Kuykendall <br />Home Address* <br />2500 30th Ave NE <br />Zip Code* <br />55418 <br />Phone Number* <br />612-961-6647 <br />Email Address* <br />tjkuykendall@msn.com <br />Please select which commission you are applying for.* <br />In order for the Mayor and Council members to have a better understanding of your background and interests, <br />please provide the following information. <br />Why do you want to serve on a St. Anthony Village Commission?* <br />I’ve enjoyed my first term on the planning commission and have learned so much about the land use and governance in our <br />community on a variety of private applications: Comprehensive Land Use Amendment for Urban Grove property; Plat for <br />Bremer/City/Interstate Project; Chase Bank PUD Permit, and sign and fence amendment and variances, as well over a dozen <br />city-initiated amendments to existing/new Ordinance. This has come through listening to and observing my more experienced <br />colleagues on the planning commission, talking through real life scenarios, as well as studying the pre-work and current <br />documents. <br />There’s much to be done going forward and I’m prepared to continue to learn more and execute the duties of the role: The <br />Comprehensive Plan implementation over the next 5-10 years and will likely include zoning ordinance amendments <br />(commercial and industrial use); Review of recent City zoning decisions and ordinance issues/gaps; and Monitoring and <br />processing development applications. <br />In addition to the three potential items above several potential applications may come before the planning commission that I’m <br />looking forward to being a part of the planning and decision making process as a long-time resident of St. Anthony: <br />Development of 2410 Lowry site, City owned gas station site, potential development opportunity of St. Anthony Shopping <br />Center, Ongoing code updates, Hemp and Marijuana considerations, as well as several topics related to transportation <br />including scooter/bike rental. <br />I’m appreciative of the opportunity to serve my community as a Planning Commissioner thus far. Thank you for your <br />consideration of my application for a second term on the St. Anthony Village Planning Commission. <br />Commission Application - Submission #5932 <br />Date Submitted: 9/15/2023 <br />Planning <br />mm/dd/yyyy
