He stated that additional broad questions were asked in regard to site location and feedback <br />was provided. He stated that now it is a matter of if the user would select this site and if the <br />price can be negotiated. He stated that the Council is attempting to look at this on a policy <br />standpoint of a business that would like to purchase land from the City and come into the <br />community. He stated that the Council is continuing to listen about the appropriateness of the <br />business in relation to other businesses. He believed that additional discussion will need to occur <br />before decisions can be made. He stated that because there is a business that would like to come <br />to Ramsey, they would like to continue the discussions. <br />Member Riley stated that the Council consensus was to continue to move forward, with some <br />people hesitant. <br />Chairperson Steffen agreed with that position. <br />Economic Development Authority/June 14, 2018 <br />Page 8 of 10 <br />
