WHEREAS, the Mendota Heights Planning Commission held a public hearing on this matter
at their regular meeting on June 23, 2015.

following findings of fact:
1. The proposed subdivision request meets the purpose and intent of the City Code and is
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.

reinforcement of the existing driveway.

variance requests as proposed in Planning Case 2015-23 are hereby approved with the following
conditions:
