Ollie Koropchak advised that Ste\e Johnson was not prepared at this time to come back
to the I-IRA with an update rcgarding the redevelopment project. advising that he had
noted at the previous meeting there was a chance he would not be ready at this time.
.
.
.
HRA Minutes - 09/04/02
Koropchak provided information regarding the value, which the assessor had valued
lower. which the HRA had expected. She provided TIF projections from Mark Ruff
showing $565.000 NPV. \vhich was less than halfofwhat thc applicant was projecting.
The HRA discussed a possible assessment agreement but Koropchak advised that a
portion may be pay as you go.
They discussed an option of the HRA providing all the increment that the project accrues
for the life of the district. Koropchak advised that excess increment from the district is
what was used for Barry Fluth's project ($75,000) for parking, and $185,000 for land
acq uisi ti 0 n/ dcm 0 Ii ti on.
Koropchak asked if the HRA had interest in downtown parking improvements for the
public which in turn would be of value to businesses there. She also discussed
underground parking on River Street and wondered if that would encourage other
businesses down in that area to do something more with their existing proper1ies.
Oarrin Lahr was uncomfortable with the parking deficit. Barger asked if they were going
by what other cities dcmandcd for parking and if the City's requirements are that much
different from other cities.
It was also stated that redevelopment in this area was to follow the recommendation of
the North Anchor. They discussed that there is actually a lot of parking in the district
and possibly anothcr study should be done to determine actually how much there is and
how much is nceded. It was also recommended that proper signage be placed downtown
which would help direct people whcrc to parle encouraging pcople to walk. Koropchak
stated she would tigure out per parking space what the HRA paid on the Amoco site.
They discussed also that parking comes up as an issue on almost every
development/redevelopmcnt and possibly thc Council should look into this with a task
force. Brian Stumpf statcd that the Council is looking at a task force to work on the camp
plan and possibly this could be in conjunction with that.
The HRA discusscd possibly offering thcm the tax increment that the project would
generate, along with up to $150,000 for parking if needed. Koropchak also cautioncd that
applicants come to the HRA to get TIF assistance first and then when the proposed
project gets to the Planning Commission after site review, it has changed from what was
initially proposed to the I-IRA. ending up with a project that is not the same as what was
approved by the !-IRA. Koropchak felt that the liRA should see the final building plans.
fair felt it should be an HRA policy that this comes back to the !-IRA after site plan
review. There was no further discussion.
6.
Consideration to approve chanl!es to the Contract fix Private Redevelopment between the
HRA. the City, and the Central Minnesota Housing Partnership.
KoropchaK advised that the acquisition costs to acquire the properties and the ovcrall
costs of the project had increased. Shc also provided thc cash flows based on the values.
stating Ruff included an intlation of2%, using 7% intcrcst. and by the lite ofthc district

HRA Minutes - 09/04/02
thc lIRA could collect $171,000. Koropchak stated she was uncomfortable with the
projcct as she would have liked to have scen the finished project. stating CMIIP had
switched developers.
Rick Wolfstellcr stated that he had offered up to $33.000 for the project to help with the
inercased cost of the project and this would come from either reducing the price of the
land or asking the HRA to use tax increment.
A MO"rION WAS MADE BY DARRIN LAHR TO APPROVE CHANGES TO THE
CONTRACT FOR PRIV ATE REDEVELOPMENT BETWEEN THE HRA. THE CITY,
AND CMlIP BY INCREASING THE ACQUISIT10N ASSISTANCE FROM $125.000
TO $158.000 NPV. BILL FAIR SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED

Considcration of Executive Director's Report.
Koropchak provided the executive director's report adding that Twin Cities Die Casting
will be on next month's agenda regarding the Fair Housing Act and the need for
discussion regarding discrimination. Koropehak also advised that they had not met their
creation of 85 new jobs requirement. She stated she will be asking the City Council to
extend the grant agreemcnt for 2 years from the date of the occupancy permit.
Koropchak also advised that because this was Federal grant money, TCDC needed to
provide 51 % low to moderate income jobs.
Koropchak also advised that the UMC ground breaking will not be on 9/13/01 due to
bank financing not being complete.

