recommendations regarding stop sign requests in unique situations.

political favors will be granted.
Mixed Use Update
Work on the Mixed Use Ordinance and land use map will be on hold until the TH 52 / 55 /
CSAH 42 studies are complete. MnDOT has proposed that TH 52 will have a bridge over
reactivated rail road tracks expanded to allow a local street underpass if the City will build local
streets. Also, Staff will check with the City Attorney to see if mineral extraction can be made a
non - conforming use, with all future extraction being limited to five year maximum grading
permits in conjunction with required end-use plans.
Endres Update
Endres' track record for fire calls has raised safety issues. The Port Authority could discontinue
TIF financing for Endres if necessary. Staff will further investigate how to go about removing
a business from Rosemount.
