Re saran development
Nawrocki referred to discussion at the last meeting dealing with the Sarna development and stated
he had commented at the meeting of a conflict of interest with the Barna Guzy Law firm as our
firm and representing the Sara development. He stated that he also commented that the City
Manager was representing the developer more than he thought the Manager should. Nawrocki
stated that the Manager shouted that he was out of order sir, I hold you personally responsible for
your statement, you will talk to my attorney, and how dare you. Nawrocki stated that he was not
allowed to finish expressing his opinion as to how the matter was being handled and the minutes
should reflect the interruption.
Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Diehm, to approve the minutes ofthe June 12,2006 regular
City Council meeting. Upon vote: All Ayes. Motion carried.
2. Accept proposal from SEH for a Utility Rate Study removed
Nawrocki stated that just a couple of years ago we did a five year study for $28,000; now two
years later you want $9,000 for the same consultant to review his work. We should save the money
and review the fees ourselves.
Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Diehm to accept the proposal from SEH for a Utility Rate Study
Update based upon their proposal dated February 28,2006, in an amount not-to-exceed $9,100;
and, furthermore, to authorize the Mayor and City manager to enter into an agreement for the
same. Upon vote: Kelzenberg, aye; Diehm, aye; Nawrocki, nay; Peterson, aye. 3 ayes - 1 nay.
Motion carried.
3. Accept proposal from Bolton and Menk Professional Services Agreement for Engineer Inspection
Nawrocki stated this was not part of the budget, and is concerned that we are not looking for cost
effective ways to do business. He indicated there are ways to get more cost effective service such
as hiring a part time retired inspector, referring to the retired New Brighton Public Service
Director.
Diehm stated this is not a long term solution. We will only use them as long as we need to, which
will not pay benefits and not put projects on hold while we fill the position.
Kelzenberg listed the funding areas this would come from. Hansen stated there are State aid
projects that will fund the majority of this position with only a small part being administrative
work funding. A position has not been filled since the end of May, which has saved funds that will
be used.

carried.
7. Adopt Resolution No. 2006-78. being a Resolution authorizing a Joint Powers Agreement with the
City of Rogers for the Cooperative purchase of Athletic Field Lighting for Prestemon Park
Hansen stated there was a cooperative bid in 2004 by the City of Rodgers, on a state wide basis,
for cities and school districts for lighting. That Joint Powers Agreement expires at the end of
August.
Nawrocki spoke against it, stating it is a $60,000 contract, with $15,000 to $20,000 for electric
work that is not in the budget. There are other considerations that will need funding like the
pedestrian bridge that would require $1 to $1.5 million local dollars. Local government aid is
expected to be $300,000 less than last year. Last year we drew down our reserves and placed $4
million in a possible community center fund. We can not continue to spend without looking at the
budgetary consequences.
Diehm asked Hansen where the money would come form. Hansen stated it will come from the
881 fund; recreation projects. Nawrocki stated that those accumulated funds were donated to help
pay for program fees for families that could not afford them, but instead they used tax dollars for
this, so this fund built up. With the potential problems in next year's budget, that money might
well serve a better purpose used for recreation programs.
Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Diehm, to waive the reading of Resolution No. 2006-78, there
being ample copies available to the public. Upon vote: All ayes. Motion carried.
Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Diehm, to adopt Resolution No. 2006-78, being a Resolution
authorizing the City of Columbia Heights to enter into a Joint Powers Agreement with the City of
Rogers for bidding of various athletic field lighting within the State of Minnesota.
Diehm stated that the decision to do this was made at a previous Council meeting. The only
decision tonight was to save money by participating in a Joint Powers Agreement.
Upon vote: Kelzenberg, aye; Diehm, aye; Nawrocki, nay; Peterson, aye. 3 ayes - 1 nay. Motion
carried.
Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Diehm, to authorize the purchase of athletic field lighting for
Prestemon Park in the amount not-to-exceed $62,918 from the Rogers Multi-City Joint Powers
Agreement. Upon vote: Kelzenberg, aye; Diehm, aye; Nawrocki, nay; Peterson, aye. 3 ayes -1 nay.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. Adopt Ordinance No. 1509, being an Ordinance pertaining to Chapter 2, Section 7 of the City Charter,
"Form of Government".
Jim Johnson, 4216 7th Street, Charter Commission member, stated that with a ward system the city
would enjoy a wider diversity. One counci1member that was running told him that he did not campaign
in apartments because they don't vote. He indicated that the representative would stop to visit, or be
more involved if they lived in their area. The difference in this system is there would be the Mayor and
two members representing the city at large. This should not be considered detrimental, but with the
city's best interests in mind.
Joann Student, 1615 49th Avenue, asked if the wards and additional councilmembers could be split on
the ballot. Peterson stated this was asked at a work session and the Charter President stated they were
being presented together. Jim Hoeft, City Attorney, stated the items could be separate, but it was
discussed and it was the decision of the Charter Commission that it would be an "all or nothing"
proposal.
Nawrocki stated this would add $35,000 to the budget. He referred to the Krock funds available to the
Salvation Army, which caused a dispute between Northeast and North Minneapolis Wards, with the
funds finally going to St. Paul. People he spoke to like that they can call any representative on the
council to talk to them.
Joe Sturdevant Sr., 4848 7th Street NE, stated this would only be an advantage to the city. He stated his
belief that Councilmembers receive $7,500 per year, so it would only be an additional $16,000 per
year, with the only other cost being retirement funding, as most members already have health
insurance. Sturdevant stated that knowing someone makes it easier to go to him or her. He encouraged
adoption of the ordinance so it would not have to go to a vote of the people.
Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Diehm, to close the hearing and waive the reading of Ordinance
No. 1509, an ordinance pertaining to Chapter 2, Section 7 of the City Charter, "Form of Govemment",
there being ample copies available to the public. Upon vote: All Ayes. Motion carried.
Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Diehm, to adopt Ordinance No. 1509, an ordinance pertaining to
Chapter 2, Section 7 of the City Charter, "Form of Government".
Diehm stated this would require a unanimous vote to be approved. Peterson stated that a mini vote
would give an indication. Nawrocki asked if Councilmembers Williams was expected tonight.
Peterson stated that Williams would not be present.
Upon vote: Kelzenberg, nay; Diehm, nay; Nawrocki, nay; Peterson, nay. 4 nays. Motion failed.
Peterson stated that this vote was not a surprise to the Charter Commission and they will now take it to
their commission for consideration to be placed on the November ballot.
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2006-79, being a Res~!~l?V:l declaring 4232 5th Street a nuisance and approving

