July 31, 2023 City Council/Port Authority Concurrent Meeting
A
A
A
Again,
thanks
everybody
for
being
here,
we've
got
a
a
good
group,
especially
a
good
group
in
in
the
house
here,
so
welcome
to
everybody.
Looking
forward
to
the
presentations
tonight
remind
everybody
around
the
table
that,
in
order
to
speak,
you
have
to
push
the
button
and
the
green
light's
got
to
come
on
on
the
microphone
in
front
of
you
and
then
after
you're
done
speaking.
A
If
you
could
turn
it
off
again
it
it
cuts
down
on
the
background
chatter
and
makes
it
a
little
bit
cleaner
in
the
recording
and
for
the
folks
watching
our
first
order
of
business
tonight
is
the
approval
of
minutes.
A
B
D
B
A
Second,
item
on
our
agenda
is
organizational
business
and
we've
got
a
presentation
regarding
our
Small
Business
Development
Center.
Excuse
me
Small
Business,
Center
and
Carly
Henderson
and
Barb
Wolfe
are
here
to
kick
us
off
and
I
know.
We've
got
some
exciting
news
and
looking
forward
to
seeing
what
the
updates
are
on
this
good
evening.
Welcome.
Thank.
E
You
Mr
Mayor
Mr,
President,
council
members
and
Commissioners.
It's
been
about
seven
months
since
we've
been
before
you
and
there
has
been
a
lot
of
work
that
has
happened,
and
so
we
were
sitting
around
and
this
concurrent
meeting
came
up
and
I
thought.
This
is
a
great
time
for
us
to
come
up
here
and
share
our
work
and
bring
some
friends
along
because
we've
got
a
lot
to
share.
F
Yes,
so
when
we
were
here
last
before
in
December,
one
thing
that
I
want
to
address
I
came
before
you
in
special
projects
and
initiatives
and
now
I'm
in
the
Port
Authority.
So
focusing
my
work
with
the
business
Community
I
think
a
lot
of
what
we're
going
to
talk
about
will
come
up
in
the
slides
later
on.
So
I'll
give
those
updates
at
a
later
point,
but
with
that
I
would
like
to
introduce
Fran
DiCaprio
from
formula
who
is
our
lead
architect
on
this
project.
G
Hello,
yeah
I'm,
Fran,
DiCaprio
I'm,
a
designer
at
formula
and
I'm,
actually
stepping
in
for
Paola
Sanchez,
who
is
out
of
town
she's,
been
the
project
manager
for
this.
So
I'm,
coming
in
a
little
last
minute
to
you
know,
present
our
work
for
you
today,
so
formulas
led
by
Nathan
and
James,
and
you
know,
Paula
has
been
managing
this
project.
This
is
a
list
of
some
of
our
collaborators
I.
Think
for
now.
H
A
H
I'll
just
maybe
follow
up
a
little
bit,
I'm
Julie
McLeod
with
Alliance,
and
this
is
Greta
froster
with
Alliance,
and
we
are
partnered
with
formula
Architects
kind
of
a
joint
design
Venture
together
we're
both
both
architectural
firms
and
Greta
and
I,
and
our
team
have
been
working
closely
with
the
on
the
interior
portions
of
the
building
and
so
we're
going
to
start
off
with
a
little
introduction
to
the
ideas
behind
the
building.
Once
we
find
our
slide.
I
J
D
D
I
Well,
thank
you
for
letting
us
join.
You,
like
Julie,
said
we
are
really
excited
to
share
this
project
with
you.
We
worked
with
the
advisory
committee
several
times
and
what
continued
to
resonate
with
us
was
this
connection
to
the
existing
fire
station
right
and
really
appreciating
what
that
meant,
and
so,
as
we
were,
building
our
concept
and
going
through
these
meetings
and
talking
about
what
the
space
was
going
to
become,
we
reflected
on
the
importance
of
a
fire
station
in
a
community.
I
It's
foundational
right,
it's
iconic,
it's
recognizable,
and
so
what
does
that
translate
into
the
future?
And
looking
at
the
Small
Business
Center
as
the
future
to
support
the
community
and
local
Bloomington
residents,
it
seemed
like
there
was
a
strong
connection
between
Fire
Department
fire
station
and
supporting
a
community
and
the
Small
Business
Center.
H
So
what
you
can
see
very
small
on
the
screen
is
the
building
outline
and
what's
really
wonderful
about
this
building.
Is
that
it's
it
used
to
house
vehicles,
and
so
it
was
very
large,
open
interior
and
the
vehicles
drove
in
one
side
and
out
the
other,
and
so
there
were
a
lot
of
openings
and
we
felt
like
hearing
what
the
advisory
committee
was
interested
in.
It
really
gave
this
opportunity
to
really
open
the
building
up
both
to
connect
with
the
community,
but
also
to
kind
of
expand
the
available
space
I
think
very
quickly.
H
So
generally,
we
kept
a
core
of
Plumbing
kinds
of
features:
the
the
restrooms
where
the
plumbing
was
in
the
building
today
and
kind
of
off
to
the
side
and
then
really
allowed
the
central
portions
of
the
building
to
open
up
and
house
different
programs
and
the
plan
that
you
see
up
in
the
upper
part.
It
looks
like
it's
a
series
of
rooms
and
there
is
the
opportunity
to
enclose
it
as
a
room,
but
you
can
actually
move
those
walls.
The
idea
is
to
be
able
to
move
the
walls
and
open
up
that
space.
H
So
you
can
make
a
small
classroom.
You
could
make
a
large
classroom
or
you
could
make
one
really
large
space.
That's
capable
of
gathering
groups
of
people
together
and
then
in
the
third
Bay
or
the
western
side
of
the
building
are
smaller
spaces
for
incubator,
Studios,
one-on-one
work,
small
huddle
rooms.
You
know
so
really
trying
to
provide
a
range
of
opportunities,
a
range
of
activities
that
could
happen
in
the
building
and
allow
that
to
change
over
the
course
of
the
day.
H
So
rooms
that
are
used
for
a
classroom
in
the
morning
could
be
used
for
a
studio
space
in
the
afternoon
and
so
really
trying
to
maximize
the
use
of
that
space.
So,
generally
speaking,
it's
a
big
open
pallet
of
opportunities
within
the
building
with
some
supporting
spaces,
including
a
work
Cafe
and
restrooms
and
showers.
So
Greg
is
going
to
tell
us
a
little
bit
more
about
really
the
kind
of
the
fun
part
of
the
building.
I
Sure
so
this
is
like
a
co-working
space.
I
mean
many
of
you
may
have.
You
know,
set
up
shop
there,
and
so,
when
we
were
looking
at
the
next
slide
shows
some
of
those
inspiration,
images
and
what
we
liked
about
this
is
you
know
these
are
precedent:
images
talking
about
the
character
of
space
that
this
co-working
space
can
become.
We
know
it's
an
industrial
building
right,
and
so
how
do
we
preserve
that
and
enhance
it?
A
I
Julie
said
that
openness
and
the
connection
to
Daylight
it's
really
important
as
humans
and
as
we
work
to
be
exposed
to
good
day
light,
so
we've
got
plenty
of
opportunity.
Another
thing
that
I
think
these
images
really
show
and
what
we
did
in
the
space
was
to
focus
on
color
and
kind
of
a
way
of
wayfinding
or
identifying
spaces,
creating
privacy,
also
presenting
kind
of
social
cues
to
what
behavior
is
expected.
I
We
also
like
the
vibrancy
of
the
color
that
to
us
and
the
advisory
committee
really
represents
the
city
of
Bloomington,
and
so
we
wanted
to
embrace
that.
And
so
that's
you
know.
One
of
those
kind
of
inspiration
points
was
that
those
primary
colors
found
in
that
first
slide
that
I
talked
about
around
the
fire
station.
I
You'll
see
those
kind
of
the
palette
so
introducing
texture
and
pattern
and
color
in
deliberate
ways
to
help
kind
of
for
people
to
understand.
You
know
where
quiet
is
found
where
active
is
found
to
engage,
also
a
real
opportunity
within
this
building
for
the
community
to
present
art
and
we've
got
a
couple
places
where
rotating
exhibits
will
be
housed.
We
also
are
really
focusing
on
kind
of
the
identity
of
the
space
and
the
interest
of
the
space.
I
H
And
that
the
space
could
really
be
both
a
studio
or
a
production
kind
of
or
a
you
know,
a
development
kind
of
space,
but
it
also
can
become
that
showcase
to
share
the
things
that
the
members
are
producing
or
creating
within
that
space.
So
it
really
conflicts
between
those
two
functions
as
well.
Yeah.
G
Okay,
I
brought
some
samples
from
our
office
I
actually
keep
turning
around
to
see
what
I'm
actually
looking
at
on
the
screen
here,
but
on
the
screen,
there's
a
sample
of
some
metal
panels
that
we've
been
looking
at
for
the
project.
G
So
if
you're
familiar
with
the
existing
building,
you
know
currently
there's
just
kind
of
like
this
continuous
brick
material
on
all
sides,
and
so
we've
been
exploring
ways
to
you
know
not
do
too
many
radical
changes
but
kind
of
take
what
we
have
there
and
and
add
a
new
dimension
to
it.
So
one
thing
we've
been
exploring
is:
is
these
perforated
metal
panels
that
formula
has
used
on
many
other
projects
and
there's
a
lot
of
opportunities
that
come
from
that,
so
those
it
can.
K
G
In
a
variety
of
colors
and
you'll
see
what
we
have
in
some
some
of
the
vendors,
what
we've
gone
with
so
far
as
well
as
a
variety
of
like
perforation.
G
So
these
are
some
samples
from
Bach
metals
of
just
some
things
that
we
were
looking
at,
and
so
there
are
some
standard
patterns
that
you
can
see
here,
but
then
there's
also
potential
to
do
some
custom
stuff
and
it
becomes
like
the
panels
become
an
art
opportunity
that
can
go
on
all
sides
of
the
building
and
we're
particularly
looking
at
incorporate
it
onto
the
front
face
of
the
building.
We
got
some
some
vendors
coming
up,
but
you
can
kind
of
see
what
these
look
like
and
they're.
They
have
a
very
clean
aesthetic.
G
It's
also
very
easy
to
maintain
when
they're
installed,
so,
hopefully
it'll
be
a
good
fit
for
the
project.
A
mind
control
here.
How
do
I
do
next
slide.
G
So
this
is
some
previous
work
by
formula,
so
it's
juxtaposition
Arts
a
new
art
center
in
Minneapolis,
and
this
just
got
its
grand
opening.
This
weekend
there
was
a
great
party
that
we
were
able
to
attend
and-
and
just
is
very
happy
I
mean
just
as
you
know,
you're,
probably
where
they're
doing
engagement
work
for
this
project.
So
you
can
see
in
these
images
what
I
was
talking
about
with
those
perforated
metal
panels
and
how
we
have
these
red
panels
on
that
project
and
they
become.
G
You
know
this
art
opportunity,
so
Roger
Cummings,
one
of
the
main
guys
at
juxtaposition
designed
this
continuous
pattern
that
runs
along
the
the
the
front
and
side
of
the
building.
And
so
there's
a
potential
to
you
know,
engage
in
artists
do
similar
work
for
this
project
and
then
you
can
also
see
on
Great
River
Landing.
G
So
the
inside
of
that
of
where
that
entrance
is
is
also
a
similar
metal
panel.
That
became
an
art
of
opportunity
and
then
you
can
also
see
the
incorporation
of
LEDs
in
this
project
they're
also
on
juxtaposition
Arts.
Although
these
photos
aren't
showing
that
led
integration,
but
it
becomes,
this
Beacon
essentially
turns
the
building
into
a
beacon
that
can
attract
people
light
up
at
night
and
and
become
just
a
real.
