Mr. Lawabni stated this development requires a lot of coordination overseas, and the faster they <br />can receive approval from the Council it will help them move forward. They are hoping to break <br />ground in April. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated he has talked with several people from different commissions about this <br />development, and the comments of the Planning Commission regarding this development were <br />very good. This is a very important part of the City and Town Center, and there wilt be very <br />good cooperation with this development from the City. Fine planning has gone into this <br />development and the City is very enthused. <br /> <br />Councilmember Jeffrey stated he is excited about this development. It will be a great anchor for <br />Town Center. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Jeffrey, seconded by Councilmember Cook, to approve preliminary <br />site plan for Asissi Restaurant/Nightclub: Case of National Growth, LLC, contingent upon the <br />Staff Review Letter dated October 27, 2005, revised November 18, 2005. <br /> <br />Further discussion: Councilmember Elvig inquired about the planned security at the nightclub. <br />Mr. Lawabni replied the insurance company has asked the same question. They are planning on <br />having a top notch security company. Ms. Anderson expressed concern that they are receiving <br />comments from engineering staff regarding outstanding issues related to curbs, roads and <br />landscaping, which is information they do not have. She expressed concern with the possibility <br />of not receiving final plat in December due to these outstanding issues. Community <br />Development Director Trudgeon indicated staff will need to do some hustling to be certain that <br />everything is taken care of by the December 13th Council meeting. He suggested the preliminary <br />plat and final plat could both be considered at the December 13th meeting, as this is a fairly <br />simple plat. Mayor Gamec noted this procedure has been followed with a few other plats, and it <br />should not be a problem with this site. Community Development Director Trudgeon explained <br />the trickier part of the site related to things such as the edges, landscaping, utilities feeding into <br />the property, and the streets. This becomes complicated because there are two different <br />developers with National Growth within the lines and Ramsey Town Center developing the area <br />with public utilities and roads. The final plat documents for utilities and roads still needs to be <br />coordinated by Ramsey Town Center, and staff will assist in getting that accomplished. Mayor <br />Gamec stated the City is behind this project. He directed staff to do whatever they can to move <br />this project along faster. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Jeffrey, Cook, Elvig, Olson, <br />Pearson, and Strommen. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Case #12: <br /> <br />Consider Approval of Acquisition of Easements for the NW Trunk Sanitary <br />Sewer Extension <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski reviewed that the City Council selected the alignment of the NW Trunk <br />Sanitary Sewer extension on April 12, 2005.
