Mr. Kirk McDonald, Director of Community Development, stated the developer has submitted the appropriate fees to the city to cover the cost of the tax increment financing (TIF) analysis of the proposed project. Staff recommends that the study be completed by Krass Monroe, the city's redevelopment financial consultant. The EDA expressed support for the TIF analysis. Mr. McDonald also updated the EDA on other matters relating to the site. He stated Frank's Nursery is interested in relocating to the vacant Lyndale Garden site, and staff has provided a letter authorizing Frank's to utilize the same outdoor storage areas that were previously approved for Lyndale without securing additional planning approvals by the city.

FOR SALE OF 7500-28 42ND AVENUE NORTH PROPERTY (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 665) ACTION REQUESTED This is a public hearing for EDA consideration of the attached resolution approving purchase agreements for the sale of City-owned property located at 7500-7528 42n~ Avenue North. The proposed purchase price and joint development is as follows: 1. Culver's Restaurant $380,000 2. Office Condominiums (8 units) $130,000 Total Purchase Price $510,000 On June 23, 2003, the EDA reviewed the joint development proposal, was supportive of the developer's offer of a combined $510,000 for the site, or $4.62 sq. ft. and directed staff to prepare a purchase agreement for the property. The two purchase agreements are attached. In addition to the purchase price, the developers have agreed to contribute $47,100 for regional storm water improvements based on the estimate prepared by the City Engineer (memorandum attached). The storm water fee is separate from the purchase price and will be included in the development agreement. Also, the city's not paying any realtor fee in conjunction with the sale of the property. On June 23, the Council approved Ordinance 03-13, An Ordinance Establishing A Park Dedication Requirement and/or Cash Payment in Lieu of Land Dedication. At the time the Ordinance was adopted, staff recommended and the Council agreed that the newly created fee would not be applicable to developments currently in process, including this project and Woodbridge Senior Cooperative, Plymouth Heights Pet Hospital and St. Joseph Catholic Church. The following three items are being presented for EDA consideration at tonight's meeting: 1. Purchase Agreements: Purchase agreements have been submitted and attached from both Culver's Restaurant and Frey Development (Office Condominiums). The City Attorney will prepare a development agreement for the site for consideration at a later date. Finally, the city will close on the property after planning and zoning approvals (expected during the winter). This is the same procedure I:\RFA\PLANNING\Electronic Industdes\Q - PH.doc Request for Action Page 2 11-24-03 that was followed for the sale of 9200 49~ Avenue North to the Plymouth Heights Pet Hospital. Restrictive Covenant: The Covenant, prepared by the City Attorney and approved by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), restricts use of the property and imposes maintenance and reporting requirements. Any buyer would be required to adhere to the Restrictive Covenant. The MPCA continues to exercise control over this property. Therefore, the MPCA is requiring the City to record a Declaration of Covenants against this property prior to its sale for redevelopment purposes. Environmental Monitoring Proposal: Diversified Environmental, the city's environmental consultant has submitted a proposal to oversee the final environmental responsibilities prior to project completion. Many activities are required by the MPCA and are outlined within the Restrictive Covenant to ensure proper redevelopment of the site. Diversified Environmental has been assisting the city with this site since the contamination was originally discovered in 1984. POLICY/PAST PRACTICE City goal #2 is to pursue the maintenance and redevelopment of commercial and residential properties within the City. The EDA has been addressing the commercial portion of this goal through the city's many development activities, including selling city-owned property for redevelopment. BACKGROUND On November 10, 2003, the EDA approved a resolution scheduling a public hearing to consider the potential sale of City-owned property located at 7500-7528 42n'~ Avenue North As you know, the city has been working for many years to initiate the environmental cleanup process and subsequent commercial redevelopment of this site. On June 23, 2003, the EDA reviewed a revised joint development proposal featuring two uses: a Culvers restaurant on the western portion of the site and three (3) office condominium buildings (eight (8) separate ownership units) on the eastern and northern portion of the site. The EDA was supportive of the developer's offer of a combined $510,000 for the site, or $4.62 sq. ft. and directed staff to prepare a purchase agreement for the property. Since June 23, the following activities have occurred: Purchase Agreements: The City Attorney prepared purchase agreement for both JCS Development Inc. (Culver's Restaurant) and Frey Development inc. (Office Condominiums). Attached, please find copies of the signed agreements. The documents will not be fully executed until following the public hearing on November 24, 2003. 2. Developer Coordination: Staff has continued to coordinate with the developers regarding the proposal. The Office Condominium component of the proposal had some difficulty with investors, but is now ready to proceed. Also, staff and the City Attorney met with both proponents a number of times to discuss the environmental restrictive covenant, purchase agreements and the general project.. 3. Platting & Survey: In order to sell each developer a portion of the property staff has coordinated a plat and survey of the property. A preliminary and final plat will be approved as part of the required planning process. Environmental Restrictive Covenant: The City Attorney prepared the final version of the Restrictive Covenant that will be recorded against the property. Due to the property's polluted state, the MPCA exercises control over the property. Therefore, the MPCA is requiring the city to record a Declaration of Covenants against this property prior to its sale for redevelopment purposes. The covenant restricts use of the property and imposes maintenance and reporting requirements. Any buyer would be required to adhere to the Covenant. Pursuant to the guidelines provided by the MPCA, the City Attorney and the city's Environmental Consultant prepared an initial draft of the proposed Declaration of Covenants. This draft was submitted to the MPCA for review and comment. The MPCA returned a Request for Action Page 3 11-24-03 "black-lined" version of the initial draft indicating the changes they would like made to the proposed Declaration of Covenants. The changes requested by the MPCA to the initial draft were relatively few and generally non-substantive. The City Attorney reviewed the changes required by the MPCA and prepared the proposed final Declaration of Covenants for EDA consideration at tonight's meeting. Environmental Activities: Diversified Environmental, the city's environmental consultant has been overseeing site cleanup activities and performing various site responsibilities as needed. Diversified Environmental has submitted a proposal for EDA consideration at tonight's meeting to oversee the final environmental responsibilities prior to project completion. Many activities are required by the MPCA and are outlined within the Restrictive Covenant to ensure proper redevelopment of the site. Diversified Environmental will prepare the State VIC (Voluntary Investigation Cleanup) application for "No Association" letters for the developers, as well as the related and required contingency plan for testing and handling of any contaminants disturbed during redevelopment construction activities. Diversified Environmental has been assisting the city with this site since the contamination was originally discovered in 1984. Site Cleanup Activities: There has been many cleanup activities this past summer and fall, and the project has passed a significant milestone. Three rounds of permanganate injection were completed into the upper aquifer, and follow-up testing has shown that contaminant levels remain consistently Iow enough that MPCA has determined that the last two planned rounds of injection are not warranted. This decision has had the net effect of expediting completion of this portion of the work, as well as conserving grant funds. The conservation of DTED funds for this work has already been incorporated into the remaining DTED budget through our correspondence with DTED staff. A bench-scale test of geologic materials from the lower aquifer, not originally envisioned in our original budget, was recently proposed to be funded by DTED grant funds, approved by DTED staff, and was more than paid for through use of saved costs from the upper aquifer injection program. The testing involved evaluation of the level of permanganate uptake by inorganic soil materials in the aquifer. Testing has been completed, and its results will lead to a revision of protocols for injection into the lower aquifer, that also is expected to result in considerable cost savings. Fundamentally, the change in protocol will be to inject more permanganate into fewer injection points, thus saving considerable drilling equipment costs. The revised protocol is currently being drafted, and we anticipate submittal to MPCA for review and approval shortly. Injections into the lower aquifer are planned to begin in November and to be completed by the end of 2003. The new remediation building for cleanup of the lower aquifer has been constructed on the Gill Brother's Funeral Home site and is operational. Brick siding to match the funeral home is expected to be completed by the end of the year. The existing remediation shed and equipment on the former El site is expected to be demolished and removed by the end of the year. The City has continued to facilitate pay requests and project updates to both the Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) (formally Department of Trade and Economic Development (DTED)) and Hennepin County. Staff anticipates that all DEED-funded cleanup activities will be completed by the end of the grant term of June, 2004. Additional Background On August 25, 2003, the Council approved a motion ratifying staff's action of sending notice to the Sunshine Factory restaurant regarding termination of the Non-Exclusive License Agreement for the restaurant's use of city property located at 7528 42"d Ave. N. for temporary parking. The agreement officially expired on June 9, 2003. Staff indicated to the Sunshine Factory that the parking lot can remain in use until the proposed development occurs. Also, staff informed the restaurant that a shared parking arrangement would be proposed to the developers. Request for Action Page 4 11-24-03 On May 27, 2003, the Council scheduled a public hearing to initiate the process for vacating a public alley easement at this site. The easement is no longer necessary and vacation of the easement will aid in redevelopment of the parcels. On June 23 a public hearing was held to vacate the easement. On January 13 2003, the Council approved a cost-sharing agreement with the Responsible Party (RP), Electronic'Industries to facilitate the RP cleanup match funding and outline cleanup responsibilities. Electronic Industries is in the process of.obtaining a building permit for the new remediation system and scheduling remediation activities. On April 8, 2002, the City Council approved resolutions authorizing staff to apply for cleanup funding from DTED and Hennepin County for the City-owned site at 7516 42nd Avenue North, the former Electronic Industries site. On July 23, the Hennepin County Board approved funding for the project in the amount of $31,125. In June, DTED approved $217,860 for the project. On July 22, the Council passed a resolution formally authorizing the DTED grant agreement. On August 12, the Council passed a resolution formally authorizing the Hennepin County grant agreement. As mentioned previously, the City initiated the grant process in order to expedite the cleanup of the site and market the property for commercial redevelopment. In the spring of 2000, the City applied for and received a Contamination Investigation and Remedial Action Plan (RAP) Development Grant from DTED to determine the extent of contamination, develop a RAP and prepare for the submission of the follow-up DTED cleanup grant. The RAP was completed during the fall of 2001. The City was funded by DTED in the amount of $217,860, Hennepin County in the amount of $31,125 and Electronic Industries is responsible for $82,995 (25% match). The total cleanup costs are estimated at $331,980. At the time of grant submission, the City had received a proposal for the office condominiums. Using this development proposal, DTED rated New Hope's application as #1 in the State due to the economic development and job creation potential. Culvers/RSDS came later in the process and staff suggested that they provide a joint development proposal with the office condominium developer which they have done. At the time the contamination was discovered in 1984, the MPCA identified Electronic Industries as the responsible party. With this designation, Electronic Industries became legally responsible for the investigation and cleanup of the contaminants. By the early 1990s, the MPCA and Electronic Industries developed a Remedial Action Plan (RAP) that identified the stages and timeline for the site cleanup. This RAP called for the inadequate as it would take many more years to complete in its present state. On February 11, 2002, the Council authorized staff to obtain a property appraisal update for 7516 42nd Avenue North, the former Electronic Industries site for the cleanup grant proposals. Also, the Council authorized staff to obtain an appraisal update of all three accumulated sites, post-cleanup (7500, 7516 and 7528) to be used for discussions with developers regarding the potential sale and redevelopment of the property. The accumulated site appraisal was completed on April 22, 2002 and lists the remediated value at $730,000. Also on February 11, in order to continue activities toward the cleanup and redevelopment of this site, the Council approved an updated Request for Proposals (RFP) for the site and authorized staff to distribute the RFP. The Council approved a similar effort in February 2000. At that time, staff distributed the proposal information to thirty-eight (38) potential developers. The second time, a specific effort was made to target Brownfield developers as RFP recipients. Staff sent the updated RFP to one hundred and eighty-five (185) developers, many with significant Brownfield redevelopment experience. In addition, staff sent the RFP to the original list developed in 2000, for a total of two hundred and twenty-three (223) recipients. The attached development proposal was received as a result of the RFP effort approved in the spring of 2002. Staff coordinated with the Hennepin County Assessor's and Property Tax Offices to obtain a preliminary estimate of taxes for this proposal. The Hennepin County Assessor's Office provided an estimated overall site value with the improvements and environmental remediation at $1.8 million. Using 2003, tax rates, the Request for Action Page 5 11-24-03 Property Tax Office estimated that overall property taxes would be $71,000 with the City's share being roughly $12,000 per year. The property is zoned CB, Community Business. The site is properly zoned for both components of this proposed development. Due to the joint development, shared parking and access and individual ownership of the office' uses, the City Planner has indicated that a PUD would be appropriate in this case. On June 23, 2003, the EDA reviewed a revised joint development proposal featuring two uses: a Culvers restaurant on the western portion of the site and three (3) office condominium buildings (eight (8) separate ownership units) on the eastern and northern portion of the site. The EDA was supportive of the developer's offering of a combined $510,000 for the site, or $4.62 sq. ft. and directed staff to prepare a purchase agreement for the property. The total land area is 109,899.1 sq. ft. or 2.52 acres. Development restrictions as a result of the attached declaration of covenants limit the future use of the site and overall value. Staff, including the Director of Finance recommended the proposed purchase price taking into account the location, contamination issues and development restrictions. According to the Director of Finance, the City considered paying $6 per square foot for the Robbinsdale School District 281 property located at the southeast corner of 4 "~ ' 2 and W~nnetka Ave. N. Although the subject location is good, it is not as highly desirable as the school district site and has restrictions, therefore staff thought that $4.62 sq. ft. was reasonable. An appraisal completed on 4-22-02, lists the "as remediated" market value at $730,000. The Hennepin County Assessor's Office estimated land value at $600,000. The City has been working for many years to initiate the environmental cleanup process and subsequent commercial redevelopment of this site. In conjunction with cleanup funding grant applications submitted during the spring of 2002, the Council approved a Request for Proposal (RFP) process for the site. As a result of the RFP, the City received a proposal for the office condominium component of the current proposal. Using the office condominium proposal in the cleanup grant applications, the Department of Trade and Economic Development (DTED) rated New Hope's application #1 in the State of Minnesota due to the economic development and job creation potential. DTED subsequently approved a fully funded grant in partnership with a Hennepin County approved grant. Culver's restaurant/RSDS came later in the process and staff suggested they provide a joint development proposal with the office condominium developer which they have done. Staff has been in contact with DTED regarding the revised proposal. DTED indicated that they did not have any issue with the addition of a Culver's restaurant at the site and it will not affect the cleanup grant. Also, the proposed development will not conflict with the attached MPCA imposed Declaration of Environmental Restrictive Covenants. The developers will be required to submit a storm water dedication fee for the property. Due to the groundwater contamination, the MPCA will not allow a storm water pond to be constructed at the site, therefore the City Engineer prepared an estimated cash fee that would be required for regional water quality improvements. The City Engineer is studying regional improvements, not only for the subject site, but the many other redevelopment plans in the City Center area. The City Engineer recommended that the. proposed development contribute $47,100 for the regional improvements (please see attached memorandum). The developers have agreed to pay the fee. The City Attorney stated that the fee would be outlined in the upcoming development agreement. FUNDING The City purchased the three properties including the contaminated property entirely with TIF funds. Acquisition and demolition costs for all three properties equaled $1,091,709. The DTED Contamination Cleanup Grant can pay up to 75% of the cost of cleaning up the contamination. Electronic Industries has aqreed to provide the 25% match. The total estimated cost to implement the RAP is $324,218. Clay investigatic~n costs incurred by Electronic Industries have been included in the overall project cost at the request of Electronic Industries in the amount of $7,762, increasing the total cost to $331,980. Electronic Industries is responsible for providing $82,995 in matching funds. DTED has approved $217,860 in cleanup funding. Additional funding in the amount of $31,125 has been approved by Hennepin County. The Request for Action Page 6 11-24-03 City is not responsible for contributing funds for site cleanup. Costs incurred by the City's environmental consultant will be paid with TIF.

