Mayor Jabbour commented that this present City Council seems willing to pass a resolution in SLcport of what the Slaughters are proposing. Tom Barrett, City Attorney, stated that tonight's discussions are not binding on the City Council, noting that the Mayor has attempted to point out that there are regulations that need to be met, which is a planning process that needs to be followed through. Barrett stated that the decision regarding the final road will not be made tonight. Slaughter commented that their lease is up for renewal with the railroad and that they need to know whether the cartway is considered a public access. Barrett remarked he is unable at this time to make a determination whether the cartway is a legal access, which would be a costly process, and recommended pursuing the other option presented tonight rather than further pursuing the "cartway" option. Mayor Jabbour indicated that the City is willing to work with the parties to see if the frontage road could be constructed. Jabbour stated that the City is motivated in seeing that the three property owners obtain a safe access, with the City interested in working diligently with the parties involved to see that this option is accomplished. Jabbour noted that the costs associated with this process are normally assessed against the property owners. Jabbour moved, Kelley seconded, approving endorsement by City Staff and City Council of the proposed frontage road/road to provide 4575,4555,4545, and 4300 Wayzata Boulevard with an access onto Townline Road, with the cooperation of Medina and the other parties involved, and subject to future review by the City Council, City Staff, and other appropriate agencies.
