Ae stated Mr. Linaoln was the Loan Off iaer and Proj ect Coordinator. 8e stated that sinoe the Marci� meeting, they have e�ecuted the agreement with the SRA and have made an application for a mortgage vomnitment with Centennial Mortgage in Southbend, Indiana. Centennial has retairied the Ma�ield Researdz group to �date their study. Maxfield has indicated that the update will be �pleted in three weeks or less and has indicated there is still a strong market. Centennial has also engaqed anather firni for appraisal for the project which will be done in the same time period. Mr. Ltaidgren stated the Fridley Plaza Associates group has ca�ssed 31 sets of drawings and specif ications to be printed at a aost a� a little over S 3, 000. Rrause Anderson is working on the project at the �esent time and is in the prooess of taking new subbids. �ose are expected to be availahle in 2 1/2 weeks. Rra�e Anderson has indicated that because of the intense interest in the p�oject, they expect to get better prices than those obtair�d in -1- � ��_, �: ;+�� !;;�� ; ��►1�_�i� 4M v��! M�: ': 1 Deaember 1986. Mr. Ltndgren stated a meeting was held with city staff at 10:30 that morning attended by Mr. Robertson. Mr. Newman. Mr. Lincoln. Mr. Revin Rouse, Mr. Alan Rouse, and himself. Three complete sets of drawings have been del ivered and an appl ication f iled f or a building pernnit with Darrel Cl ar k, the Building Inspector. Zhey are sci�eduled to meet with staff on Wec�esday, May 4, at whic3� time they expect all the preliminary aost ir�ormation to be in hand, and they will then be wor king on the details and f ill ing in the skeleton of the developaent agreement. He stated much progress has been made, things are going well, and he did not see any °gl itches" at the mament. Mr. Robertson stated at the meeting that morning they w�rked out a rough sd�ec�il.e. T3e stated Centennial Mortgage asked for, and Mr. Newman has drafted, a letter aonfinning past HRA acti� in giving notice of option to Mr. Ltmdgren for the property. Mr. L�dgren r�ee�ed this letter for the HUD taiderwriting on the mortgage. �at letter was del ivered to Mr. Lundgren this evening. Mr. Robertson stated the rnxt key date was approximately May 1 when they expect the market stt�y to be updated by the Maxfield cgoup. By the May 12 �IltA meeting, staff is requesting that the developer and the f inancier prep�re a rather thorouc�i p�ogress rep�rt an what they have a�npl ished to date. After that, the k,ey date is the end of May when they will get some indicatian irrEormally oai the financing. In order to expedite the process, Oentennial is not going to go through a p�eliminary co�nitment and then a final wmnitment prooess. They are going right to the process where they will make esserttially a f inal oomnitme.nt wihin this 75 day timef rame. With that, they hope to get a finn �nitment at approximately the same time the letter a� credit is due, whic3i is the end of J�ne. Mr. Newman stated that at the last meeting, the HRA ciirected staff to try to bridge the gap on f inancing. Staff did have a meeting with Mr. L�dgren and his a�nsultants whidz was followed up with a discussion with Centennial's legal c�o�nsel. In talking to the people at Centermial Mortgage, they were enwuraging in that staff believed a�uple of different alternatives could be used to p�avide a total financing package. Staff was also enoouraged in that they felt there were some avenues they could explore in securing the HRA's interest adequately. 7i�ose were the two major issues that had to be resolved, and staff was so enoouraged with the answers that, based on the HRA's direction at the last meeting, staff exten�d the option for an additional 90-day period. Mr. Meyer askeol what role Rrause Anderson would play in the whole aperatian. Mr. Ltazdgren stated they will be the general writractor who will produoe 1-he c7rawinc}s e�ctly a000rding to the plans and specifications for "x" aano�mt aE dollars. R�ey wi].1 reoeive r� interest or vwnership in the projject.

