A~enda Items <br /> a. Unisource Proposal <br /> Unisource has contacted Staff regarding a potential development in the Gateway <br /> Business District. Mr. Ringwald's memorandum provides background on the <br /> proposal and the Company. The Company would like to meet with the Council to <br /> discuss Arden Hills interest in allowing this development to occur. <br /> The proposal does not meet the current zoning regulations outlined in the GBD <br /> Zoning District. However, the Company has indicated that this location is <br /> important to its operations and is willing to discuss building and site amenities <br />-- which would allow the building to "look" like something other than a warehouse. <br /> rd like the Council to consider discussing only the business and building design <br /> issues under this first Agenda item. Staff would like to discuss the general zoning <br /> standards of the GBD and how these standards impact Unisource under Agenda <br /> item "f'. <br /> b. Newsletter <br />- Mr. Hoelscher has not completed a City newsletter (Town Crier) for several <br />-~ months. Over the past week, Councilmember Aplikowski has discussed this with <br /> Mr. Hoelscher and may have some insight on his intentions. <br />- <br />- StatT is concerned about the lack of a Newsletter and the ability to effectively <br /> communicate to the residents. I would like the Council to review its options and <br />- consider a new direction for the use of the Newsletter. <br />I c. Karth Lake Pumping Project <br /> Several weeks ago the Council reminded Staff that additional follow~up was <br />I necessary in regards to the Karth Lake Pumping Project. The idea was to send a <br /> letter to the residents describing the options available to the City and residents. <br /> Staff has prepared a letter to provide to the residents but would like further <br />I clarification from the Council on its philosophy of project costs and history of this <br />.' problem. <br />. <br />
