This is precisely our <br /> proposal, and we believe (as do your consultants) that this is the highest and best use for this <br /> property. We also evaluated this property as a complete redevelopment opportunity (your <br /> consultants performed the same analysis), and came to the conclusion that it was <br /> economically infeasible to acquire and tear down the existing 40-unit property. The funding <br /> gap under such a scenario would be in excess of 52,300,000. We believe that our <br /> development proposal offers the City the highest possible quality at the lowest possible cost <br /> to the City. <br /> 4 PROPERTY MANAGEMENT <br /> Beyond providing quality property improvements, the key to maintaining quality over time is <br /> attentive, professional, on-site property management. Similar to Silver Lake Pointe <br /> Apartments, MSP will build an on-site management office so the property manager can <br /> conduct professional management operations from the property. AIso key to the project's <br /> success is to hire a professional management company with experience in this particular <br /> property type. MSP will evaluate several professional management companies to insure that <br /> 4) the best company is selected. <br /> PROJECT TIMELINE <br /> 1.) City Resolution approving Holman Funding (April 1997) <br /> 2.) Loan Approval (May 1997) <br /> 3.) PUD Approval (July 1997) <br /> 4.) Land Purchase (September 1997) <br /> S.) Construction Start (October 1997) <br /> 6.) Construction Completion (June 1998) <br /> Under this proposal, the City's S195,000 investment spurs over $5,500,000 of investment in <br /> your community, and substantially upgrades an under-utilized property. <br /> We hope the City of Mounds View will look favorably on the aforementioned requests. We <br /> look forward to working with you once again to provide quality housing in your community. <br /> �cerely, f i <br /> ler iti4 ' <br /> 7' ii -- <br /> Milo Pinkerton <br /> President <br /> MSP Real Estate Services, Inc. <br /> jcath3.ttr <br />
