the adjacent property and Property’s prior uses have contaminated the environment with fuel oil and gasoline, diesel range organics, various volatile organic compounds, asbestos, and tetrachloroethene. The Village has already fully remediated the asbestos contamination and, together with appropriate governmental authorities, will undergo further remediation as part of the redevelopment. The Property is already part of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (“MPCA”) Voluntary Investigation and Cleanup (“VIC”) program and has received MPCA approval for its Voluntary Response Action Plan (“VRAP”) to fully remediate contamination as part of the development. 5) A fair and open public process. When a formal application is received for development, the city will provide outlets for community discourse and discussion on the proposal. The Village has sought to ensure a fair and open public process. After developing the plans for the Project, The Village held open community meetings to discuss the design and receive feedback. It also agreed to engage smaller groups to address specific questions. It has met with the Minneapolis Park and Rec department, Hennepin County Public Works, the Fire Chief and Fire Marshall, and SAV’s engineer, all to gather as much input as possible to ensure the Project is truly a shared vision. In addition, the Applications will face the planning commission’s scrutiny and a full public hearing. Additional Considerations Staging & Process The Village seeks approval for its preliminary PUD application on the entire Project to get building dimensions approved and detail a shared vision for development. On receipt of that approval, The Village will work with staff on the terms of the master development agreement that is part of all PUD approvals. Once there is preliminary agreement on those terms, The Village will promptly submit for final PUD approval on the Project. The phasing plan for the Project is significantly more compact than the original plans. After the final PUD approval, work will commence on the assisted senior living building as soon as weather conditions will allow. Construction is expected to take approximately 18 months to complete per building. As crews finish their particular subset of work, they will move to the independent senior living building and then to the market rate building. The Village is hopeful to commence work at the end of 2018 with
