MEMORANDUM

FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director ~
DA: August 5, 1994
RE: REQUEST FOR TIF ASSISTANCE AND FINANCING PACKAGE FOR
DOWNTOWN HOTEL
The attached financing program and TIF assistance request has been received from the Lumber
Exchange Hotel Partnership. The project financing proposal asks for city assistance in 3 areas,
(1) economic recovery fund request, (2) $515,000 forgivable loan (Selling price $1,150,000
rather then $635,000) and (3) "Pay as you go" TIF assistance based on increased value of the
project.
The city council previously authorized city staff to make application for the state DTED
Economic Recovery fund $250,000 regarding the forgivable loan the developer is requesting a
$515,000 increased value in the selling price based on previously prepared appraisals. This
action would not cost the city economically and is legal according to the city attorney.
Regarding "pay as you go" TIF assistance, it is difficult to determine the exact TIF proceeds
from the project at this time. It has been staffs recommendation to make "pay as you go" TIF
assistance available for the project but no "up front" or city bonded assistance.
The other proposed sources of funds - developer equity, SBA, tourism loan and conventional
bank fmancing - does not effect the city and are the developers responsibility.
A specific TIF "pay as you go" figure can be developed with the county assessor when more
detailed plans are prepared. The last hotel project generated approximately $30,000/year of
assistance for your information. TIF assistance would run until 2010.
Recommendation:
Consideration of request for:
1. $515,000 forgivable loan
2. "Pay as you go" TIF assistance.
Attachments:

3.
Request for financing assistance.

3.) To accommodate thepioposed historical renovation of the Lumber ExchaIlgeProperty, _
. there must first be demolition and removal of structures; fixtures, windows, etc. With
each of these activities there will. be a corresponding reduction of collateral value until
a point where the renovation can begin. The process of the transaction to include full
value at acquisition creates the necessary cushion to allow the principals to comfortably
'prepare the site for the, renovation in a manner that is critical from the lender's
prospective w~ile preserving the liquidation date in value of the collateral.

The acquisition structure that is being proposed is intended to be a creative financing mechanism
that has the least complications related to the overall process. An overview of the structure is
as follows:
The acquisition price would be $1, 150tOOO. At the time of closing and transfer of ownership of
the property, the city of 'Stillwater will receive$635tOOO. The balance of the acquisition,
$515,000, will be forgiven at the time of closing in consideration of: .

MEMORANDUM
TO:
FROM:
Mayor and City Council
Diane Deblon, Finance Director
RE:
Financial Implications of Hotel Request
DATE:
February 25, 1994
The developer of the hotel has requested and/or proposed specific financial
terms that will impact on the City's financial status.
The 1994 Budget includes income from this lease in the amount of $55,000. An
amount less than this will have a negative impact on the 1994 Budgeted
revenues.
The special assessments are for the Downtown Improvement project and are being
paid by CUB. Any reduction and/or elimination of these assessments will have
a negative impact on the bonds sold to finance that project.
I have previously estimated the amount of net TIF generated by the hotel project
at approximately $32,000 per year. Further, it is my recommendation to the City
Council that if the tax increment assistance is provided, it should be on a pay-
as-you-go basis, with the City NOT bonding for the project.
August 5, 1994
A preliminary review of TIF funds available from the purchase of the building
from CUB indicates that there won't be additional money available for the
development of the Hotel.
Final numbers won't be available until actual payment to CUB and subsequent
transfer of property to the 81. Croix Preservation Company has been completed.

ADDENDUM 1
STATEMENT CONCERNING "BUT FOR" TEST
We, the proposed developers of the Lumber Exchange Hotel property in downtown Stillwater,
acknowledge that but for the availability of Tax Increment Financing Assistance our ability to
successfully undertake this project will be diminished for the following reason:
e
* We will be investing at least $400,000 of cash equity into this project to provide
financing for acquisition and demolition activities. As a result of these activities the
value of the property will decrease until a point where renovation of the facility can
begin. Because of the large renovation and demolition costs associated with this project,
coupled with the significant up-front investment of the developers and limited recapture
of value associated with the finished product, it is necessary to utilize Tax Increment
Financing, likely on a Pay-as-you-go method, to generate a reasonable return on our
investment with a reasonable level of risk.

