I've been a neighbor across on the north side of Cherry View Park for nearly 30 years now... I just feel like with all the changes that have gone on in that neighborhood with the maintenance facility sometime in the last 15 years and Housing Development to the South there should have been an opportunity for reserving land to the South or near that maintenance facility where this fire station might be better located.

Steve Burke [Citizen Comment]Cedar DOD Fire Station Proposal - Public Comment

One of my main concerns is around 179th Street and grandby... I do not like the sidelines when I come out of there from the north... there's going to be an issue there. I do feel like you'll end up losing more lives. There's already been one youth in our neighborhood that lost his life last summer last June.

Steve Burke [Citizen Comment]Cedar DOD Fire Station Proposal - Public Comment

If you could publish out essentially a three to five year history about what the calls are for both fire stations two and four which are going to be closed so we can understand what kind of call rates we're looking at over a month's time or something like that I think that's owed to the neighborhood.

Steve Burke [Citizen Comment]Cedar DOD Fire Station Proposal - Public Comment

Whereas the city of Lakeville reaffirms its commitment to promoting tolerance understanding and human dignity while standing against all forms of hatred and discrimination and whereas it is our duty to ensure that the lessons of the Holocaust remain a Cornerstone of our Collective memory and to honor the resilience and courage of those who survived and rebuilt their lives.

Mayor Luke Kier [Proclamation Reading]International Holocaust Remembrance Day Proclamation

Our Perpetual inventory shrink was an amazing 7 1,000th of a percent Point... average retail is around 2% so this was amazing. This is a testament to our staff for being diligent and really paying attention.

Mayor Luke Kier [Council Comment]2024 Liquor Department Annual Operations Report

We've experienced a lot of development activity this year with almost 260 well almost $258 Million worth of building permit activity... we receive a lot of continued private sector investment over 75.1 million in different commercial projects as well as Industrial Park projects.

Community Development Director [Report]2024 Economic Development Annual Report

I am personally looking forward to the business retention program I think we're going to find a lot of success there so thank you for both of you guys putting that together.

Council Member [Comment]2024 Economic Development Annual Report

We're looking at essentially a replat of an existing outlot that was done many many years ago... we are proposing to put some significant Landscaping in and also preserving and protecting the existing Landscaping that was actually required as part of that initial plat process.

Jennifer Hascamp, Developer [Presentation]Kenrick Corner Second Edition Preliminary Plat and Easement Vacation

I appreciate the preservation of the existing screening and the lack of disturbance to the other properties around it... I think that's a nice feature of this new plat.

Council Member Joshua Lee [Question]Kenrick Corner Second Edition Preliminary Plat and Easement Vacation

We're really trying to reduce the amount of parking for some of our larger uses manufacturing warehousing where a lot of automation can be handled and where we just don't have the need for these large parking areas.

Community Development Director [Report]Title 11 City Code Amendment - 2024 Phase 2 Zoning Updates

The M2U mixed use Corridor... the current ordinance allows for multifamily within this ordinance and has a per square foot unit of 1,675 which matches the low end of the density range but doesn't match the high end of the density range that was missed and so we have to match the zoning with the comp plan.