Mr. Newman stated that as in all thei r devel opnent cont r act s, a pr ov isi on would be included of when the 8RA would have the ric,�t to review the construction plans. Mr. Meyer stated if the pla�s and specifications are ready now, he would 1 ike the HRA to see then. Mr. Robertson stated three o�pies were sutraitted to the City that morning. Mr. Meyer asked Mr. Linfloln if he had any �nnents he would like to make. Mr. Lino�ln stated it was very nive to be in the City o� EYidley. He stated Centennial is excited about the project. It seems to be a very viable project, but there was still a lot aF work to be cbne. �e application was in and all their people are working to get things done to meet the timefranes. Zfiey feel oou�fortahle that these timefranes can be met. They will be in oontact with Mr. L�mc7gren who in turn will inform staff and the HRA on ho�w things are p�ogressing. Mr. Meyer stated this was all very heartening news to the HRA, and they oertainly hoped things aoritinued to g� well. 2. COIISIDERATION OF MOORE IAKE CQ�A�I01�5 DF'�:T�:NL' AQ2EEN�IVI': Mr. Robertson stated that at the last meeting, the HRA authorized staff to prooeed with drafting a develogne.nt agreanerrt based essentially on six items outlu�ed in his April B, 1988, m0no to the HRA: L 5900,000 write-�own 2. Lanc'�caping mair�enanve agreeaent 3. Develapers guarantee reimbursement o� City wst � o�nstructing utilities if rn start c� vonstruc�i� in 18 manths. 4. Financial statemerits to be reviewed by i�tA attorr�eys. 5. SL2 milli� tokal o�st of public impravenerit wnstruction bY ffitA- 6. f�iA prwic7es minimim lanciscaping of $95, 000 in Rioe Creek Road ri�t-a� way. Mr. Rnbertson stated that esseritially the way this was structurec7 was that a write-�iown of 5400,000 is turned aver to the developers at the end of this year upon substantial oampletioai of the exterior o� the buildi.ng. �is year they will prooeed with the tatal construction of the landscaping and the ric,�t-of-way af the rev�nstructed Riae CYeek Road and then over 15 years, �� ,�_ � �: iJ�ili�f� !);�»�� .�4� �:i 4�l .+��i�� . ' i there is an assessnent payback of 5600,000 plus interest which amounts to approximately $665,000. Also, he s�iould note that the c3eveloper has filed a petition to waive the assessnent hearing. Mr. Newman stated the HRA was providing 5400, 000 in assiskance and that assistanoe was essentially divided 70$ to the shopping center and 30$ to the racquet club. That was by agree�nent between both parties. The assessmerrts will also be app�rtioned on that same peroentage. Mr. Newman stated that at the last HRA meeting, Mr. Meyer was asking about the ano�t a� assistanoe and how it relates to soil correction. Staff is not requiring the developer to �wide sukastantiati� for the amo�mt of sflil aorrection work. 7hey generally cb �t do that. Staff has no doubt that the develaper is gc>ing to incur far greater than 5400,000 in a�sts for soil aorrecti�, pukalic utility wsts, e�ta, and to require then to �me in with doam►entati� makes the prooess a little more annbersome. Mr. Newman stated that with the assessmerit agreement, they anticipate the tatal impraienerits to be $L2 million, o� whidl 5665,000 will be assessnents paid by the adjoining property owners. A� part of the public improv�nents, the HRA has agreed to cb oertain landscaping treatments along the public ric�it-of-way, and that the landscaping will r�ot be less than 595,000. Also included in the mai.ntenanoe agreanerrt was that the acljoining property awr�ers wi11, aver a period of time, agree to maintain the ric�t-o�-way. As part of the imprwene.nts, the HRA would be putting in an irrigation system. They will agree to provide water to that irrigation system and use it for watering the properties. Mr. Newman stated or�e thing he wnsic3ered to be a minimal risk was that f rcm the oonstruction sdle�du].ing stanc�oir�, the HRA will �ed to do its work at the front end of the project as far as the ric�►t-of-�ay imprwener�ts. There is always the very reaate risk that the HRA would go in, do the work, have the work substantially completed, and then, for whatever reason, the developer wuld r� into soaae grohlens and not be ahle to start the project. Mr. Newman stated the developer has agreed that if they do not start wnstruction within an 18 month period, they will reimburse the HRA for the oost of the public imprweaer�ts to the extent the HRA is not reimbursed fran other sources (state aid fi.mds, special assessments, etc. ). If the developer has not substantially completed the exterior of the building within the 18 mo�th period, then they will be ohl igated to reimburse fihe HRA for �nreo�vered expenses. Again, the allocati� is 70�/30$. Mr. Newman stated in the alevelopment contract, as in all the HRA's dev el opanent �nt r act s, th ey pr ov ide th at th e dev el ope r s u bm i t th e wnstructio�n d4c�anents to the SRA for review and the HRA has 30 days in which to review the cbcuments. Historically, they used to use a 10 day period, because of the timef raanes developers have, but the flRA raised wnoerns that 10 clays was not an adequate ano�t of time for review because of their having only monthly meetings. It was a question that the developer raised last week, a�d staff's response was that the review for this purpose and qualifying for assistanoe was a prooess separate �a aistin�t fram the -4- a r f : • . �. ��:�� ►1� !1;v��!