ATTACHMENT F Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes – Wednesday, November 2, 2022 Page 11 Chair Kimble thought there were some on there that still needed Conditional Uses. Member McGehee agreed and explained she did not want to get rid of the institutional uses and the City has a lot of them. Having a Conditional Use is not onerous for someone to come forward with. Ms. Gundlach thought there was some misunderstanding. Staff is not talking about getting rid of the Institutional District, that needs to be retained. What staff is seeking clarification on is Maintenance Facility is currently listed as a Conditional Use but is not defined. She noted Mr. Paschke is in a position where he has to review what happens on a Civic Campus and he has to review what Ramsey County wants to do in an Environmental Service Center, not all of those things fit under Maintenance Facility and not all those things fit under Government Office. The City needs to better define those terms. When they better define those terms, what is to be permitted and what is not ok to be permitted and needs a Conditional Use so that staff can go back and create better definitions to plug into this land use table. Mr. Paschke noted staff would come back to the Commission with definitions of what those items are, whether it is public use as is indicated in the report, there is a definition within that of what that would cover. If it is something else that the Commission wants staff to define and the Commission wants it placed in the Use Table staff would have to search out and try to find a definition of whatever that might be and draft it and come back to the Commission to review if it made sense, then it is a matter of amending the table and the definition section for that specifically and then putting a “c” by it as having it be Conditional. Member Pribyl thought that things that are coming to mind to her are things like the athletic field with lights and things that would be potential light and noise and traffic generators and maybe Maintenance Facility for similar reasons, depending on the size of it. Ms. Gundlach thought the Commission would want to retain a Conditional Use option for uses that are deemed heavierin terms of impacts for lighting, noise,or traffic or maybe stuff that is stored outside. Member Bjorum thought it should include anything that impacts property around it. Ms. Gundlach thought fundamentally staff understands the Commission wants to retain the Conditional Use option and do not want to create an all-encompassing Government Use and it make it permitted. She indicated staff will go back and reevaluated how those terms are defined and come back to the Commission. b.Discuss Phase Two Zoning Code AmendmentsDiscuss Phase Two Zoning Code Amendments Community Development Director Gundlach reviewed the Phase Two Zoning Code Amendments with the Commission.
