Title
Adjustment to PurchaseAgreement Archer-Kath 1358 Mississippi Street
Background
Last November the Authority approved purchasing the property at 1358 Mississippi Street. The motion
approved by the Authority gave staff and/or the Chairperson to make any changes and sign documents
necessary to close on the property. At the time of approval,we estimated the cost to be $170,000. As
negotiations dragged on and values rose, the final cost was $175,000.
For their records, the City Finance Department hasrequested the Authority adopt a motion recognizing
this increase in cost.
Recommendation
Staff recommends the Authority make and approve a motion approving thefinal purchase price of
$175,000 for the property at 1358 Mississippi Street.

Vision Statement
We believe Fridley will be a safe, vibrant, friendly and stable home for families and businesses.

Title
Approval of Resolution 2022-03 Related to Completion of Work at OldCity Hall Campus
Background
The former City Hall site was a combination of land owned by the Authority and City.Prior to sale of the
property, the City and Authority agreed that the property would be sold for fair market value, the
Authority reimbursed for all redevelopment expenses and remaining funds returned to the City. After
the closing, the City determined it was advantageous for the Authority to keep the sales proceeds
(approximately $1M) for future development expenses.
In December of 2020, the Authority adopted a resolution to hold onto the sales proceeds and spend
them on the new campus. The thought was that this money could be used to fund an extension of
rd
Locke Park Drive up to 73Avenue. Discussions with MN Commercial Rail have stalled out and they
currently have no interest in granting an easement over the rail line that sits just north of the new
Municipal Campus.
The redevelopment of the old City Hall site is nearing completion and will be occupied later this summer.
The last bit of public work needing completion is the removal of the former frontage road, emergency
access, grading and installation of a trail. The City does not have funds available to complete the work.
Staff is requesting that the Authority spend approximately $200,000 from the remaining sales proceeds
to finish the work needed on the site. The attached resolution allows for this change to happen.
Vision Statement
We believe Fridley will be a safe, vibrant, friendly and stable home for families and businesses.

begin as soon as mid-May.
