<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />City of New Brighton <br />April 27, 1982 <br /> <br />Counci1member Schmidt asked if it was <br />likely that the three (3) nothern lots <br />could be sold and developed at a price <br />comparable to the southern-most lot. <br /> <br />The Director of community Development stated <br />that in his opinion the lot that posed the <br />greatest potential problem was the northern- <br />most corner lot in that it was on a more <br />heavily traveled street and because of the <br />side street yard setback required provided <br />the least buildable area for a home which <br />therefore made development probably more <br />difficult. The Director of community Development <br />stated that in his opinion development on the <br />northern lot may not happen if lots are sold <br />individually. <br /> <br />After considerable discussion the Council <br />acted in the following manner: <br /> <br />Motion by Blomquist to defer action on <br />the purchase agreements as submitted until <br />May 11, 1982 and to direct staff to invest- <br />igate the possibility of selling all four(4) <br />lots as a package. <br /> <br />Motion died for lack of second. <br /> <br />Motion by Schmidt, seconded by Janecek to authorize <br />the Mayor and Manager to execute a purchase agreement <br />with Karl and Christine Ruser for sale of Lot 18, <br />Block 1, Redmond Addition. <br />4 ayes - 1 naye (Blomquist) - motion carried <br /> <br />Mr. Karl Ruser, 2297 Standish, St. Paul, stated <br />that it was their intention to construct a <br />quality home on this site and he also stated <br />that he was a horticulturist at the University <br />of Minnesota and that as a result he took great <br />pride in the landscaping and development of his <br />property. Mr. Ruser stated that he could assure <br />the Council that they would take good care of <br />the property, that they would be good neighbors <br />for the community and that they felt they would <br />be good neighbors for the other party wishing <br />to buy the remaining lots. <br /> <br />Motion by Benke, seconded by Blomquist to direct <br />staff to entertain offers for the remaining <br />three (3) lots as a package of all three (3) <br />lots together. <br /> <br />-5- <br />
