Motion by Councilman Sundland and seconded by Councilman Sauer to approve the minutes for the Council meeting held July 12th as corrected. Motion carried unanimously. Wil Johnson appeared to report on recommendations made to the Council by the Planning Board during their June 19, 1977 meeting. He reported the Board had been unanimous in recommending approval of the proposed Cassidy Products building to be built in the St. Anthony Office Park. Harry Schroeder, project architect, discussed the 34 parking spaces which the proposal provides and reiterated his contention that the City's requirement of the number of parking spaces required for industrial, warehousing and office buildings "might be ambivalent in terms of reality" . He felt a revision of the zoning ordinance to more specifically determine the parking requirements by type of business would give the City the con- trol it needs. The Mayor reminded him that the City's control lay in the fact that it is the responsibility of the developer to see that each project has enough parking spaces provided so that no on street parking will be necessary. Mr. Schroeder said future parking space had been pro- vided for in front of the Cassidy building but it was felt it would be preferable not to use the space for that purpose unless a change in tenants for the building should warrant it.
