<br />Item No. 15 <br />Meeting Date: December 4th, 2000 <br />Type of Business: WK <br />WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; <br />CA: Consent Agenda; EDA: EDA Business <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Mounds View Mayor and City Council <br />From: Jim Ericson, Community Development Director <br />Item Title/Subject: Fiskars Request to Sublease Building A of Mounds View Business Park to <br />Saturn Transportation <br />Date of Report: December 1, 2000 <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Saturn Transportation, is interested in moving corporate offices, warehousing operation, and fleet of <br />semi-trailers to Mounds View Business Park Building A. Currently, the property is located within a <br />Planned Unit development and leased to Fiskars Inc. through December 31, 2006. Accordingly, the <br />prospective tenant hopes to sublease the property. The building’s location is illustrated below: <br /> <br /> <br />Saturn is a trucking company with a fleet of semi-trailers that would be parked on site (as many as <br />35 at a time.) Based on the uses originally envisioned in the business park, staff felt that a truck- <br />intensive business was not appropriate for the business park, which was not established with <br />trucking and freight terminals in mind. Originally, the business park was developed for such uses as <br />MultiTech, Liberty Check, limited warehouse uses, and other technology and office-based <br />businesses.
