Explanatiort/Sumnta�y (attach supplement sheets as necessary) Sunrmary: Staff has received a letter from Gary Miller, owner of 8283 Long Lake Road, offering the property for sale to the Economic Development Authority (EDA) (see Attachment 1). The property is located south of Ardan Park, where the Ramsey County Compost Site is located. In December, the City Council authorized an appraisal to be done on this property. The appraisal was conducted on December 18, 1996, and gives a value of $55,000. The appraiser indicated that almost every aspect of the home's condition was considered below average, with problem with moisture in the basement, structural damage and poor exterior condition. The property would qualify for purchase under the Housing Replacement Program. At the January 6 Study Session, purchase of this property as well as two adjacent properties located at 8271 Long Lake Road and 2510 Ardan Avenue was discussed. It has come to our attention that both 8271 Long Lake Road and 2510 Ardan Avenue are now both tenant occupied. Therefore, staff has ceased any further discussion with the property owners regarding purchase of this property as indicated by the Housing Replacement Program guidelines (see Attachment 2). Tenant occupied properties are not eligible for purchase under the program. Therefore, the resolution before you at this time is to authorize acquisition of 8283 Long Lake Road only. Backgrountl on Housing Replacenzent Progrant In May, 1996, the Economic Development Authority (EDA) established a Housing Replacement Program fully funded by Tax Increment Financing (TIF), the capture of the increase of tax revenue from properties in specifically designated districts before and after development. (See attached map for Mounds View's TIF districts; Attachment 3). As the map indicates, Mounds View's TIF districts contain for the most part only commercial and industrial areas. A portion of the proceeds fund the Housing Replacement Program. The purpose of this program is to purchase and demolish substandard homes, clear the site and sell the raw land to a buyer/developer team or contract with a non-proiit organization to construct a new home. The houses targeted in this program are houses which are beyond repair or the cost of repair would exceed the total value of the property. The primary purpose of the program is to remove houses which are in very poor condition, and are causing a bli�hting effect on the surrounding neighborhood. It also helps to improve the RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution No. 97-EDA-59 to begin negotiations for the purchase of 8283 Long Lake Road. _� __ . . w_ . . _ � �� :_ . . _ ���m�-- . `� _ _ . _ — — - _ __ . �.� . r Economic Development Authority Purchase of 8283 Long Lake Road January 13, 1997 Page 2 City's overall tax base by replacing smaller, lower valued homes which have become obsolete with new, higher valued homes. Thus, the Housing Placement Program uses tax revenue from commercial and industrial properties to improve the City's housing stock and neighborhood conditions. The Housing Replacement Program is one of the ways in which the City Council has been working to implement to goals from the Mounds View Focus 2000 project. The City Council initiated this project in 1994. It involved citizen stakeholders in a visioning process to identify what issues were of concern to the community and what direction should be taken in addressing these issues. The report from the steering committee included a neighborhood appearance goal "to facilitate the continuous improvement of neighborhood appearance." Goals and action steps established by City Council in 1995 and 1995 included: Begin the rehabilitation of the City's housing stock Develop a program for nuisance abatement and code enforcement to improve neighborhood appearance. Adopt, promote and enforce the benefits of a City-wide nuisance ordinance. Resolve abatement problems and problem properties. 'i �%I��'yyvv�/it, �i�U,;(��j(�����j�_ _ _ __ .

I waive any rights or claims to relocation benefits in the event of my voluntary sale of the property to the City of Mounds View. Enclosad is a copy of a letter regarding the adjacent compost site, north of my home. In spite ofthe positive comments contained in the letter, the presence of the site influenced the negative decision from my credit union for an equity loan, for home improvment. Also, please be advised that the site is too close to residential area as defined by Ramsay County guidelines and is therefore ilegal. The purchase of my home could mitigate that situation even though the noise, dust and smell would remain. I look forward to a favorable, mutually agreeable offer, for my home and land by the City of Mounds View.

