He <br /> said the redevelopers anticipate a majority of the purchasers would <br /> be from Minneapolis which has its own housing bond programs and it <br /> would not be economically feasible for the City or Developer to put <br /> up a million dollars in front end dollars to set up a housing bond <br /> program for the number of St. Anthony residents who can be expected <br /> to buy condominiums . However, even though the Housing Plan would not <br /> be approved until January 6 , 1985 , Mr. Childs indicated he would like <br /> to see such a plan developed early next year. <br /> There are 12 condominiums sold to date , Mr. Childs reported, and <br /> construction won't be started until 50% or 67 are sold. However, <br /> the redevelopers are putting up a model beginning the week of November <br /> 21st. The Manager told Commissioner Jones there would be no speculative <br /> buying, at least on the first round of unit purchases , on the project. <br />