You
know,
icon
in
that
neighborhood
right.
L
G
G
Some
vendors
from
from
the
project-
and
so
you
can
see
the
white
material
that
we
have
on
the
front-
is
that
perforated
metal
panel
it's
hard
to
see
at
this
resolution,
but
you
can
see
how
that
it
can
get
overlaid
directly
onto
the
brick
and
it
provides
this
interesting
screen
and
creates
a
nice
texture
right.
The
other
material
that
you'll
see
highlighted
is
it
looks
kind
of
gray
on
the
screen,
but
it's
a
blue
metal
panel,
and
so
this
is
like
a
sample
of
that
in
a
different
color.
G
What
we're
looking
at
is
a
is
by
centria.
They
make
these
metal
panels,
and
so
it
would
go
over
the
building.
Currently,
where,
like
the
the
Goof,
is
on
the
building,
so
we'd
be
removing
that
roof,
and
then
attaching
this.
This
blue
metal
panel
that
wraps
around
the
building
and
the
metal
panel
and
this
panel
can
also
become
it-
can
serve
two
purposes
so
on
the
west.
Face
of
the
building.
G
There's
like
a
sort
of
parking
area
and
and
by
see
it
can
be
painted
over
or
graphic,
can
be
applied
onto
this
metal
panel.
So
there
can
be
a
sort
of
wayfinding
on
that
face
of
the
building,
because,
if
you're
parking,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
people
know
where
the
entrance
is
so
there
can
be
an
opportunity
to
have
Graphics
to
direct
people
to
the
entrance,
as
well
as
potentially
an
art
opportunity.
G
So
that's
been
discussed
in
some
meetings
of
there's
different
ways
that
can
be
done,
but
either
a
vinyl,
applied,
graphic
or
paint
could
be
done
onto
a
panel
like
this
to
create
an
exterior
art
opportunity.
G
A
few
final
things
to
call
out
is
so
you
can
see
on
that
main
on
the
south
face
of
the
building,
where
we
have
these
large
doors
from
the
fire
station.
We're
looking
at
incorporating
these
folding
docking
door,
a
docking
door
system,
we've
explored
there's
a
couple
products
that
can
serve
that
purpose,
but
it'd
be
a
collapsible
door
that
can
basically
open
up
the
space
and
it
can,
you
know,
create
this.
G
You
know
transparency
or,
like
a
porous,
you
know,
dividing
the
wall
between
the
exterior
and
the
interior
and
in
doing
so,
can
really
activate
that
front
patio
space
that
we're
creating
in
this
building.
Where
it
can
be
a
place
for
you
know
whether
it's
just
like
casually
mating
or
having
lunch
or
having
larger
Gatherings,
and
because
it's
in
the
front
and
the
back,
you
can
imagine
situations
whether
permitting
where
the
stores
opens
up,
and
you
have
like
a
clear
view
through
the
building
and
it
creates.
G
You
know
just
a
sense
of
like
this.
This
open
volume
that
connects
the
entirety
of
the
site
right
and
I
believe
those
incorporation
of
a
similar
kind
of
wall
in
the
in
some
of
the
meeting
spaces
inside
that
you
may
have
seen
on
that
plan.
That
Alliance
was
talking
through
earlier.
G
Finally
yeah,
just
the
LEDs,
you
can
start
to
see
how
that's
being
integrated
on
that
canopy
in
front,
so
that'd
be
a
custom
canopy
that
we'll
that
we're
gonna
that
we've
already
designed
we
have
to
you
know
finish
detailing,
and
they
can
connect
to
some
of
the
stairs
that
are
along
that
West
face
of
the
building.
G
So
I
believe,
that's
it
for
me.
If
you
can
pass
it
over
to
Pat
O'neill
the
talk
flu,
a
what
we're
looking
at
for
the
skylights.
M
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
having
me
I
got
a
few
show
and
tell
items
so
my
name
is
Pat
O'neill
I'm
with
daylight,
Specialists,
we're
a
top-down
d-lighting
company
and
when
I
say
that
it's
our
main
focus
is
is
skylights.
Okay,
now,
whether
that
be
a
traditional
Skylight,
glass
or
plastic
or
fiberglass
sandwich
panel
or
a
hybrid
Skylight,
which
we
will
be
talking
about
today,
and
that
is
a
tubular
daylight
device.
How
many
people
in
here
have
ever
heard
of
a
solo
tube,
a
lot
of
people?
Okay?
This
is
great.
M
So
it's
solo,
tube
residential,
much
larger,
okay.
So
we're
going
to
focus
on
that.
Our
main
brands
that
we
use
for
skylights
are
are
Velux,
Sun,
Optics
and,
of
course,
Solatube,
which
we'll
talk
about
tonight
before
we
get
much
further.
M
M
So,
let's
just
focus
on
that
for
one
second,
because
it's
really
really
critical
in
the
way
you
deliver
daylight
and
that's
the
difference
between
a
hybrid
skylight
and
a
traditional
Skylight,
traditional
Skylight
diffuses,
or
spreads
the
light
into
the
room
at
a
much
higher
level
at
the
maybe
roof
level
or
slightly
above
tubular
daylighting
device
harness
that
drives
it
down
a
pipe
and
then
diffuses
it
or
delivers
it
much
deeper
into
the
space.
M
So
daylight
is
really
important
in
tubular
daylighting
devices
tdds
as
I'll
refer
to
them
time
time
allowing
the
400
to
700
nanometers
of
the
visible
light
spectrum,
and
that
is
the
the
Full
Spectrum
Lighting
that
we
can
see
the
colors
of
the
rainbow
right,
we're
blocking
out
the
ultraviolet,
400,
380,
400,
nanometers
and
lower,
and
then
the
infrared
so
the
Heat,
and
that
little
block
of
light
is
the
light
that
affects
our
circadian
rhythm,
which
determine
our
sleep
cycle,
immune
system
functionality,
inner
growth
and
development
very
important
there.
Now,
within
that
400
to
700
nanometers.
M
I'm
not
quite
sure
how
that
happened,
so
I
was
just
going
to
show
on
the
previous
slide.
We
do
have
these.
These
tubes
also
do
allow
in
the
proper
daylight,
to
accommodate
plant
life.
So
if
somebody
sets
a
plant
underneath
it
they're
able
to
sustain
that
plant
life,
oh
it
went
back
there.
It
is
right
there,
yeah
I
didn't
touch
it
okay,
so
if
anybody's
ever
been
in
the
memory
Hotel
in
Downtown
Minneapolis,
it's
a
by
flick
design,
it's
it's
a
kind
of
a
one
of
a
kind
design.
M
That's
that's
stay
lit
with
tropical
plants
in
the
middle
of
downtown
Minneapolis.
So
it's
kind
of
neat.
So
let's
talk
about
tubular
daylighting
devices.
So
what
we
do
is
we
harness
daylight
up
on
the
roof,
and
this
dome
right
here
is
a
21
inch
Dome,
and
this
is
what
we're
looking
at
for
the
majority
of
the
tubes
in
this
project.
M
It
uses
a
fresnel
lens
design,
fresnel
lens
inventive,
for
the
lighthouse
to
harvest
in
daylight
and
direct
daylight
in
a
single
pattern.
Okay,
so
here
we're
harvesting
daylight
in
the
morning
and
the
evening
hours
harvesting
and
driving
it
down
in
the
tube
while
rejecting
the
high
intensity
daylight.
So
it's
a
much
more
controlled
daylight
than
a
traditional
Skylight.
M
Once
we
get
it
into
the
tubing,
we
transfer
it
through
a
rigid
tubing
at
a
90
99.7
rate
with
a
color
rendition
rate,
so
we're
we're
actually
not
having
any
color
shifts
of
of
close
to
100
as
well.
Once
we
get
it
down
to
the
bottom,
we're
gonna,
the
real
important
part
is:
how
do
we
let
the
light
loose
end
of
the
room
or
diffuse
it
so
either
we're
going
to
use
like
a
broad
spectrum
or
tighter
collimated
beam
to
drive
the
light
down.
M
E
If
I
could
just
add
Pat,
there
are
10
skylights
already
in
the
fire
station
they're
covered
up.
So
as
he's
explaining
this,
we
already
have
the
skylights.
This
would
just
be
added,
but
we're
not
going
to
replace
them
with
skylights
but
actually
use
this
product.
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
everybody
was
aware.
M
M
N
M
M
M
M
There.
We
go
some
different
applications
in
the
upper
left.
We
have
a
fire
station,
though
I
know
we
do
have
a
larger
shaft
that
we
are
looking
to
replace
one
of
those
skylights
in
there,
and
that
would
be
a
product
that
we
use
on
the
upper
left
in
in
that
example,
and
that
one
just
has
a
more
collimated
beam.
It's
a
much
larger
tube,
it's
29
inches.
So
it's
going
to
produce
a
lot
more
Daylight,
but
it's
going
to
drive
it
deeper
into
the
space.
M
The
second
example
over
in
the
middle
there
on
the
top
that
one
there
at
Jackson
gray,
is
exactly
what
we're
looking
and
proposing
for
this
project,
along
with
the
one
on
the
lower
left
at
the
Quality
bicycle
products,
and
then
I
just
threw
a
couple.
Others
in
here,
for
example,
on
the
McCray
school,
there
is
actually
a
single
Source
light,
so
that
one
has
a
high
efficiency
LED
in
it,
as
well
as
natural
Daylights.
M
M
O
Good
evening,
I'm
Alejandra
polinka,
director
of
creative
Place
making
and
I
wanted
to
touch
a
little
bit
more
on
some
of
the
art
opportunities
for
the
building.
So
the
creative
Place
making
commission
is
really
excited
to
continue
our
support
of
the
Small
Business
Center,
both
in
the
physical
space
and
in
future
programming
and
so
expanding
the
capacity
of
local
artists
and
supporting
the
arts
and
culture
culture
sector
within
Bloomington
is
really
an
important
part
of
our
creative
Place
making
work.
O
Some
of
the
internal
art
opportunities
and
that's
what
you're
seeing
on
the
screen
here
could
be
entryway
art
and
so
that
could
maybe
wrap
from
the
exterior
of
the
building
into
the
vestibule
area,
which
would
create
a
really
welcoming
atmosphere
but
also
just
highlight
the
main
entrance
of
the
building.
Murals
or
a
picture.
O
So
we're
currently
working
on
prioritizing
the
art
projects
so
that
they
align
with
the
construction
timeline.
And
we
anticipate
there
to
be
several
phases
in
implementing
this
work
and
I.
Think
there's
a
benefit
in
having
phases,
because
we
can
consult
with
future
users
of
the
space
to
identify
what
they'd
like
to
see
in
the
building
and
so
that
they
can
also
have
some
ownership
and
maybe
selecting
future
art
projects
or
artists.
O
F
F
Apologize
for
looking
behind,
but
some
of
the
update
for
what
we've
been
doing
surrounding
Community
engagement
since
we're
here
last
in
December.
Of
course,
we
continued
with
our
advisory
committee,
and
so
our
advisory
committee
met
for
10
meetings.
We
concluded
that
work
in
April
earlier
this
year.
F
We
really
use
the
advisory
committee
that
you
heard
earlier
from
Alliance
to
really
inform
what
that
space
looks
like
and
back
in
April
we
had
quite
a
party,
and
so
the
mayor
was
there,
and
we
also
had
Hennepin
County,
Commissioner,
gotel
and
also
council,
member
Martin
and
the
project
team
and
a
whole
bunch
of
people
just
to
have
a
party
and
celebrate
the
work
that
they
did,
because
it
was
really
a
lot
of
work.
