ADMINISTRATION SERVICES
Deputy Director of Building and Community Standards Jesse Anderson introduced the item,
discussed the history, and stated the purpose of the proposed resolution to approve a loan
origination agreement with the Center for Energy and Environment and Loan Servicing
Agreement with Community Reinvestment Fund. He explained the City's Lot Interest Fix Up
Fund Program has been administered by the Greater Metropolitan Housing Corporation since it
began in 2011. However, the City has been notified that Greater Metropolitan Housing
Corporation (GMHC) is closing its Housing Resource Center and will no longer be able to
10/09/17 -1- DRAFT
administer the Program. He explained that staff has worked with Center for Energy and
Environment (CEE) to continue the Program and the cities of Crystal and Richfield are also
intending to transfer their Fix Up Fund Program from GMHC to CEE. Mr. Anderson described
the purpose of the Low Interest Fix Up Fund Program to buy down interest rates with Tax
Increment Financing (TIF) 3 Housing Funds, allowing homeowners to borrow up to $50,000 for
home improvement at 3%. He reviewed the Program activity since 2012 and stated the City has
allotted $25,000 annually to the Program and the Community Revitalization Fund provides a
match of the funds the City contributes.
Mr. Anderson described the Renew Loan Program that provided down payment assistance for
the purchase of vacant foreclosed properties to be owner occupied. This Program no longer
issues new forgivable loans; however, remaining loans continue to require administration of
these loans. Now that GMHC is closing the Housing Resource Center, the City would enter into
an agreement directly with the Community Reinvestment Fund (CRF) for administration of the
remaining Renew Loans. TIF 3 funds are used for this program and staff anticipates 2022 as the
last year that TIF 3 housing expenditures would occur.

Background:
5801 Ewing Avenue North was a vacant and foreclosed property acquired in 2011 through the

and is currently in the process of building on two additional Remove & Rebuild Lots (5315 and
5301 James Avenue North.)

includes the following components related to the EDA's sales of this vacant lot for an infill
development of a new single family residence:
• The purchase price is $25,000.
• The buyer agrees that it will construct a new single family dwelling on the Property,

(b)115% of the median income in the case of three or more persons household
Owner Occupants. The average median income for the seven-county
metropolitan area for 2017 is $86,600.

the property in the event the buyer does not carry out the obligations with respect to
the construction of the Minimum Improvements or abandons or substantially
suspends construction.

