Burns, Executive Director of HRA FROM: Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Consider Approval of Development Agreement with Sheet Metal Connectors The City Council approved the addition of the 6.6 acre parcel into the redevelopment project area to enable the HRA to assist with the relocation of Sheet Metal Connectors to Fridley. At the HRA meeting on July 9, 1992, concept approval was given to assist Sheet Metal Connectors via a $200,000 loan. Jim Casserly has prepared the development contract, and has been working with Sheet Metal Connectors in finalizing language in the agreement. (The development agreement is not in the agenda, but is contained in the packet.) Jim Casserly will be present at next Thursday's meeting to review the key elements of the development agreement. Like previous development agreements, Sheet Metal Connectors is required to construct "minimum improvements" prior to receiving HRA assistance. "Minimum improvements" is defined as the construction of an office warehouse building of approximately 100,000 square feet, with a total project cost of approximately $2.5 million. Sheet Metal Connectors also warrants that the completed building is to have a market value of at least $2 million. The HRA would issue the $200,000 loan only when a certificate of completion from the Authority has been issued. Further, the loan must be repaid in accordance with the payment schedule identified in Schedule D attached to the development agreement. Finally, the development agreement requires a personal guarantee from Jerome Myers in case a default of the loan occurs. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Executive Director development agreement BD:ls M -92 -571 the HRA approve the resolution authorizing and Chairperson of the HRA to execute the with Sheet Metal Connectors. 612 334 3382 = C 12 `;4 X82 �� ASSERLl'f lOL %AHNFL I t�T 2 po ZO2 JUN 09'92 1 G : 4C METAL2 CITY OF FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA 09- Jun -92 ---------------------------------__-------------------------------------- PROPOSED METAL CONNECTORS PROJECT - 10 YEAR LOAN SCHEDULE BEGINNING TOTAL ENDING BALANCE PRINCIPAL INTEREST PAYMENT BALANCE 12 / 1992 ----------------------------------------------------- 200,000 0 0 0 200,000 6 / 1993 200,000 0 0 0 200,000 12 / 1993 200,000 0 0 0 200,000 6 / 1994 200,000 0 0 0 200,000 12 / 1994 200,000 0 0 0 2001000 6 / 1995 200,000 10,320 5,000 15,320 189,680 12 / 1995 189,680 10,578 4,742 15,320 179,102 6 / 1996 179,102 10,842 4,478 15,320 168,260 12 / 1996 168,260 11,113 4,207 15,320 157,147 6 / 1997 157,147 11,391 3,929 .15,320 145,756 12 / 1997 145,756 11,676 3,644 15,320 134,080 6 / 1998 134,080 11,968 3,352 15,320 122,112 12 / 1998 122,112 12,267 3,053 15,320 109,845 6 /1999 109,845 12,574 2,746 15,320 97,271 12 / 1999 97,271 12,888 2,432 15,320 84,383 6 / 2000 84,383 13,210 2,110 15,320 71,173 12 / 2000 71,173 13,540 1,779 15,320 57,633 6 / 2001 57,633 13,879 1,441 15,320 43,754 12 / 2001 43,754 14,226 1,094 15,320 29,528 6 / 2002 29,528 14,582 738 15,320 14,946- 12 / 2002 14,946 14,946 374 15,320 (0) 200,000 45,117 245,117 ----- PRINCIPAL 200,000 INTEREST RATE 5,46% YEARS 1 - 2 NO INTEREST YEARS 3 - 10 AMORTIZED 16 SEMI ANNUAL PAYMENTS PREPARED BY CASSERLY MOLZAHN & ASSOCIATES 1 -A HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY IN AND FOR THE CITY OF FRIDLEY COUNTY OF ANOKA STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO.

Enclosed is the Contract for Private Redevelopment between the Fridley HRA and MSCJ, Inc. (the "Agreement "). This Agreement adheres to the concept approved by the HRA at its July 9, 1992 meeting. Because of the security provisions, the Agreement is rather lengthy, but its essential features are described as follows: 1. The project must have an approximate cost of $2 million. 2. After the project is.completed the City will provide a loan to assist MSCJ, Inc. (the "Redeveloper ") in payment of eligible expenses. 3. The loan can only be for eligible expenses which are described as Site Improvements and are listed on Schedule B of the Agreement (page 23). 4. The loan will actually be made when the Certificate of Completion is provided (see schedule C of the Agreement on page 24). The Certificate of Completion is provided after an occupancy permit is provided by the City. 5. To secure the Authority the Redeveloper will sign a Note (see Schedule D starting on page 26). Interest on the Note will not start until February 1, 1995. The first payment on the Note is August 1, 1995 and the last payment is February 1, 2003 (see payment Schedule attached to the dote on page 28). . 1D Page 2 Fridley HRA August 6, 1992 6.

Myers, the majority shareholder of Sheet Metal Connectors, Inc. and MSCJ., Inc. ; and a corporate guarantee by Sheet Metal Connectors, Inc. The remaining provisions of the Agreement are consistent with previous agreements approved by the HRA. If there are any questions, please call.

