SUBJECT: Time Extension Request (MVP Baseball Academy, Inc.)
DATE: April 15,2008
INTRODUCTION
The original purchase agreement has officially expired. As of April 1 s" staffhas begun to work on
marketing the property to others who may be interested. To bring this up once again before the EDA,
the EDA would first have to decide that they will honor the terms and conditions of the original
purchase agreement.
Mr. Larkin is asking the EDA to honor the original purchase agreement, and extend the time to
o complete the purchase agreement. Mr. Larkin has indicated that he is still pursuing getting an SBA loan
and needs approximately 90 days of additional time to complete the land purchase.
The original letter of intent from John Larkin was approved by the EDA on March 20, 2007 and the
original closing date was set for August 1, 2007. That report and letter of intent is attached to show the
EDA once again what his proposal was and how his endeavor was being envisioned. The concept he
still wants to pursue follows what was in the original letter of intent.
ACTION REQUESTED
Staff requests direction from the EDA on the following:
1. Is there interest in honoring the terms and conditions of the original purchase agreement?
2. If the EDA answers the fIrst question affirmatively, what length of time would the EDA allow
Mr. Larkin to complete the purchase of Lot 1, Block 1, Andover Station North? Realistically he
needs a minimum of an additional 90 days to put together his SBA loan.

SUBJECT: Letter of Intent (John Larkin)
DATE: Ech 20,-200
INTRODUCTION
The EDA is asked to review the newest "Letter of Intent" from John Larkin. He indicates that he
would like to purchase the lot directly east of the ball fields and build a tip up panel structure to be
home to his MVP baseball training academy as well as a gymnastics training facility. The site plan
0 shows that he would build at least 26,400 square foot of building in the first phase. They would like to
have an outdoor practice hitting area. The site plan may need to be slightly adjusted and that can be
dealt with during the site plan review process. This will be needed to avoid the 200 foot setback from
the WDE landfill (should he ever want to expand the building to 52,000 square feet).
Please review the attached document to understand what Mr Larkin is proposing to construct at
Andover Station North. Mr. Larkin will be at the EDA meeting to make a presentation to the
commissioners on his proposal. The staff is supportive of his proposal as the land price is comparable
to what the land appraisal indicates the site is worth. Please recall that the building will need to be
constructed to have special monitoring and venting systems to meet the MnPCA's requirements as it is
within 500 feet of the WDE landfill. This enters into the price'Mr. Larkin is willing to offer on the
land purchase.
ACTION REOUESTED
Please allow Mr. Larkin to make a short presentation at the meeting and consider his proposal to buy
one of the lots at Andover Station North to build a ball training facility (Lot 1, Block 1, Andover
Station North).
Respectfully sUbm~
