Page 1 • IDC MINUTES JANUARY 21, 1993 4. CONSIDERATION OF PROSPECT UPDATES: a) Custom Canopy - City staff has met twice with Jim Beyl, company project manager, and reviewed the building plans. At the January 15 meeting, staff suggested the HRA provide TIF assistance to enhance a 50~ wall covering of brick, wood, stone, or architectural concrete along the front { Dundas ) and the length ( Fallon ) on the 9 , 320 sq f t proposed production/office structure. A conditional use permit would be necessary to allow no curbing in the area designated for future building expansion. The building was designed for the corner lot at Fallon and Dundas in the Oakwood Industrial Park. No formal process has begun on the financial approval as the preliminary GMEF application or TIF Letter of Tntent have not been completed or returned. Construction plans are for 1993 and the financial institution is the Elk River State Bank. b) All-Temp Distribution - A preliminary meeting discussing financial assistance options was held between Mr. John Holman and Koropchak on December 29. On January 13, Mr. Holman met with Jeff O'Neill, John Simola, Gary Anderson, Koropchak, and Charlie Anderson, NSP. The proposed • 50,000 sq ft refrigerated warehouse project has earmarked rail as a desire. City staff discussed public improvements necessary to develop the Hoglund property and Mr. Anderson told the group that NSF's primary need for the branch rail is for de-regulation. Currently, Burlington Northern is negotiating the sale of the branch operational rights to Minnesota Commercial Railroad. Mr. Holman would like a commitment on future rail availability. Total TIF assistance could be $150,000, building construction estimated at $2,750,000, and the estimated market value for land and building at $1,050,000. Mr. Holman awaits customer proposals prior to any site location decision. The IDC supported the need to keep an eye on the existence of the railroad and suggested a meeting between NSP, BN, and city staff. Koropchak informed IDC members of Mr. Holman's reference to the ad and the article on Monticello in the Minnesota Real Estate Journal. And he commented on the fine publication of the Monticello Community Guide. c) Wilson Tool International - Koropchak spoke with Mr. Emery around the first of January. The company continues to research and compare community development costs and anticipates community notification within two to three weeks. Monticello remains one of the top communities. The project is for 40,000 sq ft building with 85 jobs. • Page 2 • IDC MINUTES JANUARY 21, 1993 d) Leo Adams - Koropchak reported Circuit Technology, Inc. has re-surfaced. The startup company's potential for funding has changed as the partnership now consist of three partners and has $200,000 in equity. The company is looking to lease 12,000 to 15,000 sq ft and projects 15 full-time jobs. Koropchak marketed the TIF/SPEC Plan; however, Shingobee's interest is to work with an existing business. The company's niche is the quick turn-around time of printed circuit board prototypes. A local bank views the business plan to having merit with SBA funding. Merrlyn Seefeldt expressed Electro Industries may have an interest in leasing space to this startup company. e} Commercial Greenhouse - NSP sent out a site location request for 50 to 100 acres. Site to be within a 100- mile radius of the Twin Cities and accessible to gas service and water source. Initial jobs is 15. John McVay has assisted Koropchak in responding to this inquiry through Mr. Weidt. The IDC discussed potential sites of the Kline and Dan/Ted Holker properties and the need to access gas line maps. Ken Maus reiterated the need for a preliminary development plan/concept between the city/township or city/Buffalo to accommodate large . industrial prospects. f} Recreational Parts and Equipment - Koropchak reported that the 7,000 - 10,000 sq ft warehouse/catolog/retail facility would generate tax increment to support a TIF pay-as-you-go assistance of $5,000 annually. An economic district can legally be created; therefore, TIF assistance becomes a local policy decision. Prior to HRA action, the HRA requested knowing the percentage of retail to catolog sales. The HRA will consider the response of 50~ retail to catolog sales at their February meeting. Company representatives were contacted by Charles Pfeffer. Financial assistance is a deciding factor of site selection. Building occupancy planned for October 1993. BRE UPDATE: a) Genereux Fine Wood Products - Plans were confirmed with Bill and Barb Tapper for the IDC members to tour the facility on Friday, February 5 at 7:30 a.m. Koropchak will mail out a reminder. b) US Post Office - Koropchak noted to IDC members that she received copies of state congressional letters supporting a post office expansion at the current downtown site. U Page 3 IDC MINUTES JANUARY 21, 1993 5. CONSIDERATION TO REVIEW AND ADOPT THE 1993 ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT WORK PLAN AND IDC BUDGET. Koropchak highlighted new tasks incorporated into the 1993 Work Plan by the committee. Mary Micke inquired if the IDC was interested in marketing or assisting retail/commercial prospects. Based on the IDC's history of no retail/commercial marketing, the IDC affirmed their objective for industrial development marketing only; therefore, the Chamber may elect to market retail/commercial development. It was recommended to include this affirmative objective in the 1993 Work Plan. Ron Hoglund made a motion to adopt the 1993 Work Plan inclusive of the recommended objective, seconded by Mary Micke. With no further discussion, the motion passed unanimously. Tom Lindquist made a motion adopting the 1993 IDC Budget, seconded by Harvey Kendall.

