indicated the current asking price is $880,000.
Mr. McDonald stated the Eldorado Apartments are located in an area designated in
the City's Comprehensive Plan for future redevelopment.
The EDA expressed support for possible redevelopment.
Motion was made by Commissioner Cassen, seconded by Commissioner Norby, to

Redevelopment/Rehabilitation Project at 7610 Bass Lake Road.
Mr. Kirk McDonald, Director of Community Development, introduced Barb

complex at 7610 Bass Lake Road in conjunction with Project for Pride in Living
February 28, 2000
ADJOURNMENT
(PPL), the Northwest Community Revitalization Corporation (NCRC) and a variety
of funding agencies. The collaborative project consists of two separate sites: one at
7610 Bass Lake Road in New Hope and the second at 5111-5211 56th Avenue North
in Crystal. The projects in both cities, would be submitted to funding agencies for
consideration under a single funding request.
Mr. Chris Wilson explained the proposed project stating the existing I 1-unit
apartment building would have exterior improvements, attractive landscaping, an
expanded and resurfaced drive, and construction of garages. Interior work will
include new cabinets and counters, new carpeting, updated electrical, and wall
repair and painting. The market rate rents would range from $600 to $1,000
depending on unit size. He explained the rental criteria. The total cost of the
development is approximately $4.6 million.
President Enck questioned PPL's intentions to utilize the on-site manager from the
nearby PPL site for these additional units.
Mr. Wilson indicated a manager can normally handle 80 units. He pointed out the
existing New Hope site has 34 and the proposed project would add 24 units for a
total of 58 units.
Discussion ensued regarding support services offered by PPL. President Enck
questioned whether they would offer a parenting class. Resources such as area
churches and the Thorson Resource Center were identified. Ms. McCormick
indicated she would review PPL's self sufficiency management programs already
planned as well as the funding allocations.
Mr. Wilson noted that the project would be a partnership with PPL and the
Northwest Community Revitalization Corporation (also known as the Community
Housing Development Corporation/CHDO). The ownership structure has not been
determined yet.
Mr. George Garnett responded to the EDA's questions concerning funding. He
stated the financial request from New Hope would be $350,000.
Mr. McDonald reminded the EDA that at this time staff is seeking 'concept'
approval only.
The EDA expressed support for the project, but directed staff to determine the
City's financial commitments for such a project as well as available funding sources
before additional effort is expended.
Motion was made by Commissioner Collier, seconded by Commissioner Thompson,
to adjourn the meeting. All present voted in favor. Motion carried. The New Hope
EDA adjourned at 8:17 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

MOTION AUTHORIZING STAFF TO NEGOTIATE WITH PROPERTY OWNER FOR POTENTIAL
ACQUISITION OF 8113 BASS LAKE ROAD BY CITY (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 677)
REQUESTED ACTION
Staff is requesting approval of a motion authorizing staff to negotiate with the property owner for the
potential acquisition of the fourplex property at 8113 Bass Lake Road by the City for redevelopment
purposes.
POLICY/PAST PRACTICE
IN 1993, the EDA established a loan program directed at maintaining multi-family rental housing and
also has considered the purchase/demolition/redevelopment of targeted multi-family properties in the
City, such as Regent Apartments. The new Comprehensive Plan update identifies this property as a
potential redevelopment site.
BACKGROUND
In May 1999, the City received correspondence from the new owner of this property requesting
consideration of financial assistance to make improvements to the property, including new roof
windows, exterior doom, drain tile, parking area and landscaping. The property has no garages. The
EDA responded that they did not know if the financial investment in the property would be worthwhile
and to inquire if the owner would be interested in selling the property, and staff conveyed that response
to the owner in correspondence.
In February 2000, staff received new correspondence from the owner stating that he is interested in
selling the property, with a proposed sale price of $185,000. If the City is not interested, the letter states,
the owner will sell the building outright.

