MEMBERS PRF~ENT; Jim Bohn; Don Chmiel, Mike Mason, and Gary Boyle MEMBERS ABSENT: Charlie Robbins STAFF PRESENT: Todd Gerhardt, Asst. Executive Director APPROVAL OF bIINUTES: Bohn moved, Boyle seconded to approve the Minu~s of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority meeting dated February 24, 1994 as presented. All voted in favor, except Chmiel and Mason who abstained, and the motion carried. VIS~QR PRESENTATIONS: None. Gerhardt: Mr. Chairman, if we could just add that one item that I handed out. The I-IRA Presentations portion of the agenda. Chmiel: As item number Gerhardt: Yeah. Mason: We can't act on this tonight can we? Gerhardt: You can. I mean it should have been on the agenda and he would like to know an answer tonight because he wants to executive the redevelopment agreement. Mason: Well, I understand that but if somebody were to look at this agenda and then see that this was approved, they would say but. It wasa't on the agenda and I dian't want it to happen and I wanted to have my say in it. Gerhardt: That's your prerogative. If you want to put it until the next month, it's. Chmiel: Why don't we put that down for lIRA Presentation. Geflmrdt: Sure. Mike's point was that it's not on the agenda... Chmiel: Right No, and I agree with that Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Gerhardt: And it was my fault that it didn't get placed on the agenda. When the agenda went out I forgot all about it. Charlie called me this week and said...and I went oh oh. That's where I started off saying I forgot. Boyle: Which is a different word for overlooked. Gerhardt: Yeah. Mason: I think he overlooked it. I don't think he forgot. I mean I heard you say overlooked. Gerhardt: Karen told me I couldn't say forgot. I had to use something else so how about overlooked. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RUSS PAULY'S LEASE. Gerhardt: Mr. Chairman, HRA members. Included in your pack are two leases. One for a one year term and a second one for a two year term. Russ and I have been swapping messages and haven't gotten to each other here in the last two weeks. We met approximately 3 weeks ago and sat down and had a good talk however we never did come to a determination on the square footage. I told Russ that I had to come somewhere between $4.75 and $6.00 I felt, which was the market rate rent based on an opinion from Roman Roos. And from that I told him that I would send him two leases and that he could look at them and get back to me. So as it stands tonight, staff is proposing a one year lease at $4.75 a square foot and a two year lease at $6.00. Bohn: I thought we already voted on 18 months. Gerhardt: We, after one, part of our discussions with Russ was that we run with the length of the liquor license so he's going to get a liquor license for a full year. How do you rebate 2, 3 months, 4 months worth of liquor license back so we started out with the full second Chrniel: Couldn't you just prorate that and put it over a 24 month period, or a 12 month period when you're paying for it and just deduct whatever's left of the 6 months. That's sort of simple. Gerhardt: You probably could do that. You could probably prorate it back. We just thought it would be simpler to go from May 1 to the next May type lease agreement. The additional 4 months isn't going to make or break anything so. We just thought we'd nm with the terms Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 of the liquor license and not get into prorating. But if you wish to go with the 18 months. I remember last time we were just negotiating 2 years down to 18 months. Bohn: Wc ended up with 18 months is what wc voled on. Gerhardt: At that time. Bohn: But the only thing we didn't come to a conclusion on is what the amount of the lease would be. Gerhardt: That's correct If you want to see it for 18 months, we can do that. Boyle: Todd, just for clarification. One year, if the one year lease is signed, then it's $4.75 a square foot. But if it's elected to go, as I understand it, ff Russ elects to go 2 years, then it's $6.00 a square foot. Am I correct? Gerhardt: That's correct Russ felt that ff it's a shorter period of time, that he should pay less and if it's a longer period of time, he would be willing to pay more and we agreed with him in those statements so that's why you see the two difference in rents. Boyle: Russ, are you in agreement with these? Russ Pauly: Not with the dollar amounts, no. For a number of reasom. Boyle: Maybe we should hear from you. Russ Pauly: My name is Russ Pauly. I live at 1031 Carver Beach Road in Chanhassen and I represent Pauly's Bar and Reset. As Todd said, we had discussions that pertained to the amount of the dollar, or the dollar amounts of the lease. That was discussed with Roman Roos and as he said, it's fair market value. A number of things that don't pertain I don't think to fair market value are you know condition of the existing buildings. The way they are fight now. As far as roof and upkeep and what have you, those are all things that I would do as the renter. Basically though what Roman had said, some_ of that makes sense but the City doesn't want to make any investment in the building and I don't thinir that's really what ~hey need to do. But on the other hand I don't think I should have to pay fair mazket value if I'm going to be the one that fixes the roof. If I'm going to be the one that psints the building and you know. The City doesn't want to pay fire insurance on the building. They want the rent but they don't want to take the other responsibilities that go along wilh renting a building. And I don't think maybe they should be in that business but the fact is that, if I'm going to pay fair market rate, then that's what I should get is a fair deal when it comes to the Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 lease you know. And basically when we had our discussions on the rent, my feelings were that there should be some give and take. Basically what Roman Roos came up with is where the city stands and they haven't budged a nickel so you know, I wld Todd. I said well there's got to be some area there where we can reach agreement and they never did, in our two discussions, they never came back with a counter offer or anyflfing so I don't know, we're just kind of stuck and I thought at this point, I'm not going to sign a lease agreement for something I don't feel is fair. Initially when we talked about the possibility of having a 2 year lease as opposed to a one year lease, it would make sense. If I could lock something in for 2 years, I'd be wiIliug to pay a little extra but on the other hand you know, if it's going to be a one year deal or an 18 month deal you know now, I don't know where we stand as far as that situation. The HRA said an 18 month deal and the city's point of view was that they would just extend it to a 2 year deal to run concurrently with our liquor license. And given these changes I don't know really where the HRA stands on that... Like I said Todd and I hadn't been able to work anything out. As far as the lease agreement you know it has some value to the city. They aren't going to have to do anything with the property. If they have no plans to do anything as far as development. You know we're going to take care of the building. We're in business and it wouldn't be to my advantage to let the exterior go down the drain. To let the roof and the structural part of it go down the drain so I'm going to maintain it from that perspective...and I don't want to have to pay prime rate if I'm going to do these things. The conditions of the buildings aren't that bad. A lot of it is physicai stuff. I have plans to paint the exterior of the building again this summer you know but there again that's at my cost. I'm not asking the city to do it but on the other hand, if they're going to rent the building to me, you know Like I said, I think there should be some consideration you know if I'm going to do that type of upkeep with the building. That's over and above normal lease agreements. We did have a fire there last October and you know I didn't even call the city to find out if they had building insurance because I'm not in there to harass them or go after things like that and there again, in the lease agreements that they sent me, you know they don't plan on carrying fire insurance on the building, which isn't typical of a lease agreement. You carry your insurance on your business equipment and intea'ior features and whoever is leasing you the building carries the insurance on the building. Another thing in consideration, I don't think the city has taken fully into consideration the fact that you know I probably wouldn't be here if I was in the Kermy's building right now. I'd be remodeling that and be ready to move in probably 2 months. So it's kind of a situation where I'm stuck because if I want to stay in business at this point, I have to stay in my location where I'm at fight now. It just isn't physically or financially possible to do anything at this point. Some of the other businesses that have been given consideration, you know I had a little chat with Bernie Hanson from Chan Lawn and Sport and they were in there building for I think roughly a year you know after they were to vacate it and he was paying $300.00 a month on a 5,000 square foot building. Well that's only 60 cents a square foot you know. I wld Todd, I said well I'll pay you $3.00 a square foot you know. Somewhere inbetween $3.00 and $4.7/5 and Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 they just, they wouldn't budge so I guess at this point I'm just, I'm here to see what the HRA's thoughts are on it. I know what the advantages are to keeping me there because you know we do pay our taxes. We pay a considerable amount in license fees and utili~ and parking lot rnalnumance and we're never delinquent on any, you know haven't been in the 60 years we've been in business in Chanhassen so I just think there should be a little consideration given from that point of view. Or from my point of view. I guess that's alL Thank you. Bolm: Thank you