ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION—AUGUST 22, 2016 4 <br /> Further discussion ensued regarding the design, parking and layout of the entertainment district. <br /> Mayor Grant was in favor of the Council touring the Latitude 45 property to get an idea of the <br /> apartment complex that was being proposed for the Town Center. <br /> Mr. Lux welcomed the Council to visit this property stating he would be willing to provide the <br /> Councilmembers with a tour. <br /> Councilmember Holden questioned how the Master Developer was proposing to make the <br /> entertainment district vibrant. <br /> Mr. Lux stated the theater and restaurants would assist in creating a vibrant atmosphere. He <br /> noted a brewery would be a great fit for this area as well, along with the hotel. <br /> Councilmember Holden asked where the retail shops would be located. <br /> Mr. Lux explained this would not be in the downtown area. Rather, the Town Center would <br /> consist of entertainment type retail and neighborhood restaurants with apartments above. The <br /> retail acreage would now be located to the west. <br /> Councilmember Holden stated this was a whole new concept for the Council to consider. <br /> Mr. Shaver turned the discussion to the need to amend the building height. He reported this was <br /> being requested to accommodate a corporate campus and a taller condominium structure. <br /> Councilmember McClung questioned if the corporate campus would have structured parking. <br /> Mr. Shaver stated this would be the case. <br /> The Council discussed the corporate campus to be located on the thumb property with the Master <br /> Developer, along with the desire for Class A office space. <br /> Mayor Grant noted the thumb property was located along 35W and did have some separation <br /> from the residential developments. For this reason, he was willing to consider an amendment to <br /> the height requirements. He hoped to see a higher number of jobs on the thumb property and <br /> believed the corporate campus would create a buzz to the whole site that would spark the retail. <br /> Councilmember Wicklund was interested in knowing the ideal timeline for text and map <br /> changes to ensure the Town Center was brought to fruition quickly. <br /> Ms. Kvilvang reviewed the Comprehensive Plan Amendment process and stated it was the <br /> Master Developer's hope that these changes could be made by November. <br /> Councilmembers Wicklund and McClung also supported a change in the height restrictions for <br /> the thumb property. <br /> Councilmember Holden questioned what the new maximum height would be. <br />
