APPROVAL: Tom Bublitz, Assistant EDA Coor inator MANAGER'S REVIEW/RECOMMENDATION: No comments to supplement this report . Comments below /attached SUMMARY EXPLANATION: (supplemental sheets attached Yes At the July 27, 1992 EDA meeting, the EDA Board authorized the staff to proceed with the acquisition of the single family property at 6601 Bryant Avenue North. A copy of the July 27, 1992 report on the condition of the property is included with this request form. The EDA board has received a copy of the appraisal report and review appraisal on the single family property located at 6601 Bryant Avenue North. Also included with this request form is a memorandum from the City Assessor regarding the estimated market rental rate of the property at 6601 Bryant Avenue North. Since the estimated rental rate for this property exceeds the Section 8 fair market rents, the EDA is exempt from the one - for -one housing replacement rule which requires that any affordable units demolished must be replaced on a one - for -one basis within a three year period from the demolition. CDBG funding is recommended for the acquisition and demolition of this property. Since the owner is deceased, there are no relocation expenses. The appraisal and review appraisal establish a value of $43,000.00 for the property. The resolution accompanying this request form would provide for an offer of $43,000.00 to the owner of the property. An estimated budget for acquisition and demolition of the property is shown by the following: Budget Items Estimated Cost Acquisition Cost $ 43,000.00 Appraisal Fee 475.00 is Demolition 6,000.00 Legal Costs 1,500.00 Closing Costs (including title transfer and prorated taxes) 1,500.00 Administration 100.00 Incidental Expenses (certified mail, messenger service, office supplies) 150.00 TOTAL: $ 53,625.00 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the resolution which would authorize staff to proceed with making an offer of just compensation and the negotiations for the acquisition of the property. • � 1 / Commissioner introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: EDA RESOLUTION NO.

He informed me the owner is deceased and the property is in an estate. The executor of the estate is located in Pennsylvania. On July 10, 1992, 1 viewed the house along with Mr. Perkins and Clay Larson, the City's Building Official. In the opinion of myself and the City Building Official, the house is in a substandard condition and should be considered for acquisition and demolition. The following is a brief summary of information on the single - family property at 6601 Bryant Avenue North. 1. The interior of the house is in relatively marginal condition. The ceilings show signs of deterioration, the enclosed porch area shows signs of leaking and the door shows signs of water damage. 2. The home is a slab on grade with a small crawl space and an uncapped well. 3. The furnace is a substandard unit built into a closet. 4. The general appearance of the interior of the house was poor with older, outdated appliances, cupboards, etc. 5. The best feature of the house was the aluminum siding, however, the home needs a new roof and soffit and fascia repair or replacement. 6. The house was built in 1947 and is relatively small at 796 square feet with one bedroom and a detached garage with a wooden floor. The positive features of the property are the large lot which is 132' x 133' (A acres), and its location across from Firehouse Park. Additionally, the other houses in the neighborhood are in substantially better condition than this house, so removing it would definitely improve the neighborhood. In addition to the information in this memorandum, I will be showing several slides at Monday's meeting. r RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends a Motion by the EDA to authorize staff to proceed with the acquisition of the property, including obtaining an appraisal of the property. V. f r L'i 0 Y f MEMORANDUM August 20, 1992 TO: Tom Bublitz Assistant EDA Coordinator FROM: Mark Parish City Assessor RE: Estimated Market Rental Rate 6601 Bryant Avenue North You recently requested an estimate of the fair market rental rate for this property. Because of the property's design with two rooms in series, I have analyzed the property both as a one bedroom and as a two bedroom home. Based on review of market levels and rental comparables, the following analyses are provided: One Bedroom Analysis A one bedroom home with an additional area for use as a den or other living space and a one car garage would be estimated to rent in the range of $400 - $550 per month. This rent would typically include sewer and water, but all other utilities including gas, electric, cable television, and telephone would be paid by the tenant. While the location and features of this home would be good as a one bedroom, its condition would hinder its marketability. Therefore, I would expect its rental rate to be in the upper one -half of the range, estimated in this situation at $500 per month. Utility costs above and beyond this rental would be $30.00 for gas heating, $10.00 for gas cooking and water heating, $22.00 for electric and 17.00 for trash collection for a total of $79.00. Therefore, my estimate of fair market rent including utilities would be $500.00 base rental, $79.00 for utilities, or $579.00 total. Two Bedroom Analysis If the subject property were to be considered a two bedroom home with a one car garage available for rental, the range indicated would be $500.00 - $650.00 per month. While location of the property remains good, its design in which the second bedroom is currently accessible only through the other bedroom area would hinder its marketability. Also, the current condition would have an adverse affect on marketability. Based on these factors, it is my estimate that the subject property would rent in the lower half of the range, estimated in this instance at $550.00 per month. Again, this rental rate would include sewer and water; however, other utilities would be above and beyond this rental rate. Utilities for two bedroom single family dwellings are estimated at $41.00 for gas /heating, $12.00 for gas cooking and water heating, $26.00 for electric and $17.00 for trash removal for a total of $96.00. Tom Bublitz 6601 Bryant Avenue North August 20, 1992 Page 2 Therefore, my estimate of fair market rent as a two bedroom home would be $550.00 in rent plus $96.00 in utilities or $646.00 total. I hope this approach both as a one bedroom and two bedroom is beneficial and acceptable given the design of this home.
