DISCUSSION REGARDING CITY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR PROPOSED
DEVELOPMENTS AT WINNETKA CENTER SHOPPING CENTER
Developer Mark Senn of Marcus Corporation (Commercial/Industrial Real Estate) has met with City
staff to discuss two proposals for development at Winnetka Center Shopping Center at 45th and
Winnetka Avenues. He has prepared the enclosed correspondence and will be in attendance at the
EDA meeting to review the proposals with the EDA and to request some financial assistance from the
City.
The two proposed developments include:
1. Interior Remodeling of Super Value Store
A company known as Data Recognition, which designs custom surveys and testing for students,
is interested in a long-term (10 year) lease of the Super Value space and purchase of the
building after the lease expires. Data Recognition employs 250-400 college educated
employees and has a $2.1 million payroll. The company's headquarters are in Minnetonka.
This site is desirable to them because of the bus/transit services available. If they leased the
site approximately $600,000 worth of interior remodeling would be completed. Although this
is not a retail establishment, an office use such as this could revitalize the other businesses in
the center with the large number of employees. Office uses are a permitted use in the B-4
Zoning District.

2. Construction of a D Queen on the corner of 45th & Winnetka'
The developer is also interested in splitting off the comer parcel and constructing Braizer (full-
operation) Dairy Queen with a drive-thru window. This would be a satellite convenience food
facility similar to McDonalds. The Dairy Queen with drive-thru would require a
subdivision/amendment to the Shopping Center PUD conditional use permit for a drive-thru
window.
The property is located in an area where tax increment financing funds could be utilized and the
developer will be inquiring about the EDA's interest in these projects and the potential for City
financial assistance.
Excerpts from the recently completed Market Study are also attached for your reference.

De~r Kirk:
We represent a company, Data Recognition Corporation, which is actively involved in relocating ·
and expanding a division of their company. Data Recognition is in the business of customized
testing and nationally services states, school districts, corporations and others requiring or
desiring customized tests for measurement or assessment purposes.
We are currently involved in negotiating with Super Valu for the 40,000 square feet of vacant
space at 45th and W'mnetka. Prior to finalizing an arrangement with Super Valu we have met
now and explored the prospect of any city economic development assistance. The 45th and
W'mnetka site, while bein~ our most desired site, quite simply doesnt compete with other
locations economically. For this reason we have broached a discussion over potential dty
economic development assistance.
Data Recognition will initially employ approximately 250 people and intends to employ up to 450
if enough skilled employees can be found. Data Recognition is quite excited about the New Hope
location given its easy mass transit access, goods and services provided in the area, as well as its
population density and potential employee base.
To help fall the gap created between this site and other available spaces we are requesting that the
City and its Economic Development Authority (EDA) authorize staff to explore, negotiate and
recommend a finandal package involving some city assistance.
We also represent a Dairy Queen franchise that is interested in adding a DQ/Brazier unit on an
outlot (corner of4$th & Winnetka). At the ~anchisee's request we would also like to discuss the
potential of using TIF to help defray parts of the cost of development.
Both of these deals involving separate clients need to stand independently, however, as we have
undertaken discussions with the city involving potential assistance it only makes sense to discuss
both at the same time. I have attached a building layout for the former grocery store space and I
have attached some basic information on the Dairy Queen unit.

EXISTING CONDITIONS
The Winnetka Center is located west of Winnetka Avenue between 45th and 42nd
Avenues. The center holds + 92,400 square feet of leasable space, 42,200 square feet,
or 46 percent, of which is currently available. It should be noted that the vast majority of
vacant space (_+ 36,000) square feet was held by a single use (former grocery store). The
mix of current tenants is eclectic and does not provide for any business interchange or
accumulative attraction to draw consumers to the Center. The tenant mixture, both past
and present, combined different types of commercial businesses. While some consumer
interchange could be anticipated between the businesses, the majority of businesses in
the Center attract a distinct market which does not serve to complement other tenants. For
example, the Center's most prominate tenant, Marquette Bank is not retail oriented. The
current tenants are listed in the table below: "

