PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES <br />May 20,2002 <br />Page 33 of 22 <br />needs to know if the concept is moving in the right direction. <br />Smith questioned who should drive the process. <br />Gaffron noted that the City should give the developer direction, which they have, and many things need to <br />be done in the interim. <br />Hawn informally asked how many of the Commissioners were comfortable with this grocery and parking <br />plan. None of them were. She continued, by asking how many would be comfortable with a grocery store <br />on die scale of a small box type with adequate parking, and a traffic study which supports it. <br />Lindahl reiterated Landforms desire to define the specific square footage they could accommodate in <br />order to move the process to Council. <br />GafSron reiterated that no clear vote on any size grocery has been made and repeated that this is still <br />unresolved. He stated that what has been approved is residential south of Kelley Parkway, and retail that <br />does not have to be accessory to anything, but the intent is that it supports the walkable community. <br />Mabusth stated that she was uncomfortable endorsing the grocery proposal until they speak to Long Lake, <br />their consultant, and many issues are addressed. <br />Carolyn asked for a vote with qualifications, but stated they could lake what they’ve learned so far to <br />Council. <br />Rahn reasoned that they keep saying the retail is not relative to the residential or anything, and questioned <br />what it is there for if not for the residential.
