Possible Future Housing Programs Melinda Coleman, director of community development, told the commissioners that the city council would like them to attend a Monday, August 2, 1999, workshop. The meeting begins at 6 p.m. The council would like to talk about some housing issues. She said there is a surplus of tax-increment money, primarily from the Carefree Cottages, that needs to be spent on housing projects. Mary Ippel of Briggs and Morgan, the city's bond consultant on TIF projects, will be at the meeting. Ms. Ippel will review many of the items contained in a memorandum that was included in the HRA packet. HRA Minutes of 07-21-99 Ms. Coleman asked the commission to review the QSA study that was done for the City of Maplewood in June 1996. She said one of the primary recommendations of this study was to do a home replacement where the city would buy a deteriorated house, tear it down, and then sell the lot for development to create a revolving loan fund to continue this program. Chairperson Fischer mentioned that the HRA's priority, as discussed at a previous meeting, was to renovate "borderline" housing by means of Iow-cost loans, etc. Ms. Coleman said that Steve Quam of QSA, who did the housing program evaluation for Maplewood, recommended that the city start with the home replacement program and then possibly get into remodeling or repair. It was Ms. Coleman's recollection that the HRA was not fully in agreement with Mr. Quam's procedural recommendation to set up ad hoc committees composed of representatives from all over the city. Ms. Fischer thought another criticism was Mr. Quam had not considered the areas designated in the comprehensive plan as sites that needed to be watched because they were older, marginal housing or next to subsidized housing. Ms. Coleman suggested the commission consider housing project options that they would want to recommend to the city council. Ms. Coleman also wanted to discuss the tax-forfeited parcels located across County Road B from city hall on the west side of VanDyke Street. She said there is some interest in combining these parcels with the parcel on the corner to do a townhouse project. The HRA's involvement is necessary for the city to sell and buy land. A public purpose, such as affordable housing, is also a requirement. The city would let the county know that they are interested in selling these parcels, pay the market price to Ramsey County, and then enter into an agreement with a developer to the affordable townhouse project. Ken Roberts, associate planner, asked if TIF money could be used to buy this land. Ms. Coleman thought it could but wondered if the council would want it all spent on this project. She felt a better approach would be to market the land and request maximum density development. Mr. Roberts also wondered, if the proposed housing was Iow-moderate, would the TIF money be used to subsidize the rent or pay for infrastructure. Ms. Coleman urged the commissioners to be prepared to ask this type of question at the August 2 meeting. Commissioner Pearson suggested designating specific types of remodeling projects that would be available at Iow interest, subsidized rates to get certain properties rehabilitated and to try to get the blight corrected in affected areas. Mr. Roberts liked the idea of "getting rid of three, four or five really problem homes." City staff has compiled a list of ten "bad" homes. Mr. Roberts also asked it the city should wait until one of these homes is put on the market or if the owner should be approached before that time. Various options were discussed. Ms. Coleman felt that Maplewood was very fortunate in that they do not have a lot of blighted housing. She thought most of the council members wanted to stay ahead of the problem. Ms. Coleman emphasized that if this money is not used it will be lost so the council should come to a consensus on how it should be spent. She suggested that the commission summarize to the city council what program they would have as their priority. The consensus was the first priority would be to replace substandard housing. Ms. Fischer emphasized that "it isn't as though we are intentionally starting off to demolish affordable or HRA Minutes of 07-21-99 our only Iow-cost housing in the city." Those houses being considered would have definitely deteriorated to a point where it was no longer feasible for improvement. The HRA was also interested in a town house project on VanDyke Street, if possible. DATE OF NEXT MEETING The date of the next meeting has not been determined. ADJOURNMENT The meeting adjourned at 8:15 p.m. MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: SUBJECT: DATE: City Manager Ken Roberts, Associate Planner HOUSING REPLACEMENT PROGRAM April 28, 2000 INTRODUCTION The city council recently authorized a change in the use of excess tax increments from the Carefree Cottages. The city originally planned to use these funds to finance debt service on the 1999 Tax Increment Bonds issued to provide funds for a Housing Replacement Program. This program is to help fund the replacement of dilapidated houses with new homes throughout Maplewood. On December 13, 1999, the city council amended the resolution for the 1999 Tax Increment Bonds. The council made the amendments so that the proceeds can be used to reimburse the Sanitary Sewer Fund for the