L� � for response to the Met Council. Their general concerns are that although the traffic studies addressed the local circulation and traffic generation, they do not analyze the impact of the Metropolitan System (Snelling Avenue, Trunk Highway 36, 35W, etc . ) . Mr. Jopke also noted that the comprehensive plan amendment for the Pavilion Place expansion has not been approved as per letter dated November 3, 1989 from the Metro Council. Concerns relate to the impact on the Metropolitan Council system. In general, the Metropolitan Council staff is concerned about the fact that the accrued impact of the four recent major changes have not been accumulated for impact analysis. Thes� � Twin Lakes area stud development include a y, expansion of Rosedale, the construction of Rosedale Marketplace and the expansion of Pavilion Place. Mr. Koski also noted that all cities are required to submit to the � Metropolitan Council an amended comprehensive transportation plan in 1990. A request has been made to extend that date to January 10, 1991. With respect to Pavilion Place plan amendment, Mr. Jopke will get in touch with the Welsh Companies and their consultant and request a time extension from the Metropolitan Council staff. It is most important that this plan amendment be approved in as much as the land has been zoned and application for building permits will be pending soon. Permits to remove the existing housing have been issued and largely accomplished. 3. LeTendre (633-6312) George LeTendre was in with Danny Commers and Mr. Schneidermann (furniture store owner) to review the presentations and drawings prepared by their architect illustrating final proposals for the rezoning and approval of the site, special use permit for site plan approval for the next Council meetin . advice regarding the additional improvements thath anr euemade within the context of their proposal. They agreed that the building would be completely renovated on the exterior within two years, with approximately 3/4 of the building being done initi�ally. We suggested that they build a new screen in front of the meters on the south side of the buildin wooden fence) and that the stucco be applied wl.th a cseries of control joints at appropriate locations, which we feel would make the building more attractive (and less conducive to cracking). They also agreed to dedicate additional land requested as a condition to the approval. It was also understood that they achieve their long range plan of acquiring the buildin conversion of more of the area to retail, that they g would entirely redo the west side of the structure and remove the existing electrical poles and services. When and if this is done, the entire west side will change in design and function, and thus, renovation of this site �;ill be essential. 4. Alwan (484-1G84)
