Draft EDC Minutes Sept 19, 2014 Page 3 of 3 7. REPORTS OF COMMISSIONERS Commissioner Birken reported that the County had approved a “right in” access from County Road 10 into the BioLife development. Originally the County had denied any access from County Road 10 out of concerns for safety. Chair Belting reported that Tim Roche, President of the Twin Cities North Chamber of Commerce, has taken a new position elsewhere, and that the Chamber had appointed a new president. Commissioner Larson reported that the current street project was coming along great. Administrator Ericson reported that the weather had put us behind schedule a bit but agreed things were coming along well. Commissioner Stevenson reported that the mounds View Lions would be holding a “Spaghetti Dinner” fund raiser on October 7, 2014, at the Kraus-Hartig VFW in Spring Lake Park. Commissioner Birken asked if there were any updates on the TCAAP project. Administrator Ericson reported that the County and Arden Hills had rebranded the site as “Rice Creek Commons” and that more information will be made available in the coming months. Commissioner Birken wondered whether the transportation improvements associated with the TCAAP project would create an opportunity to replace signage for County Road 10. Administrator Ericson responded that at every opportunity to push the issue, the City is always exploring ways to address the County Road 10 name and signage needs. Chair Belting again expressed his support for moving ahead with the hire of Brian Beeman. 8. NEXT REGULAR EDC MEETING – October 17, 2014 9.