Casserly Mary E. Molzahn Date: September,2, 1992 RE: Contract for Private Redevelopment by Housing and Redevelopment Authority in of Fridley (the "Authority ") and East (the "Redeveloper ") and between the and for the City Ranch Estates Enclosed please find a copy of the Contract for Private Redevelopment by and between the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Fridley and East Ranch Estates (the "Agreement "). The concept behind this Agreement is basic. The Authority agrees to provide assistance to the Redeveloper for the costs of site improvements, demolition, disposal, soil corrections and related costs up to $145,732. If East Ranch Estates constructs the improvements it has agreed to build, there will be adequate additional taxes to pay the $145,732 plus interest at 9.5 %. The Agreement addresses a problem which we have only briefly discussed. When a City creates a tax increment district, it loses a certain amount of its Local Government Aid Assistance from the State of Minnesota. And, whenever property within that increment district is developed, a City has certain additional costs relating to public safety, maintenance, fire protection and so forth. In Article III of the Agreement (Section 3.5) the Redeveloper is charged a development fee of $1,002 every six months commencing February 1, 1994, to assist the City in funding these additional costs. Because the Authority is asking the Redeveloper for a development fee, the Authority is prepared to provide additional TIF Assistance. As a result, the principal amount of the Revenue Note is $156,618 (see Schedule D of the Agreement) instead of the $145,732 discussed originally. The actual Revenue Note payments are shown on Exhibit 1 to Schedule D of the Agreement. Attached are four Exhibits which reflect these calculations. Exhibit 1 illustrates the total amount of tax increment generated ($273,447) and, ultimately, what revenue is available for Revenue Note. Based on the assumptions listed on the bottom of the Exhibit, approximately $261,694 is available for principal and interest payments to the Redeveloper. Exhibit 2 duplicates the revenue stream available for Revenue Note Payments from Exhibit 1 and, in addition, provides the present value of that revenue stream. Assuming a 9.5% present value rate, the present value of $261,694 is $156,618. This present value figure also represents the principal amount of the Revenue Note. From the revenue stream totalling $261,694, Developer Payments of $1,002 semi annually are deducted. The result represents the net amount of assistance available to the Redeveloper, which totals $243,731 through December, 2002. Over the same period of time, the present value of this net amount of assistance, also 9.5 %, is $145,731 - the agreed upon TIF Assistance amount from the Authority to the Redeveloper. Exhibit 3 illustrates a sample form of a revenue note based on a principal amount of $156,618 and payable through December, 2002 at 9.5 %. The Total Payment Column is the same as Exhibit A to Schedule D which lists the Note Payments. Exhibit 4 illustrates the impact of the Local Government Aid (L.G.A.) deductions to the city. The total amount of these deductions total $19,993 and have a present value, at 5.0%, of $13,687. The Developer Payment is determined by matching the present value of the L.G.A. Adjustment ($13,687) with the present value of the Developer Payment $13,689). The structure of this Agreement is almost identical to agreements recently approved by the Authority. If there are any questions please give us a call.

A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF A CONTRACT FOR PRIVATE REDEVELOPMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY IN AND FOR THE CITY FRIDLEY AND EAST RANCH ESTATES. BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners (the "Commissioners ") of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Fridley, Minnesota (the "Authority ") as follows: Section 1. Recitals. 1.01. It has been proposed that the Authority enter into a Contract For Private Redevelopment (the "Contract ") with East Ranch Estates (the "Redeveloper "). Section 2. Findings. 2.01. The Authority hereby finds that it has approved and adopted a development program known as the Modified Redevelopment Plan for its Redevelopment Project No. 1 (the "Redevelopment Program ")pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.001 et seq. 2.02. The Authority hereby finds that the Contract promotes the objectives as outlined in its Redevelopment Program. Section 3. Authorization for Execution and Delivery. 3.01. The Chairman and the Executive Director of the Authority are hereby authorized to execute and deliver the Contract when the following condition is met: Substantial conformance of a Contract to the Contract presented to the Authority as of this date. 1 Adopted by the Board of Commissioners of the Authority this day of , 1992, Chairman ATTEST: Executive Director 2. fl a° 0 a Community Development Department HOVsiNG AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY City of Fridley VATS: September 3, 1992 TO: William Burns, Executive Director of HRA FROM: Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Proposed Recommendations for Housing Programs An 11 member interdepartmental staff team was composed to develop recommendations for housing programs to the City Council and HRA. This memo discusses the recommended programs, identifies potential costs, recommends an implementation timeframe, and identifies future issues which the City Council and HRA will need to address. The strategies proposed for the City Council and HRA hope to interrupt the cycle of declining and deferred maintenance. They hope to increase community awareness via its neighborhood land use planning process. They hope to encourage community involvement which will hopefully remove the fear of a culturally diverse population. The recommended strategies identify ways to attack potential problem areas but also to serve the community as a whole. Recommended Primary Strategies i 1. The City should develop an "aggressive inspection program ". The staff team strongly recommends more rental inspections per year. The City must aggressively enforce its housing maintenance codes for rental licensing. Other cities in the immediate "market area" inspect more units per year than Fridley (see Exhibit A). The City of Fridley is at risk of receiving the displaced problem tenants from those communities. The age of the multiple family housing stock, about 30 - 35 years old, also dictates that more inspections need to be conducted beyond the current amount. About 130 of the total number of rental units (about 4,000) are inspected. Staff recommends that 2,000 units per year should be inspected. The proposed amount is equal to or greater than Columbia Heights, Brooklyn Park or Brooklyn Center. Existing staff cannot perform this amount of inspections; additional staff needs to be hired. 