F
Then
we
also
presented
Carlin
myself
to
the
Multicultural
advisory
committee
out
of
our
own
Police
Department,
Public
Health,
and
also
creative
Place
making
earlier
in
June.
We
were
at
the
farmers
market,
so
one
of
the
subconsultants
with
our
team
is
juxtaposition
arts,
and
so
they
really
assisted
in
our
engagement
activities
that
we
performed,
and
it
was
also
really
important
that
we
engage
youth.
F
So
that
is
one
of
our
priority
groups,
just
as
a
reminder:
it's
bypoc
owned
businesses,
women-owned
businesses,
Youth
and
artists,
and
so
we
engaged
a
number
of
Youth
from
blooming
Meadows,
which
is
an
apartment
building
adjacent
to
this
business
center
and
they
assisted
us
at
all
of
our
events.
So
far
and
they'll
also
be
there
this
weekend
as
well.
So
at
the
farmers
market,
one
of
the
things
that
we
did
is
we
asked
if
you
were
to
create
a
small
business.
What
would
it
be?
F
So
that
was
a
lot
of
fun.
You'll
see
a
picture
here.
Another
thing
that
we
did,
that
you
see
some
of
those
objects
there
that
the
folks
are
using
at
the
workshops.
We
had
one
at
Blooming
Meadows
and
then
we
also
had
one
that
was
actually
at
the
fire
station.
F
So
what
we
use
there
is
a
inclusive,
sensory
based
activity.
This
originated
by
James
Rojas,
who
is
a
well-known
urban
planner,
Community
activist
and
artist,
and
really
what
we
did
with
this
activity
is
to
cross
that
language
barrier,
and
so
what
people
were
asked
to
do
is
to
design
something
that
they
enjoy
in
their
Community,
whether
that
was
as
a
child
in
a
different
Community
than
ours.
But
what
does
that
look
like?
And
what
would
they
like
to
have
in
the
new
business
center?
F
So
that's
afraid
to
almost
push
us.
This
is
a
temporary
art
installation,
that's
out
at
the
fire
station
currently,
so
it
went
up
as
colorful
and
it
was
designed
by
youth
at
a
juxtaposition
Arts
again
using
youth
as
part
of
this
project,
and
so
it
was
put
up
and
then
after
they
participated
at
the
farmers
market.
F
In
the
workshop
at
Blooming
Meadows,
it
was
really
fun
to
see
that
they
took
the
responses
on
those
cardboard
discs
and
the
people
that
were
at
the
workshop
were
actually
able
to
go
there
after
the
event
and
see
their
ideas
on
there.
So
the
the
students
were
the
artists
for
this
and
put
that
up
there
you'll
see
on
the
left.
That's
Harmony,
Harrison
she's,
a
young
artist
that
participated
and
then
the
attend
a
couple
of
the
attendees
that
were
at
the
Saturday
workshop
at
the
fire
station.
F
So
we
do
have
an
open
house.
That's
happening
this
Saturday
from
11
to
2
and
we're
going
to
have
a
number
of
activities
there.
We
will
have
a
working
fire
truck
with
firefighters,
so
encouraging
the
kids
to
get
on
the
fire
truck.
We'll
also
have
an
ice
cream
cart
to
enjoy
free
ice
cream
and
balloon
animals.
F
We
will
also
have
a
project
team
and
employees
there
to
talk
through
the
renderings
and
what
the
space
is
meant
to
be
we're
also
going
to
have
an
artist
there,
Papa
embe
and
he's
a
co-founder
of
the
its
Festival,
which
is
an
annual
Festival
that
allows
for
black
owned
spaces
that
spark
purpose
and
create
positive
life.
Experiences
for
the
bipod
communities
and
as
he's
creating
this
music
with
the
input
from
the
participants.
He'll
do
a
final
recording
for
us
that
will
be
part
of
this
project
that
people
can
listen
to.
P
Thank
you
so
much
Barb
good
evening,
Mr
Mayor
good
evening,
Mr
President
good
evening,
distinguished
members
of
the
city
council
and
Commissioners
and
dedicated
city
employees.
Thank
you
so
much
for
the
opportunity
to
present
this
evening.
My
name
is
Jeff
Aggie
and
I'm.
The
founder
and
CEO
of
2043
SBC
and
the
city
of
Bloomington
project
is
the
only
project
that
I
personally
work
on.
So
it's
very
important
and
special
to
me
now
before
I
started.
P
My
own
business
in
2012
I
was
a
church
kid
who
grew
up
in
the
church,
and
we
had
this
interesting
concept
that
if
you
build
it,
they
will
come,
and
so
folks
just
built
bigger
churches,
but
unfortunately,
churches
got
emptier
and
emptier
next
year's
project
that
will
come
up
in
2024,
hopefully
in
the
fall,
is
an
amazing
project.
You've
heard
about
how
amazing
the
building
is
the
interior,
the
exterior,
but
it
only
matters
if
the
target
audience
that
we're
looking
for
views
it
as
their
home.
P
One
of
the
things
that
struck
me
in
my
first
opportunity,
with
working
with
the
city
is
I,
didn't
know
that
there
was
a
city
office
that
had
a
art.
Almost
a
museum,
really
a
museum:
has
anyone
ever
seen
a
city
building
that
has
a
museum
alrighty
for
the
record?
There
are
no
hands
up
at
this
moment.
P
Has
anyone
been
to
a
city
Hall
that
has
a
pond
that
has
a
Promenade
in
the
back
of
it?
One
person
we
have
one
person.
P
The
beauty
of
this
city
is
in
the
folks
who
work
with
it,
but
also
in
the
building
that
exists,
that
a
number
of
people
have
no
idea
that
exists.
I
didn't
know
it
existed
until
I
began
to
consult
with
the
city
of
Bloomington,
and
so
what
we'll?
What
you'll
see
here
is
more
than
just
the
concept
of.
If
you
build
it,
they
will
come.
It's
the
design,
thinking,
principles
that
we
have
to
build,
whatever
we're
building
with
our
end
users
in
mind,
and
so
before
we
even
have
a
building
before
we
even
have
a
space.
P
We
are
going
to
create
space
here
that
always
existed
and
that's
always
been
for
the
constituents.
That's
always
been
a
remarkable
place
that
people
want
to
be
we're
just
going
to
cultivate
it
even
more
for
the
small
business
Community
Mary
Busse
oftentimes
uses
a
the
analogy
of
a
garden,
and
you
know
if
we're
thinking
about
the
next
year's
project,
as
it
opens
being
a
tree,
that's
planted
or
the
Harvest.
P
What
we'll
be
doing
between
now
and
then
is
really
cultivating
that
ground
and
what
it
looks
like
is
bringing
stakeholders,
as
well
as
our
the
small
business
owners,
youth,
women,
bypoc
owners,
really
all
business
owners.
Really
when
we
say
those
terms
together,
they
just
mean
a
space
where
everyone
is
welcome.
We
are
going
to
start
doing
that
right
here,
at
the
plaza,
a
very
beautiful
place
that
folks
will
begin
to.
They
already
have
folks
already
have
a
relationship
with
the
city,
but
this
will
be
a
place
where
they
feel
like
it's
theirs.
P
So,
by
the
time
a
new
building
opens,
they
already
have
that
relationship
with
the
city
and
I'm,
not
saying
that
they
don't
have
that
relationship
yet.
But
one
thing
that
struck
us
was
during
our
engagement
with
the
community
is
a
former
business
owner
here.
He's
owned
a
business
for
the
last
30
years
and
he
said
prior
to
this
committee,
I
had
an
adversarial
relationship
with
the
city.
It's
felt
like
the
small
business
Community
had
an
adversary.
He
said
you
know.
This
experience
has
completely
changed
my
view
and
how
I
view
the
city.
P
Sometimes
perception
is
reality,
and
what
we'll
be
doing
here
is
not
only
changing
perception,
but
creating
value
for
people
so
coming
to
the
city
will
be
a
value.
Add
that
they
see
so
as
we
we
transition
of
folks
over
to
the
Small
Business
Development
Center
they'll
have
that
same
experience
that
they
have
right
here
at
City,
Hall,
and
so
here
are
a
couple
of
things
that
we'll
be
doing
between
now
and
the
winter
next
slide,
I'm,
not
sure,
if
still
seeing
it.
P
P
They
can
connect
with
the
folks
who
work
hard
every
day
to
make
this
city
what
it
is,
and
in
doing
so
it
will
continue
to
kick
off
for
next
year.
What
will
be
the
continuous
process
of
bringing
Community
into
space
But
even
before
we
get
into
that
Venture
night?
That
brings
stakeholders
together,
so
you
might
think
about
a
partner
who
might
be
a
sponsor,
you
might
think
about
a
partner
who
might
be
bringing
services
and
as
well
as
the
people
who
are
receiving
their
services
before
them.
P
We
want
to
have
workshops
right
here
at
the
black
box
theater,
the
black
box.
Theater
is
a
wonderful
resource,
I'm
the
kind
of
person
who
truly
believes
that
the
city
of
Bloomington,
In
general,
is
an
underutilized
resource
that
people
don't
see,
but
especially
the
Black
Box,
using
the
black
box
to
have
seminars
so
as
we're
thinking
about
youth,
women-owned
businesses,
bypoc
businesses
to
begin
to
have
seminars
there
in
September
in
August
and
September,
so
folks
are
actually
receiving
training.
P
One
of
the
benefits
of
where
working
with
2043
and
working
with
the
folks
at
the
Small
Business
Center,
that's
coming
up
and
working
with
Community
Development
is
as
we're
bringing
all
those
Partners
together.
We
have
the
best
of
the
best
people
that
will
be
willing
to
do
seminars
for
the
kind
of
entrepreneurs
and
the
kind
of
small
businesses
that
we're
looking
for
for
free.
P
So
these
are
seminars
that
could
be
up
to
fifteen
hundred
dollars
that
they
would
have
to
pay
for,
but
there
would
be
no
tuition
because
it's
being
done
here
in
partnership
with
the
city,
so
folks
are
immediately
getting
that
kind
of
value,
so
they're
getting
that
kind
of
value,
they're
getting
that
kind
of
training
which
will
lead
up
into
our
big
Venture
night
at
the
plaza
alrighty.
So,
lastly,
when
we
build
it,
they
will
come
because
they've
already
been
coming.
All
we're
doing
is
changing
an
address.
Thank
you.
E
F
We're
at
the
point
right
now
we're
the
construction
documents
were
at
60,
and
so
we
have
applied
for
a
building
permit,
so
we're
working
through
the
process
so
that
we
can
do
City
approvals
as
we're
still
building
it
out.
So
that
will
cut
down
on
the
change
orders
once
we're
actually
under
construction,
so
we're
working
on
those
construction
documents
right
now.
F
We
expect
to
be
at
90
percent
on
August
24th
and
go
out
to
bid
for
a
general
contractor
in
end
of
September,
beginning
of
October
kind
of
looking
at
the
time
frame
that
we're
going
to
start
building
in
the
spring.
We've
talked
this
through.
We
could
probably
start
earlier,
but
there's
no
sense.
The
construction
timeline
is
six
months,
and
so
there's
no
sense
in
starting
yet
this
winter,
so
we'd
do
that
in
the
spring
and
then
our
opening
would
be
late
2024.
F
As
many
of
you
know,
we
have
a
number
of
Grant
funds
that
we
have
to
use
by
the
end
of
2024.
so
talking
to
purchasing
and
also
to
our
Public
Works
folks
that
that
timeline
works
good
to
get
on
the
docket
of
general
contractors.
For
first
thing.
In
the
spring,
so
getting
that
out
in
October.
E
All
right,
so
the
next
slide
is
our
money.
Slide.
Barb's
been
excellent
at
going
out
and
getting
funds,
particularly
from
Hennepin
County.
