UPDATE REGARDING HOLLY CENTER DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND APPROVING THE SIGNAGE PLAN FOR HOLLY CENTER: Mr. Qureshi stated the City has been working with the owners of the Holly Shopping Center to upgrade the center. The HRA approved the development agreement, and that agreement has been fully executed by the HRA, Heartland Realty, the owners of Holly Center, and it has been filed against the property. Mr. Qureshi stated one of the requirements of the agreement was that Heart- land would submit plans to the HRA for the upgrading of the center. They have already repaired the roof of the restaurant. They will be nutting up a new facade and signage on the front and a new pylon. Mr. Qureshi stated the commissioners had in their agenda the plans for the new facade and the upgrading of the total signage. Mr. Qureshi stated the commissioners had also received a rendering copy that showed how the center will look after the improvements are made. He stated the City feels this will certainly be a good and sizeable improve- ment to the center. HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, FEBRUARY 14, 1985 PAGE 2 Mr. Qureshi stated one requirement in the agreement was that Heartland was to acquire the old Phillips 66 station before March 1 . He understood they have already purchased the station, and the next phase will be the HRA acquiring the station and taking it down (item #2 of agenda). Mr. Qureshi stated action needed by the HRA was approval of Resolution No. HRA 4-1985, "Resolution Approving the Construction Plans for Improvements to Holly Center as Submitted by the Heartland University Commercial Limited Partnership". Ms. Svendsen expressed some concern about the tenants of Holly Center regarding the new signage. She had been informed that one tenant was not very happy about the new signage. She wondered if the tenants had been given any kind of information regarding what was happening with the Center Would the new signage result in a cost to the tenants, and had the tenants been informed of this? Mr. Qureshi stated all the tenants were notified when the center was sold to the new partnership. He would assume the new owners have talked to the tenants. Realistically, if the owners are putting money into the center to make it a more viable center, he would assume there would be some cost to the tenants eventually. As far as improvements on the building and the signage, the HRA was not involved at all . The only involvement by the HRA and the City was in the landscaping and road access. Mr. Rasmussen stated he would also sympathize with the tenants if they had not received proper notice and if the HRA should be notifying tenants of these kinds of things. After all , the HRA was spending a great deal of money to help the center out. Mr. Commers stated that maybe in the future when the HRA enters into private contracts for development, the HRA should consider requiring the developer to present evidence or require the develoner to make a presenta- tion to the tenants. They could make that Hart of the development contract. It was a non-technical type of requirement, but they seem to consistently have this problem with tenants getting upset. The more the HRA can do to alleviate this problem, the better off they will be. Mr. Coroners stated the HRA would also like something in their files from the city inspectors who give final approval that would indicate that all the construction meets local codes. MOTION by Mr. Prieditis, seconded by Ms. Svendsen, to approve Resolution No. HRA 4-1985, "Resolution Approving the Construction Plans for Improve- ments to Holly Center as Submitted by the Heartland University Commercial Limited Partnership". Mr. Qureshi stated he would provide the HRA with a copy of the building permit so they know that the construction meets all state and local codes. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, FEBRUARY 14, 1985 PAGE 3 2. CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. HRA 1-1985 ORDERING DEMOLITION AND REMOVAL OF STRUCTURES AND RECEIVING QUOTES FOR TEARING DOWN we 111 f 11 . 