Draft EDC Minutes <br />February 15, 2013 <br />Page 3 of 3 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />7. REPORTS OF STAFF <br /> <br />City staff provided updates on the following items: <br /> <br />A. Mounds View Business News <br /> <br />The EDC discussed the status of the former Taiko Sushi res taurant building. Chair <br />Belting stated that that he would be in favor of purchasing the property at an appropriate <br />price, which should reflect the land value only since the existing building would be <br />removed. Commissioner Larson agreed. <br /> <br />Commissioner Freichels said that it would be important to receive demolition bids, <br />including asbestos testing, prior to purchasing the building. <br /> <br />Commissioner Helgmoe mentioned that the Sherriff’s sale price includes attorney’s fees, <br />past due interested, etc. so that particular price is higher than what the property is worth. <br /> <br />The EDC requested that City staff provide them with comparable values and or/sales for <br />the parcel (with and without the building) at the next EDC meeting. <br /> <br />B.