cost of sanitary sewer improvements directly related to the Carefree Cottages Phase I, II and II1. Therefore, there was no need for the Sanitary Sewer Fund to keep the $646,929.86 reimbursement for sanitary sewer improvement costs. The council also established the Housing Replacement Program budget and transferred the money from the Sanitary Sewer Fund to the Housing Replacement Program. With the establishment of the Housing Replacement Program and its funding, the city must now prepare operation guidelines and procedures for this program. These should include goals, policy guidelines and operational procedures for the purchase of property and the distribution of property by the city for housing replacement in Maplewood. BACKGROUND On August 2, 1999, the city council discussed possible future housing programs with the HRA at the council/manager workshop. At this meeting, the council directed staff to prepare a housing plan that would replace dilapidated houses with new, higher-value replacement homes. On August 23, 1999, the city council approved developing a Home Replacement Program that would: 1. Use the surplus tax increment proceeds (up to about $687,000) from Districts 1-4, 1-5 and 1-6 to fund the housing program. The city was expected to spend this money within 3 years. 2. Buy vacant or dilapidated properties from willing sellers at fair market value. Demolish any dilapidated houses and other structures and rough grade the lots. Deed the vacant properties at no cost to an agency or group that will use the lots to provide new housing for Iow-to-moderate income persons. Such a transaction would be subject to all Maplewood zoning and building requirements. (Note: Because the city was going to use tax-exempt bonds to fund this program, the city would have been only able to do no-cost grants of property. The city cannot sell property or provide Iow interest loans with tax-exempt money. However, this no longer applies since the city will not be using tax-exempt funding for this program.) ~ T I T The council also adopted resolutions at this meeting that provided preliminary approval for the sale of $719,094 1999 General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds and authorized the use of excess tax increment revenues from the Carefree Cottages to finance debt service on the bonds. On September 27, 1999, the city council approved a resolution approving changes for the Development District No. 1 and changes to Housing Districts Numbers 1-4, 1-5 and 1-6. These changes designated that the city was to spend the excess funds from the three TIF Districts on a housing replacement program. On December 13, 1999, the city council approved several city staff requests for the Housing Replacement Program. These included amending the resolution for the 1999 Tax Increment Bonds. The council made the amendments so that the proceeds can be used to reimburse the Sanitary Sewer Fund for the cost of sanitary sewer improvements directly related to the Carefree Cottages Phase I, II and II1. The improvements involved slip lining a sanitary sewer main to decrease leakage into it and to increase its capacity. Decreasing the leakage has caused a decrease in the flow through the sanitary sewer main and a corresponding decrease in sewage treatment costs. This will result in about a ten-year payback of the improvement costs by decreased treatment costs. Therefore, there was no need for the Sanitary Sewer Fund to keep the $646,929.86 reimbursement for sanitary sewer improvement costs. At this meeting the council also established a Housing Replacement Fund and transferred $646,929.86 from the Sewer Fund to the Housing Replacement Fund. (See the memos dated 12-2-99 and 12-7-99 from Dan Faust, Maplewood Finance Director, starting on page four.) These actions created the Housing Replacement Fund, set a budget for the fund, and most important, gave the city more flexibility in how the city may spend the money in the fund. DISCUSSION The HRA has been reviewing and considering housing programs for several years. The city council's actions on December 13, 1999 allow city staff to proceed with the development and implementation of the new housing replacement program. With the financing changes that the city council approved on December 13, 1999, the city is no longer limited in how or where the money can be spent. The limiting factor in the spending should be that any expenditures meet the original goals and purposes of the program - to replace dilapidated housing on scattered sites in Maplewood. City staff also has prepared a list of the houses in Maplewood that, in staffs opinion, are those that are in the poorest condition and thus would be candidates for replacement. We have copies of this list if you wish one for your records. COMMISSION ACTION On July 21, 1999, the HRA discussed possible future housing programs for Maplewood. The HRA is interested in having the city start a housing replacement program and possibly working with the city to encourage development of the property on the west side of Van Dyke Street, north of County Road B. RECOMMENDATION Approve the plan starting on page 21. This plan is for the operations and procedures for the Maplewood Housing Replacement Program. kr/p:misc\hsgpro3.mem Attachments: 1. 12-2-99 memo from Finance Director 2. 12-7-99 memo from Finance Director 3.