3 -A Housing Programs Memo Page - 2 Three options exist to conduct rental inspections: hire additional City staff, execute a contract with. a private building inspection firm, or contract with another city who has inspectors in place (Brooklyn Park has expressed an interest). The City of Mound recently went out to bid for a private firm to do its rental inspections. Using the information from Mound, about two inspectors and one clerk are needed for 2000 units /year. Estimated cost would be $110,000. The rental licensing fees are a good revenue source to pay for the inspections. The fees now charged are minimal and should be increased to pay for inspection costs no matter what option is chosen (see Appendix B). Ordinance Amendments Coupled with the aggressive inspection program is a necessity to research potential ordinance amendments to the City Code. The inspectors in the staff team expressed frustration over the court system's apparent lack of interest and concern about issues pertaining to zoning, housing, property maintenance, and related areas. Because the legal system is not well equipped to address these issues, other communities like Coon Rapids are evaluating establishing administrative procedures to deal with problems outside the typical court process. Therefore, staff would like to research further the administrative "hearing" officer approach, not only on housing code violations, but nuisance abatement issues as well (see Appendix C for memos from inspectors) . Further, the City only has a code for residential rental property and condominium common areas. The City should investigate the creation of a housing maintenance code. 2. Scattered Site Acquisition and Abandoned Home Program An annual amount of $225,000 per year should be allocated in the HRA budget to remove blighted, abandoned homes and to acquire properties for resale for new single family or other types of construction. A preliminary list of vacant and abandoned properties has been developed (please see Appendix D). Site numbers 1 - 9 refer to parcel numbers that are listed in the Residential Vacant Land Inventory which is a separate document enclosed in your packet. Site number 10 - 13 are abandoned homes which do not appear in the Vacant Land Inventory. Those lots are not large enough for reconstruction of a single family home according to our ordinance. We have identified two more abandoned homes which could be acquired since the City Council meeting. Initial authorization to proceed this year on two of these properties is requested. Estimated total cost is less than $100,000. 3 -B Housing Programs Memo Page - 3 Those lots to be acquired will need to be incorporated into the redevelopment project area. The appropriate hearings will be scheduled as needed. If there are only two or three properties acquired a year, a consultant may not need to be hired. However, an aggressive acquisition program may dictate the need for outside help. In any case, we will develop a ranking system of properties to acquire and review our recommendations with the City Council and HRA on an annual basis. 3. Actively pursue MHFA programs. Sinale Famil There are two existing MHFA single family rehab programs which are "lender" administered (MHFA Program Summaries are in Appendix E). The MHFA Fix -up Fund and MHFA Minnesota Energy Loan provide monies for single family owners to do general code improvements. The City is not directly involved in the administration of these programs. The City does need to pursue an aggressive advertising program to make owners aware of the availability of the MHFA programs (this will be discussed later in this memo). A first time homebuyer program is also available through MHFA, and it is called the Minnesota City Participation Program. It requires application by the City during a two week application period in April of 1993. While the City prepares the application, the City also needs to work with the lender to agree to participate in the program. We would request the lenders to pay for the application fees ($500 -700), but we may want to allocate money for other application fees. Multiple Family There are several MHFA multiple family rehabilitation, construction, and conversion programs. The current rental rehab program will continue to be administered via ACCAP; however, again the City needs to be more aggressive in advertising the availability of the program. Some of the programs do require the cities and /or non - profit entities to apply. Staff will continue to pursue MHFA funds for any type of multiple family rehab assistance. Problem multiple family buildings, those that have high vacancy rates or are severely deteriorated, should be identified for evaluation for conversion to three bedrooms or another housing density. The evaluation should also include an analysis of whether it would be eligible for a scattered site acquisition, demolition, and reconstruction project. These problem buildings can be identified during the neighborhood land use planning process which is discussed 3 -C Housing Programs Memo Page - 4 later. 4. The City should institute a "Fridley Rehabilitation Loan Program ". The amount of funds provided through the typical state and federal rehabilitation loan programs are not enough to address Fridley's housing problems. The staff team completed an intensive windshield survey to identify structures which need rehabilitation or need to be demolished. While a majority of the single family stock is in good shape, there are areas which need help. Further, there are areas of multiple family buildings which also need a significant amount of rehabilitation. