• <br />MINUTES <br />PLANNING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING <br />JANUARY 13, 1986 <br />Stefanson, Olson, Trent-Sullivan, Finegan, Wallin, Grittner. Also present <br />was Council Liaison Hard. <br />Northrup, Mead and Black. <br />Finegan moved, seconded by Trent-Sullivan that the December 2, 1986 <br />Minutes be approved as presented. Motion carried unanimously. <br />The City Council advised the Planning Commission of the appointment <br />of the new Building Inspector, Richard Larson. The Planning Commission <br />was advised that the City had adopted the Uniform Building Code in its en- <br />tirety and to alter the adoption, an amendment would have to be approved. <br />The reason for the request is the enormous fees paid for plan checks <br />and the like. Under the new system, the Building Inspector will <br />receive one-fourth of the plan check fee (instead of 100 percent), the <br />Fire Department will receive their hourly pay plus any remainder of <br />that fourth will go into a capital improvement fund and the rest will <br />be designated into the general fund. Mr. Larson has received a good <br />recommendation from the Falcon Heights Fire Department and also from the <br />• City of Lauderdale, who he is also currently working for. Grittner <br />pointed out that the amendment as written contained many errors in <br />wording and had words missing and needed to be rewritten. <br />Wallin moved that the Planning Commission concurs with the suggestion <br />that the precise language be proofread very closely so that it contain <br />correct information (also Subdivision 3 on the bottom of page 3 is <br />not needed). Olson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />Three members of the present Planning Commission--Chairman Stefanson, <br />Erma Olson and Jerry Wallin have served two three year terms and are <br />unable to be reappointed. Stefanson reviewed the items that took place <br />during their tenure--Comprehensive Plan, rewriting of the Zoning <br />Ordinance, American Shelter and the Good Value project. He personally <br />found the Chairmanship to be very interesting and beneficial and <br />thanked all the Commission members for their expertise and cooperation <br />during those years as well as their community concern. <br />Finegan nominated Gritter as Chairman. Trent-Sullivan seconded the <br />motion. Grittner declined the nomination due to the fact that he did <br />not have the time to devote to the Chairmanship. Grittner then <br />moved, seconded by Wallin, to nominate Don Mead as temporary Chairman. <br />Motion carried unanimously. Trent-Sullivan and .Grittner advised they <br />appreciated working with Stefanson, Olson and Wallin not only for <br />their expertise but for keeping always the best interests of Falcon <br />Heights at heart. <br />Next meeting is February 3, 1986. <br />Finegan moved, seconded by Wallin, that the meeting be adjourned at 8:15 P.M. <br />J ry W lin, Secretary <br />
