Agenda November 22, 1999
Issue Statement:
Report on the status of redevelopment activities by Richfield Senior Housing, Inc.
Background:
On October 18, 1999, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) accepted a
Contract for Private Redevelopment with Richfield Senior Housing, Inc (RSH). At that
meeting, the HRA also authorized condemnation of six properties in the area to be
developed by RSH.
Since that time, RSH has executed purchase agreements with the two homeowners for
which condemnation had been authorized. A representative of RSH has also reported
that they are confident that an agreement may be reached with the property owners of
two of the four commercial properties.
The purchase offers with residential property owners contained several contingencies.
On November 17, RSH formally satisfied or waived-all of the contingencies in those.
purchase agreements and provided the homeowners with non-refundable earnest_
money.
• Due to possible rate hikes just prior to and after January 1, due to the Y21C issue, bond
analysts have suggested that the bonds for the RSH development not be issued until
late January or early February. A representative of RSH has stated that, while they may
not have all of the funding in place, the homes can be purchased on January 18 as is
stated in their purchase agreements.
It has also been determined that the City of Richfield will be the bond issuer for the
funding necessary for RSH to purchase the property and construct their development......
Although the bonds will be issued by the City, they will be underwritten by Dougherty
Summit Securities (a -bond brokerage).
Recommended Motion:
At this time, HRA action is not being requested.
Discussion/Decision Mode:
A representative of Richfield Senior Housing, Inc. will be present to provide further
information if there are any additional items regarding the project's status.

Agenda November 22, 1999
Issue Statement:
Report of site assembly activities by Minnstar Builders within the Lyndale Gateway
development.
Background:
As part of their redevelopment efforts in the Lyndale Gateway area, Minnstar Builders
extended purchase offers to seven property owners in September 1999. These
properties are located on the east side of Garfield Avenue between 76th and 77th
Streets. All seven of these property owners have accepted purchase agreements.
Based on this 100 percent acceptance, Minnstar would not require the authorization of
condemnation activities by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA).
Minnstar's construction of their condominium development, however, is dependent on
the senior apartment and adjoining office development planned by Richfield Senior
Housing, Inc. (RSH). Staff and representatives of Minnstar have learned that the bond
financing which is necessary for the RSH development to occur will not be completely
resolved until February (Y2K will slow market response to bonds). These bonds are
necessary for the senior apartment development to occur. Representatives of Minnstar
have stated that the senior apartment development is vital to the success of their
proposed condominium project. They claim that without the senior apartments, the
condominiums would be an isolated and unmarketable development. For this reason,
Minnstar will not remove their contingencies until the RSH bonds are sold in February.
The purchase offers which Minnstar had executed contained contingencies which were
to be removed by November 22. These contingencies address the issues which need
to be resolved before Minnstar is certain that the project can go forward. Because the
RSH development will not be a certainty until February and because that development
is essential to the Minnstar condominium development, Minnstar Builders must
renegotiate their contracts with contingencies which will not be removed until RSH
receives their final funding in February.
This renegotiation of contracts may lead to one or more of the seven households who
had accepted purchase offers to reject a new purchase agreement with Minnstar
Builders, in which case Minnstar would request that the homes be acquired through
condemnation.
Recommended Motion:
Adopt a motion which:
1. Authorizes staff to begin preliminary condemnation activities for any property for
which .Minnstar Builders is unable to reach a negotiated purchase agreement; and
2. Authorizes staff to draft a resolution authorizing condemnation for such properties to
be considered at the January HRA meeting.
Basis of Recommendation:
1. The HRA has considered a Contract for Private Redevelopment (Contract) with
Minnstar Builders for the redevelopment of a portion of the Lyndale Gateway area.
2. The Contract provides for a request for condemnation by the developer(s) in order
to acquire properties for which private negotiations have been unsuccessful.
3. The HRA has the ability to acquire title to and possession of the property through
eminent domain in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 117.042.