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a rehabilitation loan program to enable property owners to bring their units up to code, build garages, or build additions. We have identified a good way to address single family owner occupied housing; however, there are less financial resources available for multiple family. Single Family At the City Council meeting on July 27, 1992, we reviewed a general outline of how Fridley would create a rehab program for single family homes. In essence, area lenders would be asked to make rehabilitating loans under general guidelines dictated by the HRA to Fridley residents. The lenders, though, would have a previous agreement with the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) to buy the loans once construction is completed. The City Council liked the concept and asked us to pursue it. They also asked us to pursue some type of grant program for low income elderly persons and to find a mechanism to recover that grant upon sale of the property. Since the Council meeting, we have asked Fay Wegner of Miller Schroeder Financial, Inc., to assist us in developing a program. She has worked extensively with Minneapolis and St. Paul to develop their programs, as well as with area lenders. She has put together information for us on both programs. We are currently evaluating both in an attempt to take the best from both worlds and create our own program. We have done a lot of research and Fay seems to be very qualified to help us on, this complicated topic. At a future meeting, we will recommend that the HRA retain Miller Schroeder to help us define the program, meet with lending institutions, and complete the necessary work to establish a 3-D Housing Programs Memo Page - 5 program. We are in the process of negotiating the terms of a consultant contract. There are a number of financing options using the FNMA guide- lines. Bill Burns has written a summary memo of the current programs in St. Paul and Minneapolis (enclosed at end of this memo) . We believe annual costs to the HRA will probably range between $150, 000 to $200, 000. Multiple Family MHFA funding for programs for rental properties is not as plentiful as it was earlier in the decade. Futther, the City receives only $100, 000 in CDBG funds. The new HOME program is administered through the County; it receives only $500, 000 county wide. Finally, the FNMA loans discussed earlier only apply to single family owner occupied properties. Nonetheless, there are alternatives to pursue. For example, the CDBG funds could be used toward building garages along Able and Baker Streets for the 73rd Avenue. The street is lined with rental duplexes with no garages for tenant parking. Or, the funds could be used for a handful of low to very low income properties. There are a number of Federal requirements to follow which makes the program an administrative headache, . but it may be worth the effort. In some extreme cases, the HRA may want to consider acquiring severely deteriorated multiple family structures and selling the property to a developer to build a new building. There are several non-profit groups which could be tapped for funding as well as management of the building. Westminster Corporation is an example. For those MHFA funds which can be obtained, the HRA could pay for the application fees on behalf of the owners to encourage participation. Costs may range from $200 - $1, 000 per application. 5. Complete a Neighborhood Land Use Planning Process. The staff team strongly recommends that a list of potential sites for housing and other redevelopment projects be completed with an accompanying prioritization plan. In order to accomplish this step, the team recommended that the planning process be done on a neighborhood basis. The neighborhood planning process would also serve to encourage citizen participation and community involvement. The planning process would determine the acceptable mix of housing styles and provide the City Council direction on future land use related decisions. 3 -E Housing Programs Memo Page - 6 As part of this process, potential sites for senior housing could also be developed. Char Fitzpatrick submitted information regarding senior "shared living residences" where larger homes are converted as residences for a number of senior individuals. Further, sites for elderly townhomes or other projects can be evaluated. One site that has already been discussed is the Westminster project next to St. William's Church. Westminster is now applying for Section 202 HUD funds to construct a 50 unit senior apartment building. The City should continue to support Westminster's application effort. A neighborhood planning process can also determine potential sites for the HRA scattered site acquisition program. 6. Secondary Strategies A. Community Development Department staff should assist in organizing a multi - family owner, landlord, and manager. coalition, similar to the effort completed in Brooklyn Center and Brooklyn Park. Assistance would be limited to initiating the organization and acting as a resource for information to the owners. Assistance should also include preparation of a pamphlet describing existing resources available to multi - family owners and referrals to key resources. This would serve to improve communication between the City and owners regarding problem tenants and promote cooperation between the City and multi - family properties for rental inspections. B. Prepare a "how to" rehabilitation booklet for homeowners. The Community Development Department staff could prepare it in conjunction with local contractors or other cities which have completed one. C. Neighborhood crime prevention is a key aspect of improving neighborhood quality. How residents perceive safety in their neighborhood is very important. Expansion of the Crime Prevention Program should be evaluated in the future in order to properly maintain and to improve the neighborhood prevention program. Alternative funding sources should be researched. D. Alternative funding sources should be researched to reduce fees for recreation programs for "at risk" and lower income households. E. Zoning Ordinance amendments to create a senior housing district and to permit shared living residences should be researched. 