"TCE" means trichloroethylene. Fe Ao Do Ge RECITALS Current Ownership. The Economic Development Authority of the City of Neg' Hope is the current fee owner of the entire Property. Partial Prior Ownership. El was the fee owner of Parcel 7 of the Property from before 1984 until Parcel 7 was condenmed by the City of New Hope in 1993. The Final Certificate of the condemnation was filed in the Office of the Hennepin County Recorder on April 26, 1993 as document number 6117445. .Contamination in General. A portion of the Property was the site ora release of TCE. Source of Contamination. The Tank was the source of the release of TCE. Water Table Contamination. Once the Tank lost its containment ability, the TCE leaked from the Tank and initially migrated vertically downward through sandy soils until it reached a clay layer approximately 15 feet below grade where concentrated TCE has collected in discrete areas. This clay layer, approximately 30 feet thick, also forms a barrier for the downward movement of water from the surface, and thereby creates a "perched" water table under the Property. The TCE, being in contact with the water table, has contaminated the water table aquifer in a localized area. 1984 Stipula~__ion. In 1984 El entered into a Stipulation Agreement with the MPCA, which r~quired El to properly investigate and remediate the identified release. EI owned Parcel 7 at the time that it entered into the 1984 Stipulation Agreement. Investi ation and Clean U Generall . The contamination of the water table has been the historical focus of EI's investigation and cleanup efforts. These efforts to date have consisted of several rounds of investigation and the Page 4 of 4 He Le installation of monitoring w~ll~, a soil vapor extraction system, an air sparge system, and a groundwater extraction and treatment system, including the following: The groundwater extraction system ,,vas installed in 1987. The soil vapor extraction system was installed in 1992. The air sparge system was installed in 1994. These efforts produced the following information: Observed TCE levels have ranged from 5 ppm to 290.000 ppm. Monitoring wells downgradient show ranges of near zero to 41 ppm. An estimated total of 7,000 pounds of TCE has been removed to date through the combination of these remediation systems. Lower Aquifer Investigation. In 1998, the MPCA required that the aquifer beneath the clay layer be investigated. Subsurface drilling and sampling of this aquifer was performed in 1998. Lower aquifer monitoring wells were also installed in 1998. Initial results fi.om this sampling showed TCE concentrations up to 124,000 ug/l. This data suggested that the TCE accumulating on the top of the clay layer had migrated through the clay layer into the lower aquifer. Amounts of Contaminates Present. TCE, tetrachloroethylene (PCE), dichloroethylene (DCE), trans-DCE, cis-DCE, vinyl chloride, toluene, and methylene chloride are all historically documented to be present on the Property, in the amounts shown on the Exhibit 3 tables. Location of Contaminates Present', Residual contamination, primarily TCE exist in subsurface soil as well as groundwater in both the "perched" water table aquifer and the lower aquifer. .Reports. Many investigative reports have been completed since 1983, the results of which are summarized in the Resource Conservation and Recover3, Act Facility Investigation and Corrective Measures Study (February 2001 and revised January, 2002), Results from May 2001 Push Probe 'Investigation of the Clay (June 2001 ), Remediation /llternatives Report (August 2001), and the Corrective Measures Implementation Work Plan (October, 2001) prepared by Frontline Environmental, LLC, an environmental consulting firm currently located at 17450 Juneberry Court, I.akeville, Minnesota, 55044.

