REQUEST FOR HRA ACTION DATE: 05/18/04 ITEM NO: 7.b. Director Approval: Agenda Section: CB ACTION Adoption of the McCarrons Neighborhood Master Plan (HF 0008) Item Description: 1.0 Background 1.1At the April HRA meet Mr. Dennis Guptil, owner of the property within the McCarrons Neighborhood Master Plan at 185 N. McCarrons presented a development schedule and discussed possible development options with the HRA. Mr. Guptil and his partner Ron VanRipper, Partner of Coldwell Banker have subsequently met with the City of Roseville planning staff to discuss the land use process, timing and required materials needed for review.
