• <br />• <br />WS — Item 3 <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item 3 <br />Date: March 7, 2011 <br />To: City Council <br />From: Mary Alice Divine <br />Re: 49/J Development Proposal <br />Background <br />Oppidan has met with staff on several occasions regarding a development proposal for a <br />grocer on a portion of the 17 -acre site on the west side of Hodgson Road north of the <br />County Road J intersection. Representatives from Oppidan are bringing the concept to <br />the Council for comments. <br />A number of issues make development of the Hodgson Road /County Road J intersection <br />challenging. Much of the area has existing businesses that affect both short term and long <br />term planning. Anoka County has an interim plan for improvements to the intersection <br />area and an ultimate improvement plan. Significant road improvements and extension of <br />utilities to the area will be needed for any development to occur. <br />Requested Council Direction <br />Staff is seeking direction from Council regarding its interest in pursuing development of <br />a grocer at this location near the 49/J intersection. <br />Attachments: <br />None <br />