Request for Action Page 2 3-27-00
At the February 14 EDA meeting, staff requested authorization to obtain an appraisal of the property,
which the EDA authorized. The appraisal has now been completed and the estimated market value of
the property is $171,000. Staff is requesting authorization to meet with the property owner and
potentially negotiate the purchase of the property based on the appraisal and other factors, such as the
terms of the leases, which would have an impact on relocation benefits.
The building was constructed in 1958 and has a 1999 market value for tax purposes of $136,000 (land
$26,000/building $110,000). There is a twin fourplex building located adjacent to this building (8109 Bass
Lake Road) that is under separate ownership. Both properties are located on the south side of Bass
Lake Road, just west of Lyndale Garden Center, and have a shared access off of Bass Lake Road.
These properties have been designated in the Comprehensive Plan for either redevelopment or
substantial rehabilitation.
If the City pursues the acquisition of the property, the plan would be to demolish the structure, potentially
acquire the adjacent property, and redevelop the site. The City Manager and Community Development
Director have recently met with New Hope resident Duane Reynolds regarding a possible development
by Vinland Center/Living Works Ventures of a lodge on the site for individuals with disabilities (see
attached information).
FUNDING
The property is currently not located in an area where TIF funds can be expended, therefore, EDA or
CDBG funds would be used to pay for the cost of the appraisal.

Condition of the improvements, mpai*a needed, quality of constmalke, addilional features, medemizatkm, et=: The current owner purchased the property one
and in the interveninq time has been attempting to do some needed repairs and improvements. He has spent approximately
i new exterior windows to the home~ but that proiect is not yet completed. All ofthe apartments have been repainted.
number one in the basement has new kitchen fioodncJ~ new bathroom flooring~ and a new refrigerator. Apartment number
two in the basement has new carpetingI appliancesr and kitchen vinyl. Apartment number three upstairs has new kitchen appliances
and bedroom carpetingr and apartment number four upstairs has a new bathroom floorr including a new subfloor~ as well as new
)roblems with water in the basement~ especially visible in the laundry room. There is now a sump
in the bas~.,ent with drain tile in the rear. As previously mentionedr the owner has also reqraded the far south end of the site in
order to remedy some of the drainage problems on the property. Remaining items left to be upgraded on the property include finishinc
the installation of the exterior windows, a new roof, and perhaps a new motor for the gas hot water heat boiler. Also the owner started
' some of the exterior wood trimr and that is not yet finished.
D~,~-.;,,;ion (physical, f~ncticnal, and external inadequaces, et=): The subiect is located on busy Bass Lake Road, County Road 10~ but the four-plax
is set further back on the site. Busy streetlocations do not seemto bea detriment to investment properties, as tenants appreciate
close to arterial streets. Physical depreciation for that property is noted because of the upkeep of the pro~,er~y, both in the
interior and the exterior. The upstairs units have hardwood flooring, and some of the bedroom and living room carpeting has been
and downstairs, but there are still several areas where there is older and stained carpeting. General life expectancy
tables for four-unit properties indicate an average economic life for a property from 50-55 years. After co~padng the subject to other
in the area and other investment properties, it is estimated that the subject has an effective age of 30 years, with remaininc~
economic life of 20 years.
Adverse environmental conditions (such as, but not limited Io, hazardous wastes, toxic substances, etc.) present in the improvements, on the site, or in
the immediate vicinity of/he subject properly: No adverse environmental conditions were noted at the time of the time of the inspection.

Comments on Cost Approach (such as, source of cost estimate, site value,
square foot calculation and, for HUD and VA, the estimated remaining
economic life of the property): Cost estimates were made using the
Marshall Swift Residential Cost Guide for multi-family units. Site
value is estimated usinq market sales and allocation methods, and
estimated at $3.00 per square foot. The remaininc) economic life
of the property was estimated to be 20 years, with the property
60% depreciated.

