<br />e <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - JANUARY 31, 2000 <br /> <br /> <br />r'~;';~ <br />.~i <br />~ <br /> <br />5 <br /> <br />MOTION: <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski moved and Councilmember Grant seconded a motion <br />to direct staff to establish a Task Force of no more than IS members including <br />representatives of the neighborhood, City staff and Council. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst clarified that the motion was for a Task Force to be put in place to look into the <br />development of a reconstruction project of the Ingerson neighborhood. Councilmember <br />Aplikowski agreed that the intent of the Task Force would be to discuss options or alternative <br />designs for the neighborhood. She was willing to amend her motion if other Councilmembers <br />felt that there should be more than 15 members on the Task Force. However, she felt that more <br />than IS members would be ineffective. <br /> <br />Councilmember Grant stated that involvement from the community was important. He felt that <br />the Task Force should consider the process for future projects as well. Councilmember <br />Aplikowski stated that she was troubled with charging the Task Force with this responsibility. <br />She suggested that once the Task Force has accomplished its goal for the Ingerson neighborhood, <br />the City should then reconsider the entire process. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst opened the meeting up to public comments. <br /> <br />Mr. Jim Cox, 1287 Ingerson Road, was opposed to the project because of the amount of money <br />being proposed for road reconstruction. He believes that when Ramsey County turned Ingerson <br />Avenue back to Arden Hills the road was to be usable for 10 to 12 more years. He felt that the <br />$2 million proposed to be spent on the Ingerson neighborhood could be better spent elsewhere. <br /> <br />Ms. Linda Swanson, 1124 Ingerson Road, presented a letter on behalf of the neighborhood core <br />group for consideration, reiterating the comments and concerns discussed by the residents at the <br />January 10, 2000 Public Hearing. The residents request that a motion be made and passed that <br />the Council postpone the Ingerson neighborhood roadway project and form a Task Force <br />comprised of residents, City staff and a Councilmember, to evaluate the Ingerson neighborhood <br />project and all related issues. <br /> <br />Ms. Swanson noted that she had attended the last Council worksession and it had been discussed <br />whether one Councilmember should be appointed to the Task Force, or if the Councilmember <br />appointment should be rotated. She felt that a rotating appointment of Councilmembers will <br />affect the continuity and consistency of the Task Force and asked that, if a Task Force is formed, <br />only one Councilmember be appointed. <br /> <br />Mr. Eric Lucht, 13l51ngerson Road, asked how the Task Force will be managed and if the <br />decisions of the Task Force will be binding. Mayor Probst stated that the City Council will <br />consider the recommendations of the Task Force and will make the final decisions. Mr. Lucht <br />asked if the decision made this evening regarding who will be appointed to the Task Force would <br />be final. Mayor Probst stated that the Council will not be appointing the Task Force this <br />evening. The intent was for those who are interested to express their interest to the City staff. <br />He noted that the motion on the table was for no more than 15 members and if more than this <br />number were interested in being appointed to the Task Force, decisions will need to be made on <br />whom to appoint. <br />
