Update on the Second Phase of the Medical Art's Project
At our last meeting, staff requested additional time to meet with the Medical Arts Partnership
to discuss the terms of the private redevelopme~..'agreement. Staff met with the partnership
on July 7, 1994 to discuss the future developm~ (_ .of Phase H and a general understanding of
the terms of the Private Redevelopment A_ .~~ The results of our meeting were very
amiable on both sides and came to the folloW§ c~.__ lusion with the parmership:
1. Chanhassen Medical Arts Limi~l ~p~ exercised its option to purchase on
June 23, 1994. Thus they must cl~_~ on the ~ no law than June 22, 1995
based on the existing agreemcnt..~}r
2. The Partnership would have..~oi~e year from the

That the new facility be completed by January 1, 1995. If not completed, the
partnership waives its right to be assessed for $15,000 for taxes payable in
1996 and if the building is not completed by January 1, 1996, the partnership
again waives its right to be assessed an additional $15,000 for taxes payable in
1997. If the facility is not constructed by June 22, 1996, the agreement would
be void.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the HRA modify the private redevelopment agreement to include the
conditions as listed above and direct the HRA attorney to prepare the necessary documents.

Vision 2002 Ad Hoc Committee
Meeting Minutes
7-11-94
The Ad Hoc Vision 2002 Committee met for the seventh time on Thursday, July 7,
1994, to review the first draft of the Vision 2002 Newsletter. Members of the Ad Hoc
Committee present are included on the attached attendance sheet.
The following comments were made relative to the Newsletter:
· The graphics do not read well.
· The dates of photos should be identified.
· Herb Bloomberg and Russ Pauly may have old street view and aerial photos.
· Icons that should be used to identify the character of downtown may include St.
Hubert's Church, Medical Arts Building, the Riviera, Market Square, Country
Suites and Target.
· Use some other part of the Dinner Theater for identification.
· Consider a view from the west showing rooflines.
· The bank should also be considered as an icon.
· A question was asked "what do we hope the newsletter will accomplish?" It was
explained that the City would like maximum coverage and understanding of the
Vision 2002 Plan as possible. It is, therefore, intending to send the Newsletter to
every household in the City and follow it up with a telephone survey to sample
public opinion about the Plan. '
· It was suggested that a response card be included with the Newsletter to allow
anyone who wishes to respond. It was suggested that the response be very
simple to encourage use of the card.
· It was suggested that a note be included to "please read and save the Newsletter."
· The process illustration should have the word "process" above it.
· There should be a statement under the finance section that says "things won't be
built unless there is money to pay for them."
· It was suggested that the City Council and Planning Commission temper the
public's reaction to Vision 2002 proposals. In other words, in addition to public
participation, the experts views should be considered.
· Maps should have street names.
· A comment should be included that the Plan is not cast in concrete but will take
many years to accomplish.
· Only groups who have participated in the process, not individuals, should be
included under the credits section.
· There should be more clarification as to what is existing and what is proposed on
the concept plan.
· There should also be a description or definition of "concept plan" and what it
means.
· Some further clarification of ~e landscaping intent should be included to
suggest that it is not intended to block views to retail.
· There should be some modification of the design guideline which deals with
having front-doors on the street.
· Extraordinary standards relating to historic preservation should be included
along with a description for the Pony/Pauly/Pri~.rnus or historic district site.
· There should be a statement which indicates that the Plan can still change and
that it has not already bccn adopted by the City.
· Under funding there should be some provided for historic preservation.
Fred Hoisington indicated that he had received a call from Joe Betz earlier in the day
expressing the following concerns:
· There is still confusion in the use of terms including "Center", "Downtown",
"Community Center", "City Commons", "City Center", "Downtown District".
· Joe indicated that it might be appropriate to expand the use of City Commons to
the entire downtown.
· He furthered suggested that after the next edit the newsletter be reviewed by
objective third parties before it is actually put into use.
· He furthered suggested that only groups, not individuals, be credited with
involvement in the process.
A tentative schedule was discussed calling for the City Council to review a
newsletter draft on August 16, 1994 and, thereafter, the document would be printed
and mailed. The community survey, by Decision Resources, will be completed in
September.
Though July 28 was considered as the next meeting date for the Ad Hoc Committee
it would seem more appropriate to have such a meeting on August 4 to allow one
additional week for the document to be mailed to Ad Hoc Members to review before
meeting. Unless there is a major concern, the next meeting date will ]~ Thur~lay,
August 4, 1994 at 7:00 p.m. at City Hall.
Meeting adjourned at 8:40 p.m.
