on <br />white paper. He suggested the previous renderings could be used. <br /> <br />Director Ericson stated they would be presented at the worksession. <br />
