<br />Planning Commission Minutes <br />April 10, 1996 <br /> <br />Nayes: None <br /> <br />8(a) Liveable Communities Action Plan (verbal report). <br /> <br />Community Development Director, Dennis Welsch provided a background report <br />regarding Liveable Communities Action Plan. He provided a list of 16 housing items <br />that could be included in the Action Plan, four items which could be included in the Tax <br />Base Revitalization Program, and 12 items which could be included in the Liveable <br />Communities Demonstration Project. <br /> <br />Chairperson Wietecki stated that we must do some of these items. They are consistent <br />with the Comprehensive Plan. For example, the Lexington and County Road C Civic <br />Center area, the Rice Street Corridor, and the 36 Corridor are all mentioned in the <br />Comprehensive Plan. The community also needs to show that a great rambler expansion <br />can be completed in Roseville at a moderate cost and can compete with the outer suburbs. <br /> <br />Member Rhody explained that there are other examples of rambler conversions in the <br />community on Matilda, County Road B-2 and Dale Street, Roselawn near Mid Oaks <br />Drive. He felt it was necessary to do these demonstration projects to take away the fear <br />and provide additional dollars for reinvestment in the community. It may be necessary to <br />provide catalogues and videos of what is available in the community and use the schools <br />to assist in the education and promotion programs. The Commission was asked to review <br />the list of liveable community actions and submit comments to the Community <br />Development staff as soon as possible. <br /> <br />No action was necessary. <br /> <br />8(b) Application Reviews. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission received a report from the Community Development staff <br />which reviewed the 60-day requirement for review of projects. In the future, the staff will <br />provide a checklist at the front of each planning report which illustrates the number of <br />days already expired in the 60-day review process, as well as the estimated date of <br />decision by the City Council. <br /> <br />No action was necessary. <br /> <br />8(c) House Tour. <br /> <br />Assistant Community Development Director, Rick Jopke, provided a background review <br />of the house tour requested by the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission <br />consensus was to set the house tour for Saturday, May 4, 1996 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 <br />p.m. or similar hours. <br /> <br />9. Adjournment: <br /> <br />10 <br />
