The area to be developed would include apartments, office /warehouse, office, <br />motel office, retail commercial and restaurants commercial. <br />Mr. Aslanidis stated the Comprehensive Plan suggested a P.U.D., with a mixture of <br />uses and provides a tool to work with. Mr. Aslanidis stated that a median cut on <br />Highway 10 between County Road H and County Road H2 would minimize the traffic that <br />would exit onto H2. He also stated that the planned curb cuts on H2 had been cut to <br />four from eight, at the request of the Planning Commission. <br />They have checked the drainage plan with Short,Elliot, Hendrickson and Associates. <br />The drainage pond is proposed to collect water from the area, on the south side and <br />a smaller holding pond might be developed on the east side. They will have a better <br />idea once Rice Creek has approved the plan. <br />Mayor Pickar stated that the plan is up for approval of the concept and that a public <br />hearing would be held again and that the Council is just to act upon the concept tonight <br />Lucille Miller, 5287 Raymond asked how many apartment buildings would be put up on H2. <br />Mr. Asianidis replied a total of 129 units were planned, and they were not certain <br />yet how many buildings that would involve. <br />Mrs. Miller asked if the City had not at one time said there would be no more apart- <br />ment buildings allowed in Mounds View. Mayor Pickar replied that yes, the City had <br />said they would not rezone any more property. However, the property in question is <br />already zoned for apartments. <br />Mrs. Miller asked if duplexes could be built instead. Mr. Aslanidis replied that duplexes <br />were a possibility but that it all depended upon the market requirements in the future <br />and that apartments were planned. <br />
