RE: Consider Offers to Purchase 3100 Country Drive -- Closed Session MAYOR John Kers COUNCIL Rick Montour Michael McGraw Tom Tischer Christian Torkelson ADMINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson Pursuant to Council direction, staff distributed a property information packet to those people who expressed interest in the former Public Works building located at 3100 Country Drive. Based on this solicitation, three offers were received. Staff is proposing to present these offers at a closed session to be convened at the end of our August 26th meeting at which time you can consider the offers and provide direction for the preparation of a purchase agreement. We can close the meeting to consider offers for the sale of real property pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 13D.05; Subdivision 3,c (3). Before closing the Meeting, the council must state on the record the specific grounds for closing the meeting, describe the subject to be discussed, and identify the particular property that is the subject of the meeting. The meeting must be tape- recorded and the property must be identified on the recording. The recording must be preserved for eight years, and must be made available to the public after all property discussed at the meeting has been purchased or sold or after the public body has abandoned the purchase or sale. A list of councilmrnbers and all other persons present at the closed meeting must be made available to the public after the closed meeting. The actual purchase or sale of the property must be approved at an open meeting, and the purchase or sale price is public data. The offers are considered confidential data at this point and 1 will distribute them to you under separate cover, To maintain the integrity of the process, this information should not be disclosed to others until a transaction is consummated.
