Minneapolis Community Development and Regulatory Services Committee Meeting
A
B
Well,
I'm
delighted
to
be
able
to
be
here
too,
to
honor
Carolyn
and
just
thank
you.
We
have
so
many
good
citizens
in
our
community
that
go
above
and
beyond
help
us
with
issues
that
we
have
but
contribute
so
much
to
our
city,
and
so
Carolyn
is
one
of
them.
So
at
least
is
going
to
read
the
resolution
which
will
detail
her
work
in
our
city.
Allow.
A
Us
to
embarrass
you,
honoring
Carolyn
Roby,
for
22
years
of
service
to
the
Minneapolis
workforce
council,
whereas
Carolyn
began
her
career
at
Northwestern,
National
Bank
of
Minneapolis
in
1980,
and
she
is
a
trusted
colleague
who
has
been
committed
connected
and
invested
in
helping
Wells
Fargo
have
a
positive
impact
on
the
community
with
its
team
members
and
customers.
Carolyn
had
been
with
community
relations
for
most
of
her
career,
helping
Wells
Fargo
navigate
many
challenges,
including
many
name,
changes
and
mergers,
whereas
caroline
has
served
on
numerous
Wells
Fargo
initiatives
and
task
forces
over
the
years.
A
In
addition
to
her
leadership
in
the
community.
Most
recently,
Carolyn
led
Wells
Fargo's
market
priorities,
workgroup
as
part
of
the
strategic
philanthropic
steering
committee,
which
will
provide
an
important
roadmap
and
tools
for
market
leaders
and
team
members
to
do
more
focus
giving
in
their
communities
and
whereas
Carolyn
serves
as
a
board
member
of
the
Opus
Foundation
and
whereas
Carolyn
has
served
as
a
board
member
of
the
Minnesota
Council
on
foundations,
the
children's
theatre
company
and
the
loft.
A
Whereas
Carolyn
served
on
the
Minneapolis
workforce
council
since
1994,
which
is
longer
than
the
two
of
us,
have
been
on
the
City
Council.
So
that
says
something
and
has
been
chair
for
ten
of
those
years.
Whereas
through
her
work
on
the
Minneapolis
workforce,
Council
Carolyn
has
continued
to
keep
Minneapolis
residence
inn
at
the
forefront
of
many
iterations
of
employment
and
training
programs
over
the
years
with
her
leadership
and
focus
on
equity
and
employment.
A
Helping
thousands
of
Minneapolis
residents
find
career
paths
and
reach
self-sufficiency,
and
whereas
Carolyn
has
played
an
integral
role
in
developing
and
supporting
an
effective
network
of
community
based
service
delivery
organizations
within
our
city
and
whereas
Carolyn
on
web
Mraz
under
Carolyn's
active
leadership.
The
city
of
Minneapolis,
employment
and
training
has
earned
numerous
awards,
commendation,
certificates
of
appreciation
and
recognition
for
outstanding
service
delivery,
service,
delivery,
efficiency
and
effectiveness.
A
A
It's
really
just
very
unusual
to
have
someone
of
your
incredible
passion
and
commitment
and
integrity
doing
so
much
work
for
the
city
for
such
a
very
long
period
of
time,
especially
as
a
volunteer
in
a
leadership
role
where
so
many
people
learned
from
you
and
benefited
from
your
work.
So
we
are
just
deeply
unhappy
that
you're
leaving
and
will
try
to
recruit
you
to
do
something
else.
A
Unless
you
tell
us
now
you're
moving
to
Florida,
but
it
short
of
that
we
might
be
looking
for
something
else
for
you
to
do
to
help
us,
because
when
you
have
someone
good,
you
hang
on.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
your
commitment
and
I'll
note
I'm,
going
to
let
Carolyn
say
a
few
words
all
note
that
there
is
a
reception
this
afternoon
at
four
o'clock
at
sea
pad
and
everyone
is
invited
to
come
and
I,
don't
want
to
say,
say
goodbye,
but
thank
Carolyn
for
the
work
that
she's
done
well.
C
C
But
I
also
want
to
thank
the
mayor
and
the
City
Council
members,
and
this
the
Community
Development
Committee,
and
it's
just
been
an
extraordinary
adventure
and
I,
want
to
thank
all
of
my
my
colleagues
from
wells
fargo,
who
are
here:
Thank,
You,
wells
fargo
and
my
colleagues
in
the
city.
The
city
has
an
extraordinary
staff
at
Minneapolis,
employment
and
training
and
I.
Thank
you
for
for
your
engagement
and
involvement
to
have
been
formerly
Mike
and
David,
and
so
I
I'm
passionate
about
the
work
that
this
council
does
and
it's
as
I've
said
many
times
before.
C
It's
even
more
important.
Now,
given
the
extraordinary
economic
success
of
Minnesota
and
the
Twin
Cities
and
Minneapolis,
and
our
neighborhoods,
our
attention
and
focus
on
closing
the
disparity
gap
is
even
more
important
and
the
talent
that
is
in
these
families
and
neighborhoods
and
individuals
is
so
extraordinary.
I
know
that
that
the
leadership
of
the
workforce
council
in
the
future
is
going
to
be
Laura.
Beef
will
will
succeed
in
in
even
more
extraordinary
ways.
So
thank
you
so
much.
This
is
truly
a
great
honor
I
appreciate
it
very
much.
Thank
you.
A
Okay,
so
item
number
one
is
the
presentation
of
the
honor
for
Carolyn
Roby
and
we
have
completed
that
so
I'll
move
the
consent
agenda,
which
is
items
number
seven
through
17.
Is
there
any
items
anyone
would
like
to
pull
for
discussion
or
comment
or
question
on
which
item
on
council
on
item
number,
nine
councilmember,
Cano.
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I,
just
wanted
to
say
that
I'm
really
happy
to
see
the
city
of
Minneapolis
continued
support
for
home
line
to
provide
services
and
various
languages
to
our
more
than
half
renter
population
in
our
city
and
as
we
make
efforts
to
grow
our
city
to
have
have
us
be
a
cosmopolitan
hub
for
the
Midwest
I.
Think
it's
really
important
to
continue
to
support
the
renters
in
our
city.
I
myself
am
a
renter
I,
remember
when
I
used
to
live
in
Prospect
Park
I
actually
tried
to
call
home
line.
D
This
is
back
when
I
was
in
college
to
get
help,
but
at
the
time
they
didn't
actually
have
any
funding
to
support
people
in
Minneapolis,
so
they
weren't
able
to
support
me,
but
I'm
really
happy
to
be
here
years
later,
as
a
councilmember
approving
an
item
that
will
help
people
in
our
city
live
better
and
have
access
to
more
legal
support
to
ensure
that
they
have
stable
housing.
Thank
you
great.