'1 SITE CHARACTERISTICS
Location is the key to any successful business. Strengths and weaknesses of commercial
sites must be evaluated to assist in developing market strategies for each site. Site
location, accessibility, surrounding land uses, and physical barriers all influence the type,
size and impact ~ commercial uses. A summary of the strengths and weaknesses of the
Winnetka Center is provided below:
Strengths
· Located along Winnetka Avenue, the site lies adjacent to a major collector street.
Traffic volumes upon Winnetka Avenue directly east of the Winnetka Center are
approximately 14,000 trips Per day.
· The site has good visibility to southbound traffic on Winnetka Avenue.
· An ample supply of off-street parking exists upon the property.
· The existing commercial center is structurally sound and well maintained.
· The center lies adjacent to multiple family residential uses which contribute to its
customer base.
.
·The center has an efficient vehicular circulation system.
· The site is provided with a full range of municipal utilities.
· The site is serviced by three MCTO bus routes.
Weaknesses
· Duein large part to its setback, building configuuation and orientation, the center
has limited visibility to northbound traffic on Winnetka Avenue or 42nd Avenue.
· The center does not have a strong anchor retail ,tenant from which spinoff business
may result.
· The centers most visible tenant (Marquette Bank) is not retail oriented.
· From a design standpoint, the orientation of the center isolates the building from
adjacent commercial uses to the south.

I Site Issues Map 2
· The site is minimally landscaped. The lack of such landscaping, particularly in the
center's parking lot, results in a bleak, barren appearance.
· The center's identification sign is dated and does not promote a "vital" or "active"
retail experience.
· The center is an older architectural design which does not incorporate
contemporary design elements which draw attention to the center.
· The existing tenant mixture is eclectic and does not present any accumulative
attraction or business interchange advantages.
· · At peak traffic times, access to the center can be inconvenient as northbound t'r'affic
along Winnetka Avenue must make left turns to access the center.
· The center does not promote pedestrian traffic as it is setback a significant distance
from Winnetka Avenue. The existing site layout does not invite pedestrians from
adjacent sidewalk areas to the center across an exp. ansive parking lot.
· The center has an "over supply" of off-street parking. According to an APA
reference document entitled "Off-Street Parking Requirements", five parking spaces
for each 1,000 square feet of leasable area are recommended for shopping centers.
Utilizing this standard, an off-stri-et parking supply of 462 parking spaces would be
considered adequate. With a total supply of + 540 spaces, the center is in
significant excess of the off-street parking supply considered necessary to
accommodate the use.
As illustrated by the items above, the existing site layout and building design does not
promote convenience. A direct result of these problems is the center's vacancy rate and
less desirable tenant mixture.
NEW HOPE [V~ARKET STUDY NOVEMBER 1995
STUDY CONCLUSIONS
When New Hope's commercial retail areas were originally developed, they served a trade
area that included residential neighborhoods beyond its boundaries in Plymouth, Maple
Grove, and Brooklyn Center. The New Hope, commercial facilities competed and shared
the trade area witfl commercial shopping facilities in Golden Valley, Brooklyn Center and
Crystal. As New Hope and its surrounding communities have matured through the 1980s
Jl and 1990s, the following physical and demographic influences have reduced the City retail
trade area.
!1 Demographics
I Demographic and sales trends identified in earlier market studies in.1985 and 1987' have
continued through 1995. These trends indicate that New Hope's retail trade area
continues to be reduced.
I 1. As New Hope and its mature neighboring communities reached development
saturation, the population has declined and matured. This results in older, smaller
I households in immediate proximity to New Hope's commercial areas.
2. Between 1980 and 1990, New Hope's median age has increased and average
I household size declined. Tl~e number of residents over the age of 55 has
increased from 14 percent to 24 percent during this same period. These
demographic characteristics project a different consumer group than the young
families of the 1970s.
3. The emerging communities of Brooklyn Park, Maple Grove, and Plymouth which
I have land available for development display strong growth.
continue
to
The
demographic profile of these communities contrast with mature communities in that
they exhibit younger median age, larger household sizes, and greater household
income.
i 4. With the exception of Golden Valley at $46,212, the median income of New Hope
and the mature communities average $35,116. In contrast, the growing
communities to the north and west have mediah incomes that range from $40,018
I to $51,314.