We
did
I,
don't
want
to
say,
shake
down
the
HRA
for
half
a
million
dollars,
but
we
will
be
coming
to
the
port
Holly's
aware
that
you
know
she
might
have
some
unspent
funds,
and
so
you'll
be
looking
for
that
we
did
have
a
million
dollar
Congressional
direct,
directed
spending
request.
We
did
get
an
email
today
that
we
are
not
going
to
be
funded.
E
We
have
put
this
on
our
tell
me
Mike
again,
no
priority
for
bonding
2024
bonding
requests
from
the
state
legislature.
Yes,
the
other
thing
that,
because
we're
really
I
don't
want
to
say
shaking
people
down
but
Lori
economy,
scholler
I
said
you
know
U.S
Bank,
like
that's,
they
hold
a
lot
of
money,
and
so
I
said
that
who's
our
relationship
person,
so
Lori
sent
an
email
introduced
me.
E
We
have
put
out
requests
that
we
would
like
our
financial
institution
to
help
support
this
as
a
grant,
and
so
we
have
a
couple.
Other
I,
don't
want
to
say
Tricks
Up
Our
Sleeve,
but
we
have
some
other
venues
that
we're
going
to
be
pursuing,
but
just
want
to
let
you
know
I
think
we
raised
two
and
a
half
two
million
some
give
her
one.
E
As
well
so
we'll
be
looking
to
the
port,
Mr,
President
and-
and
anybody
who
has
some
suggestions
but
I'm,
pretty
confident
we're
gonna
be
all
right
and
our
final
slide,
oh,
the
one
thing
I
thought
Barb,
maybe
you
could
touch
on,
is
a
relationship
with
public
works
and
how
other
City
departments
have
stepped
up
and
said:
hey.
We
have
a
road
construction
project.
E
F
Right
so
working
with
Darren
resak
in
in
public
works,
there's
an
86th
Street
overlay
happening
this
summer,
and
so,
as
part
of
that
work,
some
of
the
upgrades
that
we
need
to
the
Small
Business
Center
to
House
people.
Some
of
that
work
is
being
paid
for
through
this
project
up
to
the
building.
F
So
that's
saving
us
some
cost
there,
also
keeping
in
in
close
contact
because,
as
you
may
or
may
not
have
been
over
there
here
recently,
there
is
work
happening
right
now
by
utilities
and
that
is
Center
Point,
so
being
in
close
contact
with
Public
Works
who's
in
contact
with
Centerpoint.
To
make
sure
that
that
project
is
accomplished
in
front
of
the
fire
station
by
Friday
this
week
in
preparation
of
our
open
house,
there's
that
and
then
also
working
with
Public
Works
Deb
William.
She
works
on
some
of
our
larger
projects.
F
She's
been
working
on
the
fire
stations
on
the
construction
of
that
and
having
them
as
a
partner
when
we
started
getting
down
to
more
of
the
nitty-gritty
on
the
construction,
and
so
her
and
her
team
have
a
process.
So
when
we
do
the
invoices
for
the
billing,
they
have
a
whole
process
and
how
we
move
this
forward,
so
they'll
be
stepping
up
to
take
the
lead,
also
our
building
and
inspections
department
working
with
a
general
contractor.
We
can
have
our
inspectors
out
there
more
often
to
have
eyes
on
the
project
as
well.
So.
E
F
Yeah
thinking
thinking
outside
of
the
box
a
little
bit
and
and
working
obviously
with
our
Architects
on
our
parking
and
what
that
looks
like
and
how
we
can
avoid
a
variance
to
avoid
timeline
delay,
also
working
with
aeon
as
our
partner
with
bloomy
Meadows
and
working
on
a
shared
parking
agreement.
F
They've
been
extremely
agreeable
to
work
with
and
really
want
this
to
be
a
successful
project,
as
as
Carla
has
said
many
times
before,
at
Blooming
Meadows.
We
have
built-in
clients
there
and
a
lot
of
them
over
400
and
the
people
that
attended
the
workshop.
They
were
neighbors
that
were
in
close
vicinity
and
extremely
interested
in
this
project
and
very
excited
and
want
to
open
tomorrow
as
well.
So
I
I.
A
Well,
thank
you.
That's
a
a
comprehensive
look
in
a
lot
of
detail.
That
I
think
is
it's
interesting
and
it's
very
exciting
also
to
look
at
the
the
thought
that
went
into
it
and
the
the
possibilities
around
how
the
building
will
look
will
act
will
feel
will
welcome
people.
It's
it's
very
exciting,
to
hear
so
well
done
on.
All
of
that
and
Mr
President.
B
What
I'm
excited
about
I
think
it's
another
front
door
for
Bloomington
and
what
you're
trying
to
do
is
to
say
to
a
lot
of
people
that
may
be
intimidated
by
coming
into
this
building
that
this
is
going
to
be
a
very
user-friendly
space
that
will
get
the
man
and
have
services
and
things.
So
you
know,
particularly
if
you're
starting
a
business
or
something
you're
looking
for
any
help
you
can
get
and
stuff
so
I
think
that's
that's
going
to
be
very
good.
So
we
have
Port
Authority
questions
or
Council.
L
F
E
E
You
Barb
we'll
be
paying
into
that
fund
and
it
will
be
maintained
by
City
staff
and
they
have
been
at
all
of
our
just
about
all
of
our
meetings.
The
facilities
team
weighing
in
on
the
skylights
and
so
forth,
and
you
know
asking
all
the
questions
about
maintenance
and
and
all
of
that
so
they're
so
part
of
us.
So.
L
A
You
very
much
thank
you
so
much
and
look
forward
to
hearing
from
you
again
in
six
months
as
we
get
to
some
next
Milestones
on
all
this.
So
thanks.
A
Next
on
our
agenda
are
item
three:
it's
our
hearings,
resolutions
and
ordinances
and
somewhat
different
for
a
Port
Authority
meeting.
We
actually
have
public
hearings,
we
I
know
we've
had
them
in
the
past,
but
we
don't
have
them
very
often
at
the
Port
Authority.
So
we
have
a
couple
of
public
hearings
that
we're
going
to
get
to,
but
we'll
start
with
item
3.1-
and
this
is
a
resolution
authorizing
an
application
to
livable
communities,
demonstration
account,
Transit
oriented
development,
Grant.
A
A
Q
Q
R
Yeah:
okay,
thanks:
let's
see
it
yep
my
mic
says
yeah!
Thank
you!
Mr
Mayor,
Mr
President!
This
is
actually
not
a
public
hearing.
This
is
a
little
different
than
we
usually
do
it.
But
this
first
item
here
is
will
be
a
resolution
to
submit
and
support
a
Grant
application
to
our
lcda.
Our
livable
communities,
development
account
Grant
Transit,
oriented
development,
there's
kind
of
two
different
grants
that
the
Met
Council
puts
out.
R
So
most
the
council
should
be
familiar
with
this
project.
They
just
approved
it
last
week
for
their
entitlements,
but
for
the
sake
of
the
Port
Authority
commission,
that's
here
today,
1801
American
is
the
next
phase
in
our
Pan-American
District.
You
can
see
we
have
the
district
departments
that
opened.
This
is
kind
of
the
continuation
of
that
and
was
just
approved
for
entitlements,
just
south
of
South
Town
here
off
in
Knox
American,
it's
off
of
the
Orange
Line
bus,
Rapid,
Transit
line
there.
R
So
you
can
see
those
kind
of
star
icons
or
the
station-
it's
literally
adjacent
to
the
station.
So
that's
why
they're
going
after
the
transit
oriented
development
Grant,
the
grant
you
know,
keep
this
short:
it's
supporting
density,
around
Transit
stations,
they're
trying
to
connect,
affordable
housing
and
other
economic
activity
to
the
transit
and,
obviously
being
next
door.
This
is
a
natural
fit
for
that,
they're,
also
supporting
sustainable
elements
or
some
kind
of
elevated
approach
to
the
development.
R
So
in
this
case
this
pro
project
will
likely
be
submitting
for
stormwater
improvements
and
enhanced
Landscaping
to
really
kind
of
tie
in
that
public
space.
That's
adjacent
to
the
station
area,
so
pretty
straightforward,
but
I
do
have
a
recommended
motion.
This
is
for
a
point
of
order.
This
is
just
the
city
council
that
would
be
approving
this,
the
Port
Authority.
Sorry,
maybe
next
time
we'll
have
you
improve,
but
under
our
considerations
we
thought
city
council
has
more
meetings
that
if
we
need
to
get
on
another
agenda
later
on
we're.
A
Counsel
any
questions
regarding
this:
this
one's
pretty
straightforward,
just
supporting
Steward
companies.
They
seek
the
Grant
from
the
Metropolitan
Council.
A
If
there
are
no
questions,
Council
I
would
look
for
a
motion
to
adopt
the
resolution
authorizing
application
and
authorizing
the
execution
of
a
grant
agreement
for
the
livable
communities,
demonstration
account
or
Transit
oriented
development
Grant.
So.
N
A
A
It's
okay,
very
good.
A
R
So
Mr
Mayor
Mr
President
council
members,
Port
Authority,
commission
members.
This
is
the
next
item
also
lcda
Grant
resolution,
but
we
thought
this
would
be
opportunity
to
talk
about
the
700
American
project
and
give
you
a
little
bit
of
an
update
a
little
bit
more
meteor
item.
Hopefully
not
too
many,
though
so
again,
refresher
on
where
700
American
is
it's
that
parcel
that
the
city
owns
near
REI,
that
vacant
space
there
right
next
to
Top,
Line
Credit
Union?
That
is
almost
done
with
construction.
Maybe
it's
open
soon.
R
City
owns
that
we
put
an
RFP
out
and
give
you
a
little
history
and
back
in
November
we
closed
that
RFP
and
Council
directed
us
to
enter
into
negotiations
with
Schaefer
Richardson
as
the
developer.
We
worked
quickly
to
kind
of
solidify
it
as
a
that
they
are
the
name
developer
to
do
lock
in
the
qualified
census
tract
because
they
would
be
seeking
low-income
housing,
tax
credits
and
it
was
going
to
lose
their
status.
R
So
we
were
able
to
lock
that
in
and
we
enter
into
pre-development
agreement
and
then
in
our
project
timeline
we're
in
that
kind
of
entitlement
process,
kind
of
refining
of
the
project
and
we'll
kind
of
go
into
some
of
the
details
that
have
changed
since
the
initial
RFP,
but
as
we
start
to
kind
of
refine
that
and
move
into
the
next
phase,
we're
looking
at
that
funding
aspect,
that
kind
of
critical
piece
right:
they're
going
for
the
low
income,
housing
tax
credits,
but
there's
still
a
gap
beyond
that
that
we
need
to
fill
so
the
original
project.
R
We
anticipated
153
units
with
500
5000
square
feet
of
commercial
space.
We
anticipated
that
they'll
apply
for
Tiff.
We
still
anticipate
that
applying
for
the
tax
credits
and
other
Grant
sources
and
reach
out
with
the
neighborhood.
In
that
refining
phase,
we
found
that
153
units
might
have
been
a
little
too
ambitious.
We
did
some
parking
studies.
We
were
hoping
that
REI
would
help
by
providing
some
space
that
we
can
maybe
purchase
for
parking,
knowing
that
that
is
the
biggest
constraint,
but
they
weren't
willing
to
negotiate
so
parking
needs
to
be
on
site.
R
Knowing
that
there
isn't
any
spill
over
into
a
neighborhood
where
Vehicles
can
go,
the
parking
study
showed
that
we
were
deficient.
We
actually
did
two
concepts,
knowing
that
it
would
be
a
constraint
kind
of
the
153
units
and
even
a
smaller
size
building
and
both
were
not
sufficient
enough.
