ITEM FOR HRA CONSIDERATION:
Consideration of a contract with TMS Construction for demolition at 7029 Nicollet Avenue.
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By Motion: Approve the attached contract with TMS Construction for
demolition at 7029 Nicollet Avenue.
II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In April, 2014 the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) acquired the
property at 7029 Nicollet Avenue. The HRA plans to demolish the existing
substandard structure and make the lot available for new home construction
through the Richfield Rediscovered Program. The house is currently vacant and
has been remediated. To reduce potential risks, holding costs, and negative
impacts to the surrounding neighborhood, the house should be demolished as soon
as possible
III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION
A. BACKGROUND �
• The property was acquired by ±he HRA in the spring of 2014. It was
qualified by a substandard ins�:�ection.
081814 Demolition Contract(7029 Nicollet).docx
• The 62-foot property is currently being marketed for sale through the
Richfield Rediscovered program.
• In July 2014 the HRA disseminated a Request for Quotes to eight
companies. Two responded with the following estimates:
o TMS Construction $10,900.
o PGM Construction Services $16,870.00
• Staff recommends the HRA approve the contract with TMS
Construction.
• TMS Construction received a positive recommendation from
Richfield's Public Works Department based on work completed on the
Richfield Parkway project.
B. POLICY
• The HRA has demonstrated success through its Richfield
Rediscovered Program in removing obsolete housing in poor condition
and developing new housing that meets the needs of today's
households.
• Historically, the HRA has demolished existing homes prior to selling the
properties.
C. CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES
• The house is currently vacant. To reduce potential risks, holding costs,
and negative impacts to the surrounding neighborhood, the house
should be demolished as soon as possible.
• The house will be made available to the Fire Department for training.
Demolition should begin shortly after the training exercises are
complete.
• The property is currently for sale through the Richfield Rediscovered
program.
• If the contract is approved, demolition will be completed by October
31, 2014.
D. FINANCIAL
• TMS Construction submitted the lowest bid at $10,900.00.
• There are funds available for the demolition in the Housing and
Redevelopment Fund,
E. LEGAL
• Legal counsel drafted, and recently updated the Contract for
Demolition.
IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION�S
• Do not approve the Contract for Demolition.
• Award the contract to another bidder.

A. BACKGROUND
• The Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) purchased 7225
1st Avenue in the fall of 2012 for $105,000.
• The existing home was abated and demolished in 2013.
• The property was a 100-foot wide double-lot, and was subsequently
subdivided into two fifty-foot lots. The subdivision was approved in the
fall of 2012.
• Endres Custom Homes bought and built a new single family home on
the south lot (7229 1st Avenue) in 2013 which sold for $356,000.
• The proposed home has a different design than the home that was
previously built at 7229 1st Avenue.
B. POLTCY
• The proposed project meets the objectives of the Richfield
Rediscovered Program:
o Removes substandard, functionally obsolete housing and
eliminates its blighting influence.
o Provides new, higher valued housing.
o Alleviates shortage of housing choice for families.
• The project meets fhe Housing Design and Site Development Criteria,
as defined in the Richfield Rediscovered Guidelines.
C. CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES
• The Contract requires the Builder to close on the property by October
1, 2014 and to complete construction by February 1, 2014.
• A provision has been added to all Richfield Rediscovered contracts
authorizing staff the ability to grant an e�ension to these deadlines for
a period up to six months.
D. FnvaNClaL
• The HRA acquired the 100-foot property and structure in 2012 for
$105,000.
• The appraised value of the subdivided property (50-foot lot) as a
vacant lot is $55,000.
• Under the terms of the Contract, the $55,000 will be due at closing.
• The Builder proposes to build the house to achieve MnGreen Path
certification. If the certification is obtained, the Builder will qualify for a
$5,000 credit.
• Under the terms of the Contract, the minimum market value of the
house will be $330,000.
• Under the terms of the Contract, the Builder must submit a $10,000
cash escrow to be held until construction is completed as provided in
the Contract.
E. LEGAL
• The HRA Attorney has reviewed the terms of the Contract for Private
Redevelopment.
• No public notification is required on this item; however, due to the
potential impact of construction activities, a courtesy notice was
issued to residents within 350 feet of the property.
IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S�
• Do not execute the Contract for Private Development.
• Amend the Contract for Private Development and direct staff to work with the
Builder to revise the proposal.
V. ATTACHMENTS

by the HRA. To maximize the development of a given lot, the HRA reserves the right to explore all
development options without obligating the HRA to support any specific proposal, idea or solicitation.
Housing design is a critical element of the program. Siding materials, exterior fa�ade presentation, roof,
window, siding and building line variability, finished landscape, interior space function and use are all
important issues of design to the HRA. The design requirements were created to ensure that the homes
built on the HRA-sold lots blend in with the surrounding neighborhood and respond to the specific
concerns of the HRA.