Retail Space
Following the strong residential, the newer communities of Brooklyn Park, Maple Grove,
and Plymouth have experienced extraordinary commercial growth since 1985. During this
period, these three communities have added approximately 2.6 million square feet of retail
space. This corrrmercial growth is anticipated to continue with ongoing development in
Maple Grove at the 1-694/VVeaver Lake Road interchange and the Plymouth City Center
area at Vicksburg Avenue and Highway 55. Additionally, Golden Valley is undertaking
Crystal
is
undertaking a commercial redevelopment, at Bass Lake and West Broadway.
The introduction of new retail facilities in these surrounding communities reduces. New
Hope's retail drawing power. These new facilities offer new contemporary retail
opioortunities, a location convenient to major transportation routes, and residential growth
areas that were historically served by New Hope commercial facilities.
Most of New Hope's retail/shopping centers were developed in 1960 and 1970. In 1985,
the New Hope Mall underwent major redevelopment, changing the appearance of this
facility. However, other shopping centers such as Winnetka Center, Midland Shopping
Center, Poste Haste Center, and the K-Mart generally hold their original architectural form.
These centers do not present the fresh and exciting appearance of the newer
contemporary facilities being constructed. Steps are being taken by Midland Shopping
Center with regard to landscaping 'and site design in an effort to maintain a fresh
appearance.
Vacant retail in New Hope has increased from 5 in 1989 to over 20
space
percent
percent
in 1995.
Transportation
The transportation network has contributed to reducing New Hope's trade area. The major
highways and freeways (Highway 169, 1-694, and 1-494) serve a physical barrier that
diverts traffic by New Hope. The Winnetka Center's proximity one mile east of Highway
169 does not present a convenient shopping location of area commuter traffic.
Retail Sales
New Hope retail sales for 1986 through 1990 exhibit a decline,. 1992 sales figures
showed a jump in sales, while some increase was anticipated with the maturity of the
Winnetka Commons Shopping Center. The significance of the increase raises question
on accuracy of the reporting. Comparatively, New Hope ranks behind most of the other
study area communities in sales and per capita sales.