Program Objectives • Replace small lower value housing on scattered sites throughout the City with larger, new, higher value housing designed for families. • Eliminate the blighting influence of substandard housing, thus improving residential neighborhoods. • Increase the availability for quality housing for families. Data Privacy All files and information which identifies property and persons is private and cannot be released. All information secured through the program is subject to the Data Privacy Act. Acquisition Procedures (Sale to EDA) Seller Solicitation Procedures 1. EDA staff, or their appointee(s), will solicit for sellers by direct mail, advertisement, or other method. The number of properties purchased will be determined by the availability of resources and properties. 2. Sale to the EDA must be on a voluntary basis. Interested sellers are required to respond to the EDA solicitation in writing, with an offer indicating: a. An interest in selling their property to the EDA. b. A willingness to waive relocation benefits. c. Statement of tenant interest in the property at the time of offer. .. . : . �,-. -.s.. -` _ _ __ _ - _ . d. Consent to the release of relevant information to potential developers and end buyers. Owners who have expressed an interest in selling must be contacted to inform them of the estimated project time line and solicit the required written response. Property Selection Criteria EDA staff, or their appointee(s), will prepare property fact sheets for properties which owners have expressed an interest in selling, and make a drive by inspection. Properties will be evaluated based on the following criteria. To be eligible for acquisition, properties must meet criteria # 1 a, b, c or d; and #2 through #5. 1. The property is: a. Substandard as to condition, size or usage. b. Obsolete and of a faulty design for blocic and area in which it is located. c. A deteriorating factor which has caused blight to other adjoining properties. d. Detrimental to the safety or health of abutting properties in the blocic. 2. An effort will be made to provide a geographic mix of properties. The site can be developed with a single family home within city code requirements, including zoning and conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. 4. The property must be owner-occupied or vacant before the owner should consider offering it to the EDA. Tenant occupied properties will not be considered for purchase. Prior to acquisition by the EDA, properties over 50 years old must be evaluated for historical significance. This will be accomplished by forwarding general property information and a property photo to the Minnesota Historical Society for review. This should be confirmed prior to signing a purchase agreement. The EDA will not purchase property which qualifies for the National Registry of Historical Structures. Property Evaluation Procedures Based on the above information, EDA staff, or their appointee(s), will identify the best candidates for acquisition. The following will be considered in that evaluation: 2 _ _ a. Properties must be available to meet the EDA development time frame. b. Properties with one or more of the following characteristics should be considered first: lowest values poorest visible eonditions located in average to better neighborhoods c. Properties purchased should be equally distributed by location and value through the districts when possible, and provide a viable financial mix of properties to support program financial requirements. Given the above considerations, each site will be evaluated on a case by case basis. 2. Once an offering letter is received, EDA staff, or their appointee(s), will contact the owners of the properties and arrange an inspection of the interior for blight qualification. The following information will also be obtained during the inspection: a. Demolition information for estimating demolition credit to builder. b. A determination as to the existence of any hazardous materials on the property. This includes: a visual inspection a statement from the seller regarding any knowledge of the properties use for production, storage, deposit, or disposal of any toxic or hazardous wastes or substances or asbestos products whatsoever, during the time seller owned the property and prior to the date of seller purchased property. Properties with environmental problems or hazards may be considered if the purchase price is reduced suf�iciently to cover increased site clearance and preparation costs. If a property meets the blight test, acquisition procedures can continue. If the blight test cannot be met, the property cannot be considered for acquisition. 4. If a variance is required to redevelop the property, the EDA may, at its sole discretion, choose not to acquire the property. This determination will be made based on the project time lines, available resources, and availability of more desirable properties which do not require a variance. --� . .._. . — _ _ _ � _ �--�_ _ - _ �-- ---_ If the EDA chooses to continue with the acquisition, a fee appraisal will be ordered to determine the purchase price of the property (to present to the seller), the reuse value as a vacant lot, and a finished price range for new single family construction (to present to the developer). The independent fee appraiser will be carefully instructed to document in specific terms the conditions of the property; details regarding structural condition and floor plan. The acceptance of these conditions in the market place should be discussed in the report. The appraisers value judgement should reflect these conditions. 6. If the seller agrees to the purchase price and signs a purchase agreement, the property will be included in the EDA marketing program. The purchase agreernent will be contingent on the completion of an environmental evaluation suggesting no evidence of hazardous waste on the property. � 7. Sellers will be asked to provide the Abstract or RPA (as applicable) to the EDA, to facilitate the rendering of a title opinion. The cost of updating the Abstract or RPA will be the seller's if a sale occurs. 8. Legal Counsel will be responsible for having the Abstract or RPA updated and will contact staff as quickly as possible with an oral opinion of title. A written opinion or title insurance policy will follow shortly thereafter. 9. If the title opinion indicates the property has marketable title, purchase procedures will continue. If the title opinion does not indicate a marlcetable title, the EDA,, at its sole discretion, may choose not to acquire the property. The EDA may determine remedies and evaluate their resolution, including the additional time and expense to provide marketable title. The EDA may proceed to correct title deficiencies once a Purchase Agreement is executed by the seller. 10. Simultaneously with the title opinion, an environmental Phase I audit may be obtained from an independent environmental engineering firm or other firm performing such service. If environmental hazards are found on the site, the EDA may choose not to acquire the property. Acquisition Process When a purchase price has been determined, the seller will be informed of: a. The purchase price b. How the purchase price was determined. c. If negotiations fail, and the offer is not accepted, the EDA will not acquire 0 the property. 2. Once a negotiated price has been reached, a contract for purchase, with the attached form of purchase agreement and "waiver of relocation payment" form must be executed by the seller for the acquisition process to continue. The relocation benefits which the seller agreed to waive, must be clearly explained at this time, if not explained previously. 3. The acquisition and disposition of the property is in conformance with the Mounds View Comprehensive Plan. 4. Following EDA authorization of these agreements seller will be requested to assemble or supply all required documentation prior to closing. 5. The seller must be prepared to vacate the property on the day of closing. Special considerations during the acquisition process: a. Non-homestead vacant property will be considered for acquisition. b: Tenant occupied property cannot be acquired. c. Property expenses related to maintenance, taxes, and insurance should be minimized since the EDA does not intend to retail title to the property. d. Review appraisal services may be part of the negotiating process to deternvne purchase price. e. Negotiated prices considerably below the assessor's marlcet value, may be accepted without appraisal on a case by case basis if the seller concurs. f. Number of acquisitions is deternuned by available resources (funding and staf�. � ...: . . . . . . ... .. . . .�� . , . -' _; - i�__ . .