Russ. Mike. Mason: Well, not being here last month I know for s fact that Coundl voted and felt very strongly that thc lease should only go 12 months. Council, that was a very slrong message from Council and I happen to concur with that. $o therein, there's already some problems here as far as I'm concerned. The comment that the City isn't budging I have a little ~uble with considering the fact that it's my understanding from Mr. Roos that he says market value was $4.?5 to $6.00. So what I'm hearing is the city is giving low end to what market value is in the city right now, is that right Todd? Gerhardt: Ah yeah. Mason: I ~ give or take. Gerhardt: Roman went with the special conditions that go along with thl, rent. He said that the market for that special condition should come in between $4.75 and $6.00. The true market for a building lilre this is between $6.00 and $10.00. If you're out in the true mar~t. Mason: This is according to Roman, right. So L you know with those things, I .have, I'm happy with the direction staff is taking m~d then I don't know that I-IRA should be involved in negotiating rents anyway. I think if we stick our fingers in this_ then what's to prevent everybody that has any kind of lease with the city to come knocking at our doorstep. Bohn: They don't aH own property. Mason: Well I understand that but there are a nnmbcr of tenants in the city that property is owncd by the city that will certainly have the oppartmfity, ff we start giving figures lo staff and telling them that this is what we want to see, well I think we're opening up a can of worms that I quite honestly don't want to open. So I cerlainly don't want to see this go to years. I can tell you that right now. So I guess that's where I'm at right now. Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Boyle: Mike, why does Council and yourself feel that 2 years is, why do yo not want to see it go 2 years7 Mason: Well because I think there's, well for one thing, like I said and I know Dick's in the audience and Don is here too. Council wanted it to go a year because it's time to start looking at other things. Boyle: But we have nothing planned and we know it takes a long time to get something done, is that correct? Chmiel: No. No. There were some things that were discussed at that time. In fact that evening meeting I brought that up as well. That potentially we need something within the city for kids. I was looking for something as a youth center and I had been looking at that building for a long time. And I was the one that brought up the fact that we should have a year extension to give Russ that additional year because I thought with the fact that he was really getting shot down over at Kenny's, that that would at least give him an opportunity to move forward within 6 months to a year to find another location and put that business back in use. Boyle: I guess I kind of like the idea that at least it's creating some revenue for a year or two if we have nothing else going. Chmiel: Well that's part of it I think that there's going to be, there's sort of a lack of communication between HRA and back to Council and or vice versa and I don't know, how did this come up with the additional 18 months? Or to 2 years. Bohn: Well if he was going to put any money into the building and maintain the building and operate the building, a year really wasn't sufficient. Mason: Why not? Boyle: It's kind of like a compromise between a one year and two year I think is where it really came out. Mason: Well Council wanted to go with 6 months to be honest with you and they were Boyle: That was never brought up at our last meeting. Mason: Well yeah. Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Chmiel: And that's why I was son of surprised when I did read these Minu~ that nothing was mentioned of that fact. Discussion at Council. Mason: Well I believe Todd, in the HRA Minutes Todd did say that Council wanted, and I'll check it but I believe you made a comment about the Coundl wanting a year lease.. Gerhardt: They askexi me where the one year came from and I said that that was the direction from City Council. Boyle: One year though, not 6 months. Mason: Well right. Right. Oh 6 months was discussed and we vol~! on a year. I mean he wouldn't have had any reason to say we wanted 6 montl~ Boyle: Mike, in regards to your comment about setting a precedent and other people coming and asking for the same type of breaks or whatever. I would guess that may be the case if it's property owned by HRA but if it's not owned by HRA then I don't think that's going to happen. So I don't really personally put much weight on that one. Mason: Well that's fine you know and as I'm re-reading some Minutes here, Roos says rents are from $6.00 to $10.00. He did go on to make some comments that because of, I don't remember what it was but 3% should be taken off because of a management fee or some this, that and the other thing and he ended up with $4.75. It seems to me if market rates in the city are $6.00 to $10.00, I don't know why we'd want to go lower than $4.75 to tell you the Boyle: If HRA voted at our last meeting for 18 months, does that have to.come up again far another vote then? I mean is this not now made policy? Gerhardt: That's a good legal question on Robert's Rules of Order that I do not. Mason: What was your question again? Boyle: HRA voted, and the majority was here, and approved an 18 month extension on Russ' lease. Why are we discussing something different at this time? Gerhardt: I'm trying to think here. Over the last two weeks, when Russ and I met you know as part of our negotiations, he made a comment that he would be willing to pay more for a longer lease. Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Boyle: But more than what we haven't determined yet, fight? Gerhardt: Right. Boyle: Okay. Gerhardt: And with that he also said you know, I'm not going to pay for a full year's liquor license you know and I did not ask Karen if you could prorate it or that. He said it would be nice if he could run it with the term of the liquor license and that made sense to both Russ and I when we talked about it. And instead of going with the 18 months you know we suggested the 2 years. So that's where the 2 year came from. Now if you want us to modify that back down to the 18 months, I will look at seeing ff we can't prorate liquor licenses and give a rebate back. I still do not know if you can do that. So that's why I went with the 2 years. And as to can you rescind your decision of a month ago. I would think you could if you've got a majority but you can always change your mind as long as both parties agree to it. Mason: Well because this happened at Council and the meeting that I was not at, and I'm not saying I'm going to do that. Because I wasn't there, well whoever isn't there according to our City Attorney, does have the fight to make a motion to reconsider the vote. Now ff it fails for lack of a second, that's fine. But that can be done. But it has to be done tonight. I mean it's a one shot deal. After this it's a done deal. Boyle: But that would have to come from the City Attorney, is that correct? Mason: No. Either Don or myself, or I could make a motion if I wanted to asking to reconsider the vote. Chmiel: It can be done because neither of us were here. Boyle: Okay. Chmiel: That just son of surprised me that all of a sudden it takes a diff~t complexity from what it was at one time to moving it ahead. The additional, either 6 months or 12 more months. When I did have a hard time to get Council to really move ahead even with granting a one year extension. They wanted to go just strictly a 6 month period and I kept saying, well let's look at this. Boyle: Well I don't know Don. Who has the final say in it7 Does Council or does HRA7 . Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Chrnic~ I think because it's an I-IRA project, HRA has that ability. Boyle: So we can take Council's recommendation but because HRA owns it, it's HRA's final say on it, right? Mason: That's true. Boyle: And three people on the HRA voted and agreed to 18 months, is that correct7 Chrniel: Yeah. But there wasn't any of the discussion from our side of which has been brought out now. Boyle: Tonight, okay. Chmiel: And that may have changed the complexity of the final vote. Maybe. It could have been still a 3 and 2 or 4 and 1. 4 or 5 is it depending. Boyle: Well I guess my mind hasn't changed and I think the consideration, I flfiuk the fact that Russ has been very patient and kept the building up. Is willing to put revenue in. Has been there for quito some time. How long has it been Russ since. Russ Pauly: Our 60th Anniversary will be Memadal Day of this year. Boyle: How long has it been since HR owned the pwpeny? Russ Pauly: Since they've owned the ~? Boyle: Yes. Russ Pauly: It will be 4 years. Boyle: 4 years. So he's asked for an ~on. He's willing to pay some rent for the extension. I believe the consideration should be given and the consideration should be fair and I believe the 18 months tlmt we voted on was a fair consideration and at $4.75 a squm~ foot at 18 months is reasonable. That's my opinion- Provialng we can pramte the liquor Chmiel: Yeah. And if there's any ramifications to that. Todd will find that out. Bohn: Don? Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Chmieh Well I guess I have interject~:l some of my ideas and thoughts as to what I basically have felt. There's a lot of, well there was some consensus on the Council that when the HRA purchased the building and paid off the total amount of dollars for that facility, plus the other things that they had taken into consideration by contract with the lease agreement. That was all in due respect to what was being discussed for total payment, if I remember, and I think even Russ has indicated that and Todd has, both. But there comes a time when there's a facility there and we're looking at, and there isn't anything right now concrete for that particular comer. When we brought up the year extension at Council, I thought that year was something where Russ would probably want to move on with finding a site within the community and putting something back in. And that's where I saw the opportunity to move ahead with that for a youth center for the time being. Not a permanent situation by any stretch of the imagination. Because we've got so many, I've been losing my voice for the last week. We have so many kids within this community that need a place to go. A place to be and I thought there was a perfect opportunity for us to move ahead with that kind of a location. And I've had a lot of parents and even non-parents who indicated that they would be willing to assist with this. In fact I left some of that stuff at home. I forgot to bring it but I think some of the things should have been brought out by what Council has said and what was discussed and I really do. Six more months to me is not going to make any difference. If Russ finds a place that's going to be to his liking. But I'm not sure that even after 18 months that he may even proceed with that. But that's going to be his call. Not anybody else's. It's a lot of money to put into a facility and it's a popular spot. I've been there many times. My sons frequent it every once in a while and it's a good place for people to meet. But I just think that there's just been some miscomrnunications between Council back to HRA or vice versa. Even to find somethiug out and how this came about number one is what I really didn't understand. How this came up again for this discussion. And how it got on the last agenda and of course I wasn't here either so. Bohn: I wasn't aware of the (5 month thing. I honestly I wasn't. I thought we went to a year and then (5 months over a year was no big deal. Another (5 months, it makes it easy for him to operate and get things going and buying another place, I thought well. But the 6 months thing never came into. I don't think we even discussed 6 months. Mason: Well no. The reason I brought that up is to just lay some ground work for HRA to know where Council is coming frorrL I mean we all agreed to a year. The first thing that was thrown out as (5 months and for a while it looked like it was going to go 6 months. But Don, and I agreed with him that come on. 6 months wasn't a very realistic amount of time to get anything moving. So no, I wouldn't necessarily expect you folks would have known that. You know ff I could interject one more thing here which I think is a bigger picture than what Russ is going through right now. Richard asked that we have an HRA update at City Council meetings, which would be our last meeting of the month. And we concluded that we thought 10 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 that was a pretty good idea and I wondered if maybe. Bohn: It should be vica versa. Mason: I was just going to say lira. I think that would be a real good idea for eider Don or myself to give a Council update on, obviously not on everything but on issues that perlain to HRA. You know an item at the end of the agenda or whatever. Bohn: Also with the Planning Commiss/on Mason: Well. Chmiel: No, we're talking just about these two. Mason: But I think that's a good thing to go for in the future but I think, I'd like to see that added to both the liRA and the Council agenda. Chmiel: We do have people at thc Council meetings from Planning Commission. There's a representative there all the time. And the reason we have that is, in the event there's some discussion that goes back and forth, that's when we can bring them into the discussion to update us and rv~ire, us reatly aware as to what's there. Mason: Getting back to the an'rent issue at hand here. I don't have any intention of rehashing that issue. I mcan at this point I agree. Thc difference ~ 12 months and 18 months isn't that big a deal. And I agree with what Gary said about the 18 months at $4.75, assuming we can work out some sort of pwml~ schedule with thc liquor license. Sure. Absolutely. Boyle: Don, do we have any idea what it might cost to revmnp the pwpeny to convert it to a teen center? What the cost might be? Has anybody looked into the cost that it might involve to make that? Chmiel: No. It's too early in the game to even. Boyle: That was just an idea. So ~ally the only really issue here of shortening the amount of time that Russ would like to have his lease ~ is to convert the pwpa~ to a teen center and that's really the purpose for City Council wanting a shorter lease period, am I Chrniel: No. I don't even think the teen portion was redly the con_~id_ewation behind it at all 11 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 It was just a thought that I had on it that I threw out and there was probably hardly any discussion in regard to it. Other than the information I got back from people who were.here that thought that that would be a good idea. Boyle: Then why would City Council have any objection? I mean let me r~hrase that. Why would they want to shorten the lease? Chmiel: Well it was that some members on Council dlcha't quite '~ going any more than 6 month and as Mike has said, and I have said, and 1'11 reiterate it again, we felt that that wasn't justifiable and I felt that he should have at least a full given year. Boyle: Okay. Bohn: Another reason why we thought about the 18 months too is it takes, to get something done, from the time we concept it, to get it done, it takes 18 months. Not like the Byerly's but so many projects we've worked on, it seems like to get something done, it takes 1 or 2 years at least. And the way, from what I understand, did you talk to A1 Klingelhutz last night about the library? He is bound and determined to get the library on Pauly's property as soon as possible. Of course he doesn't own it and he's not on the library board anymore. Boyle: Does he own the building behind there? Bolm: Yeah, he owns half of it. Chmiel: I'm not convinced yet that that might be the location for it either. Boyle: Todd, did anytt~g come out of the meeting last, excuse me Tuesday night on the ad hoc committee on Vision 2002 that might shed light on anything here that would affect that property? Gerhardt: Well, I think they made real good progress. They were ready to lay out I think two alternative sites for the library. And unfommately it got late into the evening and I told Fred, let's close up the tents and go home and resehedule this thing. But they're at that point right now of trying to either narrow it down to I or 2 spots. Boyle: Is this property one of the spots7 Gerhardt: Yes. Boyle: Okay. 12 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Gerhardt: But they're just a recommending body to the overall group and the overall group is going to meet on the 19th again. That's our final vision and get input back. Boyle: The 19th of April7 Gerhardt: Yes. Boyle: If that pr~ was selected as the site for a library, in your best estimate, how long do you think it would take before a libraxy could, I mean everything could be done and the library consmicted on that property? And I know that's a tough question. Gerhardt: Oh, I would say probably they probably wouldn't recommend construction until the following spring. By the time you go through the government process of going through planning and that's a 2 year process in itself. And then doing land specifications and bi_'ddin§ is another 3 months. You may be able to do it yet this fall if you get stm'ted right now. Boyle: But thc odds of that are pretty slim are they not? Gerhardt: Yeah. I can demo a building...are about 3 weeks. Bohn: Can we have a motion on. Boyle: I'll make a motion that we do an 18 month lease at $4.75 a square foot pwviding the liquor license can be prorated for the second year to 6 months. Bohn: Do I have a second? Mason: Yes you do. Second. Bohn: No discussion? I have one q~on. If Russ would find a place to move to before the ~ is up. Like he finds a place in a year and he wants out of his lease. Gerhardt: He's bound by the terms of that lease. He can always come back and ask you guys to relinquish that right but he's botmd by the terms of the lease. Mason: Well I don't think we're that hard nosed. At least I hope not. I mean if that were to happen, I wouldn't have any uouble with that. Gexhardt: You can put right into the lease saying that Russ can leave at any time he wants. 13 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 · Chrniel: I think that would probably be a good condition to have contained in there. Unless you see for some reason. Gerhardt: Or he can come back and ask you too. We can write it in there. Roman would say that's worth money. Bohn: Who paid Roman7 Gerhardt: ...good representation. Mason: I can't imagine there's anybody on HRA that would have a problem with that. But I'm only speaking for myself. Boyle moved, Mason seconded that the Housing and Redevelopment Authority approve an 18 month lease for Russ Pauly at a rate of $4.75 per square foot provided the liquor can be prorated the second year. All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously. CONSIDER LEASE EXTENSION FOR DON KALLESTAD FOR THE PONY EXPRESS BAR SITE. Gerhardt: Mr. Chairman and HRA members. At our last HRA meeting Mr. Kallestad made a Visitors Presentation to you asking for an extension to his lease at the Pony Express Bar. As staff reviewed the file on this we also felt that Mr. Kaliestad had the same terms that Mr. Pauly and Mr. Pryzmus had. That was not the case. His term for his lease ended September 15th, 1991. From that he has received an extension for the last 2 years from that agreement. Staff has also had some concerns over the last approximate year and a half, two years. Staff has had to send notice to Mr. Kallestad several times for payment of rent. We went up to the fifth hour of litigation to try to get rent out of Mr. Kallestad. Finally on that 24th hour he came to terms on a payment schedule that we meet Mr. Kallestad's level. Mr. Kallestad is also delinquent on utility bills and it's staff recommendation that you do not extend the lease or give him 90 day notice to vacate and that he also pay all delinquent utility charges from that. Mr. Kallestad is here ff you want to hear