-5- When the Chair asked what would happen to all the licenses granted to • Chick' s if it is true that the business is moving out of the St. Anthony Village Shopping Center, the Manager told her those licenses are non-refundable and non-transferable and any change would have .to be made in March: , He also told her it must have been an oversight that the Planning Commission had not been notified of the H.R.A. meeting - which had been held May 10th, but there should be no problem with the next meeting because Mr. Wagner would be representing the Commission - at the Council meeting the same night and could remain for the H.R.A. meeting as well. The Manager also indicated he believed the Council agenda could be. adjusted so there .would not be such a long wait before the Commission. minutes are considered.

Commissioner Franzese also noted Eagan has set up minimal square footage for housing. Referring back to the new record keeping system for variances and con- ditional use permits , Commissioner Jones said he hopes the costs of setting up the system . and processing variances , including staff time , would be figured into the application fees and not absorbed by the taxpayers . Commission members had been given copies of the new ordinances and the Chair pointed several errors and omissions she had noticed which the Manager indicated would be changed.

Childs told her COACT had been authorized to solicit by a letter from the State Attorney' s office, which takes precedence over the City regulations , but he doubted whether the others had received permission to make door to door sales . He advised the Commissioners to call the police if there is any doubt about persons who come to their doors . Motion by Commissioner Jones and seconded by Commissioner Franzese to adjourn the meeting at 9 : 10 P .M. "Motion carried unanimously . Respectfully submitted, Helen Crowe , Secretary
