President Enck introduced for discussion Item 4, Joint Development Proposal Concept Consideration and Authorization to Prepare a Purchase Agreement for City-Owned Property at 7500-7528 42"a Avenue North (Improvement Project No. 665). Mr. Kirk McDonald, Director of Community Development, stated staff is requesting concept consideration and authorization to prepare a purchase agreement with the developers for a joint development proposal for the city-owned site at 7500-7528 42"a Avenue North. The proposal is for two uses: a Culvers restaurant on the western portion of the site and three office condominium buildings (eight separate ownership units) on the eastern portion of the site. Mr. McDonald updated the EDA on the proposal. The developers are offering a combined price of $510,000 for the site, or $4.62 per square foot. The developer's representative, RSDS, initially proposed a brokerage fee of $40,000 to be paid by the city. At the EDA's request, the brokerage fee has been eliminated from the proposal. He also reported that storm water ponding issues have been discussed with the developer. He illustrated the revised site plan. Commissioner Sommer initiated discussion regarding the difference between the appraised price and the proposed purchase price. Mr. Ken Doresky, Community Development Specialist, commented that the appraisal did not take into consideration the property's limitations as mandated by the MPCA. President Enck objected to the city bearing the costs for monitoring and mitigation plans related to the contaminated soil cleanup. He noted Electronic Industries should be obligated to pay as they caused the contamination. Mr. Dan Donahue, City Manager, explained that staffwould clarify this issue. Mr. John Seibert, JCS Development, was recognized. He noted it would likely take four months to close on the property and three months to complete construction. Mr. McDonald recon-mended that a shared parking arrangement be explored at the site between JCS Development and the Sunshine Factory Restaurant. June 23, 2003 IMP. PROJECT 749 Item 5 IMP. PROJECT 734 Item 6 BROOKSTONE, INC. Item 7 EDA Minutes Page 2 The EDA expressed support for the joint development proposal, and directed staff to pursue a purchase agreement. President Enck introduced for discussion Item 5, Discussion Regarding Development Proposal for City-Owned Property at 5501 Boone Avenue North and Direction to Proceed (Improvement Project No. 749). Mr. Kirk McDonald, Director of Community Development, indicated staff is requesting EDA discussion and direction to proceed regarding a development proposal from Project for Pride in Living (PPL), for the city-owned site at 5501 Boone Avenue North. The proposal is for the construction of a 70-unit residential building split between owner-occupied condominiums and affordable rental units. He expressed support for the proposal based on the following reasons: the proposal utilizes the entire site, meets the CDBG eligibility requirements, provides potential extra off-street parking for North Ridge Care Center, replaces some existing rental units in the city which will be lost due to redevelopment efforts, and pays the city market value for the property, less soil correction costs. The EDA expressed concern with combining owner-occupied units with rental units, and questioned whether PPL would provide assurance that at least 50% of the units would be owner occupied. Mr. Chris Wilson, Project for Pride in Living, was recognized. He stated 50% of the units would be owner-occupied and covered by a separate homeowners association. He noted PPL is undertaking a marketing study to determine the market for the proposed owner and rental units. The EDA held a brief discussion regarding the soils. Mr. Wilson noted his intention of installing pilings and underground parking. The EDA expressed support for the proposed project at 5501 Boone Avenue North, and directed staff to continue coordination regarding the potential redevelopment of the property. President Enck introduced for discussion Item 6, Discussion Regarding Development Proposal for City-Owned Property at 4317 Nevada Avenue North and Private Property at 4301 Nevada Avenue North (Improvement Project No. 734). Mr. Kirk McDonald, Director of Community Development, requested EDA discussion and direction regarding a development proposal submitted by Master Civil & Construction Engineering for the city-owned site at 4317 Nevada Avenue North and the private property at 4301 Nevada Avenue North. The development proposal is for the replacement of two existing single-family homes with twelve units of market-rate townhomes. The developer is also desirous of acquiring 4415 Nevada Avenue North (the property to the north) for the construction of six additional units. Following discussion, the EDA declined pursuing the proposal due to the city assistance requested and the proposed density. The EDA indicated support for a lower density project at the location without city financial assistance. President Enck introduced for discussion Item 7, Motion Acknowledging Expiration of Letter of Intent with Brookstone, Inc. and Agreement to Continue Coordination on Informal Basis for the redevelopment of the city center area. Mayor Enck reported that Brahm Akradi, co-owner of New Hope Mall, has agreed to serve on the City Center Task Force as Robert Rappaport's replacement (owner of Winnetka Center). June 23, 2003 ADJOURNMENT The EDA expressed support to continue coordination on an informal basis with Brookstone, Inc. for the redevelopment of the city center area. Motion was made by Commissioner Sommer, seconded by Commissioner Gwin- Lenth, to adjourn the meeting. All present voted m favor. Motion camed.

