1 <br />CITY OF LINO LAKES <br />ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT <br />ADVISORY COMMITTEE <br />MINUTES <br /> <br />DATE: May 5, 2016 <br /> <br />MEMBERS <br />PRESENT: Nathan Vojtech, Don Johnson, Lou Masonick, Thomas Colgan <br /> <br />MEMBERS <br />ABSENT: Chad Wagner, Julie Schwartz, Rebecca Glewwe, Tami Wier <br /> <br /> <br />OTHERS PRESENT: Michael Grochala, Alex McKenzie <br /> <br /> <br />APPROVAL OF MINUTES <br /> <br />It was moved by Lou Masonick to approve the minutes of January 7, 2016, March 3, 2016 and <br />April 7, 2016. The Motion was seconded by Nathan Vojtech and passed unanimously. <br /> <br /> <br />PROPOSED WAREHOUSE/DISTRIBUTION FACILITY – 35E CORRIDOR <br />Mr. Grochala and staff have been working with United Properties on construction of a large <br />industrial warehousing/distribution facility along 35E. The applicant is proposing the site be <br />rezoned to Planned Unit Development (PUD) to accommodate storage of semi-trailers on site. <br />The applicant is requesting assistance in the form of Tax Increment Financing. 21st Ave. near the <br />site will need to be reconstructed due to poor soils and increase use in trucks. The road project is <br />proposed to begin in 2017, with negotiations between the city and developer underway. The <br />proposed groundbreaking of the site is August, but the applicant could still move to another <br />cheaper location in Centerville. <br /> <br />UPDATING THE ECONOMIC DEVLEOPMENT BUSINESS SUBSIDY CRITERIA <br />Mr. Grochala explained the Economic Development Authority Business Subsidy Criteria has not <br />been updated since 2003, and is in need to be revised due to changes in state law. Most of the <br />updates are minor word reconsideration such as adding EDA in phrases. There was discussion <br />Mr. Grochala asked the members opinion on Section 3.02, subset C, that states a requirement of <br />a minimum number of jobs that must be created, to be eligible for the program. A few of the <br />members brought up the point not to discourage small businesses from seeking assistance. May <br />need to review on a case to case basis, but a minimum may be required. There will be more <br />discussion in the future and Mr. Grochala will come back with more recommendations.
