THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING REOPENED AT 7:21 P.M.
Paul Bolin,
HRA Assistant Executive Director, stated that the proposed development will have
approximately 259 apartment units, contained in (3) separate buildings. Each building is
proposed to be 4-stories, with 3 stories of living above indoor, ground level parking. Two of the
rd
buildings proposed have 101 units and the 3 building has 57 units. Buildings 1 and 2 are
proposed to be connected to each other through a skyway.
Mr. Bolin
stated that the acquisition of the development parcels started in 2006, the planning
started in 2007, the demolition started 2009 and marketing started 2012. Discussions with
Trident started in June of 2012was signed in the fall of 2013,
drafting of the Development Agreement started early in 2014, the Term Sheet was developed in
early March 2014 and the Development Agreement was drafted in late March. The Agreement
was finalized in May 2014.
Mr. Bolin
said that Trident will purchase the property for a Fair Market Value of $6.25 / sq. ft.
Trident will borrow against the entire site to construct improvements on all 3 lots, as well as
construct building #1. Trident will
lots. (Tracking & documenting actual costs) Trident will be given a credit and these costs will be
deducted from the purchase price, on the settlement date. Staff recommends approval of the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority Meeting of June 5, 2014 3
contract for private redevelopment, which includes the land sale, of the properties known as
Gateway Northeast.
Commissioner Backlund
asked for clarification on page 18 where it talks about insurance. A
lot of government contracts have a minimum insurance rating of 7 or something like that; he was
surprised that was not included in these types of agreements.
Chairperson Commers
agreed that the liability potential seemed like a reasonable suggestion.
He asked if Mr. Fink knew what insurance was used for these liabilities.
Roger Fink,
Cielo Partners, replied that the insurance placed on large construction projects is
through Zurich Insurance Group. Occasionally it may have been someone else but he expects for
this project it will be Zurich.
Commissioner Backlund
did not know the rating of Zurich and thought it was something that
should be considered to be included in this agreement.
Vickie Loher,
Development Consultant, took note and would make sure that was taken into
account.
Chairperson Commers
asked if the HRA would be responsible for anything associated with the
infrastructure like the fence along University Avenue or the water main. He thought that was
part of the common areas.
Mr. Bolin
noted that the improvements referenced earlier were on page 47, Schedule F. They
will be installed by the developer and the cost deducted from the purchase price.
Chairperson Commers
asked what would happen in the event of a default.
Ms. Loher
replied that if the developer would fail to complete the improvements of the first lots
the HRA would not issue a certificate of completion. The Authority would exercise the lot
release price and regain fee title to lots 2 and 3, utilizing the lot release prices that are set forth in
the agreement, with the understanding the Authority is subordinating their right of recapture to
the developer.
Chairperson Commers
said that the original financing will take care of the public
improv and 3 the Authority has the right to take those lots
back.
Ms. Loher
replied that is correct.
MOTION
by Commissioner Backlund to close the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner
Eggert.

Commissioner Eggert
asked when construction would start.
Mr. Fink
thanked the staff in working together to get the legal details done for this transaction.
The construction plans for the first building are completed and they will go out for competitive
bidding. They applied for a building permit today and the appraisal is expected in next week.
The plat is under review at Anoka County, the City has the title transfer matter to complete and it
sounds like that will go through the process by mid-July which will fit well with the schedule. If
the bids come in over budget they will have to go through the bids to try and close the gap.
5.Approval of Phase XI Housing Replacement Program
Paul Bolin,
HRA Assistant Executive Director, stated that in December 2010, the Authority
approved an amended and restated plan for the HRP. Parcels can be added by HRA Resolution,
provided the parcels meet required criteria. Once in the program and a new home is constructed,
the Authority is able to collect increment for 15 years on the improvements. Staff recommends
approval of the resolution amending the Housing Replacement Program to include Phase XI.
Mr. Bolin
added that since the Authority is not meeting until July, staff would like to get bids to
demolish this property, and move forward with demolition in the next month, so the property can
be put out for sale.
MOTION
by Commissioner Gabel to adopt a resolution adding Phase XI to the Housing
Replacement Program. Seconded by Commissioner Holm.

THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY
6.Approval of Agreement to Purchase 7011 University Avenue NE
Housing and Redevelopment Authority Meeting of June 5, 2014 5
Paul Bolin
, HRA Assistant Executive Director, stated that negotiations began on this property
last October. The appraisal said it is worth $3,555,000 if shovel ready. It is estimated that it will
cost nearly $900,000 to make the site shovel ready, which is how staff arrived at the price of
$2,600,000. There were many counter offers from the seller, but eventually the seller agreed to
take the original offer of $2.6m. The closing will not happen until August or September so there
is time to look at the mechanics on how to fund this purchase and pay for the demolition work.
Mr. Bolin
stated that the funds for the purchase and redevelopment of this property will come
from the following:
TIF district to be created
Interfund loan from HRA & loan from City
The loans will be paid back through future land sales and the TIF District. Staff recommends the
Authority approve a motion accepting the purchase agreement for the Columbia Arena property
located at 7011 University Avenue NE.
Chairperson Commers
said that the funding would evenly be divided between the city and the
Authority.
Mr. Bolin
replied that no discussions have been held that would differ from that.
Commissioner Holm
asked if this is structured as a purchase of property by the HRA.
Mr. Bolin
said that is correct; the HRA would hold the title of the property; the City may not
buy land to hold for redevelopment.
Commissioner Holm
asked if the city would lend HRA money to make sure the HRA is
properly funded so the HRA funds are not strained and the Authority has the ability to pay.
Mr. Bolin
replied that is correct.
Chairperson Commers
ability to pay is behind the agreement that the cost
would be evenly divided between the HRA and the city. The Authority will know more where
they are at financially after a cash flow analysis is completed.
Commissioner Holm
said this is a great opportunity for the city and the HRA to get control of
this property.
Commissioner Eggert
asked what the mechanics were for signing the purchase agreement and
if the funding arrangement was contingent to closing.
Mr. Bolin
replied that there are no contingencies on the HRA ability to fund this purchase. The
purchase agreement is before Chairperson Commers tonight for signature. The check for the
earnest money is ready to go.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority Meeting of June 5, 2014 6
Commissioner Backlund
asked if there should be a motion authorizing to pay the $5,000
engineering fee that was agreed upon as part of this deal.
Mr. Bolin
replied that is listed in part of the purchase agreement so by approving the purchase
agreement that will be covered on page 4, section 8.1.
Commissioner Holm
noted that item 9 where it talks about the closing date occurring 15
word days is missing.
MOTION
by Commissioner Backlund to approve the Agreement to Purchase 7011 University
Avenue NE. Seconded by Commissioner Eggert.

THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY
Chairperson Commers
said that some people use that property for parking when they use the
park. He asked if there would be anything needed to be done legally to clarify this parking.
Scott Hickok
, Community Development Director, said that staff is working with Jack Kirk to
preserve 50 stalls for future development. There was an informal arrangement to have parking in
that area for soccer games. No formal arrangement was needed because it was always publicly
owned. If a private development goes in that area an easement would be needed.
Informational Items
1.Housing and Loan Program Update
Paul Bolin
, HRA Assistant Executive Director, reported that in May there were two loans closed
making a total of 5 year to date. There were two remodel advisor visits which were the first two
for the year. In May there were 4 Home Energy Squad visits and in next few weeks residents
will receive a letter explaining the new program in the mail.
Chairperson Commers
said that CEE came out to his home and for $50 they put in 36 light
bulbs at no charge. There were three people there for three hours and when they are done you
get a fine written report. This is a good program and $50 well spent.

To: Wally Wysopal, City Manager / Executive HRA Director
From: Paul Bolin, Asst. Executive HRA Director
Subject: Resolution to Create Interfund Loan - Columbia Arena
As the Authority moves forward with the acquisition and demolition of the Columbia
Arena property, it may recover its costs through the creation of a TIF District. The
buildings are substandard, as determined in a study done by LHB Engineering, making
the site eligible for inclusion in a TIF District. The Authority can pay for upfront costs
through loans from its General Fund and the City. The interfund loans will be repaid
from land sales proceeds and future taxes generated on the property.
The attached memorandum from Attorney Casserly provides more detail on the
mechanics of the loans. The attached resolutions allow for the repayment of the loans
to happen. The first resolution formally authorizes the loaning of money to the future
TIF District and the repayment of money to the general fund. The second resolution
declares the HRA's intent to create the TIF District.
Recommendation:
In order to recover the Authority's investment in the acquisition and demolition of the
Columbia Arena site, Staff recommends the Authority adopt the attached resolution,
approving an interfund loan between the HRA General Fund and the future Columbia
Arena TIF District.
Further, staff recommends the Authority adopt the attached resolution determining that
the Columbia Arena site is occupied by structurally substandard buildings and is to be
included in a, yet to be created, TIF District.

INFORMATIONAL ITEM
HRA MEETING OF AUGUST 7, 2014
Date: July 30, 2014
To: Wally Wysopal, City Manager / Executive HRA Director
From: Paul Bolin, Asst. Executive HRA Director
Subject: HRA Fund Balances ___
On an annual basis, for future project planning purposes, staff has worked with Attorney
Casserly and Development Consultant Greg Johnson in preparing a review of the
Authorities fund balances. AS we begin to think about ongoing and future projects, this
helps to identify moneys available for funding these projects projects. These cash flow
projections are not an accounting tool, rather they are a snap shot of the balances and
obligations for each of the HRA's funds.
On Thursday night, Greg Johnson will provide a brief overview of the attached cash
flow projections. Attorney Casserly, Greg Johnson, Darin Nelson and I will then be
available to take questions on the cash flow projections.