�� : ��4:.!�; 4� �i:�aa ��, ' � '�Ll�i� review prooess by staff for the issuanae of builc3ing permits. The developer can aame in, suknait pl ans, get pe rmits, a�d coimaence const r uct i on ; but in order to qualify for assistanae under this contract, the HRA is going to r�eed to review the oonstruction doc�nnents and give their appra�val. Mr. Newman stated they are trying to keep this a simple agreement. He had not included an assessmer►t agreenent. The reason he had not was because in reviewing this and in looking at the values that are projected and looking at the size of the develop�aent, they are extremely confident that the Y�uildings will k�e vonstructed in oonformanoe with the d�cxmments. Mr. Meyer stated he would j�st be a�noerr�ed that they not end up in the same situation as they did with the 100 Twin Drive-in property where a develognent has r�t occurred, and in the process mill ions of doll ars have been expended. Mr. George Appleba�nn stated he was one of the general gartners in the project. He stated there was an extreme amount of site work to be done prior to pulling the building permits. They want to pull an excavation permit first and clear the site. 7he ponding areas have to be constructed before the existing drainage and ponding areas can be drained and vacated entirely. 7hat woud also have to be substantially done before the building permits can be pulled. The Health & Racquet C1ub has about a 14 month o�nstruction period, of which 8-9 months are needed j ust to enclose the shell, so that has to be ��r construction at the end of June at the latest. �ey should start getting tenar�ts ir�o the shopping center yet this f all. Mr. Meyer stated Mr. N�wman had stated that it did not seem reasonable to require cbc�mentation for the r�eaessity o� soil impro�vements; yet, it will definitely be rieaessary on the part o� the developer to have soil borings done prior to aoanpleting the plans and spec3f ications. iie thou�t it would l�e worthwhile to ask the developer to subnit oopies of the soil boring tests as a oourtesy. If they are going to use the term "soil correction" in the oontract, it mic�t be appropriate to have copies of the soil correction tests. Mr. Ne�wman stated he had no �ohlen with the developer suimitting copies of the soil aorrectian tests to the HRA, and he was sure the developer would be willing to cb that. He jtLSt wanted to get away fram the develaper having to doc�uaent actual expenses. Ms. Sd�nabel stated that regarding the 18 month o�mpletion of the exterior of the building, when did that time begin?

In gr ant i ng the special use permit, the City Council asked that the HRA seriously consider providing some assistanoe to Mr. Ritterman for improving the o�sic3e ap�pearanae o� the building. 7�e p�oposal i.s to ao�npletely renovate the eastern and southern elevation, giving it the appearance of a new builoling, and substaritially oontributing to the improved appearance of (7entral Avenue in this vicinity. Mr. Robertson stated that at the time the HRA agenda was pre�red, they did not have the a�st estimates. He received those f rwn Mr. Ritterman that afterrioon. Mr. Robertson di�ributed thea to the HRA menbers. Mr. Robertson stated that in his cover letter dated April 14th, Mr. Ritterman stated he has budgeted approximately 560,000 to renovate the o�f ioe, repair the roof. paint the e�cterior a�' the buildinc}�, and repair the fencing. The next two pages of the exhibit showed an estimate for renavating the exterior c� approximately $130, 000, and the rest was f or the interior at $97,000. Mr. Robertson stated staff had j�st reaeived those oost f igures that c1ay. but he sti11 r�eeded soane direction f rcm the HRA at this meeting. As pointed out in his meno to the HRA dated Ap�ri.l 7th, the HRA has prwided assistance in the past in the form o� a se�nd mortgage. �e mast conventional thing would be to cb s�mething similar to that done for the Shorewood Inn. -6- [ b M , �i�_ � �: �+�� il� !;iv1�� W�t�-; 44 �� . ' ; � Mr. Roberts�n skated Mr. Dan Coplan was at the meeting representing Mr. Ritterman who could not be at the meeting. He stated the property was purchased in April for approximately 5240,000; and with the exterior imprwenents and the interior imprwene.nts, the total value af the property would be approximately �450,000. Mr. Dan Coplan stated Ac]vanae C,�apany was a two divisi� oomp�any: (v A general cor�tractor - they specialize in insurance reconstruction; i.e., disaster reconstruction, fire reconstruction for mobile homes, standard resideritial hanes, ao�mercial property, and their major clients were in the church and sdzool line.

