City Council Staff Report 7/14/2025—Public Hearing Process in Mounds View Code Page 3 Planned Unit Development general concept plan. Current: Section 160.318 requires a public hearing in front of the City Council before approval of a planned unit development (PUD) general concept plan. Proposed: This would be changed to the Planning Commission. Conditional Use Permits. Current: Section 160.450 requires the City Council to hold public hearings on conditional use permits (CUP). Proposed: This would be changed to the Planning Commission. CRP District development plans. Current: The CRP District (Conservancy, Recreation, and Preservation) permits recreational uses on land that is otherwise difficult to develop for other more typical uses. Section 160.251 says that sch plans for development will be forwarded to both the Planning Commission and the Parks and Recreation Commission, and that the City Council "may require public hearings" before action is taken. The ordinance does not specify where a hearing is to take place. Proposed: This would be changed to the Planning Commission. Interim Use Permits. Current: Section 160.057 Interim Uses references State statute on interim uses, but does not specify a process or public hearing requirement. It is assumed that the review of interim use permits will follow the process for conditional use permits, but this needs to be clarified in the city code. Proposed: The suggested amendment to Section 160.450 would accomplish this. Amendments to the Zoning Code. Current: Section 160.450 (same as above) also requires the City Council to hold public hearings on amendments to the Zoning Code. Proposed: This would be changed to the Planning Commission.
