<br />when Allina Health Systems was interested in building a facility no larger that 40,000 square <br />foot. <br /> <br />Staff discussed with the Council the interest of acquiring the five-acre medical clinic site in <br />Ramsey contingent upon a certain amount of square footage of construction in the Town Center. <br />City Council urged staffto work with a number in the range of 135,000 square feet. <br /> <br />5) County Medical Examiner Facility <br /> <br />The City has received a request from Anoka County regarding interest of locating a medical <br />examinations facility for the County Coroner in the Ramsey Town Center. The request is to seek <br />assistance to locate an 11,000 square foot facility in the Ramsey Town Center. After review of <br />the letter, the Council noted that the letter did not indicate a request for financial assistance, <br />rather only requesting assistance in locating a facility in the Ramsey Town Center. Staff was <br />directed to work with County Officials in locating a building in the Ramsey Town Center. <br /> <br />7) Crestview Senior Community Grant Rejection <br /> <br />As Council is aware, Crest View Senior Communities has planned to build a senior community <br />in the Ramsey Town Center. As part of the project, Crest View has made an application to <br />secure a HUD 202 Funding Grant. In 2005, Crest View made a similar grant application but the <br />application was rejected due to a technical problem. One of the major issues was the fact that <br />there are propane tanks near the first facility located on T.R. #10. The acceptable distance for <br />the propane tanks is 240 feet for the building and 1,150 feet for people. The propane tanks on <br />T.H. #10 are located too close and are causing difficulties for the Crest View Senior Housing <br />Project. <br /> <br />After a brief discussion, the City Council directed staff to write a letter of support for Crest View <br />to take a stand that the City will aggressively work to relocate the propane facilities and mitigate <br />the health hazard for the Crest View Senior Housing project. <br /> <br />ADJOURN <br /> <br />The Ramsey Town Center Work Session adjourned at 8:28 p.m. <br /> <br />Res ctfully SUb~ <br /> <br /> <br />.
