FRATTALONE The Council reviewed the City Administrator's report dated February PROPERTY 6, 2004 relative to the potential acquisition of the Frattalone property. Fahey noted that unless there is a reduction in the asking price for the property, it does not appear that the City's potential use of the property is feasible. Fahey also stated that, in his opinion, this site was not a good location for a school facility given that the property is located in an industrial park. Fahey felt that a use similar to the em~rent use was what worked for this location. Fahey also pointed out that the City has not yet resolved the issue of the future of its water system, and felt there had to be resolution of that issue before a decision can be made on how to proceed with the Public Worl<s garage. Fahey noted that if St. Paul takes over the City's water system, the Frattalone garage may be too big for the City's Public Works Department. The City Administrator noted that the current Public Works garage could not be added onto without a variance. He also informed the Council that City staff is again beginning work on the issue of the City's water system, noting that the City of Roseville contract with St. Paul Water is up for renewal in April.
