• • • WS-1 WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT Work Session Item No. 1 Date: Council Work Session, Wednesday, Sept. 20, 2004 To: City Council From: Mary Divine Re: Legacy at Woods Edge You will find enclosed as Agenda Item 6C information for the public hearing on the Hartford Group application for public assistance. Steve Bubul from Kennedy & Graven is continuing to work on the Redevelopment Contract to include all the terms of the agreement that were outlined to the council. The Springsted memo, which is the same as the one you have seen except for some changes to the Minimum Assessment Agreements and Minimum Value Requirements, outlines the terms of the agreement and is included with item 6C. This is a public hearing that is not required by law, but the City Council selected to hold the hearing to get public comment. On September 27, staff will recommend that council hear any public testimony and then continue the hearing to October 11. On October 11, the EDA and the City Council will consider approving the Redevelopment Contract. Normally EDA meetings are held at 6 p.m. before the Council meeting. Because the City Council is likely to want to hear any additional testimony and have public discussion of this item, staff is recommending that the EDA meeting be held after the Council meeting. Also attached is a memo from Hartford discussing the housing types that are proposed for Woods Edge. I have included pages of the Summerhill website that Hartford references. Representatives from Hartford will be at the work session to further discuss this part of the project.