B Maplewood, MN 55109 Re: City of Maplewood, Minnesota - General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds, Series 1999B Dear Dan: The City of Maplewood recently issued the above-referenced bonds to finance housing projects permitted under the Tax Increment Financing Act. Recently I discussed with City staff the rules contained in the Tax Increment Financing Act relating to the use of the bond proceeds for housing projects. There are numerous tax increment rules that apply to housing projects. There is an alternative use of the bond proceeds that will give the City greater flexibility and meet the objectives of the City. I am proposing that the City utilize the bond proceeds to reimburse the City for cost of sanitary sewer improvements rather than use the proceeds for housing projects. When the City established Housing Districts Nos. 1-4, 1-5 and 1-6 relating to the Carefree Cottages Phase I, II and III projects, the City installed sewer improvements directly related to these projects. The tax increment financing plans for these tax increment districts authorized the issuance of General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds to finance these sanitary sewer improvements and the development agreements with the developers of the Carefree Cottages projects also provided for the installation of the sanitary improvements and the use of tax increments to reimburse the City for the cost of the sanitary sewer improvements. A major benefit of this approach is that if the City reimburses itself for the cost of the sanitary sewer improvements, the rules applicable to the use of tax increments and bond proceeds for housing projects do not apply because the bond proceeds were spent on public improvements. The City can use the bond proceeds to reimburse the sanitary sewer fund which is the fund that 1111665.1 5 MINNEAPOLIS OFFICE · IDS CENTER · WWW, BRIGGS.COM MEMBER - LEX MUNDI, A GLOBAL ASSOCIATION OF INDEPENDENT LAW FIRMS BIRIGGS ^"') iYIORGAN Dan Faust December 1, 1999 Page 2 financed the sanitary sewer improvements. A transfer can be made from the sanitary sewer fund to the City's housing replacement fund. The sums deposited in the housing replacement fund can be used for housing replacement purposes in any manner that the City Council determines. This method meets the City's original purpose with less rules and restrictions. The funds can either be loaned or granted, the income of the recipients of these funds is not limited and the City will have greater flexibility in administering the housing replacement fund. For example, questions have been asked whether a nonconforming lot can be split between two adjoining landowners or added to City open space. The answers are yes if the bond proceeds are used to finance the sanitary sewer improvements. In order to use the bond proceeds for the purpose of reimbursing the City for the public improvement expenses, it will be necessary to adopt certain resolutions and amend the tax increment financing plans for Housing Districts Nos. 1-4, 1-5 and 1-6. I have enclosed these resolutions and amendments for your review. Very truly yours, Mary L.

Whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and 1111715.1 2 18 Attachment 2 AGENDA NO. ~-~- ~ AGENDA REPORT TO: FROM: RE: City Manager Finance Director Establishment of Housing Replacement Fund DATE: December 7, 1999 PROPOSAL It is proposed that the City Council approve (1) the establishment of the Housing Replacement Fund, (2) a transfer of $646,929.86 from the Sewer Fund to the Housing Replacement Fund, and (3) the appropriate budget changes. BACKGROUND On 8-23-99 the City Council directed staff to prepare a Housing Replacement Program. The purpose of the program would be to (a) buy vacant or dilapidated properties from willing sellers at market value, (b) demolish any dilapidated houses or other structures and rough grade the lots, and (c)deed vacant properties to an agency or group that will use the properties to provide new housing for Iow-to-moderate income persons. In order to properly account for and monitor the program, it would be beneficial to establish a special revenue fund. The proposed title of the fund would be the Housing Replacement Fund. Proceeds from the 1999 Tax Increment Bonds have been used to reimburse the Sanitary Sewer Fund for the cost of sanitary sewer improvements directly related to the Carefree Cottages Phase I, II, and III. The improvements involved slip lining a sanitary sewer main to decrease leakage into it and increase its capacity. Decreasing the leakage has caused a decrease in the flow through the sanitary sewer main and a corresponding decrease in sewage treatment costs. This will result in an approximate ten-year payback of the improvement costs by decreased treatment costs according to the City's engineering staff. Therefore, there is no need for the Sanitary Sewer Fund to keep the $646,929.86 19 reimbursement for sanitary sewer improvement costs. This money can be used for the Housing Replacement Program. Budget changes for 1999 should be made for the transfer of $646,929.86 from the Sewer Fund to the Housing Replacement Fund. Also, the 2000 Budget should be amended to include an appropriation of $646,930 for the Housing Replacement Program. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve (1) the establishment of the Housing Replacement Fund, (2) a transfer of $646,929.86 from the Sewer Fund to the Housing Replacement Fund, and (3) the appropriate budget changes.