C.Promptly after substantial completion of the Minimum Improvements in
accordance with those provisions of the Agreement relating solely to the
obligations of the Buyer to construct such Minimum Improvements (including the
date for completion thereof), the Seller will furnish the Buyer with a Certificate of
Completion for such improvements. Such certification by the Seller shall be (and
it shall be so provided in the Deed and in the certification itself) a conclusive
determination of satisfaction and termination of the agreements and covenants in
this Agreement and in the Deed with respect to the obligations of the Buyer and
its successors and assigns, to construct the Minimum Improvements and the dates
for completion thereof.
The certificate provided for in this Section of this Agreement shall be in such
form as will enable it to be recorded in the proper office for the recordation of
deeds and other instruments pertaining to the Property. If the Seller shall refuse
or fail to provide any certification in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, the Seller shall, within 30 days after written request by the Buyer,
provide the Buyer with a written statement, indicating in adequate detail in what
respects the Buyer has failed to complete the Minimum Improvements in
accordance with the provisions of the Agreement, or is otherwise in default, and
what measures or acts it will be necessary, in the opinion of the Seller, for the
Buyer to take or perform in order to obtain such certification.
D.The Buyer represents and agrees that until issuance of the Certificate of Completion
for the Minimum Improvements:
(1)Except for any sale to an Owner Occupant, the Buyer has not made
or created and will not make or create or suffer to be made or created any total or
partial sale, assignment, conveyance, or lease, or any trust or power, or transfer in
any other mode or form of or with respect to this Agreement or the Property or
any part thereof or any interest therein, or any contract or agreement to do any of
the same, to any person or entity (collectively, a "Transfer"), without the prior
written approval of the Seller's Board of Commissioners. The term "Transfer"
does not include encumbrances made or granted by way of security for, and only
for, the purpose of obtaining construction, interim or permanent financing
necessary to enable the Buyer or any successor in interest to the Property, or any
part thereof, to construct the Minimum Improvements or component thereof.
(2)If the Buyer seeks to effect a Transfer to any person or entity other
than an Owner Occupant prior to issuance of the Certificate of Completion, the
Seller shall be entitled to require as conditions to such Transfer that:
(i) any proposed transferee shall have the qualifications and
financial responsibility, in the reasonable judgment of the Seller, necessary
4
509198v2 CBR BR305-117
and adequate to fulfill the obligations undertaken in this Agreement by the
Buyer as to the portion of the Property to be transferred;
(ii) Any proposed transferee, by instrument in writing
satisfactory to the Seller and in form recordable in the public land records
of Hennepin County, Minnesota, shall, for itself and its successors and
assigns, and expressly for the benefit of the Seller, have expressly
assumed all of the obligations of the Buyer under this Agreement as to the
portion of the Property to be transferred and agreed to be subject to all the
conditions and restrictions to which the Buyer is subject as to such
portion; provided, however, that the fact that any transferee of, or any
other successor in interest whatsoever to, the Property, or any part thereof,
shall not, for whatever reason, have assumed such obligations or so
agreed, and shall not (unless and only to the extent otherwise specifically
provided in this Agreement or agreed to in writing by the Seller) deprive
the Seller of any rights or remedies or controls with respect to the
Property, the Minimum Improvements or any part thereof or the
construction of the Minimum Improvements; it being the intent of the
parties as expressed in this Agreement that (to the fullest extent permitted
at law and in equity and excepting only in the manner and to the extent
specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement) no transfer of, or
change with respect to, ownership in the Property or any part thereof, or
any interest therein, however consummated or occurring, and whether
voluntary or involuntary, shall operate, legally, or practically, to deprive or
limit the Seller of or with respect to any rights or remedies on controls
provided in or resulting from this Agreement with respect to the Property
that the Seller would have had, had there been no such transfer or change.
In the absence of specific written agreement by the Seller to the contrary,
no such transfer or approval by the Seller thereof shall be deemed to
relieve the Buyer, or any other party bound in any way by this Agreement
or otherwise with respect to the Property, from any of its obligations with
respect thereto; and
(iii) Any and all instruments and other legal documents
involved in effecting the transfer of any interest in this Agreement or the
Property governed by this subsection D. shall be in a form reasonably
satisfactory to the Seller.
(3)If the conditions described in paragraph (2) above are satisfied,
then the Transfer will be approved and the Buyer shall be released from its
obligation under this Agreement as to the portion of the Property that is
transferred, assigned, or otherwise conveyed. The provisions of this paragraph (3)
apply to all subsequent transferors.
(4)Upon issuance of the Certificate of Completion, the Buyer may
Transfer the Property and/or the Buyer's rights and obligations under this Agreement
509198v2 CBR BR305-1 17
with respect to such Property without the prior written consent of the Seller, except
to the extent required under subsection F of this Section.
E.The Buyer, and its successors and assigns, agree that they (a) will use the
Minimum Improvements only as a single family dwelling, and in the case of an
Owner Occupant, will occupy the Property as a residence, (b) will not seek
