The developers of Dan Patch Trail might experience a little twinge of déjà vu next week when they come before the Savage Planning Commission looking for approval of a preliminary development plan.

The Savage City Council will meet Monday, Aug. 18 at 7 p.m. in council chambers at city hall, 6000 McColl Drive.

The tentative agenda is as follows:

Call to order/roll call/Pledge of Allegiance

Presentations, proclamations, awards, suggestions, petitions, complaints and unscheduled matters — from council members and citizens

A. Oath of Office – Police Officers Danny Bouavichith and Frank Mackall

Note: Comments limited to five minutes per person. Longer presentations must be scheduled through the city clerk.

The city has received a letter from the attorney representing Prior Lake Aggregates that the gravel pit owner intends to file a petition for the annexation of 200 acres in Credit River Township into Savage.

 The five parcels are on the south side of County Road 44 and are part of an overall redevelopment plan for the aggregate company’s gravel mining operation.

City Administrator Barry Stock said the letter is simply a notification of the company’s intent and no formal petition has been forwarded to the city.
