MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor & City Council
FROM: Todd Gerhardt, City Manager
DATE: June 10, 2013 1%
SUBJ: Approve Purchase Agreement with Center Companies for
Redevelopment of Ivan's Sinclair Gas Station,
7910 Dakota Avenue
PROPOSED MOTION:
"The City Council approves the Vacant Land Purchase Agreement between the
City of Chanhassen Center Companies in the amount of $85,000 for purchase
of excess right -of -way associated with the Sinclair property at 7910 Dakota
Avenue.
Approval requires a simple majority vote of the city council.
Attached please find a Vacant Land Purchase Agreement between the City of
Chanhassen and Center Companies (Attachment #1). Center Companies
President Ben Merriman has been active in redeveloping sites in Chanhassen for
the past several years, including Goodwill and Haskell's. Mr. Merriman is now
working on the redevelopment of the Sinclair Gas Station site at 7910 Dakota
Avenue (Attachment #2).
PROPOSED REDEVELOPMENT PLANS
Currently, the Sinclair gas station sits on approximately .6 acres of land. It
operates as a gas station/convenience store and sells liquid petroleum out of a
2,000 - gallon bulk storage tank just north of the store. The property is zoned
Highway Business and the site conforms to all of the city's zoning regulations
with the exception of site coverage percentage. Center Companies is proposing
to demolish the convenience store and remove both the liquid petroleum and the
underground gas tanks. In its place, Center Companies would build an 8,000 sq.
ft. retail center that would accommodate three tenants. The tenant mix includes
a coffee shop with a drive -thru, specialty sandwich shop, and the third tenant is
unknown at this time (Attachment 43). To accommodate the 8,000 sq. ft.
building, the developer intends to purchase a portion of the city -owned property
adjacent to the site.

PROS AND CONS OF THE REDEVELOPMENT
Pros
® Could boost tax revenues (Attachment #4):
2012 Tax Estimates:
- Current Development Pays
- After Redevelopment
Total
City Portion
$17,580
$1,494.81
$48,088
$4,800.00
e More Job Opportunities: In addition to the construction jobs created by the
redevelopment, a minimum of 16 new jobs would be created by the new tenants.
Improving the environment by correcting the contaminated soils from the previously
leaking tanks.
o Elimination of the risk associated with liquid petroleum and automobile gas.
® Improving the aesthetics of the area by introducing higher quality architecture.
• Eliminates access points off of Dakota Avenue and avoids traffic conflict.
Cons
e Potential traffic increase on Dakota and Lake Drive.
• Change in the neighborhood mix of retail.
The excess right -of -way is not buildable in its current configuration. The area is better
served by combining the two parcels (Sinclair and city parcel) for one larger
development.
TERMS OF THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Purchase Price: $85,000 ($3.20 per sq. foot x 26,531 sq. ft.)
Closing: No later than June 1, 2014
Real Estate Commission: Lotus Real Estate Services, 3% of purchase price or $2,550
Contingency: Sale is contingent upon the project receiving site plan approval from the city
Staff supports the proposed redevelopment and the attached purchase agreement. In most cases,
cities would provide monetary support for a redevelopment project similar to this request;
specifically, assistance with soil corrections or relocation of utilities. Selling a portion of the
city's excess right -of -way makes the project feasible for the city and developer.