We'd
have
to
build
a
second
story
of
structured
parking
and
then
cost
just
balloon,
and
the
Gap
is
makes
it
unfeasible.
R
So
Schaefer
has
done
a
new
plan
that
they're
working
on
that's
125
units.
It
would
be
senior
affordable.
Housing
which
is
identified
as
a
need
in
our
community
would
still
have
maintain
a
small
commercial
space
that
would
support
that
as
well.
They
believe
they
can
accommodate
the
parking
that's
needed
for
that
staff
is
comfortable
with
this
change,
because
looking
at
other
developments
that
have
happened
in
the
area,
it's
still
sizable.
It's
still
probably
the
densest
that
we've
seen
in
that
area.
In
recent
years.
R
R
People
would
like
to
move
out
of
their
single
family
home,
but
just
there
isn't
an
affordable
option
for
them
to
move,
and
this
gives
another
opportunity
for
that
kind
of
creating
that
backfill,
where
people
can
move
in
the
market
and
move
into
the
single
family
home,
that's
otherwise
occupied
by
someone
who
maybe
would
rather
move
somewhere
else
in
talking
with
met
Council
about
this.
They
think
it's
it
meets
their
Equity
goals
as
well,
because
senior
is
kind
of
one
they're
needed
in
the
region.
R
Similar
goals,
the
lcda.
This
is
not
competing
with
the
other
one.
The
other
one
is
the
Tod,
the
transit
oriented
development.
R
This
is
a
different
program,
so
we're
making
sure
we're
not
competing
with
ourselves
on
these
grants,
but
again
they
would
be
looking
at
doing
things
with
sustainability,
storm
water,
creating
that
kind
of
public
feel
with
enhanced
Landscaping,
similar
aspects
to
try
and
make
it
a
better
project
and,
of
course,
the
affordable
units
would
be
in
there
as
well,
and
so
this
really
kind
of
fills
the
Gap
that
we
anticipate
as
we
move
forward
in
the
project
and
have
any
questions
Schaefer
might
be
on
the
phone
they
might
not.
R
They
actually
ended
up
having
another
public
mean
that
they
needed
to
attend
as
well
so
they're
trying
to
juggle
both
meetings,
but
I
can
make
a
first
attempt
if
you
have
any
questions.
Otherwise,
you
know
knowing
that
this
is
a
little
bit
different
than
the
RFP.
This
would
be
kind
of
showing
your
support
for
the
grand
application
and
the
project
moving
forward
as
well.
C
So
one
of
the
questions
that
came
to
mind
when
I
when
you
were
talking
was
around
the
kind
of
affordability
component,
and
could
you
refresh
my
memory
if,
if
I'm
a
senior
who's
on
a
fixed
income,
but
I
have
some
Equity
built
up
in
my
house?
How
does
how
does
the
affordability
calculation
work
in
that
situation
versus
the
situation?
Where,
maybe
you
know
somebody
is
working,
but
maybe
maybe
is
renting
or
something
like
that
I
just
I
was
trying
to
remember
how
that
worked.
R
That
is
a
little
bit
different,
trying
to
remember
now
with
how
your
assets
are
calculated
versus
because
yeah,
if
you
do,
you.
C
R
Jason,
do
you
my
colleague,
Jason
Schmidt,
helped
me
here.
J
We
definitely
will
get
back
to
you
on
this
just
to
confirm,
but
when
we
did
take
a
look
at
this
on
a
previous
development,
we're
informed
that
it
it's
basically
their
income,
what
their,
what
their
W-2
and
what
their
tax
returns
State
as
far
as
their
annual
income
in
determination
for
the
affordability
and
so
sometimes,
depending
on
how
fast
their
assets
could
be
depleted
I
mean
on
other
expenses
that
individuals
may
have
the
program
most
likely
just
focuses
on
what
their
annual
income
is.
Okay,.
Q
Q
Thanks
and
specifically
to
commissioner
Peterson's
question
I
assume
that
a
reverse
mortgage
counts
as
income,
but
can
you
add
that
to
the
things
you
just
check
on
to
make
sure
we
figure
that
out?
Thank
you
very
much.
R
Mr
Mayor
councilmember
yeah,
it
is
very,
it
is
very
different.
I
think
what
working
closely
with
the
developer,
Schaefer,
Richardson
I,
think
the
end
product
here
is
what
we
would
have
seen
from
any
developer.
Knowing
we
had
this
ambition
with
the
RFP,
and
that
is
why
we
selected
them.
It
was
an
iterative
process.
They
did
the
parking
study.
R
They
worked
with
REI,
they
kind
of
showed
us
the
steps
along
the
way
that
showed
that
you
know
any
other
project
at
153
units
probably
is
not
going
to
work
here
without
some
sort
of
reduction
and
just
knowing
the
steps
that
they've
done.
This
is
kind
of
where
they've
landed
and
just
I
think
that's
where
staff
was
comfortable,
that
they
showed
us
that
they
were
making
their
effort.
They
were
making
those
attempts.
They
documented
those
study,
this
parking
study
and
working
with
our
planning
department.
This
is
kind
of
where
it
ended
up.
R
Otherwise,
we're
looking
at
putting
another
RFP
out
and
what's
going
to
happen
is
probably
125.
Units
senior
will
be
the
most
viable
option
that
we
can
get
out
of
that,
knowing
that
they
made
that
attempt
and
kind
of
landed
here.
So
that's
even
at
125
units
is
probably
from
what
we're
hearing
is
probably
still
ambitious
and
it
will
be
a
four
story
unit
building
with
underground
parking.
So
it's
it
will
be
a
substantial
development,
just
maybe
not
as
substantial
as
we
initially
thought.
N
Councilmember
Lowman.
Thank
you
mayor.
You
know
you
had
a
slide
earlier,
because
I
was
thinking
the
the
very
thing
that
my
colleague
was
thinking.
N
You
know
and
then
I
thought
about
the
history
of
the
slot
and
how
long
it
has
been
around
the
around
the
bend
here
and
so
I
wonder
if
you
could
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
that
history,
because
there's
some
of
us
who
haven't
had
that
opportunity
to
to
see
that
and
then
the
other
thing
that
I
wanted
you
to
mention
after
you're
done
doing
that
is
you'd
mentioned
there
might
be
a
need
for
additional
help
to
kind
of
get
this
over
the
over
the
the
line
here
to
get
to
get
her
done.
R
Yep
Mr
Mayor,
councilmember,
Lowman,
so
you're
right,
it
does
have
a
kind
of
storied
past.
This
parcel
is
created
because
of
American
Boulevard.
The
widening
of
American
Boulevard
created
700
and
900
American
were
Top
Line
Credit
Union
is
it
was
originally
sold
to
frown,
shoe
developer
and
then
they
sold
900
to
Top
Line
and
they
were
going
to
develop
700
into
I.
Believe
it
was
a
30
or
40
000
square
foot
office,
medical
dental
office
that
did
not
move
forward.
They
ended
up
selling
it
back
to
the
city.
R
So
then
we
did
an
RFP,
it's
a
2000
I'm
blanking
on
the
2007
and
at
that
time.
R
That
was
the
office
development.
It
was
2007.,
so
2012
was
another
RFP
and
after
working
on
that
for
several
years,
HyVee
came
along
but
again
similar
situation.
They
promised
more
because
development
got
smaller
and
smaller
until
eventually
they
didn't
think
it
was
feasible
either.
So
this
it
does
seem
to
be
a
theme
with
this
site
where
we
come
in
with
grand
Ambitions
and
gets
a
little
bit
smaller
and
smaller
until
it
doesn't
come
to
fruition.
R
So
this
is
now
our
kind
of
third
attempt
at
this,
and
hopefully
we
are
able
to
overcome
the
gaps
so
hopefully
the
last
right,
so
they
are
pursuing
low
income,
housing
tax
credits,
so
there
are
some
hurdles
still
they
do
need
to
get
awarded
that
that
is
competitive.
That
will
be
in
January
when
they
would
apply
for
that.
This
grant
helps
fill
that
camp
Gap
too.
So
if
they
don't
get
this
grant,
then
there's
other.
R
They
do
have
other
grants
that
they
are
pursuing,
that
they
are
aware
of
that
are
kind
of
backup
options,
but
they're
hoping
for
this
grant
to
kind
of
give
that
kind
of
solid
moving
forward,
because
when
this
is
awarded,
then
it
kind
of
leads
into
that
low-income
housing,
tax,
credit
and
kind
of
gives
you
a
better.
R
You
know
if
you're
funded
a
better
application
for
the
that
credit
process,
and
then
there
is
again
that
Tiff
ass,
that
would
likely
happen
and
we'll
kind
of
analyze
what
that
Gap
is
and
determine
what
is
sufficient
to
fill
that
if
that
is
possible.
B
Council
member
Lowman
anticipated
my
question
because
I
I've
remembered
we've
talked
about
this
for
a
long
time
and
so
I
think
I
think
clearly,
there's
been
a
lot
of
chances
for
the
highest
and
best
use
to
emerge,
and
this
seems
to
be
what
has
emerged
and
it's
still
a
pretty
good
project.
I
mean
that's
a
lot
of
density
and
and
again
senior
housing
and
things
so
I
I
think
it's
something
we
should
be
happy
to
have
happening.
No.
L
These
are
independent
senior
for
independent,
seniors,
okay
and
then
where's
the
access
is
it
where's,
the
curb
cut
at?
Is
it
it's
further
west
and
off
North
and
then
back
around?
Yes,.
R
So
Mr
Mayor
president
Erickson,
commissioner
Lunds
still
just
the
main
access
off
of
American
Boulevard.
Here
there
is,
that
is
where
their
easement
is
with
REI.
There
is
no
easement
access
off
of
Lyndale.
R
Yeah
Mr
Mayor
president
Erickson
Mr
lines
you
can
see
it
is
pretty
built
up,
it
is
pretty
Auto
oriented,
but
at
the
same
time
there
there
are
wider
sidewalks
on
American
Boulevard.
So
it
is,
you
know,
safe
and
well
kept
to
get
you
to
kind
of
that
Pan
American
District,
which
is
just
outside
a
half
mile.
R
They
are
very
close
to
being
in
that
Tod.
Zone
I
think
it's
like
right
at
the
Top
Line,
where
it
kind
of
cuts
off.
So
there
are
some
amenities
in
the
area.
It's
it's
not
perfect.
I'll
I'll,
be
it
it's
not
next
to
a
park
right
adjacent
to
it,
but
there
is
not
too
far
about
a
half
mile
in
all
directions
is
kind
of
where
things
are.
A
And
actually,
commissioner
Lunds
anticipated
my
question
because
I
was
going
to
ask
also
about
walkability,
considering
the
change
in
population,
that's
going
to
be
living
there,
and
and
actually
you
might
have
as
well,
because
I
was
also
thinking
in
terms
of
Transit
oriented.
If
it
is,
we
can
Envision
a
scenario
where
low
income
seniors
might
need
direct
access
to
Transit
and
I
know.
We
do
have
buses
running
up
and
down
Lindale.
A
R
Mr
Mayor-
that
is
a
great
Point
too.
There
is
a
Transit
stop
right
here
that
feeds
directly
into
the
orange
line.
That's
kind
of
Med
Council
has
done
a
good
job
of
making
sure
that
they
have
these
feeder
lines
that
are
kind
of.
We
have
a
North
high
quality
north
south
and
making
sure
that
East-West
can
connect
to
it
real
easily.
So
it
is
a.
It
is
high
frequency
that
goes
there.
So.