"TCE" means tnchloroethylene. Be Ce RECITALS Current Ownership. The Economic Development Authority of the City of Nea' Hope is the current fee owner of the entire Property. Partial Prior Ownership. El was the fee owner of Parcel 7 of the Property fi.om before 1984 until Parcel 7 was condemned by the City of New Hope in 1993. The Final Certificate of the condemnation was filed in the Office of the Hennepin County Recorder on April 26, 1993 as document number 6117445. Contamination in General. A portion of the Property was the site .fa release of TCE. Source of Contamination. The Tank was the source of the release of TCE. Water Table Contamination. Once the Tank lost its containment ability, the TCE leaked bom the Tank and initially migrated vertically downward through sandy soils until it reached a clay layer approximately 15 feet below grade where concentrated TCE has collected in discrete areas. This clay layer, approximately 30 feet thick, also forms a barrier for the downward movement of water from the surface, and thereby creates a "perched" water table under the Property. The TCE, being in contact with the water table, has contaminated the water table aquifer in a localized area. .1984 Stipulation, In 1984 EI entered into a Stipulation Agreement with the MPCA, which required EI to properly investigate and remediate the identified release. El owned Parcel 7 at the time that it entered into the 1984 Stipulation Agreement. .Investieation and Clean Up Generally. The contamination of the water table has been the historical focus of EI's investigation and cleanup efforts. These efforts to date have consisted of several rounds of investigation and the Page 4 of 4 Ho Lo installation of monitorin~wc~ls~ a soil vapor extraction system, an air sparge system, and a groundwater extraction and treatment system, including the following: The groundwater extraction system was installed in 198.-. The soil vapor extraction system was installed in 1992. The air sparge system was installed in 1994. These efforts produced the following information: 4. Observed TCE levels have ranged from 5 ppm to 290,000 ppm. 5. Monitoring wells downgradient show ranges of near zero to 41 ppm. 6. An estimated total of 7,000 pounds of TCE has been removed to date through the combination of these remediation systems. .,Lower Aquifer lnvestieation, In 1998, the MPCA required that the aquifer beneath the clay layer be investigated. Subsurface drilling and sampling of this aquifer was performed in 1998. Lower aquifer monitoring wells were also installed in 1998. Initial results from this sampling showed TCE concentrations up to 124,000 ug/l. This data suggested that the TCE accumulating on the top of the clay layer had migrated through the clay layer into the lower aquifer. Amounts of Contaminates Present. TCE, tetrachloroethylene (PCE), dichloroethylene (DCE), trans-DCE, cis-DCE, vinyl chloride, toluene, and methylene chloride are al/historically documented to be present on the Property, in the amounts shown on the Exhibit 3 tables. Location of Contaminates Present. Residual contamination, primarily TCE exist in subsurface soil as well as groundwater in both the "perched" water table aquifer and the lower aquifer. .Reports_. Many investigative reports have.been completed since 1983, the results of which are summarized in the Resource Conservation and Recovery ~4ct Facilin, Investigation and Corrective Measures Study (February 2001 and re~,ised January, 2002), Results from May 2001 Push Probe Investigation of the Clay (June 2001 ), Remediation ~4lternatives Report (August 2001), and the CorreCtive Measures Implementation Work Plan (October, 2001) prepared by Frontline Environmental, LLC, an environmental consulting firm currently located at 17450 Juneberry Court, Lakeville, Minnesota, 55044. The location of near surface contaminants at the Property is shown in Figure I of the Corrective Measures Implementation Work Plan. City's Aereement with the MPC.4. The Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope has agreed with the MPCA to place the following restrictive Covenants on the Property. Page 5 of 5 COVENANTS NOW. THEREFORE, the Economic Development Authority of' the City of' Nex~ Hope makes the following Covenants as to the limitations, restrictions and uses to which the Property may be put.

The Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope hereby imposes the following Covenants on the Property: The Property mav not be used for residential purposes of anv kind or for any use that may result in significant human contact witl~ the soil or ground water at the Property. "Residential purposes" shall be broadly defined, but at the least shall include those residential uses defined in th~ City of New Hope Zoning Code. be All structures erected shall be constructed above grade {e.g., no basements, subgrade parking garages, etc.). Prior to the commencement of any subgrade construction activities or other disturbances that may require dewatering (e.g. construction dewatering, etc.), a ground water contamination monitoring plan must be prepared and submitted to and approved by the MPCA and the City of New Hope. The ground water contamination monitoring plan must describe: do i. The methods to be used and actions to taken to monitor the disturbance and/or removal of contaminated ground water. ii. Plans for proper containment and disposal of any contaminated ground water removed as part of the construction activities. Any permanent structures erected at the Property that will be occupied by workers of any kind must have a subsurface vapor collection system designed and installed beneath the structure to collect potential organic vapors and prevent such vapors from accumulating in the structure. The vapor collection systems must be "active" vapor collection systems (i.e. electrical fans will continuously draw air from the collection system and discharge the air through roof vents). A vapor collection system implementation work plan shall be reviewed and approved by the MPCA prior to installation of the system. The work plan shall include a detailed system design, and a Monitoring and Maintenance plan for the system. Page 6 of 6 o Permanent facilities-"l-e.g, buildings, parking surfaces, etc.} shall be designed to minimize infiltration of precipitation runoff I rainwater, snow melt) by routing all such precipitation runoff to storm sewers that cam' thc runoff off-site. This shall be done to minimize recharge of subsurface ground water so as to prevent mobilization of existing subsurface contaminants. New monitoring wells installed in areas of vehicle or pedesman traffic shall be constructed as flush-mount monitonng wells. Use Restrictions for the Restricted Area. in addition to the Covenants restricting the use of the entire Property. the Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope hereby imposes the following Covenant on the RestriCted Area: Prior to the commencement of any subgrade construction activities or other disturbances to subsurface soil in the Restricted Area Ce.g. utility installation, excavation, grading cuts, soil corrections, borings, drilling, etc.), a soil contamination monitoring plan must be prepared and submitted to and approved by MPCA and the City of New Hope. The soil contamination monitoring plan must describe: ii. IlK The methods to be used and actions to taken to monitor thc disturbance and/or removal of contaminated soil. Plans for proper containment and disposal of any contaminated soil removed as part of the construction activities. Schedule for submitting a final report to the MPCA describing volume of soil removed, how it was disposed, and associated analytical data. .Commissioner Approval. Any action prohibited by the Covenants shall not occur without the prior approval of thc Commissioner. Requests for the Commissioner's approval must be made in writing to the Commissioner. be The Commissioner shall have 60 days after the receipt of a request to mail a response thereto. de The Commissioner's response shall be in writing and shall approve or disapprove the request or require additional information be provided.

The Commissioner's approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Covenants Limited. The Covenants do not apply to the following activities so long as such activities occur outside of the Restricted Area and are not reasonabix' likely to result in disturbances of or intrusions into the soil, ~ound waters and surface waters of the Restricted Area: a. Maintenance or repair of existing buildings or structures; bm Maintenance or repair of existing underground sewer, water, electrical or telephone services; or c. Installation of fencing or signage. Maintenance Requirements, Generally, steps taken to minimize the infiltration of water runoff and monitor treatment of on-site contaminants must be maintained. Specifically, the following is required: bo do Once placed, parking construction materials (e.g. bituminous, concrete, etc.) must be maintained to minimize openings in the surface that would allow precipitation to infiltrate into subsurface soils. On-site snow storage shall be permitted only on surfaces that convey runoff to storm sewers that discharge to an off-site location. Upon reasonable notice to the then-em'rent Owner and at reasonable times, from time to time permission to enter upon the Property shall be granted to the MPCA, the City of New Hope, EI, and/or their subcontractors, employees or agents for the purposes of sampling, inspection, construction, or decommissioning of MPCA required monitoring or treatment facilities. Subsurface soil ventilation systems must be monitored and maintained in working order at all times, in accordance with an MPCA approved Monitoring and Maintenance Plan. Should programmatic vapor testing show that vapors are not being collected by the soil vapor collection system, and that the potential for organic vapors to collect in on-site buildings is not a human health concern, the Owner may request from MPCA that the active vapor collection system use be discontinued.