Along with that, they are redesic�ing the ir�erior to go alcng with the quality of the exterior so they can project a good image to their clientele. Mr. Robertson stated that at this time, staff has not discussed any dollar ano�nt in terms of HI2A assistanae. ��e closest analogy was the Shorewood Inn renovaticn. Rt�at was a tatal market val ue of S 506, 000, with a second mortgage of �70,000. 7�e prop�rtion for a second mortgage has generally been aro�d a 10:1 to 5:1 ratio. Ms. Schnabel stated the redevelognent proposed by Mr. Ritterman would certainly be a major improvement to that site which has long been an eyesore. The HRA members were in agreement that the HRA should provide some redevelrn►er�t assistanoe to Mr. Ritterm� for the Mic�vest Van Building, and they directed staff to proceed in putting together some f igures on the a�no�t � assistanoe with similar terms to what was done for the Shorewood Inn p�operty.

Mr. Bondow requested on Page 3, Paragraph 4, the last sentence be changed to read: "He expressed concern that the commissions would get involved in solid waste only." UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SVANDA DECLARED THE MINUTES APPROVED AS AMENDED. 1. NEW BUSINESS A. Radon Video The Commission members viewed a videotape regarding radon as televised on KSTP television during late summer of 1987. Mr. Bondow stated he had done some testing for radon in his home with a charcoal detector from Air Check. This detector required 48 to 72 hours of exposure time after which it was sent in for analysis. The results showed a level of 2 picocuries per liter which is below the recommended guideline of 4 picocuries per liter. He has also plac_ed an alphatrack detector in his home which is placed for one year before being read. The results from this detector will provide an average radon level for the 12-month period. t . , JOINT EQC/ENERGY COMMISSION MEETING, APRIL 19, 1988 PAGE 2 Mr. Sielaff indicated he has placed a detector in his home. This , detector is from Air Qualities which takes readings over a 3-month period. This detector will be sent in for analysis on June l. Mr. Bondow stated he is working on an article about radon for the fall issue of the City Newsletter. This article would provide basic information on radon. Mr. Svanda recommended including information on the different types of radon detectors and from where they are available. Mr. Bondow indicated his concern of a potential liability issue. There are also a number of other possibilities to discuss when working on the Workplan including a planning session with someone from the Minnesota Department of Health to speak on the subject. Mr. Svanda asked if KSTP had done sample testing in Fridley as part of their radon report. Mr. Bondow did not know the location of the testing in the Twin Cities area. The work that could be done by the commission includes more publicity, making residents aware of the testing, and what they could do. Ms. Campbell indicated there may be some funds available through the City to purchase detectors, but she would need to do some further work on the DPS grant. Ms. Campbell stated she had contacted the Minnesota Department of Health for brochures but had not yet received the information. Mr. Welf indicated that an article for the hewsletter must be informative, but when an article is written, the City will receive phone calls on what to do next. Before an article is printed, the City must be prepared to respond. Mr. Svanda suggested that this be spelled out as part of the article stating that information is available through State agencies or ot�er groups. Mr. Welf raised the concern that an article would not do the residents any good if the City did not provide additional information. It would seem more direct if the City had detectors available for those who are interested. Ms. Campbell stated she would include these items in the proposed Workplan for the Energy Commission which will be discussed at the next meeting. Mr. Bondow also suggested a program for cable television and a library display with pertinent information on radon. Mr. Dahlberg felt the tone of the article and presentation should not be one of an alarmist, but that of an intent to provide information and that residents can investigate the issue further if they wish. Mr. Bondow felt the article should include relative risk comparisons. . m JOINT EQC/ENERGY C01�4ISSION MEETING, APRIL 19, 1988 PAGE 3 Mr. Svanda thought the article should be informative, but care must � be taken on how the article is structured. Ms. Campbell indicated the deadline for an article for the fall Newsletter is in August but that she would check on the exact date and report back at the next meeting. Mr. Bondow was asked to bring a draft of the article to