Housing and Redevelopment Authority Meeting Minutes <br />January 9, 2001 <br />Page 2 <br />I Sparks stated her position that it is appropriate for the City to pay for environmental clean up <br />2 given the City allowed dumping to occur years ago. She stated she feels this financial assistance <br />3 is to clean up an existing mess, not to offer financial assistance to Walgreens. Sparks stated this <br />4 clean up work should be done regardless of Walgreens coming to St. Anthony and she is voting <br />5 on the $200,000 to be spent on environmental remediation. <br />6 Gilligan stated the reimbursing of site development expenses includes demolition, clean up, and <br />7 soil corrections to the extent that those costs will exceed $380,000. If the costs are less than <br />8 $380,000, the H.R.A.'s assistance level will be reduced. <br />9 Thuesen asked when the new building will be constructed. <br />10 Mr. Mike Kalscheur of TOLD Development stated they have already begun work on the <br />11 environmental study to determine what exists on the site. He expected to start construction no <br />12 later than June of 2001 or as early as mid-April. <br />13 Motion by Thuesen to adopt H.R.A.
