SMI-IS and its funding partners, the Minnesota Department of Human Services (MN DHS) and Ramsey <br />County Human Services, believe it is time to transition the Community Foundations program to an <br />updated facility and new location that would better meet the needs of the clients and the community. The <br />current facility is an adaptive reuse of a hundred year old building and is poorly suited to its current use <br />over the long term. The goal is to convert the "Ethan Allen" retail store, an open warehouse type <br />structure into a facility specifically redesigned for use as a residential treatment facility. The rehabbed <br />facility will include: <br />e 16 single room dwellings for clients requiring continuous care and supervision. Each dwelling <br />space includes a bathroom in addition to a studio -style sleeping room. <br />® Two lounges and private secure patio to encourage clients to participate in group activities. <br />o A licensed commercial kitchen with a communal dining area to accommodate up to 20 people. <br />® 8 -10 offices for professional staff to alternately be used as offices and counseling spaces for <br />licensed mental health professionals <br />® Multiple conference rooms for meetings and group therapy trainings. <br />® Interior common spaces that can be observed from the Business /Reception Office, Conference <br />Room and one private office. Access to the building is controlled and supervised by the <br />Business /Reception Office. <br />P Native exterior landscaping and parking lot to accommodate 16 -18 vehicles <br />o Secure back entrance and loading dock accessible to commercial kitchen <br />It is also believed the relatively isolated suburban location will provide residents safer and more dignified <br />residential treatment option that is better suited for treatment, stabilization, recovery and transition. <br />Existing Properties with debt that will be refinanced as part of the $4,709,000 total bank - qualified tax - <br />exempt transaction: <br />1 1100 161st Lane NW, Andover <br />2 8786 Austin Street NE, Blaine <br />3 12471 Larch, Coon Rapids <br />4 370 Ware, Lino Lakes <br />5 3066 Arcade Street, Little Canada <br />6 2370 Kessin, Mendota Heights <br />7 2438 Homestead, Oakdale, <br />8 2305 14th Ave, North St. Paul <br />9 425 18th Ave S, South St. Paul <br />10 1714 Nebraska, St. Paul <br />11 1880 Wilson, St. Paul <br />12 1435 Grand Ave, St Paul <br />13 1276 Mayhill Rd, Maplewood <br />14 2080 Highwood, Maplewood <br />15 2088 Bradley, Maplewood <br />16 1111 Viking Dr. E, Maplewood <br />17 5934 Alameda, Shoreview <br />3 <br />