Analysis of rental data and supl~ for estmatad rna~et rents for the individual subjuct units ('mctuding the adjustments used, the adequacy of compamblee, rental cartoons, etc.)
All of the subject units have been rented to new tenants over the previous year~ as the new owner had to evi~ all of the previous tenants
after he purch~_~_~d the property in February of 1999. The most reoently rented units in the subject ara rented for $675.00~ which appears
to be at the top of the current rental market. Comparable rental number one is a townhouse style and more contemporary four-ptex~ a
side by side brick and stucco building. One year ago when the property was sold~ rents were $706.00 for a larger unit than the subject.
That also included a two car attached garage for each unit. Comparable rental number two units have been renting for $600.00. The
owner of that property indioated that was below market rent, but ha has had those renters for a long period of time~ and did not want to
increase rent rapidly.
SubJact*e rent schedule The rent schedule reconciles the applicable i~dicated monthly market rents to the appropriate subject unit, and provides the estimated rents
for the subject property. The appraiser must review the rent characteristics of the comparable sales to determine whether estimated rents should reflect actual or market
rents. For example, if actual rents were available on the sales comparabias and used to derive the gross rent multiplier (GRM), actual rents for the subject should bs
used. If market rents were used to construct the comparables' rents and derive tho GRM, market rents should be used. The total gross estimated rent must represent
rent characiadsflcs consistent with the saJes comparab4e data us~:l to de~ve tho GRM. 'J'ha total gro~ entimatad ant is not ndjustad f~' vacancy.

Comments on the rent schedule, actual rents, estimated rents (especially regarding differences between actual and estimated rents), utiliiias, etc.:
As previously mentioned, the subiect currently has three units renting for $675.00 and one for $650.00. The $676.00 appears to be
currently at the top of the rental range for two bedroom units in the area. Total gross estimated rent also includes approximately $100.00
of monthly income from the laundry facilities. The washer and dryer in the building are leased by the owner.