ADDENDUM 3
DEVELOPERS' WILLINGNESS TO PROCEED
Wet the proposed developers of the Lumber Exchange property in downtown Stillwater, MN,
hereby express our commitment to proceed on the renovation of this facility into a high quality
hotel and conference center after the following have been accomplished:
* A satisfactory agreement can be reached between ourselves and the City to provide an
appropriate level of TIP assistance for public improvements;
* That the debt and equity financing package, as outlined, is successfully secured within
the timeframe of the scheduled closing as outlined in our purchase agreement;
* The economic feasibility of the project is analyzed and confirmed as required to assure
an acceptable return and benefit to ourselves and the City.
As developers of this project we are prepared to proceed under these provisions and provide
personal guarantees as necessary to secure the debt financing required to complete this project.

PROPOSED PROJECT FINANCING
. ~. ...

I \e
PROJECT FINANCING
We are proposing to fund the project through a combination of Bank, SBA, State of Minnesota,
and equity sources of fmancing, including Tax Increment Financing. Because the facility has
been appraised at a value far higher than the mutually agreed purchase price of $635,000, we
have increased the .overall. acquisition to $1,150,000. As a result of this increase, we would
propose to utilize the difference between these costst $515,000 as a unsecured loan with no
scheduled payback, forgivable at the time of closing in consideration of renovation consistent
with community goals, enhancement of the local tax base, and job creation. From a lender's
standpoint, this serves as additional equity and helps to leverage the necessary debt financing.
With this in mind, the overall Uses and Sources of financing are as follows:

It should be noted that the repayment from the State Economic Recovery Grant can be retained
by the city to capitalize a Revolving Loan Fund for other development projects. Based on
minimum retention of $100,000 of principal plus interest, the City should net over $230,000
over the next 11 years. .

ADDENDUM 1
STATEMENT CONCERNING "BUT FOR" TEST
We, the proposed developers of the Lumber Exchange Hotel property in downtown Stillwater,
acknowledge that but for the availability of Tax Increment Financing Assistance our ability to
successfully undertake this project will be diminished for the following reason:
e
* We will be investing at least $400,000 of cash equity into this project to provide
financing for acquisition and demolition activities. As a result of these activities the
value of the property will decrease until a point where renovation of the facility can
begin. Because of the large renovation and demolition costs associated with this project,
coupled with the significant up-front investment of the developers and limited recapture
of value associated with the finished product, it is necessary to utilize Tax Increment
Financing, likely on a Pay-as-you-go method, to generate a reasonable return on our
investment with a reasonable level of risk.

ADDENDUM 3
DEVELOPERS' WILLINGNESS TO PROCEED
We, the proposed developers of the Lumber Exchange property in downtown Stillwatert MN,
hereby express our commitment to proceed on the renovation of this facility into a high quality
hotel and conference center after the following have been accomplished:
* A satisfactory agreement can be reached between ourselves and the City to provide an
appropriate level of TIP assistance for public improvements;
* That the debt and equity financing package, as outlined, is successfully secured within
the timeframe of the scheduled closing as outlined in our purchase agreement;
* The economic feasibility of the project is analyzed and confirmed as required to assure
an acceptable return and benefit to ourselves and the City.
As developers of this project we are prepared to proceed under these provisions and provide
personal guarantees as necessary to secure the debt financing required to complete this project.

RE: Appraisal Report
Burlington Northern Property
127 Water Street
Stillwater, Minnesota
Dear Mr. Russell:
In accordance with your request, I have personally inspected and
hereby submit an appraisal report on the above referenced
property legally described in the text of this report.
The property consists of a office/retail building located at 217
Water Street and vacant railroad land in downtown Stillwater.
After careful analysis of the property, location and market
characteristics~ it is my opinion that as of November 9, 1990,
the fair market value of the lessor's interest in the subject
property is:
ONE MILLION TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-FIVE THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS
($1,275,300,000)
Note: A portion of the property has ground contamination. I was
unable to obtain the particulars on the nature of the
contamination or the cleanup cost. The value reflected herein
represents the value of the property as though there were no
contamination. The pollution situation should be checked out
carefully by anyone contemplating an interest in the property and
cleanup cost deducted from the above estimated value.
Your attention is called to the accompanying report which
descr es the property and sets forth my analysis in arriving at
a v u conclusion.

