MEMORANDUM
TO: PLANNING COMMISSIONERS
FROM: HORST GRASER
RE: CONSIDERATION OF REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT NO. 2 PLAN
DATE: FEBRUARY 1, 1990
The purpose of this hearing is to introduce, discuss, and
consider a resolution relative to the Redevelopment Project No. 2
Plan (attached). And also to review the Tax Increment District
No. 2 -1 and the development proposal therein.
Minnesota Statues Section 469.027 requires the Planning
Commission to review the extent of the district and its
conformity to the plan. Economic Development Director Kay
Schmudlach will make a presentation giving an overview of the
process and the specific detail. I will review the objections of
the redevelopment project which are found on pages 7 and S.
The Tax Increment District No. 2 -1 (attached), is the financial
document for the Super Value grocery store. Kay Schmudlach will
give a brief overview of this document. No approvals by the
Planning Commission are required. Also in attendance will be the
architect for the Super Value project to discuss the site and
building plans (site plan is attached). It has been policy of
Prior Lake to have the Planning Commission review the site plan
and make a recommendation to the City Council. Staff has not had
adequate time to review the site plan, therefore a Staff
recommendation is not attached. However, I will be prepared with
comments and specific recommendation.