Property Law Special~t Cen~ed By The MUmesota State , Bar A.~oci~fion 'Admitted m io~ Please forgive me for including what may seem like excessive information m this letter. However, when I started work on this matter again, I found it helpful to create a time line of past events. I also thought it would be helpful to provide that time line to you for the sake of good communication. My file indicates that after the City received the initial drafts of proposed Purchase Agreements from you the following occurred: The first set of revisions to the Purchase Agreements is sent to you via e-mail. In the rush to get the f~t set of revisions to you, some errors were made, so a corrected first set of revisions to the Purchase Agreements is sent to you via e-mai/. "Pre-Application" meeting is held at City Hall with you and your clients. At this meeting major changes to the Purchase Agreements are discussed. The second set of revisions to the Purchase Agreements is sent to you via e-mail. A meeting is held at City Hall with the surveyor, City staff', you and your clients and us to discuss the platting of the property. It is my recollection that the Purchase Agreements were only briefly discussed at this time because Bernie wasn't certain he and his partner would be going forward with the purchase, but also because only small changes were needed at this point. September 2~ 2003~ 8:30 A meeting is held at City Hall with City staff, the partners of Frey Development and City Attorney, Steven Sondrall. The purpose of this meeting is to address Frey Development's concerns about the contamination present on the property. November 3, 2003 Page 2 September 2.2003. at approximately 1 p.m.: .... I e-mailed what are expected to be the/'real Purchase Agreements to you and Ken Doresk3'. The only exception being that the lirmted assignment provision to be included in the JCS Development. Inc. Purchase Agreement needed to be completed with the name of the entity .rCS wishes to assign the Purchase Agreement to. I have added date and time fields to the footer of the attached proposed final Purchase Agreements to help us all verify that we are looking at the most recent versions. I have also now completed the .rCS Purchase Agreement's assignmer;t provision. In addition to the Purchase Agreements, I have also attached the proposed fmal Declaration of Covenants that is to be attached to each Purchase Agreement as Exhibit C. This is, of course, the version of the Declaration of Covenants approved by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. There is one exception, however. The MPCA insisted that Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2 of the Declaration of Covenants be replaced with "to scale" exhibits. There is no legal reason for this to be done, but the MPCA wanted it and Ken has "to scale" documents so we agreed. We will be able to attached "to scale" documents to the original prior to recording. There is, however, no reason why we cannot use the attached Declaration of Covenants for the Purchase Agreements and I suggest we do so as this change is unimportant and not worth spending more time on than has akeady been spent. The Declaration of Covenants has been in its final approved form since August 28, 2003, but the City has not preViously submitted it to the City CouneiUEDA. The Declaration of Covenants were not previously submitted it to the City CounciUEDA because City staff wanted to bring it simultaneously with the Purchase Agreements. Again, I have added date and time fields to the footer of this document to help us all verify that we are looking at the most recent version. The time line going forward is, I believe as follows: October 31, 2003: I am to submit to the City a resolution to be passed by the EDA setting the public hearing for the property. November 4. 2003: You indicated to me that you thought you would be able to have the Purchase Agreements signed by your clients and delivered to the City by this date. ~November 10, 2003, 7:00 p.m. at City flail: The City Council/EDA meets. The EDA is expected to pass the resolution fLxing a November 24, 2003, public hearing on the sale of this property. .November 24~ 2003~ 7:00 p.m. at City Hall: The City CounciUEDA meets. The EDA will hold a public hearing on the sale of this property. If no objections are raised thereto the EDA will pass a resolution approving the sale. The Declaration of Covenants are also expected be approved at this meeting. _November 25~ 2003: If not signed the night before, the Declaration of Covenants and Purchase Agreements will be signed by the City. office will then record the Declaration of Covenants against the property.

This property will contribute a cash fee toward regional improvements because a water quality pond cannot be constructed on site for environmental reasons. This recommendation is consistent with the Surface Water Management Plan and with past conversations with prospective property developers. The total fee will represent the cost that would have been realized to construct a pond and the value of the land occupied by the pond. Site considerations/Pond Characteristics The site area is slightly less than 110,000 SF. A water quality pond for this site would include 16,000 cubic feet of wet volume. If the pond were 5 feet deep on average and proper sideslopes and benches were included around the pond, 4,900 SF (70' x 70') would be required for the pond.

President Enck introduced for discussion Item 4, Joint Development Proposal Concept Cousideration and Authorization to Prepare a Purchase Agreement for City-Owned Property at 7500-7528 42"" Avenue North (Improvement Project No. 665). Mr. Kirk McDomld, Director of Community Development, stated staff is requesting concept consideration and authorization to prepare a purchase agreement with the deve!?pers for a joint development proposal for the city-owned site at 7500-7528 42' Avenue North. The proposal is for two uses: a Culvers restaLh-'ant on the western portion of the site and three office condomi-ium buildings (eight separate ownership units) on the eastern portion of the site. Mr. McDonald updated the FDA on the proposal. The developers are offering a combined price of $$I0,000 for the site, or $4.62 per square foot. The developer's representative, RSDS, inifialJy proposed a brokerage fee of $40,000 to be paid by the city. At the EDA's request, the brokerage fee bas been eliminated from the proposal. He also reported that storm water ponding issues have been discussed with the developer. He ~ustrated the revised site plan. Cor-,-i~io~. Sorr~*r initiated discussion regarding the d/fference between the appraised price and the proposed purchase price. Mr. Ken Doresky, Commumly Development Spec/al/st, co~ented that the appraisal d/d not take into consideration the property's limitations as mandated by the MPCA. President Enck objected to the city bearing the costs for momtormg and mitigation plans relawxi to the contaminated soft cleanup. He noted Elect-omc I. ndusu-/es should be obligated ~o pay as they caused the contamination Mr. Dan Do,hue, C/~y Manager, explained that staffwould clarify tim roue. Mr. $ohn Sefl~ert, SCS Developmen~ was reco?!~-d. He noted it would I/kely take four months to close on the property and three months to complete conslruclion. Mr. McDomfld re. commended that a shared parldng arrangement be explored at the s/re between SCS Development and the Slm.sh/ne Factory Restaurant. The FDA expressed support for the joint development proposal, and directed staff to pursue a purchase agreement. June 23, 2003 EDA REQUEST FOR ACTION Originating Department Approved for Agenda Agenda Section Community Development 11-24-03 EDA By: Kirk McDonald, Director of CD ? ~ Item No. & Ken Doresk¥, CD Specialist By: RESOLUTION APPROVING DECLARATION OF COVENANTS FOR 7500 - 7528 42ND AVENUE NORTH (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 665) ACTION REQUESTED Staff is requesting EDA consideration of the attached resolution approving Declaration of Environmental Restrictive Covenants for the City-owned property located at 7500-7528 42°'~ Avenue North prepared by the City Attorney. Due to the site contamination, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) exercises control over the property and therefore are requiring the City to record this covenant against the property prior to its sale for redevelopment purposes. POLICY/PAST PRACTICF City goal #2 is to pursue the maintenance and redevelopment of commercial and residential properties withir the City. The EDA has been addressing the commercial portion of this goal through the City's man~ development activities, including preparing documents necessary to facilitate the redevelopment of City-owned property. BACKGROUND As you know, the City has been working for many years to initiate the environmental cleanup process and subsequent commercial redevelopment of this site. One more step in the redevelopment process is the approval of and recording of restrictive covenants for the property. Due to the site contamination, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) exercises control over the property and therefore they are requiring the City to record this covenant against the property prior to its sale for redevelopment purposes. The City Attorney prepared the attached covenant and provided the following correspondence (attached): "Please find enclosed the proposed final version of the Declaration of Covenants for the above-referenced real estate. As you know, Electronic Industries, Inc polluted this site. Subsequent to that pollution, the City purchased this property and is currently in the process of redeveloping it. However, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (hereinafter "MPCA") currently continues to exercise control over this property. Therefore, the MPCA is requiring the City to record a Declaration of Covenants against this property prior to its sale for ~oses. I:\RFA\PLANNING\Electronic Industdes\Q - Restrictive Covenants.doc Request for Action Page 2 11-24-03 Pursuant to the guidelines provided by the MPCA, the City's Environmental Consultant, Doug Bergstrom, and myself prepared an initial draft of the proposed Declaration of Covenants. This draft was submitted to the MPCA for review and comment. The MPCA returned a "black-lined" version of the initial draft to us indicating the changes they would like made to the proposed Declaration of Covenants. The changes requested by the MPCA to the initial draft were relatively few and generally non-substantive. I reviewed the changes required by the MPCA and prepared the enclosed proposed final Declaration of Covenants. The enclosed proposed final Declaration of Covenants incorporates all of the changes required by the MPCA. As a further precaution, the enclosed proposed final Declaration of Covenants were also submitted to and approved by the MPCA. Therefore, the proposed final Declaration of Covenants may be submitted to the City Council and/or the President and Commissioners of the City's Economic Development Authority for consideration and approval." The covenant restricts the use and imposes maintenance and reporting requirements. Any buyer will be required to adhere to the following guidelines (please see the attached document for additional detail): 1. Use Restrictions for the Entire Property. The Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope hereby imposes the following Covenants on the Property: a) The Property may not be used for residential purposes of any kind or for any use that may result in significant human contact with the soil or ground water at the Property. "Residential purposes" shall be broadly defined, but at the least shall include those residential uses defined in the City of New Hope Zoning Code. b) All structures erected shall be constructed above grade (e.g., no basements, subgrade parking garages, etc.). c) Prior to the commencement of any subgrade construction activities or other disturbances that may require dewatering (e.g. construction dewatering, etc.), a ground water contamination monitoring plan must be prepared and submitted to and approved by the MPCA and the City of New Hope. The ground water contamination monitoring plan must describe: i. The methods to be used and actions to taken to monitor the disturbance and/or removal of contaminated ground water. ii. Plans for proper containment and disposal of any contaminated ground water removed as part of the construction activities. d) e) f) Any permanent structures erected at the Property that will be occupied by workers of any kind must have a subsurface vapor collection system designed and installed beneath the structure to collect potential organic vapors and prevent such vapors from accumulating in the structure. The vapor collection systems must be "active" vapor collection systems (i.e. electrical fans will continuously draw air from the collection system and discharge the air through roof vents). A vapor collection system implementation work plan shall be reviewed and approved by the MPCA prior to installation of the system. The work plan shall include a detailed system design, and a Monitoring and Maintenance plan for the system. Permanent facilities (e.g. buildings, parking surfaces, etc.) shall be designed to minimize infiltration of precipitation runoff (rainwater, snow melt) by routing all such precipitation runoff to storm sewers that carry the runoff off-site. This shall be done to minimize recharge of subsurface ground water so as to prevent mobilization of existing subsurface contaminants. New monitoring wells installed in areas of vehicle or pedestrian traffic shall be constructed as flush-mount monitoring wells. 'Reque~;t for Action Page 3 11-24-03 Use Restrictions for the Restricted Area In addition to the Covenants restricting the use of the entire Property, the Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope hereby imposes the following Covenant on the Restricted Area: a) Pdor to the commencement of any subgrade construction activities or other disturbances to subsurface soil in the Restricted Area (e.g. utility installation, excavation, grading cuts, soil corrections, borings, drilling, etc.), a soil contamination monitoring plan must be prepared and submitted to and approved by MPCA and the City of New Hope. The soil contamination monitoring plan must describe: The methods to be used and actions to taken to monitor the disturbance and/or removal of contaminated soil. Plans for proper containment and disposal of any contaminated soil removed as part of the construction activities. Schedule for submitting a final report to the MPCA describing volume of soil removed, how it was disposed, and associated analytical data. 3. Commissioner Approval. Any action prohibited by the Covenants shall not occur without the prior approval of the Commissioner. a) Requests for the Commissioner's approval must be made in writing to the Commissioner. b) The Commissioner shall have 60 days after the receipt of a request to mail a response thereto. c) The Commissioner's response shall be in writing and shall approve or disapprove the request or require additional information be provided. d) A lack of response from the Commissioner shall not constitute approval by default or authorization to proceed with the requested activity. e) The Commissioner's approval may include conditions that the Commissioner deems reasonable and necessary to protect public health or the environment. f) The Commissioner's approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Maintenance Requirement_~. Generally, steps taken to minimize the infiltration of water runoff and monitor treatment of on-site contaminants must be maintained. Specifically, the following is reqtJired: a) Once placed, parking construction materials (e.g. bituminous, concrete, etc.) must be maintained to minimize openings in the surface that would allow precipitation to infiltrate into subsurface soils. b) On-site snow storage shall be permitted only on surfaces that convey runoff to storm sewers that discharge to an off-site location. c) Upon reasonable notice to the then-current Owner and at reasonable times, from time to time permission to enter upon the Property shall be granted to the MPCA, the City of New Hope, El, and/or their subcontractors, employees or agents for the purposes of sampling, inspection, construction, or decommissioning of MPCA required monitoring or treatment facilities. Request for Action Page 4 11-24-03 d) Subsurface soil ventilation systems must be monitored and maintained in working order at all times, in accordance with an MPCA approved Monitoring and Maintenance Plan. Should programmatic vapor testing show that vapors are not being collected by the soil vapor collection system, and that the potential for organic vapors to collect in on-site buildings is not a human health concern, the Owner may request from MPCA that the active vapor collection system use be discontinued. As mandated by the MPCA, the covenant will prohibit any future residential uses. The MPCA has no concerns relating to the uses proposed by the current interested developers. The covenant lists future triggering activities that will need review and approval of the MPCA, as well as lists future triggering activities that will need review and approval of the RCRA group of the MPCA, and the City, prior to any construction activities. These activities include excavation and dewatering in certain areas, monitoring well sampling construction and access, active soil vapor venting under all buildings, maintenance of pavement cover, snow storage and direction of all runoff into storm sewers. Monitoring and mitigation plans will need to be submitted to MPCA when site plans are firm. The City will be responsible for development and implementation of these monitoring and mitigation plans. The City's Environmental Consultant has prepared a proposal for consideration at tonight's meeting. The City has been working for many years to initiate the environmental cleanup process and subsequent commercial redevelopment of this site. In conjunction with cleanup funding grant applications submitted during the spring of 2002, the Council approved a Request for Proposal (RFP) process for the site. As a result of the RFP, the City received a proposal for the office condominium component of the current proposal. Using the office condominium proposal in the cleanup grant applications, the Department of Trade and Economic Development (DTED) rated New Hope's application #1 in the State of Minnesota due to the economic development and job creation potential. DTED subsequently approved a fully funded grant in partnership with a Hennepin County approved grant. Culver's restaurant/RSDS came later in the process and staff suggested they provide a joint development proposal with the office condominium developer which they have done. Staff has been in contact with DTED regarding the revised proposal. DTED indicated that they did not have any issue with the addition of a Culver's restaurant at the site and it will not affect the cleanup grant. Also, the proposed development will not conflict with the attached MPCA imposed Declaration of Environmental Restrictive Covenants. For additional background information please refer to the EDA Request for Action relating to the purchase agreements.

