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 ~ ''" • ^ ^' ^ ^•„ -„ <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 outiot 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 /> * 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 /> 9/25/00 <br />
