APPROVAL: Tom Bublitz, Assistant EDA Coordinator MANAGER'S REVIEW/RECOMNffiNDATION: e !o am - " 64Z 1; • No comments to supplement this report . Comments below /attached SUMMARY EXPLANATION: (supplemental sheets attached )Les EDA Resolution 92 -30 authorized EDA staff to make an offer of up to $38,000 for the single family property at 419 69th Avenue North. The acquisition would be undertaken as part of the EDA's Scattered Site Acquisition program. The owner of the property, Mr. Eugene Bevers, has agreed to the offer of $38,000. I have met with Mr. Bevers and finalized the purchased agreement included with this request form. If the EDA approves the attached resolution and purchase agreement, I will set up a closing on the property. This acquisition is being undertaken as a voluntary acquisition and Mr. Bevers will be required to formally waive any relocation benefits. The budget allocations for scattered site acquisitions have been completely expended from Year XVII of the CDBG program and from the 1992 EDA budget. There are, however, funds remaining in the 1992 EDA Rental to Owner program. Over the past few months, I have been working with Thompson Associates to design the Rental to Owner program. We have encountered some problems with State statutes in designing the financial incentives for this program. I believe we now have resolved these issues with State law, but from a timing perspective I believe it is best to begin the Rental to Owner program in the spring of 1993. As a result, we have available funds in the Rental to Owner program for 1992 which will not be expended in 1992. Staff is recommending the transfer of funds from the Rental to Owner program from the EDA Scattered Site program to provide for the acquisition of 419 69th Avenue North. This transfer of funds is indicated in the resolution included with this request form. • RECOMMENDATIONS Staff recommends approval of Resolution Authorizing Execution of Purchase Agreement for the Acquisition of 419 69th Avenue North in Brooklyn Center and Authorizing Payment for Acquisition Costs. Commissioner introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: EDA RESOLUTION NO. RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR THE ACQUISITION OF 419 69TH AVENUE NORTH IN BROOKLYN CENTER AND AUTHORIZING PAYMENT FOR ACQUISITION COSTS WHEREAS, on August 10, 1992, the Brooklyn Center Economic Development Authority approved Resolution 92 -30, Resolution Authorizing the Acquisition of Certain Real Property Within the City of Brooklyn Center and Establishing Offer of Just Compensation for Said Property Located at 419 69th Avenue North in Brooklyn Center; and WHEREAS, Resolution 92 -30 established the fair market value of the real property located at 419 69th Avenue North and authorized the Economic Development Authority staff to make a written offer within the market value range of $32,000 to $38,000 to the owner of the real property at 419 69th Avenue North for the acquisition of the property; and WHEREAS, the owner of the real property described in Resolution 92 -30 has accepted the Economic Development Authority's offer of just compensation and has agreed to execute a purchase agreement for the acquisition of the real property; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Brooklyn Center Economic Development Authority that: 1.
