compliance with City Staff's review letter dated December 28, 1992 and discussion at this meeting. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Bawden, Commissioners Deemer, Hendriksen, Holland, La_Due, Terry and Thomd. Voting No: None. Case #4: Proposed Ordinance Amending Ramsey City Code Chapter 9 Section 9.11.02 Subdivision 2, Accessory Uses Project Manager Gromberg stated that City Staff has been reviewing sections of the Ramsey City Code as the codification process is being completed. It has become apparent that sections of the Code conflict with one another. One such section is Section 9.11.02 Accessory Uses, Subdivision 2 which deals with the exterior storage of automobiles. Chapter 5.12 Condition of Premises, Item A, also deals with vehicle storage. Section 9.11.02 contradicts Section 5.12; therefore Staff is recommending language changes. Mr. Gromberg stated that City Staff is recommending that the Planning and Zoning Commission schedule a public hearing for the ordinance amendment and upon receiving input from concerned residents, make a recommendation to the City Council. Motion by Commissioner Hendriksen and seconded by Commissioner Terry to direct Staff to schedule a public hearing regarding the proposed amendment to Section 9. I1.02 Accessory Uses, Subdivision 2 of the Ramsey City Code. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Bawden, Commissioners Hendriksen, Terry, Deemer, Holland, LaDue and Thorud. Voting No: None. Chairperson Bawden recessed the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting at 8:54 p.m. Chairperson Bawden called the meeting back to order at 9:04 p.m. Case #5: Proposed Ordinance Regulating Single Family Dwelling and Accessory Structures to be Moved Into or Within the City of Ramsey Building Official Huff stated that the City's past policy for moving structures into the City could be expedited. He proposed the following procedure: An applicant would file an application and submit an escrow fee. City Staff would inspect the structure for building and zoning code compliance, file a written report and inform the applicant of approval or denial of the application in writing. If the permit is denied, the applicant may appeal to the City Administrator within 30 days. This appeal would then be submitted to City Council for a final decision. This would eliminate review by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Discussion ensued with regard to the amount that should be charged to ensure the City will not get "stuck" with a structure that cannot be repaired or brought up to Code. Motion by Commissioner I-Iendriksen and seconded by Commissioner Deemer to table voting on this proposed ordinance regulating single family dwellings and accessory structures to be moved into or within the City of Ramsey and direct Staff to include language in the proposed ordinance requiring the applicant to Provide the City with a financial guarantee in an amount sufficient to ensure completion of the project or remedial action for a sub-standard structure. The Commission directed this case be presented at a subsequent meeting. Planning & Zoning Commission/January 5, 1993 Page 4 of 6
