All present voted in favor. Motion carried. IMP. PROJECT 523 President Erickson introduced for discussion Item 4, Discussion Regarding Item 4 Letter of Intent Submitted by EVEANN Limited Partnership for Champion Auto Store on City-owned Parcel at 42nd and Nevada Avenues (Improvement Project No. 523). President Erickson pointed out the EDA's previous decision to discourage additional auto-oriented businesses along the 42nd Avenue corridor. Commissioner Norby inquired that the City should encourage expansion of existing businesses. She asked whether a staff member spoke to a representative of Champion Auto. Mr. Donahue replied the written correspondence was the only form of communication to date. He stated their proposal is asking the City to finance $190,000 of $200,000. Commissioner Enck commented that Champion Auto has the capacity to expand its existing facility, and if they did purchase the city-owned property it appears unlikely that they would utilize the entire parcel. Commissioner Norby expressed the need for the EDA to review its financial assistance/participation guidelines for development requests. It was agreed to discuss this at a future work session. Mr. Donahue asked the Council if it wishes to continue its policy of not considering auto-oriented uses for this property. At this time the Council chose to continue with this policy and give consideration to a proposal submitted by Gill Brothers Funeral Chapels, Inc. IMP. PROJECT 523 President Erickson introduced for discussion Item 5, Discussion Regarding Item 5 Purchase Agreement Submitted by Gill Brothers Funeral Chapels, Inc. for City-owned Parcel at 42nd and Nevada Avenues (Improvement Project No. 523). Mr. Donahue stated the Gill Bros. offer is for $200,000 and the request before the City is for a Iow interest loan. New Hope EDA June 26, 1995 Page 1 President Erickson felt a funeral chapel would fit well in the location and noted that these businesses typically have beautiful settings (structure, landscaping, etc). President Erickson recommended that staff meet with Gill Brothers and have them present a concrete financial offer, site plan, landscaping, traffic plan, etc. at a future meeting. Commissioner Enck questioned representatives of Gill Brothers Funeral Chapels as to how they would propose the traffic pattern if the County denies direct access to 42nd Avenue. Mr. Daniel McGraw, President of Gill Brothers Funeral Chapels was recognized. He introduced Norm Cole, an architect of Miller Construction, who is available to answer technical questions. Mr. McGraw stated due to the concrete median, direct access to 42nd Avenue would serve westbound traffic only. He stated the traffic light on 42nd and Nevada provides excellent access and he is willing to work with the City and Hennepin County. Mr. McGraw commented that if the EDA is interested in the proposal he will proceed with preparation of site plans. He noted this development would have a tax value of approximately $1,000,000. Mr. Sondrall, City Attorney, reminded the EDA that Oregon Estates has a license agreement with the City which allows a directional sign on the southeast corner of the property. Mr. McGraw did not believe the sign would create any problem as it would be near the funeral chapel's parking lot. IMP.