Legal Description
Unplatted 06 118 21 E 80 Ft of W 580 Ft of that part of W 1/2 of NE 1/4 of SE 1/4 lying N or S 292 5/10 Ft thereof and S
of road
Neighborhood boundaries and characteristics
The subject's immediate neighborhood is bordered by 62nd Avenue North to the north, Douglas Drive or County Road 102
to the east, Medicine Lake Road or County Road 70 to the south, and U.S. Highway 169 to the west. Those borders
generally mark the borders of the city of New Hope, but also include parts of the City of Crystal on the east_ New Hope is a
northwestern Hennepin County suburban community with a population of approximately 22,000 residents. There is an area
of industrial land use contiguous to Highway 169, with multi-family and commercial development located along Bass Lake
Road, Winnetka Avenue, and Medicine Lake Road. New Hope ia in the Robbinsdale School District, with Hostermann
Middle School and Winnetka Elementary School located very close to the subject.
Comparison of listings to subject property
The Multiple Listing Service currently does not have any listings of 4-plexes within New Hope or the immediate northern
suburbs. The only listing available was taken off the market in January after 18 days. It is generally found that investment
properties of four units or larger are either sold by word of mouth or else an investment broker. The only listing that is
mentioned here was put on the Multiple Usting Service by the owner/broker. It is a property similar to the subject in size
and vintage. It was taken off the market after the owner decided to keep the property.
Comments
Current R3 zoning for the property is medium density residential, and the subject's lot size would allow up to five units on
that site, so the subject does conform. However, current zoning also requires covered parking space for each unit, but the
subject property was built in 1960, so its surface parking lot is grandfathered into the parking requirements. The subject
property also shares an adjacent parking lot with the property owner at 8109 Bass Lake Road. In order to reach the parking
lot of the subject, one must drive across the rear of the adjacent propen'7 at 8109 Bass Lake Road. The two property
owners share maintenance and upkeep for the parking lot. During the summer of 1999 the two property owners regraded
the south end of both sites, in an attempt to improve drainage on the property.
Comments on Sales Comparison
Two of the comparable sales are located in the adjacent city of Crystal, from one and one-half to two miles east of the
subject. Comparable sale number two is in New Hope, the same city as the subject, but is three and one-half miles south.
They are all four-plexes of similar vintage, design and quality. Major adjustments had to be made for condition, square
footage, and date of sale. Because of the aforementioned rising market both in demand for listings and also sale pdces,
Twin Cities Realtors report an average increase in sales prices for both residential and investment properties in the New
Hope/Crystal/Robbinsdale neighborhood of approximately 12%. Median values have been increasing. The Minneapolis
Star Tribune recently reported statistics from the Multiple Listing Service for 1998 and 1999 home sales. The City of New
Hope had a 1998 median home sale of $125,000, and in 1999 a median home sale of $139,000, an increase of 11.2%.
Crystal reported an increase of 13.9%, and Robbinsdale reported a 17.2% increase. Because of the aforementioned dearth
of rental properties available for sale, average sale prices for rental properties also have been increasing. Therefore a date
of sale or time adjustment was made for the three comparabies at a 12% annualized rate.
The first comparable is a similar vintage four-plex with slightly smaller square footage. Its location was similar. An
approximate 5% condition adjustment is given for the better external condition of the buiiding. The home did not have
window air conditioning. There is some fencing surrounding the property.
The second comparable was listed on the Multiple Listing Service, and sold after only one day on the market. The Realtor
stated that the property was in very good condition, with all new carpeting and paint and units very well kept. Therefore a
10% condition adjustment is applied. It has a slightly better location, as it is only one block from shopping, but located in a
more residential and single family neighborhood. There was also a four car detached garage, slightly under 1,000 square
feet, making covered parking available for each tenant. Therefore a 5% adjustment is applied for its location and parking
facilities.
The third comparable is a four-ptex similar to the subject and comparable number one. Its condition, however, is similar to
the subject, so positive adjustments are only made for the smaller square footage and the date of sale. It also lacks the
window air conditioning units.
The three comparable sales indicate a range of value for the subject from $165,600 to $173,100. Sales one and two would
indicate a value on the higher end, as they have slightly more upgrades than the subject. Sale number three was on the
lower end of the range because of fewer upgrades. As the subject does have some newer windows and also some newer
floor coverings, a value towards the h;gher end of the range would be indicated. Therefore the indicated market value for
the subject is $171,000.
A gross rent multiplier for the subject was difficult to determine, as available gross rent multipliers for the three comparable
sales were difficult to find. The subject at the time of its sale one year ago had approximate gross rent multiplier of 60, but
gross rent multipliers have been rising because of the increasing rents and sales prices. Therefore the gross rent multiplier
for the subject was estimated to be 65.
Final Reconciliation:
AJI three approaches to val{Je were considered in arriving at an indicated fair market value for the subject. The cost
approach is not as reliable for a 40 year old building. Prospective buyers of income property most likely look at the
anticipated income stream, and would most consider the sales per unit price of properties that have sold within the
immediate market. The sales comparison analysis has proven to be the most reliable. That would indicate a current
market value for the subject of $171,000. This report has been prepared according to the Uniform Standards of
Professional Appraisal Practice. The intended use of the appraisal report is to establish a market value for the property in