The request has been reviewed by the city's bond counsel from Dorsey & Whitney, who is recommending that Broadway LaNel pay the EDA $50,000 to satisfy its repayment obligations under the agreement. Staff recommends that the EDA approve the enclosed resolution relating to a redevelopment agreement with Broadway LaNel, a limited partnership; approving termination of the redevelopment agreement and authorizing execution of various documents, which approves the elimination of the interest rate reduction program, and approves the payment to the city. POLICY/PAST PRACTICE The City Council and EDA have approved similar resolutions in the past to address redevelopment projects and needs in the city. BACKGROUND The city has received the attached correspondence from LaNel Financial Group regarding the Broadway LaNel/Anthony James Apartments multifamily revenue bonds. The correspondence pertains to the interest rate reduction program contained in the redevelopment agreement with the HRA entered into in 1985 (a copy of the redevelopment agreement is attached). LaNel Financial is requesting that the HRA waive the provisions of the interest reduction program specifically with respect to section 4.08 having to do with the lien and the required payment to the city. The correspondence states "per our discussion, this provision was a statutory requirement at the time the redevelopment agreement was entered into and has since been removed by the legislature and is no longer required where TIF is used to encourage development. As you are aware, we are in the process of refunding the housing revenue bonds currently issued on this property. The lien does create an encumbrance to the new financing." This matter was discussed and reviewed by the city's bond counsel from Dorsey & Whitney, with the director of finance, the city attorney and city manager. MOTION BY /"J~,~qA2q4.//~ SECOND BY hRFA\planning~improvement Droiec~O-LaNal int mt~ r~iH~'finn Request for Action Page 2 7-28-03 The city's bond counsel prepared the attached correspondence regarding this request, which states: "In 1985 the New Hope HI:LA entered into a redevelopment agreement (the "Redevelopment Agreement") with Broadway LaNel, a Limited Partnership ("Broadway LaNel"), in connection with the development by Broadway LaNel of a 73-unit senior rental apartment building. The HRA established a tax increment financing district and the city issued tax increment bonds to write down the cost of requisition of the land and clearing of the site. In addition to providing such assistance, the HI:LA established an interest reduction program under the HRA Act and paid 90% of the excess tax increment remaining after payment of debt service on the tax increment bonds to Broadway LaNel in the years 1988 through 1999 to pay a portion of the interest on the housing revenue bonds issued by the city on behalf of Broadway LaNel to finance the development. The authority to provide for an interest reduction program was repealed by the Legislature shortly thereafter. "The statute in existence in 1985 authorizing an interest reduction program provided that the HRA must impose a formula under which the HI:LA potentially could be paid a portion of sales proceeds upon sale of the development. Such statutory formula was complicated and confusing and provided that the developer be allowed a reasonable rate of return on its investment in the property. "Because of this statutory requirement in the redevelopment agreement a formula was provided that provides the potential for a payment to the New Hope EDA (which has been assigned the HRA's interest in the redevelopment agreement) upon a sale, transfer or complete refinancing of the development. Such formula provided the EDA be paid the greater of (i) 40% of the first $125,000 of sale proceeds distributed to the parties or (ii) 40% of the amount over the target sales price as defined in the redevelopment agreement subject to certain adjustments. The target sales price is defined as $3,385,000 through December 31, 1986, and thereafter compounded annually on each January 1 at 5%. As of January 1, 2003, this produces a target sales price of approximately $7,750,000. The development is presently assessed for real estate tax purposes at $5,503,000. "Broadway LaNel is in the process of refinancing the development through the issuance of refunding bonds by the city and the obtaining of a conventional loan in the amount of up to $1,555,000 from Fannie Mae. Such refinancing triggers the obligation of Broadway LaNel to pay the EDA the amount required under the formula in the redevelopment agreement. "It is proposed that Broadway LaNel pay the EDA $50,000 to satisfy its repayment obligations under the redevelopment agreement. I believe that this payment is the amount required to be paid under the formula in the redevelopment agreement, and I would recommend that the EDA agree to this proposal and upon payment of such amount, terminate the redevelopment agreement." Bond counsel has prepared the enclosed resolution, which states, in part: "Approval of Deed Amendments and Termination of Redevelopment Aqreement. The EDA approves the execution and delivery by the EDA of the deed amendments, and the appropriate officers of the EDA are authorized and directed to execute the deed amendments in the form approved by the officer or officers executing the deed amendments and the attorney for the EDA. The EDA approves the termination of the redevelopment agreement and satisfaction of the lien upon payment to the EDA of $50,000 by the developer, and upon payment of such amount to the