On

We
have
the
variance
site
plan
review
appeal
from
Wells
Fargo
that
was
postponed
from
the
january
fifteenth
meeting.
This
item
was
brought
forward
from
the
zoning
and
planning
committee.
Councilmember
bender
would
like
to
speak
to
this
item.
I
believe,
sir.
J
I'm
happy
to
move
this
item
a
brief
explanation.
This
was
to
allow
time
for
Wells
Fargo
to
bring
forward
a
agreement
to
provide
the
extra
parking
that
we
allow
them
to
have
above
what
was
allowed
in
the
maximum
parking
requirements
there
and
make
those
spaces
available
to
the
community.
So
they
have
submitted
that
staff
has
reviewed
it.
So
I'm
happy
to
move
to
grant
this
appeal.
A
E
B
A
Next
order
of
business
is
under
new
business.
We
have
noticed
by
vice
president
glidden
and
myself
to
introduce
at
the
next
meeting
the
subject
matter
of
an
ordinance
amending
the
code
to
add
a
new
chapter,
18
a
for
a
target
market
program
and
that
notice
is
given
I
think
our
final
items.
Today,
our
announcements
are
there:
any
announcements
will
force
from
any
council
members,
councilmember
Gordon.
D
Thank
You
mr.
chair
I
just
wanted
to
note
that
the
winter
cycling
Congress
is
going
to
be
held
in
Minneapolis
coming
up
next
week,
februari
second
to
the
fourth.
This
is
a
exciting
opportunity
for
us
to
showcase
what
we
have
to
offer.
This
is
an
international
conference,
and
so
we'll
have
people
from
all
over
the
world
coming
here.
So,
let's
hope
for
some
good
snow
so
that
they
can
see
what's
real
winter.
So
I
can
resolve
enough
they're
good.
Any.
A
Additional
announcements
not
seeing
any
I'll
make
the
final
announcement.
Of
course
today
begins
the
pond
hockey
championships
at
lake
nokomis,
so
you're
all
invited
to
come
out
to
the
beautiful
shores
of
lake
nokomis,
which
are
currently
frozen
and
the
weather
is
going
to
be
so.
Nice
I
think
you
can
probably
ride
your
bikes
for
the
next
couple
of
days.
So
just
wanted
to
make
sure
people
knew
that
those
championships
will
be
going
on
this
weekend
at
lake
nokomis
alondra
Cano
as
a
announcement
I'm.
H
So
sorry,
council,
member
John
container,
just
remembered
tomorrow,
is
the
art
sled
rally
at
powderhorn
park,
so
families
are
invited
to
come
and
bring
a
sled
or
sheriff
sled.
There
will
be
a
lot
of
really
amazing
that
have
been
built
over
the
last
couple
of
weeks
and
hopefully,
we'll
have
some
snow
still
on
the
ground
to
be
able
to
run
our
sleds
down
put
our
own
hill.
So
if
folks
want
to
come,
if
I
believe
it
starts
at
two
p.m.
and
it'll
probably
run
for
about
two
hours.
Thank.
A
You
not
seeing
any
additional
announcements
so
with
that
council
members
I
think
we
were
completed
all
matters
on
the
agenda
for
today's
meeting
with
nothing
else
to
come
before
the
council
entertain
a
motion
to
adjourn
and
second
it
and
that
all
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
opposed
that
item
carries
and
we
are
adjourned.
Thank
you
very
much.