HRA Agenda - 10/02/02
4A. Consideration to authorize execution of a Quick Claim Dced from the HRA to the
City of Monticello for the property described as Lots 1-5. Block 64. City of
Monticcllo.
A. Refcrcnce and background:
This is a housekeeping item. The Quick Claim Deed will transfer title hom the HRA to
the City. The property is the Carlson property which was platted as park land via the
Hans Ilagen Plat. When the deed is recorded, a journal entry will transfer $35,000 from
the City non-restrictive funds and $43,000 from the HRA non-restrictive funds into TIF
District No. 1-22 Front Street account. The $78,000 is the appraisal amount of the raw
land. No public hearing is necessary as defined in the TIF Contract per the HRA
attorney.
B. Alternative Action:
1. Motion to authorize execution of a Quick Claim Deed for the property described
as Lots 1-5, Block 64, City of Monticello.
2. Motion to deny authorization to execute a Quick Claim Deed for the property
described as Lots 1-5, Block 64, City of Monticello.

HRA Agenda - 10/02/02

Continued - Consideration to hear update on the progress for redevelopment of a
portion of Block 52.
A. Reference and background:
At the September HRA meeting, the commissioners reviewed the market values projected
by the County Assessor for the proposed Johnson/Heaton redevelopment project. The
estimated market values (EMV) by the County were substantially lower than those
estimated in the McComb study.
Estimated Market Value.

$2,317,527
$1,484,409
$3,801,936
$3,500,000
$2,400,000
$5,900,000
Based on the EMV above, below is a comparison of the projected tax increment. The
disparity in TI is do in large to three things: Difference in market values, use of current
tax rate rather than frozen tax rate, and no rcduction fiJr State Property Tax. The
cashflows ran by Ehlers assumes Phase I is fully taxable and payable in 2005 and Phase II
in 2006. This is net present value (NPV) using 7%. I'm not sure about the McComb
taxable years or if numbers are NPV or not.
Tax increment over life of district for Phase 1 and I I.
Ehlers

TI
$565,000 NPV

Additionally, the commissioners reviewed parking calculation for the proposed Phase I
and II project. The Planner Technician John Glomiski reported according to the parking
ordinance, the project required 275 parking stalls. The McComb indicated 75 parking
stalls proposed on-site. The commissioncrs requested parking calculations based on thc
existing businesses and proposcd project for Block 52 using the 60% rule with joint
parking. Attachmcnt A are those calculations by Glomiski.
Mr. Johnson was contacted relative to the upcoming HRA mccting. They will attend and
indicated additional materials would not to ready for agenda package. If thc developers
and HRA commissioners want to see this project materialize, timing is important.
HRA Agenda - 10/02/02
.
Couple of things for the lIRA commissioners to ask and request: Executed Preliminary
Development Agrcement with $5,000 deposit. Have Johnson and Heaton agreed to terms
of their partnership or developed a partnership? Thc attached TI cashtlow numbers ran
by Ehlers, means the drop-dead date for commencement of construction for Phase I (new
building) is March 1,2003. And as indicated in their initial proposal. Phase II would
begin a year later or March I, 2004. Given those drop-dead dates, Ehlers ran '1'1
cashflows to show the 5-ycar rule: the amount of pay-as-you-go dollars available using
the 25% district pooling less admin % beginning payable 2005. You will note this
cashtlow utilizes the Marquette I3ank revenues and the hypothetical Block 52 projects.
What does this mean? As the district NPV pooling cashl10w numbers are similar to the
Block 52 project cashflows, it may be best (less risky) to offer pay-as-you-go to the
developer and the BRA use the up-front dollars for public improvements? A Mark
question I'll follow-up with. Bond dollars must be spend by August 1,2004 (three years
from date of bond sale).
How committed are the developers and what have the developers completed since the
August HRA meeting?
Does the HRA want to proceed and authorize development of concept plans ilW cligiblc
public improvements such as parking lot improvements, etc.? I'll try Pat Sawatzke, if
he's serious about a redevelopment projcct.
.
For your information, 1 did check with the County Assessor as to the purchase pricc of
the Springborg property. Although the attached form to the eRE has not been
researched, the Assessor informcd me that thc $320,000 purchase price included real
estate, equipment, and inventory.

