<br />\ <br /> <br />~l. Edinborough and Centennial Lakes <br />I' · Maplewood Community Center <br />. Shoreview Community Center <br /> <br />Member Rhody asked what process the Task Force has completed regarding the <br />trailer park. Keith Wietecki explained the process of the re-development. He <br />noted in 40 years, something win happen on this site. Whatever replaces or <br />improves the mobile home park must adhere to the Comprehensive Plan. The <br />Task Force is now taking public input from the residents and interest groups. <br /> <br />Member Olson asked why the VFW was included. <br /> <br />Member Wilke noted that the whole project would be completed in 40 years. <br />What is a timetable for the City Center? Mr. Wietecki noted that the Arona <br />building recreation center needs to be moved in 2-4 years and will include a <br />referendum. The schools are getting crowded, the meeting space is small, the <br />recreation center is deteriorating, the fire station is too small. The private <br />development is a much longer-term issue. <br /> <br />Member Cunningham asked how long it took to construct other centers. Mr. <br />Wietecki estimated 5-10 years. <br /> <br />Member Olson asked if there was enough space to add facilities to this site. Mr. <br />Wietecki noted higher buildings and ramps can be done but are expensive. The <br />public works building could be moved to a coordinated central location. <br /> <br />Chair Klausing asked why is it necessary? What purpose is there to amend the <br />Plan if no changes in land use will occur? Mr. Wietecki noted that the plan gives <br />time to decide what will be on the site in the future. It provides assurance of <br />future land use and zoning. <br /> <br />Member Egli asked for explanation of public input that will occur and has <br />occurred. Mr. Wietecki noted what meetings were held once per month. <br />Community discussions will begin again on May 20, 1999. He listed the <br />organizations that have already been invited. <br /> <br />A ten-minute break was taken. <br /> <br />Donna Hanson, mobile home park, '~"lS concerned about the time frame - when <br />will the mobile home park be bought? Keith Wietecki responded the reason for <br />the mobile home park inclusion is for a light-rail transit stop. The primary use <br />will include transit and higher density housing. The transit will be determined by <br />the legislative funding. <br /> <br />Chair Klausing noted that he was opposed to city acquisition of the mobile home <br />park because the Huberty site has higher priority as does the public works <br />
