Ms. Catherine Decker, 614 Pine Street, commented that no one respects communal property so <br /> she suggested rather than communal/open space, put the nature on the people's property and <br /> let them be stewards of that. She wants to know if(the city) is just after the money. <br /> Lou Jungbauer, 679 Andall Street, said he was around when Mayor Rafferty and Councilmember <br /> Lyden first ran for office and believes both are out there out there fighting for the average person <br /> —he wants them to do that now. He said he moved from South Minneapolis to Lino Lakes for the <br /> lifestyle offered here. He now believes a developer wants to change that (lifestyle). <br /> Ms. Sharon Crickmer, 583 Andall Street, stated it has been difficult for her to see the impact on <br /> the wild life since development started. She is thankful for Council looking at the (concept) plan. <br /> She applauds the 25-foot buffer. <br /> Mr. John Jungbauer, 679 Andall Street, said he likes to listen to all sides and what struck him is <br /> that there were plots that weren't in the plan.

Council consensus was to see an update concept plan with a focus on 80-foot lots, <br /> ensuring a buffer to Andall Street, and increased spacing with regard to side setbacks. Council <br /> was also unanimously in favor of a neighborhood meeting should the project continue to move <br /> forward. <br /> 3. 440 Park Court Concept Plan <br /> City Planner Katie Larsen presented revised concept plan for a multi-tenant industrial and indoor <br /> storage facility at 440 Park Court. The applicant, Lariat Companies, presented a concept plan to <br /> Council in August and has revised that plan based on feedback and direction received from <br /> Council. Planner Larsen reviewed the updated plan, including a history of the property, zoning <br /> considerations, and recommendations received from the Environmental Board and Planning and <br /> Zoning Board as well as staff recommendations. <br /> Council commented that the exterior of the building needs more dimension or additional relief <br /> to break up the perception of a wall of concrete.The consensus was also that the smooth surface <br /> CMU looked outdated and the preference was for the split-face CMU for the exterior block. <br /> Wayde Johnson with AmCon Construction was present and spoke with Council on other similar <br /> projects in the metro area by this same property owner. He also offered insight as to American <br />