abatement.
Fire Chief Gorman stated the violations go back to the Fall of 2005. The only violation remaining
are landscape materials in the back yard. He showed pictures of the yard. The Council has already
given the homeowner an extension to clean up the back yard. He basically moved the materials
around the comer.
Peterson asked if anyone was present to represent the property.
Allen Wiggins, 4252 5th Street, stated he has lived here for 19 years and has completed extensive
landscaping on the property. Two years ago he had an arson garage fire, losing one-quarter of a
million in assets, which resulted in depression. He has now begun to work on the property again.
Wiggins stated that he met with Asst. Chief Larkin a week ago and requested an extension until
October 31. Peterson stated this property has been problematic for the neighbors. Wiggins stated
he was a mineralist and an active scrap metaler, but the items would be part of the landscaping.
Gorman requested that the abatement go through, but if there is progress on the property the
department will work with the owner. Last year he was given an extension and just hid the debris
from us. Peterson stated that there is still considerable debris in the picture. He felt it was time to
draw the line.
Nawrocki asked if the rocks around the tree are special. Wiggins stated they were hand picked,
and he polishes them to give to children or to use in his backyard.
Kelzenberg said if it was true that Wiggins had added to the number of rocks since the last
extension was granted. Wiggins stated he added marble slab pieces for a path to the garage and
has added some rocks to his collection. Kelzenberg stated he wanted to make sure that the owner
made progress onthe cleanup over the summer. He stated that neighbors have complained, and we
are trying to clean up the whole city. We would like it cleaned up as soon as possible.
Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Diehm, to close the public hearing and to waive the reading of
Resolution No. 2006-79, there being ample copies available to the public. Upon vote: All ayes.

vote: All Ayes. Motion carried.
Wiggins asked for July, August, and September to complete the work. Peterson stated that he would
have to work with Asst. Chief Larkin on this.

ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION
Other Ordinances and Resolutions
Approval of Minor Subdivision with variances located at 4100 Reservoir Blvd.
Sargent stated there would be no variances with this proposal. At the last meeting there were two
variances requested. The applicant has decided to reconfigure the property so as to not require a variance.
Sargent stated that both lots would meet the Code and width requirements as a minor lot division. Due to
the refiguration of the lot line, the park dedication fee required will now be less, as outlined in the
Resolution.
Nawrocki stated this was tabled to receive findings of fact to not approve the request. Sargent stated this
resolution is only for a minor lot division and does not include any variances.
Hoeft stated the item tabled was the lot split with the variance request, it is put back on the table. This
does not mean Council cannot consider the owner's request. What was put back on the table was the
original request and now there is a new request.
Kelzenberg questioned if this needs to go back to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Sargent stated
that they had approved the original request and this is a diminished request. Kelzenberg asked if the owner
was present. Sargent stated that the applicant was present.
Diehm asked if the applicant approached the city or if the City recommended this action. Sargent stated
that it was the cooperation of both parties to find an easier way to create a minor subdivision.
Kelzenberg asked the owner if the intent was to build a house on the other lot. Resa, the applicant, stated it
is a big lot. Kelzenberg stated that the elevation would seem to be a problem. Resa stated that the builder
suggested a walk out basement. Kelzenberg asked where the parking would be for this lot. Resa stated it
would be from the other side of the garage, as the left side is a proposed alley.
Diehm questioned if it is it up to the property owner to decide if they have access off the street or the
alley. Sargent stated it would be by code and handled through Public Works. An alley has not been
approved, as it would be difficult to gain access off the alley. He felt the owner was referring to where the
garage would go, not the access. Diehm referred to concerns from neighbors regarding access from 41 st.
She asked if there are standards for the number of driveways in an area. Hansen stated that relative to
other residential areas, there is no code requiren _ 1'6 ]ur concern would be that they are far enough back

from a corner or stop sign. Diehm asked if this would be addressed through the permit process. Hansen
stated that was correct.
Motion by Diehm, second Kelzenberg to waive the reading of Resolution 2006-68, as modified, there
being ample copies available to the public. Upon vote: All Ayes. Motion carried.
Motion by Diehm, second by Kelzenberg, to adopt Resolution No. 2006-68, as modified, approving a
minor subdivision at 4100 Reservoir Boulevard, subject to the conditions stated in the Resolution.
Diehm stated that this is about the third or fourth time that we have had requests for a minor lot division,
where neighbors express concerns. By our current Code they meet all the requirements and are allowed to
do this. Maybe we should look at our City Code and see if the lot sizes are what we want them to be.
Upon vote: All Ayes. Motion carried.
Bid Considerations - none
Authorize funds for maintenance inspection summer hours.
Gorman stated this would be a way to inspect a lot of single family homes. We have not had the time to do
them how they should be done. We do them by complaint and our complaints are on the rise. We want to
take a more proactive approach. The intent is to do the bad properties with a lot of violations or obvious
violations, and not to nit-pick homes. We see owners investing time into their properties, which is good,
but we have properties that are not being maintained. This would allow an extra 20 hours a week, which
would include time to process the paper work and follow-up. This can make a difference in our town. We
hear the same frustrations from neighbors and we want to address them. Previously, we inspected a
quarter of the city each year, which did not work. We can not afford to slow down the current process of
revocations and abatements. The request is capped at $11,000, but may be less depending on who is doing
the inspections.
Nawrocki stated that the inspection program seems to be going well. There has been tremendous
improvement recently in the community. Why do we want to spend more time on this? There will be
budget problems next year, and yet this would be built into that budget.
A resident spoke, stating he moved here from North Minneapolis and that he wanted to say this would be
money well spent. If these items are not addressed, your community will suffer.
Nawrocki stated that we have been doing the job and we can continue with the money we are putting into
the program.
Peterson stated that residents are doing a good job, but we want to do better. This action is driven by
citizen's that call us and express their concern. He agreed, you can not let things fester. We want to be
proactive, not reactive.
Motion by Diehm, second by Ke1zenberg, to authorize up to $11,000 in funds to be used by the Fire
Department to conduct property maintenance inspections for up to 20 hours a week from July through
September and to appropriate $11,000 from the General Fund unreserved fund balance to the 2006
Fire Department Budget for this purpose. Upon vote: Kelzenberg, aye; Diehm, aye; Nawrocki, aye;
Peterson, aye. 4 ayes. Motion carried.
45th to 53rd University Avenue
Nawrocki stated that we had approved and told residents there would be a sealcoating project for the area
this year. At a work session it was discussed to 1- 17 -is out of the budget with hopes to obtain State
City Council Agenda

