ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION—AUGUST 17, 2015 10 Councilmember McClung recommended that the screen showing the Target in Shoreview be removed so as not to mislead people into thinking that the Target is located in Arden Hills. In addition, he requested a completed shot of the apartments on County Road F. Councilmember Holmes added that the YMCA was also shown and this was not in Arden Hills. Mayor Grant was not concerned with the Target shot as it is located extremely close to the Arden Hills border. Community Development Director Hutmacher reported that businesses value having nearby service retail for their employees. Mayor Grant questioned what the EDC thought of the video. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that several font changes were made. The EDC would like the video to be shorter, but this would require something to be cut. Councilmember Holmes did not believe the video should be shortened or changed. Community Development Director Hutmacher questioned if the video should be posted on the City's website or if it should be unveiled at the State of the City. Councilmember Holmes was in favor of showing the video at the State of the City, but recommended that it also be placed on the website as soon as possible. The Council was in agreement. 2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES Councilmember Holmes requested the Council review the City's antenna policy to be consistent with the City Attorney's suggestions. Councilmember Holmes asked if the Old City Hall property should be discussed by the Council at a future work session. Mayor Grant was also interested in discussing the Old City Hall property. Councilmember McClung was interested in discussing the sale of this property as well. He believed that the timing of the sale would be important as TCAAP develops. Mayor Grant commented that the City of Roseville seems to have planted a number of trees along County Road C. These trees are growing really well and have watering bags on them. He recommended that staff closely monitor the City's newly planted trees to ensure that they are properly watered. Mayor Grant stated that he was pleased with the progress being made on County Road E.