The Restricted Area is illustrated in Exhibit 2 for reference. Tank. "Tank" means the underground tank that was adjacent to the Building and was the source of the contamination. TCE. "TCE" means trichloroethylene. Ae Bo RECITALS Current Ownership. The Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope is the current fee owner of the entire Property. Partial Prior Ownership. EI was the fee owner of Parcel 7 of the Property from before 1984 until Parcel 7 was condemned by thc City of New Hope in 1993. The Final Certificate of the condemnation was filed in the Office of the Henncpin County Recorder on April 26, 1993 as document number 6117445. Contamination in General. A portion of the Property was the site of a release of TCE. Source of Contamination. The Tank was the source of the release of TCE. Water Table Contamination. Once the Tank lost its containment ability, the TCE leaked from the Tank and initially migrated vertically downward through sandy soils until it reached a clay layer approximately 15 feet below grade where concentrated TCE has collected in discrete areas. This clay layer, approximately 30 feet thick, also forms a barrier for the downward movement of water from the surface, and thereby creates a "perched" water table under the Property. The TCE, being in contact with the water table, has contaminated the water table aquifer in a localized area. 1984 Stipulation, In 1984 EI entered into a Stipulation Agreement with the MPCA, which required EI to properly investigate and remediate the identified release. EI owned Parcel 7 at the time that it entered into the 1984 Stipulation Agreement. Investigation and Clean Up Generally. The contamination of the water table has been the historical focus of EI's investigation and cleanup efforts. These efforts to date have consisted of several rounds of investigation and the Page 4 of 4 Le installation of monitoring wells, a soil vapor extraction system, an air sparge system, and a groundwater extraction and treatment system, including the following: The groundwater extraction system was installed in 1987. The soil vapor extraction system was installed in 1992. The air sparge system was installed in 1994. These efforts produced the following information: Observed TCE levels have ranged from 5 ppm to 290,000 ppm. Monitoring wells downgradient show ranges of near zero to 41 ppm. An estimated total of 7,000 pounds of TCE has been removed to date through the combination of these remediation systems. Lower Aquifer Investigation. In 1998, the MPCA required that the aquifer beneath the clay layer be investigated. Subsurface drilling and sampling of this aquifer was performed in 1998. Lower aquifer monitoring wells were also installed in 1998. Initial results from this sampling showed TCE concentrations up to 124,000 ug/1. This data suggested that the TCE accumulating on the top of the clay layer had migrated through the clay layer into the lower aquifer. Amounts of Contaminates Present. TCE, tetrachloroethylene (PCE), dichloroethylene (DCE), trans-DCE, cis-DCE, vinyl chloride, toluene, and methylene chloride are all historically documented to be present on the Property, in the amounts shown on the Exhibit 3 tables. Location of Contaminates Present. Residual contamination, primarily TCE exist in subsurface soil as well as groundwater in both the "perched" water table aquifer and the lower aquifer. Reports. Many investigative reports have been completed since 1983, the results of which are summarized in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Facility Investigation and Corrective Measures Study (February 2001 and revised January, 2002), Results from May 2001 Push Probe Investigation of the Clay (June 2001), Remediation Alternatives Report (August 2001), and the Corrective Measures Implementation Work Plan (October, 2001) prepared by Frontline Environmental, LLC, an environmental consulting firm currently located at 17450 Juneberry Court, Lakeville, Minnesota, 55044. The location of near surface contaminants at the Property is shown in Figure 1 of the Corrective Measures Implementation Work Plan. City's Aereement with the MPCA. The Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope has agreed with the MPCA to place the following restrictive Covenants on the Property. Page 5 of 5 COVENANTS NOW, THEREFORE, the Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope makes the following Covenants as to the limitations, restrictions and uses to which the Property may be put. The Covenants shall run with the Property as provided by law and shall be binding on all Interested Panics. The Property shall not be held, transferred, sold, conveyed, occupied, altered, or used in violation of the Covenants. Use Restrictions for the Entire ProperS,. The Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope hereby imposes the following Covenants on the Property: The Property may not be used for residential purposes of any kind or for any use that may result in significant human contact with the soil or ground water at the Property. "Residential purposes" shall be broadly defined, but at the least shall include those residential uses defined in the City of New Hope Zoning Code. All structures erected shall be constructed above grade (e.g., no basements, subgrade parking garages, etc.). Prior to the commencement of any subgrade construction activities or other disturbances that may require dewatering (e.g. construction dewatering, etc.), a ground water contamination monitoring plan must be prepared and submitted to and approved by the MPCA and the City of New Hope. The ground water contamination monitoring plan must describe: i. The methods to be used and actions to taken to monitor the disturbance and/or removal of contaminated ground water. ii, Plans for proper containment and disposal of any contaminated ground water removed as part of the construction activities. Any permanent structures erected at the Property that will be occupied by workers of any kind must have a subsurface vapor collection system designed and installed beneath the structure to collect potential organic vapors and prevent such vapors from accumulating in the structure. The vapor collection systems must be "active" vapor collection systems (i.e. electrical fans will continuously draw air from the collection system and discharge the air through roof vents). A vapor collection system implementation work plan shall be reviewed and approved by the MPCA prior to installation of the system. The work plan shall include a detailed system design, and a Monitoring and Maintenance plan for the system. Page 6 of 6 2J eJ Permanent facilities (e.g. buildings, parking surfaces, etc.) shall be designed to minimize infiltration of precipitation runoff (rainwater, snow melt) by routing all such precipitation runoff to storm sewers that carry, the runoff off-site. This shall be done to minimize recharge of subsurface ground water so as to prevent mobilization of existing subsurface contaminants. f. New monitoring wells installed in areas of vehicle or pedestrian traffic shall be constructed as flush-mount monitoring wells. Use Restrictions for the Restricted Area. In addition to the Covenants restricting the use of the entire Property, the Economic Development Authority of the City of New Hope hereby imposes the following Covenant on the Restricted Area: Prior to the commencement of any subgrade construction activities or other disturbances to subsurface soil in the Restricted Area (e.g. utility installation, excavation, grading cuts, soil corrections, borings, drilling, etc.), a soil contamination monitoring plan must be prepared and submitted to and approved by MPCA and the City of New Hope. The soil contamination monitoring plan must describe: The methods to be used and actions to taken to monitor the disturbance and/or removal of contaminated soil. ii. Plans for proper containment and disposal of any contaminated soil removed as part of the construction activities. 111.