funding. He spoke to person that is vehement that something needs to be done this year. Another spoke of
the fence with the comment that there are vines on the fence that deaden the sound. The sound walls on
the Fridley side of University cause sound to bounce back to the Columbia Heights side. As decisions are
not to be made at a worksession, what is being done? If staff intends not to proceed with seal coating,
residents deserve to know.
Fehst stated that we intend to notify everyone on the avenue, and will meet with themto talk about it. If
there is a strong inclination to go ahead, we may do it. He referred to the possibility of State funding and
of the City of Fridley no longer helping on this. Nawrocki stated concern about the terrible job done
cutting the grass along University and it was so long it looks like cut hay. Fehst stated that the contractor
will again cut the cut grass. Fehst indicted that we are paying to have this cut, because the State is
choosing not to cut it, like we require our citizens to do.
Discussion on an activity center
Nawrocki stated that residents should be informed on the activity center committee, the School District
proposal, and the Heritage Heights area discussions. The School Board is discussing adding two gyms and
a possible running track for $3+ million on to the existing high school, by the pool. Fehst stated they have
$3.8 million to build the building. It would be one gym and no running track. The School Board's request
is that we consider contributing $1.6 million. Fehst stated the request would be made available to the
activity center committee. Nawrocki suggested the information be corrected in the activity center draft
newsletter. He stated the newsletter is not correct, as we have an activity center in Murzyn Hall for the
youth in our community.
45 to 53 University Avenue - continued
Hansen stated that we knew University Avenue would have to be cut two or three times to get it to
acceptable shape. Hansen stated it is the intent to meet with University service drive residents after July 4
to discuss the condition offence, condition of the roadway, and the grass cutting. In past years MNDOT
eventually cut the grass, but we have now received notice that MNDOT would only cut the grass once.
MNDOT recognitions their limitations, but they are willing to work with cities by contributing partial
funding. Hansen recommended the roadway receive, with MNDOT funding, a mil and overlay, to last 20
years, rather than a sealcoat lasting only six to eight years. Preparation would take until next year. Hansen
suggested meeting with residents the week of July 10th.
Nawrocki questioned the status of the LaBelle fountain. Hansen stated the fountain has been dismantled
because of the condition. Restoration will be a budgetary item for 2007.
Other Business
Reconsideration of Mayor Pro Tern
Peterson stated that it was brought to his attention that one and one-half year ago there were two
nominations for Council President with discussion to split time of the term between the two. Peterson
stated that as he was on prevailing side of the motion, he wished it brought up for reconsideration.
Motion by Peterson, second by Kelzenberg, to bring up for reconsideration appointment of the Council
President.
Nawrocki stated that he assumed it was put on the agenda by the Manager to slap his fingers because of
the comments at the last Council meeting. Peterson indicated that the request was not from the City
Manager.
Upon vote: Kelzenberg, aye; Diehm, aye; Nawrocki, nay; Peterson, aye. 3 ayes - 1 nay. Motion carried.

Motion by Kelzenberg, second by Peterson, to nominate Tami Diehm as Mayor Pro Tem.
Diehm stated this was not a punishment. Originally this was discussed to cultivate leadership on the
council. We recognize Councilmember Nawrocki's long history and role to serve and also respect that.
We hope that you will allow us to cultivate leadership by allowing someone else the role. Nawrocki
indicated the position does not do much and gave a historical quote.
Upon vote: Kelzenberg, aye; Diehm, aye; Nawrocki, nay; Peterson, aye. 3 ayes -1 nay. Motion carried.
Peterson indicated that it was noted that we missed the annual evaluation of our City Manager. He
requested this date be set at the next meeting.
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS
Report of the City Manager
Fehst reported that the Community Development staff received the ET AM award for the development
of the industrial property; for innovativeness, quickness, and staff initiative. This will be brought to
Council to make a formal award.
Fehst stated there is $50,000 to $75,000 for demo of the Apache Theater through some remaining
Community Development Block Grant funds from Anoka County. Funds would be available if the
project proceeds. There is a pre-development agreement with Len Pratt. Fehst stated that the Mayor
had requested beautification and accessibility to the east side of Hart Lake.
Fehst stated that we have done well with the new ordinance to speed the job of cutting weeds and long
grass.
Fehst commented and commended the School Board on their proposal to build a couple of gyms and
work with us for our community. He pointed to their foresight to not include this with the referendum
issue. We will try to schedule a meeting with the School Board as soon as possible.
Nawrocki
. Referred to the retirement ofthe Project Coordinator. Indicated that during the last budget
session the Manager recommended the position be reduced to part time. With the Coordinator
leaving, he asked to look at not replacing this position with a full time person. Fehst stated that
we are looking at that and are not filling the position for right now.
. Welch Company is looking at properties at 50th and Central for a liquor store site, and now
they have a for rent sign by the old Color Tile store. They did not disclose they are also
representing them. He requested to see the disclosure statement.

