TRIDENT DEVELOPMENT (ARBOR OAKS) UPDATE

Construction on the building will begin in July /August with the facility to open by late summer
2013.
BUNKER/CROSSTOWNREDEVELOPMENT UPDATE
Mr. Dickinson stated the parcel on 138` Avenue the City bid on earlier this year is still vacant.
Mr. Dickinson reviewed the area. The consensus of the EDA is to continue to focus on the area
on Bunker Lake Boulevard south of 138 th Avenue.
OTHER BUSINESS
Mr. Carlberg indicated he met with representatives from Christian Brothers Automotive.
Christian Brothers have a purchase agreement with Kottkes for the parcel located at 1716 Bunker
Lake Boulevard.
Mr. Carlberg stated parcels zoned Industrial require a forty (40) foot front and rear setback. He
believes a forty (40) foot rear setback is excessive. Blaine and Coon Rapids have a twenty -five
(25) foot rear setback and Ramsey a twenty (20) foot. A forty (40) foot setback could pose an
issue with the Christian Brothers' site plan. The large building houses the vehicles at night so no
vehicles are left outside. Mr. Carlberg suggested a text amendment to the rear setback to be more
consistent with other communities. This item will be brought to the Planning & Zoning
Commission at their July l O meeting.
ADJOURNMENT
Motion by Bukkila, Seconded by Howard to adjourn. Motion carried unanimously. The meeting
adjourned at 6:55 p.m.
