Neighborhood meetings allow the applicant to get feedback <br />from those directly impacted by the project and to reduce concerns and <br />issues. Neighborhood meetings were previously recommended but not <br />required as part of the development approval process. <br />The Council also expanded the notification distance for Planning <br />Commission and City Council meetings. Minnesota State Statutes <br />requires cities to notify all property owners within a minimum of 350 <br />feet of a subject property when a public hearing is to occur related to <br />a land use or zoning application. The approved policy expands the <br />mailing distance to all property owners within 500 feet of the subject <br />property for all land use requests that do not require a public hearing <br />and to 1,000 feet for land use requests that do require a public hearing. <br />The intent of this change in policy is to encourage involvement of <br />residents in the planning process.
