AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into this day of ,
' 1994, by and between the City of Chanhassen (hereinafter "the City ") and T. F. James
Company, an Iowa corporation (hereinafter "James ").
' RECITALS
I A. In 1992 the City initiated plans for Improvcmeut Project 92 -3, a project
' that involved the reconstruction and realignment of a portion of West 78th Street in
downtown Chanhassen. As part of that project, the City authorized condemnation of
certain parcels of undeveloped property owned and previously platted by James.
' B. Pursuant to an Agreement dated May 14, 1993 (hereinafter "the '93
Agreement "), the City and James agreed that the interests and parcels identified in the
'93 Agreement which were to be the subject of a condemnation proceeding would be
' transferred to the HRA in return for the payment to James by the H17A. of an amount
equal to the City's appraisal of compensation due to James for condemnation of those
interests. The parties further agreed that they would continue to negotiate final
' resolution of the acquisition and compensation issues. A true and correct copy of the
q P
' 193 Agreement is marked as Exhibit A and is attached hereto.
' C. The reconstruction and realignment of West 78th Street, as it affected the
property owned by James, included fee title acquisition of most of Lot One (1), Block
Two (2), 'West Village Heights Second Addition and permanent easement acquisitions
over parts of Outlot A and Lot One (1), Block Two (2) and Lots One (1) through
Four (4), Block One (1), all owned by James and all located in West Village Heights
17479
029
Second Addition.
D. James had previously platted those parcels in West Village Heights
Second Addition as part art of the platting and subdivision process, and pursuant to a '
Developer's Agreement duly executed by the City and Jaynes, had dedicated a strip of '
land to the City for the future realignment of West 78th Street. ,
E. In its efforts to develop commercial uses on the platted property, James
had undertaken soil correction efforts and had established soil elevations on the '
property in anticipation of the realignment of West 78th Street along the route
dedicated to the City by James. '
P'. As part of its efforts to establish commercial uses on the property, James
had received approval from the City for a retail shopping center with retail gasoline ,
sales use on one of the parcels affected by Improvement Project 92 -3. James incurred
expenses related to the architectural and engineering plans for said center.
G. As part of its Improvement rovement Project 92 -3, the realignment of West 78th
Street follows an alignment that is different than that alignment dedicated to the City
by James in the platting and subdivision of West Village heights Second Addition. '
As part of the new West 78th Street realignment, the City vacated a portion of the
platted West 78th Street p revioilsly dedicated by James. Upon vacation by the City,
fee title in that parcel reverted to James, and James has taken into consideration the
value of that land in accepting this settlement.
H. As a result of the realignment of West 78th Street and the vacation of a
portion of the previously dedicated and platted land, some of the previously platted '
lots in West Village Heights Second Addition do not have frontage on -a traveled
17479 -2_
n
roadway even though they had frontage on previously platted West 78th Street.
1. Replatting of a portion of West Village Heights Second ,Addition would
be appropriate to correct many newly created frontage, access and tax parcel issues.
J. Also, as a result of the realignment of West 78th Street, the elevation of
the new road and the elevation of the remaining parcels owned by James was such that
' substantial earth work was necessary on some of the remaining James property.
' K. The City and James have negotiated various issues over the past year and
wish to finally resolve all remaining issues, including those raised by the matters set
forth above.
' NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual terms, covenants and
' conditions set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the City of Chanhassen and T. F.
James Company agree as follows:
1. The City acknowledges that James load previously received City approval
' for a retail gasoline sales use on Lot One (1), Block Two (2), West Village Heights
Second Addition. The City agrees to take that previous approval into consideration if,
' in the future James seeks approval of a similar use on another parcel in West Village
PP p
Heights Second Addition. The'parties hereto acknowledge that the City may make no
' representation or give no assurances that it will approve any such request by James for
gasoline sales use in that area.
2. The City will participate in the replat of Lots One (1) through. Four (4),
Block One (1), West Village Heights Second ,Addition and the vacated portion of West
78th Street and the remnant of Lot One (1), Block Two (2), West Village Heights
17479 -3-
Second Addition. The City agrees to endeavor to accomplish the replat in the most
expeditious manner available under current City ordinances governing subdivision and
platting. No additional park, trail, or other fees shall be payable by virtue of this
replat.
