<br /> <br />~ <br />EN HILLS <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />January 27,2003 <br /> <br />Senator Mark Dayton <br />United States Senate <br />Wasnington DC 20510 <br /> <br />RE: The United States Postal Service's Request of TCAAP Property for a Potential 82-Acre <br />Distribution Facility <br /> <br />Dear Senator Dayton: <br /> <br />The City of Arden Hills recently received a copy of the letter from the U.S. Postal Service to the <br />GSA, indicating their potential interest in acquiring an 82-acre site within TCAAP. The intended <br />use for this site has been described as a consolidated distribution facility. <br /> <br />On Friday, January 17, our development team, planning consultant, and staff presented <br />information to the council indicating the detrimental impacts such a use could have on <br />fulfillment ofthe Vento Plan. We are requesting a meeting with representatives of the Post . <br />Office to discuss the exact nature oftheir interest and to inform them of our concerns. These <br />include the fact that the initial location indicated by the Post Office is among the least polluted, <br />highest visibility sites within the entire project area. Further, our development team is concerned <br />that such a use would render the redevelopment of this property uneconomical. Please contact us <br />if you are interested in seeing mote detailed information from the meeting of January 17. <br /> <br />Thank you for your assistance and consideration with this project. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Beverly Aplikowski <br />Mayor of Arden Hills <br /> <br />CC: Senator Norm Coleman <br />Representative Betty McCollwn <br />Arden Hills City Council and City Administrator Joe Lynch <br />Mr. Gleun Rotundo, GSA Deputy Regional Administrator <br />Mr. Ralph Conner, GSA Senior Advisor <br />Mr. Joseph Wnitaker, Deputy Assistant Secretary oftne Army <br />Mr. David Eales, United States Postal Service <br />CRR, Inc. <br />DSU <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />City of Arden Hills . 1245 West Highway 96 .
