Peauot Lakes Business Park Infill—Tommv Wooq <br /> Tommy Woog indicated he believes there is a lack of understanding <br /> among property owners in the Pequot Lakes Business Park about the Infill <br /> Zone Ordinance. Mr. Woog noted that if the property owners were notified <br /> that they are able to subdivide and sell their lots this would allow for <br /> additional businesses where the City currently has utilities available. <br /> Commissioner Lindholm thanked Mr. Woog for bringing this to the <br /> attention of the EDC stating they have been concentrating on a long term <br /> plan with the Heart of the Good Life Development rather than looking at <br /> the opportunities for additional businesses where there are already utilities <br /> and services available. <br />