IN THE AMOUNT OF $9,500 At the June 12th EDA meeting the EDA discussed a proposal from Northwest Associated Consultants, Inc. (requested by City staff) to conduct a Market Study for the Winnetka Shopping Center in the amount of $9,500. The study would have a specific focus on the vacant Super Valu site and is intended to provide an objective analysis of area retail market conditions, which could serve as the basis for formulating economic development strategies for the promotion and improvement of Winnetka Shopping Center. The study would be subdivided into the following sections. 1. Delineate and Describe Areas of Influence 2. Interview Shopping Center Property Managers for New Hope's Six Major Shopping Centers 3. Site Evaluation of Winnetka Center 4. Market Analysis and Findings The EDA tabled discussion on this issue at the June 12th meeting. While several EDA members were supportive of the study, the general consensus was that the City should not fund the entire study. The EDA directed staff to contact Winnetka Associates to determine if they would be willing to split the cost of the study on a 50/50 basis. Staff sent the enclosed letter and a copy of the Market Study proposal to Building Management Inc., managers for the center. They have responded in the affirmative, are very interested in the study being completed, and the City has received a check from Building Management, Inc. in the amount of $4,750 (one-half of the cost of the study). Staff recommends approval of a motion approving the Market Study for Winnetka Shopping Center, with the City and Winnetka Associates/Building Management, Inc. sharing costs on a 50/50 basis. '- a 'J U Review: Administration: Finance: RFA-O01 ~ June 19, 1995 Ms. Lawana Varajon, Operations Manager Building Management, Inc. 5353 Wayzata Boulevard, Ste. 210 Minneapolis, MN 55416 Subject: Market Study Proposal for Winnetka Center/Vacant Super Valu Site Dear Ms. Varajon: As you are aware, the New Hope City Council and staff are extremely interested in maintaining the Winnetka Shopping Center as a viable, active retail center in the City. With the recent departure of the Super Valu Supermarket, the Winnetka Center is left with a significant vacancy. This vacancy prompted the City Council, in part, to undertake the current "Shop New Hope" promotion, which has been very successful to date. The City has committed approximately $35,000 for this campaign to make New Hope residents aware of retail shopping opportunities in the City and to assist our retail business centers in maintaining their economic vitality. In light of the City Council's concern for the retail environment, and particularly their concern for the vacant space at the Super Valu site, the City has requested a market study proposal and cost estimate from the City's Planning Consultant. The enclosed proposal from Northwest Associated Consultants, was considered by the New Hope Economic Development Authority at their June 12th meeting. The study would focus on how the City, in conjunction with your firm, could promote the reuse of this large retail space. The market study would also provide an objective analysis of area retail market conditions which could serve as the basis for tbrmulating economic development strategies for the promotion and improvement of the entire Winnetka Shopping Center. The City desires to be pro-active in assisting you in finding a suitable tenant to make use of this space, as well as developing long-term strategies to maintain/improve the market conditions at Winnetka Center. - The Economic Development Authority is willing to split the cost of the enclosed market study proposal with the owners/managers of Winnetka Center on a 50/50 basis so that we may act in a partnership to address the concern outlined in this letter and the attached report. Please review the enclosed proposal and contact me (531-5112) or my assistant, Kirk McDonald (531-5119), so that we can schedule a meeting in the near future to discuss this market analysis for Winnetka Center.