Seconded by Mary Micke and with no further discussion, the motion passed unanimously. 8. CONSIDERATION TO VOLUNTEER FOR BRE VISITS AND IDC COMMITTEES.

Box 1147 Monticello, MN 55362-9245 Dear Ollie, On behalf of Wilson Tool International I wish to thank you for the time taken to visit our facility and the comprehensive information provided regarding the Monticello industrial area. It is indeed true that a picture is worth a thousand words and having visited the sites on Saturday, January 30th was invaluable. As a result, I have had the opportunity to meet with Jim Mishek, President of Wilson Tool and review each of the sites visited. The i:tnal decision has not been. made relative to Wilson Tool selecting a community to establish a manufacturing facility. We continue to evaluate data and it appears as this progresses more specific information may need to be obtained. Based upon our present status it appears that another two weeks will be needed before the next step is taken by us toward site selection. Upon further development, I will keep you informed and hope to have more information within the month. Thank you again for your hospitality and advocacy for your community.

(R.W.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: In June of 1991, the City Council adopted a resolution agreeing to hold all six lots of the Oakwood Industrial Park 2nd Addition for the H-Window Company's future expansion potential. This agreement expired on December 31, 1992, and the H-Window Company has not yet made a decision on whether to purchase the property. Because the agreement has expired, I contacted Mr. Steve Lemme, General Plant Manager for the Monticello facility, to inquire as to whether the H- Window Company was interested in renewing any agreements regarding these lots. Mr. Lemme noted that the company Board of Directors will be meeting in Monticello in May of 1993 to discuss and hopefully finalize their plans for a 30,000 sq ft expansion of the existing facility. He noted that before the directors would approve expanding at the present site, they would want to be • certain of having enough land available for future expansions and felt comfortable in being able to provide the City with an answer once and for all by June 1, 1993, regarding the 2nd Addition property. In regard to the potential expansion of the H-Window Company facility, Mr. Lemme felt that the westerly three lots, Lots 1, 2, and 3, were the most important parcels if the company was to expand at this site. Mr. Lemme felt that he would like to see the City hold these first three lots until June 1 and also would be agreeable to providing H-Window with a first right of refusal for Lots 4, 5, and 6, the easterly three lots of this plat. If the Council is agreeable to providing an extension to our original agreement and hold at least three of the lots until June 1, this would allow our Economic Development Director the opportunity to still market the other three lots to interested parties who have recently expressed an interest in smaller parcels within the industrial park. Should the City receive an offer to purchase one of the easterly three lots, H-Window Company would have the right of first refusal but would have to decide within 30 days whether to proceed with purchasing the property or allow the City to sell it. Since we have held the entire six-lot subdivision for over two years now at H-Window's request, agreeing to extend a hold on three of the lots for a few more months seems to be in our best interest. • . Council Agenda - 2/22/93 It should be noted that although the City has agreed to hold the lots for H- Window's benefit, both parties have never discussed nor agreed to a selling price for the property. I am assuming that this will be one of the next questions asked by H-Window, "how much is the property going to cost them." If H-Window becomes serious in purchasing the property, I assume we would want to establish an appraisal or offer the property at a similar per-acre price compared to other industrial property available. This per-acre cost may be different than would be our asking price if each 1- to 2-acre lot was sold separately. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Adopt the resolution agreeing to hold Lots 1, 2, and 3, Block 1, Oakwood Industrial Park 2nd Addition, for an additional time period expiring May 31, 1993, for the H-Window Company, and also providing a first right of refusal for Lots 4, 5, and 6 for the same time period. 2. Do not adopt the resolution and place the property on the market for other interested parties. • C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: As noted earlier, since the City has already held this property for 2 years, and since there has not been a lot of interest from other parties in purchasing any of the property, it appears to be in our best interest to hold Lots 1, 2, and 3 until the Norwegian Board of Directors makes a decision by June 1, 1993. In addition, allowing H-Window the first right of refusal on the easterly lots, 4, 5, and 6, would not deter us from offering those lots for sale to other interested parties in the meantime. D. SUPPORTING DATA: Copy of letter from H-Window requesting extension; Copy of resolution and first right of refusal agreement; Copy of map depicting lots being considered. • V • Q , •t• 04 r • ..

