ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL—JUNE 28, 2021 7 MOTION: Councilmember McClung moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a motion to approve Planning Case 21-014 for a Master Planned Unit Development at 1150 County Road E, based on the findings of fact and submitted plans, and the fifteen (15) conditions in the June 28, 2021, Report to the City Council. AMENDMENT: Councilmember Holmes moved and Councilmember McClung seconded a motion to add Condition 16 to read: Lighting including the lighting of the sign be in conformity with the other businesses within Arden Plaza. Councilmember Holden stated she would not support this amendment because she did not understand what the lighting hours were for the adjacent businesses. Councilmember Holmes indicated she would be willing to accept a friendly amendment regarding the timing of the lighting for this business. She suggested the lighting be on until 10:00 p.m. Councilmember Scott commented he was inclined to not support this amendment because it was too vague. He reported outdoor lighting was a safety issue and he did not believe there was a need to restrict the outdoor lighting for this business. Councilmember Holden asked how late the Tavern Grill was open. She suggested that the outdoor lighting for the new business match the Tavern Grill. Councilmember Holmes stated she supported this recommendation. City Administrator Perrault reported the Tavern Grill was open Monday through Thursday till 9:00 p.m. and on the weekends till 10:00 p.m. He explained Walgreens was open until 10:00 p.m. seven days a week. Councilmember Holden stated she anticipated the hours of operation for the Tavern Grill would push back to midnight as this was the hours of operation pre-COVID. She indicated she would like to make a friendly amendment to Councilmember Holmes amendment or have the Council vote this amendment down in order to make a reword Condition 16. Councilmember Holmes withdrew her amendment. Councilmember McClung withdrew his second to the amendment. AMENDMENT: Councilmember Holden moved and Mayor Grant seconded a motion to add Condition 16 to read: The lighting on the north side of the building will mirror the Tavern Grill shut down timing. Councilmember Holmes stated it may be beneficial for the applicant to have a specific time. Councilmember Holden agreed and withdrew her amendment.
