One of the 1995 goals of the City Council and staff is to improve communication/coordination between the City and the retail/commercial businesses in New Hope. Since the beginning of the year the Mayor and City Manager have contacted or met with the majority of owners/managers of New Hope's commercial centers and major retailers including Midland Center, Poste Haste Center, Winnetka Center, Winnetka Commons, K-Mart and New Hope Mall. The purpose of these meetings has been to inquire how the City can better assist the business/retail environment at these locations and to find out if the shopping centers and major businesses would cooperate with the City in a "Shop New Hope" promotion. It is anticipated that such a promotion would be jointly funded by the City and businesses and would educate residents about shopping opportunities in New Hope. Such a promotion could be coordinated in conjunction with Duk Duk Daze. The majority of shopping center/retail business owners and/or managers indicated that they would be very supportive of the program and would participate. Staff also has met with Key Group Advertising, Inc., the promotion company utilized by Kraus- Anderson, to discuss the City-wide retail promotion idea. Key Group indicated that they thought the idea was very progressive and forward thinking and that they would like to work with the City on the development of these ideas in the coming months. Key Group could assist in the development of a budget for the promotion and would assist in coordinating group meetings between the retailers and MOTION~ SECOND BY Review: .Administration: Finance: RFA-O01 Request for Action Page 2 3-13-95 the City to develop the program. Several of the ideas discussed to date for the promotion include possible discounts for purchases made at local businesses or the development of a map/directory of New Hope businesses. Staff is seeking direction from the EDA on this idea. Staff is proposing that the City's contribution for the program for this year could total approximately $25,000 and would be derived from the 1995 EDA budget ($14,000) and from surplus EDA funds ($11,000). The City's contribution would be made as a match from local retailers. If the EDA is supportive of the concept, staff would proceed to organize a meeting with all commercial/retail businesses in the City to develop program ideas and work with a consultant on coordinating the program. NEW HOPE SHOPPING CENTERS Midland was built in three phases from 1961, 1965, and 1967. Originally, the anchors were a grocery store, drug store, and bank. New Hope Mall is located on the comer of 42nd and Winnetka. The original mall was constructed in 1965 with stores being accessed from the interior of the building. The original anchors were a Red Owl grocery store and a liquor store. After the grocery store and liquor store left, the owners of the mall tried to make New Hope Mall into an outlet mall. In 1985 US Swim & Fitness came to the City and stated that they were interested in opening a gym if the mall was expanded and renovated. The mall was gutted and additions were built to house the US Swim & Fitness and Applebee's Restaurant. K-Mart was built in 1971. The site originally continued as a K-mart and a 21,000 square foot Elm Farm grocery store. The grocery store closed and was replaced with the Old America Store. Post haste is located on Highway 169 and 36th Avenue North. R was built by Jerome Showalter in 1971. Mr. Showalter still owns the property. The anchors were Ole Piper Inn and a PDQ store ~,hieh have since closed. A Bridgeman's Restaurant is considering moving into the old Ole Piper Inn site. Winnetka Center Winnetka Center was built in 1979 directly north of the New Hope Mall. The original anchors were Marquette Bank, Lunds Grocery Store, and a hardware store. Since then the hardware store has closed and the Lunds was replaced by a SuperValue. The SuperValue will be closing shortly. Winngtka Commons . Winnetka Commons is located on the comer of 36th and Winnetka. The site was originally the home of the Holy Nativity Church. In the late 1980's the Church expressed an interest in expanding their facilities to accommodate their growing congregation. A group of developers, Winnetka Assoc~ were interested in developing the church site for commercial purposes. In addition, th~ City was interested in helping the church settle at 3900 Quebec which was the location of s~ old NSP tank farm. The City was interested in having the tank farm removed and rezoning th~ ama for more compatible uses. NSP removed the tank farm, the site was rezoned, and Holy Nativity Churoh built an atWa~ve new church on the site. The old church was tom down and Winnetka Commons was built in 1990. In addition, drainage and ponding issues were resolved on the site during the development of Wlnnotka Commons.