his side. Bohn: Mr. Kallestad? Mr. Katlestad: Thank you gentlemen for hearing me. I jointed the businessmen in Charthassen in 1980 when I purchased the Pony Express Bar. At the time I was working for Wilson Learning Corporation when I applied for my license and I was welcomed to 14 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - M~h 31, 1994 Chanhassen by a couple of very interesting circumstances that normally don't happen to other people I guess but they did happen to me. My first check on my ledger goes out for $500.00 to the City of Chanhassen for the investigational fee, which they investigate my background to insure that I'm ethical and not connect~ to the mob and things ~ this for getting my liquor license. But I was told by Mr. Russ Larson at the time that it was $2,000.00, even though Section 36B, which if you look up in your records from 1980 sta~ very definitely Minnesota resident, $500.00. I can show you these things...if you don't believe me but they're ~'ue. I didn't n~nlre any tronble because I wanted to join the city and Russ Lin'son snid, if you want a liquor license, it's $2,000.00. He looked me in the eye and I said Russ, it's $500.00. Look fight here. He wouldn't even look. He ~ it's $2,000.00 to get a liquor license, welcome to Chanhassen. Now, when I came up with my application I was employ~ at Wilson Learning Corporation as n Mnnnger of Client Services. I wn~ formerly a Vice- President of KaHestad Laboratories producing trnnsphmts...I was gunrant~ed the Vice Presidency within 6 months at Wilson Learning but I was told by the City of ~, which is not in any other ordinances, that I must vncate my job and work the premises full time. That they would not give n liquor license to an nbsentee owner, which is not in the ordinance but it was one that they felt they had to do because they had ~'ouble with the prior owner. This is, I thought it over and I thought about fighting it nnd that my fights were being violated but I went along with it because then, and I tried to get along with the person. I worked it for nil the years. I never had a citation nt Pony Exp~ss Bar. I hronght it from $185,000.00 gross to $750,000.00 gross by 1987, which is when I was notified that they were taking my property my eminent domain but not my building. Tnk~ aH my property which I had about 65 parking plnces of my own, which met nil the city ordinances for taking of property. When the negotiations began, the city would not work with me. I could not get any replies from the attorney. The City Mnnager would not reply. We could not get any deals going. We could not get any arbitration going to wozk out n de, al on the eminent domain thing. Finally Judge Reilly ordered the City Mnnager of Chanhassen in the court under contempt of court to negotiate with me or he was going to find him in contempt of court This is not unusual for how I've been de~t with the City of Chan. I don't know what it is that I've done to get this kind of ~t but I was held up. I had to get, pny extra legal expenses to date. We had a jury already ~itting there. By the time he came down to begin his negotiations, the jury had been ~ A lot of wnsl~ money on the city's pnrt. A lot of wasted money on my pnrt, to the tune of about $35,000.00 and I was tokl nt that time that if I went through with it, that th~ would appeal any decision made and they would appeal it all the why to Supreme Court nnd I could look at another $50,000.00. Another 2 years of lost time. I wouldn't get all my money so I was forced into settling for that deal So I think that they begin the consUuction. They cut me off on aH four ~ for almost a year. Some of my employees couldn't even get into work because they were aH four sides. Russ Pauly also went through a lot of problems going through it. They've been there longer and I was a little younger and I had just invest~ in some more things and upgrading the 15 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 kitchen and things like that so that year hurt me a great deal. I came back in 1989 and made me an offer for the remaining part of the building. I was in no position to say no. Even though I was not given anything at all for the business itself, which I had raised to a considerable level. I wasn't given much time to think about it and my pockets are thin from all the hard times with all the construction that went on. So aside from that, I went through that. I had 2 years to put together another thing. In 1991 I had 3 heart attacks. Attributed a lot of it to the stress and things like that. I'm not laying any blame because my health problems are my own. I took 2 years to get back on my feet. I was a diabetic and I didn't know it and I got into all these problems which I've since gotten out of. I had to file bankruptcy in 1993 as a result of all these things. So...when I came into Chanhassen I was a rich man. I had properties and everything else. I worked here for 10 years and now I'm broke. I have a wife. A 2 year old child and we live there. My wife has a job. We're trying to work our way out of it. I've been working with the Department of Rehabilitation down in Shakopee since August of 1993. I send out 20-2~ resumes a week. It's a hard market but I anticipate I will be able to succeed shortly and we have, we're optimistic on that. So I'm asking you gentlemen to be a little gracious to us. To allow us to extend our time in there a little bit. We have a dog and a cat, a 2 year old little girl. My wife and myself. The downstairs does not lend itself to do anything because it's all screwed up. It's different levels and it's an old bar and it's dark and you can't put offices in there without extensive remodeling and you can't do any commercial things because it's limited in the lease that there can't be anything with high density parking. So the downstairs is just used for storage. We pay all the taxes on it so the city's not out anything. We take care of all the repairs. I just put $800.00 into the furnace 3 months ago rebuilding the furnace. Every time I try to find out from the city how long it will be it was a nebulous answer. No one really knowing for sure how long we'd be able to stay. It's a very short time period for us to get all our ducks in a row. We have all our...possessions. We have no place to go. We're trying to get back on our feet and we'd like to stay maybe until fall if we could. Give us time to find a place and to get our things moved and get back. I really, I commend the city for a lot of things that they're doing but I don't feel that I've really been treated very fairly down at that end. I never did get a dollar for my business. I didn't get any monies for moving or anything. For relocating and I just kind of need a fair shake from you gentlemen and if you could see it in your wisdom and your hearts to extend this until the end of the summertime into the fall sometime, it would really be appreciated by myself and my family. If you have any questions...can answer therrr Bohn: No. Thank you. Todd, I don't remember that wasn't a bar when we bought that building was it? They were operating still? Gerhardt: Yeah. The lower level was operated as a bar and the upper level was owned by... Just a little history on that. Gary and Mike weren't on the I-IR at that point but when we 16 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 were looking at starting the downtown redevelopment, we met with the Pony and Pryzmus and Pauly's and the HRA did not want to go in there and buy those businesses. We tried to work with them and put in some new facades and assisting tbem in trying to redevelop it. I think Fred or BRW worked on at least 3 or 4 alternatives to try to renovate that area and the feedback that we received from those three owners was, we want to be bought out. We do not want to put any money into these building~ That's why we moved ahead with the condemnation. Boyle: Has the upkeep of the bailalng been good? Gerhardt: I. Boyle: Is it deteriorating in any way? Oerhardt: Not that I'm aware of. I mean the building haau't been pain~l. It's in it's original condition when we bought it exterior wise. So I would say that Don has met the obligation of the lease. Boyle: Todd, if HRA was to direct staff to preimre the necessar~ papers, ew, to begin a 90 day advance written notice to evacuate the property, how long would it take to do the papers, etc7 When would the 90 days probably start7 Would it be May 1st or ~une 1st or effective immediately or? Gerhardt: That's whatever you would like to see. I mean we could probably get notice to them tomorrow. If you want to see it be out 90 days. It's got to be from the first of the month. If he doesn't get it tomorrow, it's going to have to be pushed back to next month. Boyle: Okay. Chmiel: I would like to see this go flh~uEh probably in a 6 month period and give him that oppommity to find something rather than the 90 days wr/~en notice, h's just something I feel to a point where I understand what he's saying. Some of the situations ocamed and ~re given problems. I think the city ~ have a little bit of bend in their aspect and extend that to 180 days. Boyle: For humanitarian reasons I have no l~roblem at all with 180 days. Bohn: Mike. Mason: That's fine. 17 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 , Bohn: You need that as a motion, don't you? Gerhardt: If you want, that's frae. I hear your direction. I think Don hears what you're saying and I will continue to work with Don and helping him in his transition. We have a list of apartments and any other things he may need. .. share that with him. Bohn: Okay. That would be 6 months. What would be the last day then of the lease? Mason: October 31st. (3erhardt: End of September. Boyle: That's assuming you could have it effective April 1st, which is tomorrow. That's counting April. Gerhardt: Well you only need to give him 30 days notice so I counted...It's your call. If you want it to be October 1, September 1, you know. Chmiel: I think if you use that last day of September, which I think probably will give you enough time. Mason: To October 1. Bohn: Yeah, and you don't have to move in the snow. Don Kallestad: Thank you very much gentlemen. UPDATE ON VISION 2002. Gerhardt: As some of you are aware, we met with the ad hoc committee this last Tuesday evening. It's a good group. It's a committed group of people that's really...real interested in how the downtown is going to lay out. We get a lot of feedback from them. They get some real interesting conversations and...enjoy gathering some real interesting information... and talking about the media and the libraries and one of the interesting things that they came up with is the possibility of maybe running a commuter line on the existing railroad tracks out here as a pet project. To see if it would work. People would ride the train to downtown Minneapolis. See if the railroad would allow things like that to happen so it's a free thi~ldr~g group and at this time I'd kind of like to have Fred give you an update on all the f'mdings of that committee. 