HISTORIC HOTEL SITE
\..
The 1890 historic three story Lumberman's Exchange
Building at 127 Water Street, Stillwater, HN
(8,000 square feet plus per floor): the adjoining
one story tormer Hooley's Supermarket (15,000 plus
square teet) and the parking lot directly to the
north. All properties front Lowell Park and the
scenic St. Croix riverway.
As the previous location for the Lumber Exchange and a
now missing railroad depot, the appropriate development
o~ this site is considered by restorationists to be the
key to continued preservation and growth.
Located at the center of a Nationally Registered historic
business district with the St. Croix river and Lowell
Park a neighbor to the east, the City gazebo at the north
azul the historic lift bridge to the south, this site is
the central focus of actiVity in Stillwater and
surrounding communities.
The Hotel sits on the river mid-way between the Zephyr
depot and museWII to the north, the St. Croix PaCket
paddlewheel doCks to the south and the Main Street strip
of shops, restaurants and tourist attractions is adjacent
"to the west.
{
{
..
,.
\
~~
It has consistently been selected by both city planners
aDd previous consultants as the best site for a botel I
coa~erence center ta the Stillwater area. The recently
approved restoration and ezpansion of the levee wall and
Lowell park with .fthanced parking and pedestrian walkways
dramatically improves the value of this excellent site.

LOCATION
f'"
f
~'-
Nestled in the beautiful St. Croix Valley just 20 miles
east of Minneapolis / St. Paul and 40 minutes from their
airport is the historic river town of Stillwater. Its
steep hills aclutter with Victorian homes and mansions
bring visions of New England. An historic commercial
district is bustling with shoppers looking for just the
right item in its many antique and specialty shops, art
galleries and boutiques. '1'0 add to the enchantment, the
St. Croix river flows tranquilly under a historic lift
bridge which is the central focus of the downtown area.
As if this natural charm and historic flavor alone were
not enough to create a mecca for tourists, a restored
dinner train, railroad museum, antique style trolleys for
people movers, water skiing, jet skiing, residential
trolley tours, boating, golfing, fishing, rock climbing,
bike trails, paddlewheel cruises, balloon rides, and
downhill and cross-country skiing, are all available to
the 2.5 million residents of the Twin Cities metro area.
.'
\
To accommodate the tourists, Stillwater's hospitality
trade has developed into a unique blend of indiVidually
owned and operated restaurants, bars, bed and breakfast
izms, and one small hotel in the historic downtown. This
lack of national chain look-alikes adds to the influx of
people aeeking that special place to spend their time and
money.

MARKET FACTORS
The market for the proposed development originates from
five basic sources:
1. Restaurant / Lounge
2. Conventions/Meetings
3. Special Events
4. Touri sm
5. Commercial Accounts

Stillwater's eating establishments tend to fall into one
of two categories;
1. Bars whic:b _ also serve food suc:b as Cat Ballou's,
Trumps, Madcapper, and Freight House.
2. Full service restaurants such as Vittorio's and
'the Lowell Inn, whose quality anc1 service fall well below
their reputations.
The only ezceptions to these categories in town seem to
be The Dcc:Jc Cafe with an upscale menu and, of course, The
Brunswick Inn with a priz-fiz, ezpensi ve menu.
A quality, full service restaurant located in an historic
hotel on the river will do quite well with both local and
'tourist business if they provide quality food aI1Cl service
in an elegant atmosphere.

COMVnf'l'IOMS fM":J1!f'INGS
W1'th easy access to the '1'win Cities, historic ~. 'the
river, ezcellent golf couraes, aDd a large 881ec:ti= of
free time activities, the Stillwater 8Dvi~t is
perfect for conventions, meetings and business retreats.
As no facility currently ezists which can meet the needs
of potential customers this market segment represents the
greatest potential for growth.

Courthouse which for 1994 was booked every weekend
through year-end by March 15th. This is an excellent
facility, but provides no food or beverage service and
has only one room for function use.
'rOtTRISM
..' '..
This -town that time forgot- certainly knows how to draw
a crowd. An excellent assortment of tourist related
husinesses cater to the Twin Cities market with upscale
shops, antiques, ):)outiques, restaurants, bars,
paddleboats,trains, golf courses and a myriad other
entertaimaents. Current e.zcess demand for available
rooms each weekend will alone provide an opening average
occupancy of 30t on Thursdays, 60t on Fridays, 90t on
Saturdays and 25' for Sundays. This represents a tot31
average rate of 38' from current overflows alone. Room
bookings from tourism will increase as the public becomes
aware quality hotel accommodations are now available in
Stillwater. .

