SUMMARY EXPLANATION: (supplemental sheets attached
The EDA has recently completed a market analysis of Brooklyn Center's housing stock and housing
needs. The study has been presented to the housing commission and to the planning commission. It
will be formally presented to the council very soon.
In order to address the problems and needs as identified in the study, the EDA needs to develop an
implementation plan. The plan needs to address the identified housing problems with courses of
action (programs), sources of revenue, and time frames.
I am proposing that the EDA enter into a contract with Publicorp, Inc. to do this work. The EDA
does not have available staff to take this project on at this time. Publicorp is a group well versed
in this area and would serve the EDA well. Attached you will find additional information and work
products from Publicorp. Also, Gene Ranieri from Publicorp will be available for questions.
The scope of the contract requires Publicorp to identify solutions to problems as noted in the
Maxfield report. They will work with the community to develop programs and prepare written
programs for EDA approval. Such programs will include cost projections and time lines. Finally,
Publicorp will meet with State and Federal officials to obtain support in the development and
implementation of programs.
The cost of the services is $20,000 with a projected completion date of January 15, 1990. The EDA
may terminate the contract with fifteen (15) days written notice.
The resolution before the EDA authorizes the execution of a contract for service with Publicorp and
transfers 20 000 from om the
EDA eneral fund t
g o the EDA professional services budget. Both Gene
Ranieri of Publicorp and myself will be available Monday evening to discuss this proposal in greater
• detail with you.

demand for leadership in the design and implementation of
innovative public finance tools which stimulate and control
economic development, particularly in light of continued federal

Publicorp personnel utilize a multi - disciplinary approach in order

is sufficiently flexible to help meet the objectives; assisting in
establishing accounting structures for management control;
assisting in evaluating development proposals by analyzing balance
sheets, cash flows and pro formas; assisting in negotiations with
developers; assisting in achieving federal and state legislation
conducive to development.
Publicorp serves as part of the team and serves its clients
much as a staff member with a commitment to the long -term
objectives of its clients. It becomes familiar with all concerns
including the existing political environment.
Publicorp also services in a long -term capacity to the
issuing client in bond transactions and relates each issuance in
terms of its affect on overall development objectives as it
participates in determining the financial feasibility of the

arrange a billing structure which meets the needs of a particular

5. Additional Services and Compensation The services
Issue: Owner Occupied : Maintained Housing
Several owner occupied homes located within the city are
being inadequately maintained. The housing unit is in need
of repair while the property can be unkept or cluttered with
litter. The building and property could impart the adjacent
properties and could be a hazard.
Actions:
1. Hazardous Building and Property Act
The city can implement the provisions of the hazardous
building act (MS 463:15 et seq). Under the act the city can
issue an order for the owner of the building to correct the
hazardous condition of the building. A 1989 amendment
permits the city to also issue an order to correct hazardous
conditions found on the property.
2. Neighborhood Volunteer Proiects
A deteriorating building or property could be occupied
by a person who could be uncapable of completing the repairs
because of his or her age, income or health. The city as
part of its housing maintenance program could identify homes
having such occupants and coordinate or encourage a city wide
"clean up - fix up" effort. The event could be an annual
event and could be part of similar metro wide efforts.
3. Deferred Loans or Grants
The city with local, private or federal resources (CDBG)
could establish a "fix up" fund. The fund could make
available resources to correct hazardous conditions, or
repair deferred maintenance items such as a roof replacement,
exterior painting or property clean up. The loan could be
for low interest or principal only and be repaid over time or
when the house is sold.
enumerated in Paragraph 1 can be expanded by mutual agreement
of the Firm and the City; provided, however, Firm shall not
be required to provide services as a cost in excess of that
set forth in Paragraph 4 above without the agreement on the

study.
7. Assignability. Firm shall not, in any way, assign
or transfer any of its rights or interests under this
Agreement in any way whatsoever without the prior consent of
the City. Further, Firm shall not assign any other person as
being primarily responsible for the delivery of services
hereunder, other than as provided for in Paragraph 2 above,
without the prior written consent of the Foundation
representatives referred to in that paragraph.
8. Termination of Services. The City may be giving
written notice, specifying the effective date thereof,

same to the Office of City Administrator as set forth above.
Firm shall be entitled to compensation for time expended by
