ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION—MAY 31, 2016 5 <br /> Councilmember McClung believed it would be important to have an anchor to draw people to <br /> this retail site. <br /> Further discussion ensued regarding the proper size and grocer for this project. <br /> Councilmember Holden questioned how the grocery store would be tied to the Town Center. <br /> Mr. Stutz believed this would hinge on how the development was laid out and connected in order <br /> to make the site walkable. <br /> Councilmember Wicklund asked if structured parking was being considered for the Town <br /> Center. It was his opinion that structured parking would be attractive to visitors. <br /> Mr. Shaver commented this was being considered. <br /> Ms. Kvilvang asked if the 20 acres of land was enough to create an anchored retail space. <br /> Mr. Shaver believed 200,000 to 250,000 square feet of space would be enough. He stated it <br /> would be important to tie this retail to the Town Center. <br /> Councilmember Holmes understood that boutique type stores were having a hard time competing <br /> with Amazon. For this reason, she supported other big box type stores in this area. <br /> Mr. Shaver recommended that store names be discussed further after the market studies were <br /> complete. <br /> Ms. Kvilvang explained the City's biggest concern with this development was the retail/ <br /> commercial portion of the development. She indicated the long-term success of this area was <br /> critical to the entire development. <br /> Mr. Lux thanked the Council for their time and for the discussion held this evening. He indicated <br /> he and his team would continue working and focusing on the success of this development. <br /> 2.