3 -F Housing Programs Memo Page - 7 F. The City should make sure that public improvements, such as repaying streets, replacing curbs and gutters, updating streetlights, etc., coincide with housing improvement programs. G. Provide information in the newsletter regarding reverse mortgages for the senior population (there are two banks in the metropolitan area that offer reverse mortgages). H. Each department, on an annual basis, should identify an employee to participate in a housing team. The purpose of the group is to monitor the progress and implementation of the programs as directed by the City Council and the HRA. A leader would be appointed by the group and report to the City Manager on a regular basis. I. Identify key staff people to act as information sources for housing issues and social service issues. J. Develop a marketing program to advertise the availability of the rehabilitation programs. Incorporate into the HRA advertising budget for 1993 (note that MHFA does have pre - prepared brochures on their programs). K. Use the Human Resources Commission to study the extent of social needs in the community and provide recommendations to target areas for funding with CDBG programs, non - profit funds, or other services that can be made available. L. Continue GIS system coordination with the HTE software so that housing data and neighborhood information can be adequately tracked and obtained when needed. Further, acquisition of the HTE code enforcement software package should be considered which would computerize the systematic code enforcement program and would provide computerization of the rental housing inspection process. M. Conduct cultural diversity training seminars for not only City staff but commission and City Council members as well. O. Organize a mandatory inspection team of problem properties including rehabilitation, code enforcement, building, fire, electrical, and Section 8 inspectors. P. Adopt an ordinance identifying proper procedures for mobile home tie - downs, inspection requirements, and safety requirements. XG Housing Programs Memo Page - 8 Estimated Costs and Proposed Implementation We have prepared a matrix showing the costs of the primary programs and a potential implementation timeframe. Also identified is whether the cost would be borne by the HRA or by the City. Summary of Future Issues Although we have accomplished a significant amount of research to determine what directions we should head, another set of issues were determined as a result! To follow is a list of issues which the City Council and HRA will need to decide in the future as we begin to implement the recommended programs: 1. Bonds versus Banks At this point in time, we are finalizing the details of the FNMA loan option as recommended by Casserly; however, we will continue to research the availability of bond funds as a source of financing for programs. If bonds are pursued, the City would be responsible for administering the loans (see Question #3!). 2. Big Brother versus Laissez Faire The "Big Brother" approach is necessary when doing MHFA or other federal loan programs. Not only are there a lot of inspection requirements (at least three) but also the minimum HUD Housing Quality Codes must be met as well as other code requirements. Under the "Laissez Faire" approach, the City has more leeway because we are using FNMA's money. Do we need to be as aggressive with the inspections and the eligibility requirements as other programs are? Secondly, how many strings do we attach as conditions to the program? If the program is benefitting the middle income households, do we still want to pursue enforcement of minimum housing codes and other issues such as installation of smoke detectors. 3. In -House versus Contracting Out (House) Administration of the single family rehab program will more than likely need to be done by a consultant like ACCAP. Further, a likely option for implementing the rental inspection program may be to contract out to a private inspection firm (or another community). Issues will arise as to where the inspectors are housed, how long do they work at the "City offices ", if at all, how do they document their work (their system versus our 3 -H Housing Programs Memo Page - 9 computer system), and how is information coordinated? 4. Condemnation versus Cooperative Acquisitions How willing is the City Council and HRA to condemn properties as identified as scattered site targets or shall we just attempt to obtain cooperative agreements with land owners? 5. How tough should we be with prosecution? What is the message that we send to our prosecutors? Should we tell them to "throw the book at-the violators" or should we tell them to achieve compliance with the code no matter how long it takes? 6. How much money should we spend for these programs and where should they come from? About $1 million is needed for a single family rehab program for about 100 homes. Is that enough? Should it be more? Is $200,000 enough for a scattered site program? In terms of the rehab program, should we make money available on a quarterly basis knowing an annual budget amount, or should the loan program just be made available in its entirety on a first -come, first -serve basis? 7. Sources of Funding What is the best way to use the funding sources available to us? A recommended standard has been to use other money first, i.e., MHFA, CDBG, and HOME programs. What sources of "our own" money should we use and how much? Other cities have used an HRA tax levy. Should we do the same? HRA Budaet Imnact In last month's agenda, we had developed a chart to analyze the impact of about $500,000 a year. Since then, we have made further refinements. We will present the revised analysis at the meeting. Conclusion No matter what the strategies the City Council and HRA choose to initiate immediately, it is important to create momentum, energy, and interest in the housing issue. At the same time, it is necessary to proceed to the next level of planning and look at the neighborhoods more closely and determine what makes them vital. 3.1 Housing Programs Memo Page - 10 It is important to develop a consensus among the neighborhoods as to future development and housing choices. We look forward to discussing the future direction of housing issues at the City Council and HRA's meetings.

