Planning Commission Meeting Minutes – Wednesday, June 03, 2009 Page 3 Ms. Radel noted that the Cities of Richfield and Burnsville (Heart of the City Redevelopment) had worked toward district design guidelines. Ms. Radel noted the history of Roseville’s innovation and leadership for other communities. Chair Doherty asked staff to provide the codes from the Cities of Richfield and Burnsville to Commissioners for their review and to provide additional perspective; and asked that this Commissioner Boerigter noted the need for continued community interaction and process in developing form-based and/or traditional zoning codes. Commissioner Gottfried arrived at this time. Commissioner Wozniak opined that, given the flexibility of hybrid and form-based codes, there would seem to be a tendency to end up with design by committee. Ms. Radel opined that it would probably be less so than the current PUD process; since parameters for building design and standards would be provided (i.e., neighborhood nodes) to direct developers, rather than prescriptive minimums to meet. Chair Doherty thanked Dr. Schively-Slotterback for her informative presentation and discussion. Councilmembers Johnson, Pust and Roe left the meeting at approximately 6:35 p.m., immediately following this presentation. 4.
