CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING MAYOR AND CITY
MANAGER TO ENTER INTO PURCHASE DOCUMENTS FOR PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 16950 PANAMA AVENUE IN CONNECTION WITH
CONSTRUCTION OF PHASE III OF THE RING ROAD.
Historv: At its Novernber 4, 2002 City Council meeting, the City Council adopted
Resolution 02-183 authorizing staff to prepare a Feasibility Report for the
realignment and reconstruction of CSAH 23 and Five Hawks Avenue intersection
with TH13, and the third phase of the Ring Road from Duluth to TH13 as
approved by the Council in the 2003-2007 Capital Improvement Program.
At its January 21, 2003 meeting, the City Council took action authorizing the staff
to proceed with easement acquisitions necessary for construction of the 3'd Phase
of the Ring Road, accepting the Feasibility Report, and setting a public hearing for
February 18, 2003 at 7:30pm.
A rnap of the project area is attached. As you will see, the property at 16950
Panama Avenue (the current Thrift Store site) will be significantly impacted by the
project. This site is different from other cornmercial sites impacted by the
construction of the Ring Road in that removal of the building will be required.As
such, the staff began discussions with the property owner for acquisition of the
site.
Current Circumstances: The subject property is 52,300 foot site zoned C4 that is
improved with a 3600 square foot block building that was constructed in 1967.
The property is owned by Gary and Bonnie VanErp. There is also a current Lease
on the property through August 31, 2004 with Carole and William Stufflebeam,
who operate a non-profit Thrift Store on the site. The Lessee also has a right of
first refusal to purchase the property.
An appraisal of the property was prepared in October 2002 when discussions for
acquisition of the site began. The appraisal indicated a market value of $215,000.
This cornpares with an appraisal conducted in April 2000 of $182,000.
City staff, the Seller and Lessee have now negotiated terms subject to City
Council approval for the acquisition and lease of the property. Various documents
necessary to the acquisition were prepared in cooperation with the City Attorney's
office. Those documents include a Purchase Agreement, Assignment of Lease,
Addendurn to Lease, Waiver of Right of First Refusal and an Estoppel Certificate.

R:\COUNCIL AGENDA REPORTS\2003 DRAINl13l1Jlf\J!-rnl"NHQl'I1{B'I'll::lROMI;l\l3E2.DOC
Conclusion: The Council should determine if the property is required and if the
terms of the purchase are acceptable.
ISSUES:
Several steps took place to accommodate each of the parties to this purchase.
First, the terrns of the purchase had to be reached with the Seller, subject to City
Council approval. Second, the City needed to negotiate terms for the remainder of
the Lease term with the Lessee. Finally, a document was prepared terminating
the Lessee's right of first refusal. The terms or need for the Purchase Agreement,
Assignment of Lease, Lease Addendurn, Waiver of Right of First Refusal, and
Estoppel Certificate are set forth below:
Purchase Aqreernent: An appraisal completed in October of 2002 indicated that
the property had a market value of $215,000. The City has negotiated a
purchase price of $250,000 for the site. The terrns of the City's purchase involve
factors other than rnarket value. The property has value beyond the market value
because of the current Lease and the Lessee's right of first refusal. The City
would assume the Lease with a rnonthly rent of $1575 per month for the 17
months remaining in the Lease term. This means an additional $23,289 ($26,775
less property taxes) if the Lease term is fulfilled.
Staff believes it is in the best interest of the City to acquire the full parcel, rather
than only easements for the necessary right-of-way. The City will eventually need
to rernove the building from the site to complete the installation of the roadway.
Further, once the existing CSAH 23 and 170'h Street are vacated and turned back
to the City, additional land can be added to this site to make a larger, more
attractive, vacant developable parcel.
The City could authorize acquisition of the property via a 90-day quick take
condemnation action. (Actually, staff is also seeking the authority to condemn this
property as part of agenda item 10B. This action would only occur in the event the
City and Seller for some reason are unable to close the transaction.)
The City staff believes a negotiated sale of the property is likely to be more
favorable than condemnation. Not only does a negotiated sale garner the
cooperation of all parties, acquiring the property and Lease through
condemnation could potentially subject the City to state and federal statutes
regarding relocation costs. Because of this potential and our inability to determine
the potential exposure over and above the market value of the property, the City
staff believes a negotiated purchase involving the owner and Lessee is
appropriate.
Assiqnment of Lease and Lease Addendurn: As negotiated, the Seller would
assign the existing Lease to the City. The City Engineer and Public Works
Director have advised that construction of the project can be scheduled so that
the City can honor the current Lease term, which expires August 31, 2004. The
rent payment of $1575 per rnonth would be payable to the City over the remaining
17 months of the Lease term. The staff has negotiated the attached addendum to
the Lease Agreement executed by the Lessee, that would limit the City's liability
for rnaintenance or repairs to the building, not require the City to re-build or repair
the structure in the event of destruction or to carry fire or extended damage
R:ICOUNCIL AGENDA REPORTSI2003 DRAFTSITHRIFT STORE PURCHASE2.DOC
insurance, clarifying provisions and responsibilities under the Lease, and adding
the City's standard indemnity language to the contract.
In return, the City has agreed that if the Lessee in some manner acquires a
suitable location for its business prior to the expiration of the Lease term, it may
terminate the Lease upon 30 days written notice. In the event that the building is
destroyed or rendered uninhabitable for the conduct of the Lessee's business, the
City shall pay the lesser of the Lessee's actual costs to relocate, or $3150. Lastly,
if the Lessee fulfills the term of the Lease, the City will waive the final month's
rent. Of particular importance is that under the Lease Addendum, the Lessee
does not have the right to extend the Lease term beyond August 31, 2004.
Riaht of First Refusal: This document has been executed by the Lessee, and
waives the Lessee's right under the existing Lease Agreement to acquire the
property from the VanErps.
Estoppel Certificate. This docurnent has also been executed by the Lessee, and
establishes that the VanErps have fulfilled all of their responsibilities as Lessor
under the existing Lease Agreernent to date.
The City Attorney's office has either prepared or reviewed each of the documents
necessary to proceed with the terrns and conditions of this purchase, and has
found thern acceptable. The necessary documents have been executed by the
Seller and Lessee respectively and are attached hereto.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this purchase are proposed to be drawn from the Collector Street fund.
ALTERNATIVES: (1) Approve a Resolution Authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to enter into
all docurnents necessary for the purchase of property at 16950 Panama
Avenue as proposed.
(2) Take no action and direct staff accordingly.
RECOMMENDED
MOTION: Alternative (1).
