MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 28, 2008
TO: Mayor & City Council
FROM: James Lehnhoff, City Planner
SUBJECT: B-2 Small Area Plan
Steering Committee
Requested Action
MOlion to Appoint Members to lhe Steering Commiltee for the B-2 General Business District Small
Area Plan for an Eight Month Term.
Backl!round
The RFP for the B-2 Small Area Plan included provisions for creating a steering commiltee to help
guide the planning process. The sleering committee would review drafts of the plan, altend public
meetings, reach out to slakeholders, and provide feedback throughout the planning process, Allhe
January 22, 2008, City Council work session, the Council came to a consensus that the commiltee
should be created and suggested that it include two property owners from the B-2 distriCl, one nearby
resident, another residenl from elsewhere in lhe City, and one councilmember.
Upon consultation with the City's planning consultanl, Bill Weber ofMFRA recommended
increasing the size of the commiltee to ten 10 fifteen people. Having a larger commiltee will help
compensate for when some members may not be able to altend. Having enough people at each
meeting is imperalive because the schedule is very light.
Section 220 Subd. 4 of the City Code includes provisions for the creation of temporary advisory
committees. The members of the commiltee are nominated by the Mayor and voted on by lhe full
Council.