D
Coming
out
of
that
site-
and
it's
been
a
while
since
I've
done
that
but
coming
out
of
REI
and
that
site
and
going
east
is
horrendous
at
times
you
know
you're,
ideally
you're
not
going
to
put
another
stoplight
there,
just
because
of
the
proximity
to
to
Lindale.
But
what
does
that
do
in
the
traffic
studies
for
that
volume
of
of
residential
coming
in
there?
Along
with
you
know,
hockey
and
REI?
And
it's
it's
a
congested
area
already
yep.
R
Mr
Mayor
president
Erickson,
commissioner
hunt,
you
are
correct
it.
It
will
add
some
traffic.
The
good
news
is
residential
tends
to
have
a
little
bit
different
peak
hours
than
retail
traffic.
Does
so
it'll
be
a
little
bit
different.
There
is
opportunity
at
some
point,
potentially
to
add
an
access
off
a
Lyndale
that
could
address
some
of
that
left.
Turning,
so
you
can
turn
right
and
then
you'll
have
a
signalized
intersection
there
to
get
you
to
that
left.
Q
I,
thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
I.
What
what?
What
is
the
net
benefit
to
the
project
to
going
from
125
units
period
to
125
senior
units
like
what
does
that
do
is
there?
Are
there
grants
that
they
can
apply
for
that
they
otherwise?
Wouldn't
because
I
would
think
that
you
might
need
to
increase
your
accessibility
requirements
here
because
of
of
Senior
Living
I
mean
what
what's
the
trade-offs
there.
Can
you
help
us
out
with
that?
Thanks.
R
Mr
Mayor
president
Erickson
councilman
D'alessandro,
the
benefits
are
one:
it's
a
it's
a
built-in
Market.
You
know
a
high
need
right
that
seniors.
We
know
booming
population
or
mean
that
car
dependency
is
a
little
bit
different
because
at
some
point
you
do
get
to
an
age
where
you're
driving
less
so
the
need
for
parking
is
less
than
just
what
we
were
originally
proposing
part
of
the
issue
with
what
we
were
originally
proposing.
We
had
large
units
which
were
driving
a
higher
parking
count.
R
Q
That's
helpful
thanks
real
quick
follow-up
if
I
may
Mr
Mayor,
so
are
they
coming
back
with
development
plans
that
do
have
consideration
for
a
higher
requirement
for
accessibility,
I
would
assume
also,
for
example,
kind
of
to
the
point
of
commissioner
hunt
with
the
transit
you'd
want
to
have
a
larger
space
for
like
the
Metro
Transit,
you
know
Mobility
access
buses
and
all
that
kind
of
stuff.
Can
you
explain
a
little
bit
about
the
thoughts
there
and
if
you
can't
I
get
it
the
developer's,
not
here
that
might.
R
Yeah
they're
working
on
their
fit
plan,
I
haven't
seen
it
yet,
but
I
think
they're
very
close
on
that
they,
they
kind
of,
have
to
have
something
ready
for
this
grant
so,
but
that
will
be
a
consideration
working
with
our
planning
department.
R
That
is
something
we're
always
looking
at
and
pushing
developers
forward
to
have
that
connection
to
have
those
considerations,
but
I
I
think
they've
they're,
very
cognizant
that
you
need
those
pickup
and
drop-off
areas,
and
you
need
to
be
able
to
have
those
connections
in
spaces
for
people
on
site
to
just
congregate
and
be
outside
because
they
might
not
be
able
to
go.
Just
senior
in
general
might
not
be
able
to
walk
a
long
distance
to
get
to
a
park.
So
having
that
on
site
is
something
will
be
pushing
yeah
right.
Q
R
You
know
that
could
be
a
potential.
I
know
met
Council
or
Metro
Transit.
They
do
have
some
standards
around
that
that
gets
into
some
Equity
issues
that
they've
got
in
trouble
in
the
past.
But
when
you
do
privately
initiated
enhancements,
then
the
areas
were
more
fluent
tend
to
have
a
lot
of
that
and
then
not
not
so
it
there's
some
rules
and
guidelines
that
they
have
in
place,
but
I
think
that's
something
we
could
approach
Metro
Transit
about
yeah.
A
Q
S
A
J
Good
evening,
Mr
President,
Mr,
Mayor,
a
city
council
and
Commissioners
tonight
before
you
is
an
item
that
was
on
the
city's
legislative
policy.
This
year,
the
city
worked
with
McGuff
properties
to
extend
the
five-year
Tiff
rule
by
an
additional
five
years,
as
well
as
to
extend
the
duration
limit
of
the
Bloomington
Central
Station
TIF
district.
Another
five
years
out
to
December
31st
of
2044.
J
The
Five-Year
rule
allows
requires
development
activity
for
a
TIF
district
to
be
finished
within
that
five-year
period.
And.
So
because
it's
a
multi-phase
project,
this
is
very
difficult
to
always
have
all
those
multiple
phases
complete
within
five
years,
so
any
District
that
is
multi-phase
usually
goes
to
the
state
legislature
requesting
this
five-year
deal.
In
addition,
the
extension
of
the
Tiff
district
is
the
ability
to
collect
increment
for
Tiff
eligible
expenses
within
that
time
period
and
that
extension
was
for
five
years,
which
was
part
of
the
city
policy
this
year.
J
The
requested
action
tonight
just
approves
this
legislative
extension
of
the
BCF
test
District.
It
does
not
approve
any
future
financial
assistance
towards
any
projects.
Any
financial
assistance
for
future
projects
would
need
to
be
analyzed
by
staff
and
then
presented
before
the
board
for
action
and
approval
by
you.
A
I
saw
I'll
just
ask
the
question:
I
saw
the
the
schematic
that
you
just
had
up
there.
The
specially
the
letter
I
down
at
the
bottom
of
the
future
office
are
there?
Are
there
any?
Is
there
anything
in
the
hopper
or
is
there
there's
just
a
lot
of
possibilities
floating
about
is
what
I
understand
is
that
correct.
J
Mr
President
correct:
we
are
currently
in
Congress
I'm,
sorry.
J
J
Initially,
the
future
office
is
just
right
now
in
their
PDP
planning,
with
zoning
and
entitlement
they
are
in
negotiations
out
there.
It
comes
down
to
the
market.
We
would
love
to
see
something
happen
there
and
if
it
comes
to
fruition,
we
will
be
before
this
board
presenting
that
absolutely
great.
Thank
you.
I.
B
Just
would
like
to
make
a
historical
comment:
I
mean
30
years
ago,
or
maybe
more
when
we
started
looking
at
this.
If
we
could
look
at
what's
actually
happened
there
and
would
have
known
that
at
the
time
we
would
have
probably
said
we're
very,
very
happy
with
what
has
happened,
because
this
has
been
a
tremendous
amount
of
development
and
the
housing
and
everything
else
and
McGuff
has
really
been
a
very
patient
developer
working
with
us.
So
it's
something
that
I'm
delighted.
A
I'm
gonna
agree
more
Mr
President
every
time.
I
am
out
there
with
people
who
have
not
been
there
or
have
not
been
there
in
a
while
they're,
absolutely
stunned
at
the
development,
and
they
had
no
idea
that
it
even
exists
out
there.
So
it's
a
well-kept
secret
Council.
Any
questions
report
to
any
questions.
I
A
A
B
P
B
A
J
Mr
Mayor
members
of
council,
Mr,
President
Commissioners
I,
am
here
before
you
to
discuss
and
hopefully
recommend
for
approval
the
agreements
to
start
the
process
for
phase
two
for
sick.
A
number
of
these
agreements
phase
two
agreements
that
we
have
before
you
tonight
is
the
First
Amendment
to
the
development
agreement.
We
have
a
phase
two
business
subsidy
agreement,
a
structured
parking
lease
agreement
and
then
a
sale
and
transfer
of
parcels.
A
number
of
these
items
have
all
the
process
was
started
back
in
2019.
J
Back
when
the
city
council
and
the
Port
Authority
considered
action
directing
staff
to
start
looking
at
the
feasibility
of
drafting
these
agreements
in
2020
October
of
2020,
the
city
council
in
a
port
authority
did
approve
the
development
agreements
and
purchase
agreement
and
ancillary
agreements
to
move
forward
with
all
of
the
phases
for
sick
kind
of
entering.
In
that
motion
and
with
which,
in
August
of
2022
phase,
one
did
open.
That's
their
Logistics
and
production
facility
out
within
the
South
Loop
area.
J
So
just
to
give
a
quick
summary
of
what
that
executed.
Development
agreement
did
just
as
far
as
setting
up
this
phase
two
within
the
development
agreement.
The
city
is
to
sell
sick,
the
Northeast
and
Southeast
and
Northwest
Parcels.
So
three
different
Parcels
there
for
their
phases.
The
port
and
city
is
planning
to
build
a
parking
ramp,
as
well
as
there's
an
adjustment
to
the
land
cost.
J
The
city
is
going
to
convey
to
the
port
the
Southwest
parcel
to
to
construct
that
parking
ramp,
and
then
the
the
city
and
Port
Authority
committed
to
Public
Funding
for
this
project
and
that
funding
was
divided
up
between
each
phases
and
I'll
go
get
into
that
a
little
bit
later
in
this
presentation,
the
purchase
price
of
the
development
to
sick
is
was
at
a
conglomerate
of
five
million
dollars.
However,
that
was
prorated
per
each
parcel
size
as
well
as
there
was
a
reduction,
a
10
adjustment.
J
J
J
So,
just
quickly
on
the
four
phases
just
to
kind
of
hit
on
the
summary.
So
as
stated
they're
single
story,
production
and
Logistics
did
open
in
2022
tonight
before
you
they're,
looking
to
start
their
entitlement
process
for
their
headquarters,
their
office
building,
which
will
be
on
just
south
of
the
logistics
space
phase.
Three
they're
projected
out
to
2029,
which
would
be
an
addition
to
their
production
and
Logistics
facility
and
then
phase
four
would
be
an
addition.
A
second
phase
of
the
office
building,
as
well
as
additional
production.
J
It's
kind
of
a
history
of
the
site
of
where
it's
located
the
city
city
council,
as
well
as
the
Port
Authority,
entertain.
They
purchase
the
interstate
and
the
former
Alpha
5
parcels
and
with
that
has
create
basically,
we
demoed
those
sites
and
created
a
buildables
ready
site
phase.
J
One
is
currently
constructed
and
open
on
that
parcel
on
the
North
East
parcel
phase
two,
as
we
are
talking
about
today,
so
just
to
the
South,
is
the
projected
office
complex
and
the
phase
two,
where
it's
slated
here
on
the
western
part,
so
the
left
hand
parcel
if
you're
looking
at
the
screen.
That
is
where
the
structured
parking
ramp
would
be
built.
J
Phase
three
is
that
addition
to
the
logistics
place,
that's
just
to
the
north
there
and
then
phase
four
would
be
an
extension
on
an
additional
parcel,
as
well
as
an
extension
of
their
office
complex
on
the
south
and
if
warranted
and
needed,
we
would
do
a
parking
study.
An
expansion
of
the
parking
ramp.
J
So
talking
about
the
parcels
again,
so
there's
the
Northeast
lot,
which
is
lot
one
and
that's
where
the
current
facility
is
located
that
was
opened
in
2022,
the
southeast
lot
or
Lot
4.
That
is
the
parcel
which,
where
the
office
complex
would
be
built
and
where
sick
would
be
looking
to
purchase
the
Southwest
lot
or
lot
3.
That
is
the
property
with
which
the
city
will
convey
to
the
Port
Authority
for
the
port
authority,
then
to
construct
the
parking
ramp,
and
so,
as
I
just
stated
lot.
