objectives so that it reads "Engage as a partner in other redevelopment and revitalization
opportunities as they arise, actively encouraging redevelopment within the TH25 /CSAH
EDA Minutes: 01/13/16
75 area." She also proposed adding two related action strategies. She added item d which
states, "Implement a facade improvement program for desired revitalization areas," and
item f which states, "Reexamine the Embracing Downtown Plan for possible amendment
based on recent revitalization activity in the downtown."
Tom Perrault indicated that he has a problem, in particular, with the objective which
states, "Support opportunities for park and trail development with TH 25 /CSAH
intersection and as consistent with the Embracing Downtown Plan." He doesn't want to
overly encourage foot traffic downtown. Perrault also noted concern about funding
additional studies.

Broadway

Assessment (ESA) and Limited Site Investigation related to the property located at 130
East Broadway ( "the Zoo ") and noted that historical evidence had identified a coal
gasification use on the site. She asked that the EDA consider approving a contract with
WSB & Associates for a Limited Phase II ESA to identify the extent to which
contamination may exist.
Lloyd Hilgart questioned the value of taking action without full site control in the area.
Bill Tapper suggested that it would be more economical to look at the old bait shop and
the parking lot adjacent to "the Zoo" at the same time.
There was some discussion related to possible next steps related to mitigation based on
possible findings. Schumann suggested that it may be useful to ask that WSB clarify the
level and type of contamination which would require an immediate remediation response.

6b. Consideration to review EDA Bylaws & Enabling Resolution (AS)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The EDA is asked to review the Bylaws and Enabling Resolution of the Economic
Development Authority and to recommend for any amendments.
The EDA's bylaws outline the role of the EDA officers, executive director, and the general
meeting rules and procedures.
The EDA amended its bylaws in 2015, amending to delete unnecessary references to the
EDA Ordinance. This was due to the fact that the EDA Ordinance was amended to refer to
the EDA's Enabling Resolution.
The EDA Enabling Resolution authorizes the establishment of the EDA and enumerates
the powers and duties of the EDA. The Enabling Resolution also identifies the EDA's
control and authority for the Housing and Redevelopment Authority for the City. It has
not been found necessary to amend the EDA Enabling Resolution since 2013.
Kennedy & Graven is completing a review of both the bylaws and enabling resolution. At
this time, the comments resulting from that review are not yet available. Should the
attorney recommend changes, those items will be brought forward at the meeting for
discussion.
No public hearing is required to amend the bylaws. Should the EDA recommend
amendments to the Enabling Resolution, a public hearing is required, and subsequent
review and adoption by the City Council is also required.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
If amendment is requested: Motion to direct staff to prepare amendments to the
bylaws and /or Enabling Resolution of Economic Development Authority as may be
directed by the EDA.
C. STAFF RECOMAWNDATION:
Staff believes that the bylaws of the EDA continue to reflect EDA practice and are
consistent with the EDA's adopted Enabling Resolution, subject to any amendments
recommended by the EDA attorney.
Additionally, staff have reviewed the Enabling Resolution and subject to the comments of
the EDA's attorney, recommends no amendments at this time.

