713 Don't ruin the charm of the Village. There are plenty of ways to maintain its uniqueness <br />and make money. <br />714 Great place with a lot of potential. You guys have done. Great job so far as the <br />community has grown. <br />719 It would be wonderful if Main Street was more pedestrian friendly to the homes near <br />downtown. A great community center with gym, pool, pickleball, racquetball, senior <br />classes, yoga/ health classes restaurant or coffee shop would vitalize Lake Elmo. <br />724 There are a number of neighborhoods and prospective neighborhoods close enough to <br />walk or bike to the downtown area but there are obstacles such as crossing Stillwater <br />Blvd. Need to make this much more accessible to have a vibrant downtown. <br />728 We need more places to enjoy. Shops, nice restaurants, no fast food. <br />730 Keep in mind parking ️ with what is being built as well as how busy the area can get <br />during events that are held, potentially parking will need to be expanded/need more <br />options. <br />735 No, other than I appreciate you doing this survey and seeking community input. <br />737 Stop with the housing. Just stop. The Met Council sucks and you need to stop. <br />748 I acknowledge the challenge of growth while maintaining small town charm wth historic <br />roots. I don't have a problem with single family homes, townhouses and low rise <br />appartments. More development, including busineeses, away from the L.E. <br />Blvd/Stillwater Blvd area would be good. <br />753 Would love to see local businesses rather than any chains brought in <br />756 I see potential but I also worry that there is nothing to tie it all together like other cute <br />areas with a river or lake nearby. We have a lake, obviously, but access is limited and not <br />really connected to the village. Without easy access to the village itself people need to <br />want to take a trip and there's just not enough cohesion. Maybe that's in the branding. It's <br />not that far off from a place like Hopkins as kind of a cute destination but it still needs <br />more commerce to draw people in. <br />759 Keep it small!!!!! <br />766 Please keep the small town feel of the village area alive. It has a very unique and great <br />feel. Develop the area by 94 to have the new suburban feel if that is what the city is <br />aiming for. <br />768 Keep the old village quaint and attractive. Add variety of businesses to increase customer <br />volume. Improve walking access to old village. Cty rd 14 is difficult and dangerous to <br />cross. <br />ResponseID Response