18 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Chmiel: Just a quick question. You're talking the railroad over by TH 1017 Gerhardt: No, the active one. Chmiel: Oh the active one. Gerhardt~ They've taken out the uacks in southern Chan already. Chmiel: Oh they have? Gerhardt: Yeah. Those tracks are gone. Boyle: Where is thi.~ Todd? Gerhardt: The active line I think is the railroad company...the one that goes through Chauhassen, NAen Prairie and down through St. Louis Padc and then W downtown Minneapolis. Sony asked a question of could there be a commuter train that would nm, just a normal one. lust to take people from C~anhassea and to pick them up along the way into downtown Minneapolis. And see if people would use it as a project. It tweaked my interest and I'm going to look into it more. Bohn: Somebody even brought up a thing about a dinner train. Gerhardt: There is a dinner train that has contacted us that's in~ in coming in for one week a year to run a line. Boyle: I like the idea of the commuter train. Bohn: Well there was one that was going out west of here wasn't there?- Like I said at that meeting...he takes a commu~r train every day into work in downtown Chicago. He says it's chenper to tnke the train than paying the toll to get in and then paying for the pariring and he has a cup of coffee and a roll and reads the paper on the train going to work. His office is 2 blocks from the railroad depot. Mason: Once again Chan could be on the cutting edge hcre...You're right. You're right. Sorry Richard Fred Hoisington: I just want you to know we did miss Dick and the Mayor sad so forth at our meeting this last week. 19 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Chmieh I understand that. I'm happy I wasn't there. Fred Hoisington: It was, that was really rather kind. There was one testy moment or two in the session. The meeting went very well throughout the early part of the process. The future paper was very well received. The only real disagreement was that Al does know a great deal about libraries and has been involved with this one for a long time with Carver County and he did tend to disagree that we would see thc substantial change in libraries that will occur over the next 10 years. But really nobody was willirtg to say we ought to change. It's totally wrong. At least it was pointed in that direction that it appeared to be realistic. We presented also sort of a framework land use plan which is pretty consistent with what the Highway 5 corridor is coming up with and with what's there today as far as the background of land use. What seems to be reasonable while agreed to by the commi~. I don't think we have any problem. We really didn't have much difficulty until we got to the very end. When we began talking about the facilities themselves. The library. The post office. Seniors housing and those kinds of things and a community center, which maybe is just a bad term to be using but every time it's raised, well here's what happens Don. At the second town meeting the suggestion came from the group. I didn't make it up. You didn't make it up. It came from the group made out of 12 groups saying that a community center ought to be...an element in the city center. So I've been slruggling with this group and simply telling them that I don't have any Latitude to change that. The group told me that we should have a community center and that's the term that was predominantly used. There was a little bit I guess of misconstruing what I was saying because of the impression was that I was supporting the community center on the frontier site, which I was not. We agreed during the course of the evening to quit thinking about that...get rid of it. You tell me differently. I'll listen to you but for all intensive purposes, that one was resolved and probably will not, no longer pursue it. Otherwise direct us on the frontier site. I think here's the bottom line and I think it's a very legitimate thing on the part of the group. There arc lots of strong opinions there and I think there was a lot of good discussion taking pLace but to their credit, they were saying we need a little bit more information and what we need is to have at least some description of what these facilities would be. What their sizes would be and what the capabilities of the various sites that we talked about would be to accept them. And what we've done today is to prepare that background information. We'll be mailing that out to them tomorrow and so they should be able, we believe, on the 12th of April, which is another additional meeting which we want all of you to attend, if you can possibly do that. To reach agreement on facilities. The next focus group session is April 19th. We had hoped to have a general public meeting on I think May 4th...I mean the general public meeting after that Todd. Another week or two after a focus group session. So with that I fully expect that you will have some decisions in the very near term and something that can be recommended to thc larger group on thc 19th. 2O Housing and Redevdopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Boyle: You co~ted Fred about on the 19th was the committee meeting and then after that was a focus group meeting on what... (There was a tape change at this point in the discussion.) Chmiel: Is there any way that we can move something out from April into May7 Fred Hoisington: Which one are you having a problem with Don? Chmiel: The 19th. I think we have matings every ni~,,ht. Mason: Council has a couple meetings already with 3 nights. Chmiel: 3, there's 4 right now. There's 5. Gerhardt: ...but it is a Tuesday and it's not the Tuesday for the Pm'k and Rec. Mason: We've got at least 7 meetings that month. Chmiel: Yeah, and that doesn't count Council meetings. Mason: Or HRA. Gerhardt: I don't see any problem pushing this back into May. Move the 19th meeting into May? Fred Hoisington: I wouldn't see any problem with that Todd. If we could push it like the 3rd or 10th. Would that be a little more acceptable time? Gerhardt: Hopefully not the Tuesday after a Council meeting. Mason: Well it'd be May 3rd then. Om~l: We don't have a meet/ng on May 2nd. We have it on the 9th so. Mason: The 3rd would be better for Council. Oer~dt: Does that woflc for Jim and Gary7 Bohn: The 19th meeting would be on the 3rd of May7 21 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Gerhardt: We're not going to meet on the 19th. It would be May 3rd. Bohn: Yeah. The 19th meeting will be moved to the 3rd of May. Gerhardt: Right. Chrniel: So that's a 7:30 meeting? Bohn: 7:00 wasn't it? Gerhardt: 7:00. Mason: You know if I could, I'd make a comment more than a question. I think we need to understand, and I hope the people on Vision 2002, just like I'm not sure the people on the Highway 5 Task Force did understand. That it's all part of the process and recommendations come out but nothing's etched in stone. And I know from being on both sides of those kinds of committees, that you get pretty fired up in a group like that and you think, by God. This is what's going to happen but ultimately that committee doesn't have that authority. You know and I'm not directing any of this at you Fred. But I am already feeling some heat from the Highway :5 Task Force. You know they made one recommendation and Council essentially said, at this point we don't like it. And the way things are set up for city government and this, that and the other thing, I mean we've got to go through the process. They don't have to. And I just, I think maybe that's something that should be brought up from time to time. Fred Hoisington: Michael, we are bringing that up from time to time. It was brought up, especially in the ad hoc committee because we want to make sure that first of all the sense of the large group is what comes through...Don suggested there's going to be more to watch what was happening than provide some additional input. So I don't think they have any notion of...We'll have to remind, because we don't meet often in the bigger group...we're proces~g something through them but really you folks on the City Council have the ultimate responsibility. So we'll continue to remind them of that. Mason: Okay, and that's not to say we don't listen because I quite honestly I think we do but it's such a different position to be in. Just for what it's worth. Gerhardt: We're blaming Don for it. Mason: The Mayor? Well as long as you don't blame Council. 