MONTICELLO HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY SPECIAL MEETING
Tuesday, April 4, 1989 - 7:00 AM
City Hall
MEMBERS PRESENT: Chairperson Al Larson, Lowell Schrupp, and

1. CALL TO ORDER.
The HRA Special meeting was called to order at 7:05 AM
by Chairperson Al Larson.
2. CONSIDERATION TO EXECUTE THE CONTRACT BETWEEN BDS, INC. AND
THE MONTICELLO HRA.
Koropchak presented the copy of the contract draft as prepared
by BDS, Inc. for and between the HRA and BDS, Inc. which
outlines the consultant's agreement for TIF proposals, loan
packaging proposals, TIF finance plans and TIF development
plans. Koropchak indicated that city staff had not reviewed
the contract yet. The HRA declined to execute the agreement
until city staff had a chance to review the contract and
make comment if necessary.

3. CONSIDERATION OF THE PARTY WALL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN O'CONNOR,
STELTON, AND TOPELS.
Koropchak updated the HRA members on the progress to
acquire the O'Connor and Stelton's property. Fred and
Dorthy Topel do not object to relinquishing the party
wall agreement however feel it is not their problem.
They will sign the release if 1) an easement is granted
for future maintenance and 2) the cost to repair the
exposed wall is determined and negotiated. According
to Gary DeBroer, representation for Ervin and Donna
Stelton, the Stelton's will not sign the party wall
release with O'Connor. O'Connor's property was not
demolished because of no party wall release. Joe
O'Connor has contracted with Viet & company for
demolition of the Monti Truck Repair for a bid of $3,500.
After some discussion the HRA requested Koropchak contact
Vaughn Viet for the potential to contract with the
City for demolition of the O'Connor property at the above
cost ($3,500), thereafter contact Joe O'Connor to negotiate
the remaining purchase price less the Viet demolition cost.
This voids the need of the party wall release from Stelton's
at this time and allows the City to have Viet demolish
both structures at the same time.

Rick Wolfsteller reiterated the city attorney's oplnlon
that the party wall agreement is a flaw in the Stelton's
title. Mr. DeBroer indicated he can obtain title insurance
on the property. The HRA requested Koropchak obtain
two bids to repair the exposed portion of the westerly
wall of the Topel's property and thereafter negotiate
payment between the Steltons and Topels, the HRA being
involved only if necessary. The Topels are represented
by Ken Holker.
4. ADJOURNMENT.
The HRA special meeting adjourned by consensus of its members.
