ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL —JANUARY 8, 2024 17 Councilmember Fabel explained he read the motion straight from Community Development Director Jagoe's recommendation within the staff report. Mayor Grant asked if staff could clarify what the motion was. Community Development Director Jagoe reported the recommended motion from staff includes reference to the adoption of a Resolution, which is the Comprehensive Plan language. She stated she was confirming if the Council was approving the language as presented, or as amended, noting suggested language that 20% of the units would be at 60% AMI or less. City Administrator Perrault explained the motion could be withdrawn and restated. Councilmember Fabel asked if he should withdraw his motion. Mayor Grant asked if the Council needed to make a motion to reconsider. Councilmember Fabel said he was not moving to reconsider the calling to question, he was moving to seek approval of the two resolutions and he was willing to restate that. He noted he was not moving to reconsider. City Attorney Schmidt clarified that a motion to reconsider was not in order because this would have the Council reconsidering the motion that was previously on the floor, which was to call the question. Mayor Grant requested staff call the question. The motion carried 3-2 (Councilmember Holden and Mayor Grant opposed). Mayor Grant reported the prevailing side could now make a motion to reconsider the approval if an amendment was needed. MOTION: Councilmember Monson moved and Councilmember Rousseau seconded a motion to reconsider the adoption of Resolution 2024-006 for Planning Case 23-021 for Comprehensive Plan Amendments to Chapter 6 and Appendix G to allow for an increase in residential density up to 1,960 units within the regulating plan for TCAAP. City Attorney Schmidt clarified if the motion to reconsider was for both items, the Council would have to reconsider both and both items would have to be voted on again. She suggested Councilmember Monson withdraw her motion. Councilmember Monson withdrew her motion. Councilmember Rousseau withdrew her second.
