3. C/7 E:NTRANCEE <br /> Section three is the first area that a visitor would see if coming off of <br /> Interstate 35W. This section should leave a lasting impression on the first time <br /> visitor to Mounds View as well as the frequent commuter. In addition, residents <br /> can feel good about coming home when they enter the community through the <br /> entrance. it is suggested to have a monument sign constructed in this section <br /> with quality landscaping as a welcome to the entrance of Mounds View. <br /> This area catets to the-visitor_and includes filling stations,fastfood.. <br /> restaurfrts convetnience`'storesr.entertairimeritfacilities`and overnight. <br /> ac erimodations. The area would be ideal for a major hotel\conference facility <br /> due to its convenience and exposure on Interstate 35W. <br /> When fully redeveloped the area will tie in nicely with the section 2 <br /> recreational area and would draw visitors from farther distances due to the <br /> accessibility of accommodations and facilities all in one close proximity. <br /> 4. =R ECTONALBUS/NE375TATER <br /> Section four consists of Mounds View's Business Park which houses various <br /> limited.manuracturing\warehbil a and distribution_facilities;.

Of those employees, <br /> 8% are from Mounds View with the majority coming from all over the metro <br /> area, Chisago County, [sante County and even Western Wisconsin. The <br /> business park is currently 90% developed. One remaining parcel is slated for a <br /> 118,000 sq.ft building.

This includes an'office complex development <br /> housing professional service companies, restaurants, convenience store and car <br /> wash. There is at least one vacant lot, zoned commercial, which could <br /> accommodate an office building. In addition, there are four single family homes <br /> which encompass the entire corner of Woodale and Highway 10. Since <br /> commuter traffic is moving at such a high speed in this area and there are no <br /> designated turn lanes onto their properties, residential living is not conducive <br /> to the development.' Everest Development currently owns each end house and <br /> has been trying to negotiate a reasonable sale price for the remaining <br /> properties for commercial development. When developing this section, care <br /> needs to be taken to property buffer the residential neighborhood on Jeffrey <br /> Drive and Greenfield Avenue. <br /> 111 <br />
