CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOL ON 96-19 ENHANCING
CITY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT RESOURCES TO MEET
FUTURE NEEDS.
FEBRUARY 20, 1996
AGENDA #:
PREPARED BY:
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this memorandum is to recommend reformatting
of the City's Economic Development Resources in a fashion which
will better meet current and future needs. A resolution is included,
as is a new set of bylaws for the Economic Development
Authority.
DISCUSSION:
At the February 5th, 1996 City Council meeting the Council took
final action to approve its 1996 Goals and Objectives as
discussed at the January 19 and 20 Workshop.
The Goals and Objectives, as approved are very aggressive in the
area of economic development. The goals include:
1. Prepare a list of the top ten areas for annexation and
recommendations for each.
2. Sell at least 2 acres of Waterfront Passage Business Office
Park property.
3. Facilitate the completion of one or more of the following major
developments/redevelopments: Wensmann, Gateway,
Priordale, or Drive-In Theater.
Based upon input I have received there appears to be a high
likelihood that all three objectives will be concurrently underway
this year. In fact, I expect two business park parcels to be sold.
(One will be on the agenda March 4 for Developer Agreement
approval and creation of a Tax Increment District). I also expect
that, at minimum, work will proceed on the Drive-In Theater parcel
and on the Wensmann parcel.
There is additional evidence to suggest record activity in 1996.
I nterest rates are very desirable now and appear likely to remain
so into the construction season. Residential building permits for
the month of December were three times greater than normal at
30 rather than 10. The completion of the Ferry Bridge eliminates

the actual and psychological distance separating Prior Lake from
the metropolitan area. Finally, there has been enhanced interest
in commercial industrial development projects in Prior Lake,
demonstrated by the likes of Wensmann Company, EFH,
Reliance, Wahl, and Frauenshuh. Each of these companies has
the reputation and wherewithal to accomplish significant
development proposals.
The challenge to Prior Lake is to be ready and have the resources
at hand to facilitate all three of these development objectives -
potentially at the same time.
Our present resources for addressing Economic Development
are:
1. Assistant City Manager - With four bargaining units and two
brand new labor agreements under negotiation, Blair is
spending substantially more time preparing and reviewing
language proposals, conducting research and sitting in on
labor negotiation sessions. In order to effectively conclude
negotiations to meet another of the Council's 1996 Goals and
Objectives, Blair will have to continue to devote as much as
half or more of his time to this effort, even though I want him to
continue to be a key player in economic development.
2. The Business Development Committee - The committee was
created to facilitate the orderly and expeditious development of
the Waterfront Passage Business Park. This overriding
objective has been achieved. Assuming success with Award
Printing, only two parcels would remain for development. The
Business Development Committee has suggested that its
1995 Goals be extended into 1996 since they were not
adopted by the committee until mid-1995. From an
examination of the 1995 goals it appears to me that the key
issues are being, or will be, addressed through staff,
consultant or Chamber.
3. Chamber of Commerce - The Chamber of Commerce has had
some success in adding membership. They have also been
successful in referring businesses to proper city
representatives, coordination of Lakefront Days and staffing
the booth at the Dakota Pow Wow.
4. Advance Resources for Development - The contract with
Roger Guenette has been in force since 1993 with the
identical elements. Mr. Guenette is paid $1,500 per month as
AGNBDC.DOC

a retainer and $7,500 for each tax increment financing plan
which signifies that a sale has been made. This agreement
has been sufficient to cover costs incurred by Mr. Guenette for
the time he has invested in representing the city in the
development of the Waterfront Passage Business Park.
5. Economic Development Authority The Economic
Development Authority was established by the City Council but
has not been used extensively. Given the economic
development workload for 1996 set forth above, I believe that
the City should upgrade this resource.
The changes recommended include the following: (1) The
Bylaws to the Economic Development Authority should be
revised from seven to five members to streamline its ability to
meet and conduct business. The EDA should become the
prime mover of all city economic development efforts. The
staff would support the EDA by conducting the day-to-day "leg
work." The Bylaws should be revised to assure that the EDA
possesses the broadest array of economic development tools
authorized to it by statute, even if the city chooses not to use
them initially. The frequency of EDA meetings should increase
to once monthly so that the City Council, acting as the EDA,
can stay immediately abreast of economic development
activities which are ongoing at the staff level, and to provide a
regularized means through which approval action can take
place expeditiously. This should address a major time
concern of developers.
The existing Business Development Committee has
accomplished in commendable fashion its key contribution to
the city's development effort. Accordingly, it should be
discontinued so the City staff can serve the day to day needs
of the Economic Development Authority. Existing members of
the BDC should be utilized in other roles if presently available.
As an articulate representative of the downtown businesses,
Paul Vierick should be asked to serve as liaison between
downtown businesses and the EDA. Other BDC members
should be interviewed for upcoming committee or commission
openings if they are interested.
To assure that Advance Resources provides sufficient support
for the City's economic development and redevelopment
objectives this year, the contract should be revised as
attached. The revision assumes that the existing contract
would remain in place and reimburse Mr. Guenette for
AGNBDC.DOC

