h. Linder's Green House Rosemount Market Square PUD Amendment Renewal for 2000
Councilmember Klassen requested discussion on Linder's Green House Renewal because of her
concern for the amendment to the Planned Unit Development of Rosemount Market Square. When
this issue was before the Planning Commission wear$ age Klassen noted she had voted nay
on this amendment. Klassen still has concern for the undo advantage this gives a business because
they do not have to pay tax benefits and it gives them a seasonal high profile.
Councilmember Edwards noted he was O.K. with the recommended action to approve the
amendment, but he did have concerns on the temporary building location. Edwards believed a more
easterly location or east of the Knowlan's building would be more appropriate. Edwards noted that
last year there was a display near Linder's temporary building that appeared as another structure
which would be in violation of the PUD agreement. Councilmember Cisewski agreed.