J
Four
sick
has
exercised
that
option
based
on
their
purchase
agreement
and
they
would
like
to
go
ahead
and
purchase
that
lot
from
the
city,
but
that
sale
price
comes
out
to
just
over
1.2
million,
based
on
that
Pearl
rata
formula,
that
I
just
stated,
as
well
as
that
reduction
in
cost
and
just
to
let
you
know
back
in
October
of
2020,
the
city
council
did
approve
an
ordinance
to
convey
the
property
for
sale
on
this
phased
approach.
So
that's
why
there
is
no
ordinance
tonight.
J
It's
just
done
by
the
resolution
and
then
also
tonight,
the
city.
We
are
looking
for
the
city
to
convey
lot
three.
That's
the
Southwest
lot
to
the
Port
Authority,
with
which
then
the
Port
Authority
will
construct
the
structured
parking
on
that
parcel
for
the
phases
of
the
development.
J
Public
investment.
There
are
two
public
Investments
here
we
have
the
land
price
adjustment
which
I
had
stated
and
then
lastly,
the
structured
parking
that
capital
and
maintenance
fee.
So
right
now,
within
the
staff
report,
we
we
are
currently
working
the
arc
with
working
with
the
architect
on
the
design
of
that
structured
parking.
J
Preliminary
estimates
for
that
parking
ramp,
all
said
and
done
are
running
around
20
million
dollars,
and
so
with
that
funding
for
our
land,
price
adjustment
and
the
structured
parking
would
be
coming
from
three
sources:
the
Carlton
Tiff,
the
South
Loop
Development
Fund,
and
then
the
Mall
of
America,
administrative
and
Reserve
fund.
J
This
table
has
been
updated
as
far
as
kind
of
breaking
down
our
public
investment
summary.
So,
as
you
can
see,
roughly
right
now,
estimated
price
costs
of
20
million
for
the
structured
parking
land
write
down
right
around
2.1
million
dollars,
so
the
total
maximum
potential
Public
Public
Assistance
here
in
phase
two
would
be
about
right:
around
22
million
22.1
million-
all
in,
if
you
add
in
Phase
One
subsidy
we're
at
around
25.7
million
and
then
we
kind
of
have
a
breakdown
of
the
sources
of
where
that
funding
is
coming
from.
J
Like
I
stated
Carlton
Tiff,
we
will
be
using
the
remaining
amount
in
Carlton
Tiff.
That
is
a
tiff
District
that
is
close
and
we're
just
waiting
to
use
the
remaining
funds.
In
that
balance,
administrative
and
Reserve
fund
will
be
around
11
million
and
then
50
of
the
parking
ramp
will
be
paid
with
self-loop
development
funds.
J
So
wages
so
right
now,
phase
one
currently
has
198
employees
phase
two
existing
employees
or
current
employees
that
will
be
moving
over
to
phase
two
are
169
employees
with
a
projected
increase
of
75
plus
more
employees
on
there
so
right
around
247.
So
once
combined,
this
area
will
have
about
445
employees
once
phase
two
is
complete
and
open
average
wage
for
phase
two
is
right:
around
105
000
median
wage
right
around
94
000.,
so
well
above
the
175
percent
minimum
wage
requirement
within
our
business
subsidy
agreement.
J
So,
just
quick
outline
on
the
The
Four
Agreements,
with
which
we're
looking
for
consideration
tonight,
the
First
Amendment
to
the
development
agreement.
This
is
an
agreement
between
sick,
the
city
and
the
port.
What
this
agreement
is
doing
is
just
clarifying
A
couple
items
within
the
previously
approved
development
agreement.
One
of
those
is
amending
the
inflation
index
for
the
parking
ramp
before
we
were
using
the
MnDOT
Highway
construction
cost
index
coming
to
find
out
when
we
were
looking
for
it.
J
That
index
is
no
longer
used
and
so
working
with
our
Engineers
as
well
as
sick.
We
came
up
that
the
next
best
index
that
is
out
there
is
the
building
cost
index
as
it
relates
to
the
parking
ramp
and
then,
additionally,
we're
looking
to
amend
section
4.3.
This
is
just
the
time
period
with
which
sic
has
to
build
their
phase
two
project.
They
had
requested
that
we
extend
this
out
three
additional
months,
because
they
will
be
going
through
two
winter
periods
and
just
without
knowing
our
Winters.
J
We
wanted
to
add
in
that
little
buffer
and
security
for
them
the
business
subsidy
agreement.
This
agreement,
once
again,
is
between
all
three
parties.
Purpose
of
this
is
it
defines
the
job,
retention
and
creation
that
is
required
for
the
public
assessment
assistance
with
which
the
city
and
Port
Authority
would
be
considering
for
this
project.
J
As
I
stated,
it's
going
to
follow
that
public
investment
table
that
I
just
showed
you,
the
retention
and
creation
of
247
jobs
are
part
of
this
subsidy
agreement
and,
as
stated,
the
require
wage
goal
for
this
is
that
it
needs
to
be
at
least
175
percent
of
the
federal
minimum
wage
in
which
their
their
wages
are
well.
Above
that.
J
Another
agreement
that
we're
looking
at
for
consideration
tonight
is
the
structured
parking
lease
and
management
agreement.
This
agreement
is
just
between
sick
and
the
Port
Authority,
as
the
Port
Authority
will
be
the
one
owning
the
parking
ramp.
This
agreement
lays
out
that
the
Port
Authority
will
construct
it
and
that
sick
will
be
leasing
it
for
their
phase.
One
and
two,
while
also
utilizing
the
surface
parking
lot
on
the
northwest
parcel
key
points
in
this
agreement.
J
Kind
of
lay
out
the
hours
of
operation
that
sick
has
it
between
their
bit
between
four
use
exclusively
for
their
business
use
between
6
a.m
and
6
p.m.
Off
hours,
it
is
open
will
be
open
for
the
public
to
park
there.
J
In
addition,
we
will
be
looking
at
a
shared
maintenance
agreement.
This
agreement
will
be
coming
most
likely
at
the
September
meet
Port
Authority
meeting
for
that
for
consideration,
and
that
agreement
will
outline
that
maintenance,
taxes,
assessment
security
and
utility
costs
are
split,
50
between
sick
and
the
Port
Authority.
This
parking
leasing
management
agreement
does
lay
that
out.
It
does
reference.
J
J
So,
as
the
mayor
had
stated,
this
is
a
public
hearing
for
both
boards,
and
so
we
would
recommend
that
the
mayor
would
open
it
as
in
the
public
hearing.
This
president
would
open
the
public
hearing,
take
any
public
testimony
and
then
close
it
and
then,
with
that
I
do
have
two
motions
for
the
board.
After
that
happens,
but
before
opening
the
public
hearing,
I
am
available
for
any
questions.
A
Thank
you,
Mr
Schmidt
Council.
Any
questions
clarifying
questions
details
you
need
more
of
for
Mr
Schmidt
this
evening,
councilmember
Martin.
T
Thank
you
mayor,
so
I
know
for
many
developments
that
have
come
before
us,
especially
residential
over
and
South
Loop.
We
had
talked
about
convertibility
of
parking
structures
for
alternative
uses.
Assuming
I
don't
know,
self-driving
cars
are
taking
us
everywhere,
we
need
to
go.
Are
we
anticipating
this
parking
structure
would
be
capable
of
that?
At
some
point,
is
that
it
is
that,
if
it
is
at
all
Complicated
by
the
shared
use
with
sick,
okay.
J
Mr
Mayor
Mr
President,
councilmember
Martin,
this
ramp
will
not
be
converted.
Convertible
and
I
think.
The
intention
of
that
is
that
we're
trying
to
build
as
least
amount
of
parking
as
possible
for
the
facility
and
also
to
allow
for
shared
parking
for
future
uses.
So
if,
if
at
that
point
parking
demands
do
decrease,
we
would
then
have
availability
Elsewhere
on
the
lot
to
build
another
development
with
which
then
they
would
be
able
to
share
that
parking
ramp.
B
Jason
with
respect
to
that,
I
would
think
that
if
the
ramp
was
constructed
so
that
it
was
level
in
a
sense
instead
of
having
slopes
that
you
do
have
a
lot
more
ability
to
take
in
use
it
for
something
else,
I
mean
floors
or
whatever
so
I,
don't
know
what
what
the
particular
type
of
construction,
but
it's
something
that
I
certainly
would
would
look
at
just
it.
You
would
have
an
option
maybe
to
convert
a
floor
or
two
floors
or
whatever
the
other
thing.
I
just
wanted
to
do
really
for
a
new
console
person.
B
But
we
said
this
is
too
important
an
area
to
just
take
and
let
whatever
is
going
to
happen
happen,
and
so
it
was
through
a
very
iterative
process
and
it
was
also
a
process
that
I
think
because
of
the
Port
Authority
and
Tim
Keller
was
on
it
for
years
in
terms
of
participating
in
our
what
was
our
body,
the
the
the
Federal
Trade
Zone
that
they
found
out
about
this
and
then
actively
pursued
it,
and
so
I
mean
I.
Think
it's
just.
B
Q
Q
Nelson
yeah
no
worry,
thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
I,
don't
know
if
this
is
a
question
you
can
answer
at
this
point,
but
I'm
just
I
I
am
at
a
point
in,
in
my
view,
on
these
things,
as
we
get
closer
and
closer
to
2030
2040
in
terms
of
our
development
that
we
were
just-
and
maybe
this
is
more
for
later
in
the
in
the
program
here.
Q
But
since
we're
on
our
last
item,
we
we
still,
we
still
don't
seem
to
have
a
a
consideration
for
our
climate
change
initiatives
and
the
South
Loop
is
a
great
example
of
a
place
where
I'm
not
100,
sure,
30
years
from
now
how
we
are
going
to
convert
that
entire
thing
to
something:
that's
a
lot
more
sustainable
and
so
I,
just
wondering
if
the
Port
Authority
or
the
Planning
Commission
or
who,
who
is
thinking
about
that
the
sick
folk,
don't
necessarily
have
to
do
it
if
we're
not
asking
them
to
do
it,
but
I
do
want
to
I.
Q
Do
want
to
to
kind
of
put
out
there
that,
if
we're
talking
about
what
what
comes
down
to
like
seven
dollars,
a
square
foot
of
of
land,
that
is
now
going
to
be
steel
and
concrete,
and
if
it's
a
parking
ramp,
that's
even
worse.
Q
What
are
we
doing
to
offset
those
conditions
and
do
we,
as
a
port
authority
and
a
city
council,
have
a
responsibility
to
be
thinking
about
that
in
ways
we
weren't?
Maybe
thinking
about
that
in
2015
or
in
2020,
in
20
2007
or
whenever
some
of
these
projects
started
their
long
patient
Journey
towards
development?
Q
So
I
don't
know
if
there's
an
answer
to
this
particular
development
or
if
the
folks
at
sick,
as
they
actually
start
to
build
this
out,
can
give
us
some
insights
into
how
they
might
do.
Things
seems
like
a
manufacturing
facility
has
a
really
big
roof
that
could
accommodate
a
lot
of
solar
panels,
for
example
right
or
other
things
like
that.
Where
are
they
in
support
of
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish
with
our
sustainability
goals,
knowing
that
commercial
development
and
large
buildings
are
the
single
number
one
greatest
climate
change
problem?
A
And
I
appreciate
that
councilmember,
dallasandra
and
I
won't
put
Jason
on
the
spot
to
try
and
answer
their
question
because
it's
I,
it
is
a
big
question
and
I
think
it's
more
of
a
statement
and
I
think
a
a
policy
discussion
for
the
council.
They
have
longer
term
and
the
the
port
is
Authority
as
well
as
we
do
this
public
subsidy
of
large
projects.
Q
Yeah
Mr
Mr
May,
if
you,
if
you
I,
would
like
the
Port
Authority.