A concern of the council has been that if a single dwelling deteriorates to the point of becoming a detriment or an eyesore that it will have a negative affect on the surrounding area. As such, the city council has made a commitment to improve the condition of the single family residential housing stock in scattered sites with the Maplewood Housing Replacement Program. Goals . The following are the goals of the Maplewood Housing Replacement Program: 1. To keep the Maplewood housing market viable and values increasing by constantly improving and upgrading housing. 2. To eliminate problem housing by removing housing that can only deteriorate because its basic quality is inherently Iow. 3. To have a program and plan that will benefit the whole city and each of its residents. History The Maplewood City Council and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) have been discussing and reviewing the condition of housing in Maplewood for several years. In 1992, the comprehensive plan identified two related issues about housing and neighborhood quality. The first issue is what steps can the city take to prevent the deterioration or abandonment of its older housing stock? A second issue was what steps can the city take to prevent neighborhoods from . deteriorating? Specifically, if a single dwelling deteriorates to the point of becoming a detriment or an eyesore, it will have a negative affect on the surrounding area. That is, other property owners may not be motivated to care for or to improve their properties if they live next to or near a rundown house. Because of the above concerns, the city council hired Quam and Associates in 1996 to do a housing program concepts evaluation. This evaluation was to provide the city with a summary of the following program issues: 1. The type of programs (home replacement, existing home transformation, area redevelopment) that would be most effective in updating neighborhoods and conserving existing open lands. 2. The possible funding sources for such a program. 3. The cost effectiveness of any housing initiatives and the positive impact they might have on the taxes and revenues of the city and the school district. 21 The housing program evaluation completed by Quam and Associates determined that a home replacement program would be the best program now for Maplewood. This is because there are properties that have deteriorated and are inconsistent with the character of the rest of the neighborhood. It is important to remember that much of the housing in older Maplewood neighborhoods was built before zoning and building restrictions were in place. These are often the houses that are now deteriorated and an eyesore. Removing an existing eyesore property and replacing the worst home with a new home that sets a new quality standard is an effective action for change. In a meeting on August 2, 1999 with the HRA, the city council again discussed possible future housing programs. At this meeting, the council directed staff to prepare a housing plan that would replace dilapidated houses with new, higher-value replacement homes. On August 23, 1999, the city council approved developing a Housing Replacement Program that would: Use the surplus tax increment proceeds (up to about $687,000) from Districts 1-4, 1-5 and 1-6 to fund the housing program. The city must reasonably expect to spend this money within 3 years. 2. Buy vacant or dilapidated properties from willing sellers at fair market value. 3. Demolish any dilapidated houses and other structures and rough grade the lots. Deed the vacant properties at no cost to an agency or group that will use the lots to provide new housing for Iow-to-moderate income persons. Such a transaction would be subject to all Maplewood zoning and building requirements. (Note: Because the city would be using tax-exempt bonds to fund this program, the city may only do no-cost grants of property. The city cannot sell the property or provide Iow interest loans with the tax-exempt money.) The council also adopted resolutions at this meeting that provided preliminary approval for the sale of $719,094 1999 General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds and authorized the use of excess tax increment revenues from the Carefree Cottages to finance debt service on the bonds. On September 27, 1999, the city council approved a resolution approving changes for the Development District No. 1 and changes to Housing Districts Numbers 1-4, 1-5 and 1-6. These changes designated that the city will spend the excess funds from the three TIF Districts on a housing replacement program. The total funds available to the city to spend from this program should be about $687,000. On December 13, 1999, the city council approved several city staff requests for the Housing Replacement Program. These included amending the resolution for the 1999 Tax Increment Bonds. The council made the amendments so that the proceeds can be used to reimburse the Sanitary Sewer Fund for the cost of sanitary sewer improvements directly related to the Carefree Cottages Phase I, II and III. The improvements involved slip lining a sanitary sewer main to decrease leakage into it and to increase its capacity. Decreasing the leakage has caused a decrease in the flow through the sanitary sewer main and a corresponding decrease in sewage treatment costs. This will result in about a ten-year payback of the improvement costs by decreased treatment costs. Therefore, there was no need for the Sanitary Sewer Fund to keep the $646,929.86 reimbursement for sanitary sewer improvement costs. At this meeting the council also established a Housing Replacement Fund and transferred $646,929.86 from the Sewer Fund to the Housing Replacement Fund. These actions created the Housing Replacement Fund, set a budget for the fund, and most important, gave the city more flexibility in how the city may spend the money in the fund. General Policy Guidelines The city shall follow the standards and guidelines in the Maplewood City Code of Ordinances and in the Maplewood Comprehensive Plan when administering and operating the Maplewood Housing Replacement Program. The Director of Community Development shall make the final decisions in cases or issues of uncertainty in the program. Anyone may appeal the Director's decision to the Maplewood City Council for review and possible change. Practices and Methods of Property Purchase and Resale 1. Maplewood will only buy vacant or dilapidated properties from willing sellers. 