Motion carried. <br /> APPLICANI': City of Pequot Lakes <br /> Applicant requests an Ordinance Amendment regarding Flag Pole Height <br /> Mr. Burslie explained the Staff Report. Last month lighting of flags was also discussed. <br /> Staff contacted the City Attorney who stated if we have an ordinance regarding upward <br /> lighting, it has to be applied citywide. With the current ordinance, downward lighting <br /> would be required for flags. <br /> Planning Commission Member Norton stated he missed last month's meeting, but what <br /> was the height of the TDS flag. Vice-Chair Birch stated it was 5o feet. He further stated <br /> there was dialogue with the public as the folks from Minnesota Inboard and Babinski <br /> Properties attended. The Planning Commission had come to a consensus that 6o feet <br /> was a midpoint between what they requested and the 25 feet allowed. Mr. Burslie stated <br /> he thought it was split, not a consensus. <br /> Planning Commission Member Wilson stated that Chair Hallan had a very good point, <br /> stating that we don't have much wind. Planning Commission Member Wilson visited <br /> the Dondelinger site with a 9 mph wind, their large flag was hanging down and the <br /> smaller ones were flapping in the wind. It was more attractive and the Legion flag the <br /> same way; the big flags were hardly moving at all. <br /> Planning Commission Member Paulbeck stated that is an interesting point, but it is not <br /> up to us. No one was complaining about it and no one's safety was at risk. He had <br /> driven through the lot for Minnesota Inboard and their lot does sit down below the <br /> highway. If they come back for a Variance, he would like to see an actual to-scale <br /> rendering. <br /> Public comment: None. <br /> A motion was made by Planning Commission Member Wilson, seconded by <br /> Planning Commission Member Norton, to recommend the City Council <br /> MINUTES 4 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> July i8, 2oi9 <br />