Burns CITYOF (612) 571 -3450 FWDLEY TO: File FROM: William W. Burns, City Manage DATE: August 19, 1992 0 SUBJECT: Housing Programs On Tuesday, August 18, 1992, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., Barbara Dacy and I met with Fay Wegner and Brad Wirt of Miller & Schroeder Financial, Inc. The meeting lasted until 4:30 p.m. Fay . outlined a list of Fannie Mae closing costs, which included: 1. An origination fee of 1 to 1.5 percent and title insurance, which is based on the size of the loan. If the loan was $100,000, title insurance would be $450. 2. $50 for assessment and title searches. 3. Hazard insurance for fire and theft when a purchase is involved. 4. Recording fees of $30. 5. Right now, there are no points at 8 1/8 percent. 6. PMI insurance would be required if the loan devalue ratio was higher than 80 percent. 7. Appraisal fees of about $350. 8. Typically, closing costs run about 2 percent of the mortgage. Fay described the Minneapolis and St. Paul programs. Under the Minneapolis program, the City of Minneapolis will pay 2 percent on purchase loans and 5 percent on purchase rehab loans.or refinancing rehab loans. They will also pay 5 percent on home improvement loans. The amount of the City's participation is payable at the end of 30 years, when the home is sold, or if the borrower no longer occupies the house. The term of the loan is 15 years for home improvements, and 15, 20 or 30 years for the other options. 3 -M Housing Programs August 20, 1992 Page Two St. Paul underwrites a 7.55 percent interest rate for purchases or purchase rehab projects, or refinancing rehab projects. The term of the loan is 30 years, and may range from $20,000 to $180,000. For home improvement projects or second mortgage projects, the interest rate is 7.75 percent, and the loan runs for 15 years. The value of the loan may range from $5,000 to $60,000. The interest rate is fixed for only three years. We also talked about which program is better. Fay felt that the best program allowed the banks to stay as close to their normal process as possible. She seemed to like the Minneapolis program better because of its flexibility. She also pointed out that the refinancing option is a very attractive option right now because of the low interest rates on refinancing home mortgages. If the purchase or rehab loan is sold to Fannie Mae, Fannie Mae requires an appraisal on the house, and the Fannie Mae appraiser also has to be given a scope of work description. The appraiser then computes what the "after" appraisal value of the property is likely to be. When the work is done, the appraiser inspects the work to make sure that the house is really worth what it is supposed to be. The appraiser may do interim inspections if interim draws are needed (i.e., for electrical work). Alternatively, the escrow agent for the bank and Fannie Mae will let the City do the inspections. The Minneapolis program works as follows: 1. The borrower applies for the loan with the lender. 2. Once the lender has approved the loan, the lender sends the payment form to the City of Minneapolis two weeks before the closing on the property. 3. A copy of the loan application, the property appraisal, and the mortgage submission voucher (guarantees that the loan is in accordance with the City's program guidelines) is submitted. A buyer /seller information sheet is also required (includes information such as where the borrower lives, where the buyer lived previously, race, number of children, occupation, and other demographic data). 4. Minneapolis requires that the work be done by an approved list of licensed and bonded contractors. 3 -N Housing Programs August 20, 1992 Page Three 5. Minneapolis will send a program inspector out at the time an application is applied for if the scope of the work warrants it. For smaller projects, an inspector is not sent. The inspector makes sure that the loan money is being used to address housing maintenance code violations. 6. Minneapolis also has rehab inspectors who conduct the inspections on rehab work. 7. The maximum amount of the loan under the Minneapolis program is $168,000. The minimum amount is $15,000. 8. Minneapolis is generous in allowing a variety of improvements. They do allow jacuzzis, but not swimming pools. They allow decks, garages, attachments, but not sheds. 9. Eligible recipients in Minneapolis include those with household incomes of $89,000 or less. In addition, the $89,000 may be $750 higher for each adult in the family, and $500. higher for each child. In the St. Paul program household income can be $96,000. 10. Under Fannie Mae, the loans can apply to duplexes, triplexes or fourplexes, if one of the units is owner occupied. 11. In Minneapolis, the house may not have a value higher than $168,000; in St. Paul, $190,000. 12. Minneapolis has a special credit standard that they have negotiated with the banks and Fannie Mae.. Normally, the lending institutions use a 33/38 credit standard. That is, the PITI can be no higher than 33 percent of the family's gross income, and PITI plus long -term debt may be no higher than 38 percent of the family's gross income. Minneapolis raised that to a 36/41 standard. 13. Fay will get me a list of eligible improvements for both programs. We also discussed advertising. Fay suggested that we use utility bills, local papers, contractor contacts (including meetings with contractors), and the City newsletter and videotape to advertise our program. Housing Programs August 20, 1992 Page Four ! 3 -O We also spoke about things that needed to be done. We need a contract with the banks we are going to use for a loan program. We also need to have a contract with whoever is servicing the loan (the bank or satellite organization, usually a mortgage company). We need a housing maintenance code. Fay will get back to me by Friday with a list of things to do, as well as with information from the Minneapolis and St. Paul programs. Finally, I asked Fay to think about what we might do for people who do not qualify for either the MIFA or our loan program. She suggested that we do something similar to St. Paul's home to ownership program. We should be doing some further thinking on that topic.

