Discussion was around having an open agenda item at each Planning Commission meeting, where businesses can come and introduce their new development projects. Mayor Uzpen suggested putting together a manual to give to developers to show an outline of what is required. Green City Concept: Chairman Rafferty did some research on this. The American institute of Architecture publishes a document called "The Livability 101 ", referring to what makes a community livable. Example: Residents may want to install a wind generator and Gem Lake has no rules as to the installation. It is going to be a long-range project to take on, so as a starting point, the Commission needs to research more on going green. Woodbury is going through this process now, so will look at what they are doing. Notion of incentives Related to. Development: The City Council and the Planning Commission will be discussing this at upcoming meetings. Trevor Oliver, the City Attorney, has agreed to come to the meetings' and bring examples. Since there is more increased interest in Hoffman corner, there might be more increased interest of incentives for more houses, more density, and more open spaces. The following will be put on the agenda for the September Planning Commission meeting: Development manual, Bill Short from White Bear Township, discussion of the sign ordinance, an open forum for developers, and continue the idea and brainstorming sessions of Green City concept and focus on the notion to prioritize the incentives and what is important to Gem Lake for development. ADJOURN The August 4, 2009 regular meeting of the Planning Commission was adjourned at 8:01 pm. Upon motion by Commissioner Herzog, and seconded by Commissioner Wippich, the meeting was adjourned.