Ordinance Parking Requirements:
Proposed project:
Office: 3 + 1(200) 34,500 sq. ft. = 176 parking spaces
Retail: 1 (200) 19,800 sq. ft. := 99 parking spaces
Total = 275 parking spaces
Existing Uses:
Douglas Carpet:
Retail: 1 (200) 8,376 sq. ft. = 42 parking spaces
Pawn Shop:
Retail: 1 (200) 2,450 sq. ft. = 12 parking spaces
Antique Shop:
Retail: 1 (200) 5,600 sq. ft. = 28 parking spaces
Hair Salon:
. Retail: 1 (200) 2,640 sq. ft. := 13 parking spaces
Kjellberg
Retail: 1 (200) 3,250 sq. ft. = 16 parking spaces
Kjellberg
Office: 3 + 1 (200) 836 sq. ft. = 7 parking spaces
Springborg
Retail: 1 (200) 3,388 sq. ft. = 17 parking spaces
T otai = 135 parking spaces
. T otai parking spaces needed for new and existing uses (with springborg) =
410 parking spaces 60% rule with joint parking agreement = 246
. T otai parking spaces needed for new and existing uses (without springborg) :=
393 parking spaces 60% rule with joint parking agreement = 236
.
.
.
.
1\"\\ -.\.\....~ t
A-
The 60% rule was meant to count only on site (i.e. the site that you own) parking stalls
that would be considered shared and open to the public. The other 40% comes from
areas surrounding the site, such as public parking lots or public right of way. In this
situation, unless we vacate the portion of walnut street, the walnut street parking is
counted in the 40%, not as on site parking.
According to my calculation, there are 164 on-site parking spaces provided (with
springborg gone)...... 72 parking stalls short.
My opinion The parking requirements should be changed in our downtown CCD
district. This block will never create the need to park 250 cars at the same time. !fit
does, then our downtown is booming and we should all be happy. Sometimes a parking
shortage is a good thing!!!

