The Mayor thanked .the Committee for its service and recessed the meeting at 9: 30 P.M. When the .meeting resumed at 9 : 40 P.M. , the Council accepted the minutes for the June 8th meeting of the City'.s Advisory Committee to the Health Board., _ concurring: with the Mayor., that. a thorough job was being done. The Mayor also expressed the -Council ' s gratitude for the work by the Planning Commission on the .Comprehensive Plan which was accepted by the Commission at their June 3rd meeting as reported' by William Bowerman. The Planning Commission representative then gave his account of actions taken and recommendations to the Council which were made during the Commission' s regular meeting held June 17th, . as reflected in the minutes of the meeting. Although the Commission had recommended approval of the .vacation of. the southerly portion of Sunset Lane described as on Lot 20 , Block 12 , Moundsview Acres Second Addition, petitioned by Bernard Blanske, they had decided to continue the hearing on the variances necessary for the mini storage project until their July 15th meeting because of uncertainties as to whether all property owners within. 200 feet of the site had been properly_ notified of the first hearing. Mr. Berg confirmed that in hi.s. conversation ,.with the City Attorney it was established that since they each own a portion of the common area. of Mirror Lake Manor which lies within 200. feet of . the Blanske site, all 148 property owners of condominiums at Mirror Lake as well as the Townhomes of St. Anthony, who have a- similar common area ownership, should be notified of the continuation of- the hearing since a portion of their common area is within the 200 feet. Councilman Marks raised the question. of whether a :substandard ,road might result from the vacation of a portion of Sunset Lane, but- he was told a 33 foot roadway will be constructed by Mr,. Blanske, to meet City specifications, which will replace the existing gravel throughway used primarily by the City for servicing- Mirror- Lake. The 'survey provided by Mr. Blanske, of the roadway, indicates there will be no -utility lines in the vacated portion. The Council will act on the vacation recommendation when they receive the Commission' s recommendations on the variances in July. Mr. Fornell. said American Monarch. is hauling in dirt, for its land- scaping and staff is looking at the ,site plans for the bank' s park- ing lot across Lowry Avenue N.E. to ascertain whetherthey have complied with the landscaping agreed to when the variance .was approved. Questions about both. had been raised by the Commission and reported by Mr. Bowerman who concluded his report by relaying the Commission' s • request that they be allowed to consider any new signage proposals for the Country Store.
