1125 <br />Nilsen Lee, how does your lot lie in relation to Fairview? <br />Lee The West line is just a little Plest of the center of Fairview <br /> . <br />About 1t'. One piece is 138' and the other about 37'. The <br /> whole thing is just a little over 175' wide and about 2lt0' <br /> deep, 190' from the new property line. They propose to set <br /> the new building back 50', the same as i!Qando's. <br />Schmelz Vve don't know yet whether we will us.e brick, steel or concrete. <br /> Y!e will do anything the Council recommends. <br />Armco Repre- When people think of steel buildings, they usually .think of <br />sentative warehouses and storage sheds. U!e have new designs and, now, <br /> hospitals, schools, business buildings and churches are being <br /> built of steel. They use interlocking panels, buildings are <br /> painted and they are nice looking. <br />Schmelz We would probably have a brick facing on the front. We are <br /> not compelled to put up a steel building. As a matter of <br /> fact, a steel building costs more than brick and block. <br /> Steel has a 2" insulation factor, and the heat loss is much <br /> less. <br />Armco A11 our buildings are designed to comply with St. Paul's code. <br /> We will furnish sketches. <br />Shavor The Council has the choice of not hurting anybody and permitting <br /> every rezoning request that comes in or exercising judgment <br /> and waiting until we have a complete planning report. I don't <br /> think it's sensible to spend twenty-five hundred to three <br /> thousand dollars for comprehensive planning and then approve <br /> something which definitely does not comply with proposed plan. <br />Nilsen I feel very much the same way. You men were here at the <br /> meeting when Dahlgren presented his plan, and I think you will <br /> agree with us that we ought to allow this to be brought to <br /> a conclusion with interruption. Our Planning Commission re- <br /> quested this survey. <br />Schmelz They have a Planning Commission in Bloomington and sometimes <br /> the Council disregards the Planning ?3oard's recommendations. <br />Les Dahlgren recommends office use. There are buildings downtown <br /> that are begging for tenants. <br />Nilsen They are crying for tenants because people can't get to them <br /> any more. <br />Shavor This spot is just about half way between the St. Paul and <br /> ~4inneapolis loops. . <br />Warkentien I, personally, was very much in favor of this the night it was <br />brought up; but I don't feel we <br />h <br />ld <br />i <br /> s <br />ou <br />go aga <br />nst the <br /> Professional °lanner's advice. <br />Yngbe I think you will find a retail automobile store is as intense <br /> a use as you can get, and I would like an opportunity to talk <br />
