TCAAP Update <br />Director Fernelius did not attend an informational meeting on the status of the Twin City Army <br />Ammunition Plant (TCAAP) hosted by the City of Arden Hills. The presentation included a <br />historical overview of the project and the City's current efforts to redevelop the site. <br />The current plan calls for the prospective buyer to complete the remaining environmental clean- <br />up, although the Army is financially responsible for remediation to an industrial standard. The <br />City of Arden Hills has affirmed its vision for the area as a mixed-use development, with <br />residential, commercial, light industrial, park and open space uses. <br />Director Fernelius stated the TCAPP project is years behind the NWQ development, but New <br />Brighton should pay attention as a close neighbor to the project. <br />Phillips reported an auction will occur in June -July; where approximately 400 acres will be <br />auctioned, the majority will stay with the National Guard. <br />Railroad Wye <br />Director Fernelius reported it has been discouraging working with Canadian Pacific, whose <br />corporate offices are in Calgary, Canada. The implication to New Brighton is that grant funds <br />could be lost if unable to secure a deal in the next few weeks. <br />Adiournment <br />Motion by Commissioner Flahave, seconded by Commissioner Vasquez to adjourn. <br />6 ayes, 0 nays. <br />Motion Approved. <br />The meeting adjourned at 8:45 a.m. <br />