CO~CIAL

"'. :~~:'":..z
Az1c!erson Windows is the closest major generator of room
night demand in the area. At present they are using the
Beat Western Hudson Haase in Hudson, Wisconsin 15 .iles
away to serve their needs and often use a bus to
transport guests between the motel and the plant. 'fbey
would like a facility closer to the plant and prefer a
faCility with COJIfortable rooms, food service, beverage
service and banquet meetings. They are very interested
in a change if they ac:h1eve rates competitive with area
market.
3H' s corporate COIDplez is located about 15 JDinutea away
aDcl many of their Idd to tipper lICIDagemez1t employees
reside in 'the Stillwater 8%'8a. '1'h1s UDtapped accoant is
an ezcellent source for eoanercial room and Jll88ting
revenue.

Overnight corporate retreats from the Twin Cities
represent another major untapped room market to the area.
Dae to Stillwater'. reputation as a quaint, quiet, get-
away, major companies consistently look to the area for
their needs, but have not preViously found a reasonably
priced - yet high quality location.

THE COMPETITION
In the downtown area of Stillwater there is currently
only one botel, the Lowell Inn. It bas 21 guest rooms
'that tend to be small and very e.zpensive. Their rates
ran from $209 to $279 wbich includes dinner, breakfast
and gratuities on weekends. During the week they reduce
rates by $10.
Several years ago the Lowell was acquired from Art Palmer
(son of the original developers) by a group of investors
and subsequently bas begun to look very tired. While it
continues to live off former reputation, its average
customer is now well beyond middle age and it seems to be
generating little new business.
There are several Bed and Breakfast Inns in the old town
area which operate as couples retreats with a limited
market. Rates run frODl $70 to $149 per clay. Due to
Stillwater's restrictive ordinance, there should be few
acldi tional operations in the future.
The only other accommodations in Stillwater are located
em Highway 36, a commuter road away from the main tourist
area. 'l'he Stillwater Inn and Super 8 are both economy
lodging and neither provides food and beverage or
canvention facilities.

WHY THE LUMBER EXCHANGE INH WiLL SUCCEED
The Inn's success is based on the following facts and
assumptions :
f
~ '
: ~~
Pact:
The three partners proposing the Lumber Exchange Inn
have succeeded in all ventures/positions C see
resumes) .
I
f
,
f
, L
! ..
r
.' -.j.
. ,
Fact: The partners are experienced as current owners of a
combined five inns and one restaurant. Additionally,
one of the non-restaurant partners formerly served
as operations manager for a chain ot eight Burger
Kings .
Pact: The partners current properties have received
considerable media exposure due to the aqgressi ve
lIarketing of the partners and have been called by
aany as the finest and most successful inns in the
st. Croix valley. The partners' Inns have been
~eatured in Country Inns, Kidvest Living, Old HOlle
Journal, Wisconsin Restaurateur, and ]lany
Kinneapolis - St. Paul publications.
Fact: -Loc:ation-location-location.. That is a primary rule
in real estate principles clearly met by the proposed
inn. Addi tionally, an Inn/Conference Center is
arguably the best use for the location.
Fact: Weekend business at the I.,ITlllhoer Exchanqe Inn should
i-9d.iately approach 100' occapanc:y. This would
pa1: the Inn at aD bmaediate overaJ.l occupancy of
approxiJllately 35'. This is due to both:
1. Location
2. OVerflow froll the partners existing inns.
Pact: Midweek business shall 1Ieet or exceed projections
'~rom the folloving categories:
1. Business Clients/conferences.
2. Tourist trade - May through December.
J. Repeat guests recognizing the reduced midweek
rates.
This should allow the inn to average overall
e
I,,..
-7-
'. ('
"
.' :or, f:9,!
:- ~.. .
,
Pact:
~upancy of 50' by year end. Projected occu~cy
shoul.d reach 58 'to 60' by 1:he end of the second
year and exceed 65' by year three.
Pact: There is an econOJlly of scale in operating the Lnmh.er
Exchange Inn in proxiJdty 1:0 the partners current
properties. !!lis relates 1:0 ref'errals, aanageJIeDt
and purchasing.
Pact: The restaurantjbar facility viII be designed and
located 1:0 succeed by itself but will be eMancoed by
patronage of hotel and couven1:ion guests. Lodqinq-
restaurant pacJcages viII be a1:tracti.ely designed for
overnight guests and can be a requir_ent for weekend
guests if neeessary.
The st. croix Valley is in need of this convention/
conference facility for both business aeetinqs and
shows and social events such as weddinqs and school
reunions.

