We ro;:commend that the housing be made available to any organization which can, through the McKinney Act and other federal processes, make appropriate use of the buildings elsewhere on or off the propeny. Future population and other circumstances may dictate a need for more educational spac~. If the'need develops for greater educational space, school development should be designed in such a manner as to minimize the amount of land needed, to use the features of the land in such a way as to encourage that it does not infringe upon nor use open space. 4. ~conomic DeveloDment Commercial, office and industrial development opportunities exist on the property which will benefit the surrounding communities and the larger metropolitan area. It is imponant to create an environment which encourages a broad range of development opportunities and jobs. Create a development climate which encourages the formation of a wide range of development opportunities and job types. To that end, provide at least 200 acres for the redevelopment of Office, Commercial, and/or Industrial uses adjacent to Interstate 35W, US Highway 10, and State Highway 96. 5. Intellration Encourage the inkgration of the transportation, govenunental, educational, and recreational services with the adja\;ent communities where possible. Encourage multiple and shared uses, buildings, and facilities to minimize the infrastNcture costs and impervious areas on the site. Encourage the consuuction "f a joint public works facility along the Highway 10 or 96 corridor. Allow the City of Arden Hills to obtain and use the land south of the service road on the south side of SunfiSh lake to construct a City Hall/Government Center.

Stonnwater retention ponds .which may be needed should be kept within the developed areas of the site, outside of designatea upen space. Developers should retain responsibility for '~~t;"g these ponds within their own development areas. Reuse existing on-site infrastructure to the extent that is practical and cost-effective. Transportation Jor the site should be designed and built in a manner that is sensitive to the environment. It should include an internal system of roads that is transit friendly. The traJl5POrtation plan should link TCAAP to the rest of Arden Hills and adjacent communities as well as to the regional transportation system; encourage alternate travel modes such as biking and wallcing by creating pedestrian-friendly environments and link activity centers with trails and other non-vehicular routes; include public transit; and promote desirable development patterns. I<'1iJ.i92.d Right-c:f-\\!aj~ The railroad right-of-way extending from TCAAP to Long Lake RegIonal Park should be pre:o.erved as future regional trail connections. Trails within TCAAP should connect this trail segment with the Rice Creek Regional Trail and the proposed regional