Subsurface soil ventilation systems must be monitored and maintained in working order at all times, in accordance with an MPCA approved Monitoring and Maintenance Plan. Should programmatic vapor testing show that vapors are not being collected by the soil vapor collection system, and that the potential for organic vapors to collect in on-site buildings is not a human health concern, the Owner may request from MPCA that the active vapor collection system use be discontinued.

As you know, Electronic Industries, Inc polluted this site. Subsequent to that pollution, the City purchased this property and is currently in the process of redeveloping it. However, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (hereinafter "MPCA") currently continues to exercise control over this property. Therefore, the MPCA is requiring the City to record a Declaration of Covenants against this property prior to its sale for redevelopment purposes. Pursuant to the guidelines provided by the MPCA, the City's Environmental Consultant, Doug Bergstrom, and myself prepared an initial draft of the proposed Declaration of Covenants. This draft was submitted to the MPCA for review and comment. The MPCA returned a "black-lined" version of the initial draft to us indicating the changes they would like made to the proposed Declaration of Covenants. The changes requested by the MPCA to the initial draft were relatively few and generally non-substantive. I reviewed the changes required by the MPCA and prepared the enclosed proposed final Declaration of Covenants. The enclosed proposed final Declaration of Covenants incorporates all of the changes required by the MPCA. As a further precaution, the enclosed proposed final Declaration of Covenants were also submitted to and approved by the MPCA. Therefore, the proposed final Declaration of Covenants may be submitted to the City Council and/or the President and Commissioners of the City's Economic Development Authority for consideration and approval. Please contact me with any questions or comments. Otherwise, I thank you for your attention to August 28, 2003 Page 2 this matter. Very truly yours, Douglas J. Debner, Asst.

COM Dexter J. Marston g4001 Retail Site Development Services 5775 Wayzata Blvd. Suite 700 Minneapolis, MN 55416 Re: 7500 - 7528 42nd Avenue North, New Hope, Minnesota Our File No.: 99.11288 Dear Mr. Marston: Please forgive me for including what may seem like excessive information in this letter. However, when I started work on this matter again, I found it helpful to create a time line of past events. I also thought it would be helpful to provide that time line to you for the sake of good communication. My file indicates that after the City received the initial drafts of proposed Purchase Agreements from you the following occurred: The first set of revisions to the Purchase Agreements is sent to you via e-mail. In the rush to get the fn'st set of revisions to you, some errors were made, so a corrected first set of revisions to the Purchase Agreements is sent to you via e-mail. "Pre-Application" meeting is held at City Hall with you and your clients. changes to the Purchase Agreements are discussed. At this meeting major The second set of revisions to the Purchase Agreements is sent to you via e-mail. A meeting is held at City Hall with the surveyor, City staff, you and your clients and us to discuss the platting of the property. It is my recollection that the Purchase Agreements were only briefly discussed at this time because Bernie wasn't certain he and his partner would be going forward with the purchase, but also because only small changes were needed at this point. Sentember 2~ 2003~ 8:30 a.m: A meeting is held at City Hall with City staff, the partners of Frey Development and City Attorney, Steven Sondrall. The purpose of this meeting is to address Frey Development's concerns about the contamination present on the property. · Nove/hber 3, 2003 Page 2 September 2~ 20037 at approximately 1 p.m.: I e-mailed what are expected to be the final Purchase Agreements to you and Ken Doresky. The only exception being that the limited assignment provision to be included in the JCS Development, Inc. Purchase Agreement needed to be completed with the name &the entity JCS wishes to assign the Purchase Agreement to. I have added date and time fields to the footer of the attached proposed fmal Purchase Agreements to help us all verif3.' that we are looking at the most recent versions. I have also now completed the JCS Purchase Agreement's assignment provision. In addition to the Purchase Agreements, I have also attached the proposed final Declaration of Covenants that is to be attached to each Purchase Agreement as Exhibit C. This is, of course, the version of the Declaration of Covenants approved by the Minnesota Polluhon Control Agency. There is one exception, however. The MPCA insisted that Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2 of the Declaration of Covenants be replaced with "to scale" exhibits. There is no legal reason for this to be done, but the MPCA wanted it and Ken has "to scale" documents so we agreed. We will be able to attached "to scale" documents to the original prior to recording. There is, however, no reason why we cannot use the attached Declaration of Covenants for the Purchase Agreements and I suggest we do so as this change is unimportant and not worth spending more time on than has already been spent. The Declaration of Covenants has been in its final approved form since August 28, 2003, but the City has not previously submitted it to the City Council/EDA. The Declarahon of Covenants were not previously submitted it to the City Council/EDA because City staff wanted to bring it simultaneously with the Purchase Agreements. Again, I have added date and time fields to the footer of this document to help us all verify that we are looking at the most recent version. The time line going forward is, I believe as follows: October 31~ 2003: I am to submit to the City a resolution to be passed by the EDA setting the public hearing for the property. November 47 2003: You indicated to me that you thought you would be able to have the Purchase Agreements signed by your clients and delivered to the City by this date. November 10, 20037 7:00 p.m. at City i:/all: The City Council/EDA meets. The EDA is expected to pass the resolution fixing a November 24, 2003, public hearing on the sale of this property. .November 247 20037 7:00 p.m. at CRV The City CounciVEDA meets. The EDA will hold a public hearing on the sale of this property. If no objections are raised thereto the EDA will pass a resolution approving the sale. The Declaration of Covenants are also expected be approved at this meeting. _November 25~ 2003: If not signed the night before, the Declaration of Covenants and Purchase Agreements will be signed by the City. office will then record the Declaration of Covenants against the property.

