This database will be helpful in the completion of the Comprehensive Plan <br /> Update,helping to prioritize areas of preservation over future development. The database will also be helpful in <br /> determining policy direction when citizens request certain environmental review. Having this database in-house <br /> will help the City proactively and much more efficiently react to these inquiries. <br /> Details of limitations on data sharing are included in the attached contract. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Staff recommends approval of the contract. <br /> Action: <br /> Motion to adopt Resolution#17-04-096 approving a contract with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources <br /> for the National Heritage Information System Database. <br /> Attachments <br /> NHIS Contract <br /> Form Review <br /> Inbox Reviewed By Date <br /> Kurt Ulrich Kurt Ulrich 04/20/2017 03:09 PM <br /> Form Started By:Tim Gladhill Started On:03/28/2017 05:57 PM <br /> Final Approval Date:04/20/2017 <br />