2. The city will have an appraisal done and will only pay fair market value for a property. 3. The seller of the property is responsible for properly sealing or capping any wells on the property. o After the city closes on the purchase, the city will hire a contractor to remove the structures on the property and rough grade the site. For a buildable site, the city will deed the property at no cost to an agency or group that will use the lot to provide new housing for Iow-to-moderate income persons after the contractor has graded the site. The new construction would be subject to city staff review and approval as outlined below and all Maplewood zoning and building requirements. The city council shall approve the property ownership transfer. City staff will review and approve all new house design and site plans. The construction shall include a garage at least big enough to hold two motor vehicles. The design of the new construction shall be compatible with adjacent and nearby houses. Staff shall consider the following when reviewing these house plans: a. The height, bulk and area of the existing and proposed buildings. b. The color and materials of the proposed buildings. c. The physical and architectural relationship of the proposed structure with the existing buildings. d. The site, layout, orientation and location of the proposed and existing buildings and their relationship with existing topography, landscaping and vegetation. City staff may require changes to the plans or may add conditions they deem necessary to ensure that the proposed design is compatible with the existing neighborhood. 23 t 'r' I The city must make the following findings to approve the proposed plans: ao That the design and location of the proposed construction and its relationship to neighboring, existing or proposed developments are such that it will not impair the desirability of the existing neighborhood. b. That the proposed design and location of the construction are in keeping with the character of the existing neighborhood. c. That the proposed design would be aesthetically pleasing in composition, materials, textures and colors. The developer or builder may appeal the staff decisions about design issues to the community design review board. o If the property the city has bought is next to publicly-owned property, the city may choose to keep the property for open space rather than transfer the property to another owner. The city council shall approve any property transfer or decision to keep a property. If the property the city has bought does not meet the city's zoning standards for lot size or lot width, the city may choose to: a. Keep the property for open space rather than transfer the property to another owner. b. Divide the property and deed the pieces to the adjacent property owners. The city council shall approve any property transfer or decision to keep a property. 24 Attachment 4 Dilapited and Substandard Houses - Maplewood (In order of Priority) October 25, 1999 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 1819 Birmingham Street 1890 Adele Street 1779 Frank Street 1309 1/2 Kohlman Avenue (PIN 15-29-22-32-0023) (PIN 16-29-22-42-0018) (PIN 16-29-22-43-0004) (PIN 03-29-22-33-0072 or 0073) 1742 and 1742 % English Street 549 Farrell Street 1724 Sylvan Street 1287 Lark Avenue 1700 Clarence Street 2682 Geranium Avenue 1744 Prosperi~ (PIN (PIN (PIN (PIN (PIN (PIN (PIN 15-29-22-33-0094 or 0095) 36-29-22-14-0022) 18-29-22-34-0038 or 0039) 09-29-22-44-0002) 15-29-22-33-0104) 25-29-22-11-0026) 15-29-22-43-0017) (Rehab?)

These properties are on the west side of Van Dyke Street between County Road B and Cope Avenue. (See the maps on pages 2 and 3.) These four properties total about 3.45 acres in size. BACKGROUND In 1995 or 1996 the city acquired use deeds on these properties from the State of Minnesota. The city originally thought that the new Gladstone Fire Station might go on these properties or that the city would use part of the property for drainage or open space purposes. On March 27, 2000, the city council directed city staff and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) to buy from Ramsey County the four tax-forfeited properties on the west side of Van Dyke Street for the development of Iow to moderate or mixed income housing. DISCUSSION Since the city apparently no longer has a need for these sites for the original purposes, Maplewood now has to decide what to do with the property. Juli Stensland of the city attorney's office prepared a memo explaining the options and issues with acquiring these properties. (See the memo starting on page four.) If the city was to buy the property, then the city would have to use the site for a public purpose. . (According to the Attorney General, conveying the property to a private party is not a public purpose.) However, if the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) wants to buy the properties, they may buy them from the county for the county's appraised price (about $156,000). Such a purchase would prevent the county from putting the properties on their auction, which of course, would prevent anyone else from buying the property. By state law, the HRA would have to use the site for Iow to moderate income housing and to redevelop a blighted area. RECOMMENDATION Consider and take action on the purchase of the four tax-forfeit properties on the west side of Van Dyke Street between County Road B and Cope Avenue for the development of Iow to moderate or mixed income housing. p:secl l/taxforf, mem Attachments: 1.

