City Administrator Ulrich stated that the bricks seem solid but noted that there are some wood <br />portions that need replacement. <br />Councilmember Riley stated that there has been discussion on Highway 10 signage and therefore <br />this seems appropriate, especially at a cost of $3,000. <br />Councilmember Kuzma stated that he likes the idea but stated that he would prefer the fonts on <br />the other sign proposals shown for the corridor compared to the proposal within this case. He <br />suggested changing the font or alignment for "City of' portion of the sign to be consistent with <br />the other signs. <br />The consensus of the Council was to direct staff to move forward on the sign, changing the <br />font/alignment of the "City of' portion of the sign to match the other proposed signs in the <br />corridor. <br />2.04: Update and Discussion Regarding NW COR Development Concepts <br />City Administrator Ulrich reviewed the staff report. <br />Councilmember Kuzma stated that he was vocal at the joint meeting in that he supports selling <br />the available property to a willing buyer, whether or not that business will compete with an <br />existing business. He stated that he believes that the businesses will help each other and would <br />agree in moving forward. <br />Councilmember Riley agreed with the comments of Councilmember Kuzma. <br />Councilmember Shryock stated that she likes the proposal but would prefer another location. <br />Councilmember Johns agreed with Councilmember Shryock's comments. <br />Acting Mayor LeTourneau confirmed the consensus of the Council to support this proposal <br />moving forward. <br />Councilmember Johns stated that she would want to ensure that Coborn's does not feel <br />threatened and the City is left only with an Aldi. She stated that it would be great if the <br />businesses complement each other. <br />Acting Mayor LeTourneau stated that he was present at the Corborn's meeting and the statement <br />was made that the business is not afraid of competition and would continue to invest in their <br />business in Ramsey. <br />Councilmember Riley stated that in his opinion this is not an issue of liking or not liking <br />Coborn's or Aldi but having available land and a willing buyer. <br />City Council Work Session / June 12, 2018 <br />Page 6 of 8 <br />