ITEM FOR HRA CONSIDERATION:
Consideration of a settlement of a Housing and Redevelopment Authority Deferred Loan at
7228 Aldrich Avenue.
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By Motion: Approve or deny a proposal made by the owner of 7228
Aldrich Avenue for a settlement of a $10,345 Deferred Loan in the
amount of $1,000.00.
II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 1994 Thomas Burgess, owner of 7228 Aldrich Avenue (Homeowner), received a
Deferred Loan for $10,345.13 to make improvements to his family's home. The
loan carries a 30-year term with no interests and no payments, and is due to be
forgiven February 2, 2024.
Due to financial and personal reasons, the Homeowner is attempting to sell the
property to avoid foreclosure. The first mortgage balance is $158, 674.28. Mr.
Burgess has received an offer to purchase the property for $140,000. After
satisfying the first mortgage, paying fees, commissions and closing costs, Mr.
Burgess is unable to repay all his debts. He is therefore requesting a settlement of
the Deferred Loan in the amount of $1,000.

III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION
A. BACKGROUND
• In 1994 the Homeowner received a Deferred Loan in the amount of
$10,345 in order to make necessary repairs to his home.
• The loan is deferred with no payments or interest, and is forgiven after
30 years. If the property is sold or transferred within the 30 year
period, the loan becomes due and payable.
• The loan is due to be forgiven on February 2, 2024.
• He has received an offer of$140,000 on the property after originally
� listing it for$220,000 in 2012.
• The current Hennepin County Estimated Market Value is $159,000.
• After paying off the first mortgage, fees and commissions, and closing
costs the settlement leaves the homeowner unable to wholly repay the
HRA's Deferred Loan.

........................
* Home Affordable Foreclosure Assistance (HAFA) is a governmental foreclosure
program that provides borrower relocation assistance (moving expenses). It only
applies to qualifying borrowers. Mr. Burgess'type of mortgage makes him
eligible.
B. POLICY
• The Deferred Loan Program provides loans to Homeowners earning
less than 80 percent of the Twin Cities Area Median Income (AMI) to
make repairs and improvements that address health, safety and/or
property maintenance items.
• The Deferred Loan Program is funded with federal Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. There is no federal
requirement that the money be repaid.
• The Mortgage Foreclosure Response Program Procedural Guidelines
state as follows: "Staff will consider short sale offers and negotiate as
high of repayment as possible. Action will be taken quickly so as to
not disrupt the short sale opportunity and cause the homeowner to
enter into foreclosure."
• The entire loan amount is normally due and payable if the property is
sold within the 30-year period, regardless of the number of years
remaining on the loan.
C. CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES
• The purchase agreement requires the Homeowner to receive short
sale approvals by September 1, 2014.
• If the HRA and the Homeowners cannot reach an agreement
regarding the payoff of the HRA mortgage, the Homeowner is in
danger of defaulting on the principal mortgage and being foreclosed
upon.
D. FINANCIAL
• Any repaid funds would be returned to the Deferred Loan Program.
• The attached letter from the Homeowner describes the financial and
personal difficulties he has encountered that have led to the need to
sell the home.
• The HRA has a subordinated position to the primary lender. If the
property is foreclosed by the lender, the HRA would likely receive
nothing.
• The Attorney for the Homeowner requested that $6,000 be repaid to
the HRA; however, the bank would authorize no more than $1,000.
As senior lienholder, the bank is under no obligation to approve any
repayment to the HRA.
• Neighborhoods in which there are one or more foreclosed and vacant
homes have detrimental impacts on the surrounding property values.
• The loan was funded with CDBG funds. The HRA established the
requirement that a borrower must repay the loan at the sale of the
property. There is no federal requirement to repay the funds.
• The HRA has received seven requests for a short sale settlement in
the past two years. The HRA agreed to the following settlements:
o $2,500 out of$25,000 (10%)
o $1,000 out of$1,577 (63%)
o $0 out of$8,249.95 (0%)
o $2,600 out of$26,000 (10%)
o $5,040 out of$10,080 (50%)
o $26,094.28 out of$30,000 (87%)
o $2,384 out of$15,892.34 (15%)
E. LEGAL
• Legal counsel has confirmed the HRA's authorization under a short sale.
• The HRA has the authority to negotiate a settlement or forgive the loan.
• The Deferred Loan Program is funded with federal Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) funds. There is no federal requirement that the money
be repaid.
IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION�S
• Deny the proposed settlement; however, the property will then likely go into
foreclosure and the HRA will receive no funds.