GEFINmON OF MARKET VALUE: The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market
under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgeably and assuming the price is not
affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from
seller to buyer under conditions whereby: (1) buyer and seller are typically motivated; (2) both parties are well informed or well advised,
and each acting in what he considers his own best interest; (3) a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; (4) payment
is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and (5) the price represents the normal
consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or c~eative financing or sales concessions' granted by anyone associated with the
sale.
*Adjustments to the comparables must be made for special or oreative financing or sales concessions. No adjustments are necessary for
those costs which are normally paid by sellers as a result of tradition or law in a market area; these costs are readily identifiable since the
seller pays these costs in virtually ali sales transactions. Special or oreative financing adjustments can be made to the comparable property
by comparisons to financing terms offered by a third party institutional lender that is not already involved in the property or transaction. Any
adjustment should not be calculated on a mechanical dollar for dollar cost of the financing or concession but the dollar amount of any
adjustment should approximate the markers reaction to the financing or concessions based on the Appraiser's judgment.
STATEMENT OF LIMITING CONDITIONS AND APPRAISER'S CERTIFICATION
CONTINGENT AND LIMITING CONDITIONS: The appraiser's certification that appears in the appraisal report is subject to the
following conditions:
1. The appraiser will not be responsible for matters of a legal nature that affect either the property being appraised or the title to it. The
appraiser assumes that the title is gooc[ and marketable and, therefore, will not render any opinions about the title. The property is appraised
on the basis of it being under responsible ownership.
2. The appraiser has provided a sketch in the appraisal report to show approximate dimensions of the improvements and the sketch is
included only to assist the reader of the report in visualizing the property and understanding the appraiser's determination of its size.
3. The appraiser has examined the available flood maps that are provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or other data
sources) and has noted in the appraisal report whether the subject site is located in an identified Special Flood Hazard Area. Because the
appraiser is not a surveyor, he or she makes no guarantees, express or implied, regarding this determination.
4. The appraiser will not give testimony or appear in court because ha or she made an appraisal of the property in question, unless specific
arrangements to do so have been made beforehand.
5. The appraiser has estimated the value of the land in the cost approach at its highest and best use and the improvements at their
contributory value. These separate valuations of the land and improvements must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal and
are invalid if they are so used.
6. The appraiser has noted in the appraisal report any adverse conditions (such as, needed repairs, depreciation, the presence of hazardous
wastes, toxic substances, etc. ) observed during the inspection of the subject property or that he or she became aware of during the normal
research involved in performing the appraisal. Unless otherwise stated in the appraisal report, the appraiser has no knowledge of any hidden
or unapparent conditions of the property or adverse environmental conditions (including the presence of hazardous wastes, toxic
substances, etc. ) that would make the property more or less valuable, and has assumed that there are no such conditions and makes no
guarantees or warranties, express or implied, regarding the condition of the property. The appraiser will not be responsible for any such
conditions that do exist or for any engineering or testing that might be required to discover whether such conditions exist. Because the
appraiser is not an expert in the field of any ronmental hazards, the appraisal report must not be considered as an environmental assessment
of the property.
7. The appraiser obtained the information, estimates, and opinions that were expressed in the appraisal report from sources that he or she
considers to be reliable and believes them to be true and correct. The appraiser does not assume responsibility for the accuracy of such
items that were furnished by other parbes.
8. The appraiser will not disclose the contents of the appraisal report except as provided for in the Uniform Standards of Professional
Appraisal Practice.
9. The appraiser has based his or her appraisal report and valuation conclusion for an appraisal that is subject to satisfactory completion,
repairs, or alterations on the assumption that completion of the improvements will be performed in a workmanlike manner.
10. The appraiser must provide his or her prior written consent before the lender/client specified in the appraisal report can distribute the
appraisal report (including conclusions about the property value, the appraiser's identity and professional designations, and references to
any professional appraisal organizations or the firm with which the appraiser is associated ) to anyone other than the borrower; the
mortgagee or its successors and assigns; the mortgage insureri consultants; professional appraisal organizations; any state or federally
approved financial institution; or any department, agency, or instrumentality of the United States or any state or the District of Columbia;
except that the lender/client may distribute the property description section of the report only to data collection or reporting service(s)
without having to obtain the appraiser's prior written consent. The appraiser's written consent and approval must also be obtained before
the appraisal can be conveyed by anyone to the public through advertising, public relations, news, sales, or other media.

