Mr. Eaton said yes. Mayor Kuzma asked if they would sell this parcel or rent it. Mr. Eaton noted it would depend on the user. He said they would be open to keeping the parcel and renting it; however, if they found a good user,they would be open to selling the parcel. Councilmember Specht shared he is very excited about this as it is a good fit for the area. Councilmember Woestehoff noted that the Aldi agreement states there cannot be any auto repair shops in the area. He asked if there has been any consideration for this. City Administrator Hagen explained they have been working with Aldi on this and so far, they have not been told `no' by Aldi. He noted that Aldi's perspective on not wanting an auto repair shop in the area had to do with spare parts and damaged vehicles in the area. He added that Aldi will have to sign off on this use and the use on the remnant parcel. Councilmember Musgrove asked if Aldi would have to sign off on the sale of the remnant parcel. City Administrator Hagen noted that Aldi would have to sign off on the use, not necessarily the sale. He explained that when Take 5 would sell off the remnant parcel, they would have to go through the platting process with the City and they would have to check in with Aldi before they started reviewing site plans. He added that when the structure is built and sold to a new user down the road, the City would not have to give pre-approval; however, Aldi would likely be the ones making the City aware of the new owner so that Aldi and the City can review the new use together. Councilmember Musgrove asked if they have any call back on the remnant parcel apart from Take 5. City Administrator Hagen said they are one parcel and there is nothing in the concept plan that is forcing Take 5 to build a second building on the remnant parcel. He noted that if the City really wanted to see a second building on the remnant parcel then they would want to look at platting this now and having the City hold onto the smaller parcel; however, this is not needed.