EXHmlT 5
PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT/NEED FOR ASSISTANCE
As outlined in the St. Croix Preservation Company's Business Plan, this project involves the
complete renovation of the Lumber Exchange Building in compliance with requirements for
Historical Preservation. The public improvements, as allowable Ta Increment Financing
expenditures include:
· Acquisition of existing facility - $ 635,000
· Removal of existing windows, leaseholds, etc. - $ 250,000
· Demolition of Hooley's Facility. $ 200,000
· Soft Costs/Engineering & Architectural - $ 50.000
· Interest on Construction Financing - $ 65.000
Total Public Improvements
$1,200,000
The developers will be investing at least $400,000 of cash equity into this project to provide
financing for acquisition and demolition activities. As a result of these activities the value of
the property will decrease until a point where renovation of the facility can begin.
Because of the large renovation and demolition costs associated with this project, coupled with
the significant up-front investment of the developers and limited recapture of value associated
with the finished product, it is necessary to utilize Tax Increment Financing, likely on a Pay-as-
you-go method, to generate a reasonable return on investment.

PUBLIC BENEFIT
This project is anticipated to have significant economic, aesthetic, and commercial benefit to the
City of Stillwater. It will result in the development of a high quality Hotel and Conference
facility which has been identified as a priority of the community and is deemed to be the highest
and best use of this specific property.
In addition, the project will provide the following benefits to the area:
* New job creation is estimated to be approximately SO positions once the facility has
become fully operational. These jobs are expected to provide an average wage rate
starting at $7.00/hour and increasing to over $9.00/hour.
* It is anticipated that the project will generate over S40,OOO/year in new property tax
revenue for the community. 100% of this tax revenue will be enjoyed by the taxing
jurisdictions after the appropriate return has been achieved by the developers.
* The lodging aspect of the project has a market niche that is primarily from outside the
immediate Stillwater area, thus generating new spending in the community. Among the
top priorities of Economic Development is to increase new dollars flowing into the
community .
The developers of the project enthusiastically look forward to completing this project in
cooperation with the City of Stillwater.

ADDENDUM 1
STATEMENT CONCERNING "BUT FOR" TEST
We, the proposed developers of the Lumber Exchange Hotel property in downtown Stillwater,
acknowledge that but for the availability of Tax Increment Financing Assistance our ability to
successfully undertake this project will be diminished for the following reason:
* We will be investing at least $400,000 of cash equity into this project to provide
financing for acquisition and demolition activities. As a result of these activities the
value of the property wiII decreaSe until a point where renovation of the facility can
begin. Because of the large renovation and demolition costs associated with this project,
coupled with the significant up-front investment of the developers and limited recapture
of value associated with the finished product, it is necessary to utilize Tax Increment
Financing, likely on a Pay-as-you.go method, to generate a reasonable return on our
investment with a reasonable level of risk.

LOCATION

f
~
L
f,
.1.
Nestled in the beautiful St. Croix Valley just 20 miles
east of Minneapolis / St. Paul and 40 minutes from their
airport is the historic river town of Stillwater. Its
steep hills aclutter with Victorian homes and mansions
hring visions of New England. An historic commercial
district is bustling with shoppers looking for just the
right item in its many antique and specialty shops, art
galleries and boutiques. To add to the enchantment, the
St. Croix river flows tranquilly under a historic lift
hridge which is the central focus of the downtown area.
As if this natural charm and historic flavor alone were
Dot enough to create a mecca for tourists, a restored
dinner train, railroad museum, antique style trolleys for
people movers, water skiing, jet skiing, residential
trOlley tours, boating, golfing, fishing, rock climbing,
hike trails, paddlewheel cruises, balloon rides, and
downhill and cross-country skiing, are all available to
the 2.5 million residents of the Twin Cities metro area.
....... ,~.
.' ...::'..:. ;..~
To accommodate the tourists, Stillwater's hospitality
trade has developed into a unique blend of individually
owned and operated restaurants, bars, bed and breakfast
inns, and one small hotel in the historic downtown. This
lack of national chain look-alikes adds to the influx of
people seeking that special place to spend their time and
money.