APPROVAL CONSENT AGENDA
Motion to approve consent agenda by Payne; second by Stroik. All ayes, motion carried.
LETTERS AND REQUESTS
Public Works Director/City Engineer Hansen asked the commission for their thoughts on
the requests for additional fencing at Ramsdell Park. Evans stated that good screening
exists along Molan Drive. Payne agreed that good screening exists and feels that the City
should not pay for additional fencing. Stroik stated that by placing additional fencing
more residents would request the City to pay for fencing which would help to increase
the property values and not help the City in any way. Hoium asked about the cost and
process of removing the existing fencing. Hansen replied that there are 2 requests from
residents. The process for the City is to assess the area and deciding if the reason for
screening is audible or visual. He suggested for Ramsdell Park to first look at if the
current fencing needs replacing and if there are any specialized or unique features at the
park that would require special screening. Cost sharing where the homeowners pay for
any upgrades in fencing is also an option. Stroik stated that a privacy fence doesn't really
block noise. Evans stated spruce or trees provide more audible effect than fencing.
Hansen stated that estimated fencing costs would be $ 12/ft for a chain link fence versus
$20 to $24 per foot for cedar fencing. Stroik asked if that is in the budget. Hansen
replied that the City would never place a cedar fence for high maintenance costs. Payne
asked the residents what type of fence they are requesting. Resident Sowada showed the
commission a picture of a privacy fence and stated that the area is heavily used in the
summer and kids jump the fence around the pool after it is closed. Evans suggested to
call 9-1-1 and have the area patrolled more frequently. Hansen stated that any resident
could put in a fence on their property along the existing fence. Evans asked if the City
would help take down the existing fence.
Hansen suggested that the commission create a very specific policy for future issues
regarding fences for a park purpose versus a private fence. Payne commented that if the
fence is in need of repair than the City should help the resident. Resident Allen replied
that they would just like the fence removed so that they could put a privacy fence on their
property at their cost. Hansen stated that once the Allen's install their fence the City
would remove the existing fence along their property line, but it would not be until the
fall of this year. Motion by Payne regarding the Allen property, to work with the family

..
to take down the existing fence once their fence is installed 6 inches within their property
at no future maintenance cost to the City. Second by Stroik, all ayes motion carried.
Payne stated that the same motion would be extended to the Sowada residence. Evans
stated that if any resident wants privacy they put up a fence; where would it end if the
City shared the cost of a privacy fence at Ramsdell? Stroik added that every homeowner
around a park would request the same. Resident Sowada stated that they would like to
use existing poles for their privacy fence. Stroik replied that the fence posts are the
City's property. Hoium stated that the City does not want to own a privacy fence.
Motion by Payne to table the request by the Sowada residents to install a privacy fence
until the commission can create a policy regarding the replacement of fencing. Second
by Stroik, all ayes motion carried.
OLD BUSINESS
Recreation Director Keith Windschitl reported to the commission that the City Council
passed the installation of ball field lights at Prestemon Park. We are moving forward
with the purchasing process. Evans asked why the softball times have been moved later
in the evenings than in previous years. Windschitl replied that he had received requests
from several teams to move the start time to 6:15 to accommodate work schedules. The
6:30 time is for youth games. 6:30 is needed so that any out oftown teams are allowed
travel time. Windschitl thanked the commission members who attended the Council
Meeting.
NEW BUSINESS
Motion by Hoium to approve the donation of a mural at the Jefferson building at Huset
Park. Second by Payne, all ayes motion carried.

