<br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - January 28,2008 <br /> <br />5 <br /> <br />Mr. Russ Adams, Director, Alliance for Metropolitan Stability, stated the expectation of <br />residents is that they were still in negotiations. He commented that no amount of <br />compensation to the residents of Arden Hills would give them what they need to remain <br />in Arden Hills. He explained the premise of the proposed resolution presented to Council. <br />He urged Council to understand this could be the opening for the future of Arden Manor <br />Manufactured Home Park as an R4 district. He pointed out that TCAAP includes no <br />viable plan to replace affordable housing. He stated a housing replacement policy is <br />needed in Arden Hills. He urged the Council not to give away the strongest leverage <br />position. <br /> <br />Mr. John Van Buren, 4276 Colleen Circle, commented on the housing market, access to <br />roadways, additional traffic from TCAAP, safety, and traffic detouring through the <br />neighborhoods. He urged Council to vote on behalf of the current residents who voted <br />each of them into office. <br /> <br />Ms. Effinger presented a proposed concept plan developed by Mr. D. R. Santerra for <br />review by staff. <br /> <br />Mr. Chris V osbeek, 1553 Briarknoll Drive, stated the citizens deserve a reply from <br />Council and to be heard.