Maybe
this
is
the
right
statement
and
you're
right,
I'm
I'm,
it's
more
of
a
statement
than
a
than
an
ask.
I
would
like
the
port
authority
to
care
as
much
about
our
sustainability
targets
as
it
relates
to
transportation
and
commercial
building
development,
which
are
the
two
biggest
things
that
the
Port
Authority
has
influence
over
against
our
sustainability
targets.
They're
they're,
you
can
go
to
our
website.
Q
They're
big
they're,
huge
everybody
knows
about
them,
they're,
the
two
biggest
things
and
this
body
in
I,
don't
get
to
speak
to
this
body
more
than
once,
every
seven
months
or
so
so
I'll
take
my
win,
and
then
you
can
chastise
me
later,
but
but
we
need
to
this
body
needs
to
think
about
this
together.
It's
not
just
for
the
city
council
thanks.
J
Jason
yeah
Mr
Mayor
councilmember
dalessandro
I
can
State
during
our
conversations
with
regards
to
the
design
of
the
parking
ramp
and
working
with
the
officials
from
SEC
it
was
discussed
with
regards
to
it.
J
Could
there
be
an
option
down
the
line
where
we
could
potentially
install
solar
panels
on
the
parking
ramp,
there's
additionally,
new
technologies
coming
out
with
regards
to
solar
on
screening,
so
that
those
conversations
were
had
I'm,
not
sure
with
regards
to
the
design
of
their
office
complex
where
they
are
with
regards
to
sustainability
on
that
front,
but
we
have
initially
had
those
conversations
with
regards
to
the
parking
ramp.
J
It
is
coming
down
to
funding
right
now
for
us,
as
well
as
for
sick
as
to
who
would
would
pay
for
that
additional
cost
to
do
it,
but
just
making
sure
that
it
is
designed
that
the
parking
rep
is
designed.
So
if
that
those
funds
were
available,
additional
grants
were
available
that
it
is
able
to
accept
those
types
of
Advanced
Technologies
on
the
ramp.
S
J
Mr
Mayor
councilmember
Nelson
correct.
There
will
be
EV
stations
as
part
of
the
requirement
within
this
ramp.
S
Okay,
great
so
tangential
just
made
me
think
of
it.
So
can
you
go
back
to
the
slide
with
the
employment
and
we
have
a
requirement
for
retention
and
new
in
phase
two
has
169
current
employees
are
those
all
currently
in
Phase
One
or
those
employees
that
are
over
in
the
Old
Shakopee
industrial
area
or
where
are
those
employees.
J
I
guess
Mr
mayor
council,
member
Nelson
they're
located
elsewhere
within
the
metro
in.
S
The
Metro
okay,
so
this
would
either
be
their
other
location,
so
I
think
shock
or
be
Savage.
Sorry,
sorry,
my
friends
in
shocked
me
and
Savage
that
I
mixed
you
up
so
okay
do
we
know
anything
more
about
the
one
that
is
in
the
Old
Shakopee
Industrial
Area.
What's
the
status
of
that?
Is
that
still
open?
Will
it
be
open
after
this
phase,
or
is
that
not
something
we
know
Mr.
J
A
Why
don't
we
if
you
have
another
question,
why
don't
we
ask
another
question,
then
we'll
bring
the
six
Folks
up
then
we'll
open
the
public
hearing?
How
about.
S
S
It's
not
all
that
I
would
just
ask
that
we
report
out
to
the
public
at
our
next
regular
meeting
so
that
they
know
if
we
take
any
action
here
about
what
it
was
and
why
I
know
this
has
been
before
the
council
and
the
city
a
number
of
times
before
so
I
I
think
this
makes
sense,
but
just
want
to
make
sure
people
are
informed
because
I
think
they
engaged
more
in
those
meetings
than
this
meeting
agreed.
A
A
And
yes,
we
certainly
will
report
out
at
our
next
council
meeting.
That's
a
that's
a
good
idea.
N
Thank
you
mayor,
so
just
a
couple
here,
real
quick,
so
I
think
I've
seen
it
many
times
the
the
maintenance
agreement
being
50.
Can
you
give
me
a
little
bit
history
on
and
that
at
all,
in
terms
of,
is
that
just
standard
something
we've
seen
you
know?
Is
there
a
rationale
behind
that
50
kind
of
breakdown.
J
Mr
Mayor
councilmember
Lowman.
The
reason
for
that
is,
is
based
on
the
funding
that
50
of
this
ramp
or
over
50
of
this
ramp
potentially
will
be
available
for
public
use
because
we
are
using
self-loop
development
funds
to
help
pay
for
50
of
of
the
parking
ramp.
J
N
When
we
look
at
those
parking
lots,
you
know
the
one
that
we
will
build
there.
How
long
is
the
lifespan
of
of
that
that
facility
there
and
about.
J
Mr
Mayor
councilmember
Lowman,
it's
well
over
we're
looking
at
at
least
over
a
50-year.
The
lifespan
of
the
parking
ramp
definitely
depends
on
on
long-term
maintenance
and
and
how
well
that
is,
that
is
undertaken.
N
And
then,
finally,
what
would
be
the
cost
I
know?
My
colleague
here
had
asked
the
idea
of
the
conversion.
What
would
be
the
additional
cost
if
we
tried
to
have
something
that
was
built?
That
was
convertible.
J
Mean
Mr
Mayor,
councilmember
Lowman,
that's
something
I
can
definitely
talk
to
our
architect
on
I
can
definitely
follow
up
a
little
bit
further
with
regards
to
the
the
convertibility
of
of
a
of
a
level
or
two
of
the
existing
design,
and
definitely
can
do
that
in
in
an
update
back
to
the
commission
and
city
council
I.
N
Think,
given
the
the
interest
that
that
our
our
Council
has
shown
around
sustainability,
I
think
a
number
of
folks
have
brought
that
up
and
I
don't
want
to
be
careful.
We
really
should
be
asking
questions
in
this
point
in
time,
but
I
do
think
that'd
be
I
would
really
appreciate
if
we'd
look
at
that
in
terms
of
trying
to
as
we're
looking
towards
to
you
know,
make
this
something
that
can
be
utilized
if
an
ongoing
basis.
A
No
additional
Council
questions,
Port
Denny,
it's
not
that
I
understand.
We
have
our
friends
from
sick
here,
maybe
come
up
and
answer
the
question
regarding
the
employment.
Is
that
what
your.
A
Was
council
member.
A
A
Good
evening
and
welcome
good
evening,
if
you
could
identify
yourself
for
the
record
and
I
address
that
if
the
council
member
needs
to
re-ask
this
question,
if
that
would
be
helpful
or
if
you
have
anything
else
to
add
to
the
presentation,
we'd
be
more
than
happy
to
hear
it
thanks.
My.
U
Name
is
Christian
Weisner
I'm
CFO
of
zik
North
America
I'm,
with
a
company
for
17
years,
John
North
America
six
months
ago,
so
I'm
fairly
new
to
to
the
United
States
and
the
project
and
with
me
is
Taylor
Lautner.
A
Welcome
so
councilmember
Nelson
did
you
want
to
restate
your
question?
Yeah
I'll
give.
S
It
a
shot
so
I
am
just
wondering
there
were
already
employees
that
were
in
the
calculations,
they're
coming
from
different
places
and
and
candidly
I'm
just
wondering
about
the
location
in
the
Old
Shakopee
Industrial
Area,
it's
in
my
district,
so
just
kind
of
wondering
what
your
plans
are
for
that
area
and
and
looking
forward
to
having
you
expand
in
the
South
Loop,
but
yeah
just
curious.
What's
going
on
there.
I
U
I
I,
don't
please
I
will
actually
refer
to
your
question
about
sustainability,
the
the
daughter
of
the
founder
of
the
company
of
Dr
Evan
zik.
She
is
very,
very
close
to
sustainability,
so
sustainability
is
very,
very
important
to
her.
She
used
to
be
on
the
supervisory
Board
of
the
zig
group,
and
so
sustainability
is
something
that
we
look
into.
We've
already
looked
into
the
options
that
we
have
for
campus
phase,
one
and
two.
U
What
we
currently
do
is
we
look
into
an
option
for
drilling
Wells
for
geothermal,
because
geothermal
will
be
the
prerequisite
to
go
to
Net
Zero.
We
haven't
made
the
decision
upon
that
yet,
but
sustainability
is
definitely
something
that
we
would
love
to
work
with
you
on
in
order
to
maybe
we
can
bring
our
facility
down
to
Net
Zero
at
some
point
in
time.
A
A
A
So
if
there's
no
further
questions,
we
will
follow
our
recommended
steps
here
and
I
will
open
the
public
hearing
for
the
city
council
to
consider
granting
the
business
subsidies
to
sick.
A
A
I
see
no
one
coming
forward
so
Council
for
the
city,
council,
I
would
look
for
a
motion
to
close
the
public
hearing
item
3.4,
so
moved
motion
by
council
member
Lowman,
second
by
council
member
Mula
to
close
the
public
Hearing
in
item
3.4.
No
further
Council
discussion
on
this
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
opposed
motion
carries
6-0
and.
B
A
Counsel,
any
additional
comments,
questions
on
this
I
mean
I
will
I
will
say.
This
is
very
exciting.
I
was
on
the
council
when
the
Alpha
Properties
were
purchased
and
was
excited.
You
know
with
went
then,
as
as
Bob
said,
that
it
was
just
a
an
idea.
It
was
on
spec.
It
was
just
a
possibility
and
to
see
this
moving
forward
now
is
is
just
very
exciting.
A
It
was
exciting
to
open
the
phase,
one
equally
exciting
phase
two
and
just
really
looking
forward
to
phases
three
and
four
I'll
total
on
back
in
my
later
years
and
come
back
and
enjoy
the
grand
opening
celebration
that
that
will
take
place.
There
I'll
be
happy
to
do
so,
but
I'm
just
very
excited
about
this.
So
councilmember
Nelson.
S
Mayor
I,
just
want
to
say
that
I'm
very
supportive
of
this
I
do
know
that
we'll
be
losing
some
good
people
in
my
district,
but
it
opens
up
a
opportunity
for
other
businesses
to
come
in
to
that
area,
and
the
big
thing
that
I'd
like
to
say,
is
I
appreciate
the
ports
focus
and
the
council's
focus
on
a
strategy
of
supporting
our
hospitality
industry
and
diversify
in
our
economy,
and
this
is
an
exact
project
that
does
that
it's
it's
a
great
win
for
the
community
to
have
this
continue
to
expand
and
I
know.
S
When
we
talked
about
phase
one
you
know
there
was
always
like
well,
there's
phase
two
and
phase
three,
you
know
they're
going
to
come
in.
Are
they
and
it's
happening,
and
so
thank
you
to
sick
for
continuing
that
path,
and
thank
you
to
the
port
for
supporting
that.
It's
hopefully
supporting
that.
So
I
don't
want
to
be
presumptive,
but
I
this
this
Project's
great,
it's
I,
think
exactly
what.
As
a
council
member
we've
been
looking
at
in
terms
of
what
we
want
to
do,
Economic
Development.
A
There's
no
further,
no
further
comments
on
this
for
the
city,
council,
I
would
look
for
a
resolution
approving
agreements
with
the
port
authority
of
the
city
of
Bloomington
and
sick
product
and
competence,
centers
America's
LLC
for
phase
two
of
a
multi-phase
project,
so
moved
second
motion
by
councilmember
Lowman
second
by
council
member
MUA,
to
adopt
the
resolution
associated
with
item
3.4
this
evening.
No
further
Council
discussion
on
this.
All
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
opposed
motion,
carries
6-0.
D
B
A
I'm
very
good
I
think
Mr
President,
that
complete.