June 23, 2003 EDA REQUEST FOR ACTION Originating Department Approved for Agenda Agenda Section Community Development ~" 11-24-03 EDA · , I Item No. By: Kirk McDonald, Director of CD 'r/~ & Ken Doresk¥, CD Specialist By: .,, 6 RESOLUTION APPROVING ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROPOSAL FOR 7500 - 7528 42ND AVENUE NORTH PROPERTY (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 665) ACTION REQUESTED Staff is requesting EDA consideration of a resolution prepared by the City Attorney approving the attached environmental monitoring proposal from Diversified Environmental, the city's environmental consultant in the estimated amount of between $6,500 - $8,000. Due to the site contamination, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) exercises control over the property and therefore are requiring certain monitoring activities as ~art of the restrictive covenant and redevelopment. On June 23, 2003, the EDA considered a revised development proposal for the site. The EDA questioned whether the City should be required to bear the cost of further environmental activities required by the MPCA and outlined in the restrictive covenant rather than Electronic Industries, the Responsible Party. Due to the fact that the city is now the owner of the property and the activities are related to redevelopment of the site, staff recommends that the EDA approve the attached environmental monitoring proposal prepared by Diversified Environmental. Diversified has the expertise necessary to complete the activities required by the MPCA. El was responsible for site cleanup. El is fulfilling their responsibilities for site cleanup. Additionally, the City Attorney has submitted the following correspondence relating to the matter: "Please find attached a proposed Resolution Approving Environmental Monitoring Proposal for 7500-7528 42'd Avenue North Property. As you know, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency ("MPCA") requires the on site monitoring of any construction occurring on the above referenced land. The MPCA also requires preparation of a "contingency plan" for continued monitoring during construction and the disposal of any contaminated materials removed during construction. Additionally, the City is required by paragraph 15 of the Purchase Agreements to "apply for and obtain written assurance from the MPCA that Buyer[s] are not responsible for cleanup of hazardous materials that remain in the undisturbed soil and water of the Property (a "No Association" assurance letter)." In response to these requirements, the City's environmental consultant has provided the City with a "monitoring proposal". You have informed that you wish to bring that monitoring proposal before the EDA commissioners and asked me to provide you with a proposed resolution approving the monitoring proposal should the EDA commissioners deem it appropriate to do so. I believe the attached proposed Resolution # h\RFA\PLANNING\Electronic Industries\Q- Environmental Monitoring.doc Request for Action meets these requirements." Page 2 11-24-03 POLICY/PAST PRACTICE City goal #2 is to pursue the maintenance and redevelopment of commercial and residential properties within the City.. The EDA has been addressing the commercial portion of this goal through the City's many redevelopment activities. Over the past several years, the city's environmental consultant has been assisting staff with this site. BACKGROUND Diversified Environmental, the city's environmental consultant has been overseeing site cleanup activities and performing various site responsibilities as needed. Diversified Environmental has submitted a proposal for EDA consideration at tonight's meeting to oversee the final environmental responsibilities prior and during redevelopment. Many activities are required by the MPCA and are outlined within the Restrictive Covenant to ensure proper redevelopment of the site. Diversified Environmental will prepare the State VIC (Voluntary Investigation Cleanup) application for "No Association" letters for the developers, as well as the related and required contingency plan for testing and handling of any contaminants disturbed during redevelopment construction activities. Diversified Environmental has been assisting the city with this site since the contamination was originally discovered in 1984. The monitoring proposal (attached) is as follows: "This memo is to make certain that the City is aware of some of the environmental activities and related costs that will or may be incurred as part of the Electronic Industries redevelopment. The following table summarizes currently expected costs: Task Relative certainty Estimated cost Comments of cost VIC Application Relatively certain $1,000-$1,500 Depends on developer information received and MPCA staff time billed On-site Estimated $3,000-$4,000 Depends on construction design and environmental monitoring contractor scheduling Development of Relatively certain $2,500 contingency plan Total estimated cost to City $6,500-$8,000 The information below describes such activities and expected costs, as best I can determine with the information available at this time: 1. Preparation of MPCA ViC application: The buyers of the properties understandably want written assurance from the MPCA that they are not responsible for the El site cleanup. This is obtained through application to the MPCA VIC (Voluntary Investigation and Cleanup) program, where a "No Association" assurance letter will be requested. The following information has been requested by MPCA to be included in the VIC application: · Site plan and associated text describing nature of business activities after redevelopment; · Grading plan; · Geotechnical drilling plan; · Subsurface utilities plan; · Construction time line; · Copy of Restrictive Covenant; and · Request for Action Page 3 11-24-03 Contingency plan, describing environmental monitoring activities during construction, plans to handle and dispose of any contaminated soil and/or groundwater encountered during construction, and plans to protect the health of contractors working at the site. Presumably, the first five items above will be prepared by the developer (and/or their subcontractors) at no cost to the City. The Restrictive Covenant has already been prepared, and is currently under review by MPCA and the Attorney General's office. The total estimated cost for preparing the VIC application by Diversified Environmental is estimated at approximately $500. MPCA staff time for processing the request is billed to the applicant, and these costs are expected to range between $500-$1,000. 2. On-site Environmental Monitoring During Construction: On-site monitoring of certain construction activities by an environmental professional will be required by both the Restrictive Covenant and the VIC program. This work will be performed by a trained environmental field technician from Braun Intertec under the general direction of Diversified Environmental. Braun Intertec was selected to perform this work based on their reputation and my past experience with them. The field technician will be on-site during grading activities near the contaminated area, during subsurface excavation of utilities, and during geotechnical drilling activities. Their work will involve monitoring excavated soils for the presence of contaminants primarily using a portable photoionization detector. If contaminated soils are detected, they will be stockpiled separately from clean soils for later disposal. At the conclusion of on-site monitoring activities, they will provide a letter report of their activities and observations. Daily costs for the field technician and equipment will be approximately $750/day; for planning purposes, I would anticipate a total of 4 to 5 days on-site. Their work will be governed by the attached proposal from Braun Intertec. 3. Development of Contingency Plan: MPCA has indicated that it will require development of a contingency plan for use during construction activities, which will address the details of on-site soil/ground water monitoring activities, segregation and disposal of any contaminated materials removed, and protection of contractor worker health during construction activities. This contingency plan can be developed by Diversified Environmental, and is anticipated to cost approximately $2,500. Other Environmental Costs to be Paid by Developers Other environmental costs that may or will be incurred include: 1. Disposal of Contaminated Soil/Ground Water: It is not now known whether contaminated soil and/or groundwater will be encountered during on-site construction activities; it hoped and possible that disposal of these materials will not be necessary. Should it become necessary that contaminated soil be excavated/removed, it is possible that MPCA will allow us to return the materials into the excavation, in which case disposal costs would not be incurred. MPCA is unlikely to allow return of soil to the excavation; therefore total costs for disposal can be significant. For example, excavated soil with elevated levels of TCE is typically put in 55-gallon drums and shipped out-of- state for disposal in a hazardous waste landfill at a cost of approximately $500-$1000 per drum plus permitting costs. Given that it takes approximately 4 drums to contain one cubic yard of soil, disposal costs can mount rapidly. Any contaminated water that may be removed during such operations as construction dewatering would also need to be disposed of properly, although it is possible that such water (if contaminant levels are relatively Iow) may be able to be properly disposed of at relatively small cost through MWCC sewage treatment. For containment of soil disposal costs, it will be important to work with the developer's engineering and construction contractors to minimize their work in contaminated areas through appropriate planning and design. Request for Action Page 4 11-24-03 2. Design and Installation of Active Vapor Collection Systems in Buildings: The Restrictive Covenant contains a requirement that all occupied buildings constructed at the site have active (powered) vapor collection systems that collect any residual organic vapors from under the floor slab and discharge such vapors above the roof. The MPCA VIC staff indicated that they wish to review and approve the engineering design of these systems. It is planned that these plans and specifications will be prepared and paid by the developers."

BRAUN INTERTEC Braun Intertec Corporation September 3, 2003 Proposal BL-03-00945 Mr. Kirk McDonald Director, Community Development City of New Hope 4401 Xylon Avenue North New Hope, MN 55428 Dear Mr. McDonald: Re: Proposal to Conduct Environmental Field Services, Electronic Industries Site Redevelopment, New Hope, Minnesota. At the request of Doug Bergstrom of Diversified Environmental, Inc., Braun Intertec Corporation (Braun Intertec) is submitting this proposal to conduct environmental field services related to the proposed redevelopment of the Electronic Industries Site in New Hope, Minnesota (the "site"). Our proposed Scope of Services, based on our discussions with Mr. Bergstrom, is described below. Braun Intertec understands its work will be directed by Mr. Bergstrom on behalf of the City of New Hope. We also understand that the fees for our services will be invoiced directly to the City of New Hope. Proposed Scope of Services The following scope of services is proposed for this project: Provide an environmental technician to conduct excavation oversight and soil characterization during earthwork activities such as geotechnical evaluation, geotechnical soil correction, soil excavation for utility installations and rough grading of the site. The technician will observe soil samples collected from the excavations for visible and incidental olfactory indications of contamination and screen soil samples periodically for total organic vapors using a photoionization detector (PID) and the headspace procedure recommended by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). Soils that exhibit contaminant levels exceeding applicable MPCA approved levels will be segregated and characterized for prOPer disposal, treatment and/or reuse at the site. Collect and chemically analyze soil samples, at the direction of Mr. Bergstrom, to characterize excavated contaminated soil for proper disposal, treatment and/or reuse at the site, and to evaluate the remaining soils in the finished excavation bases and sidewalls for residual contamination. Prepare an implementation letter report that will describe our soil-screening methods and results, the results of any chemical analyses conducted and the disposition of contaminated soils encountered, if any. · Providing en£meering and envtronmental solutions since 1957 City of New Hope Proposal BL-03-00945 September 3, 2003 Page 2 Cost Estimates Braun Intertec will invoice the City of New Hope for the services described above on an hourlv and unit cost basis in accordance with our current fee schedule (January 1, 2003).

Mr. Kirk McDomld, Director of Co~ty Development, stated staff is requesting concept consideration and authurmafion to prepare a purchase agreement with the developers for a joint development proposal for the city-owned site at 7500-7528 42'" Avenue North. The pwposal 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 FDA 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 elimin-ted from the proposal. He also reported that s~orm water pond/ng /ssues have been d/scussed with the developer. He/llusWated the rev/seal site phn.

