This was a <br />much needed improvement and I was pleased that it was finally fixed. However, I found it <br />humorous that two weeks prior the County had two crews working overtime on a Saturday <br />with a total of about seven employees to restripe the crosswalks at these intersections and <br />then two weeks later the crosswalks are milled up and paved over. <br /> <br />* A meeting was held with John Trautz from Reliance Development on Wednesday. Mr. <br />Trautz has made an offer for an option on all of the commercial property along Main Street <br />from the County Bank location to 20th Avenue. This property is currently owned by R + R <br />Leasing. Mr. Trautz believes that at some point in time this location would be ideal for a <br />grocery store anchored strip mall. Mr. Trautz believed that the asking price for the property <br />is out of line with surrounding commercial property. Mr. Trautz believes that a grocery <br />store of about 45,000 square feet would be competitive at the location. Reliance <br />Development just completed the new Kowalski's store in Woodbury and they are currently <br />constructing a small strip mall on the outlot across from Target in Vadnais Heights. Mr. <br />Trautz is going to continue to talk to the property owner and discuss the location with <br />corporate grocery chains. Reliance has been looking at the property for the last two years. <br />Mr. Trautz was concerned that the area may not have enough residential density to make <br />the timing right for a commercial development at this time. <br /> <br />* I received a phone call from Mike Quigley of Gor-em development yesterday. They <br />would like to know if the City would like a full size tennis court at the sport court location in <br />Eagle Park. Mr. Quigley was going to plan on trying to attend the next park and recreation <br />committee meeting. He also mentioned that they were continuing to work on a sketch plan <br />for the outlots in Eagle Pass. He did not mention any timeline for when we may actually <br />see this sketch plan. <br /> <br />9/25/00 <br />