APPRAISERS CERTIFICATION: The Appram~ certes and ~;rses th~
1. I have researched the subject market area and have selected a minimum of three recent sales of properties m0~'*t s~milor and proximate
to the subject property for consideration in the sales comparison analysis and have made a dofiar adjustment when appropriate to reflect the
market reaction to those items of significant variation. If a significant item in a comparable property is superior to, or more favorable than,
the subject property, I have mede a negative adjustment to reduce the adjusted sales price of the comparable and, ~f a signiticant item in a
comparabis property is inferior to, or less favorable than the subject property, I have made a positive adjustment to increase the adjusted
2. I have taken into consideration the factors that have an impact on value in my development of the estimate of market value in the
appraisal report. I have not knowingly withheld any significant information from the appraisal report and I believe, to the best of my
kno~ed~e, that all statements and information in the appra~sel report are frue and correct.
3. I stated in the appraisal report only my own personal, unbiased, and professional analysis, opinions, and conclusions, which are subject
only to the contingent and limiting cond~ons sped~d in th~s form.
4. I have no present or prospective interest in the property that is the subiect to this report, and I have no present or prospective personal
interest or bias with respect to the participants in the transaction. I did not base, either partially or completely, my analysis andJor the

prospective owners or occupants of the subject property or of the present owners or occupants of the properties in the vicinity of the
subject property.
5. I have no present or contemplated future interest in the subject property, and neither my current or future employment nor my
compensation for pedorming this appraisal is contingent on the appraised value ofrne property.
6. I was not required to report a predetermined value or direction in value that favors the cause of the client or any related party,
the amount of the value estimate, the attainment of a specific result, or the occurrence of a subsequent event in order to receive my
compensation and/or employment for performing the appraisal. I did not base the appraisal report on a requested minimum valuation, a
specific valuation, or the need to approve a specific mortgage loan.
7. I performed this appraisal in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice that were adopted and
promulgated by the Appraisal Standards Board of The Appraisal Foundation and that were in place as of the effective date of this appraisal,
with the exception of the departure provision of those Standards, which does not apply. I acknowledge that an estimate of a reasonable
time for exposure in the open market is a condition in the definition of market value and the estimate I developed is consistent with the
marketing time noted in the neighborhood section of this relx~t, unless I have othenvise stated in the reconciliation section.
8. I have personally inspected the interior and exterior areas of the subject property and the exterior of all properties listed as comparables

significant professional assistance from any individual or individuals in the performance of the appraisal or the preparation of the appraisal
report, I have named such individual(s) and disclosed the specific tasks performed by them in the reconciliation section of this appraisal

Dear Mr. McDonald,
I am the owner of the fourplex located at 8113 Bass Lake Road in New Hope. Last year
we discussed the possibility of rehabbing the building with some financial help from the
City of New Hope. The city' s response included an offer to buy the building for
demolition rather than investing a considerable amount in rehab.
After giving this serious consideration, I am interested in selling the building. I propose a
sale price of $185,000. If the city is not interested, I will sell the building outright.
I would appreciate your consideration of this proposal and a response at your earliest
convenience.
Sincerely,
Steve Martinetti