RE:Thomas Michael Burgess
7228 Aldrich Ave.S.
Richfield,MN 55423
, Dear Sir,Dear Madame,
I write to ask the City of Richfield Housing and Redevelopment Department for release of my
obligation to repay the full balance of the home rehabilitation loan in the event I resell before
thirly years of occupancy. I have lived in the property since 1978;however,I need to sell my
. property because I can no longer afford to live there due to the hardship of a divorce,excessive
• debt,and retirement(fixed social security income). P(ease release the(ien and waive the
deficiency so tha.t I can close the short sale of my home.
After several decades of marriage,my wife and i fmalized a divorce proceeding in 2009.My
wife moved out,and I alane am responsible for the home under the divorce decree.In the
course of the divorce we were forced to support two households and assume thousands of
dollars in attorney's fees and legal costs in addition to our existing consumer debt. As a retired
person living on a fixed income,I can no longer meet my debt obligations though I have
struggled hard to do so.
It has been my life-long policy to honor my debts,but I simply cannot do that under the
current conditions. Accordingly,I am taking measures to preserve the home and market it in
hopes of obtaining the best offer possible so that the lenders will settle for less than the full
repayment and waive their respective deficiency rights.
Should you have questions or additional requests,please direct all communication to my
attorney,Aklilu Dunlap.His number is below.
T'hank you.

ITEM FOR HRA CONSIDERATION:
Consideration of resolutions approving proposed property tax levy for payable 2015 for
certification to Hennepin County.
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By Motion: Adopt the attached resolutions approving the 2015
Proposed Housing and Redevelopment Authority Budget and Tax
Levy and 2014 Revised Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Bud et.
II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The bylaws of the Richfield Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) require
that an annual budget be submitted to the HRA Commissioners for approval.
Accordingly, the 2015 Proposed Budget and Tax Levy and 2014 Revised Budget
are presented for approval.
In addition, Minnesota State Statutes require adoption of a preliminary tax levy from
each taxing authority. The proposed tax levy must be certified to the Hennepin
County Auditor by September 15, 2014. Any amendments to the proposed budget,
which would increase the property tax levy, must be made prior to September 15,
2014. No increases in the tax levy are permissible after that date, only reductions.
Final certification of the HRA tax levy is part of the City's budget process.
The tax levy as proposed is the maximum levy established by law and represents a
.66% decrease from the previous year's levy.
III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION
A. BACKGROUND
• N/A
B. POLICY
• Minnesota Statutes require adoption of a preliminary levy from each
taxing authority.
• The budget and accompanying proposed levy for 2015 are ready for
consideration.
• Even though a public hearing for the HRA tax levy is not required by
State Statute, this does not preclude the HRA from opening this item
up for public discussion if the HRA desires to do so.
C. CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES
• As required by State Statutes, each taxing authority must certify its
proposed tax levy for the payable year 2015 to the County Auditor on
or before September 15, 2014.
D. FINANCIAL
. The Proposed 2015 HRA levy represents a .66% decrease from the
previous year's levy.
• The levy as proposed is for the maximum levy established by law of
the .0185% of the City's total taxable market value net of the market
value exclusion.
E. LEGAL
• N/A
IV. ALTERNATNE RECOMMENDATION(S�
. The HRA could adopt a preliminary levy less than the one proposed herein.
However, that would not provide for programs that are recommended in the
2015 Proposed/2014 Revised budget.
V. ATTACHMENTS
. Resolution Approving Proposed 2015 Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Budget and Certifying the 2015 Tax Levy
. Resolution Authorizing Revision of the 2014 Budget of the Housing and
Redevelopment Authority of Richfield
VI. PRINCIPAL PARTIES EXPECTED AT MEETING
