• WHEREAS, the Mounds View City Council held aduly-noticed public hearing on

WHEREAS, the Mounds View City Code requires that any billboard Interim Use
Permit (IUP) application be reviewed and considered in accordance with Section 1125.01,
Subdivision 3; and,
WHEREAS, the Mounds View Planning Commission considered this request on July
5, 2005 and adopted Resolution 847-06 recommending approval of the Interim Use Permit
request for a billboard at 5201 Program Avenue.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View City Council makes
the following findings of fact relating to the Clear Channel Outdoor application for an
Interim Use Permit (IUP) for a billboard at 5201 Program Avenue:
1. The Installation of a billboard at 5201 Program Avenue would not create an
excessive burden on existing parks, schools, streets and other public facilities
and utilities that serve or are proposed to serve the area.
2. The billboard at the proposed location would not be readily visible from nearby
residentially zoned properties and would not have a detrimental effect on the
development of vacant land in the area.
• 3. The structure and site will not have an appearance that would adversely effect
adjacent residential properties in that there are no residential properties adjacent
to Building A.

• 4. The requested IUP is reasonably related to the requirement placed upon the
Applicant to relocate four of six billboards from the former golf course property.
5. The use is consistent with the recently adopted amendments to the Sign Code
Chapter 1008 as effectuated by Ordinance 769.
6. The proposed billboard would not be in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan of
the City in that the Comprehensive Plan does not address billboards.
7. The proposed billboard would not cause traffic hazards or congestion.
8. Adequate utilities, access, drainage and other necessary facilities are available to
the proposed billboard.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the Mounds View City Council,
based upon its review of the identified finding of fact, testimony provided at the public
hearing, potential adverse impacts of the proposed billboard and recommendation of the
Mounds View Planning Commission, does hereby approve the Interim Use Permit Request
for a billboard at 5201 Program Avenue in accordance with the property survey and
rendering attached as Exhibits A and B respectively, subject to the following conditions:
1. The Applicant shall have completed the construction of the billboard by July 4,
2007 or the Interim Use Permit shall be considered null and void, unless a petition
for extension of time in which to complete the work has been granted by the Planning
Commission. Such extension shall be requested in writing and filed with the City
Clerk-Administrator at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of the original
variance or appeal.
2. The Interim Use Permit shall automatically expire on December 31, 2036 or date
of abandonment, whichever occurs first. Consistent with Section 1008.02,
Abandonment shall be deemed to have occurred after one month of non-use by
billboard owner.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, the City of Mounds View hereby
consents to the siting of the requested billboard within the City's drainage and utility
easement for as long as the IUP is in force and so long as said billboard does not interfere
with the City's present or future use of the easement area