M A R K E T R E S E A R C H 8 June 1995 Mr. Dan Donahue City Manager City Administrative Offices 4401 Xylon Avenue No. New Hope, MN 55428 RE: New Hope Market Analysis FILE NO: 802 Dear Mr. Donahue: This letter will serve to document our proposal to assist the City of New Hope with the preparation of a Market Study for the City Center area with a specific focus on the Winnetka Shopping Center. With the recent departure of the Super Value Supermarket, the Winnetka Center is left with a significant vacancy. Debate has occurred as to how the City should promote the reuse of this large retail space. Should another grocery store be pursued, or should other types of retail businesses be explored? The Market Study is intended to provide an objective analysis of area retail market conditions which will serve as the basis for formulating economic development strategies for the promotion and improvement of the Winnetka Shopping Center. NAC has served New Hope in the preparation of community market studies in 1985 and 1989. These past market studies have proved to be accurate and insightful in assisting New Hope in identifying available retail market opportunities. In accordance with the fmdings of the 1985 market study, the New Hope Mall was purchased and redeveloped using a large recreational/entertainment use and sit down restaurant as major anchors. While the New Hope City Center contains a vacancy, the overall shopping center displays a new vitality. The 1989 market study identified a market demand for automotive supply and service retailers and freestanding specialty type retailers. Consistent with these findings, an automotive tire business became a major anchor tenant for the Winnetlm Commons Shopping Center. A freestanding Army surplus retailer is now located at the comer of 42nd and Nevada. 5775 Wayzata Blvd.-Suite 555 .St. Louis Park, MN 55416. (612) 595-9636.Fax. 595-9837 Mr. Dan Donahue Page Two These past studies will be of substantial help in tracing market trends and conditions. The availability of these reports provides format and historical data that will be used to reduce project costs and is reflected in our budget estimate. To the extent possible, we will utilize past studies, however, all background information must be updated to reflect the current demographic and market conditions existing in New Hope and its extended trade area. The Market Study will provide a relatively objective evaluation of the community. The basis for conclusions will include statistical calculations based on population, income, shopping and spending habits, and allocation of developed space. The Market Study will also involve interviews with the property managers of New Hope's shopping centers to provide input from the affected commercial properties. Through this process, policy and philosophic bias is as a consequence minimized. The following outlines our study approach and allocation of costs: I. Delineate and Describe Area of Influence Assemble and update background data Inventory local and competitive retail locations Describe historic growth trends Estimate current levels of study area demand Estimate local and trade area spending trends Determine transportation patterns and traffic volumes Describe historic retail sales trends Estimated Cost ............................................................... $3,500.00 II. Interview Shopping Center Property Managers for New Hope's Six Major Shopping Centers Estimated Cost ............................................................... $1,200.00 Mr. Dan Donahue Page Three Site Evaluation of Winnetka Center Identify the strengths and weaknesses of the Winnetka Center as a retail location. Estimated Cost ............................................................... $ 600.00 IV.Market Analysis and Findings Delineate market areas Describe historic market trends and changing conditions Estimate current market demands Project future market demands Summarize f'mdings and retail options for the City Estimated Cost ............................................................... $3,000.00 V. Administration/Coordination/Production Startup meeting with staff to outline study objectives Interview review meeting Report production, graphics, copying, assembly (10 copies of final report) Secretarial Estimated Cost ............................................................... $1,200.00 TOTAL PROJECT COST ................................................. $9,500.00 Public presentation would be conducted under the present contract for public meetings, and therefore due to the uncertainty as to the number, would be an extra cost. The technical aspect and assembly of the project report would be completed within a maximum of 90 days from the date the City notifies NAC of authorization to proceed. Mr. Dan Donahue Page Four Alan R. Brixius, Vice President of NAC would supervise the project, plus be responsible for direct client contact and presentations. Daniel Wilson, an Associate, will participate in the project providing technical expertise in the Market Study. NAC would also utilize members of its support staff in data assembly and inventory work. Resumes of the NAC staff are attached for your review. Hopefully this letter responds to your request for a Market Study. Should there be any need for clarification, do not hesitate to contact me. Additionally, I am available for a personal discussion with the City Council, should this be desired. Thank you for your consideration on this matter. We look forward to working with you, the City Council and Planning Commission on this project. Sincerely, NORTHWEST ASSOCIATED CONSULTANTS, INC. Alan R.

The Economic Development Authority in and for the City of New Hope is interested in acquiring the property at 5559 Sumter Avenue North in the City of New Hope. It is our understanding that the decedent, Frances Louise Laliberte, was the fee owner of said property. In compliance with the Federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Rea] Property Acquisition Policies Act, please consider this letter our summary statement of the basis for our offer required by Section 24.102 of the Rules and Regulations to implement said Act found at 49 CFR Subtitle A (10-1-94 Edition). Basically, it is the Economic Development Authority's position that $62,000 represents just compensation for the property. This is based on an appraisal prepared by Ron Lachenmayer of BCL Appraisals, Inc., a copy of which is enclosed for your review. Naturally, this offer for the purchase of 5559 Sumter Avenue North is for a fee simple interest in the property subject to no tenant interest or otherwise. This offer includes acquisition of all buildings and improvements to the property with the exception of the reclamation rights of seller identified in the Addendum to Purchase Agreement. Mr. Chad Henderson July 6, 1995 Page 2 At the June 28th meeting with the decedent's heirs we discussed our appraisal for $62,000. The siding issue (steel v. aluminum) does not affect the appraised value according to our building official and the appraiser. Also, the EDA will assume payment for the pending $2,470 street assessment. We will also be incurring an expense to cap and seal the we]l on the property. As a result, we believe the $62,000 offer represents fair compensation for the property. The EDA will also pay for all incidental expenses to transfer title to the property as required by Section 24.106 of the Rules' and Regulations including recording fees, abstract extension costs and the St ate Deed Tax. We also intend to have the tenants of the property contacted by a relocation consulting firm to determine if they are entitled to any payment under the Act resulting from their displacement from the property by the EDA's acquisition of the property. The EDA would like to consider this Purchase Agreement at its July 24, 1995 meeting. Therefore, a response to this Purchase Agreement by your client by July 19, 1995 would be much appreciated.

