The Planning <br /> Commission plays a vital role in the current and future development <br /> of the City. Duties of the Commission include holding public <br /> hearings for amendments, conditional use permits, plats, etc. The <br /> Commission must also review the adequacy and scope of the <br /> Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan. <br /> The Commission also acts as the Board of Adjustment and <br /> Appeals. The powers of this Board are to hear and decide appeals <br /> if it is felt there was an error in an order, requirement, decision or <br /> determination, to hear requests for variances and to interpret the <br /> meaning of the Zoning Ordinance. <br /> During his tenure, Mr. Mark participated in a review of the <br /> Comprehensive Plan and several amendments made to it, attended <br /> public hearings on plats, conditional use permits, variances and a <br /> Planned Unit Development. The sign section of the Zoning <br /> Ordinance also sustained a thorough review, as well as the <br /> implementation of a Housing Code. The Land Subdivision <br /> Ordinance was rewritten during this time. <br /> Mr. Mark brought an interesting perspective to the meetings and <br /> was not afraid to share his thoughts and experiences as they dealt <br /> with the subject at hand. I feel he would be an asset to the <br /> university system. <br /> If you have any questions or need additional information, please <br /> MAYOR feel free to contact me at 320-256-4278. <br /> George O'Brien <br /> Sinc rely, <br /> COUNCIL MEMBERS <br /> Ernest Hedglin vv C <br /> Jone Meyer <br /> George Jensen <br /> Nancy Roaring ose Ann Inderrieden <br /> City Administrator <br /> CITY ADMINISTRATOR <br /> Rose Ann Inderrieden E:\Wordfiles\Planning&Zoning Commission\Correspondence\D Mark.doc <br />
