Planning and Community Development Director Schafer stated in order to
initiate the formal environmental review process for the Ball Road retail
project, the City will need to authorize the EAW submittal and publication.
He stated once released and published by the Environmental Quality Board,
the official public comment period will begin. He noted the comment period
is expected to be open from June 24 to July 24, 2013. He stated in August
2013, the City will be able to review any agency or public comments that have
been submitted and consider whether the EAW is adequate and determine that
an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required.
Councilmember Clark stated passing this resolution tonight does not mean the
City is endorsing or voting yes or no on Wal-Mart. This is a procedural task
that is done on any development and is part of the City’s due diligence and
part of the regulatory process.

City Council Minutes - Final June 6, 2013
Councilmember Bourke stated the EAW is a research document that may
work in favor of the neighborhood.
Councilmember Swanson requested the cities of Circle Pines and Lino Lakes
provide comments on the EAW. These cities may be affected by traffic and
drainage.
Harold Hollander, 103rd Lane, stated the project has been talked about since
November 2011. He has attended many meetings on the project and has not
heard any common sense reasons to build a Wal-Mart at this location. He
stated there are many reasons why not to build a Wal-Mart at this location. He
stated he has not heard any comments on the repercussions of the Village
shopping center losing a major tenant.
Councilmember Herbst stated by approving the EAW it allows the public to
comment on it.
David Jaks, 10515 Marmon Street, stated he doesn’t want the traffic on his
street and this is his biggest concern. He stated traffic on Ball Road moves
very fast. He stated he works at Bermo and it is rumored that a round-about
may be built. He would like to see Wal-Mart built on the other side of the
freeway. He stated he understands the property is commercial, but he would
rather see another type of business on that property.
City Manager Arneson summarized the process for the Council that the City
has a 90 day environmental review process with the EAW. At the end of the
process if further study is needed an Environmental Impact Statement would
be completed. Once the statement is completed, Wal-Mart can file a
development application with the City for consideration of a proposed store.
He noted to date, no application has been received. The first part of the study
is to look at environmental impacts and the second part is neighborhood
impacts.
Councilmember Swanson stated he is concerned about the people who walk
on Ball Road. He wants to have Circle Pines, Lino Lakes and the school
district involved in the project discussion.
Councilmember Clark commented this Council’s focus is on the rights of the
property owner, the rights of the neighborhood adjoining the property and to
balance both.
Moved by Councilmember Clark, seconded by Councilmember Herbst, that this
Resolution be Adopted. The Motion was adopted unanimously.