exemption from real estate taxes on the Property under State law, and (c) will not
transfer or permit transfer of the Property to any entity whose ownership or
operation of the Property would result in the Property being exempt from real
estate taxes under State law (other than any portion thereof dedicated or conveyed
to the City of Brooklyn Center or Seller in accordance with this Agreement). The
covenants in this subsection run with the land, survive both delivery of the Deed and
issuance of the Certificate of Completion for the Minimum Improvements, and shall
remain in effect for 15 years after the Date of Closing.
F.The Buyer shall convey the Property (either before or after issuance of the
Certificate of Completion) to an Owner Occupant whose household income does not
exceed: (a) 100% of median income in the case of one or two person household
Owner Occupants; or (b) 115% of median income in the case of three or more
person household Owner Occupants. The term "median income" means the median
income in the seven-county metropolitan area, or the State as a whole, whichever is
greater, using income data available from the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency
as of the date of closing on sale to the Owner Occupant. Prior to closing on sale the
Property by Buyer to an Owner Occupant, Buyer shall:
(1)Notify the Seller in writing that the proposed Owner Occupant will meet
the income qualifications under this paragraph; and
(2)Submit to Seller evidence of Owner Occupant's income in a form
satisfactory to Seller, evidencing compliance with the income limits described
above. The covenant in this Section applies only to the first sale of the Property to
an Owner Occupant, and does not apply to any subsequent sale by an Owner
Occupant to any other person or party.
15. Revesting Title in Seller upon Happening of Event Subsequent to Conveyance to
Buyer. In the event that subsequent to conveyance of the Property or any part thereof to the
Buyer and prior to receipt by the Buyer of the Certificate of Completion for of the Minimum
Improvements, the Buyer, subject to Unavoidable Delays (as hereafter defined), fails to
carry out its obligations with respect to the construction of the Minimum Improvements
(including the nature and the date for the completion thereof), or abandons or substantially
suspends construction work, and any such failure, abandonment, or suspension shall not be
cured, ended, or remedied within 30 days after written demand from the Seller to the Buyer
to do so, then the Seller shall have the right to re-enter and take possession of the Property
and to terminate (and revest in the Seller) the estate conveyed by the Deed to the Buyer, it
being the intent of this provision, together with other provisions of the Agreement, that the
conveyance of the Property to the Buyer shall be made upon, and that the Deed shall contain
509198v2 CBR BR305-1 17
a condition subsequent to the effect that in the event of any default on the part of the Buyer
and failure on the part of the Buyer to remedy, end, or abrogate such default within the
period and in the manner stated in such subdivisions, the Seller at its option may declare a
termination in favor of the Seller of the title, and of all the rights and interests in and to the
Property conveyed to the Buyer, and that such title and all rights and interests of the Buyer,
and any assigns or successors in interest to and in the Property, shall revert to the Seller, but
only if the events stated in this Section have not been cured within the time periods provided
above.
For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "Unavoidable Delays" means delays beyond
the reasonable control of the Buyer as a result thereof which are the direct result of strikes,
other labor troubles, prolonged adverse weather or acts of God, fire or other casualty to the
Minimum Improvements, litigation commenced by third parties which, by injunction or
other similar judicial action, directly results in delays, or acts of any federal, state or local
governmental unit (other than the Seller in exercising its rights under this Agreement) which
directly results in delays. Unavoidable Delays shall not include delays in the Buyer's
obtaining of permits or governmental approvals necessary to enable construction of the
Minimum Improvements by the dates such construction is required under this section of this
Agreement.
16. Resale of Reacquired Property; Disposition of Proceeds. Upon the revesting in the Seller
of title to and/or possession of the Property or any part thereof as provided in Section 15, the
Seller shall apply the purchase price paid by the Buyer under Section 3 of this Agreement as
follows:
(a) First, to reimburse the Seller for all costs and expenses incurred by the Seller,
including but not limited to proportionate salaries of personnel, in connection with
the recapture, management, and resale of the Property or part thereof (but less any
income derived by the Seller from the Property or part thereof in connection with
such management); all taxes, assessments, and water and sewer charges with
respect to the Property or part thereof (or, in the event the Property is exempt
from taxation or assessment or such charge during the period of ownership thereof
by the Seller, an amount, if paid, equal to such taxes, assessments, or charges (as
determined by the Seller assessing official) as would have been payable if the
Property were not so exempt); any payments made or necessary to be made to
discharge any encumbrances or liens existing on the Property or part thereof at the
time of revesting of title thereto in the Seller or to discharge or prevent from
attaching or being made any subsequent encumbrances or liens due to obligations,
defaults or acts of the Buyer, its successors or transferees; any expenditures made
or obligations incurred with respect to the making or completion of the Minimum
Improvements or any part thereof on the Property or part thereof and any
amounts otherwise owing the Seller by the Buyer and its successor or transferee;
and
(b) Second, to reimburse the Buyer for the balance of the purchase price remaining
after the reimbursements specified in paragraph (a) above. Such reimbursement
VA
509198v2 CBR BR305-1 17