Publicl-learing - on thc status of the Twin Citv Die Castin2:s Company proiect and
considcration to adopt a resolution extending the "Comoliance Date" of thc Small
Cities Economic Development Grant. (O.K.)
A. Reference and background:
First, the City Council is asked to hold a puhlic hearing to discuss the status of the Twin
City Die Castings Company (TCDC) project. This puhlic hearing is a requirement of the
Snudl Cities Economic Development Grant (SCEDG) criteria because the City was
awarded or received dollars from HUD/Federal governmcnt. The public hearing notice
appeared in the local newspaper on Septemher 12 and 19, 2002.
PUBLIC IIEARING - TO DISCUSS THE ST AIUS OF THE TCDC PROJECT
On June 8,2000, the City of Monticello and TCDC entercd into a l,oan Agrccment. The
tnachinery and equipmcnt loan was in the amount of $500,000 at an interest rate of 4%
amortized over 10 years with a balloon payment in year seven. After disbursement of the
$100,000 EDA-GMEF Loan, the first disbursement payment of the SCEDG to thc City
for a loan to TCDC was made on June 21,2000; thcrefore, the "Compliance Date" or
"Grant Close Out Date" became June 30, 2002. The SCEDG and EDA-GMEf loan
payback payments hegan July 1, 2000. Both loan payback paymcnts are current.
.
TCDC agreed to construct a 36,000+ square foot manufacturing facility in Phase I and to
create X5 new jobs. For the purpose of the SCEDG, 51 % of the jobs must bc tilled by
persons who reside in households oflow to moderatc income (LMI).
Due to unusual circumstances related to construction of a magnesium plant, the initial
construction completion date within the TI F Contract for Private Development was
amended from June 1, 2000, to April 1, 2001. A temporary-partial Certificate of
Occupancy Permit was issued on March 21, 2001, and the Ccrtificate of Occupancy
Permit issued on July 26, 2001. For taxcs payable 2002, the estimated market value
of the project is $1,572,400 and the nct taxes arc $63,358.
As part of the criteria f()r HUD/Federal dollars, Carol Pressley-Olson, MN Dept of Trade
and Economic Dcvelopment, monitored the City files and ledgers and tourcd thc TCDC
plant on August 26,2002. Pressley-Olson t(mnd the City files and ledgers to be in
excellent order with a few follow-up things to do such as this public hearing and the
upcoming discussion at the HRA meeting relative to the Fair Housing Act. Additionally,
she noted thc promptness of payback payments by the business. See attached summary
letter.
.
A~
City Council Agenda - 9/23102
.
As of the Final Annual Progress Report of June 30, 2002, TCDC reported the creation of
65 full-time .jobs (29 Non-I ,MI and 36 LMI) of the 85 committed jobs. Upon monitoring
of the job and wage goals by Pressley-Olson, it was noted that telnporary full-time
clnployment is not acceptable by the I-HJD/Federal criteria. After monitoring of the files
by Pressley-Olson, the acceptable numbcr of jobs created according to I-ILJD/Federal
criteria was 40 (23 Non-LMI and 17 LMI). Upon touring the facility, Pressley-Olson
reported sceing a well-managed company, a clean operation, and an impressive building
and machincry/equipment. Pressley-Olson remains eagcr to work with the business and
dctermined to see the business meet the 51 % LMI job creation. Mr. Doug Hannon. Vice
Presidcnt of Twin City Die Castings, conducted the plant tour and informed Pressley-
Olson and Koropchak of the tollowing: The company has felt an impact from the
econOlnic recession which in-turn affected the number of jobs created; however, the
Monticello plant is profitable. Additionally, Mr. I larl110n noted to remain compctiti ve in
a global market, the company's philosophy is to make greater invcstments in high tech
