<br /> <br />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 <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 di rection 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CMU looked outdated and the preference was for the split-face CMU for the exterior block.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.