11 c Mr. Qureshi stated the City has gone ahead and received written quotes for the demolition of the Phillips station. The three quotes were as follows: Renollet Trucking $ 4,560 Gammon Bros. , Inc. 10,000 Park Construction Co. 12,600 Mr. Qureshi stated if it was the HRA's desire to award the contract, he would recommend they award the contract to Renollet Trucking for $4,560. MOTION by Mr. Prieditis, seconded by Ms. Svendsen, to approve Resolution No. HRA 1-1985, "Resolution ordering Demolition and Removal of Structures", with the following rewording in #2: "That the Public Works Director, John G. Flora, City Hall , Fridley, Mn. , is hereby authorized and directed to draw plans and specifications for this work and to accept the bid from Renollet Truckin g_ in the amount of $4,560 for the demolition and removal of said structures. ' UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 3. CONSIDERATION OF REFUNDING OF HRA BONDS: Mr. Inman stated the HRA was being asked to do the following two things: 1 . To approve Resolution No. HRA 3-1985 which was the modified Redevelopment Plan, which simply added increment districts 4 and 5 into the plan and made everything into one group. 2. To approve Resolution No. HRA 5-1985 asking the City Council to approve and adopt the modified Redevelopment Plan. Mr. Inman stated that on March 14, the HRA will be giving the final authorization of the bonding and on March 18, the City Council will be giving final approval . Mr. Inman stated Ms. Arlin Waelti of O'Connor & Hannan was at the meeting to answer any questions and explain the document. Ms. Waelti stated that in working with the refunding, her responsibility was very narrow. It was an area that required a lot of intense scrutiny of documents. The only part they were covering at the meeting was making sure that all the prior redevelopment plans and tax increment plans were in order for purposes of the refund. This document was the master plan. The reason they have a document that looked like this was that under state law, they can walk through the statute and set un the system by which they can take tax increment from one tax increment district and use it elsewhere in HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, FEBRUARY 14, 1985 PAGE 4 the project, but in the statute there was nothing that was definitively called a master plan. Ms. Waelti stated that tax increment district #4 and #5 have been established. The reason for the modified Redevelopment Plan was to tuck what the HRA had validly done into a document so the master plan works and allows those funds to flow from one tax increment district to another. The reason she was very concerned about this document was because tax increment financing was being very carefully scrutinized in the Legis- lature. If she had to testify in the Legislature, she would be very comfortable with this document. Ms. Waelti reviewed the document with the HRA. MOTION by Mr. Rasmussen, seconded by Ms. Svendsen, to approve Resolution 1157-ARA 3-1985, "A Resolution Modifying the Redevelopment Plan for Redevelop- ment Project No. 1 Pursuant to the Provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Sections 462.411 to 462.716, Inclusive, As Amended, and Modifying the Tax Increment Financing Plans for Tax Increment Districts No. 1 Through 5, All Located Within Redevelopment Project No. 1 , Pursuant to the Provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.71 to 273.86, Inclusive, As Amended, for the Purpose of Refunding General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds of the Authority". UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. MOTION by Mr. Rasmussen, seconded by Ms. Svendsen, to approve Resolution No. HRA 5-1985, "Resolution Requesting the City Council of the City of Fridley to Approve and Adopt the Modified Redevelopment Plan for Redevelop- ment Project No. 1 and the Modified Tax Increment Financing Plans for the Tax Increment Financing Districts Within Redevelopment Project No. 1 to Facilitate the Refunding of the General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds of the Authority". UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. Mr. Coroners stated this was a job well done and he thanked Ms. Waelti for coming to the meeting. 4. CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. HRA 2-1985 DESIGNATING OFFICIAL DEPOSITORIES FOR THE FRIDLEY HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY: Mr. Inman stated this resolution was started last year, and he felt they should continue with it as it protects both the HRA and the Fridley State Bank. The HRA members expressed some concern about Fridley State Bank being designated as the depository for funds for the HRA when there are other banks located in Fridley. Mr. Commers stated he felt they should review and approve the designation and depository on an annual basis. HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, FEBRUARY 14, 1985 PAGE 5 MOTION by Ms. Svendsen, seconded by Mr. Prieditis, to approve Resolution No. HRA 2-1985, "Resolution Designating Official Depositories for the Fridley Housing & Redevelopment Authority". UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 5. