Mounds View City Council Page 6 <br />• Regular Meeting January 23, 1995 <br />Councilmember Hankner arrived at 7:20 p.m. <br />B. Consideration of Resolution No 4711 Authorizing Application <br />for Ramsev County Community Development Block Grant/Home Funds <br />for the Rehabilitation of Woodlawn Terrace <br />Cathy Bennett, Economic Development Coordinator, explained <br />that it has been recommended by the Minnesota Housing Finance <br />Authority and Ramsey County that the City of Mounds View apply <br />for CDBG/Home Funds regarding Woodlawn Terrace rather than <br />supporting a private application for the funds. There are <br />current financial and legal situations between Northridge <br />Properties and MHFA which disqualify them from the grant <br />eligibility requirements. This Resolution would authorize the <br />City's application for CDBG/Home Funds for the rehabilitation <br />of Woodlawn Terrace. This project would be an ideal <br />partnership between the Minnesota Housing Finance Authority, <br />Ramsey County and the City of Mounds View. <br />Councilmember Trude asked what the position of the City would <br />be regarding this application. <br />Bennett explained that the City would be going in place of an <br />• owner at this time with the intention of getting the funds <br />allocated for this rehabilitation project. The highest <br />priority of the Ramsey County Development Block Grant/Home <br />Funds is the rehabilitation of existing structures. <br />Trude noted that last year there were many applicants for the <br />Community Development Block Grant/Home Funds. <br />Bennett said that information was mailed to all multi-dwelling <br />property owners in Mounds View requesting them to respond by <br />last week .with supporting documentation so it could be <br />included as a Resolution. To date, no responses have been <br />received. The deadline is February 1 for those applications. <br />Samantha Orduno, City Administrator, commented that if any <br />applications are received before Ramsey County's deadline, <br />they will act on the application. and allow the City to follow <br />with a Resolution of support. <br />MOTIONLSECOND: Trude/Quick to Adopt Resolution No. 4711 <br />Authorizing Application for Ramsey.