EDA. The appropriate officers of the EDA are authorized and requested by the developer, the appropriate officers of the EDA are authorized and directed to execute such agreements as may be necessary and appropriate in the opinion of the officer or officers executing any such agreement and in the opinion of the attorney for the EDA, to evidence the termination of the redevelopment agreement and satisfaction of the lien." The 1985 redevelopment agreement states, in part, that: Request for Action Page 3 7-28-03 2.031 Redevelopment Plan 85-1 and Redevelopment Proiect 85-1. After favorable recommendation by the HRA, and after a public hearing as required by law, the city approved the Plan 85-1 and Project 85-1 on November 12, 1985, which provided for the acquisition of the property, the removal of any structure thereon, and the construction of a 72-unit elderly housing complex. This construction, exclusive of land acquisition and preparation costs, is estimated to cost at least $2,910,816 and will be financed by the city by the issuance of housing bonds, or by the redeveloper, at its option. 2.032 Tax Increment Financinq Plan 85-1. Also on November 12, 1985, in order to finance public redevelopment costs to be incurred by the HRA and the city in connection with the Plan 85-1 and Project 85-1, the HRA approved a tax increment financing plan. 2.033 Interest Subsidy. In order to encourage and make the proposed construction of housing for the elderly and Iow and moderate income persons feasible, the HRA will undertake an interest reduction program under Minnesota Statutes 462.445, subd. 10, as described more fully in section 4.04. 2.035 Statement of Intent. It is the intent of the parties that approximately 72 units of adequate and safe housing, for elderly persons be provided in the city of New Hope, Minnesota, including not less than 20% of whom shall be Iow or moderate income persons, and to accomplish this objective, the parties are exerting the best efforts of both the private and governmental sectors of our society, and within the bounds of good judgment and common sense, it is the intent of the parties to make the best use feasible of legitimate private and governmental resource. Interpretation of this redevelopment agreement shall be made with these objectives in mind. 4.04 Interest Reduction Proqram. in connection with the project, the HRA agrees to undertake an interest reduction program under Minnesota Statutes, section 462.445, subdivision 10, to assist in financing of the housing facilities which are intended primarily for occupancy by elderly individuals, including not less than 20% of the units for persons of Iow and moderate income. To finance the redeveloper's construction and installation of the housing facilities, the city will issue and sell the housing bonds and not to exceed $3,500,000 of the proceeds thereof will be loaned to the redeveloper. At its option, the redeveloper may provide its own financing for the construction of the housing facilities. In determining to proceed with an interest reduction program, the HRA has considered (i) the availability and affordability of other govemmental programs, (ii) the availability and affordability of private mortgage financing, and (iii) the need for additional affordable mortgage credit to encourage the construction and enable the purchase of housing units within the jurisdiction of the HRA. 4.05 Limitations, Interest Reduction Proqram. In any calendar year where the HRA provides interest reduction assistance for the project, at least 20% of the total assisted housing units in the project shall be held available for rental to Iow or moderate income persons or families. In satisfaction of this requirement, the redeveloper covenants and agrees to furnish such proof of meeting this requirement as the HRA or city may reasonably require. 4.08 Amount of Lien. Upon transfer or sale of the housing facilities, the amount required to be paid to the HRA to satisfy its HRA lien shall equal the greater of the following amounts: 4.081 City Share of Appreciation. 4.0811 Division 40/60. The first $125,000 of the partnership's distributable sales proceeds (i.e., cash that would otherwise be distributed to the general partner and the limited partners) shall be distributed 40% to the city and 60% in the aggregate to the general partner and the limited partners. 4.0812 Payment. After present value of total actual sales receipts equals the target sales price, the partnership will pay (as soon as practicable) to the city, 40% of all subsequent deferred payments until the outstanding principal balance of the city's share of appreciation, plus interest computed in accordance with Request for Action Page 4 7-28-03 Section 4.0813, has been paid in full to the city. The partnership shall be credited against any amount due hereunder for any money paid to the city under section 4.0811, above. 4.0813 Interest. The unpaid balance of the city's share of appreciation shall accrue interest (compounded each January 1) at the weighted average bond rate beginning on the date of sale of the project. Payments made in accordance with section 4.0812 shall first be applied toward reduction of any unpaid interest and then towards reduction of principal. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. FUNDING The city's bond counsel has stated that this $50,000 payment to the EDA will be in addition to the payment to the city of its fee for issuing the revenue bonds. It is anticipated that the principal amount of the bonds will be $2,655,000, so the city will be paid a fee of approximately $13,275.