machinery and to add less personnel but to employ a higher paid/skilled personnel. This
concludes the status report of the TCDC project.
After closing the public hearing, please consider adopting the resolution.
ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION
.

housing choices to them, regardless of their race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap, or familiar
status.
Following discussions, Monticello identified and will undertake the following Fair Housing activity:
. Monticello, via its Housing and Redevelopment Authority and City Council, will continue to conduct
public meetings to discuss local Fair Housing issues in the community and develop strategies to
meet any deficiencies.

sim1lar income levels to have available to them the same housing
choices.
The Minnesota Depanment of Housing Finance is the lead ag~ucy

by other State agc:ncies receiving MUD funds. The original All was
completed for the fiscal years 1996-2000. Updates to the All are
conduc~u yearly and submined to HUD for their review and

Fair Housing Plan of Action
Instructions:
Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, and subsequent amendments, prohibits discrimination in the
rental or sale of housing on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap and
familial status.
This law also requires efforts to affirmatively further fair housing. Regardless of the nature of the
program, grantees are required to develop a Fair Housing Plan of Action and undertake fair housing
activities at least once per year during the time the grant is open. The fair housing activities must be
over and above those that are already in place. The Fair Housing Plan of Action must be submitted to
DTED before SCDP funds will be released.
The Plan proposed should relate directly to any impediments to fair housing choices that have been
identified, and should include specific actions that can be reported in the DTED progress report.
Described below are examples of fair housing activities that may be undertaken.
/\l.. · Conducting public meetings (city council, county commission, housing and
? redevelopment authorities, regional development corrunissions, realtors, landlords and
citizen groups) to discuss fair housing issues in your community.
. Developing written fair housing materials and information and distributing them
throughout the community. Distribution may consist of publication of fair housing
notices in local newspapers, placing fair housing posters/information in public places
(post offices, public library, city hall, county courthouse, schools, etc.) and making
information available to local banks, realtors and landlords.
. Working with local media to develop and air public service announcements.
. Starting a fair housing poster contest with area schools, or with children's groups (i.e.,
Boy Scouts, 4-H, Girl Scouts, etc.).
. Conducting a faiI:: housing "awareness" events at community centers, schools,
community organizations, etc.
. Conducting a review of current land use policies procedures and zoning ordinances to
determine whether they discriminate against anyone on the basis of race, color, religion,
sex, nationality, handicap or familial status.
. Incorporating the fair housing logo on the community's letterhead, rehabilitation
application forms and other documents.
. Adopting a fair housing ordinance.
. Including fair housing information with outreach materials for housing rehabilitation
programs.
. Publicly advertising the city as a "fair housing city."
~
. Establishing a task force that will assess local housing patterns, zoning and land use
regulations, housing types and locations, and develop fair housing strategies and goals.

