ANTHONY <br />• HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTIiORITY MINUTES <br />February 28, 1984 <br />The meeting was called to order at 9:31 P.M. by Chairman Sundland. <br />Present for roll call: Sundland, Vice Chairman Enrooth, Secretary/ <br />Treasurer Marks, and Commissioners Ranallo and <br />Makowske. <br />Also present: David Childs, Executive Director; William Soth, <br />Attorney; Dick Krier of Derrick, H.R.A. Consultant; and <br />William Bowerman, Planning Commission Representative. <br />Motion by Secretary/Treasurer Marks and seconded by Vice Chairman <br />Enrooth to approve as submitted the minutes of the H.R.A. meeting <br />held January 10, 1984. <br />Motion carried unanimously. <br />Motion by Commissioner Ranallo and seconded by Secretary/Treasurer <br />Marks to approve payment of $1,915.20 to Dorsey & Whitney for legal <br />services on the Kenzie Terrace Redevelopment Project during November <br />1983, and $1,251.72 to the Derrick Company for consulting services <br />from November 16, 1983 to February 15, 1984. <br />• Motion carried unanimously. <br />Representing the Kenzie Terrace redevelopers were John W. Arkell, <br />President of Arkell Development Corporation; Gary Tushie of Saunders- <br />Thalden, Project Architect; and Suzy Gammel, Kenzington Marketing <br />Director. <br />In his letter of February 23rd, Mr. Arkell had requested a 180 day <br />extension to the redevelopment contract, but he now indicated that, <br />since the sales of condominiums had doubled to 26 by that evening, <br />Mr. Krier's recommendation that the extension be for only 90 days <br />would be._no_problem. The developer indicated that, because sales <br />had picked up dramatically since the model open house, he was optimistic <br />his firm would be able to meet the lender's requirement that 50% <br />of the 128 units have to be sold before construction is started, <br />which it now appears could happen by June 1st. <br />Mr. Tushie informed the H.R.A. members that they should be selecting <br />a non-profit sponsor _for_20.2__funding for the senior housing proposed <br />for Phase II since the City has at last been given high priority <br />classification for obtainin_g_those funds in both Hennepin and Ramsey <br />Counties. Dick Krier reported that Max Saliterman, owner of the <br />parcel proposed for that development had signed an agreement to sell <br />the land to the City and all that remains is for the City to make the <br />zoning changes necessary for the project before the 202 funding <br />application is made April 30th. <br />
