There was some discussion regarding the permit and building <br />numbers due to the storm event on May 25, 2008. Staff highlighted some of the numbers that <br />may have been affected in response to the event. <br />2009 Goal Setting Session <br />Schumann asked the members of the Planning Commission for their input on goals that they <br />would like to set for 2009. <br />Rosenquist thought that the northern gateway should be of concern to the Commission because <br />he thinks that planning needs to be done before development happens in that area. <br />Schumann commented that they might want to think about a transit station located in the <br />northern part of the city on Hwy 61. <br />Bryan mentioned that there is already a station on Forest Lake's comprehensive plan for a bus <br />stop at the Government Center. Later this year, Washington County will be discussing locations <br />in Hugo for a future transit station. <br />
