• 3 1 100 units for general occupancy and Kraus Anderson would construct 2 the commercial portion. 3 The Manager said the H.R.A. would be reviewing those proposals, looking 4 at each developers' financial strength and judging the proposals on how 5 they related to the design guidelines, etc. , which had been established 6 for the project. He said he expected two of these companies to be 7 interviewed prior to the Council meeting and during the H.R.A. meeting 8 scheduled to be held August 25th, with possibly one of them being 9 selected at that time. If one developer is named that evening, they 10 would be given 30 days to work out a Redevelopers Agreement for doing 11 the project. If no agreement is worked out by then, the next highest 12 ranking contractor would be contacted to try to negotiate an acceptable 13 agreement with the H.R.A. , according to Mr. Childs. He added that all 14 four developers had appeared to meet all minimum requirements for a 15 "solid" developer with the financial strength to do a project which 16 would meet the tax increment needs of the City and all wanted to get 17 started right away. 18 With public hearings required before both the Commission and Council 19 once a developer is selected, and the time it would probably take to 20 acquire the land, Mr. Childs said he thought it would probably not be 21 before spring when construction could start, even though a few of the 22 firms had indicated a willingness to get going by February. The Manager 023 then invited the Commissioners to look at the copies of the proposals 24 which are available at City Hall. 25 The Manager then brought the Chair up to date on the new retail center 26 being constructed west of the Apache Mall, saying he understood the 27 building had been constructed to the point where tenants could finish 28 them to their own needs. The next public hearing scheduled for that 29 evening was opened at 7: 50 P.M. , as scheduled. 30 CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARINGS 31 Request for Temporary Office Facility for Minnesota Scientific Gains 32 Recommendation for Approval Under Certain Conditions 33 The Chair read the notice of the hearing, which had been published in 34 the August 5th Bulletin and sent to all property owners of record within 35 350 feet of the subject property. No one present reported failure to 36 receive the notice or objected to its content. 37 Application: for a Special Use Permit to allow Minnesota Scientific 38 to locate a 12 foot X 56 foot temporary mobile office on 39 the east side of the building they lease from Donatelle 40 Properties at 3839 Chandler Drive, until December, 1988. 41 Supporting V2 Documents: July 29th letter from the Minnesota Scientific President, 3 Bruce LeVahn;