Recitals. The Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of New Hope, Minnesota (the "HRA") has approved a redevelopment plan, as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.002, subdivision 16, designated as Redevelopment Plan 85-1 ("Redevelopment Plan 85-1"), and a redevelopment project to be undertaken pursuant thereto, as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.002, subdivision 14, designated as Redevelopment Project 85-1 ("Redevelopment Project 85-1"). In connection with Redevelopment Plan 85-1 and Redevelopment Project 85-1, the HRA and the City of New Hope (the "City") entered into a Redevelopment Agreement dated December 9, 1985 (the "Redevelopment Agreement"), with Broadway LaNel, a Limited Partnership, a Minnesota limited partnership (the "Developer") whereby the HRA sold certain premises described therein (the "Land") to the Developer. The Developer has constructed a 73-unit apartment building on the Land (the "Project"). Pursuant to the Redevelopment Agreement, the HRA has executed and delivered to the Developer a Deed and Covenants Running with the Land, dated as of December 1, 1985, as amended by a First Amendment to Deed and Covenants Running With the Land, dated as of September 1, 1993 (as so amended, the "Deed"). To secure performance of the Developer's obligations under the Redevelopment Agreement, the HRA has imposed certain covenants, restrictions and limitations on the Land, all as more fully set forth in the Redevelopment Agreement and the Deed, including a lien on the Land to secure amounts payable to the HRA upon sale or transfer of the Land (the "Lien"). Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.094, subdivision 2, the City transferred control of Redevelopment Plan 85-1 and Redevelopment Project 85-1 from the HRA to the EDA. The Developer has proposed that the City issue its Variable Rate Demand Multifamily Housing Revenue Refunding Bonds (Broadway LaNel Project), Series 2003 (the "Refunding Bonds"), in a principal amount not in excess of $2,810,000 under a Trust Indenture between the City and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The proceeds of the Refunding Bonds will be loaned to the Developer and applied to refund the City's Multifamily Housing Development Refunding Revenue Bonds (Broadway LaNel Project), Series 1993 (the "Prior Bonds"), issued by the City to refund bonds issued by the City in 1985 to finance the acquisition and construction of the Project by the Developer. Fannie Mae, a corporation organized and existing under the Federal National Mortgage Association Charter Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1716 et seq. ("Fannie Mae"), has agreed, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to facilitate the issuance of the Bonds by providing credit enhancement and liquidity support for the Bonds pursuant to a credit facility. In addition, the Developer will obtain a mortgage loan in a principal amount of up to $1,155,000 (the "Taxable Loan") from Fannie Mae. In connection with the issuance of the Reflmding Bonds, the Deed will be amended to reflect the issuance of the Refunding Bonds. Under the Redevelopment Agreement, the issuance of the Refunding Bonds require the Developer to pay to the HRA to pay the amounts secured by the Lien. The Developer has requested that the EDA (i) execute any amendments to the Deed required to be executed by the EDA to reflect the issuance of the Refunding Bonds (the "Deed Amendments"), and (ii)terminate the Redevelopment Agreement and satisfy the Lien upon payment to the EDA of $50,000 by the Developer. 2.

The HRA Lien is subordinate to the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants, and the anticipated liens of the Developer Loan Documents, but this subordination shall not be construed as granting the Redeveloper the right to burden the Land with any lien superior to the HRA Lien other than those specified in this paragraph or section 4.094.