STRATEGIES FOR RETAIL
Market conditions indicate that New Hope market focus has changed from a regional to
community or neighborhood focus.
Shoppers Goods
Shoppers goods retailing has exhibited declining sales in areas of household appliances,
furniture, apparel. Only merchandise and automotive retailers
and
miscellaneous
exhibited growth. New commercial growt, h within the study area will make difficult for New
Hope commercial facilities to compete in the shopper good markets.
Shoppers goods retailing in' larger box stores which focus on a regional markets i's the
current retailing tren~l. These facilities attempt to locate on larger parcels in close
proximity to major highways. The Winnetka Center building manager's efforts to solicit
tenants for the vacated Super Valu space gain responses from the major box store
retailers (including Kohl's Department Store, Home Depot, Pet Food Warehouse, etc.) that
prefer location two miles west of Winnetka Center near the freeway.
Under these circumstances, the continued pursuit of shopper goods retailers will not. likely
be productive.
Convenience Goods
The market analysis suggests that within a declining trade area, New Hope retailers must
increasingly focus on community-wide and neighborhood markets. Local retailing should
be geared towards convenience goods and services that address the day-to-day needs
of New Hope's changing consumer profile. Winnetka Center already includes a number
of convenience goods retailers, including hardware, liquor and florist. Future marketing
and renovation should enhance these types of businesses by attracting complementary
business and making physical improvements to the building and site that presents an
image of convenience and vitality.
The Winnetka Center was originally constructed as a designation shopping center. Its
building design and site layout does not lend itself to a Convenience retail center. In giving
attention to convenience goals and services, the following changes are recommended.
These changes could involve the redevelopment of the site.
1. The total floor space of the Winnetka Center may be greater than needed for a
convenience shopping center.
2. The size of the tenant does not lend itself to being carved for smaller
larger
up
convenience businesses.
Nmw Homm MARK~:T STUOY NOV~rM~R ) gg5
29
3. The building location and orientation on the site causes it to be lost from view from
adjoining streets contributing to the perception that it is difficult to get to and
detracting from the center's identity.
4. The shopping center's architectural form has not changed dramatically from original
construction. A facelift or renovation to the building facade, perhaps adding some
vertical elements to the building's front elevation could change the appearance and
image of the Winnetka Center.
5. The large parking lot isolates the shopping center at the rear of the site. If the
shopping center is redeveloped, a new smaller retail facility in closer proximity to
Winnetka is suggested. If the existing center is retained, a satellite building should
be considered to give the site additional visibility and to enhance the 'City's.
shopping center image. A second-option would be to reduce the parking area and
expand the site's green space and landscape area to make the site more attractive
and inviting.
6. The parking lot layout moves the parking stalls away from the building.
Rearranging the parking to place parking closer to the business entrance
emphasizes consumer convenience.
7. The Winnetka Center offers no defined pedestrian connection between the building
and public sidewalks.
8. The Winnetka Shopping Center tenant mix is very eclectic. The consolidation of
complementary businesses would assist in promoting a higher degree of
accumulative attraction and business interchange. Marketing focus should be on
attracting complementary businesses.
While the loss-of the Super Valu supermarket is reflective of the trend toward larger
wholesale grocers, the site may offer some potential for a convenience grocery store at a
smaller scale than the previous Super Valu store. The nearest convenience food store is
located near the corner of 49th Street and Nevada Avenue. Other than this store, food
retailing in New Hope is limited to community gas stations.
The Winnetka Center's current lease with Super Varu presents an obstacle to any new
food store from entering the shopping center. Resolution of the lease issues must be
addressed with any treatment of the shopping center.
NEW HOF~E ~IARKET ~TUDY NOVENBER I ~g5
3O
Other Commercial Opportunities
Other commercial activities to investigate in the redevelopment, renovation, and marketing
of the Winnetka Center to include:
1. Entertainr~nt/Recreation: With the decline in traditional retail sales facilities, the
promotion of entertainment and recreational commercial use has worked with other
New Hope shopping centers. New Hope Center uses U.S. Swim and Fitness and
Blockbuster Video as major anchors. Midland Shopping Center has Cinema
Drafthouse Theater as a major tenant.
Currently Circus Pizza is a major tenant to the Winnetka Center. The promotion of
additional entertainment/recreation commercial facilities can be a significant
attraction to the shopping center that would enhance the Winnetka Center image.
2. Dining: Associated with the entertainment facilities opportunities may exist in
additional dining facilities. Fast food restaurants have dominated the City Center
area both as freestanding facilities and within the New Hope Center. These
existing fast food restaurants saturate the current market and have a business
interception advantage over the Winnetka Center.
Sit down restaurants with liquor offer some potential. If a dining facility is pursued
it must be a sit down restaurants offering a unique attractive image. The facility
must be freestanding away from the Winnetka Center to take advantage of the
visibility from both Winnetka Avenue and 42nd Avenue.
3. Automotive: Automotive goods and services have displayed sales growth in New
Hope since 1987. The introduction of automobile goods and service businesses
would likely require some redevelopment of the Winnetka Center building and site
layout. Historic sales trends suggest that this area retailing in New Hope has
remained steady.
4. With the changing retailing environment, consideration may be given to non-
retailing uses. Commercial office space may offer a workable option in conjunction
with the other retailing options.

