Regular City Council Meeting Monday, April ll, 2016 Page 44 and Larpenteur Avenues with meaningless windows along the building that may follow the letter but not the spirit of the intent. When those designs come before the City Council, Mayor Roe encouraged his colleagues to be cognizant of that in- tent. Prior to her time on the City Council, Councilmember Laliberte recognized the decision for urban design and buildings up to the street lines. However, Coun- cilmember Laliberte stated she was unsure if she was a huge fan of that option; and while not opposed, expressed concern that those buildings could interfere with sight lines and other issues. Councilmember Willmus clarified that building forward design was the result of significant discussions in 2008 through 2010, and while it ultimately often made him cringe, he remained willing to provide for some flexibility on proposals pre- sented that helped with area aesthetics. Mayor Roe closed discussion on SE Roseville for tonight, due to the lateness of the hour; and thanked audience members for staying for the discussion. Mayor Roe clarified that the purpose of tonight's discussion was not intended as a public hearing, but to make the public aware of City Council thoughts and a preliminary process moving forward. 17.
