The remaining building slabs are also being <br />removed and the concrete processed into aggregate. <br /> <br />Energy Study <br />Ramsey County has chosen a consultant for the TCAAP Energy Plan. The consultant’s name <br />will be announced once the contract is finalized. The Energy Advisory Board will begin meeting <br />in September, and a white paper is expected to be presented to the Joint Development Authority <br />in November. <br /> <br />TCAAP Website <br />Ramsey County will be redesigning the County’s TCAAP website which currently can be found <br />at www.tcaap.net. The new website will go live in early 2015 and will provide information on <br />marketing, infrastructure, remediation, the Joint Development Authority, and other topics. <br />Public documents related to remediation and development will be made available through this <br />website, either through a direct post or a link. <br /> <br />Rice Creek Commons <br />Ramsey County announced that Rice Creek Commons has been chosen as the marketing name <br />for the TCAAP site. The name was chosen because it highlights the site’s location adjacent to <br />Rice Creek and its proximity to both downtowns. Whether the name will be the official name <br />going forward is unclear at this time. Developers have indicated that it will be important to <br />rebrand the property due to negative connotations associated with the TCAAP name. <br /> <br />Future Meeting Schedule <br />Special and regular City Council work session meetings have been scheduled to discuss issues <br />related to the Master Plan and City infrastructure. Discussion topics are tentatively planned as <br />follows: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> MEMORANDUM