4. Minnstar Builders has reached a purchase agreement with all the affected property
owners, but will need to amend those purchase agreements.
Alternative Recommendation:
Do not authorize staff to conduct preliminary condemnation activities or to draft a
resolution authorizing condemnation.
Discussion/Decision Mode:
A representative of Minnstar Builders will be present to discuss their efforts to
renegotiate the purchase agreements with the property owners and the need for
condemnation.

Agenda November 22, 1999
Issue Statement:
Consideration of a Contract for Private Redevelopment with Minnstar Builders for the
redevelopment of the east side of Garfield Avenue within the Lyndale Gateway
Redevelopment Area.
Background:
On January 19, 1999, the Richfield Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA)
accepted the terms and provisions of a Contract for Private Redevelopment (Contract)
with CSM Properties, Inc. (CSM) for the redevelopment of the entire Lyndale Gateway
area. Since that time, however, there have been several changes to the structure of the
redevelopment process. The developers and staff have concluded that these changes
are significant enough to warrant the drafting of new contracts to more accurately define
the redevelopment process to occur in this project.
The most significant change is that the project is to be completed by three different
entities, each having their own schedules and particular needs. A separate contract
with Richfield Senior Housing, Inc. (RSH) was approved by the HRA on October 18,
1999. This contract was specifically for the senior apartment and adjoining office
development planned for the east side of Lyndale Avenue and west side of Garfield
Avenue.
Minnstar Builders, a subsidiary of Ron Clark Construction, has proposed the
development of 40 condominium units on the east side of Garfield Avenue. This
proposal was first made in March 1999 as a means of providing a buffer between the
senior apartment/office development and the adjacent neighborhood. Since that time,
the HRA has accepted the concept plan for the condominium development and the
Planning Commission and City Council have approved the Final Development Plan and
Conditional Use Permit.. These approvals came after a great deal of community and
neighborhood input into the design of the condominium development.
The contract with Minnstar, which is being submitted for HRA consideration, is similar to
the contract which has been executed with Richfield Senior Housing. One of the
primary differences relates to the manner of providing public funding. The RSH
development is to be funded solely by the tax increment generated by the development,
while the condominiums planned by Minnstar would also be using Candlewood bond
proceeds. The type and amount of public funding were approved by the HRA on
September 13, 1999, and remains unchanged.
Another major difference in the contracts being proposed and the one which had been
approved by the HRA in January include the elimination of many of the "preconditions"
for redevelopment which have since been completed. Among the completed
preconditions are: The concept plan, interior circulation plans, and the form and
adoption of the tax increment financing plan.
Attached. is a draft proposed contract with Minnstar Builders. A final proposed contract
will be distributed prior to the HRA meeting and legal counsel will be prepared to
discuss the contract in greater detail. The proposed contract with CSM for the west side
of Lyndale Avenue will be considered early next year.
Recommended Motion:
Adopt a motion to approve the Contract for Private Redevelopment with Minhstar
Builders for the redevelopment of the east side of Garfield Avenue within the Lyndale
Gateway Redevelopment Area.
Basis of Recommendation:
1. The HRA accepted the terms contained in a Contract for Private Redevelopment
with CSM Properties, Inc. for the Lyndale Gateway Area on January 19, 1999.
2. On October 18, 1999, the HRA approved a separate contract for the senior
apartment and adjoining office portion of the Lyndale Gateway development.
3. The HRA has approved a Concept Plan for the development which includes a
condominium development on the east side of Garfield Avenue.
4. In addition to approval of the Concept Plan, the HRA has approved many aspects of
the development including the amount and type of public financing.
• 5. The condominium development has received City Council approval for its
Conditional Use Permit and Final Development Plan.
Alternative Recommendation:
1. Approve the contract with added stipulations or modifications.
2. Do not approve the proposed contract.
3. Delay action until a later HRA meeting.
Discussion/Decision Mode:
Legal staff and the potential developer will be present at the meeting to review the
documents and answer any questions.
