WWW.CI.ANDOVER.MN.US TO: EDA President and Board CC: Jim Dickinson, Executive Direct FROM: Will Neumeister, Director of Commumty Development a4- SUBJECT: Approve Architectural Design (MBG Holdings) DATE: February 19,2008 IN1RODUCTION The EDA is asked to review and approve the attached architectural/site design of the proposed Moose Knuckles Restaurant (for MBG Holdings) that is to be built on the parcel ofland located north of First Regents Bank. 0 DISCUSSION The Andover Station Design Guidelines require the building to be reviewed by the Andover EDA to determine whether the design is in conformance to the qualities the EDA has established for this area. The materials that it will be built of insulated concrete with exterior fInish materials that will be stone and EIFS (stucco). The drawings show that there will be some stone on the front elevation however there isn't anything other than a few windows on the sides. There should be some embellishments with stone carried around the sides and possibly the rear elevations. This building will be seen from all angles. Staff feels that with the noted changes on how much stone will be used, the building would be found substantially in conformance with the Andover Station Design Guidelines. The final architectural and site designs will need to be reviewed during the Commercial Site Plan review process. ACTION REOUESTED The EDA is asked to approve the architectural design of the Moose Knuckles Restaurant with the noted changes above. The Andover Review Committee will review the site and modifIcations asked for on the architectural plans during the Commercial Site Plan Review process.

Day Care Site (Griffen Business Holdings) - The signed purchase agreement and $5,000 in earnest money are both in hand. They have started working with an architect on the site/construction drawings. There is some interest being shown in the north half of the lot by a dry cleaner and they are reviewing whether they can agree to allow them to locate on the adjacent parcel. 0 MVP Baseball (John Larkin) - Mr. Larkin is working to secure fmancing and has indicated he will close on the land purchase prior to February 29th. If he does not, he will likely be asking for a time extension at the next EDA meeting. Restaurant (Moose Knuckles) - A purchase agreement has been signed by Andy Stoner and the $5,000 earnest money has been paid. Closing is set to occur on or before April 1, 2008. Mr. Stoner has indicated that shouldn't pose any problem. He would like EDA approval of his architectural design this evening and that is on the consent agenda. Light Industrial Building (Dynamic Sealing Technologies) - The Commercial Site Plan review is done and they will be applying for a building permit very soon. They have a desire to have EDA approve an option agreement and agree to sell the lot to the south of the one that they bought last fall. The EDA will discuss that this evening. OffICe Development (Northstar Partners) - Our real estate agents continue to market the site for both office and light industrial uses. The listing agreement is set to expire on February 29, 2008. They have one lead that may be willing to write up a letter of intent and bring it forward very soon. It is likely they will want to come to the EDA meeting in March to ask for an extension on the listing agreement. Monument Signs - Staff has spoken with Commissioner Twistol about the sign design and she concurs that the design that was discussed last month is acceptable without any changes. Staff will now proceed to obtain price quotes on the sign and masonry work for the sign bases. ACTION REOUESTED 0 This is an informational update, no action is needed.

They were not very receptive to what was being asked of them (see attached e-mails). They plan to be at the EDA meeting to express their concerns. Based on their response, staff would like further direction from the EDA. Please give direction on how much they will be asked to pay and over what time frame. The associations need to budget for these expenses and this is the time of year to do that. They both express their concerns that their budgets 0 can't handle these annual expenses. They would like the City to pay them. There are a few items beyond those identified in the original proposal from Prairie Restorations that will be added costs to implement the program (i.e. traffic control, periodic mowing and weeding for 2-3 years, irrigation system repairs). Again, all the work in the proposal would be done in the spring/summer of 2008. We need to know how this work would be paid for, and by whom, before we can sign the authorization to proceed with Prairie Restorations, Inc. Staff met with members of the Andover Station II Owners Association and they brought up concerns about the street lighting costs for Jay and Martin Street. They have requested that the City investigate ways to save on lighting costs such as shutting down the majority of the lights down at 2:00 a.m. or leaving only the lights at intersections on. Other suggestions were also discussed such as leaving every other light on, etc. ACTION REOUESTED Please discuss and provide staff direction. Respectfully submitted, Will Neumeister.

