CONSIDERATION OF LOT SPLIT REQUEST, LS #80-02, 6041 and 6031 -3RD STREET, BY FRIDLEY HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY: Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated this lot split involves three 40 foot lots which have been purchased by the HRA and wish to split in order to make two building sites from these three lots. He state the Planning Commission has recommended approval of the lot split. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to grant Lot Split, LS #80-02. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. Councilman Fitzpatrick raised the question on the size of the lots covered under LS #80-01. He felt it would be better for the area to have two 80 foot lots, rather than three 50 to 60 foot lots. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated they are trying to put a limit on the cost for the sale of -the lots, around $4,000 each, to meet the requirements of moderate income housing. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated he talked with the,City Planner, Jerry Boardman,regarding this matter, and in Mr. Boardman's discussions with HUD, what they propose on these lots is to sell them for around $4,000, plus the cost of special assessments, and this figure is substantially less than what they paid for the land with the dwelling on it. He stated the provisions of the sale is something to the affect that if the family buying the home con- tinues to live on the property for 10 years, a write-down will be written off. If the family chooses to sell the property or ceases to live on it, the City would have the second mortgage and the difference between the cost of the property to the City and what the buyer paid for the lot would have to be paid. Mr. Brunsell stated this is part of the large family housing program for which the City has a grant and they will draw from this for the write-down. Councilman Fitzpatrick felt it wouldn't make a difference if they had two lots selling for $6,000 each or three lots selling for $4,000 each. Mr. Herrick stated, from the standpoint on what the City would recover from the sale of the lots, Councilman Fitzpatrick's point is true. He stated the Council may wish to consider what is compatible with the neighborhood probably more than the loss of $4,000 which might be the loss of a site for another home. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated another consideration is that the land and the construction of the home have to be kept within a certain dollar limit. Councilwoman Moses stated, in talking with Mr. Boardman, the figure she recalled was that the cost for the land and the home couldn't exceed $52,000. She stated, depending on how the bids came in from the contractors for con- struction of the home, the difference up to $52,000 would be paid for the lot. Councilman Fitzpatrick felt the money consideration here was not persuasive, but the real consideration is whether there be two 80 foot lots or three 53 foot lots. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, APRIL 23, 1980 PAGE 4 Mr. Boardman stated that at this point, they have not requested an alley right-of-way vacation, but are looking at that possibility later. The two properties to the south are presently using the alley, but the property to the north has access other than the alley. He stated this house has already been torn down.
