DATE: December 4, 2000
SUBJECT: Public Hearing Regarding Sale of Economic Development Authority (EDA) Owned
Property Located at Willow Lane and 252
At -=the October 9, 2000 Economic Development Authority (EDA) - meeting the EDA approved
Resolution No. 2000 -18 which:
► Authorized the EDA Executive Director to negotiate a purchase agreement for the sale of
the EDA owned property west of Willow Lane and east of Highway 252, to Eagle Crest
Northwest Inc.
► Authorized a public hearing for November 13, 2000 on the sale of the property to Eagle
Crest Northwest Inc. for the development of 21 single family detached townhomes.
The EDA opened the public hearing at its November 13, 2000 meeting and continued the hearing
to the December 11, 2000 meeting to allow additional time to complete the Development
Agreement for the sale of the property.
The following is a summary of information items and issues relative to the sale of the EDA owned
property at Willow Lane and 252.
► The property proposed for redevelopment is located east of 252 and is bounded by 66th
Avenue North on the north, Willow Lane on the east, 65th Avenue North on the south and
Highway 252 on the west. According to tax records, the site is comprised of four separate
parcels totaling approximately 4.49 acres, excluding the land area currently occupied by
the frontage road next to 252 which is approximately .63 acres. A map showing the
location of the proposed project is included with this memorandum. The development
proposed by Eagle Crest Northwest is for 21 single family detached townhomes. The
homes would be single level ramblers, which would be marketed to the 55 - 70 year old so
called "empty nester" market and would sell for between $170,000 and $200,000. Copies
of elevation drawings of the units along with a concept sketch plan of the proposed
development are included with this memorandum. Also included is a material specification
• sheet on the proposed homes.
MEMORANDUM
December 4, 2000
Page 2
► Zoning of the site is Cl commercial. For development of the site, as residential
townhomes, staff recommends a PUD using an R3 as the underlying zoning district for the
PUD. A summary of the ordinance requirements relative to the development are:
1. Re- zoning of the property from C 1 to Residential. The EDA can act as the
applicant for the re- zoning.
2. Vacation of the frontage road by ordinance. The EDA can act as applicant for the
vacation of the frontage road.
3: - Preliminary and final plat approval.
Two additional issues unique to this property and relating to the sale and development of the
property are as follows:
► The Premier Mechanical building, housing a mechanical contracting business and located
on the northwest corner of the development site, was demolished in 1996. The building
• was initially built as a gasoline service station. In the course of completing the demolition
of the Premier Mechanical building, two hydraulic hoists located in the old garage area of
the building, along with an oil and water separator which collected oil from the floor drain,
were removed as part of the demolition. The hoists and oil and water separator contents
were removed in accordance with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations and
approximately 110 gallons of oil and water were removed from the hoists and separator
trap and disposed of as per EPA guidelines. Soil samples were taken during demolition
and removal of the hoists and oil and water separator. A consulting engineering firm
collected soil samples that indicated the presence of diesel range organics (DRO) directly
beneath the removed oil and water separator. The contamination was not visible in the
excavated soil but was detected at 720 parts per million in laboratory analysis. The
amount of petroleum detected is not a regulated release as per Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency regulations and no regulatory actions were required. While no further remediation
action is required for the site, any disturbance of the impacted soils is regulated by the
state. Therefore, if any contamination is found during the course of development, the PCA
must be notified. Staff believes the presence of contamination is unlikely but if any is
found it must be remediated as per PCA requirements.
► The second issue also affects the Premier Mechanical property. In 1994, the EDA
received a grant from the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) in the amount of
$275,000 under the Community Rehabilitation Fund Program. Eligible uses of grant funds
• included, among other things acquisition and demolition. The EDA used the $275,000 in
grant funds to assist in the purchase of the Premier Mechanical building. Under the terms
• MEMORANDUM
December 4, 2000
Page 3
of the MHFA grant, the dollar amount of $275,000 had to be tied to a specific property.
