COUNCIL COMMENTS <br /> <br />Mayor Grant requested an update from Nick Roberts. <br /> <br />Nick Roberts, Roberts Management Group, provided an update on the Red Fox Business Center. <br />He discussed the tenants that would be moving into this center. He hoped to have a ribbon cutting <br />ceremony in the future. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes questioned when Phase II of Lexington Station would begin. <br /> <br />Mr. Roberts reported that he was beginning to engage in conversations with architects regarding <br />Phase II at Lexington Station. He stated that Phase II would include the redevelopment of the <br />30,000 square foot industrial building at 1140 Red Fox Road. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant asked if the Phase II would have a similar feel to Phase I. <br /> <br />Mr. Roberts indicated that this was the plan. He wanted both phases to have the same look and <br />feel.

He indicated that the Council could elect to appoint two alternates. He stated that <br />staff could review this further and would report back to the Council. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant explained that he received an email from John Gibbons in London regarding the <br />Friendship Field. He wanted to make staff aware that he was not able to send emails to Mr. <br />Gibbons because they kept bouncing back as being undeliverable. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant reported that the Arden Hills Foundation recently met and there were a number of <br />items discussed. He discussed the items that would be donated to the public.