activities associated with economic development. The new
contract would be used to reimburse Mr. Guenette for
activities associated with redevelopment, particularly on the
Drive-In Theater site and potentially on the Priordale Mall site.
Under the new agreement, Roger Guenette would receive up
to $30,000 if a redevelopment project comes to fruition in
1996, meeting the description as set forth in Appendix A.
From a staff perspective the Business Development Committee
has done well in achieving their primary objective, that is,
development of the Waterfront Passage Business Park. With the
accomplishment of that objective, I am concerned that City staff
members and consultants reserve their efforts for high priority
development and redevelopment tasks, i.e., working with property
owners and developers to expeditiously fashion desirable
development proposals, rather than lower priority time consuming
activities of conducting monthly meetings, which have little real
impact on economic development and redevelopment.
I have reviewed these recommendations and my rationale with the
Business Development Committee at their February 13, 1996
meeting. At the conclusion of the meeting the following motion
was moved and unanimously adopted to the effect that: moved
by Benneke, seconded by Erickson to decommission the
Business Development Committee with the recommendation that
the City Council consider establishing ex officio members to EDA
of one or more former BDC members and that a BDC type
function be recommended for Chamber consideration.
The BDC's prime concern was communication with business
interests, especially if problems arise. I propose that the Council
address the BDC concerns by appointing Paul Viereck as liaison
between downtown businesses and the EDA. When reviewing
the 1996 Chamber goals (to be submitted shortly) the Council
could request that the Chamber undertake the role of advocate on
behalf of existing and prospective businesses.
1. Enhance the City's Economic Development program by
adopting Resolution 96-19 which revises bylaws for the EDA
(attached), discontinues the BDC and approves a revised
contract agreement with Advance Resources for
Development (attached).
2. Refine the recommendations contained in this proposal as
desired by the Council and approve the amended resolution.
4
3. Defer action on this proposal.
RECOMMENDATION: Alternate #1. As indicated above, one purchase agreement is
already underway for the acquisition of the three acre site at the
business park. At the same time, we are talking with five different
parties about a major redevelopment/development project in the
Priordale Mall/Drive-In Theater property. We believe that at least
one of these projects will come to fruition during 1996 and the
second perhaps in 1997 or 1998. Finally, the Wensmann master
planning is proceeding and will no doubt receive a great deal of
impetus when the County reconstructs County Road 42 from
Ferndale to C.S.A.H. 21 in 1997.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The additional fees associated with the proposed Advance
contract will be paid as Tax Increment District expenses.
ACTION REQUIRED: Adopt Resolution 96-19 executing a professional services
agreement with Advance Resources for Development,
decommissioning the Business Development Committee and
approving amended bylaws for the Economic Development
Authority. Adoption of the bylaws requires a 4/5 City Council vote.

ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER BLAIR TREMERE
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE 1996 GOALS
DECEMBER 28, 1995 (FOR 1-2-96 MEETING)
BACKGROUND:
The Business Development Committee annually considers its
goals for the coming year. This year, the Committee reviewed the
goals established earlier this year, and determined that the items
were on-going and should continue for 1996. No new items were
added and no items were deleted.
A copy of the 1995 Goals is attached.
ISSUES:
The Committee observed that the assignments to various tasks
and teams will change, e.g., the seat vacated by Wes Mader and
the functions, performed by Bonnie Carlson. It is expected the
details will be deliberated early in 1996.
The Committee is advisory to the Council; thus, I anticipate that
decisions by the City Council regarding goals for 1996 will and
should influence the Committee's. Further, the Committee has
not specifically discussed the Strategic Plan adopted by the
Council-during my tenure, at least-and, the recently adopted
Comprehensive Plan, while reviewed by the Committee members
as to land use issues, has not been reviewed regarding other
matters such as the Goals and Objectives.
I plan to take both planning items to the Committee for review and
familiarization; it seems to me that some modification of the
overall Committee goals for 1996 could result.
RECOMMENDA TlONS: The Committee has recommended that their 1995 Goals
evolve, with appropriate editorial corrections and revisions. as their
1996 Goals.
ACTION REQUIRED: Consider the Committee's Goals as part of the Council's goal-
setting; and, provide direction, if any, to revise.
