Jon Mueller is the Landscape Architect who stood up at the last CdA City Council meeting to present NIC’s plan for the Ed Corridor and ask for a zone change. During that meeting, and even on the blogs beforehand, there was much discussion about commercial development on the property for which we were all forced to pay $10 million dollars.
At the council meeting, Jon Mueller assured everyone that there would be no commercial allowed within the PUD he was asking to be zoned C-17.
After reading some of the blogs, especially my questions here on OpenCdA, Jon called me yesterday to be sure everyone understands that his statement about no commercial ONLY applies to the PUD area, not the whole Mill site property. Jon said he has no knowledge of the college’s plans for the rest of the land. Thanks, Jon, for taking the time to clarify. We appreciate it!
“Jon said he has no knowledge of the college’s plans for the rest of the land.” And that is the script he was told to stick to.

I do think he’s in a tough spot, in many regards. He wants to do business with the college, the city, LCDC, etc., so he has to carry their water. On the other hand, there are many business people in town who are choosing to work with people and projects they think are being done openly and properly. I’m guessing it’s easier to sleep well that way.