to the Property by the Buyer to the Seller.
17.Time is of the essence for all provisions of this contract.

mailed to the address shown at Section 1 above and, if mailed, are effective as of the date
of mailing.

20.Specific Performance. This Agreement may be specifically enforced by the parties,
provided that an action is brought within one year of the date of alleged breach of this
Agreement.
21.No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Seller or
Buyer is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and
every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given
under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay
or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such
right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power
may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.
22.No Merger of Representations, Warranties. All representations and warranties contained
in this Purchase Agreement shall not be merged into any instruments or conveyance
delivered at closing, and the parties shall be bound accordingly.
23. Recording. This Agreement shall be filed of record with the Hennepin County Registrar of
Titles. Buyer shall pay all recording costs.
509198v2 CBRBR3O5-117

written above.

restrictions and provisions of the Purchase and Redevelopment Agreement recorded herewith,
between the Grantor and Grantee, dated as of , 2017 (the "Agreement") and that
the Grantee shall not convey this Property, or any part thereof, except as permitted by the
Agreement until a certificate of completion releasing the Grantee from certain obligations of said
Agreement as to this Property or such part thereof then to be conveyed, has been placed of
record. This provision, however, shall in no way prevent the Grantee from mortgaging this
Property in order to obtain funds for the purchase of the Property hereby conveyed or for

Promptly after completion of the Minimum Improvements in accordance with the
provisions of the Agreement, the Grantor will furnish the Grantee with an appropriate instrument
so certifying. Such certification by the Grantor shall be (and it shall be so provided in the
certification itself) a conclusive determination of satisfaction and termination of the agreements
and covenants of the Agreement and of this Deed with respect to the obligation of the Grantee,
and its successors and assigns, to construct the Minimum Improvements and the dates for the
beginning and completion thereof. Such certification and such determination shall not constitute
evidence of compliance with or satisfaction of any obligation of the Grantee to any holder of a
mortgage, or any insurer of a mortgage, securing money loaned to finance the purchase of the
Property hereby conveyed or the Minimum Improvements, or any part thereof.
All certifications provided for herein shall be in such form as will enable them to be
recorded with the County Recorder, or Registrar of Titles, Hennepin County, Minnesota. If the
Grantor shall refuse or fail to provide any such certification in accordance with the provisions of
the Agreement and this Deed, the Grantor shall, within thirty (30) days after written request by
the Grantee, provide the Grantee with a written statement indicating in adequate detail in what
respects the Grantee has failed to complete the Minimum Improvements in accordance with the
provisions of the Agreement or is otherwise in default, and what measures or acts it will be
necessary, in the opinion of the Grantor, for the Grantee to take or perform in order to obtain
such certification.

of Sections 14 and 15 of the Agreement relating to the Grantor's right to re-enter and revest in
Grantor title to the Property under conditions specified therein, including but not limited to the
condition subsequent that the Grantee substantially complete construction of the Minimum
Improvements by November 30, 2018 and that the Grantee shall transfer or convey the Property
and Minimum Improvements thereon only in accordance with Sections 14D and 14F.
SECTION 3.
The Grantee agrees for itself and its successors and assigns to or of the Property or any
part thereof, hereinbefore described, that the Grantee and such successors and assigns shall
comply with Section 14E of the Agreement for a period of 15 years after the date hereof.
It is intended and agreed that the above and foregoing agreements and covenants shall be
covenants running with the land for the respective terms herein provided, and that they shall, in
any event, and without regard to technical classification or designation, legal or otherwise, and
except only as otherwise specifically provided in this Deed, be binding, to the fullest extent
permitted by law and equity for the benefit and in favor of, and enforceable by, the Grantor
against the Grantee, its successors and assigns, and every successor in interest to the Property, or

or any part thereof.
In amplification, and not in restriction of, the provisions of the preceding section, it is
intended and agreed that the Grantor shall be deemed a beneficiary of the agreements and
covenants provided herein, both for and in its own right, and also for the purposes of protecting
the interest of the community and the other parties, public or private, in whose favor or for
whose benefit these agreements and covenants have been provided. Such agreements and

agreements and covenants relate. The Grantor shall have the right, in the event of any breach of

actions or suits at law or in equity or other proper proceedings to enforce the curing of such
breach of agreement or covenant, to which it or any other beneficiaries of such agreement or
covenant may be entitled; provided that Grantor shall not have any right to re-enter the Property
or revest in the Grantor the estate conveyed by this Deed on grounds of Grantee's failure to
