ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – OCTOBER 19, 2020 10 <br /> <br />Community Development Manager/City Planner Mrosla said he would develop a policy that <br />the document is issued to Planning Commissioners. <br /> <br />G. Comprehensive Plan Official Controls <br /> <br />Community Development Manager/City Planner Mrosla stated that once the 2040 <br />Comprehensive Plan is approved the City is required by the Metropolitan Council to amend the <br />official controls (i.e. zoning, subdivision, and other ordinances) to bring the City ordinances into <br />conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. Most of the amendments are minimal and examples <br />were given in the memo. He wondered if the Council want to review red-lines or are they <br />comfortable with it going to the Planning Commission for approval. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden would like to see an electronic copy for informal review. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes felt all Councilmembers should see the document updates. <br /> <br />Community Development Manager/City Planner Mrosla said he could move forward with <br />simple changes in numbers but could come to Council with more detailed sections. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant asked for an electronic copy be given to all Councilmembers. <br /> <br />Community Development Manager/City Planner Mrosla said he could bring it back to the <br />December work session for further discussion. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant said staff could provide the document to Council, Council would provide feedback <br />to staff, it could go on the December work session for discussion and the January Planning <br />Commission meeting. <br /> <br />H. Tony Schmidt Park Sidewalk Letter Discussion <br /> <br />City Administrator Perrault asked if Council wanted to move forward with drafting a letter to <br />the County Commissioner regarding the sidewalk and crosswalk conditions at Tony Schmidt Park. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden said residents sent a letter to the County Commissioner. Other county <br />parks have sidewalks and safe access to walk to the park and she felt Tony Schmidt Park should <br />be the same. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant asked if the letter should come from the Mayor or from all Council. <br /> <br />Council agreed that they would all like to sign the letter. <br /> <br />Councilmember Scott thought the Sheriff’s office could send a letter of support. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant said a letter could be drafted by the City Administrator, shared with Council for <br />input and redrafted. <br /> <br /> <br />