To accomplish the replat, James, at its own cost and expense, shall provide the
City with the information necessary to accomplish the replatting, including drawings
and legal descriptions prepared by a registered land surveyor and conforming to the
requirements of the current City ordinances governing subdivision and platting of
property. Upon receipt of the required information, the City shall consider the replat
in the most expeditious manner possible under current City ordinances.
3. This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the State of Minnesota and shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

AGREEMENT '
THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into this day of
1994, by and between the Chanhassen Housing and Redevelopment Authority
(hereinafter "HRA ") and T. F. James Company, an Iowa corporation (hereinafter ,
"James"). '
RECITALS
1 '
A. In 1992 the City of Chanhassen (hereinafter "City") initiated plans f or
Improvement Project 92 -3, a project that involved the reconstruction and realignment '
of a portion of West 78th Street in downtown Chanhassen. As part of that project, the '
City authorized condemnation of certain parcels of undeveloped property owned and
previously platted by James.
B. Pursuant to an Agreement dated May 14, 1993 (hereinafter "the '93
Agreement "), the City and James agreed that the interests and parcels identified in the '
'93 Agreement which were to be the subject of a condemnation proceeding would be
ed to the HRA in return for the payment to James by the HRA of an amount '
transferred P ym
equal to the City's appraisal of compensation due to James for condemnation of those
interests. The parties further agreed that they would continue to negotiate final
resolution of the acquisition and compensation issues. A true and correct copy of the
'93 Agreement is marked as Exhibit A and is attached hereto.
C. The reconstruction and realignment of West 78th Street, as it affected the
17479
09! "16!94 15:38 $612 452 5550 CAMPBELL KNUTSON -+44 CHAN. CITY HALL X1003/029

property owned by James, included fee title acquisition of most of Lot One (1), Block
Two (2), West Village Heights Second Addition and permanent easement acquisitions
over parts of Outlot A and Lot One (1), Block Two (2) and Lots One (1) through
Four (4), Block One (1), all owned by James and all located in West Village Heights
Second Addition.
D. James had previously platted those parcels in West Village Heights
Second Addition and, as part of the platting and subdivision process, and pursuant to a
Developer's Agreement duly executed by the City and James, had dedicated a strip of
land to the City for the future realignment of West 78th Street.
B. In its efforts to develop commercial uses on the platted property, James
had undertaken soil correction efforts and had established soil elevations on the
property in anticipation of the realignment of West 78th Street along the route
dedicated to the City by James.
F. As part of its efforts to establish commercial uses on the property, James
had received approval from the City for a retail shopping center with retail gasoline
sales use on one of the parcels affected by Improvement Project 92 -3. James incurred
expenses related to the architectural and engineering plans for said center.
G. As part of its improvement Project 92 -3, the realignment of West 78th
Street follows an alignment that is different than that alignment dedicated to the City
by James in the platting and subdivision of West Village Heights Second Addition.
As part of the new West 78th Street realignment, the City vacated a portion of the
17479
-2-
09-"16.94 15:39 $612 452 5550 CAMPBELL MTTSON 444 CHAN. CITY HALL 2004/029
platted West 78th Street previously dedicated by James. Upon vacation by the City, '
fee title in that parcel reverted to James, and James has taken into consideration the
'
value of that land in accepting this settlement.
'
H. As a result of the realignment of West 78th Street and the vacation of a
'
portion of the previously dedicated and platted land, some of the previously platted
lots in West Village Heights Second Addition do not have frontage on a traveled
'
roadway even though they had frontage on previously platted West 78th Street.
'
Heights Second Addition would
Y. R.eplatting of a portion of West Village Hei g
be appropriate to correct many newly created frontage, access and tax parcel issues.
J. Also, as a result of the realignment of West 78th Street, the elevation of
'
the new road and the elevation of the remaining parcels owned by James was such that
substantial earth work was necessary on some of the remaining James property.
ial y
K. The HRA and James have negotiated various issues over the past year
'
and wish to finally resolve all remaining issues, including those raised by the matters '
set forth above.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual terms, covenants and '
conditions set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt '
and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Chanhassen Housing and '
Redevelopment Authority and T. F. James Company agree as follows:
1. James will execute and deliver to the HRA the originals of the Quit