the next meeting. B. EQC Proposed Workplan The commission reviewed the proposed workplan and discussed the following items: Goal 2, To promote solid waste abatement within City Hall. Under �echnical Assistance, Item 4, it was requested to be changed to read, "Continue to provide a recycling bin for newspapers." Goal 2, Item 5 under Technical Assistance was discussed. Ms. Campbell has obtained sample copies of newsletters printed on recycled or recycleable paper. Ms. Campbell is requesting having the City Newsletter printed on this paper for the fall issue. The current Newsletter is printed in three colors and Ms. Campbell has obtained some prices for printing. She was not sure how these prices compared to the cost of the newsletter as it is currently being done. Mr. Dahlberg recommended using multiple colors only on the cover and fewer colors on the inside pages to help keep the printing costs down. Ms. Campbell stated she would continue to get information. Goal 3, To promote the City's Solid Waste Abatement program. Under Action Item A, the statement should read "To publicize solid waste crisis." Goal 3, Technical Assistance, Item 1, involves a video on recycling. The commission has requested seeing the video prior to being shown on cable TV. Goal 3, Technical Assistance, Item 2, regarding an insert on recycling, Ms. Campbell stated she has contacted five haulers in the City and three have agreed to insert with their billings a letter to encourage recycling. Basically the letter states that recycling will help keep hauling rates down. The City will provide the letter which can be put on the haulers letterhead or be signed by the hauler so the letter appears to come from them. Mr. Dahlberg recommended the letter state that the haulers are working with the City in this endeavor. Ms. Campbell stated the letter asked residents to contact the City if they have any questions or want further information. Goal 3, Technical Assistance, Mr. Svanda recommended the addition of an Item 3 to indicate that the commission or the City work with the curbside contractor to enhance the curbside program. He would also like < � JOINT EQC/ENERGY COIyR�iISSION MEETING, APRIL 19, 1988 PAGE 4 � to have a representative from Super Cycle come to a meeting to talk � about different thingsthey are thinking about to enhance the program. Ms. Campbell indicated that Super Cycle had recommended door hangers but felt at a cost of $1.00 each this was too expensive. Mr. Welf thought it might help recycling if the haulers would place a sticker on the inside lid of garbage receptables which says recycle. Each time people put garbage in the container they would be reminded to recycle. Goal 3, Action Item B, Technical Assistance Item 1, for signage for the S.O.R.T. site. Ms. Campbell stated a sign has been requested for the northeast corner of 71st. There is a problem in determining who owns that piece of property. The County does not want a sign placed with their sign on the arena property. Staff have recommended submitting the request for a permit and they would take care of any problems. Ms. Campbell hopes to have this done by the end of summer. Mr. Dahlberg asked if a temporary sign could be put up. Ms. Campbell indicated that permits for temporary signs are short term, three noncon secutive 10 day periods. She did not feel this would be a viable option. Goal 3, Technical Assistance Item 2, regarding curbside reminder signs. Ms. Campbell reported that the construction of the signs has been completed and she will now be working on the distribution of the signs. Goal 3, Technical Assistance Item 3, regarding "Rudy Refuse". The character, Rudy Refuse, will be participating in the 49-er Days. Ms. Campbell did not include the education program involving Springbrook Nature Center and their program because that is still being worked on at , this time. Ms. Campbell hopes to have more information at the next meeting. Goal 3, Technical Assistance Item 4, regarding banners. Ms. Campbell passed around a catalog showing examples of banners mounted on street lights which would be put up to identify the recycling areas and days for recycling. Mr. Svanda asked if they would complement the household signs. Ms. Campbell stated that these banners would be placed in commercial areas. She has seen these banners used in other cities, and they have a good appearance. Mr. Dahlberg suggested placement of permanent signs, such as those used for snow removal routes. These could be mounted on posts and would be �ood for others travelling through the city to see. Ms. Campbell stated this could be added as Item 6, but felt there may be some problems with this type of sign if there would be changes in the recycling program. . • J • JOINT EQC/ENERGY COMNiISSION MEETING, APRIL 