Staff concurs with this recommendation. Rod Bernu, Nutec Construction Co. explained that no decision had been made on the sidewalk for the exterior perimeter of the property; and the internal section of sidewalk network has been discussed with the City and will be installed as proposed. Mayor Benke commented that at the Economic Development Commission review, there was discussion on constructing a sidewalk along Cleveland so that residents from the homes and apartments to the north could safely walk to the corner thereby saving the gas and energy from driving a car. This could also connect to the trail system to the north which goes into Arden Hills. Benke questioned the location of mechanical and electrical equipment. Mr, Bernu responded that most equipment will be inside the building, however, some of the air changing equipment will be on the roof. Benke recommended that they be located on the side of the building away from the residential area. Mr. Bernu noted that there would be an outside enclosed waste receptacle on the northeast side, however, they will look at moving it to the south side of the structure, Samuelson noted she was very excited about this development and how it would improve this busy corner, Council Business Industrial Equities Phase 2, BCP II LP-338, PUD -6, PL-243 Report No. 98-094 Resolution No, 98-054 Resolution No, 18-055 Nutec Construction Redevelopment of site at Co.Rd D/Cleveland LP~339 Report No. 98-095
