The Council will not take action on items discussed during open forum; however, the Council may add the item to a future meeting agenda a nd ask city staff for follow-up.) VI. REGULAR AGENDA 1. The Council will consider a resolution approving the plat of Sunnybrook Acres 5 th Addition. This property is three parcels which were acquired by MnDOT for the Highway 100 project. MnDOT has declared the property surplus and is conveying the property to the EDA, which will convey it to abutting homeowners for fair market value. At its July 12 meeting, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed plat and recommended approval of the preliminary and final plat of Sunnybrook Acres 5th Addition. 2. The Council will consider requests relating to a proposed art show at Bassett Creek Park located at 6001 – 32nd Ave N: i. Permission to use the park for transient merchant sales; and ii. Exemption from fees and criminal history checks relating to licensing requirements for transient merchant sales. At its July 15 meeting, the Parks and Recreation Commission considered a proposal to conduct an art fair in Bassett Creek Park this October to benefit endangered animals due to the oil spill in the gulf. Because the City Code does not allow for the sale of anything in a park by a private party, the Council needs to determine whether the proposed activity is appropriate as well as whether fees should be waived.
