new development. He provided further comment on corporate campuses that he had <br />completed through the metro area. <br /> <br />Mr. Lux believed the key to this development would not be just building buildings. Rather, it <br />was about attracting residents, along with the best and the brightest employees that want to <br />work in Arden Hills. In addition, the infrastructure of parks and open spaces was of such <br />importance. <br /> <br />Todd Stutz, Tradition Development Corporation, discussed the construction that has been <br />completed by his team and stated Robert Thomas Homes, Hanson Builders, Pratt Homes and <br />Gonyea Homes would be working with Alatus on this project. He noted he has an ongoing <br />relationship with the environmental consultant that worked on TCAAP. He felt blessed to be a <br />part of the overall team. He appreciated the efforts of the JDA, the City Council and the County <br />in drafting the Redevelopment Code, a Master Plan, along with a strict set of architectural <br />design guidelines and development standards. Further discussion ensued regarding several <br />developments that he has been a part of throughout the metro area. He discussed the <br />importance of having a variety of builders on the project and believed that Alatus had <br />assembled a great team with homebuilding experience in the north metro for this venture. <br /> <br />Mr. Lux believed the neighborhoods completed by Todd had a unique look and feel than any <br />others in the metro area. <br /> <br />Mary Bak, Kinzie Real Estate Services, thanked the JDA for their time and stated she was excited <br />to be a part of this project. She explained she had worked for 28 years as a community <br />development director and discussed her experience with the 11,000 acre Glenview Naval Air <br />Station redevelopment. She appreciated the TCAAP Redevelopment Code along with the vision <br />that had been provided by the City. She commented further on her experience with multi- <br />jurisdictional planning which was conducted through the Glenview Naval Air Station <br />redevelopment. <br /> <br />Mr. Lux stated it would be important for TCAAP to tie into the rest of Arden Hills. He wanted to <br />see the site be inclusive to the remainder of the City and not be an island onto its own. He then <br />further introduced himself to the JDA and discussed his work history. He stated he has been in <br />development for the last 30 years. He noted several large developments he had been a part of <br />throughout the metro area. He hopes condominiums would be a part of the TCAAP <br />development. He looked forward to taking on this challenging project. <br /> <br />Mr. Lux explained how his team would approach this project in the first six months noting a <br />development agreement would have to be reached, along with refining market research and a <br />business plan. Schedules for development would be drafted and a project community center <br />would be built. This community center would serve as a project office and town center for the <br />development. He believed this building would provide a look and feel of the coming <br />development. He indicated he would begin to address the sustainable elements for the <br />development and teams would be brought together to begin brand development. He stated
