Steering Committee Minutes Page 9 <br /> April 20, 1995 <br /> • Chair Minton stated that it appears the Committee needs to identify another <br /> area for industrial use. Pat Dwyer suggested that the Rail 10 Industrial Park could <br /> be extended south from 173rd to 171st. <br /> Marly Glines suggested the City consider trading city property for the <br /> approximately 40 acre parcel owned by Cargill located behind Ebner's Bait and <br /> Houle's. <br /> Chair Minton asked that staff prepare additional recommendations or <br /> alternatives for industrial development. <br /> Discussion followed regarding possibilities for industrial property on east Highway <br /> 10. Dick Hinkle suggested that water and sewer be extended to 165th. He noted <br /> that Mn/DOT is considering placing a semaphore at the Highway 10/165th <br /> Avenue intersection. He stated that industry can occur with private septic <br /> systems but that water is needed for fire protection. This could be accomplished <br /> by adding an additional water tower. He stated that he felt the industry should <br /> pay for the improvements and not Cargill or anyone else in the way of it. He felt <br /> there are areas along Jarvis that may be possibilities. <br /> Pat felt that industry should begin more toward the City. Dick stated that it will be <br /> a long time before sewer and water is extended there. He suggested an <br /> industrial park could be done like the one in Princeton,with its own water tower. <br /> Hank stated that a forcemain down Highway 10 would be less than a septic <br /> system. <br /> • Chris Kreger suggested that Steve Ach prepare maps showing some of the ideas <br /> presented to discuss at the next meeting. <br /> General discussion followed regarding the importance of setting aside industrial <br /> property, and projected growth of Elk River. <br /> 7.