We feel that the median on Bunker Lake Blvd is something the city of Andover and Anoka County should work out amongst themselves. Our association was never consulted with the decision to put the median in which in turn has caused unnecessary traffic thru our parking lot to get over to Caribou Coffee and Target. We are concerned with the high volume of cars driving thru our 101'81 'ilangerous speeds. Furthermore, we feel that now the city is trying to place the financial burden,.on !some of the business in the area to correct the problems that were created with your decision to put the:m.ediah in. ';:;~::';::::_:', ,::'~f~i;~rl'i~:~;i:f~~~;;~~i:J;i~:;~,iff,:j:::; :::.bt!iM[~r,U~ri~t~.we were wondering why plantings in the median on Martin Street were removed but "nQthing;\y~d(jne to the median on Jay Street. Jay Street has become unmanageable and we are nnable to rii~lnt!li;j'itjo:suitable standards. <',; , qi:;';:i~f;;[;i~<i ' Anoth~)ssYe we have is the excessive bill we receive at the end of the year from the city to maintain the median:onBunker Lake Blvd as well as the lighting of the streets around our complex. This year the amotm':t:t1i~:~ity wants from us is $9399.91. We can not continue to pay this bill, if are to maintain a busntessin the city of Andover. Many businesses in the complex are feeling the pinch of the economic situation of the economy and are concerned that they may have to close and move elsewhere if they have to continue paying these bills. We would like to know why we are required to pay for the above mentioned issues when other businesses are not. Also we would like to know what our taxes are paying for if it is not for the above mentioned issues. In closing, we feel that we should no longer be fmancially responsible for these items. We look forward to discussing the matters with you and coming up with and agreement that will work for all involved.

I can talk to Jim Dickinson about the possibility of a two-year billing if you feel that would be better for you. There will be some other costs that weren't shown such as lane closure, irrigation repair. On-going management was shown on the last page of the proposal. We think we will need that to get it growing properly and get their guarantee to be in effect. We are willing to sit down and discuss with you what options exist. We think this is the best option to get the costs under control.

WWW.CI.ANDOVER,MN.US January 18,2008. Jennifer L. Lenhart United Properties 3500 American Boulevard W. Minneapolis, MN 55431 Subject: Andover Station Median Work Dear Jennifer, As we have discussed this past fall, the City has been working to develop a plan to make it easier to do the maintenance of the Bunker Lake Boulevard median. Last fall we hired 0 Mickman Brothers Landscaping to do the removal of the weeds, dead plants and excess topsoil from the median. The charges to do that work amounted to approximately $13,500 and was paid for by the Andover EDA (see attached cost breakdown sheet from 2007). As you will recall we just let the weeds grow last summer until we figured out an approach that we thought would work and that did save some money. Now we are about to enter into a contract to do the native plant and grass installation and we would liketo sit down with you to explain what is involved and how we would like your participation to pay for this next stage. I have attached the detailed description of what we are planning to do. We think this is the best looking and least costly of all the alternatives that we looked at. Could you call me to set up a date and time to discuss this? Please call me at (763) 767- 5140. Best Regards~/~ Will Neumeister 0 -7'--- 0 Date: 1/10/2008 An outline of the suggested materials and procedures to be used to establish prairie grasses and wildflowers in the Bunker Lake Blvd Medians in Andover, Minnesota Site size: approximately 22,000 sqft A. Project Overview: 1. The medians on Bunker Lake Boulevard need an attractive and maintainable solution. Establishing native prairie grasses in the medians will provide a long term, ecologically sound landscape that is perfectly adapted to the existing soils. Once established, prairie grasses will require very little watering, and will add a distinctive look to the site. 2. Each of the medians will be seeded with a solid stand of one species of native short grass prairie grass. The largest median will be seeded with little bluestem and the other with side oats grama. The smaller median on Martin Street is to be seeded with June grass. 3. Both large medians will have accent gardens on each end (4 total) that will be planted with showy native wildflowers that are adapted to dry soil conditions. Five species of 0 flowers will be used to provide blooms throughout the growing season. A base seeding of blue grama., a very short native grass, will be used to provide ecological stability. 4. To establish this planting, the site will be treated with herbicide (twice) to kill existing weeds, mowed to remove dead vegetation, harrowed to provide a smooth seedbed, seeded with native grasses, and covered with straw erosion blanket to protect the seeding and enhance germination. B. Site Preparation: 1. Allow the site to green up, followed by an application of Roundup@ and Garlon 3A@ herbicides as per manufacturer's directions. Spot treat Canada thistle with Transline@ herbicide. Allow a minimum of30 days before disturbing the vegetation with other procedures. 2. Respray with Roundup@ if additional vegetation emerges during the waiting period. Allow a minimum of 10 days before disturbing the vegetation with other procedures. 3. Harrow or rake the soil to create a :fi.rm, smooth seedbed. C. Seed and Seeding: 0 1. Seeding dates shall be in the spring or summer before August 10th or in the fall between September 20th and freeze-up. - ~- 0 2. Once the soil has been prepared, the grass seed will be broadcast throughout the project area. 3. A harrowing or hand raking will follow to incorporate the seed into the soil. 4. The seed shall consist of the following species and amounts: West Median (8000 sf): Side oats grama (Bouteloua curtipendula) ..............______............4.0 Ibs. East Median (13,000 sf): Little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium) __...._.____..................6.0 Ibs. Accent Gardens (400 sf): Blue grama (Bouteloua gracilis) ....___________________...............__.......0.5 Ibs. Small Median (500 sf): June grass (Koeleria macrantha)........____________________................... 0.5 Ibs. Note: A wheat or oat cover crop can be sown along with the native grasses at a rate of approximately 25 Ibs. per acre. Wheat/oats is an annual grass species that germinates quickly and will reduce the risk of soil erosion on the site. 0 D. ]!:rosion Control: 1. Cover crop will be sown along with the native grasses. 2. Erosion blanket (S75 or equivalent) should be applied as per manufacturer's directions to the entire project area E. Plants and Planting: 1. Each of the four accent gardens will be planted with 90 four inch pots at an approximate spacing of 12" on center, for a total of 360 plants. 2. From the following list a minimum of 8 species will be used. Wildflowen Prairie onion (Allium stellatum) Prairie smoke (Geum triflorum) Pussytoes (Antennaria neglecta) Alum-root (Heuchera richardsonil) Butterfly weed V4sclepias tuberosa) Rough blazing star (Liatris aspera) Silky aster (Aster sericfms) Showy penstemon (Penstemon grandiflorus) Harebell (Campanula rotundifolia) Prairie phlox (Phlox pilosa) 0 Grasses Prairie dropseed (Sporobolus heterolepis) -c--- 0 F. Management: 1. During the first growing season the project area may need to be mowed to control annual weed development. If a "closed" canopy of weed cover develops, it should be mowed to aid in the growth of the prairie seedlings by reducing competition. Optimum cutting height would be 4 to 6 inches (depending on wildflower species present). Mowings done by PRl will be billed separately unless they are included as part of the installation contract. 2. In years following the fIrst growing season, management services could include site monitoring, burning, mowing, spot spraying, or hand weeding. These services should be contracted separately from the installation contract. Please note that management services are billed on a time and materials basis (a breakdown of cost ingredients would be available prior to contract acceptance). 3. In addition to service contracts, management consulting services are available upon request by calling our Services Group. G.