ADDENDUM 3
DEVELOPERS' WILLINGNESS TO PROCEED
We, the proposed developers of the Lumber Exchange property in downtown Stillwater, MN,
hereby express our commitment to proceed on the renovation of this facility into a high quality
hotel and conference center after the following have been accomplished:
* A satisfactory agreement can be reached between ourselves and the City to provide an
appropriate level of TIF assistance for public improvements;
* That the debt and equity financinj package, as outlined, is successfully secured within
the timeframe of the scheduled closing as outlined in our purchase agreement;

MEMORANDUM
e
TO: Mayor and City Council
FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director ~
DA: August 5, 1994
RE: CONSIDERATION OF TIF ASSISTANCE FOR RELOCATION OF UBC TO
INDUSTRIAL PARK AND PURCHASE OF DOWNTOWN SITE FOR PARKING
Back~round: .
The downtown plan documented the need for additional parking spaces in the downtown South
Main Street area, To address that need, the UBC site was identified as having the greatest
potential for providing additional parking,
After the city began discussion with UBC for the purchase of the site, it became apparent that an
old NSP gas manufacturing use was located on the site and the site was in need of clean up, The
City of Stillwater participated with UBC and the HRA to prepare an environmental study of the
site. The study resulted in the identification ofNSP as the source of pollution, They are
assuming responsibility for cleanup. (See attached letter from UBC,)
e
Earlier this year, the city council ordered appraisals on the UBC sites. The appraisals split the
UBC site in two parts east and west of Second Street. The total value of the two sites according
to the appraisal is $399,000,
UBC has agreed to sell the two sites to the city for that amount and they would payoff
assessments of $20,000+, UBC has located a 3,5 acre site along Washington Avenue just north
of the Brine's Building where they would like to locate, The cost of the site is $249,500 and is
owned by Bill Pauley, He is willing to sell the site for that amount but would.like buyer to pay
two years of back taxes or $20,000 in addition to the $249,500 amount.
F or tax purposes, UBC needs to exchange their downtown facility for a new facility in the
business park. The city would have to act as the exchange agent for this to occur.
Of the two sites owned by UBC in the downtown, the storage site west of Second Street can
accommodate approximately 150 parking spaces with minimal improvements, The retail
building costs the most $225,000 and would take another $225,000 to create 30 - 50 parking
spaces, The city does not have the TIF at this time to invest in the building site, Mr, Dick
Anderson has indicated an interest in the building for a commercial use in the attached letter
from Robert Briggs.
e
NSP has also indicated an interest in purchasing the storage material site to facilitate its cleanup
and to lease it back to the city at its cost. The city would have the first right of refusal should the
site become excess land to NSP at sometime in the future, See attached letter from NSP, Jerry
.
Winslow.
Below is a listing of the transactions that are part of this deed:
e
1. City purchase new UBC site from Mr. Pauley ($245,500 UBC),
2, City construct UBC building ($685,000 UBC)),
3, City will purchase downtown site from UBC:
a. East of 2nd Street $225,000 (Anderson)
b. West of 2nd Street $174,000 (NSP)
4. City lease west of 2nd site from NSP
This arrangement would result in city having no long term cost for purchase of land but result in
the city leasing the UBC downtown land west of 2nd Street for a 150 car parking facility. It is
estimated the cost of constructing a parking lot is $100,000 to $150,000 depending on
improvements, TIF funds should be available next budget year to make the improvements. The
new lot would be available by this time next year,
Recommendation:
Review, discussion and direct staff to negotiate draft necessary document to complete
transactions.