June 23, 2003 ' ' EDA REQUEST FOR ACTION Originating Department Approved for Agenda Agenda Section Community Development (' 11-24-03 EDA By: Kirk McDonald, Director of CD "- 'i ' Item No. & Ken Doresk¥, CD Specialist By: ~ 7 RESOLUTION APPROVING PURCHASE ~,GREEMENT AND RELOCATION BENEFITS 7601 BASS LAKE ROAD (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT FILE 756) REQUESTED ACTION Staff recommends EDA consideration of a resolution prepared by the city attorney approving the purchase of property located at 7601 Bass Lake Road for it's appraised value of $220,000 and relocation estimate of $22,520. The purchase agreement is expected to be completed and signed by the property owner by the time of tonight's meeting. Krass Monroe, the city financial/redevelopment consultant recommends that the EDA now consider acquisitions of this type, instead of the City Council. As directed by the Council at the November 3, 2003, Work Session, staff will coordinate with Evergreen Land Services, the city's relocation consultant for payment of relocation benefits to all remaining sellers in the East Winnetka Livable Communities Area. The city's purchase offer will now consist of the appraised value and a relocation payment determined by the city's relocation consultant. The relocation estimate of $22,520 for this property is attached, but will be adjusted when the property owner moves and completes the purchase of another property (actual closing costs will be used proportionate to the purchase price of the subject property). POLICY/PAST PRACTICE City goal #2 is to pursue the maintenance and redevelopment of commercial and residential properties within the city. The EDA has been addressing the residential portion of this goal through the city's many housing activities, including acquiring properties from willing sellers in areas designated for redevelopment in the Comprehensive Plan. The city has been acquiring properties on a voluntary basis in the Winnetka/Bass Lake Road/Sumter Avenue area for potential future redevelopment purposes. Over the past several years, the city has acquireda total of seventeen (17) properties in this area. The city will be closing on 5500 Winnetka Ave. N. on December 8. The subject owner has indicated that they would like to complete this transaction ASAP. BACKGROUND On November 10, 2003, the Council authorized staff to negotiate the purchase of the subject property. As directed by the Council at the November 3~ Work Session, staff coordinated with Evergreen Land Services, the city's relocation consultant to prepare an estimate of relocation benefits. After the November 10 meeting, MOTION BY ~-/O~./ SECOND BY ,~? I:\RFA\PLANNING\Housin \7601\Q-7601 urchase a reement.doc Request for Action Page 2 '11-24-b3 staff requested that Evergreen prepare an estimation of relocation benefits for the subject property. Evergreen met with the owner and calculated the attached estimate of benefits ($22,520), dated November 13. On November 17, staff, the city attorney and the city's relocation consultant met with the owners to discuss the appraisal and relocation estimate. The owner was agreeable to the offer presented by the city. The owner indicated that they would like to complete the transaction ASAP. Staff feels that the city can close on the property in December. The city attorney submitted the following correspondence (attached) relating to the matter: "Please find enclosed for consideration at the November 24, 2003 Council meeting a proposed Resolution Approving Purchase Agreement and Relocation Benefits for 7601 Bass Lake Road. My legal assistant is working on the Purchase Agreement and I will provide that to you on Friday. It will be attached to this Resolution as Exhibit A. The Relocation analysis prepared by Evergreen Land Services, Inc. should be attached to this Resolution as Exhibit B. As indicated in the relocation analysis, the relocation benefit is estimated at $22,520.00. The actual amount will be determined after the moving expenses and actual closing costs for the Sellers' new property are determined. Evergreen will be responsible for determining this amount and processing the relocation payments accordingly. Please note that this is an Economic Development Authority acquisition and as a result, this Resolution needs to be on the EDA Agenda and not the City Council Agenda." On October 10, the Council authorized staff to obtain an appraisal of the subject property. Forsythe Appraisals, Inc, completed the appraisal and determined the property's value to be $220,000. The city received the attached correspondence dated September 29, 2003 from the property owner requesting that the city consider purchasing the subject property. The property is located within the Livable Communities East Winnetka Study Area and in Planning District 6. In 1998, the Council passed a resolution approving the city of New Hope Comprehensive Plan Update. In 1999, the Metropolitan Council approved the Comprehensive Plan Update. In the plan, the city was broken down into several planning districts. Planning District 6 is the district where the Winnetka, Bass Lake Road and Sumter properties that the city has been pursuing over the past few years are located. Planning District 6 is bordered by Winnetka Ave. N. to the west, C.P. Rail system to the south and Crystal to the east and north. The Comprehensive Plan targeted several areas in the city for redevelopment. Recommendations for Planning District 6 include the acquisition and redevelopment of sites located along the south side of Bass Lake Road, in the Bass Lake Road extension area and along the east side of Winnetka Ave. N. between 5340 Winnetka Ave. and Bass Lake Road. As referenced in the Comprehensive Plan Update, the recommendation to redevelop this area is intended to alleviate poor housing conditions, improve access onto Winnetka and Bass Lake Road and more fully utilize the land. In October 1999, the New Hope Economic Development Authority directed staff to contact residents along the east side of Winnetka Ave. N., between 5430 and 5550 to inquire if there was any interest in voluntary sales of these properties to the city. In March 2002, the Council directed staff to contact twenty (20) residents in Planning District 6 to again inquire if there was any interest in voluntary sales of these properties to the city. Since purchase solicitation letters were distributed, the city has purchased ten (10) of the seventeen (17) lots along the east side of Winnetka Ave. N. and seven (7) properties along Sumter Ave. N. and in the Bass Lake Road extension area (attached, please see a map of city-owned properties in Planning District 6). In 2000, the city received a Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Grant to study redevelopment opportunities in the roughly quarter-mile area encircling the intersection of Winnetka Ave. N. and Bass Lake Road. In 2001 and 2002, the Livable Communities Task Force studied redevelopment opportunities within the designated area. In 2002, the Council accepted the task force study. In February 2003, the Council selected ' Req~)est for Action Page 3 11-24-03 developers for each study area site based on proposals, except the west Winnetka site. Staff continues to coordinate with developers in the Livable Communities Area. The Hennepin County Estimated Market Value for the property is as follows: · Hennepin County o Taxes payable 2004, estimated market value: $160,000 ($50,500 Land & $109,500 Building) Staff contacted the Hennepin County Assessmbnt Department regarding the difference between the assessed value of $160,000 and the appraised value of $220,000. The assessor provided staff with the estimated market value for taxes payable 2004 (assessment year 2003). The information available on Hennepin County's web site is for taxes payable 2003 (assessment year 2002). Per the attached e-mail, the assessor provided the following comments, "In regards to the value of the property located at 7601 Bass Lake Rd, the appraisal done by Gregory V. Callahan for $220,000 was completed on October 20, 2003 and is current as of that date. This is a current full market value appraisal based on current sales activity. The 2003 assessed market value for property tax purposes is $160,000 and is assessed as of January 2"d 2003. The county uses a target ratio of 95% of value as indicated by the sales that occurred during our sales study period. For the 2003 assessment our sales study period was from October 1st, 2001 to September 30th 2002. Therefore some of the sales used to set the market value for the 2003 assessment are now two years old." On April 14, 2003, the New Hope City Council directed staff to consider utilizing services of a firm other than the appraisal firm that had been completing many residential property appraisals for the city, due to several discrepancies in previous appraisals. On May 22, staff and the city attorney met with Forsythe Appraisals, Inc., to discuss possible appraisal services. Forsythe Appraisals has considerable experience in completing appraisals and acquisition activities for governmental agencies in redevelopment areas. At this time, staff will utilize the services of Forsythe Appraisals, Inc. In the past, Forsythe has completed appraisals for the city and performed in a responsible manner. If a purchase of the property is completed, staff would attempt to sell the home to a house mover, demolish the foundation and restore the site to a maintainable condition. The property would then be landbanked in preparation for future redevelopment of the area. Up to this point, staff has required that wells and buried heating oil tanks (if existing) be sealed and/or removed at the expense of the seller. Now that the city is paying relocation expenses, the city attorney and relocation consultant are reviewing this past requirement. Staff recommends EDA approval of the attached resolution. FUNDING The subject property is located in an area where TIF funds can be expended. TIF funds would be used for property acquisition and associated holding costs. During the 2003 State Legislative Special Session, the city's TIF special legislation was passed. Staff is coordinating with Krass Monroe, the city's financial consultant to facilitate the necessary steps for implementation.

Rail System to the south, and Crystal to the east and north, with a jagged northern border. District 6 is primarily Iow density residential with areas of multi-family residential and commercial development scattered along Bass Lake Road. The following recommendations are offered for Planning District 6. The Iow density residential neighborhoods in District 6 are generally in good condition, however, two Iow density redevelopment target areas have been identified within Planning District 6. In addressing' the Iow~--. density residential land uses in District 6, the following recommendations are made: Co do The City will aggressively promote private reinvestment in the existing single family housing, through housing renovation seminars and programs, and the through the enforcement of the Point of Sale Housing Maintenance Code. Scattered site housing renovation and redevelopment will be pursued on selected lots within District 6. The City has targeted the Iow density residential area along Bass Lake Road and the Bass Lake Road extension. This area is characterized by small homes in marginal condition on large lots. The City will seek to acquire and redevelop these sites as new Iow to medium density residential land uses. A second Iow density residential area targeted for redevelopment consists of a number of very deep lots along Winnetka Avenue between Bass Lake Road and 53rd Avenue. The redevelopment of this area is intended to alleviate poor housing conditions, improve access onto Winnetka and more fully utilize the available land. 89 Com~..e.h_,e_n_~_i_ve .Plan Ulodate Development Frarr~work