RESOLUTION APPROVING PLAN$/ AND SPECIFICATIONS AND ORI~ERING
ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF SINGLE FAMILY HOME AT 6067
WEST BROADWAY (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 545)
At the April 22, City Council meeting, the City Council directed staff to work with the firm Planning
& Design, Inc., to develop plans for the proposed single family home to be located on the vacant City-
owned property at 6067 West Broadway.
Plans and specifications have now been prepared and the enclosed resolution approves the plans and
specifications and authorizes an advertisement for bids. Pending further input from staff or the EDA
on design changes or changes to the specifications, it is anticipated that bids will be opened Thursday,
July 18, and considered by the EDA on July 22, with construction to begin immediately.
The City of New Hope purchased the property at 6067 West Broadway from HUD, due to mortgage
foreclosure, in October, 1995, for $41,400. The site was originally inspected by Jean Coone, General
Inspector, and the staff at Project for Pride in Living. They recommended that it should be demolished
because of its deteriorated condition and numerous code violations. In response, the house was
demolished on June 12 - 14, by R.P. Excavating.
The project is being sponsored by the City in conjunction with the 5-City CO-OP Northwest
Community Revitalization Corporation and the Metropolitan Council. It is being funded, in part, with
Federal HOME program funds, and CDBG funds. CO-OP Northwest will provide a second mortgage
so that the house will be affordable to a person/family with low/moderate income. The City will
oversee the construction and upon completion the house will be sold to a qualified first-time home
buyer.

MOTION AUTHORIZING STAFF TO OBTAIN AN APPRAISAL FOR PROPERTY AT 5540
WINNETKA AVENUE NORTH
City staff have recently held discussions with the owners of SuperAmerica who are interested in
constructing a SuperAmerica convenience store at the comer of Winnetka Avenue North and Bass
Lake Road. During discussions, SuperAmerica stated that in order to build on the site, they would
require additional land located at 5540 Winnetka and 7809 Bass Lake Road.
SuperAmerica has asked the City if they would be willing to purchase the residential property at 5540
Winnetka to help facilitate the construction of a SuperAmerica. In response, an appraisal of 5540
Winnetka must be completed, If the City Council approves the appraisal, the owner of the property
will be contacted to determine if they are interested in selling their property and if they will allow an
appraisal of their property to be completed.
If the City decides to acquire the property, the following funds may be used: $84,000 in CDBG
acquisition/scattered site housing funds, EDA funds, and TIF funds, depending on the future use of
the site.
The 1995 assessed value is $91,000 ($20,500 land, 70,500 building).
Because the City will be contacting the owner of 5540 Winnetka to determine if they are interested
in selling their property rather than the owner contacting the City asking if the City is interested in
buying the house, the City Attorney suggests that the City use a relocation specialist to work with the
owner of 5540 Winnetka. Therefore, staff will be contacting Sandra Luegge, the Director of
Relocation for Evergreen Land Services, to determine if relocation benefits will be required in this
situation. Sandra Luegge advised staff about relocation benefits when the City was considering
redeveloping the Bass Lake Road/Sumter Avenue North neighborhood. If relocation benefits are

approving Tasks Unlimited as the owner and service provider for a special needs rental housing project
to be located in the City. Also at the May 28 EDA meeting, the EDA directed staff to develop a Letter
of Understanding with Tasks Unlimited which sets out the terms under which the EDA agrees to make
a loan to Tasks Unlimited, Inc., for the purchase of a housing unit in the City.
The loan amount provided by the City is for a $90,000 zero-interest, 30-year first mortgage. As stated
in the Letter of Agreement, the EDA funds are to be used specifically for the purchase of a property
in New Hope. In addition, NW CO-OP Community Revitalization Corporation has allocated $90,000
in 1995 HOME funds toward the project. The HOME funds will be a zero-interest second mortgage.
The HOME second mortgage funds will be used for the purchase of a property in New Hope and any
rehabilitation costs that may be required. In order for Tasks Unlimited to receive a loan through the
City,. the EDA will approve the site to be purchased and review any major rehabilitation work to be
completed at the site to insure its suitability.
In brief, the Letter of Agreement states that the property to be purchased will be a duplex, twin home,
or small multi-unit building that will house six to eight adults. Tasks Unlimited will be the owner of
the property and will provide support services to residents. The residents will be adult persons with
serious and persistent mental illness.
Staff recommends approval of a resolution approving the Letter of Understanding with Tasks Unlimited,
Inc., for a loan to purchase housing in the City of New Hope.
