ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — August 9, 2023 Attachment F <br />Community Development Director Jagoe commented on how the ordinance language could be <br />amended to allow for temporary fencing to be in place for grading projects and major <br />construction sites. She reported the last sentence in the third bullet point could read: silt and or <br />construction fencing associated with a permit issued by the City is exempt from a zoning permit <br />as a temporary fence. <br />Chair Vijums supported this language change. <br />Chair Vijums opened the public hearing at 6:57 p.m. <br />Chair Vijums invited anyone for or against the application to come forward and make comment. <br />There being no comments Chair Vijums closed the public hearing at 6:57 p.m. <br />Commissioner Weber moved and Commissioner Biorklund seconded a motion to <br />recommend approval with amendments of Planning Case 23-013 for Zoning Code <br />Amendments to Chapter 13 in Section 1325.05- Subd. 4.1) of the Arden Hills City Code to <br />add language in the city code establishing criteria for a temporary and permanent fence in <br />all zoning districts as well as set a maximum height for fences in the Business and <br />Industrial Zoning Districts as presented in the August 9, 2023 Report to the Planning <br />Commission with draft ordinance language changes to allow temporary fencing to be in <br />place for 150 days and for the last sentence of the third bullet point to read: silt and or <br />construction fencing associated with a permit issued by the City is exempt from a zoning <br />permit as a temporary fence. The motion carried unanimously (6-0). <br />B. Planning Case 23-014; Zoning Code Amendment to Chapter 13, Section 1325.02, <br />Accessory Uses — Lower -Potency Hemp Edible Sales — Public Hearing <br />Community Development Director Jagoe stated on July 1, 2022, the Minnesota Legislature <br />adopted an amendment that permits the sale of edible cannabinoid products that contain no more <br />than 0.3% of tetrahydrocannabinol (a derivative of hemp). The amendment was enacted with <br />very few regulations in place. Several cities adopted a moratorium in order to allow adequate <br />time to study the matter. On August 22, 2022, the City of Arden Hills adopted Interim Ordinance <br />2022-006 establishing a one-year moratorium prohibiting the sale, testing, manufacturing, and <br />distribution of products containing tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). It is important to note this <br />moratorium does not apply to products containing THC related to the Medical Cannabis Program <br />as administered by the Minnesota Department of Health, provided the activity is conducted in <br />accordance with state law regarding medical cannabis. Interim Ordinance 2022-006 will expire <br />on August 22, 2023. <br />Community Development Director Jagoe reported as of May 31, 2023, there has also been a <br />recent state law change relating to adult use marijuana/cannabis. This state law includes language <br />for cities to have the authority to impose a moratorium on the sale of full-strength products until <br />January 1, 2025 in order to allow further review and future discussions as the new law continues <br />to be interpreted. The Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) is still taking shape and they will <br />license retailers. Cities will be required to register local adult cannabis retailers and conduct <br />compliance checks. Eventually, the OCM will have sample language and forms to provide to <br />cities. The City Council directed city staff at their work session on July 17, 2023, to work with <br />