On May 8th Council directed staff to pursue appraisals for two properties including 5559 Sumter Avenue North and 7621 Bass Lake Road. During the June 12th EDA meeting, staff was authorized to obtain appraisals for two additional properties located at 7609 Bass Lake Road and 5520 Sumter Avenue North. Also during this meeting, the EDA authorized staff to proceed to negotiate with the property owners at 5559 Sumter Avenue North and 7621 Bass Lake Road for purchase of their property. During initial discussions with the owners of 5559 Sumter Avenue North and 7621 Bass Lake Road, staff felt that a relocation specialist was necessary to help in the purchase of the properties and the City Attorney confirmed this. This is because anytime a public agency wants to purchase private property they must follow guideline outlined in the Uniform Relocation Act. The City received bids for relocation services from three businesses: Conworth, Inc. $65/hour not to exceed $1,625 per home. Evergreen Land Services Co. $55/hour. Proposal stated that relocation work usually takes between 20 to 25 hours per home. Professional Redevelopment Resources, Inc. $65/hour. Proposal also listed a fixed price of $1,050 per homeowner. Based on the fact that Evergreen Land Services has the lowest hourly rate, a comparable fixed rate, and was highly recommended by Brooklyn Center, Golden Valley and Hennepin County, staff recommends that the EDA select Evergreen Land Services for relocation services in the Bass Lake Road housing redevelopment area. Staff recommends approval of a motion awarding the work to Evergreen Land Services Co. -//- ~_ ~t --- Review: Administration: Finance: RFA-O01 ~ EVERGREEN LAND SERVICES CO. 6200 SHINGLE CREEK PARKWAY, b,jI. u.. 415 · BROOKL',/N CENTER.

I would welcome the opportunity to work with you and the other City staff involved in this Project. This letter will provide you with information on my background and experience, information on Evergreen Land Services Company and its philosophy, a list of some of the agencies with whom I have personally worked and who know me professionally, and our fee schedule for relocation consulting services. Please feel flee to contact any or all of the referrals as you wish. Regarding my background, I have worked directly in the relocation field for over ten years, and previously worked for four years in the real estate appraisal field. My experience is with a local public agency as well as with two private consulting firms. I have supervised public project relocation activities and relocation staff counselors, and have myself provided relocation counseling directly to hundreds of residential and business displacees. Enclosed with this letter is my resume for your review. Evergreen Land Services Company was founded in 1972 and is the oldest company in Minnesota specializing in land acquisition for public redevelopment and right of way projects. The firm has long had an interest in being able to provide existing and potential clients with relocation services along with its other specialties of title search, appraisal, review appraisal, negotiation, project supervision, and full "mm-key" services. Therefore, early in 1995, I was hired as Evergreen's Relocation Specialist and Director of its newly established relocation division. It is our belief that success is derived from good communication and a positive working relationship with our clients and with the owners and occupants of the project area. Evergreen has a staff of employees who are qualified professionals with diverse experience in acquisition and relocation assistance activities for public projects. This experience insures the quality and cost effective implementation of the services provided by our consultants. Evergreen's goals are Agency satisfaction with our services, meeting the project's timetable and budgetary needs as best as is possible, and fair and respectful treatment of owners and occupants of a project area.

Initial meeting with City staff to discuss project coordination and procedures. 2. Meetings with each owner/occupant to review and explain relocation benefits, documentation requirements, and the process applicable to each of their situations. 3.