RE: Stillwater Manufactured Gas Plant:
Site Acquisition and Disposition
Dear Mr, Russell:
The purpose of this letter is to document our discussions 'regarding the acquisition and
ultimate disposition of the property formerly occupied by the Stillwater Manufactured
Gas Plant (MGP).
Northern States Power Company (NSP), the City of Stillwater (City), and United
Building Cent~r (UBC) have discussed the following conceptual approach for
developing the property into a parking lot:
1, NSP indemnifies the City relative to its prior use of the site as an MGP,
and the City purchases the site and adjacent property from UBC.
2. Assuming the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) requires NSP
to remediate the property, NSP repurchases the site from the City at the
City's cost. .
3. Once use has vacated the property, NSP remediates the site as directed
by the response action plan approved by the MPCA.
4, The MPCA issues NSP and the City a certificate of completion denoting
what, if any, land use restrictions will be applicable.
5,
. '
NSP grants the City a long term lease to the property subject to MPCA
requirements, if any, The rent charged will be at or below the market rate
for similar property. Included in the lease, NSP will grant the City first
ri'ghts of refusal to repurchase the site at its reasonable market value at
AUG- 5-94 FRI 11:34
NSP ERAD
FAX NO. 3306357
P. 02
e
. ~uch time as the MPCA has fully approved the clean up for both soil and
groundwater and NSP no longer needs to maintain an interest in the
property in order to manage its potential liability under st~te, federal, or
local laws.
NSP believes this approach accommodates the interests of all three parties and hereby
pledges its assistance in pursuing this approach. It must be understood, however, that
none of the parties can predict or control the actions of the MPCA, and until NSP
completes the remedial investigation, the extent and the severity of contamination at
the site and the potential remedial measures or expenditures that may be required to
clean up the site are not known. Certainly, one or more of these factors may cause the
City or NSP to amend the approach described above. Despite these present
uncertainties, NSP assures the City that it will make every reasonable effort to
accommodate the City in this project.
If you have any questions regarding this approach or NSP's position on this matter,
please let me know at 330-2928.
Sincerely.

Stephen Russell,
Community Development Director
216 N. 4th Street
Stillwater, Minnesota 55082
Dear Mr. Russell:
Pursuant to our conversation on July 22, 1994, regarding the purchase of 3.5
acres of Outlot "A" in the Stillwater Industrial Park, I shall try to recon-
struct the real estate transaction between United Building Centers - Washington
County HRA and B. J. Pauley - Violet E. Kern.
In October of 1992 a purchase agreement was signed for 3.5 acres (152,467 S.F.)
of Outlot "A" for the sum of two hundred, forty-nine thousand, five hundred
dollars, ($249,500.00), with the seller paying off the balance of the outstand-
ing assessments. Taxes were to be prorated to date of closing which was set
on or before November 15, 1992.
In January, 1993, the purchase was amended to read that the buyer (UBC-HRA)
would be responsible for the taxes incurred after January 1, 1993, with the
closing date set on or before March 31, 1993.
In June, 1993 the sellers received a letter from representatives of UBC-HRA
stating that they would not be going forward with the purchase.
e
Attached are copies of the statements of property taxes payable in the years
1993 and 1994. These statements cover 6.33 acres of Outlot "A", whereas the
purchase agreement is for 3.5 acres. The following is a breakdown of the taxes
attributed to the 3.5 acres for the years 1993 and 1994.
Taxes paid in
1993
1994
Total amount of taxes paid
on 6.33 acres
$21,958.90
26,732.96
$48,691. 86
or
$48,691.86 divided by 6.33 acres equals $7,692.23 per acre.
$7,692.23 times 3.5 acres equals $26,922.82,
which is the amount of taxes and assessments paid for the years
1993 and 1994.
As per the original purchase
assessments which are reduced
Principal reduction
agreement, the
as follows:
in 1993
in 1994
Total reduction of principal
on 6.33 acres
seller was to payoff the
$ 6,182.33
6,182.33
$12,364.66
e
or
$12,364.66 divided by 6.33 acres equals $1953.34 per acre.
$1953.34 times 3.5 acres equals $6,836.69.
-
The total amount of taxes paid on 3.5 acres was $26,922.82
Less the amount of principal reduction of assessments
on 3.5 acres 6,836.69
e
Total amo~nt of taxes attributable to 3.5 acres for the years 1993 and 1994
was
$20,086.13
Inasmuch as the sale price has not beeri adjusted upward to reflect any of the
holding costs since the time of the initial agreement and if the sellers are
willing to accept deferment of payment until March of 1995, it would seem
reasonable to ask that the buyers would be willing to absorb the real estate
taxes from January 1, 1993 until the transaction is completed.
Yours ..~.~~~

RE: UBC Building Letter of Intent
Dear steve:
Please be advised that I have been authorized by Richard J.
Anderson, President of st. croix catering, Inc. ("company") to
forward this letter indicating the Company's intent to purchase the
UBC Building in the City of stillwater.
Should the City acquire the UBC Retail Space located East of Second
Street in the City, the Company is willing to purchase that site
for a cash purchase price of $225,000.00. It is understood that
the storage space utilized by UBC and located West of Second street
would not be included in the purchase. The Company's obligation
to complete the purchase is contingent on the normal contingency
of marketable title, including any soil tests or studies to insure
my client that the property has no pollution or contaminant
problem. In addition, my client's obligation to purchase and the
City's obligation to sell would be contingent on the parties
agreeing on an acceptable use of the property.
This letter of intention to purchase the property shall remain in
effect for the balance of the 1994 calendar year, unless extended
in writing.

