Case #3: Staff Update Waste Management is in the process of performing their own appraisal of their property; the City should have this appraisal by the end of February. Extension of Sunwood Drive has been delayed because of the wetland it would extend through. However, the City now has permission to extend the drive with a boxed culvert. Transwest was reviewed at the last EDA meeting. Attached to the agenda was the Sewer and Water Extension Feasibility Study for EDA members to review. At this time the MUSA line does not extend west of Rarnsey Boulevard to the area the study reflects. The MUSA can only be extended by an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. The City took procession of Gateway North Industrial Park (Makkens Property) on December 29, 2001. A printing company in Plymouth is looking at relocating to the southerly portion of the Park adjacent to the asphalt company. Amcon is considering a 50,000 square foot building in the northerly portion. Amcor is considering a series of expansions to their current facility. The City is currently negotiating with Dennis Sharp for a 50,000 - 60,000 square foot multi- tenant two-story building on the former Sauter Property. Higher standards for the building have been imposed because it will be a gateway to the City. Mr. Sharp has agreed to the higher standards for this building and is considering two additional single tenant buildings. The site plan will be brought to City Council on Tuesday, February 27, 2001.