MONTICELLO CITY ORDINANCE
TITLE IV/Chpt 1/Page 2
Goals and Policies
.
This section is structured to state an overall goal
for each category of planning issues, then provide
policy direction which helps apply the goal. The
goals and policies are compiled from the various
discussions between staff, Planning Commission,
City Council, joint meetings between various
groups in the City (including both municipal and
non-municipal groups), as well as a series of
meetings with community residents and business
people.
The application of the following policies will
often mean a change in the way the community
reviews its new development proposals, or in the
activities which the City undertakes itself. The
explanation under each policy statement is not
intended to cover all of the possible applications
of the statement, but rather, is provided to
illustrate how the policy would apply in a
.articular circumstance. The City will fmd other
applications in its routine activities, and must
make policy review a part of those activities in
order to keep the policies fresh, as well as to be
confident that the City's activities are in line with
a consistent policy direction. When the City
finds that its activities do not coincide with the
policy statement, this is a signal that either the
policy is no longer valid and should be changed,
or that the activity should be reevJlluated.
Regular policy review is an important part of the
City's routine decision making process.
Housing
Goal:
Housing in Monticello has traditionally provided
shelter for members of the local community in the
.
Monticello Comprehensive Plan
Goals and Policies
~
fullest sense. In its role as a sub-regional service
center, local residents were primarily employed
locally, and these resident/employees provided
commercial services to a relatively well defmed
market area. Since 1980, the City has seen
dramatic housing growth, much of which has
been for commuter residents seeking less
expensive land, small town environment, but
convenient access to the Twin Cities employment
centers. This demand has resulted in a significant
level of moderately priced housing which has the
potential to strain the City's services at relatively
low tax rates.
~
Moreover, commuter residents are more likely to
have commerce attachments to non-local
businesses. When the business community does
not expand commensurate with the residential
community, the City does not capture the full
range of tax revenue envisioned by the State's
property tax structure. As a result, Monticello's
goals for future housing provision will be to work
toward housing projects which are designed to
better integrate the new residents into the full
community. This does not mean that commuter
residents will be discouraged, but that the
neighborhoods in which all residents live are
designed to preserve the benefits of the small
town environment which has contributed to the
attraction of Monticello's growth.
Policy: Housing is a support system for
the primary City functions.
The application of this Policy means that City
decision making will review housing proposals,
and land use planning relating to residential use,
IJ
.
Goals and policies Page 2
. as to how they relate to the City's primary goals
and objectives. When housing is viewed as a
support system, as opposed to an essential
function of active City involvement, housing
projects much show that they help implement, or
at least fit into, the City's planning and
development environment.
In Monticello, a few of the primary goals are
efficient and effective public service delivery, and
active promotion of business and economic
development. To meet this Policy in light of
these goals, a prospective housing project should
be able to show that it furthers these goals. These
may relate to project quality or subdivision design
which affects public services, or a consideration
of the future residents of the project as both (1)
customers of the Monticello business community,
and (2) labor supply for local business.
. Policy:
Tbe City should monitor housing
development in an effort to
provide a full range of housing
choices.
~
An unbalanced housing supply leaves gaps in the
community's social structure, whether it is in
affordable units housing the City's industrial
labor supply, moderate family housing, or higher
end housing providing move-up opportunities for
maturing families and residents. The City has
historically supplied the lower two-thirds of the
housing market, leaving the upper-end market to
other locations, commonly rural large lot
"development" . This gap results in the loss of
community members just as they begin to
accumulate wealth and leisure time, a significant
impact on the demographic make up of the City.
..
Monticello Comprehensive Plan
Goals and Policies
~,
At the same time, artificial limits on other
housing opportunities can have impacts which are
felt by other community goals. One of the
primary components of a strong economic
development program is the ready supply of well
educated workers, and appropriate housing for the
expansion of that labor resource. This does not
mean, bowever, that housing may be made
affordable by lessening the quality of its design or
construction. Therefore, it is the policy of the
City of Monticello that housing programs,
projects, and developments will be reviewed with
an eye toward how the market is addressing all
levels of housing. The City will take creative
steps to attract high quality development in all
ranges, and the review of development proposals
will include this criterion.
Policy:
Monticello will actively utilize its
zoning power to accomplish its
goals.
Monticello will apply many tools in order to
accomplish its goal of housing which builds
community, rather than merely building
population. Among these, zoning is one of the
most comprehensive and powerful. Through
zoning, the City can be a partner in the pro~ision
of housing which meets its goals and policies.
Creativity in housing design and construction can
be encouraged through flexible zoning
approaches. The establishment of zoning
standards which are rigorous and detailed will
permit housing developers to know on the front
end what is expected of them.
Flexibility means that the City will encourage
creative approaches to housing development. But
it also means that any modification of its zoning
standards will be more than offset by an
.rovement in the quality of a proposed project.
This policy states that the City is confident of its
zoning standards, and flexibility will be applied
when the end product is measurably better at
achieving the communities housing goals and
policies than the strict application of the zoning
regulations. Flexibility will not be considered as
a mere trade off of quality "A" for quality "B".
Economic Development
Goal:
A source of pride in the community, economic
development has been a successful element of the
community's efforts for several years. This
includes both public and private ventures,
separately and in partnership. The City has been
able to take advantage of its access to the
.iPterstate highway system, the Twin Cities
.etropolitan area, quality labor supply, solid
infrastructure, and affordable land without the
negatives of metro-like congestion and costs. As
the community grows, the successful continuation
of these programs will depend on the City's
ability to avoid these negatives, and continue
capitalizing on the positives.
One of the primary goals of the City of
Monticello is the continued emphasis on
economic development programs. Successful
economic development enhances the City's
industrial diversity and strengthens the City's tax
base. These are critical advantages for the
community as the City looks down the road at an
uncertain future for the NSP nuclear power plant.
.,
,
The achievement of this goal 'will depend upon
the achievement of several smaller steps. As
noted above, a successful economic development
1.

