Approve Findings of Fact for Denial of CUP for Benjamin Carter at 6128 Goodview Trail Circle At the Tuesday, September 8, 2009 Council meeting, the motion failed to approve the CUP for 25% more square footage for an accessory building for Benjamin Carter.

Both have resigned due to recently moving out of the City of Hugo. After interviews, Council agreed to approve Rick Gwynn and Scott Arcand as the new Planning Commissioners. Adoption of the Consent Agenda approved the appointment of Rick Gwynn and Scott Arcand as new Commissioners to the Hugo Planning Commission. Approve Authorization to Advertise for Sale of 1999 Ford Ambulance In 2003, the Hugo Fire Department purchased a used ambulance from the City of Mahtomedi. At that time, the department was in need of a second rescue vehicle. In January 2006, the department entered into an agreement with the White Bear Lake Fire Department for in-house ambulance service, which included the housing of White Bear Lake / Hugo Ambulance 4 at the Hugo Fire Station. The Mahtomedi used ambulance is in need of over $4,000 in repairs including a valve job, brakes, rotors and other miscellaneous repairs. At this time, with the department having both the heavy rescue and ambulance at its disposal, the expenditure to fix the Mahtomedi ambulance would not be fiscally responsible. Adoption of the Consent Agenda approved the Fire Department's request to place the vehicle up for bid and use the funds towards the purchase of a Deputy Chiefs response vehicle.