A copy is enclosed for your reference. As you will note, no one on behalf of Columbia Park Properties has executed the Third Amendment. In discussing this matter with the attorney for Columbia Park Properties there has been a concern expressed to me that the enclosed document is confusing and calls for reference to various other existing documentation. Quite honestly, I agree that the enclosed is a bit confusing in that you have to refer to several outside documents in order to make the enclosed understandable. As a result, Columbia Park Properties would prefer that we simply redraft the document as an amended and restated leasehold agreement incorporating all of the existing outside documents into one self - contained document, including all provisions of each of the previous Leasehold Agreements that are still applicable. I have worked up a very rough draft of such an amended and restated leasehold agreement which I will be cleaning up in the next couple of days. I just wanted to let you know what I am doing and why so that when I submit the amended and restated leasehold agreement for the HRA's signature, everyone understands what we are doing and why.

WHEREAS, on the 20th day of September, 1982, the HRA and the Fridley Plaza Office Building Partnership entered into a Leasehold Agreement which required the HRA to provide the Fridley Plaza Office Building Partnership with the non - exclusive right to a 166 car parking lot; and WHEREAS, the Leasehold Agreement was amended pursuant to Amendment to Leasehold Agreement, dated January 31, 1989, providing for the construction of a parking ramp on the site of the parking lot; and WHEREAS, the Leasehold Agreement was further amended by instrument, dated February 22, 1989, to revise the legal description of the property subject to the Leasehold Agreement to afford the Fridley Plaza Office Building Partnership additional vehicle ingress and egress access to the parking ramp parcel; and WHEREAS, the HRA and the Fridley Plaza Office Building Partnership entered into that certain Memorandum of Leasehold Agreement, dated February 22, 1989, filed March 9, 1989, in the Office of the Anoka County Recorder as Document No. 842658, to establish the Leasehold Agreement of record; and WHEREAS, the Fridley Plaza Office Building Partnership assigned its interest in the Leasehold Agreement to Performance Investments, a Minnesota Partnership, by Assignment, dated March 3, 1989; and WHEREAS, Performance Investments assigned its interest in the Leasehold Agreement to "Redeveloper" by Assignment of Leasehold Interests, dated August 29, 1991; and WHEREAS, the parties have discovered that the new legal description is not correct and the parties agree that the Leasehold Agreement, as amended, should be further amended.

Jim Kordiak does not believe we will be successful in re- leasing the space unless we improve the appearance of the building. He recommends we strongly consider demolition. Because we will be minus Rapit Printing's income for only three months, the HRA will probably break even this year. Next year, however, will be a different story. I will prepare a revised income and expenses analysis prior to next Thursday's meeting. Of the remaining four tenants, three of them have month -to -month lease arrangements. Hong Kong Kitchen has a lease in place until October 1993. Hong Kong Kitchen, however, has apparently been approached by the management of Holly Center to move their facilities. If we were to demolish in 1993, we would simply give a 30 day notice to the month -to -month tenants. If Hong Kong Kitchen does not break its lease first, we would potentially be obligated to assist Hong Kong Kitchen in relocating. Further, I had previously estimated demolition costs of about $25,000 (based on a demolition contractor's estimate). Again, I will have an expense and revenue analysis for 1993 prior to the meeting, as well as list of carrying costs for the property if we were to demolish the building.

Fridley Town Square redevelopment could take remaining tenants. 3. Holly Center has approached Hong Kong Kitchen. 4. HRA could terminate two of these leases with a 30 day notice. 5. HRA would be responsible for relocation costs if lease is broken with Hong Kong Kitchen. RECOMMENDATION: 1. Determine if any of the tenants can be relocated in Fridley Town Square. 2. If not, identify demolition date - possibly prior to Mississippi Street reconstruction next spring. 3. Meet with tenants, issue notices to vacate by end of 1992. 4. 1993 Budget should include: a. Cost to relocate $40,000 ? b. Cost to demolish $25,000 C. Cost to maintain $20,500 $85,500 r9 r � Community Development Department PLANNING DIVISION City of Fridley DATE: July 31, 1992 TO: William Burns, City Manager FROM: /Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Request by Tim Werner Regarding Lake Pointe Site Tim Werner of 6424 Able Street N.E. is running against Alice Johnson in the upcoming election. He stopped to see me earlier this week to ask some questions about Fridley. One of his main issues is the concern over the proposed light rail transit system. Because he believes that the metro area should pursue better bus service, he has inquired as to whether or not the HRA would be willing to establish a park- and -ride site at the immediate intersection of Highway 65 and West Moore Lake Drive (where the bank, hotel, and restaurant buildings were proposed in the original Lake Pointe plan). Despite the effort that I made to explain to him the current situation with the Lake Pointe site, he is persistent in his request. While there is no question in my mind that some type of park -and - ride facility will be established along with the Lake Pointe development anyway, he seems more concerned about the interim time frame prior to its development. Please contact me with your comments. Thank you. BD /dn M -92 -504 6 C% Community Development Department HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY City of Fridley DATE: September 3, 1992 TO: William Burns, Executive Director of HRA FROM: Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Temporary Signage Request for Southwest Quadrant At its conference meeting on August 31, 