The 2000 Long Term Financial Plan was presented in August 2000 and was available for public inspection in the Office of the City Administrator. SECTION II. The 2000 Long Term Financial Plan is hereby adopted. SECTION III. This ordinance shall take effect thirty days after the date of its publication. Introduced and read by the City Council of the City of Mounds View on December 11, 2000. Read and passed by the City Council of the City of Mounds View this th day of December, 200. ATTEST: MAYOR (SEAL) CITY ADMINISTRATOR APPROVED AS TO FORM: CITY ATTORNEY Item No: 10C Meeting Date: January 8, 2001 Type of Business: CB WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor & City Council From: James Ericson, Planner Item Title/Subject: First Reading and Introduction of Ordinance 672, an Ordinance Amending Chapter 1106 of the Mounds View Zoning Code Pertaining to Home Occupations Date of Report: January 4, 2001 Background: This ordinance has been drafted to update Section 1106.03 of the Mounds View Zoning Code pertaining to Home Based Businesses. As the Council is aware, the Planning Commission had reviewed this ordinance in October of last year and forwarded its recommendation of approval to the Council for its action on November 13, 2000. At that meeting, the Council heard testimony from the residents and home- based business owners requesting that the Code be changed to allow non-resident employees. Because the Planning Commission had not addressed that issue, the Council returned the ordinance to the Planning Commission for further review. At their meeting on December 6, 2000, the Planning Commission reconsidered the ordinance and took considerable testimony from the public, reviewed a summary of e- mailed responses on the topic and came to a majority consensus as to how the ordinance should be drafted in light of the new information. On December 20, 2000, the Commission adopted Resolution 643-00 which recommended City Council approval of the revised ordinance. Discussion: As to the issue of allowing employees, a majority of the Planning Commission concluded that it saw no reason to change the ordinance to allow employees, citing concerns from residents and the potential for changing the essential nature of a neighborhood. A majority of the e-mailed responses and those who spoke out at the last meeting also had concerns regarding on-street parking associated with a home occupation. Based on that, the Commission chose to modify its original version concerning parking to disallow on-street parking altogether yet retained the change that dropped the limitation on the number of vehicles that could be parked off-street, so long as the vehicles were parked in compliance with the City’s nuisance codes. Otherwise, the Planning Commission agreed to keep the ordinance as it had originally recommended for approval. Ordinance 672 Report Page 2 Changes: There are minor housekeeping changes to the ordinance and two changes of substance. The first change of substance relates to allowable signage. The Code currently allows for one-square foot of signage, which was felt to be too restrictive. This was recommended to be increased to four square feet, placement of which could occur either on the house, garage, or within five feet of a street right of way. The other change contemplated by this ordinance is that the limitation of no more than two cars for either on or off street parking has been changed to eliminate on-street parking altogether, yet removing the limitation of two vehicles for off-street parking. Recommendation: The Planning Commission and staff recommend approval of the first reading. If there are minor changes that arise from discussions at the meeting, these can be made prior to the scheduled second reading and public hearing on January 22, 2001. _____________________________________ James Ericson, Community Development Dir.

Long, City Attorney Item No: 10D Meeting Date: January 8, 2001 Type of Business: CB WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor & City Council From: Jeremiah Anderson, Housing/Code Enforcement Inspector Item Title/Subject: Consideration of First Reading and Introduction of ordinance 674, an ordinance amending Chapter 1005, Housing, of the Mounds View Municipal Code. Date of Report: January 4, 2001 Background: At the December 4, 2000 City Council work session meeting, Council approved the proposed revisions to Chapter 1005, Housing Code, of the Mounds View municipal code and directed staff to draft an ordinance based on the proposed revisions. Ordinance 674 has been drafted and amends several areas of the existing Housing Code and will provide the City’s residents with a Housing Code that is clear and understandable, as well as easily administrated by the City of Mounds View. Ordinance 674 accomplishes this by using a two-tier approach: 1.) Ordinance 674 builds and strengthens the existing Housing code by providing language that is more specific and direct. 2.) Ordinance 674 clarifies the enforcement provisions of the Housing Code by establishing an Enforcement Officer. Discussion: The majority of proposed ordinance 674 addresses clarification items regarding the enforcement of the Housing Code. This is accomplished by establishing an Enforcement Officer, who is the primary party responsible for the enforcement of the Housing Code. Other proposed amendments to the Housing Code that are addressed by Ordinance 674 include language that is more specific and direct in nature, which would be accomplished by building and strengthening the current language in areas of the Housing Code that are vague and unclear. This in turn, would help eliminate potential “loop holes” and other “gray areas” in the Housing Code. Ordinance 674 does not add new material to the existing Housing Code; it amends the existing Housing Code to provide clarification on the enforcement of the Housing Code and clarifies areas of the Housing Code that are vague and unclear. Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the first reading. If there are any minor changes that may arise from discussions at the meeting, these can be made prior to the scheduled second reading and public hearing on January 22, 2001.
