Robert also discussed the proposed Community Garden in Phillips West located off of 5th Avenue and said he will continue to work on this and would like to see the park implemented this summer. Robert also discussed the new gas station located off of Lake Street at the former Jordan Stop. The City did approve the gas station but had 11 requirements that need to happen in order to open.

Now it is listed as Edina Investment Group but we dont know anything about who owns this or the company?
