c/ 76 Z C Ceileak 515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 (612) 484 -2177 / FAX: (612) 484 -4538 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Hanson and Members of the City Council FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator DATE: May 22, 1992 RE: Country Drive Development MAYOR Raymond G. Hanson COUNCIL Beverly Scalze Bill Blesener Rick Collova Jim LaValle ADMINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson Mr. Mark Malsam will be appearing at Wednesday's meeting to talk about the status of the Country Drive development. I have kept him apprised as to the status of Loren Brueggemann's project. Due to the fact that the process has moved very slowly, Mr. Malsam is asking if the City can get another developer involved in the project. I have informed him that the City would consider another developer as long as the goals of the development district are met. However, I think it is unlikely that another developer would be interested given the financial market and their unfamiliarity with the project. Mr. Brueggemann has informed me that the partnership which controls Kandice Heights I and II is being split up. His associates will control Kandice Heights I. Loren will control Kandice Heights II and subsequent developments. The financing for Kandice Heights III is in place according to Mr. Brueggemann. Loren has also informed us that he will be correcting deficiencies in the Kandice Heights II project that we had previously discussed. Should evidence of these corrections not be visible by Wednesday night, I would like the Council to direct the Building Inspector, working in conjunction with the Ramsey County Sheriff's Department, to issue the appropriate citations for the violations of ordinances which may exist. Loren has acknowledged his deficiencies in this regard. He has also been informed that actions now speak louder than words. JRH:kpv Page 19