Because of the timing of the deadline for expending grant funds, the EDA used the grant
funds to assist in the purchase of the Premier Mechanical property. One of the
requirements of the Community Rehabilitation Fund Program was that any housing units
constructed on the property purchased with Community Rehabilitation Funds could not be
sold to individuals or households with incomes over 115 % of median income as
determined by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. If we
look at the site occupied by the old Premier Mechanical Building, purchased with EDA
funds and grant funds, the site is approximately 1. 18 acres which represents 23 % of the
total 5.12 acre development site. Under the terms of the Community Rehabilitation Fund
Program, 23% ur 5 of the 21 single family townhouse units would have to be sold cc
households with gross incomes of no more than 115 % of area median income which, at the
present time is $78,890.
A Development Agreement by and between the Economic Development Authority and Eagle Crest
Northwest Inc. has been prepared for EDA consideration. A summary of the significant features
of the Development Agreement is as follows:
• 1. The Development Agreement addresses preliminary plans and construction plans
relative to the units to be constructed. The building elevations and building
materials specifications included with this memorandum constitute the preliminary
plans pursuant to the Development Agreement. The Preliminary plans are
acknowledged on the Resolution Approving the Development Agreement. The
only unresolved item in the building materials specifications is the type of window
to be used in the units. The resolution provides the EDA Executive Director
discretion in approving the specifications for the windows to be used in the
townhouse units. The construction plans constitute the building plans to be
submitted to the City's Building Official. The Development Agreement provides
for-review of the construction plans to assure compliance with the Development
Agreement and preliminary plans already submitted.
2. The closing on the property is set for 5 days following preliminary plat approval by
the City but is to be no later than May 1, 2001.
3. The purchase price of the property in the Development Agreement is $280,000.
Assessing Department staff has indicated the current year 2000 assessment of the
development property is $293,100. Assessing Department staff has also indicated
that the assessment considers the fact that the parcels are not assembled for
• development (i.e. platted) and that a current assessment of $1.50 per square foot is
an accurate reflection of market value for undeveloped raw land without utilities.
MEMORANDUM
December 4, 2000
Page 4
If the $1.50 /square foot cost is applied to the additional .63 acres obtained from the
roadway vacation, the total would be $334,540. Assessing Department staff has
also indicated that data from the market indicates that assemblage developments
such as the development property will sell at rates between 62C and $3.08 per
square foot.
Staff believes a sale price of $280,000 (based on 21 units) or $13,333 per lot if less
than 21 units is a fair price for the property and reflects a small decrease from the
$1.50 per square foot value due to the following:
• As per the MHFA Community Rehabilitation Fund Grant, the developer
will be required to comply with certain income requirements for purchasers
of a portion of the housing units.
• The EDA is requiring a specified quality of material to be included in the
finished home product including windows, siding and roofing materials.
• There is some potential for soil contamination on the site although existing
data would indicate it would likely be relatively minor if any.
• Because the development property has not been surveyed or platted, the developer
P P Pe rtY Y P p
is concerned that 21 units may not be realized from the final plat. Article III,
Section 3.5 of the Development Agreement establishes a unit price of $13,333. per
lot if 21 units could not be realized.
4. Vacation of the frontage road will be necessary to complete the development parcel
and, pursuant to the Development Agreement the EDA will request the City to
vacate the frontage road. This must be accomplished by ordinance. Additionally,
the zoning change required can also be initiated by the EDA.
5. The developer will be required to meet certain income requirements for the sale of
a portion of the housing sold pursuant to requirements of the Community
Rehabilitation Fund Grant received by the EDA and reflected in section 7.1 of the
Development Agreement.
Staff has prepared a Resolution Approving the Development Agreement with Eagle Crest
Northwest, for EDA consideration. Also, there are numerous documents listed in Exhibit F
Environmental Reports as an attachment to the Development Agreement. Due to the volume of
pages in these reports they are not included with the Development Agreement but copies will be
available in the Engineering Department prior to the December 11, meeting. It should also be
• noted a representative of Eagle Crest Northwest will be at the meeting.
