ROSEVILLE PROPOSED REZONING (REVISED) F resented by THE HOUSING ALLIANCE The open site at 500 West County Road B in Roseville has been selected by seven Roseville Lutheran Churches and Lyngblomsten as the site for a proposed elderly housing development. Lyngblomsten is a nonprofit health service and management organization representing 25 Lutheran churches in the metro area. The Roeseville Lutheran Church, on behalf of seven Roseville Lutheran churches and Lyngblomsten, selected The housing Alliance, Inc. of Minneapolis to represent them in developing the project. The architect will be Arvid Elness Architects, Inc. who are very experienced in the planning and design of similar facilities. The selected contractor is McGough Construction of Roseville who has worked with both the architect and Lyngblomsten in the past. Financing will be arranged by Williams Financial Services who are a division of Williams Steel and Hardware serving the area since 1860. The property is currently in control by The Housing Alliance, but ultimately will become the property of the Home Owners Association that will own and occupy the facility. Lyngblomsten will remain with the facility after it is complete as the management organization providing services and programs to the residents. The sponsoring churches will assist in the planning process and offer this alternative housing to their membership and community as a whole. The neighborhood adjacent to the site is composed of park land on the south and west sides, multi family housing on the north side and single family homes on the east side. Lyngblomsten and the churches informally surveyed the neighborhood for general acceptance of the concept before finalizing their selection of the site.
