2219 <br />use this, it will mean more students for shopping, etc, <br />I don't feel in a very strong position to argue that you <br />should not pass this motion for amendment to this <br />Ordinance. I think if I were in Killmer's position, I guess <br />I might get on the impatient side myself, after all, it has <br />been quite a few years pending. I have this opportunity, <br />at least, to forestall or delay action, so the legislature <br />could act or the University could. We have before this <br />legislature a request for the money to purchase this <br />property. We have had some appraisals on it. <br />Nils-ens Do you know the exact number of feet you would purchase <br />on the back of the property? <br />Hueg: I do not, inasmuch as I have no access to those files. It <br />seems to me that to the legislature we are showing a <br />straight line across here (on the map) or an area of about <br />82 acres, A year ago Dean Berg and I had indicated that we <br />would request this, <br />Nilsens When I go back to the acquisition of private property, the <br />depth the University took along here (Larpenteur Avenue on <br />the map) left a very narrow strip along Larpenteur and it <br />seems to me that a good set of structures could have been <br />built; but now, there is dust a narrow strip left along <br />Larpenteur Avenue. <br />Huegs T don't think there is any magic about that 8~ acres, I <br />think the important thing is we would have a contiguous <br />piece right next door and we would have access by being <br />able to cross over that corner. <br />Nilsen: What all of us would like to see is sough land immediately <br />adjacent to Larpenteur. Actually, prior acquisition has <br />been in3urious. <br />Brought up in our planning years ago, was a proposal for a <br />land switch between the University and private holders. The <br />University owns up to Larpenteur Avenue, and we have talked <br />about switches before. <br />Blacks This Proposed Ordinance 71 is not changing much. It is merely <br />allowing additional usage. Would you care to comment on <br />additional usage that would be allowed? <br />Huegs If someone else were sitting here, they might be very strict <br />about this, My feeling is that if the University wanted this, <br />they could have purchased it before. <br />Killmers The University has interfered with many sales I could have made. <br />RESOLUTIONS Black introduced the following resolution and moved its <br />adoptions <br />WHEREAS, proposed Ordinance No. 7l which is an ordinance <br />amending Ordinance No. 61~, has been recommended for passage <br />by the Planning Commission of the Village of Falcon Heights, and <br />1 <br />i <br />U <br />
