Mounds View City Council July 14, 2014 Regular Meeting Page 4 Hearing no further public input, Mayor Flaherty closed the public hearing at 7:53 p.m. Council Member Meehlhause asked what style of homes would be placed on the five single- family lots. Terry Buchanan, Kayak Remodeling & Redevelopment, explained split entry homes were being proposed and would range in price from $300,000-325,000. Mayor Flaherty questioned where the retention ponds would be located. Planning Associate Heller described the location of the ponds on the three deep lots reporting the homes on these lots would have to be raised. Mr. Buchanan commented that the Rice Creek Watershed would be reviewing his request and this would ensure all water runoff was properly managed. Mayor Flaherty inquired if a builder had been selected. Mr. Buchanan indicated he had not selected a single builder, but had several in mind. Mayor Flaherty asked how the property would be addressed if the lots were not sold and developed in the near future. Mr. Buchanan anticipated that the proposed homes at the suggested price point would be attractive in this market. However, if the lots were unable to sell, he would seed the lots, keep them maintained and wait for buyers. Council Member Mueller questioned what type of marketing signage would be placed on the lots. Mr. Buchanan hoped that signage would not have to be placed on the lots. He anticipated that one lot would be sold at a time. MOTION/SECOND: Gunn/Mueller.
