He stated the property at 2182 Lake Brook Drive has been rented out as an Air <br />BNB. He noted this use was clogging the streets with cars and noted vehicles were parking on <br />the grass. He indicated this home had 38 cars one night. He requested the City investigate this <br />property further. He stated he also had concerns about the property at 2181 Lake Brook Drive <br />as it was becoming a junk house. He explained he has contacted the City on numerous <br />occasions complaining about the number of inoperable vehicles on this property. He requested <br />the City investigate this property further. <br />Tony Doroff, 518 9th Avenue NW, discussed the Midtown Village project with the Council. <br />He questioned why the entire City did not receive notification on this project given the fact TIF <br />was being used for to fund this project. In addition, he believed this project did not make the <br />community more walkable. <br />Paul Kampa, 1150 6th Street NW, stated he has lived in his home for the past 50 years. He <br />requested the City consider some traffic changes on 6th Street NW. He commented on a T- <br />bone accident that occurred two weeks ago along this roadway. He stated he would like to see <br />the speed along 6th Street NW lowered and that additional stop signs be installed. <br />Mr. Kampa expressed concern with the fact that one of the Councilmembers was in arrears <br />with the City for a water bill. He encouraged the Council to make sure all members of the City <br />are being treated fairly and that no underhanded action was taking place. <br /> <br />Approval of Agenda <br />Approval of the June 25, 2019 Council Agenda. <br /> <br /> <br />Call to Order <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Pledge of Allegiance <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Public Comment <br />Forum <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Approval of Agenda <br />Approval of the <br />June 25, 2019 Agenda. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS <br />THE CITY OF NEW BRIGHTON
