The study is being funded <br />by Ramsey County through a Critical Corridors Pre-Development Planning grant. The study is in response to <br />redevelopment interests for the site and findings from a recent market study (see attachment). The market study <br />has determined the study area may be more appropriate for a mix of uses that could include multifamily <br />residential housing, along with restaurant and retail uses. The study will explore redevelopment concepts and <br />phasing options to ensure redevelopment works in harmony with existing businesses and adjacent <br />neighborhoods. Recommendations will focus on redevelopment strategies that create a distinct and welcoming <br />place to attract people and businesses. <br /> <br />Discussion: <br />HKGi will be facilitating a work session to better understand City Council’s vision for the study area. They will <br />be supported by LOCi Consulting, who prepared the market study. The work session will be structured around <br />the following agenda items: <br />1.