7. Consideration of Market Matching report
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
A verbal report will be provided by WSB Market Matching consultant John Uphoff.
EDA Agenda - 02/10/16
8. Consideration of 2016 Monticello Times manufacturing publication participation. (AS)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The Monticello Times is seeking to develop a new publication intended to focus on Monticello's
manufacturing sector.
Staff's understanding is that the Times intends the publication to provide general community
information pertinent to attracting and retaining manufacturing, and to highlight numerous
industries within the community. The Times is looking to the EDA and IEDC to help provide
content for the document to support relevance to the industrial community, and to create a piece
which serves to encourage the development of additional industrial projects within the
community. Staff's understanding is that the publication could be used as a marketing tool for
industrial development for the city.
The publication is intended to be produced in time for distribution during Minnesota
Manufacturing Week in October.
A representative from the Monticello Times will be present at the meeting to provide additional
information on the publication and cost.
Al. Budget Impact: Unknown at this time. The EDA's 2016 marketing budget is $5,000.
A2. Staff Impact: If the EDA elects to move forward, staff will work with the Monticello
Times to develop content and focus as requested.
B. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
None at this time.
C. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Motion to approve continued work with the Monticello Times on development of a 2016
Monticello Times manufacturing publication and to authorize an expenditure of $
toward the publication.
2. Motion to table action for further research and discussion.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:
None
EDA Agenda: 02/10/16
9. Economic Development Report (JO /AS)
Economic Development Manager Position
After a first round of application and interviews, the City has elected to re -post the Economic
Development Manager position. The position posting will remain open until February 14th.
Staff appreciates the time on the part of the EDA members who contributed to the recent
hiring discussion.
349 West Broadway Update
WSB & Associates will be preparing the Asbestos and Limited Regulated Materials Survey
for this site over the next two -three weeks, with on -site investigation occurring the week of
February 8th.
Staff have obtained three quotes for a certificate of survey for the site, as requested by the
EDA. In comparing the quotes, it has come to staff's attention that pricing varies based on the
availability of current title information. As such, staff will be gathering additional
background information on costs associated with preparing a new title commitment and then
request revisions to quotes accordingly.
LSI —100 East Broadway
As previously noted to the EDA, the Limited Site Investigation document has been finalized
for the 100 East Broadway site. The LSI was submitted to the MN Department of Commerce
Petrofund for reimbursement of up to 80% of the cost. Approximately $6,400 of the cost of
the study are eligible for reimbursement. Petrofund has requested additional clarifications
from WSB on the study, which are being prepared. The EDA will be notified when the
reimbursement is authorized and received.
Environmental —130 East Broadway
Staff has spoken with Ryan Spencer of WSB & Associates regarding the questions raised by
the EDA on the proposed Phase II Environmental Site Assessment for the 130 East Broadway
site. Mr. Spencer indicated that should contamination be found which constitutes immediate
threat to the health or safety of the community or surroundings, the EDA would be required to
act. Mr. Spencer indicated that testing is the means by which the EDA would understand
whether contamination is present, and to what level. Mr. Spencer also noted that regardless of
random site testing as proposed with the Phase II, contamination can be localized and not
found with such testing. It may be discovered later with demolition and redevelopment. AT
this time, staff would propose to continue discussion
IEDC
A discussion with the IEDC was held on February 5th regarding their purpose and goals. The
feedback from the IEDC was very positive in their desire to serve as a platform for an
EDA Agenda: 02/10/16
exchange of information and ideas related to the furthering of manufacturing and industry
goals for the community. The IEDC's annual work plan will be developed with the group
accordingly and shared with the EDA at a future meeting.
Market Matching Services
Staff has scheduled a meeting with WSB on February 12th, 2016 as related to continued
Market Matching services for 2016. In July, the EDA authorized utilization of Market
Matching services on a month -to -month basis at the monthly rate of $4,000. The contract is
valid through June, 2016. However, the EDA should note that budgeted funds are only
available in the amount of $12,000 for Market Matching services in 2016. This amount
anticipated the hire of an economic development staff person and the re- evaluation of Market
Matching services.
Wilson Development Services
The EDA has previously worked with Wilson Development Services for consulting services
for acquisition and relocation support services on projects including those associated with the
implementation of Embracing Downtown.
At this time, the EDA's previously approved work with Wilson Development Services has
reached its approved amount in terms of cost. It is important to note that services by Wilson
Development are billed on actual time and service provided.
The EDA will need to consider an additional contract or hourly rates with Mr. Wilson should
it wish to continue services with Wilson Development Services on initiatives related to
Embracing Downtown goals. Staff have therefore requested a general proposal which
outlines potential work to be completed as related specifically to Block 34.
Keller Williams
Staff has spoken with Keller Williams Commercial real estate representatives. They are
looking to present more concrete information on services to the EDA for its redevelopment
and land sale goals. Staff has requested that they prepare specifics for a workshop
presentation on March 9th, 2016 at 5:00 PM, pending EDA action to call for workshop.
FNM
The City has interviewed two firms for management and operations of FiberNet Monticello.
More information on this item will be presented by the City Administrator during the meeting.
