-5- <br />Councilman Johnson asked Planning Commission's Milton Stole which was the <br />best exit plan onto County Road I. Mr, Stole replied that the center needed <br />some exiting from Highway #10 to relieve traffic on I and Long Lake Road. He <br />felt moving the County Road I exit further west and out of line with Greenwood <br />Drive would be hazardous. <br />Councilman Johnson asked about lease arrangements. Mr. Paster stated that no <br />tennants were now under lease, but that letters of committment were granted, <br />and that construction could start in 45 days. <br />Councilman Hodges felt that the center would be an asset to the community, that <br />in this day and age we are continually living with traffic problems. <br />Mayor Neisen felt that the Highway #10 exits were necessary and that the exits <br />onto County Road I should be moved so as not to line up with Greenwood Drive. <br />MS (Hodges - Pickar) To rezone the Paster property requested in the legal <br />notice from B -1 to B -3 for a shopping center, <br />MS (Neisen- Johnson) To amend the original motion to approve the rezoning <br />subject to providing entrances or exits on Highway #10. <br />After considerable discussion and a statement by Mr. Paster that to attach <br />such a condition to the proposal may kill his entire project, Councilman <br />Johnson withdrew his second to the amended motion. A vote was then taken on <br />the original motion which passed. 5 Ayes <br />The Council implied in the granting of the rezoning that further progress <br />should be made to seek entrances off of Highway #10 and to work in cooperation <br />with the County of Ramsey regarding entrances and exits on County Road I and <br />Long Lake Road. <br />MSP (Johnson - Baumgartner) To adjourn the hearing at 10:21 P.M. 5 Ayes <br />Councilman Baumgartner's Report(Con't) <br />Councilman Baumgartner stated that the Village would be placing signs along <br />Hillview Road and Greenwood Drive in an attempt to restrict parking to one <br />side of the street. <br />Councilman Baumgartner announced that a Recreation Committee meeting would be <br />held Thursday evening with Ken Simons of the Ramsey County Open Space Department <br />in attendance. <br />Councilman Pickar's Report <br />Councilman Pickar announced that the Human Rights Commission would meet <br />Tuesday, April 24, 1973. <br />MS (Pickar - Hodges) To authorize the Village to use revenue sharing funds not <br />to exceed $4,000.00 as a Village 1/3 share for a temporary traffic signal at <br />the intersection of Quincy Street and County Road I. <br />Councilman Pickar's motion was amended. <br />
