COUNCIL WORK SESSION JUNE 12, 1989 I Elm Street in the future are not clear. He has been discussing exchanging Elm Street with 24th Avenue with the County. The County is not very receptive to this idea. 2nd Avenue MSA improvement will be placed on the next Council agenda. D. ERICKSON'S TOWNHOUSES - WILLOW POND Mr. Stahlberg displayed a map of the townhouses noting the ponding area near Elm Street and the approach to Sunset Road. He displayed another map showing a possible alignment of Elm Street as it approaches Sunset Road. He has shown this map to Mr. John Olson, County Engineer. Mr. Olson felt this might be a practical solution and said he would talk to another person at the County about this matter. The re- alignment would affect about four parcels of property south of Elm Street. It was suggested that if these properties were condemned and the street re- aligned, then the property to the north of the new street could be added to the townhome subdivision. Mayor Benson noted that the citizens along Elm Street have said no to the upgrading of Elm Street. However, if the west end were upgraded, it would make sense to upgrade the entire street. Mr. Neal suggested ,talking to the developer and asking him to purchase the four parcels of land affected by the re- alignment. The City could hold up the development of the west portion of the townhomes until the road situation is resolved and this would possibly add more land to the townhome subdivision. Mr. Stahlherg said he would place 2nd Avenue on the next Council agenda and contact D. Erickson and Anoka County regarding Rim Street. Mr. Bisel also suggested that another neighborhood meeting be held in the Elm Street area. The Work Session was adjourned at 6:54 P.M. These minutes were considered and approved at a regular Council meeting on June 26, 1989. *y} Maril �n G. Anderson, Clerk - Treasurer 4
