<br /> I <br /> I- <br /> I Kevin Ringwald, Community Development Director, is currently working on the <br /> goals necessary as part of the Livable Communities Act. He is analyzing five <br /> I different options. The Council would like detailed information relating to these <br /> options prior to taking action on the goals. <br /> I Terry Post, City Accountant, indicated the residents of Arden Hills have received <br /> their Truth and Taxation Hearing notices. Based on available infonnation, it <br /> appears most residents will experience an increase in market valuation and a <br /> I decrease in overall taxation. <br /> Cindy Walsh, Parks & Recreation Director, indicated the Parks and Recreation <br /> I Newsletter will be issued in the beginning of December. She has not heard from <br /> Jon Hoelscher regarding the latest Town Crier. Ms. Aplikowski was concerned <br /> I that Mr. Hoelscher was expecting some follow-up from the City. <br /> Agenda Item #5 <br /> I Council Comments <br /> Mayor Probst recognized the residents in attendance and asked if they had any <br /> specific issues of concern. No one had any comments. <br /> I. Mayor Probst indicated the City should be more assertive regarding the Highway <br /> 96 project. He requested that Councilmembers share their goals with him <br /> I regarding the upcoming year and any recommendations for Committee <br /> appointments. He also expressed thanks to the volunteers of the Committees and <br /> suggested that Holiday Cards be mailed to each of them. <br /> I Councilmember Malone indicated that he had read that Amoco was interested in <br /> serving food, along with its automotive facility. Staff should investigate the <br /> I relationship of this proposed use in relationship to the zoning ordinance. <br /> I Councilmember Hicks expressed concern regarding TCAAP and the apparent <br /> influence of other cities such as Shoreview. The U ofM property in Shoreview <br /> has not received the same level of scrutiny as the arsenal. If open space was <br /> I necessary the U ofM site also offered opportunities to provide that use and may <br /> have been more easily transferred for that type of use. <br /> I Councilmember Aplikowski indicated she was concerned with the Town Crier <br /> Newsletter and would attempt to get that back on track. <br /> I Motion to adjourn at 7:45 PM. <br /> I- <br /> I <br />