Box 1147 Monticello, MN 55362 Dear City Council Members: I am writing in regard to the acreage that lies,,,adjacent to the H Window property at the corner of County Road 117 and Du~ndas Road. The H Window Company has recently begun the preliminary evaluation for our first major expansion, tentatively scheduled for the Fall of this year (September 1993). Our long term concern is obviously focused on the future availability of the land which lies adjacent to our existing property line. While the long term requirements for acreage may be difficult to determine, we must insure that our future expansion capabilities do not become constrained. • Therefore, we would be interested if the City Council would consider the following proposal: 1 Protect Lo\ )~ is 1, 2, 3 until further discussions with the H Window Board of Directors (May 1993). 2)~ Provide the H Window Company with the "Right of First Refusal" on Lots 4, 5, 6. 1~~ ~ A. Lots 1, 2, 3 Only B. Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 In total As the Board of Directors is scheduled to visit within the next few months (May 1993), we would appreciate if decisions affecting the potential sale of this property could be protected until more detailed discussions can be arranged. • 3)~ Prepare a complete valuation/proposal for the H Window to purchase: Steven Lemme President/General Manager CITY OF MONTICELLO ~UILDING/ZONINGY Building inspection (non-permit related) Building permit fees Conditional use permit Moving buildings ,~ lat subdivisions & PUD's Plumbing permits Residential $ 30 - 1st hour $ 15 per hour thereafter SEE ATTACHED SCHEDULE (198F3 RATES) $ 125 + expenses $ 100 + expenses (base) $ 300 + 100/acre up to 10 acres; $ 25 per acre after 10 acres + expenses if it exceeds what collected--if under, City will refund the excess of the per acre deposit. • Commercial Rezoning request (all necessary consulting exp.)

Call and write your local representative and senator and tela them in your own wands that: 1• The 7992 workers' compensation reform law was only a begutning. It fell. far short of the comprehensive reforms needed to make our state's workers' compensation system more competitive with our x-eighboring states. 2. We can't afford to wait several rx~ore years before enacting additional workers' compensation reforms. We need additional, significant workers' compensation reforms u~ 1993. 3• We strongly oppose any legislation aimed at undoing parts of the 1992 workers' compensation reform law. - Attend on a regular basis "Eggs 'n Issues" or other similar meetings held with ]oval legislators iii the district and continue to press the need for additional workers' compensation reforms in 1993. • - When callfu,g, writing, and attending meetings with legislators, tell them that we ne legislation which addresses two critical reform principles essential for comprehensive workers' compensation refnrzxz: #1 Eliminate long-ten21 compensation benefits for people without serious disabilities who are physically able to work at nteanin$ful employment; and #2 depoliticize the appeals process and othex rneasuxes to dise;ourage unnecessary, costly litigation in workers' compensation cases. Specifically, urge them to support legislation which addresses these two reform principles by: 1• Adopting a more restrictive defir-itioz- of a perzz~anent fatal disability injury, 2• Elintinati.ng supp]en~ental benefits and replacing them with a ntinirt,um floor for permanent total disability benefits set at 6S% of the statewide average weekly wage. 3, Abolishing the Workers' Compezrsatian Court of Appeals and transferruzg those functions to the state's regular court of appeals. 4• Establishing an appropriate definition of "suitable job" offer, and/or by elu7unating luzx~p sum payments for permanency awards while continuing periodic payment of those awards at regular intervals as >`G the case in Wisconsin, • - FuzaUy, express your support fox return o.f excess assets of the WLRA directly to employers, but remind your legisl<~tors that any money retuxned will be a one ~tizne refund and will not substitute for additional, sigrificant reforms of the workers' compensation system.
