It was the consensus of the city and township officials that there should be ongoing efforts between the two communities regarding mutual concerns and projects. Discussion was held on the realignment and maintenance of 160th Street, Empire's long range plan to keep all land south of 160th Street as an Agricultural district, long range land use decisions regarding University of Minnesota lands, the airport issue and utilities. Empire Township Board Chair Gerald Stelzel advised he will recommend that the board adopt a resolution to be forwarded along with a letter from the City of Rosemount to Interim President Richard Sauer of the University of Minnesota that all land south of 160th Street maintain its present zoning status as an Agricultural district. Officials from Rosemount and Empire unanimously opposed any proposal to realign 160th Street to a location farther south than it presently is located. Administrator Stephan Jilk will notify Empire Township officials when a meeting has been scheduled with University of Minnesota consultants to discuss this proposed realignment. Officials from both communities further agreed it would be beneficial to get formal action from both governing bodies and make a cooperative presentation to the Rosemount Advisory Council in August, 1988 regarding their desire to have active participation in the long range planning and land use decisions of the University of Minnesota lands. The next joint meeting was tentatively scheduled for October, 1988. Respectfully submitted, Susan M.
