Administrator Rick Wolfsteller. Members Absent. Everette Ellison. Koropchak reported that she had met with Brad Larson regarding the HRA's additions and changes to the Option Agreement between the Broadway Square Limited Partnership (OPTIONEE) and the Monticello Housing and Redevelopment Authority (OWNER). Metcalf and Larson agreed to all the NRA additions and changes except would not agree to the increased figure of $67.200.00 under terms and conditions O1. Koropchak explained the rationale of the HRA's request of $67,200 to be paid the OWNER which was based on the numbers working out at the current negotiable purchase prices for properties, these numbers becoming very close. Koropchak and Mr. Larson reworked the numbers in Mr. Larson's office and Mr. Larson agreed that the projected project costs of the district and the projected tax increment would be very close. however, checking with Mr. Metcalf, the partnership remained firm on the payment of $56,000.00. Koropchak indicated she would need to return to the HRA for their decision. Administrator Wolfsteller said that within the Development Contract between the developer and the HRA, it states that such a site building will be constructed and will generate such amount of tax increment based on the assessed value placed on the building by the county assessor. Within this contract a contingency can be included that if for some unknown reason the stated tax increment is not generated (example: mill rate decreases), for those years only, the developer will pay such difference for the duration of the said debt service. Lowell Schrupp made a motion to accept the total purchase price to be paid to the OWNER shall be $56,000, or the amount determined by FmRA for mortgage purposes, whichever is greater. This under terms and conditions 01 of the above said Option Agreement. Ben Smith seconded the motion. Discussion included the noting of such said contingencies to be included within this development contract. Motion passed 4-0.
