3. Reports: a) Downtown Reh bilitation
Koropchak report d that on Thursday evening, October 8,
1987, a small gr up of property owners, tenants, city
officials and st ff, and planning commission and HRA
members had met 0 determine three objectives: 1)
Review estimated cost of the project 2) Determine
Support or no su port of the project 3) Decide
between prelimin ry Concept A or Concept B. It was
voted to proceed to Step II, for a committee to define
the design from basic Concept A, obtain a preliminary
opinion from the City Council (percentage of ad valorem
versus assessment, etc.), and thereafter, present new
information. A c mmittee of Sally Martie, Al Loch,
Steve Johnson, an Marn Flicker volunteered to work
with Geoff Martin of Dahlgren, Shardlow & Uban, and
city staff and/or officials to determine final design.
Final support for the project was not determined at this
meeting. Dale Lu gwitz expressed the bank's experience
with benches and ountains, it just doesn't work because
of abuse to or im roper use of such said property.
His suggestion wa to demolish 6-7 building on
Broadway. Koropc ak updated the IDC on the old
Monticello Ford P operty, stating the HRA had executed
a contract for de d and plans are to demolish the
building as soon s possible to enhance new development.
Without a committ development the HRA has no more funds
to acquire/demoli h other abutting properties. Because
of a potential de eloper's interest in the construction of a
low income elderl housing development for the said
property, Koropch k presented to the Planning Commission
in concept only t e need to change the zoning from B-4
to PZ-M to accomm date such a project. It was the
recommendation of the Planning Commission for the HRA
to proceed as pIa ned and allow time for advertising
the sale of the property for commerical/retail use.
The IDC inquired if a conditional use would permit

.
b) Extended Metr Lines
Ron Hoglund repor ed on the luncheon at the Senior
Citizen's Center here he and Koropchak spoke to
the members on wh the IDC supports extended metro
lines and what st ge the process is at. Ron said
the main concern or the seniors is cost and it
frightens them. er-all it was good. Koropchak told
the seniors that igning the petition was to indicate
to the Public Uti ities Commission that Monticello was
interested; there y, Monticello would become number 17
on the list. Thi does not commit Monticello to re-
ceiving extended etro lines. Koropchak has called
Joy and Elaine fo the petition to be turned in on
Monday for verifi ation of signatures and for sufficient
number of signatu es. 295 numbers issued as of the
October billing w re 3,247 which means a need of
487.05 signatures or 600. Copies of the petitions are
to be mailed to t e Public Utilities Commission,
the local te1epho e company, and NW Bell Telephone Co.
An additional six cities were added to the original
consolidated process list in August, these were Le Seur,
Cannon Falls, Dela. 0, Northfield, Watertown, and Buffalo.
Koropchak advised he IDC of George Johnson's, Chamber
Board member, sugg stion to have an attorney review the
signatures on the etitions before submitting. It was
a consensus of the committee that an attorney was not
necessary at this ime.

.
3. Reports (continued)
hypothetical exa pIes of new industrial businesses.
One a 30,000 sq ft computor production company and
the other a 100,000 sq ft egg processing company.
I asked the cities to calculate the building permit
fees, plumbing permit fees, hook-up charges for water
and sewer plus meter, and what items may be considered
negotiable. Also, to calculate the water and sewer
billing for a three month period. At the time of the
meeting no responses had been received.
f) Potential Ind strial Projects with City Interstructure
Koropchak advised the IDC that the City was considering
subdividing Lots 9 and 10, Block 2, Oakwood Industrial
Park. This to ma ket the city lots and meet the request
for smaller industrial lots. The Planning Commission
gave preliminary concept approval to the subdivision.
.
Koropchak informed the IDC that Mr. Wolfsteller and she
had received letters of request from Mr. Jim Boyle and
Mrs. Gladys Hoglu d for their properties, 190 acres south
1-94 and east of akwood Industrial Park and 72 acres
along the railroa tracks and east of Bondhus Company,
respectively, to e included the Central Monticello
Redevelopment PIa boundaries which would allow the
use of tax incre nt finance. Koropchak has checked
with Mr. Bob Die , Holmes & Graven, who stated that the 1987
legislature amend d the Minnesota Statutory which now
prohibits the ext nsion of those boundaries. An alternate
suggestion was fo the City to onnsiderthe establishment
of a Monticello D velopment District. At this time,
Koropchak has not researched the process of a development
district and how it works.

Other Business.
Treasurer Bud Schrupp rep rted the combined total of money markets

of comparative costs for new ind~strial companies. comparative costs
are being requested from the cit" s of Buffalo, Big Lake, Elk River,
Litchfield, and st. cloud. The urpose of the study is to verify

complete.

industries, please calculate the total initial building and plumbing
permit fees, water and sewer hoo up fees including the meter cost,

Dear Mr. Seelig:
In a letter dated Jul 6, 1987, you asked, "Can a well or
wells be driven on th site to provide some of the water
that will be used for beverage production?" In my
response dated July 1 , 1987, I stated, "Currently, the
City Ordinance reads 'private water not permitted in the
system.' The City Co ncil's action on June 8 indicated
the City's willingnes to supply the adequate volume of
water for your compan. ; however, if for'some reason the
City could not supply the requested volume, the City
would grant a varianc to allow private water or partial
private water for exc ptionally high water demand users
(Commerical/Industria). The present ordinance does
permit private water or irrigation purposes only."