22 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Chmiel: No Ashwor& Mason: Oh Ashworth. Oh okay. Richard Wing: Here's the other...for instance the Highway 5. The facts are that Highway $, the northern route, was voted on by almost every single person on that commi~ including myself, I'm not aware of anybody that did not vote on the northern route, It wasn't a partial vote, It was almost unanimous, Mason: Oh Richard that's not true. Richard Wing: No, if you go back. h was almost a unanimous vo~ The only choice was where the crossovers occurred. That's where the disagreement occtnred. There wasn't a quarter of that group that went with thc southern mute. It was almost unanimous Mike, if we go back. Now that I've had a chance to go look back into it, it was almost a unanimous vote for the northern mute. But what happened is then all this work is done and all this input is done and we have to start to reinvent the wheel That's why I said let's get this thing through the Planning Commission because why reinvent the wheel there because it's got to go to Council. Well all this information on land use and zoning, etc, etc...back to Council so we can make a reasonable decision...at the Planning Conmfission one day and said well why would they do this, this and this. Well you haven't been at 15 meetings? How can you discuss it? We're kind of at that so anyway, to get away from that because that's invJevant. I ~ we'll have to discuss that. With your group now, that's done all this wozk and it's going to be carrying it back to the Council and HRA. How do we transmit all that work, all those ideas and not have to start it all over again and reinvent the wheel at the Council and the HRA level? It's really unfortunate that these decisions are made and they're sound decisions and then we just throw them, I mean we have l0 minutes to do what they dia over 3 or 4 meetings. Mason: But see therein lies the problem, h's not a decision. It's a recommendation. And I think. Richard Wing: But why was the recommendation made? Mason: And I think that's, I think you know we're talking here about some_ commmzication problems and I think, because those, none of those bodies are decision making bodies. They're recommendations. And maybe that's where some of that comes in. Boyle: Mike, I think that they realize that. I think the nd hoc committee and the task force in general, the focus groups excuse ~ stnrmt with the underslauding that they were Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 assembled to try to come up with some good ideas and recommendations to assist the City Council and HRA in how we develop it and getting more input. Mason: Gary, I'm not. I think maybe I'm getting taken, I'm not saying that people aren't thiob/ug that. I just want to make sure that people remember that. Because you start taking ownership because I know, like I said from being on the other side of that, you start taking ownership in something like that and it's like, what do you mean you're going to you know. And I just think we all need to be real up front about it I guess is what I'm saying and I don't, yeah. Chmiel: The same thing was brought up basically to Council too. Is that we're going to move ahead with everything we're talking about but we don't know how much that damn thing's going to cost us and that's one of the most important factors. That's what I brought up at Council. We've got to know what it is. I'm not going to move on anything and I'm going to say this is the way to go. I need some hard figures to come up with a conclusion. Richard Wing: But see we didn't even have enough figures to come up with a conclusion even for the south route... Chmiel: I know that. That's why I was asking. Richard Wing: And I'm not being at all cdt/cal. Mason: Right. No, I understand that. Richard Wing: You guys favored the south route all along but for other reasons I think...I wanted to just comment just as it pertains to what we're doing downtown here on this 18 months. When the Council went for 6 months to a year part of it is, and correct me if I'm not wrong here, if I'm fight or wrong here. But I think our reasoning on Russ' year was that we decided that land use was going to come to a halt. That there was a lot of pressure that night at Council. Half the people said we don't want the bar. We don't want it to move. And so we gave them 6 months to a year to really be fair but the problem was to close it out. We own it. Let's shut it down. Let's take it over. Let's get going on it. We didn't want to extend it out for an extended period of time. Based on that's the end of the liquor license for that location. That's what I remember kind of what happened. So then when it went to 18 months I say whoa. We own it. We want to shut it down. We want to get on. Even if we close it down and it's empty but we want to get on with it even though there's no decision. I'm appalled at what happened here and I would disagree with what you decided. But this library shown at this comer, this really intrigues me because I really strongly support the Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 HRA getting whoever, Mark Senn and some of the other people. What's his nmne, it doesn't matter. The civic center concept where the post office and city hall and lilmlry all create a community here and a central point rather than start spreading them out...it's a great spot for the library down there in a way with the designs and Jeff Farmnkes came in and said...but on the other hand, I sort of like _this concept with the civic center staying kind of close to downtown. And that means the library isn't across the sueet on the Market Square property. It's got to be a walkable. .. so I'm dying to see what this group comes up with and I don't know if that has been discussed with this group. That theory or concept of a, what's the word. Boyle: A city center. Richard Wing: A civic center...is there any direction for that? Boyle: Oh I _think it's very strong. C~rhardt: One stop government shopping. Fred Hoisington: I don't'think so. What we determined about the City Hall site is, that it does have limits and that you cannot put all the things on here. And that was one of the things that ad hoc committee needed to know because if everything could go here. Of course you could let everything in here but what we determined was, that you'd have to have a million 6 worth of underground parking in order to be able to accommodate it. You can't do much with a million 6 worth of underground parking except park in it. And so I think, and I don't want to put words in their mouths but I think we will resolve thaL The only concern I had is that the library may end up going down there on the Pony/Pauly/Pty'nnus. However, my feeling at this point is based on fumre...that it really needs to go here without question and we'll try to at least lay that out. Whether they accept it or not is a diffcn~t matter. Boyle: Well I feel very positive that the real purpose that the focus group and the ad hoc committee was formed was to get a group of citizens in the city of Ctumhassen together to give ideas. Recommendations. A lot of minds that show interest in the ~TmmuRity, to help. Again I repeat, to City Council and HRA, ideas on how to do it. And when it's done, at least it's not 5 or 6 or 10 people making the derision. You've got the majority out there all upset. You mighL You might come close to getting some agreement within the community as to what happens. Bohn: I don't think it's I-IRA's job to say where the post office or where anything goes. Boyle: Oh no. I agree. Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Chrniel: There for a while Gary, I was the guy who said, let's involve these people and I made that happen and a couple different times at the meetings I sat back and I sort of said, oh Sesus, what did I do this for. I really did. But yet it's still good because you're getting that input. Mason: That's what government is all about. Boyle: It's extremely frustrating but the botwm tine, when it's all over, I think we'll be glad we did it. Chmiel: Well that's the whole thing. Mason: And what the gentleman, what Councilman Wing is ~lidng about. About re/nventing the wheel. You know if nothing else, what Highway 5 does, what SWMP does, what Vision 2002 does, is it gets the ball rolling. You know at least it gets things off of dead center. Even if it just irritates the hell out of everybody, something comes out of it and then SO. Gerhardt: When I started introducing Fred, I mean I came out with some posifive...and you're going to get some rubbings in those things but the thing on the railroad and there were some really good ideas. I really liked it...There were some neat ideas of how to use the back side of the Dinner Theatre. You know people are starting to really envision that back side of the Dinner Theatre being an entertainment area. They're talking about movie theaters. They're talking about indoor playgrounds... Bohn: That's why I talked about the end of Pauly's lease because Vernelle's been wor~ng with Russ, trying to get Russ to move over there. Rk:hard Wing: Move where? Bohn: Behind the Dinner Theatre. Chmiel: Well thank you. Mason: ~ Fred. Bohn: Thank you. ,UPDATE ON MARKET SOUARE. 26 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Gerhardt: h got tabled. Mason: It was 12:30 when that one got tabled. Chmiel: It was only 1:00 when we finally got done. Mason: Oh it was 1:00 when we left and how many itrms did we still have left lo go? Chrniel: 5. It was a heavy agenda. Mason: Well there was a lot of imporlm~t stuff and it needed to happen but Wendy's wasn't getting talked about. Gerhardt: I do not think Council delayed that whole action...They had some real situations to talk about Byerly's sign took a little long. Mason: Far longer than it should have. Chrniel: Charlie talked too long. Oh sorry Charlie. Mason: No, we can't hang this one on Charlie. Gerhardt: But it's going back to City Council in 2 weeks as unfinished business and the agenda's being established that that i~n will be discussed. Mason: And it will be a real small and short ag~la. C_m'hardt: No. It's getting bigger. Everybody's saying I've got to be on it. I've got to be on it. I'm going oh boy. We'll see what gets deleted. Chmiel: Being that I have a big hand, I've got to really look at that thing v~ry closely for Monday night because I had some... Gerhardt: So this is only part of the planning report that went out. I took all the Minut~ and things like that It's just too thick to provide everything for you. If you want to come up to City Hall and I'll give you the whole file on it ff you want to review it any more but I thought it gave you a good feel for how ~hings have be~ going and the options that are available. So if you want... Bohn: We won't know anything about, until it comes back from City Council anyway. Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 UPDATE ON THE HANUS FACILITY ROOF~ Gerhardt: Staff received a phone call about 2-3 weeks ago from Gary Kirt. Prior to that I think Gary had talked to Fred and Tim Stefan regarding the detailed plans and wondering, can a roof really cost $50,000.00 or not. And after reviewing those and talking to a couple roofers and he realized that the best time to do that roof is now. He's in agreement with what the HRA has planned for this area and is willing to contribute $50,000.00 to the roof. Staff is recommending that you put the roof on. I think it helps us in the bidding of the project and they need a new roof. I have received a couple of complaints. We are now property managers of that facility and every tenant in there has a leak. Some have it really bad so that needs a new roof. Mason: Absentee landlords. Gerhardt: Well, I did it. I'm the new slum lord. I pushed them off. Boyle: Well ff he's willing to kick in $50,000.00 and we're estimating 50. Bids have not been put out I take it. We can put bids out and more than likely it will be in that neighborhood anyway, right? Or close. Gerhardt: Army... And the architect on this project is the guy that's in the newspaper today...the Mason: That's a neat deal. That's a slick deal. Boyle: Do we need a motion on this? Gerhardt: Ah yes. Chmiel: It looks like we have a recommendation yes. Gerhardt: ...we have that already. It's to include in the specifications the reroofing of the building. Chmiel: Yeah, as it reads here. Staff recommend the HRA direct staff to include re-roofing as part of the overall improvements in the Hanus facility with the condition that Gary Kin submit a check to the City of Chanhassen in the amount of $$0,000.00 no later than 2 weeks after the date of the HRA's approval. Boyle: I'd second that. 28 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Bohn: It's been moved and seconded. Discu~on. Chmiel moved, Boyle seconded that the URA direct staff to include re-roofing as part of the overall impFovements in the Hanus facility with the condition that Gary Kirt submit n check to the City of Chanhamen in the amount of $S0,(~.00 no later than 2 weeks after the date of the URA's approval All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously. CONSmER GIVING THE TENANTS OF THE PRYZMUS BUILDING NOTI/~E TQ VACATE THE BUILDING AND ASSET IN RELOCATION. Gerhardt: Another building that has a roof problem. Right now you have over there is an upper floor, a rental space that has four, one bedroom ap~ts. And below it you have one tenant, Mr. Black...well dig~ng consultant company and he had some very hnpormnt files in there on well specifications and he called me probably every other week about leaks in the buikiing and I've sent our custodian over there to look at it. He's afraid to go on the roof. He will not go on the roof alone because he's afraid that it would not ~ him_ And there are also some code violations as you can see from Mark Littfin's memo and those are ~nly fire cedes. Kirchman has, our building official has not provided an offi~ letter of building code violations. The tenants are aware that the liRA owns this building. They're aware that the lease runs up the end of May and they know that the time is shm't. Chmiel: There's no relocation costs involved with that is tim'e? Gerhardt: Yes. There is. Chmiel: All those in place Gerhardt: They're all in place. And we unfortunately did not get out of that and it's not like an individual business like Pauly's and Pony where you can include relocation as part of the acquisition. This was a rental bnilding and you have to deal with each of the rental ~umts on relocation and assist them in trying to find relocation mmeplace else with ~ or greater rent and pay for the/r moving expenses. Mason: We do have to pay for their moving ~t: Yes. 29 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Boyle: Within a certain radius or something. Gerhardt: Right. Bohn: The tenant that's on the main floor is, you said is a what? The tenant on the main floor is who? Gerhardt: Barchoff. I'm trying to think of. Jack. Jack Barchoff. Bohn: I thought that was an architectural firm in there the time we bought that building. Gerhardt: Insurance and. Bohn: Yeah, Schneid~'s out. Gerhardt: He's been there a long time. Richard Wing: Jim... Todd, just out of curiosity. Everything you've talked about tonight has been complex. Why hasn't staff recommended or HRA simply said, it's torch time? Te, m~ate the leases and level it. Clean it up and get out of there. I mean we have fire hazards and resident hazards and security in buildings and lease problems with trouble collecting rent...out of it. Why don't you simply level it and put some pine trees on the comer? Gerhardt: Well from the feedback I got from the HRA tonight is that you know, we prepare plans and specifications. If it's your wish to see those two buildings down, the Pony and Pryzmus buildings, you know we can still get good bids for demolition as soon as Mr. Kallestad moves out October 1. I mean we could be ia there October 2nd and get started with demolition of that entire area. Boyle: I think that's an excellent idea. I really do. I think I asked this before Todd but are they 3 separate buildings? Gerhardt: Yes. Boyle: Okay. If the Pryzmus building is vacated in 90 days, I ~ could, would it make sense, I mean that evidentally is unsafe. Could we move with demolitioning it first or would that leave. I guess that wouldn't make sense. It's got to be done, yeah. Both at the same time. 30 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Chmiel: Rather than taking one off. Mason: It sure would be nice on the 1st of October to have those bulldozers ready and you'd have it within a week right? Mason: You're quoted. Boyle: I heard a week. Gerhardt: But we could, October 2nd. If you wanted to do that, I'll start plans and specs and bidding. Boyle: Okay, we'll give you 10 days then. Bohn: If we have the people out of the Pryzmus building, what are we going to do to prevent somebody torching it7 Not on purpose necessm'ily but it's going to be a vacant building. (lerhardt: I'm sure the Fire I~partment's going to have some training in there so I would say, between now and the time we torch it. Or we won't torch it. We'll demo it but they're going to want to practice. They'll fill it up with artificial smoke and the guys will crawl around in there. I'm sure they'd love to play around in there. But we'll just secure it. We'll board up the windows and lock all the doors and watch it for the next 6 months. Boyle: I'd like to make a motion that the lIRA direct staff to prepare the necessary notices to all the tenants that they have 90 days to vacam the property and to assist with the relocation processes. And begin getting bids for demolition of the two buildings. Mason: Second. Bohn: It's been nxrved and seconded. Discussion. Mason: Well I just thinking rea] quickly that maybe flmre should be some kind of something in there about Mr. Kallestad. If he can get out of there before 6 months. Chmiel: I think we move that in the event that he does, yeah. Boyle: We could move faster than this. 31 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Boyle moved, Mason seconded that the HRA direct staff to prepare the necessary notices to ali the tenants of the Pryzmus building that they have 90 days to vacate the property and to assist with the relocation processes and to begin getting bids for demolition of the two buildings. All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously. APPROVAL OF BILLS. Chmiel moved, Mason seconded to approve the Housing and Redevelopment Authority account payables as presented. All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously. HRA PRESENTATIONS; Bohn: Request for park and trail dedication. Gerhardt: Mr. Ch~, 2 weeks ago I had discussion with Charlie James and he asked to be placed on the HRA agenda to request HRA assistance in helping offset the increase in park and trail dedication fees for 1992 to 1994. I have to apologize. I did overlook adding him to the agenda and I understand your policy in not taking action on items that are not on the agenda but in this case I really feel strongly that you are not setting a precedence. I mean I should have had him on there but that's your decision tonight As to Mr. James' request, over the past year, raw land values in Chanlaassen have gone up dramatically. With the expansion of the sewer and water, the MUSA area, and incorporating those lands west of downtown Chanhassen, we've seen a dramatic increase in developable land and the price of that. The City Council, recognizing this, took action to raise park and trail dedication fees to give us the capabilities to go in and buy parkland. The demands for parkland and trying to meet those in the community have been a long struggle of the City Council, particularly up in the Minnewashta area and also the installation of trails throughout Chanhassen. The demands for those dollars and what thc city receives is great So in recognition of those increases, the Council did substantially increase park and uail dedication fees. However, through our negotiations we never really took that into account with Mr. James. We gave information to Mr. ]'ames in '93 when he came in the past 8 months we've been working with him. He did his budget based on '93 park and trail dedication fees in hopes that he would have started grading in thc early part of December, November on his site and he would pull a building permit at that time. However circumstances and how he would construct his building wouldn't allow him to do that. And staff feels strongly that in our negotiations we did use the '93 benchmarks. I guess at this time I'd like to introduce Charlie James so he can give his insight on how he feels this process may have come about. Bohn: Mr. James. Charlie James: I guess I'm somewhat embarrassed to be here with my fin cup. I guess 32 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 basically we were a victim of a co-mmsition period in preparing