Mike Wolf, 999 Larpenteur Avenue (adjacent property east of proposed development) Mr. Wolf spoke against the portion of the project proposing three townhomes that would abut current single-family residential properties, including his, and opined the negative impacts to those single-family homes. Mr. Wolf also spoke to his concerns related to environmental issues (i.e., lead and asbestos removal) and potential dust contaminants during construction, as well as those potential contaminants from the property's use as a greenhouse. Mr. Wolf concluded by speaking against the proximity of the proposed staging area to his property and the length of time he would be required to endure those detrimental impacts to his property. No one else appeared for or against. Mayor Klausing sought clarification from staff on how staging areas are usually restricted in consideration of neighbors. Mr. Welsh responded that construction times are enforced, and no building permits issued until all conditions were addressed satisfactorily, with staff working with the neighbors on these issues between the concept and final plan stages.
