<br />Planning Commission Workshop <br />April 11, 2000 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />In general, the Commission was pleased with the changes submitted by the <br />applicant. <br /> <br />2. Zonina Standards <br /> <br />The Commission reviewed the draft outline for the reorganization of the zoning <br />district standards. No changes were proposed by the Commission. <br /> <br />The Commission did, however, discuss building standards and expressed an <br />interest in reviewing other cities' requirements including Minnetonka, Stillwater <br />and Maple Grove. This item will be added to a future workshop agenda for <br />further discussion by the Commission. The Commission also requested that they <br />review street light standards and also wanted to work on standards for townhouse <br />development. <br /> <br />3. Evaluate Consolidation of Sin ale Familv Zonina Districts <br /> <br />The Commission discussed the various single family zoning districts and the merits <br />of combining several into one district. The Commission agreed in concept that <br />districts A 1, R 1 a and R 1 b would be maintained. They also expressed an interest in <br />maintaining R 1 d, which would perhaps help preserve areas with significant stands <br />of trees or water bodies requiring protection. It appeared that R 1 c and R 1 e <br />districts would be combined into one. <br /> <br />4. Other Business <br /> <br />The Commission agreed to review the League of Minnesota Cities training video <br />at their June workshop prior to visiting other cities cluster developments. <br /> <br />5. Adiournment <br /> <br />Having no further business, the meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />U~U~ <br /> <br />Mi~h(ele McPherson <br />Director of Planning <br />