Subject: Request for Financial Assistance for Potential Rehabilitation Project at 8113 Bass Lake Road
Dear Mr. Martinetti: '
At the May 10 New Hope Economic Development Authority meeting, the EDA discussed your request
for financial assistance in the form of a loan to rehabilitate the fourplex property you recently purchased
at 8113 Bass Lake Road (see attached EDA request). The EDA was pleased that you want to improve'
the property.
Due to the fact that your property is located in an area designated by the City's Comprehensive Plan for
potential redevelopment, the EDA directed staff to pursue two potential options:
1. Inquire if you might be interested in selling the property to the City for redevelopment purposes. The
City would try to acquire several adjacent properties, demolish the structures, and market the
property for redevelopment of townhomes.
2. Pursue the rehabilitation option. If you do not want to sell the property, the EDA may be interested in
working with you to upgrade the property. However, the EDA questioned whether a significant re-
investment in the property would be worthwhile for you financially.
If you are interested in potentially selling the property to the City, the first step the City would take would
be to obtain an appraisal of your property to determine the fair market value. If the rehab option is
pursued, we should meet to discuss the specific improvements you would like to make along with the
cost estimates. Per the EDA report, we would also need to have a financial consultant review your
records to determine your ability to repay the loan.
Family Styled City ~ For Family Living
Now is an opportune time to l'~:ommence discussion with the property owner
regarding the EDA's purdmse of 7500 42'" Avenue. The opponumty presents
itself due to the pending vacation of the property by the current tenant, Ardel
Engineenng, by June 1.
He stated the enclosed resolution authorizes the EDA to obtain an updated
appraisal of the property and commence negotiations with the property owner for
acquisition of the property as of June 1, when the properly officially becomes
vacant and unoccupied. This will allow the City to avoid payment of tenant
relocation expenses, which has been the policy for acquisition of all properties
initiated by an owner's request to sell to the City or £DA under the scattered site
acquisition policy.
The owner has recently obtained his own appraisal of the property indicating a
market value of $545,000. Once the City has its appraisal on the property updated,
the EDA will need to determine the dollar amount it is willing to authorize as a
ceiling for acquisition. The owner has also indicated that he wants to be
reimbursed for lost rent during the month of June in the event he agrees to keep
the property vacant, so there should be som~ discussion concerning the amount of
a non-refundable payment to the property owner in consideration for his agreement
to keep the property vacant during the negotiation period~
Mr. McDonald also noted that since the dealings in 1997, the anomey for the
property owner has become a panner of the City Attorney, and the City Attorney
requested that the EDA be made aware of this fact.
The EDA expressed support for the acquisition.
In response to questions concerning possible soil contamination, City Attorney
Sondrall noted there does not appear to be soil contamination on the Ardel
property. Mr. Donahue, City Manager, interjected that the property will be
examined prior to any purchase.
Mr. Sonclrall discussed the two paragraphs in the proposed resolution which have
blanks (//4 and #5). He stated the ftrst blank will be completed to authorize the
Executive Director to commence negotiations for a fair negotiated amount but at a ·
price not to exceed the amount of the appraisal. He commented that paragraph//5
concerning a non-refuodable fee would be deleted from the resolution.
EDA Commissioner Norby introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption:
RESOLUTION 99-07 "RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING APPRAISALS AND COMMENCEMENT
OF NEGOTIATIONS TO ACQUIRE 7500 42~ AVENUE NORTH
(IMPROVEMF_,NT PROJECT NO. 474) ". The motion for the adoption of the
foregoing resolution was seconded by Commissioner Collier, and upon vote being
taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: Enck, Cassen, Collier, Norby,
Thompson; and the following voted against the same: None; Abstained: None;
Absent: None; whereupon the resolution was declared duly passed and adopted,
signed by the president which was attested to by the executive director.
8113 BASS LAKE RD ~'~President Enck introduced for discussion Item 5, Discussion Regarding Request for
Item 5 Financial Assistance for Potential Rehabilitation Project at 8113 Bass Lake Road.
..... Mr. McDonald, Director of Commlmity Development, provided background of the
fourplex property al 8113 Bass Lake Road. He stated the property formerly owned
New Hope-EDA
Page 2 May 10, 1999
ADJOURNMENT
by David Espeland is now und~ new ownership. The building was constructed in
1958 and has a market val~ of $136,000 (land $26,000/building $110,000). The
building has a brick exterior, but is in need of substantial repairs, including roof
and window replacement, rain gutters, exterior doors, drain tile, a boiler and
general .interior upgrading. The parking area needs resurfacing, additional
landscaping is needed and no garages are available on the site. The owner has
estimated the project cost at $15,000, however, staff estimate it will be at least
twice that amount. There is a twin fourplex building located adjacent to this
building (8109 Bass lake Road) that is under separate ownership. Both properties
are located on the south side of Bass Lake Road, just west of Lyndale Garden
Cemer, and have a shared access off of Bass Lake Road.
Mr. McDonald explained that these properties have been designated in the
Comprehensive Plan for either redevelopment or substantial rehabilitation. Staff is
pleased that the new owner wants to cooperate with the City on potential
improvements to the property. Staff is requesting direction from the g-DA as to
whether or not it is interested in pursuing a rehabilitation project at this site in
cooperation with the new owner. If the £DA determines to proceed, staff would
like authorization to meet with the property owner to determine the necessary
improvements, and approach the owner of the adjacent building to inquire of their
participation in the project.
President Enck questioned the fmancial investmen~ and whether redevelopment
should be explored rather than rehabilitation of the property.
Mr. McDonald reiterated that the Comprehensive Plan Update calls for rehab or
redevelopment of this area.
Mr. McDonald suggested obtaining a fin~n,~al analysis similar to the one recently
prepared for Regent Apartments.
Councilmember Cassen pointed out that the City has received numerous complaints
regarding this property m the past.
The EDA was receptive to exploration of all options, and directed staff to contact
the property owner to discuss redevelopment or rehabilitation options.
Motion was made by Commi,sioner Collier, seconded by Commissioner Cassen,
to adjourn the meeting. All present voted in favor. Motion carried. The New
Hope EDA adjourned at 8:42 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