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: Mr. Inman stated the HRA had the following financial information: 1 . Jan. 1 , 1984 to Dec. 31 , 1984, Financial Statement (unaudited) 2. Billing for City Services in the Target Project Area through Nov. 30, 1984 3. Billing for City Services in the Target Project Area through Dec. 31 , 1984. MOTION by Mr. Rasmussen, seconded by Mr. Prieditis, to approve the billings for City Services in the Target Project Area through Nov. 30, 1984, and Dec. 31 , 1984. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 6. OTHER BUSINESS: a. HRA Director Mr. Rasmussen stated he felt there was a definite conflict of interest by having the City Manager as the HRA Director. He felt maybe the HRA Director should be a full-time person working with the HRA but also working with city staff to coordinate things. He just felt a little uncomfortable with this type of situation. Mr. Commers stated the HRA has addressed this issue a little in the past, but it could certainly be discussed again. Mr. Rasmussen suggested the HRA have an informal meeting so that he could be brought up to date on what has been discussed in the past. The commissioners agreed to have an informal meeting at a time con- venient to all the members. ADJOURNMENT: MOTION by Mr. Rasmussen, seconded by Mr. Prieditis, to adjourn the meeting. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Chairperson Coroners declared the Feb. 14, 1985, Housing & Redevelopment Authority meeting adjourned at 8:55 p.m. Respectfully su itted, Lynn Saba, Recording Secretary 1 MEMO TO: Nasim Qureshi, City Manager MEMO FROM: John Flora, Public Works Director MEMO DATE: March 7, 1985 REGARDING: Traffic Improvement at Trunk Highway 65 and West Moore Lake Drive/Central Avenue Intersection With the establishment of the modified redevelopment plan for Redevelopment Project No. 1 which includes the 100 Twin Drive-In property, it is expected that the City initiate plans to improve the intersection of State Trunk Highway 65 and West Moore Lake Drive/Central Avenue in order to inititate or complement the development of this area. The City Council retained Short, Elliot and Hendrickson (SEH) consultants to study the area and propose possible solutions to the anticipated traffic congestion. Public meetings were held and alternatives discussed. A concensus was reached and approved by the City Council on February 25, 1985. SEH has submitted a contract proposal to design the intersection improvement for a maximum fee of $30,750: The final plans and specifications plus agreements will have to be approved and signed by both the Anoka County Highway Department and MnDot. This will take at least a year to accomplish. Accordingly the earliest construction start would not be until the summer of 1986. Since this improvement directly supports the redevelopment plans, it would be appropriate for the Housing & Redevelopment Authority to pass a resolution in support of this improvement, obtain any necessary right of way, and fund the design portion of the work. Attached is a resolution for the Housing & Redevelopment approval.

QURESHI - DIRECTOR 3/7/5/1 3 MEMO TO: Nasim Qureshi, City Manager MEMO FROM: John Flora, Public Works Director MEMO DATE: March 7, 1985 REGARDING: 5th Street Improvement Based upon the development at the Fridley Community Plaza area to include the Clinic, Office Building and Target , the City and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority improved 5th Street between 63rd Avenue and Mississippi Street in 1983. In order to facilitate and provide for the development of the vacant and underdeveloped property west of 5th Street to include the Moon Plaza, it is prudent to extend the improvement of 5th Street between 61st and 63rd Avenues. The City Council approved the improvement of 5th Street between 61st and 63rd Avenues at their February 25, 1985 meeting. These improvements would widen the intersection at 63rd Avenue to include a median to complement the North side of the intersection and widen the street to 40 feet for safer traffic movement and parking. Total cost of this improvement is estimated at $145,300.00, with $27,500 to be assessed to the adjoining property owners. Since this street improvement will substantially benefit the redevelopment of Tax Increment District No. 1 , it would be appropriate for the Housing & Redevelopment Authority to support and fund this improvement. Attached is a resolution for the Housing & Redevelopment Authority which authorizes the improvements for this of the project.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Fridley that: 1 . The Housing and Redevelopment Authority approves the plans for improving 5th Street between 61st and 63rd Avenues. 2.
