McCauley City Manager Date: July 23, 2003 Re: Potential Development along 69 & 252 Attached are materials relating to a request from David G. Evanson to have the City acquire excess right of way from MnDOT for inclusion in a potential residential development. This property is an area that has previously been identified as having potential for the creation of a new residential development. It is my understanding that Mr. Evanson has acquired or has the rights to acquire some of the other properties q g q p p necessary to create a development. Acquiring the land from MnDOT would probably make sense even if we were not ultimately able to enter into a satisfactory agreement with Mr. Evanson. The request of the City Council is to authorize commencing he process with MnDOT to purchase the g p p • property, including performing a survey and appraisal and to negotiate with Mr. Evanson to determine if an appropriate development agreement could be developed for Council consideration. Funding for these activities would come from the EDA. 1 0 01 Shingle Creek Parkway Recreation and Community Center Phone &TDD Number Brooklyn Center, MN 55430 -2199 (763) 569 -3400 City Hall & TDD Number (763) 569 -3300 FAX (763) 569 -3434 FAX (763) 569 -3494 www.cityofbrooklyncenter.org MEMORANDUM TO: Michael McCauley, City Manager FROM: Brad Hoffinan, Community Development Director DATE: July 11, 2003 SUBJECT: Residential Development Over the past few months, Community Development has had conversations with David Evanson about the potential residential development of vacant property that he owns in Brooklyn Center. The property is located easterly of 68 and Aldrich. (See attached map). In addition to his property, he is in discussions with MnDOT to acquire excess property from the 252 project that is adjacent to his property. The process for transferring excess right of way requires that the City act as a transfer • agent. To start the process, the City would write a letter to MnDOT expressing our desire to purchase the property. The request is then reviewed by MnDOT and sold to the City at the appraised value. In turn, the City would then sell the property to Mr. Evanson. Mr. Evanson in the attached letter is requesting our assistance with the acquisition. Mr. Evanson will incur all costs associated with the acquisition and transfer of the property. His development has the potential for an estimated 20 single- family homes. Mr. Evanson has also expressed interest in a parcel owned by the EDA on 69 Avenue that is adjacent to the MnDOT property. At the direction of the Council, staff is prepared to work with Mr. Evanson and MnDOT to facilitate the purchase and development of this site. • Eastbrook Properties, LLC David G.
