changed slightly since the last time [5:17] that's been reviewed um the roadway [5:21] variance has been removed and the um [5:24] it's now three [5:26] lots in March we're not sure which [5:28] meeting in March we have uh 200 Lake [5:31] Street with their re the old TCF sites [5:35] uh so that will be coming up and then um [5:39] you have been seeing some emails about [5:41] the kishes uh the former Caribou Coffee [5:45] site and U that will uh not start for a [5:49] couple weeks yet but uh you know we're [5:52] definitely getting inquiries and and [5:54] information about that so any questions [5:56] regarding development have there been [5:59] any businesses that have inquired about [6:01] the space or contracted for the space [6:04] it's not going to be a Careo anymore I'm [6:06] sure uh my understanding is that the [6:09] upper story is uh office space and I [6:11] don't know whether they're making that [6:12] tenant public yet uh but that they'll [6:14] span between uh the new structure and [6:16] then come into the old structure a [6:17] little bit as well on that second floor [6:19] I think they may also take up some first [6:21] floor space and then I know that there [6:22] will be uh some additional room on the [6:24] first floor St space I'm not sure if [6:26] that'll end up being retail or maybe [6:28] some sort of small [6:30] take away food use or something along [6:31] those lines but we'll know more soon [6:33] okay thank [6:35] you uh you mentioned uh Ferndale Bluff [6:38] I'm sorry I'm not I don't know what that [6:40] is if you could just

there's a [6:52] uh it's about a 12 Acre Site only a [6:54] small portion of which touches uh [6:56] Ferndale Road West but it's on the North [6:58] side uh they previously came to us uh [7:01] about at Le I think a year ago uh with a [7:04] proposal to uh put in a public Street [7:07] and a four lot subdivision that proposal [7:10] uh was recommended for denial by the [7:12] Planning Commission and then they didn't [7:13] continue on to city council they [7:15] withdrew since then they've been working [7:17] on refining their proposal and they're [7:19] back again with a complete application
