PARR BOARD MEETING FEBRUARY 3, 1992 before this subdivision (Quail Ridge) comes back to the park board for further discussion. Dan Boxrud, Consulting Engineer, and Linda Elliott met with Marty Asleson at the subdivision site a couple of weeks ago. Marty Asleson reports that he discussed the problem of crime regarding trails nearby homes, with people from Shoreview and Andover, and comments here were positive. This concern was a topic of discussion at the last meeting. Bill Nissen asked if anyone had contacted Blaine regarding this. Marty Asleson will call them and follow up on it. John Baumann suggested talking to some homeowners who have similar trails nearby them to get another perspective. Shores of Marshan Lake Development - Marty Asleson prefaced this agenda item with an explanation of how the Park Board came to be interested in the potential purchase of buildings located on the proposed dedicated park land in the Shores of Marshan Lake development. He handed out information with purchase prices of the two buildings, and a copy of a written offer to sell the buildings from Mr. Ernie Zelinka of The Professionals, Inc. (A copy of the offer is attached at the back of these minutes. ) These buildings are owned by Mr. Bob Yak of Bastien Products. There are two buildings being offered for sale, one is a 26' x 80' steel pole barn for $2,750, the other is a 28' x 64 ' wood frame building with 10' side walls, well and septic system for $13 , 000. 00. Mr. Asleson explained that the retail building is a fairly new structure and the Anoka County Assessor has appraised it at $10. 00 per square foot, the assessed value is $14 , 000 .00. This building is completely unfinished inside, no insulation, but it is wired. He would recommend that the park board buy this building. The utility building is not a real good buy at $2700. Also it would be costly to take the utility building down and move it. After discussion, all of the members in attendance felt that the purchase of the retail building at the cost of $13 , 000 is a reasonable price. Bill Nissen commented that this is a real quality looking building and it has great potential. Mr. Nissen asked if it appears that there will be any problems with this new subdivision. Don Volk noted there are a couple of snags as with any new development, but nothing unusual at this point. MOTION: Bill Nissen made a motion to pursue the $13000. 00 asking price and the terms of the selling agreement. It was seconded by John Baumann. All were in favor. Motion passed.
