.� � � CJ Plannin Office Hours g November 5, 1986 Page 2 I talked about dedication of land, development requirements, and procedures. I�uggested they hire someone to prepare a site plan for early staff consideration. I am pleased that these owners propose to tear down the old building which would be very difficult to make work well for any good reuse, because its location prevents e�ficient parking area development. 4. Scott, 623-0153 � Mike Sc�tt, attorney, was in with Robert Larson and Chris Galle, develop�rs who are laoking for development possi- bilities in Roseville, particularty for re�ail development. I reviewed the Comprehensive Plan and Tax Increment Plan, suggesting potential sites. Craig Waldron reviewed economic development policy and potent�al. 5. Matthews, 483-3233 Mark Matt�ews was in with Mary Vidas t� discuss landscape plans for the development of t�� parking area on the Group W site. They showed us a rather minimal plan and I sug�ested that, based on our previous conversations, they were going to do the mor� elaborate plan reviewed prior to th� Pla�ning Commis�ion and C��ncil meetings. This was on the supposi- tion tha� the drainag� cauld b� han�led by the construction of a swaTe to the sou�h�ast cor��r of the site, which was approved b� the City. I then r��iewed the m�r� elaboxa�e plan, suggesting that it be implemented by the preparation of a topographical grading plan indicating the lncation, h�igh� af the bexms, a�id the planting. T sugqested the berm be thre� �eet high, and that the num�rous fir trees indicated s�ould be planted at four feet high. I sugg�sted �he flowering cr��s �ould be reduced by appxoximately one-third, inasmuch as it is the coniferous planting which will be the most �ffective for screening purposes. They will re�urn with a revi��d pla� for staff review. 6, Hampton Inns, �71-6395 Jam�s B�rtlett, Dave Phillips, a�d Mike Kline, the latter being architects at 391-3018, were in. They are interested in locating Hamgton Znn's franchises and are reviewing gotential iocations in Roseville. I emphasized the stra�egic advantages of the Ruan s�te, and showed t�em the previously prepared Dillon Inn proposal. I discuss�d other options for location, r�vie�ing the positive and negativ� features. I �ncouraged them to pursue a Rose- ville location, emphasizing the oth�r ancillary qualities of the community. They will cor.tinue to i�vestigate and get back to us in the near futur�.
