Kimbler and Tom Kurak. At the special meeting on May 25, 1994, the following candidates were <br />scheduled for interviews: Mike Marquart and Virginia Spain-Brist. <br /> <br />Ms. Spain-Brist was unable to attend the meeting. <br /> <br />The Commission's recommendation to reduce its size from 9 members to 7 members had not been <br />officially acted upon by the City Council. However, the Councilmembers have received the <br />memorandum requesting the change and have not voiced any concerns. The Council will take final <br />action at their June 14, 1994 meeting. <br /> <br />Chairperson Wagner suggested a secret ballot vote be used to elect the new members to the <br />Commission. The Commissioners would vote for two people on the ballots that were distributed <br />by Mr. Gromberg. Mr. Gromberg tallied the votes with the following results: <br /> <br />Mr. Marquart 5 <br />Mr. McGhee 5 <br />Mr. Kurak 0 <br />Mr. Kimbler 0 <br />Ms. Spain-Brist 0 <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Kent and seconded by Commissioner Stafki to recommend to City <br />Council that Mr. Marquart and Mr. McGhee be appointed to the Economic Development <br />Commission to terms set to expire on January 31, 1996. <br /> <br />Motion carded. Voting Yes: Chairperson Wagner, Commissioners Nelson, Kent, Ullen and <br />Stafki. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Case #2: Land Use Plan Update <br /> <br />The Commission has been provided with the latest land use plan update information that has been <br />received by the City. This information included a land use comparison memo for each option. The <br />Commission did not feel comfortable making a recommendation at this time; however, they did <br />inquire as to the current status of the plan, and if the City would be meeting with the consultants <br />again. <br /> <br />Mr. Gromberg said that he was not aware of any additional meetings scheduled with the <br />consultants; however, he would find out and let the members know. He stated that there would be <br />a public hearing prior to the new plan's acceptance and that the EDC could also comment at that <br />time in regard to this matter. <br /> <br />It was the consensus of the Commission to postpone any recommendation until they are able to <br />attend a meeting with the consultants. <br /> <br />Case #3: Proposed Service Road at 153rd Avenue N.W. and State Highway <br />#10 <br /> <br />Mr. Gromberg informed the Commission that an informational meeting had been conducted with <br />the <br />property owners at the intersection of State Highway #10 and 153rd Avenue N.W. The purpose <br />of this meeting was to address a change in current uses on one of the properties in the Cowles <br />Addition. Currently, there are four principal uses on the two lots that comprise this addition. The <br /> <br />Economic Development Commission / June 9, 1994 <br /> Page 2 of 3 <br /> <br /> <br />
