EDC Minutes <br />September 18, 2009 <br />Page 5 of 5 <br /> <br />Ms. Steinmetz stated that she doesn’t believe County Road 10 in Mounds View will be <br />redeveloped unless the Council is willing to use the financial tools that the State legislature <br />has afforded to cities in order to conduct redevelopment. She told the EDC that she hopes <br />the City Council will strongly consider developing Citywide goals in the Spring of 2010 that <br />can truly be achieved. <br /> <br /> Commissioner Entsminger left the meeting at this time (8:45am). <br /> <br />C. City Council Denied Business Registration Program Ordinance on Sept. 14, 2009 <br />Ms. Steinmetz said that twelve Mounds View businesses provided input to City staff about <br />their opposition towards this program, which is the main reason why the City Council <br />denied the program. She added that there was an editorial in the Star Tribune today in <br />favor of such a program. <br /> <br />D. New Businesses: Mounds View Family Dental, Consulting Firm, Right Fit Running <br />Ms. Steinmetz alerted the EDC about new businesses coming to Mounds View. <br />Commissioner Johnson noted that all three businesses are planning to locate in either a <br />new building or a newly renovated building in Mounds View. <br /> <br />E.