WWW.CI.ANDOVER.MN.US TO: EDA President and Board Cc: Jim Dickinson, Executive Director FROM: Will Neumeister, Director of Community Development SUBJECT: Consider Letter of Intent (Dynamic Sealing Technologies) DATE: February 19,2008 INTRODUCTION The EDA is asked whether they will entertain an Option Agreement and a new letter of intent from Dynamic Sealing Technologies, Inc. (DSTI) to buy the lot directly south of the parcel they bought last year. They would like to buy Lot 3, Block 3 and the east 35 feet of Lot 2, Block 3 to align with their parcel. See attached Plat Map of Andover Station North for the sites. They are also interested in obtaining an 18-month long option on the land for $10,000 (described above) to give them expansion potential. Their business is in a growth mode and they may need the additional space in a year or two. As explained by their Company President, "DSTI currently employs 23 well paid employees that will help boost local 0 business. The purchase of the second property is to support the forecasted growth to employ possibly double the current amount within the next 3-5 years." DISCUSSION They are offering $10,000 for an Option Agreement on the property for which they interested. The non- refundable option would be to secure the property until July 31, 2009 to allow them time to decide whether they want to purchase the additional land. The Purchase Agreement proposes a price of $3.60 per square foot for the land excluding the easements (including the park dedication and fee), with a price of $1.00 per square foot for the drainage and utility easement area of the lot. Staff has indicated to them that price is too low. The EDA will need to give direction on the offering price and the option price. See attached concept plan to see how this may help them with future expansion. ACTION REQUESTED The EDA is asked to discuss the Option and proposed land purchase from DSTI. If the general terms are acceptable, direct the City Attorney to work with their attorney to prepare the Option and Purchase Agreement. Final form of both documents would come forward at a future EDA meeting (March) for approval.
