ROSEMOUNT PORT AUTHORITY PROCEEDINGS
REGULAR MEETING
MAY 4, 1994
Port authority attorney Miles upda.ted the board on the staxus of negotiations with the Mullers.
Miles directed the board's attention to several letters of correspondence showing unsuccessful
attempts to schedule a meeting. Miles did explain, however, that the Mullers have taken a position
that they wish to proceed with their initial proposal submitted on July 28, 1993, where the port -
authority issues bonds for their theater project and where they purchase the land and improvements
for a total sum of approximately $250,000. Staff was directed to continue trying to determine
whether the Mullers will meet and continue negotiations.
Commissioner McMenomy left his chair at 7:37 p.m. and returned at 7:39 p.m.
Economic Development Coordinator Miller reviewed the infrastructure schedule for the Rosemount
Business Park. Miller explained that before road and utility construction can begin in early June,
the fmal plat must be recorded with Dakota County and must be done within 30 days after city
coui�cii a�p��vai. ��,ause t�E p��t auihority i3a� 110 j3li1Ci1aS� �g�'�T128I1i, VJ1tI'1 t�l� Mti�IOPS fOP iI18 t�Tl
acre parcel shown on the plat as Lot 1, Block 1, Miller advised that the board has two options.
They can either keep the lot and attempt to market it to another user, or replat the lot into other
conf'igurations or sizes. Discussion ensued regarding filing the fmal plat Avith the county but
delaying the road and utility construction until land has been sold. Staff was directed to submit the
fmal plat, as approved by city council, to Dakota County.
Economic Development Coordinator provided an update on the port au�hority/HRA senior housing
project. Miller advised that the HRA is in the process of implementing an agreement, but the issue
of whether to build a three story or two story building must be resolved. The HRA will initiate
voluntary acquisition of properties this summer (1994) and has been working with Peoples Natural
Gas to resolve the gas line issue. An answer as to whether the gas line is abandoned or in use
should be available by July 1, 1994. Miller was directed to investigate the cost difference between
the two and three story structures and determine what part of the costs will have to be picked up by
the city.
Chair Carroll commented that he liked the luxury of extra time to discuss agenda items without the
pressure of a time limit. He again suggested that the port authority may want to consider having at
least one meeting on another night other than city council night.
Renee Stevenson questioned the board regarding the senior housing project and whether additional
properties would need to be acquired if it were decided to build a two story versus a three story
building.
MOTION by Carroll to adjourn. SECOND by Edwards. Meeting adjourned at 8:11 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Deborah Widstrom
Recording Secretary
