Ferris stated that businesses along Hwy. 10 were against the relocation. She stated MnDOT only has 3 proposals and E.I.S. favors relocation. Hedlund suggested Council ask MnDOT for a 6 -month moratorium in order to inform citizens. Ziebarth made the motion, seconded by McCarty to direct Staff to draw up a resolution requesting MnDOT for a 6 -month moratorium to provide time for informational meetings with them for the citizens of Mounds View. 5 ayes 0 nays Ziebarth: 1) Made a public apology to the Planning Commission for coming Aug. 9 for an Aug. 8 meeting. 2) Asked about the possibility of another postal outlet. 3) Gave belated thanks for the Festivities Committee to the Park & Rec. Dept., Maintenance personnel, Staff, newsletter, and the community. Forslund: 1) Pointed out some citizens were not aware a permit is required to use the City park, and its sometimes not left clean. Suggested an article in the newsletter could remind citizens.