From: Mal)' Kueffner, City of Lake Elmo
Date: August 1, 1994
Subject: Formation of Multi-Community Human Rights Commission
e
The City of Lake Elmo is in the process of developing a Human Rights Commission. After
discussion at one of our Council meetings, it was suggested that I contact each of you to see if
there was any interest in forming a multi-community Human Rights Commission, rather than each
community having its own separate Commission,
The Minnesota Department of Human Rights is responsible for investigation of any formal
charges of unlawful discrimination. In an effort to foster a positive climate that discourages
discrimination or unfair treatment, local commissions have taken a proactive role, and have
typically developed educational and informational activities related to human relations issues and
human rights laws.
Local Commissions do not investigate complaints and have no power of enforcement. However,
most have some process through which local residents may express a concern or specific
grievance. The formality of the process varies with each commission. Some commissions have
received formal training to participate in the No-Fault Grievance process. Others attempt to
mediate a situation in a less formal manner and refer the grievant to the State of the Dispute
Resolution Center, if necessal)', At a minimum, most commissions provide residents the
opportunity to bring an issue to their attention. Not only does this serve the particular grievant,
but it also keeps the commission appraised of local issues or concems,
Proposal for Multi-Community Human Relations Commission
In establishing a Human Relations Commission, the recommended overall objective would be to
foster, through education and public information, general awareness and understanding of human
relation and human rights issues and laws in the communities, Following is a list of various
activities and efforts that could be used to achieve this objective.
e
Formation of Multi-Community Human Rights Commission
.,
08/01/94Page 2
1. Advise each City Council or Town Board on matters related to human relations and
recommend the adoption of policies or actions as needed to promote equal opportunity and
harmony in the communities.
2, Work in partnership with all school districts within the communities to promote
awareness,faimess and equity among the youth of our community,
3, Recognize individuals and groups for their contribution to furthering human rights in
the communities,
4. Develop educational/informational materials and activities to promote awareness and
foster a positive climate,
5, Participate in training and overall education opportunities in the area of human rights/
relations so the commissioners may respond and plan accordingly,
6, Consider the need for establishment of a grievance procedure to hear concerns from
residents -- (Refer residents to the MN Department of Human Rights or the Dispute
Resolution Center when appropriate), and if determined advisable, make
recommendations to the participating communities concerning such a process.
Oraanizational Considerations
If we choose to establish a Multi-Community Human Relations Commission, we may want to
consider that the Commission includes at least one Council member or Town Board member;
perhaps one student and/or teacher from each school in the participating communities, and
members at large from our community. The Commission's membership should reflect the
diversity of our communities,
Membership with the League of Minnesota Human Rights Commissions is also an option, The
annual fee is $4.25 per thousand residents (each community would pay their portion), In addition
to providing on-going support and assistance, the League produces a newsletter and sponsors a
variety of educational events and seminars.
The League of Minnesota Human Rights Commission, founded in 1971 and reorganized in 1987,
is a coalition of local Human Rights Commissions. Member commissions elect a Board of
Directors wh,o work to provide informational and educational support to the local commissions,
More recently, the League received a grant from the McKnight Foundation to conduct a
"Campaign against Hate and Bigotry." A key element of this campaign is to encourage the
establishment of local Human Rights Commissions throughout the State,
Examples of activities sponsored bv local Commissions:
1. The City of Maplewood has a seven member commission that meets on a monthly basis,
1992 activities by the commission sponsored in 1992 included:
· Diversity Award Presentation
· Black History Month- guest reader at elementary schools
· Human Rights Award Presentation
· Publicity for Martin Luther Kind Day and Human Rights Day observances,
(Le" information packets and posters.)

3, The City of Shoreview has recently appointed a seven member commission that also intends
to sponsor educational and information activities for city staff and the community,
/ ~,any community is interested in joining Lake Elmo in establishing a Multi-Community Human
~ights Commission, I would appreciate hearing from you by August 15, 1994.
