55,000 square foot library on the NW quadrant of the site (Edina side) and parking is contemplated on
the NE quadrant (Richfield side) of the lot. There is still talk of surface parking or structured parking,
but it seems surface parking is what is being contemplated, which would be the worse outcome for
Richfield and Community Development Staff is following up with that. Community Development
Director Stark also announced that an open house is planned for July 23 from 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. at
