Planning & Zoning Board October 13, 2021 Page 3 APPROVED MINUTES Ms. Larsen said City staff did not have any concerns with the project. However, she noted improvements to the transportation corridor will be needed. Mr. Laden asked which elevation of the building will face Main Street. Ms. Larsen asked the architect to come forward to the podium to specify which side of the building will face Main Street. Denton Mack, with Sperides Reiners Architects, Inc. located at 6442 City West Parkway, Suite 300, Eden Prairie, MN 55344, stated the south elevation will face Main Street. Mr. Wipperfurth wondered if the City will require the sidewalk on the north side of the site to be developed in the future. Ms. Larsen said development of the sidewalk will be required in the future. She stated it is also possible the existing sidewalk on the south side of the parking lot will be extended to the trail. Mr. Wipperfurth asked if there is trail along 24th Avenue currently. Ms. Larsen said no. Mr. Wipperfurth questioned if trail along 24th Avenue will be constructed in the future. Ms. Larsen said the applicant will be responsible for constructing sidewalk and the trail section along 24th Avenue. Mr. Wipperfurth asked if the street next to Duncan Donuts in the Main Street Shoppes development was private or public. Ms. Larsen said it is a private street. Mr. Wipperfurth then inferred connection to the street would not occur because it is private. Ms. Larsen explained the City needs to communicate with the Main Street Shoppes development first to identify what is going to work best for them and who will be their end users. Mr. Wipperfurth asked if the lot between the Belland Farms site and the Main Street Shoppes development is still vacant. Ms. Larsen said the parcel is still vacant.
