ORDINANCE NO. 06-97
AN EMERGENCY ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE SALE OF PROPERTY
The City Council of the City of Lino Lakes hereby ordains as follows:
Legislative Findings of Fact
The City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota, has recently approved a Master Plan for the 75 -acre
Village within the Lino Lakes Town Center on I-3 5 W/Hwy 49 in Lino Lakes. This Master
Plan was developed to further the City's general plan of economic development within the
community.
The City has recently negotiated with a landowner to purchase a 13.6 -acre parcel within
the Village. The City finds it to be in its best interest to complete this land contract to
control the content, quality and pace of development within the Village.
The City also has facilitated the location of a Fairview Hospital Clinic on a portion of the
parcel it is acquiring. The schedule for construction of the clinic requires that the sale of
the property to Fairview Hospital and Healthcare Services and the issuance of a building
permit must transpire within the next 30 days. The location of the clinic in Lino Lakes is
viewed by the City as an improvement to the health and welfare of its citizens as well as a
critical component to the City's overall economic development plan.
Under Section 12.05 of the Lino Lakes City Charter, no real property of the City shall be
disposed of except by Ordinance. A City Ordinance requires two readings and a 60 -day
waiting period before the Ordinance can be enacted. The City finds that reasonable
measures must be taken to protect the public interest by enacting this Ordinance as an
emergency Ordinance under Section 3.06 of the City Charter:
I
The real property legally described as Lot 1, Block 1, The Village No. 1 (the "Property")
is to be owned by the City of Lino Lakes (the "City") upon closing on Monday, April 14,
1997. The city council for the City has determined that sale of the Property to Fairview
Hospitals is in furtherance of the Master Plan for the Village and will not be needed by the
City for any other public purpose.
The city council of the City authorizes sale of the Property to Fairview Hospital and
Healthcare Services for $190,575. The mayor and city clerk -treasurer are hereby
authorized and directed to execute such deed and other documents as may be necessary in
accordance with the requirements of the city charter.
This ordinance shall be in full force and effect upon its passage by a majority of Council
Members at the March 24, 1997 City Council meeting and shall be in force until the
transfer of property from the City of Lino Lakes to Fairview Hospital has been completed.
Passed by the Council of the City of Lino Lakes this 24th
March 24 , 1997.