Dear Sir or Madam:
This letter is in response to the amendment to your organization's Articles of Incorporation filed with the state
on October 4, 2002. We have updated our records to reflect the name change as indicated above.
Our records indicate that a determination letter issued in January 1995, granted your organization exemption
from federal income tax under section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. That letter is still in effect.
Based on information subsequently submitted, we classified your organization as one that is not a private
foundation within the meaning of section 509(a) of the Code because it is an organization described in
sections 509(a)1 and 170 (b)(1)(a)(vi).
This classification was based on the assumption that your organization's operations would continue as stated
in the application. If your organization's sources of support, or its character, method of operations, or
purposes have changed, please let us know so we can consider the effect of the change on the exempt
status and foundation status of your organization.
Your organization is required to file Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, only if its
gross receipts each year are normally more than $25,000. If a return is required,' it must be filed by the 15th
day of the fifth month after the end of the organization's annual accounting period. The law imposes a
penalty of $20 a day, up to a maximum of $10,000, when a return is filed late, unless there is reasonable
cause for the delay.
All exempt organizations (unless specifically excluded) are liable for taxes under the Federal Insurance
Contributions Act (social security taxes) on remuneration of $100 or more paid to each employee during a
calendar year. Your organ1zation is not liable for the tax imposed under the Federal Unemployment Tax Act
(FUTA).
Organizations that are not private foundations are not subject to the excise taxes under Chapter 42 of the
Code. However, these organizations are not automatically exempt from other federal excise taxes.
Donors may deduct contributions to your organization as provided in section 170 of the Code. Bequests,
legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts to your organization or for its use are deductible for federal estate and
gift tax purposes if they meet the applicable provisions of sections 2055, 2106, and 2522 of the Code.

DATE: June 28, 2006
BACKGROUND
During the past three months, the Police Department has been involved in off duty employment details
that are handled through the department. These details were security details at Unique Thrift Store and

checks totaling $2,575. This money is considered revenue and was placed in the City General Fund.
ANALYSIS/CONCLUSION
The Police Department is requesting that the City Council pass a motion requiring the $2,233.30 received
from Unique Thrift Stores and the $2,575 received from Columbia Heights School District #13 be
returned to the 2006 Police Department budget line #1020.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to transfer $2,233.30 received from Unique Thrift Stores and
$2,575 received from Columbia Heights School District #13 from the General Fund to the Police
Department 2006 budget under line #1020, police overtime.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Walt F ehst
Randy Schumacher
FROM:
Stephen Bubul
DATE:
July 7, 2006
RE:
Subordination and Consent Agreement between City, EDA and BNC
National Bank ("Subordination Agreement")
The City, EDA and Huset Park Development Corporation ("Redeveloper") entered into a
Contract for Private Redevelopment dated as of October 25, 2005 (the "Contract"). In that
Contract, the EDA agreed to subordinate its rights under the Contract in order to facilitate
the Redeveloper's efforts to secure financing for the development, subject to reasonable
terms and conditions that the EDA and lender agree upon in writing.
The Redeveloper is currently seeking a loan from BNC National Bank (the "Bank") to
provide additional financing for continued work on the project. The Bank has requested that
the EDA (and City, since the City is also a party to the Contract) subordinate their rights
under the Contract, all as detailed in the Subordination Agreement referenced above.
The Subordination Agreement has two major functions:
1. The City and EDA subordinate whatever rights they have in the subject property
under the Contract. Neither the City nor EDA hold mortgages on the subject property, and
there are no minimum value assessment agreements in place. As such, subordination does
not materially affect the City and EDA.
2. The City and EDA agree that the Redeveloper is assigning its rights in the tax
increment and related assistance under the Contract to the Bank. That is, as security for the
Bank's loan to Redeveloper, the Bank will have the right to receive tax increment notes and
other payments that would otherwise be owed to the Redeveloper. This is a standard request
by lenders in redevelopment transactions, and raises no concerns for the City or EDA.
Nothing in the Subordination Agreement changes the EDA's or City's obligations regarding
the redevelopment effort.
I have reviewed the Subordination Agreement and, and in my view, it is a commercially
reasonable document that is substantially similar to agreements the EDA has approved in
prior redevelopment transactions.
If you or members of the Councilor EDA have further questions, please let me know.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve the Subordination and Consent Agreement
between City of Columbia Heights and BNC National Bank; and furthermore; to authorize
the Mayor and City Manager to enter into an agreement for the same.
