Mounds View EDA May 10, 2004
Regular Meeting Page 2
Coordinator Backman indicated that Staff recommends that the termination be contingent upon 46
the sale actually occurring. He then indicated that Staff recommends that Section 7.2 of the 47
agreement that already exists and was already agreed to remain and it is the indemnification for 48
the City that is to survive termination. 49
50
Coordinator Backman indicated that the issue of whether or not the City is to make the developer 51
payment in August 2004 arose today. He then said that he consulted the City’s TIF attorney and 52
they are of the opinion that, if the building is sold and the note terminated, the City is not 53
obligated to make the payment. 54
55
MOTION/SECOND: Gunn/Quick. To Approve Resolution 04-EDA-185 Approving the 56
Termination of the Development Agreement between the Mounds View EDA And Michel 57

for the Building N Project. 59
60
Vice President Stigney indicated that he does not agree with what is happening and will not vote 61
for this. 62
63
Vice President Stigney indicated that he is concerned about the position this puts the City in. 64
65
Vice President Stigney asked whether wording could be added to require that the sale close prior 66
to August 1, 2004. 67
68
Coordinator Backman indicated that if the closing occurs after the August 1, 2004 date there is an 69
argument that could be made that the City is to make the payment. 70
71
City Administrator Ulrich indicated that, as long as this does not close, the TIF agreement 72
remains in effect and the City makes the payments. 73
74
Commissioner Marty asked what the amount of the payment is. 75
76
Coordinator Backman indicated the payment amount is approximately $24,000. 77
78
John Ryden from CB Ellis addressed the Authority and indicated that their request had been to be 79
completely released from the agreement. 80
81
Coordinator Backman indicated that there is already an indemnification clause in the document 82
that survives termination and that was previously agreed to. He then said that it applies only to 83
the time during which the building is owned by Michael Investments. 84
85
Commissioner Quick asked whether the motion included the suggested amendments. 86
87

The Motioner and Seconder agreed. 88
89
Mr. Ryden indicated that it is their position that the City is required to make the August payment 90
as it is a payment based on the May tax payment and should not be tied to the date of closing. 91
92
Ayes – 3 Nays – 2 (Marty/Stigney) Motion carried. 93

B. Resolution 04-EDA-186 Requesting that the City Council of the City of 95

Proposed Adoption of a Modification to the Development Program for the Mounds View 102
Economic Development Project. 103
104
Vice President Stigney indicated he feels that the City should spend some time identifying 105
parcels for redevelopment rather than amending the plan to include as many parcels as is 106
possible. 107
108
Coordinator Backman indicated that it is in the City’s best interest to have as many parcels 109
identified as is possible so that, if the opportunity for redevelopment presents itself, the City is 110
allowed to utilize TIF Funds for the project. 111
112
Vice President Stigney indicated that he is concerned about the lack of planning as well as the 113
costs associated with this. 114

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: President Linke and Members of the Authority
From: Jim Ericson, Community Development Director
Item Title/Subject: Correct EDA Resolution 04-EDA-186 by Changing the
Date of the Requested Public Hearing for the adoption
of a Modification to the Development Program for the
Mounds View Economic Development Project
Introduction:
Resolution 04-EDA-186, adopted by the Authority on May 10, 2004, requested that the City
Council set a public hearing on June 21, 2004 to consider the modification to the
Development Program for the Economic Development Program. June 21, 2004 is NOT a
scheduled meeting date, which necessitates a correction to the resolution.
Discussion:
It is recommended that the EDA approve a correction to Resolution 04-EDA-186 by changing
the date from June 21, 2004 to June 28, 2004. The change of date for the hearing will also
need to be corrected at the Council level and a n item has been placed on the Council’s
consent agenda to accomplish this. Attached to this report is the revised Timeline which was
presented top the EDA on May 10, 2004.
Recommendation:
Approve the correction to Resolution 04-EDA-186. A new resolution is unnecessary; the
correction can be made by motion of the Authority. The Resolution would be corrected
as indicated.
Respectfully submitted,
