ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL—OCTOBER 11, 2021 9 <br /> Dan Terwilliger, Launch Properties, stated he has looked into this and with the purchase price it <br /> does not make financial sense to have only an Aldi building. He indicated this was the reason the <br /> developer was asking for flexibility to allow the two buildings. He explained he has been working <br /> on this site for over a year and a half. <br /> Mayor Grant requested a roll call vote. <br /> A roll call vote was taken. The motion to deny Planning Case 21-019 for a <br /> Preliminary Plat, Final Plat, Master Planned Unit Development, and Site Plan <br /> Review at 3737 Lexington Avenue and 1133 Grey Fox Road carried 3-1 <br /> (Councilmember Scott opposed). <br /> City Attorney Jamnik explained he would draft the Findings of Fact to support the denial and <br /> the Council would be asked to ratify these findings at its October 25, 2021 City Council meeting. <br /> 10.
