Background: The EDA is conducting a Public Hearing on August 27, 2015 to consider the transfer and conveyance of a property owned by the EDA to the City of Brooklyn Center for use in a land exchange for a public trail. The EDA owned property is currently a vacant lot located at 3401 53rd Ave N, adjacent to Lake Pointe Apartments. The land exchange to create a public trail would be with Lake Point Properties LLC, the owner of Lake Pointe Apartments. On August 10, 2015, the EDA called for a Public Hearing, and the Public Notice was published in the official newspaper on August 13, 2015. A summary of the steps required to execute the land exchange is: • EDA conduct a Public Hearing and approve a resolution authorizing a Land Exchange Agreement and conveyance of the Subject Property to City. (Consideration on 08/24/2015) • City Council approved an Ordinance approving the Land Exchange Agreement and authorizing the conveyance of the Subject Property to Lake Point Apartments LLC in exchange for a Trail.

(First reading conducted on 7/13/2015, Public Hearing and second reading completed on 07/27/2015.) • All parties sign the Land Exchange Agreement, setting out the details of the exchange. • Thirty days after publication of the ordinance, the closing of the exchange of the Subject Property deed to Lake Point Apartments LLC and for a Trail executed by the City and Lake Point Apartments, LLC will occur on or shortly after 08/28/2015.
