Motion by Board Member Valentine and seconded by Board Member Hiatt to officially change the regular meeting day of the Environmental Policy Board to the third Monday of each month beginning April, 2015. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Stodola, Board Member Valentine, Hiatt, Bentz, Bernard, and Lewis. Voting No: None. Absent: Board Member Pendergast. 5.03: Distribute Chapter 13 (Environmental Protection/Resource Management) of the Comprehensive Plan City Planner Anderson presented the staff report. He clarified that this is just informational so that the Board can have sufficient time to prepare and discuss this matter. He noted that the item will appear on a future agenda as a formal evaluation and discussion. 6. BOARD / STAFF INPUT • Statement of Purpose Update City Planner Anderson stated that based on the demand on the City Council Worksession schedules and the limit on time, it would be difficult to bring that item up in that format and he will instead bring the Statement of Purpose forward to a regular City Council meeting. He believed that could occur at the second City Council meeting in February and noted that once the date is solidified he will alert the Board so that all available Board Members could attend. • Other Board Member Bentz noted that MPR is conducting segments on climate change specific to Minnesota this week. He advised that the segment is played and replayed on the station but is also available for streaming on the MPR website. City Council Liaison LeTourneau suggested that City staff advertise that link on the City Facebook page for residents that may be interested in the environmental topic. 7. ADJOURNMENT Motion by Board Member Hiatt and seconded by Board Member Valentine to adjourn the meeting. The meeting adjourned at 7:30 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Chris Anderson City Planner Environmental Policy Board / February 2, 2015 Page 4 of 5