This letter is our response to your request for proposal, and will also provide you with some information on our firm.

The firm's staff consists of four consultants with over 35 years of combined experience in residential and business relocation and related real estate activities. Our services concentrate on the requirements of the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act and Minnesota Statute 117.52.

First, we consider it a privilege to make a proposal to the City. We see this particular job as a significant job and one that deserves the quality serVices that we provide. Secondly, we want to make it clear our proposal was for a fixed price contract. This is what all our clients desire. We provide an homi.~ r,~ce only for work done outside the scope of our proposal. Generally, our competition does the same, therefore we believe it is fair to base selection on what the fixed price contract will be plus qualifications. I can assure you that if we change an hourly rate for all relocation work our overall project fees would be much higher than a per unit fixed price contract. All qualifications being equal, the fixed price approach will give the City the best bang for its buck. At this time, I request you reconsider our proposal as compared to our competitors per unit costs. If we can clarify anything in our proposal please let me know. Thank you again for your consideration. Please call me to discuss. / ~4~. ~chn: 'itker 1~'., e~sident ce: Dan Donahue, City Manager Kirk McDonald, Management Assistent/Community Development Coordinator Steve Sondrall, City Attorney Improvement Project #541 EDA REQUEST FOR ACTION Originating Department Approved for Agenda Agenda Section City Manager EDA ~,..~24-95 Sarah Bellebuil ~ i Item No. / By: Administrative Analyst By: /// , 8 MOTION APPROVING QUOTE FROM W~OBLESKI'S LAWN SERVICE IN THE AMOUNT OF 8,300.60 FOR THE LANDSCAPING FOR THE PROPERTY AT 7901/7909 51ST AVENUE NORTH (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #505) The City of New Hope purchased the property located at 7901/7909 51st Avenue North from HUD on February 7, 1994.

EXCLUSIVE NEGOTIATIONS AGREEMENT AND '"AUTHORIZING THE PRESIDENT AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO SIGN (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 523) At the June 26th EDA meeting, the EDA discussed a Purchase Agreement submitted by Gill Brothers Funeral Chapel, Inc. for the City-owned property at 42nd and Nevada Avenues. The EDA indicated an interest in the proposal and directed staff to meet with Gill Brothers to better define the plans and their request for City financial assistance. The staff and City Attorney met with representatives of Gill Brothers and Miller Funeral Home Design/Construction on July 11th. The initial site plan showed the building located to the far east side of the property, with parking on the remainder of the parcel and three curb cuts onto 42nd Avenue. The prospective purchasers had contacted Hennepin County about the curb cut issue and were informed that the County will only allow one curb cut on 42nd Avenue. Therefore, Gill Brothers indicated that they would need to revise the site plan and move the structure closer to the center of the property. This will necessitate the moving of the existing 36 inch RCP storm sewer crossing to the middle of the site. It was determined that the following steps would be taken to better define their proposal/request: 1. City Engineer would provide Miller Funeral Home Design/Construction with cost estimates regarding the cost to relocate the storm sewer. 2. Gill/Miller would incorporate these costs into their total project costs. 3. Once total project costs are known, Gill will make a formal request to the City for financial assistance and present revised site plans. Total project costs and revised site plans will not be ready until the end of July and it is anticipated that they will make a formal presentation/request to the EDA in August. In an effort to continue negotiations/cooperation on this proposed development, the City Attorney recommended that Gill Brothers and the City execute the enclosed Exclusive Negotiations Agreement regarding the property. The Agreement provides Gill Brothers Funeral Chapel, Inc. the exclusive right! to negotiate a Development Contract with the City for the property over the next 90 days. The Agreement lays out the rights and obligations of each party during the 90-day period and states that if an agreement cannot be reached, the obligations of each party under the Agreement will terminate and neither party shall incur any obligation to the other in such event. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. ! Review: Administration: Finance: RFA-O01 ~ EDA RESOLUTION 95- RESOLUTION APPROVING GILL BROTHERS FUNERAL CHAPEL, INC.