19, 1988 PAGE 5 Goal 3, Technical Assistance Item 5, regarding brochures. Ms. Campbell felt the brochure design could remain the same. The dates will be changed accordingly. Goal 3, Action Item C, regarding recycling bins. Ms. Campbell indicated the Technical Assistance Item pertained to Action Item D. Ms. Campbell is recommending the blue bins at this time. These bins seem to be associated with successful programs such as that in Plymouth. Mr. Dahlberg asked how many bins could be purchased. Ms. Campbell was not sure. The Lions have committed $4,000 for bins. Depending on the cost, the City could likely obtain 400 - 700 of these bins. Ms. Campbell stated she would like to purchase 4,000 bins but the cost would be over $20,000. It has been proven that bins increase participation. At the next meeting, she will provide some prices on bins. Ms. Campbell indicated the City may be willing to provide additional funds if it can be proven that these bins increased participation. Goal 3, Action Item D, regarding purchase of 4,000 bins, is contingent upon the completion of the previous Action item. The Technical Assistance informatior. as listed pertains to Action Item E. Goal 3, Action Item E, pertaining to a lottery. Ms. Campbell was not sure how a lottery for recycling would be received. A short term investment in L"nis activiLy is proposed, because it has been proven that after a lottery is over, part icipation ia1Zs off markedly. Mr. Dahlberg recommended the addition of Goal 3, Action Item F, Composting. This is an area with great potential and felt it would be good to start to establish some direction for the program. One suggestion was providing information on backyard composting. Mr. Svanda added that education also needs to be done which may be achieved through information in the fall Newsletter. Mr. Dahlberg expressed interest in a clean-up day but understands a previous effort resulted in a number of problems. He felt some of the difficulties could be eliminated by being specific about what will and will not be picked up. He would like to see this included although he feels it will be difficult to get approval. Composting is available and provides a service which should perhaps be kept separate at this time. Ms. Campbell added that maintenance is also an issue. She thought that an article in the fall newsletter would be a good place to start. This would provide education. Another issue would be how to inform residents that the compost is available for their use when it is ready. Ms. Campbell stated she may use the Fridley Focus to publicize. JOINT EQC/ENERGY COMMISSION MEETING, APRIL 19, 1988 PAGE 6 _ Goal 4 regarding hazardous waste was added because this will be the , next issue after solid waste. Mr. Sielaff indicated that household hazardous waste is another item that should be included. Perhaps at this time this could be an educational program. Mr. Dahlberg expressed an interest in environmental design issues and obtained information from the City that covers standards for signs, landscaping, etc. He indicated that at one time the City had a design approval board which may be something the commission would want to get involved with in the future. Ms. Campbell indicated that Mr. Robinson saw the EQC as reviewing but not as an approving capacity in this area. Mr. Dahlberg indicated that another environmental concern was groundwater contamination. Mr. Dahlberg stated another area of concern is that of asbestos and its removal from buildings. This involves liability issues. The removal of asbestos is monitored by the Department of Health and the disposal is monitored by the MPCA. Mr. Bondow indicated there are companies that handle asbestos removal and disposal and these companies are licensed by the State. Mr. Svanda indicated that this is monitored at the State level and felt there was nothing the commission could do about that issue at this level. Mr. Svanda recommended the Action Item to read: "To investigate trends in hazardous waste management and other environmental issues, ie. groundwater, unerground storage tanks, plastic recycling. Mr. Dahlberg stated that Federal monies are available, up to $50,000, for the cleanup of abandoned hazardous waste sites and asked if any such sites were located in Fridley. Mr. Svanda did not think there were any Superfund sites in Fridley. 3. OTHER BUSINESS A. Items for the Next Agenda � Ms. Campbell asked if there were additional items to be included on the next agenda along with the Energy Commission Workplan and Grant Updates. Mr. Svanda requested that the Election of Officers be included on the May agenda. . . � JOINT EQC/ENERGY COIrR�IISSION MEETING, APRIL 19, 1988 PAGE 7 ADJOURNMENT MOTION by Mr. Bondow, seconded by Mr. Dahlberg, to adjourn the meeting.
