EDC Minutes <br />August 24, 2011 <br />Page 4 of 4 <br />This topic will be discussed in greater detail at a future EDC meeting so that the EDC's feedback <br />can be conveyed to FPAC. <br />4. UPDATES <br />A. TCAAP & Other Projects <br />The August 4, 2011, stadium open house attracted twenty -seven Arden Hills residents, which is <br />about one -third of the total number of people in attendance. The event was well- received by <br />attendees. The most common comments were that people do not want public funding to support <br />the stadium and they would prefer to have park space on the site. <br />The City has not been contacted by the County or Vikings since the meeting. There are still a lot <br />of unknowns. The costs and benefits of development depend on what you are comparing it to. <br />The EDC reviewed a map of the County's proposed stadium - related transportation <br />improvements. <br />B. Commission Members <br />None. <br />C. Council Liaison <br />None. <br />D. Staff Comments <br />Council will vote on the Select Senior Living development agreement at their next meeting. <br />Staff asked EDC members to consider a monthly meeting schedule. Some monthly meetings <br />may be cancelled, but more frequent meetings would be helpful to keep economic development <br />projects moving forward in a timely manner. Staff will poll EDC members on potential meeting <br />dates. <br />5. ADJOURNMENT <br />The meeting adjourned at 5:32 p.m. <br />Minutes approved by: <br />Ed von Holtum, Chair Jill Hutmacher <br />Community Development Director <br />
