b. SuperValu Landscape Plan - <br />Mr. Marohn explained that SuperValu would like to remove the shrubs and trees along <br />the south side of the building and place sidewalk in that location. The trees break up the <br />structure size and they should provide architectural drawings how they plan to enhance <br />that wall, such as a stripe or mural. <br />The Planning Commission agreed to allow the trees and shrubs to be moved to the <br />southwest area and replace with sidewalk, keep the shrubs on the peninsula and have <br />Staff approve the wall enhancement. <br />OLD BUSINESS: <br />a. Ethics Policy — <br />The Planning Commission understands where this conversation came from; they can be <br />neutral and they should be open to people coming to them. They don't need a written <br />policy and should use common sense. Not everyone is comfortable coming to a meeting. <br />Rather than having a policy, an annual rules and responsibilities discussion could be held <br />to understand what to do as an appointed official. One will be held at an upcoming <br />meeting. <br />b. Comprehensive Plan Discussion <br />i. Community Character <br />ii. Natural Resources <br />iii.

The <br />following Potential Violations/Enforcement Actions were discussed: <br />1. Delbert and Cherry Nelson — Staff reported they have 4 pugs, a lab and a basset. <br />Noise from barking seems to be the problem and the property owner will need to <br />minimize the barking.