program relies on many factors. The failure of
any of these can cripple the overall program,
particularly in an environment of stiff competition
for industrial development. As the fmancial tools
which cities may use for economic development
purposes are limited by the state, the differences
in the other factors will become even more
important in industrial location decisions. Thus,
successful economic development is much more
than arranging financing, but begins by keeping
Monticello strong in all areas.
Policy:
The purpose of the City's
economic development activities
is to broaden the City's tax base.
This is a policy which requires a long term view
w hen considering assistance to a particular
industrial concern. Under current tax increment
fmancing programs, the City does not realize a
net tax gain from a new business until ten years
after construction. During that ten years, the
City carries the cost of infrastructure and other
City services. Thus, it is critical that businesses
which locate in the community utilizing tax
increment financing will be strong in the years
following the ten year time horizon, in order for
the City to realize a return on its investment. It
is not possible to predict with certainty hoy..' a
business will be doing ten years from now,
however, so it important to reduce the risk by
attracting the highest quality industries.
It is the policy of the City's economic
development programs, therefore, to seek and
assist those businesses which are fmancially
strong, show signs of growth, and contribute to
the diversity of the City's economic base.
Businesses which are under-capitalized, or are
merely hopping from one building to another

Affirmative Action Plans
April 1999
State of Minnesota:
The Minnesota Department of Human Rights (651-297-1690) has advised that cities, counties
and school districts are not required to comply with MN Statute & 363.073 Certificates of
compliance for public contracts. Toward the end of the first paragraph of subdivision I, it states
"A municipality. . . that receives state money for any reason is
encourae:ed to prepare and implement an affirmative action plan
for the employment of minority persons, women, and the qualified
disabled and submit the plan to the commissioner of human
rights."
Federal Government:
The Federal Government Office of Federal Contract Compliance (612-370-3180) has advised
that cities receiving federal funding need to work directly with the Federal Agency from which
funding is to be received to determine if an affirmative action plan is required. Any monitoring
activities to ensure adherence to an affirmative action plan or to audit fund expenditures would
be done through the Federal Agency that provided the funding.

Mr. Barry Fluth
Master's Fifth Avenue
223 Sandberg Rd.
Monticello, Mn 55362
Dear Mr. Fluth,
In reviewing the progress of current projects in the Central Community District (CCD) the Design
Advisory Team is very pleased with your efforts in the redevelopment 'On the comer of Locust and
Broadway. We are looking forward to the finished product.
However, during our review at the September 17, 2002 meeting we realized we have not seen a
finalized landscape and lighting plan for the site, specifically the parking area. We would be happy
to review it at your earliest convenience. Our meetings through the end of 2002 are: October 1,
October 15, November 6, November 19, December 3, and December 17.
Our concern is for the parking area. It is a compact space designed to accommodate as many cars
as possible. Yet in Section 3.5 of the Revitalization Plan's Design Guidelines it states that:
- Parking lots be 25% shaded by trees withing 10 years of development.
-Use landscaping or ornamental fencing to block view of bumpers and grills of cars
parking in lots adjacent to any public street.
I have included page 5 and 6 of the design guidelines for your reference. Please see Section 3.3
as well, but you may have already met those guidelines.
You may call me at 763-878-2507 to arrange to be on the OAT agenda. Or if you prefer, call
Ollie Koropchak at 271-3208. We will need 7 copies for the meeting (they can be 8 l/2 x 11) five
working days before the meeting.. Please call me with any questions. Thank you.
Sincerely,
~~
Pam Campbell

Me. Ollie Koropchak

Monticello, MN 553362
Dear MS .Koropchak:
On behalf of the management team at CompuCredit, I want to thank you for your
warm hospitality. Since first coming to St. Cloud and Monticello, I have been
impressed with the openness and warmth displayed by individuals with whom I
have had the pleasure of meeting.
.
I believe that we have entered into a mutually beneficial partnership that will
result in a long-lasting relationship of trust, opportunity and openness. I envision
a relationship that will continue to provide good employment opportunities for the
people of St. Cloud and Monticello; a relationship that will contribute to the high
quality of life for which Minnesota is known.
It is particularly gratifying for me to know that 100 percent of the employees hired
by CompuCredit in St. Cloud and Monticello are former Fingerhut employees. I
speak for the entire management team in saying that we appreciate the
opportunity to keep these hard working, capable individuals employed in their
communities of choice as they raise their families and seek desired levels of self-
sufficiency.
CompuCredit believes in being a good corporate citizen. As business leaders,
we accept our role in providing opportunities for communities like 8t. Cloud and
Monticello to prosper from a healthy and diverse economy.
Clearly from our conversations, I have much to learn about the area, though you
have provided some important insight. I now know that the barrage of snow this
Southerner experienced last February was not a blizzard because "St. Cloud
doesn't have blizzards." I appreciated Commissioner Haws' optimism that winter
months, though cold, keep the famed Minnesota mosquito in hiding. Having
heard the term "Johnnie," I am relieved to know its derivation.

Most importantly, I learned that we share a common bond of concern and hope
for our fellow friends and neighbors. On behalf of CompuCredit President Rich
House and myself, I extend warm appreciation for your support and interest in
CompuCredit. I will keep you up to date as we proceed with our investment in
maintaining a healthy work environment for our valued employees.