our budget and negotiating our lease with Byerly's and putting our numbers together for the bank and so forth and so on. We called thc city last year and we got ali the info on what the gmm~ts were going to cost. What thc sac charges were going to be. What the wac charges were going to be and what all the development fees were going to be and we had all that out on a spread sheet. And we subsequently awarded the contract to Kraus Anderson and that's being, the conuact is being broken up between Kraus Anderson St. Paul Division and their West Division. And when they came in with the contract for me to sign they had all new numlx~ on that part of the contract and I said there had to be some mistake. I said that wasn't what had been represented to me. So I called the city and foond out that within a week or two of us getting approval that they had raised all these fees and we weren't told that they were eminent. And as I said, we had negotiated our lease and economic terms based on these old figures and so, I guess we're trying to seek a little more reba~ of the taxes we're going to be paying on this project for this siumfion. Gerhardt: In negotiations with everybody in this community, we've always said that, you know they always say well, is that tax increment. Are you going to pay for park and trail dedication fees and we've always said no. And I continue to believe that you would not be setting a precedence ff you should happen to grant Charlie his credit tonight. This is his one that, and we feel that the park and trail dedication fees as they're outlined, or the credit would be, but we feel that through our negotiations with Charlic, that he should receive some type of credit for this. It's just a matter of cirom~tauces that he was 2 weeks late in pulling up a building permit. Do not give him full crediL He's still going to pay $52,~.~.0.00 in pm'k and Uail dedication fees and all we're saying is that ff he did take advantage of thc increment coming off of his site to assist that overage. Charlie James: I guess just one other point that I forgot to mention. We're only talking here about Lot 4 and we don't have au issue with paying the new park and trail fees on whatever we bring in on Lots 1, 2 and 3, which constitute a little over 5 acres. So when that happens, we'U work those numbers into whatever our budget is at that time for whatever project we'll do. Gerhardt Well that's good because then... Boyle: I guess that leads to the question, is that the only alternative then? I mean is there another option of absorbing the $26220.00 di~ercnce? Gcflmrdc Charlic could pay it is the other option. Boyle: No, that wasn't what I was getting to. Rather than TIF...we go that direction. I mean Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 that's the most logical way. Chmieh You can't feel sorry for most of them but in this particular case, you know and I can understand some of these things that happen. The timeframe of it change and you put all your facts and figures down and it's going as a go project Gerhardt: What Gary's talking about, is there any other dollars out in the community or in other programs. The metro area just doesn't receive any of those. Chaska's filing for some... and it's unbelievable how much hoop jumping and politicking that you have to do for $100,000.00. I mean you're going to spend more than the benefit. Charlie James: I guess the other thing is that I will be writing thc check for $78,600.00 this year but we won't be getting, we'll be getting that money paid back in three installments starting in 1996 so I guess we're going to wait a while to get. Boyle: Oh I didn't understand that but, well this is kind of... Bolm: Mike. Mason: Well, I mean if. Well I don't know. I don't have any quibble at all with what Charlie is saying here. I mean I wonder what happens to somebody that, I nman if this were to happen to somebody building a deck, what would happen? Well on something that would be related to park dedication fees. Gerhardt: They would have to pay it, you know. And if all the increases on all the new lots as they come in...just like everybody else is going to increase the price of their lots to make up that overage you know. And if we don't grant Charlie the $26,000.00, Charlie will have to look at trying to make it up through rents against the little tenants. He's already negotiated the lease with Byerly's so the smaller tenants in the building will have to pick up those additional costs and put it back against the project. Boyle: You said the time frame, I mean a 2-3 weeks, whatever. I mean this is kind of, I have no problem at all with it. The $26,220.00 difference. I have no problem. With Charlie's request. As Mr. James' requested. Bohn: Don. Chrniel: Well I think I mentioned before. This is, he was working with us in good faith to move along. I'm not one to readily give up anything as far as the respective developers and builders within the community because that's part of the game. But unfortunately in this one, 34 Housing and Redevelopment Authadty - March 31, 1994 where you are just a short time over a 2 week period, it mslre-~ me sit back and think about why should this really take place, even though that permit was not issued. I don't have any real problem. I really don't. Charlie lames: Another thing Mr. Mayor, excuse me but I just want to say that the conditions of the permit were that we c~ the well. That we pmnp the septic'sysle~ and that I post a letter of cre~t I think it was for around ~[0,0(~.00 and I did all those things in November. We just. I did everything that was necessary. Chmiel: Except thc issuance of the b~ilttln§ permit which is, moving thc permit is the thing that...gets it goin§ and yeah, I had understood that you had done those things as well. Gerhardt: In most cases I mean, you know throughout the downtown, I m Charlie you know, we typically go in and demo the bnildings and cap the wells and we aid it over on Town Square and throughout the. The Hanus building. I mean there's several wells back there. The old Hanus building. Mason: Charlie, can I ask you a question? How important is this for you to have this wnight as opposed to next month? Well. Charlie lames: Oh okay. Well the reason we're here wnight is because the TIF a~reement is an agreement to our lease with Byerly's and that's han~g out there. And we need that so we can deliver the whole thing to the bank. That's a requisite before they'll fired that so I'm already person~y guaranteeing payrramt for sp~ constructional seal and things .that have had to be pre-o~ered but I haven't, but the bank isn't going to fund or reimburse me for those things until they've got this lease in their hands and I can't give them the lease because Exhibit F to the lease is the. Mason: Sure. Sure. Okay. Charlie James: So that's kind of why this all came about and what we need to do, I believe the mechanism is simply to increase the amount of. We're not creating an obligation- Is that right Todd? I ~ how does that work? It's, they inav, ase the amount on one thing but not the other and it doesn't ~ a binding obligation on the part of the city. It's just that it's there and the money will be paid, right? Mason: Well then okay. I guess I want to ~k the Chairm~ or Todd or whoever how we can work around the fact that this isn't on the agenda tonight. Gerhardt: The only thing that I can lead to it is that I forgot to put it on- He had made the Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 request to be on and he had talked to Don about it. That's the only thing I can come up Boyle: I think with that statement in the Minutes, it would probably preclude any future reu'ibufion to that. Don't you Don? Charlie James: I guess I did have, as soon as this issue came up in January, I did have immediate meetings with the staff and there were alternatives discussed and so forth and so on and it was decided that probably the liRA was the appropriaie venue for this. Gerhardt: If I could add one more thing. Our April meeting is not one that you're going to be taking action on. It's the goals session with Council. So I'm not scheduling any items for that so we're going to meet in April, you'll have to establish a special meeting time. If you would like to do that, you know if you want to meet again to do this one item. Otherwise he would have to wait until May. Bohn: Let's get it over with. Mason: Well that's fine. I guess I'm a little worried about some fallout. Gerhardt: Well I appreciate that. Sometimes when you put these under Visitor Presentations you get...feedback where you gentlemen are sitting on and it gives us some more time to think about these issues. So I can appreciate it. Boyle: I don't think we should hold Mr. James up because of an honest oversight. Bohn: Do I have a motion? Mason: I will move that the prior redevelopment agreement between liRA and Mr. James should be modified to reflect a $26,220.00 credit for park and ~rail dedication fees. Bohn: Second? Boyle: Second. Bohn: Discussion. Mason moved, Boyle seconded that the prior redevelopment agreement between HRA and Mr. James should be modified to reflect a $26~20.00 credit for park and trail dedication fees. Ali voted in favor and the motion carded unanimously. 36 Housing and Redevelopment Authority - March 31, 1994 Mason moved, Boyle seconded to adjourn the meeting.

If excess material can be obtained from work at the Hanus Building, it would be placed as a part of the embankment at no charge, thereby reducing the amount of borrow material reqtfized and the cost of constructing the embankment. Also, acceptance of the first proposal described in this letter would result in approximately 450 cubic yards of embankment material which would be placed at no charge, and the overall costs would be reduced. Acceptance of this proposal would expedite construction of the embankment at the north end of the pedestrian bridge and eliminate conflicts between construction at the I-Ianus site and the pedestrian bridge site.

As we have scheduled Bill Morrish and Barry Warner to be here on May 16, accelerating that item is not possible.