Tax Forfeited Lands - Use Deeds February 18, 1999 I. Use Deeds The City of Maplewood has acquired property through use deeds that may be utilized for a public purpose such as open space or drainage. A question has been raised whether moderate income housing can be developed on property that was conveyed by a use deed. II. Three Options to Acquire Tax Forfeited Lands The three ways that the City of Maplewood can acquire tax forfeited lands are as follows: use deeds, a public auction or by purchasing the property at its appraised value for a public purpose. Because the property may be designated for residential housing, a use deed does not work for this situation. If a public auction was conducted, then anyone, including a developer, could bid on the property as well as the City. However, the City can preempt the auction and other bids if the City's Housing and Redevelopment Authority purchases the property at its appraised value. If the City wants to exercise a certain amount of control over the purchase of the property, the best option is to purchase the property at the appraised value. The City's Housing and Redevelopment Authority must purchase the property, rather than the City itself. If the City purchases land using public funds, the acquisition must be for a public purpose. Accordingly, the City could convey the property to a private party only if the public use was no longer necessary. If the sole purpose of the City's acquiring the property is to convey it to a private party, a public purpose does not exist. Attorney General Opinion, 425-C-11 (May 27, 1964); see also Attorney General Opinion 430 (Nov. 23, 1948) (attached). Therefore, the question referenced above has serious implications for the City because if a governmental subdivision to which tax forfeited land has been conveyed for a specified public use fails to put the land to that use or abandons that use, the land reverts back to the state of Minnesota. Minnesota Statutes, Section 282.01, subd. Id, lc. In addition, Ramsey County views any non-public use as suspect and I have been informed that the County will be taking a different position if the use is not specifically for the public. However, the property would not revert back to the state of Minnesota if the sale or other conveyance of tax forfeited lands is by a housing and redevelopment authority, an economic development 4 authority or a city as authorized by chapter 469. One of the purposes of a housing and redevelopment authority is to "remedy the shortage of housing for low and moderate income residents, and to redevelop blighted areas, in situations in which private enterprise would not act without government participation or subsidies." Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.001. A certificate made by a housing and redevelopment authority stating that "the conveyance has been made as authorized by chapter 469 may be filed with the county recorder or registrar of titles, and the fights of reverter in favor of the state ... will then terminate." Minnesota Statutes, Section 282.01, subd. Id. Therefore, if the property is to be used in accordance with the Housing and Redevelopment Authorities Act, the property would not revert back to the state of Minnesota. Chapter 469 also addresses targeted neighborhood revitalization programs. Inorder for this project to be a targeted neighborhood revitalization program, there are various eligibility requirements pertaining to cities of the second class, such as Maplewood. For example, one criteria for the program is that a city of the second class be designated as an economically depressed area by the United States Deparmaent of Commerce. Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.201, subd. 2. If the City of Maplewood would like to explore this option, further research would be requ'.n'ed. III. The Appraisal The appraisal would be conducted by Kristine Kujala, Supervisor of Tax Forfeited Land at the Department of Property Records and Revenue at Ramsey County. Patrick Kelly and I met with Ms. Kujala. Ms. Kujala stated that the property in question is approximately 3 ~ acres. She also stated that the price of the property would be the appraised value and is not subject to negotiation. However, our meeting with Ms. Kujala was very informative and we believe that we will be able to work with her if the City's Housing and Redevelopment Authority decides to purchase the property. IV. The Approval After Ms. Kujala appraises the land, a reconveyance application for each parcel would need to be submitted to the Tax Forfeited Land division. The application should include a statement of facts as to the use to be made of the property and the need for such property. The next step is for the Ramsey County Board and the State to approve the conveyance. However, Ms. Kujala did not emphasize the final approval process in our meeting and, therefore, I do not foresee this process hindering the acquisition of the property. Once the acquisition is approved, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority can exercise its discretion in selling the property to a private developer in accordance with chapter 469. Because of the involved process, the City may want to make inquiries regarding the developer before proceeding. However, it would be advisable not to get too closely involved with any particular developer because of public perception. 5 J J / I I MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: SUBJECT: DATE: City Manager Ken Roberts, Associate Planner HRA Vacancy April 20, 2000 INTRODUCTION There is a vacancy on the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA).
