Mr. Arkell stated he would review the feasibility of this option and get back with the City as soon as possible. Mr. Arkell also asked if the time was appropriate to ask for Council consideration of allowing him to demolish a second home on the Betty Smith property, and construct a second log home to use as an office for his business. He stated that Ms. Smith's house had early been a commercial use, and used as a model for a Log Home business. The staff will look into this issue and report back to the Council. The City Administrator related a concern of the City Attorney on the ability to put a cul- de-sac on 55th Street. The Minnesota Municipal Board awarded the Kern Center, and the 55th Street right-of-way to the North property line of the Arkell property. His concern was that of who had jurisdiction over the road. Residents that had supported Mr. Arkell's project in the past expressed concern over this issue, and stated their approval was conditioned on the street having a cul-de-sac to cut down on the traffic in front of their homes. The City Staff, including the City Attorney will investigate this in more detail and report back to the Council as soon as possible. The meeting was adjourned at 6:45 p.m.
