Regular City Council Meeting Monday,June 19, 2017 Page 20 Mayor Roe suggested, with concurrence from Ms. Collins, that the work session move property by property while at the same time determining how numbers shifted based on changing land use designations. Councilmember McGehee stated two properties she would change from HDR designation would be on the south side of County Road C; and two at Old High- way 8 directly across from the tank farm; and provided her rationale for each. Mayor Roe agreed with the properties on County Road C to address major con- flicts with single-family properties directly behind those currently designated as Industrial in addition to other challenges (e. g rail road tracks). Councilmember Laliberte sought clarification on when the Metropolitan Council would start the clock for the 142 affordable units specifically those parcels that may be pending or in process; or whether there was a certain date to meet those requirements. Ms. Collins responded that the future land use map indicated any pending pro- jects, as well as identifying parcels that were vacant or were a redevelopment site, with Metropolitan Council calculations performed accordingly. When the city submits its comprehensive plan to the Metropolitan Council for their review and ultimate approval, Ms. Collins advised that they would then look at the map and run calculations as to whether land use met their requirements or not. Since individual council members had identified properties to down guide and/or rezone, Ms. Collins asked each to provide their input to staff prior to the work session discussion to allow staff to identify those areas for discussion and focus on impacts and related considerations in changing HDR designations. City Manager Trudgeon advised that this item would return on the July 17th work session agenda. d. Consideration of a Community Development Department Request to Per- form an Abatement for Unresolved Violations of City Code at 949 Brooks Avenue W Codes Coordinator Dave Englund summarized this request and provided updated photos of the code violations as of today for this single-family with the owner of record listed as Dale Loth. Mr. Englund reviewed current violations including a vehicle constituting a public nuisance (vehicle without current registration (407.04.D). Mr. Englund advised that abatement would encompass removal of the vehicle at an estimated administrative cost of$125.00. Mayor Roe called for comment from the owner and/or from the public specific to this request, with no one appearing for or against.