1991, the City Council reviewed the attached memo. The Council requested that the signage directing traffic to businesses in the southwest quadrant during reconstruction of Mississippi Street be installed this fall and should remain until the completion of the street reconstruction. It should not remain until redevelopment of the southwest quadrant. Anoka County has advised us that the street reconstruction will occur next spring. There may be installation of underground utilities this fall. The Council also indicated that the sign costs should be part of the costs that the City pays Anoka County for the street improvement project. No action is needed by the HRA on this item. BD:ls M -92 -573 am VA i Community Development Department HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY DATE: July 15, 1992 City of Fridley TO: William Burns, Executive Director of HRA FROM: ,Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Sign for Redirecting Traffic During. Mississippi Street Reconstruction Bill, you asked me to research the possibility of the installation of a sign for Burger King at the intersection of 3rd Street and Mississippi Street during the Mississippi Street reconstruction. It occurred to me when researching this request that we had also discussed the same type of approach for Dairy Queen because the entrance to the drive - through lane will also be at the same location of 3rd Street and Mississippi Street. Further, in order to be fair to other businesses along the frontage road, I have developed a sign prototype that we can consider for installation at the intersection. The prototype is based on the typical blue information signs that are seen along the interstates. They identify upcoming restaurants and hotels by identifying the businesses and also providing the logo of that particular enterprise. Proposed is a double - faced 60 square foot sign which lists all the businesses served by the frontage road and 3rd Street. The businesses are listed in alphabetical order and room is provided for a logo or symbol to additionally identify the enterprise, if desired. The background of the sign would be dark blue and would consist of white reflective letters and arrows. The logos would be the colors of the particular enterprise. John Flora indicated that his shop could prepare such a sign. In so doing, the HRA could pay for the cost of the sign, or the sign could be split between the nine enterprises identified on the sign. The problem with splitting the cost is that it may be difficult to obtain payment from the enterprises; in that case, the name may not appear on the sign. Sign Location The location of the sign needs to be 10 feet back from the property line and needs to be placed so that it does not conflict with the new Liquor Store sign. The sign height should not exceed 10 feet, consistent with other types of traffic control signs such as stop signs. 9V Sign During Mississippi Street Reconstruction July 15, 1992 Page 2 Code Compliance There are three issues affecting this sign: 1. If it is intended as an "interim" sign for just the term of the Mississippi Street construction project, the Code does provide for "governmental signs" which "direct or guide traffic or provide public information ". 2. If it is intended for the period until redevelopment occurs on the property, the HRA could be subject to criticism by business owners in similar situations where access is limited (Moon Plaza or other businesses along frontage roads). In other words, the HRA would be permitting "off premise" signage specifically prohibited by the ordinance. A variance applicaton should be processed. 3. Who pays for the sign? If it is just for the street construction, the HRA might want to consider paying for it. If it is to be on the site longer, the businesses should pay for it. Sign Cost We have received a cost estimate of $600 from DeMars Sign. We could possibly do it "in house ", although I have not reviewed the details with Public Works. As you recall, additional signage is needed for the Dairy Queen to direct traffic in front of Rice Plaza to the realigned entrance to the Dairy Queen drive- through. I have worked previously with Don Fitch on this issue. If this proposed sign is not installed, the HRA does need to work with Don Fitch to have directional signs placed on the property for drive - through traffic. This does not violate the Sign Code, because the HRA owns both the Dairy Queen and Rice Plaza properties, so we can easily install directional signs. Fitch had previously indicated he was willing to pay for those signs. Summary 1. If a multi - business is proposed, I believe we can process it as a governmental sign via our Sign Code for just the term of the Mississippi Street construction project. 2. If the sign is to remain on the property until the area is redeveloped, we should have the HRA process a sign variance application for the council to permit a sign advertising the location of enterprises not on its property. �� Sign During Mississippi Street Reconstruction July 15, 1992 Page 3 3. After I obtain a cost estimate for the proposed sign, the HRA should decide whether it should pay for the sign or have the cost shared by the affected businesses. I look forward to your response.

Ericson stated that he has found a private financial source to complete the Fridley Town Square project all in one phase, 28,000 sq. ft., as originally approved by the City Council. While we do not have written confirmation, we believe that he has an agreement with the Burger King franchise owner in Fridley. It is Ericson's hope to purchase all the properties within 90 days and then begin construction next spring. Another developer by the name of Lowell Wagner was interested in the property. He apparently had an agreement with Don Fitch of the Dairy Queen, and they also submitted an offer to the property owners. It appears, however, that the property owners are going to execute the deal with Ericson. Ericson has agreed to provide us with monies to have Jim Casserly review a revised proforma and to bring the concept of assistance back to the HRA for review. If approved by the HRA, a development contract would be scheduled for HRA approval.
