MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Marie Darling, Planning Director
MEETING DATE: January 16, 2018
RE: City Code Text Amendments for Zoning and Subdivision Regulations
Concerning Administration and Procedures for Applications
FILE: 18.01 (Sections 1201.04, 1201.05, 1201.25, 1202.03 and 1202.09 of City Code)
Staff proposes "housekeeping amendments" to modify the procedures for zoning and subdivision
regulations to accomplish the following tasks:
Reflect changing practices regarding mailing labels practices at Hennepin County
Increase the distance mailed notices are sent for requests for rezoning, subdivision, and PUD
applications
Modify the time allowed between submission of applications and the date of the public hearing
The proposed language is attached. Staff are also proposing changes to the fees to make sure that
application review is self-sustaining and to cover the increased notification and recording costs associated
with development applications. The City Council reviews fee increases. Staff also propose to correct two
references in the subdivision regulations to the appropriate city code section where the fees for subdivision
applications are codified.
Mailing labels
Many cities' code (including Shorewood's) requires mailing labels to be provided and certified by
Hennepin County. Hennepin County has informed all their cities that they will no longer be certifying lists
of property owners or providing mailing labels, but has created a service on their website to allow users the
ability to create lists of property owners, maps of affected properties and mailing labels. Initially, staff had
begun to require that applicants use the website to provide the information. What staff has found in the
short time the data base has been available is that we are spending more time assisting and correcting
problems with the labels than if we initially created the labels ourselves. Consequently, staff propose to
amend the ordinance language to remove the requirement that applicants submit mailing labels and staff
will use Hennepin and Carver County mailing label services.

Mailed notices
At a recent City Council worksession, the Council asked staff to research whether the mailing distance is
adequate for most applications. As a result of the discussion, the City Council decided to keep the mailing
distances the same and review changes on a case by case basis. To be able to provide as much direction as
possible for applicants and developers up front, staff proposes to increase the distance requirements for
rezoning, subdivision and PUD applications and avoid a situation where the Council needs to redirect staff
to widen the notice distance after an application is submitted. Setting the distance requirements ahead of
time also prevents conflicts with the land use application review deadlines imposed by State Statute.
Public hearing/meeting schedules
The current ordinance requirements are very inflexible concerning the time between submission of
application materials and the scheduling of public hearings. Staff has proposed allowing more flexibility in
the language to permit staff to work with an applicant to improve their application to better meet code
requirements prior to bringing the application before the Planning Commission and City Council as may be
needed.