Dear Mr. McDonald,
I am the owner ofa fourplex apartment building located at 8113 Bass Lake Road in New
Hope. You may already be familiar with this property (the eyesore it is). I plan on
making significant improvements and want to make it among the best rental properties in
New Hope.
Among the improvements will be a new roof, rain gutters, windows, exterior doors, and
paint inside and out. In addition, the lower apartments will likely need to be drain tiled (I
am currently attempting to correct the grade, but if this is not successful in stopping the
water problem, drain tile is the nex~ step). Finally, the parking area will need to be
resurfaced and the area relandscaped.
While I am anxious to complete these improvements, my funds are quite limited. I am
very interested in any financial assistance the City of New Hope may have available. I
am having the roof and windows estimated, and will forward these as you request. I
(roughly) estimate the entire project at somewhere near fifteen thousand dollars.
I appreciate your help and look forward to hearing fi.om you soon. You may call me at
my daytime (work) phone, (612) 348-2156, or you may leave a message at (651) 777-
7490.

Dear Kirk:
Thank you for agreeing to meet with us on March 15 to discuss the possibility of LivingWorks Ventures
establishing a second lodge in New Hope for individuals with disabilities. As you know, we already have a
$120,000 commitment from MHFA for this project, and are submitting funding proposals to the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Affordable Housing Program and the Hennepin County HOME program
later this month. We also intend to seek funding from the HUD MeKinney program, the McKnight
Foundation, and other local foundations that have an interest in housing and employment for people with
disabilities.
Items we would be interested in discussing with you at our meeting on the 15t~ include:
1. What is the status of the City of New Hope's plans to purchase the Bass Lake Road properties we have
discussed? What is the expected timeline for purchase to be completed?
At what point might the City of New Hope be interested in entering into a redevelopment contract with
LivingWorks for the Bass Lake Road property? What preliminary steps need to be made before this
could happen - and how long would you expect those steps to take?
Would the City of New Hope be willing to sign a statement to the effect that the property is not
viable and cannot be rehabilitated? If so, could we submit your signed statement to AHP and HOME to
support our request for new construction dollars (rather than rehab)?
What kinds of assistance might the City of New Hope be able to provide to LivingWorks in relation to
preparing the site for our propose use? Any or all of the following would essentially be "gifts in kind" that
would facilitate LivingWork's ability to carry out the project. Your assistance would also demonstrate a level
of local commitment that could enhance the credibility of LivingWorks in the eyes of potential funders. Areas
in which we would especially value your assistance are: Environmental assessment of the property (Phase I)
Clean-up and/or abatement of any pollution found in the Phase I
· Relocation of existing tenants
· Demolition of existing structures
Soil testing and, if necessary correction.
· CDBG assistance on the new project