feet
of

We
also
notified
the
Northeast
Minneapolis
Chamber
of
Commerce

industrial
neighborhood
association,
and
from
that
mailing
and
notification
process,
we
received
no
responses
for
or
against
the
applications.
A
There
any
questions

councilmember
Quincy
thank.
A
E
Chair
we
have
an
application
by
Kiki,
shamu
Inc,
doing
business
as
la
fresca
restaurant.
They
are
located
at
47,
50
grand
avenue
south.
There
are
full-service
restaurant
license
with
a
non
sell
wine
and
strong
beer
class
ii.
They
are
seeking
a
permanent
expansion
of
premises
for
an
outdoor
patio
to
be
located
on
private
property.
This
restaurant
has
operated
here
since
2013.
E
They
are
seeking
an
outdoor
expansion
for
an
outdoor
patio
that
will
be
on
private
property
there
in
the
tangletown
neighborhood
ward,
11
their
zone
c
1,
the
seating
will
be
expanded
in
the
outdoor
area
by
32
seats.
No
changes
to
the
inside
of
the
premises
proposed
hours
of
operation
are
seven
a.m.
to
midnight
both
on
the
interior
and
exterior
premises.
E
Public
hearing
is
required
for
this
expansion.
We
notified
all
residents
and
property
owners
within
300
feet
of
the
business
and
we
notified
the
tangletown
neighborhood
association
and
the
niccola
hiya
nicollet
East
Harriet
Business
Association.
We
did
receive
three
responses
from
that
mailing
one
was
in
support
of
the
application
and
two
were
opposed.
The
opposing
responses
that
we
received
related
directly
to
parking
on
the
block
and
we're
afraid
that
this
will
allow
additional
customers
to
park
on
the
block.
E
A
G
G
Address
bill
Hendrix,
I
live
at
47,
49
grand
avenue
south
little
nervous,
I'm,
not
supposed
to
say
that,
but
I
am
first
of
all,
I
purchased
a
property
My
partner
and
I
purchased
property
in
1978
on.
During
that
time
we
have
worked
with
all
businesses
in
our
neighborhood.
We
have
an
easement
that
we
granted
Barb
and
Neil,
who
bought.
I
G
G
Realized
and
I
understand
that
you
guys
are
bound
by
laws
and
zoning
laws
and
I
understand
that
the
situation
is
is
in
our
neighborhood.
You
know,
and
I
found
this
out
with
my
students
at
mctc.
Working
with
a
very
diverse
distillation
is
that
one
size
doesn't
fit
all
and
in
our
neighborhood,
even
though
we're
on
Grand
we're
not
38th
in
Grand
we're
not
46
in
Grand
we're,
not
lake
and
grand.
We
are
a
residential,
neighborhood
and
I
know
that
the
zoning
laws
in
our
area
are
the
same
as
38th
and
grand
46
and
grand.
G
G
G
However,
we
are
a
family
neighborhood.
All
of
our
units
are
two
bedrooms.
That
means
that
we
have
mom
could
have
two
adults.
We
could
have
two
adults
with
two
children,
and
that
means
groceries.
That
means
schlepping
kids.
That
means
slepping
packages
to
these
units.
I
would
not
have
any
objection
to
this
if
their
restaurant
faced
48.
G
We
have
already
experienced
parking
issues
when
I
rent
my
apartment
and
my
building
was
built
in
1927,
and
we
empathic
and
everybody
else
in
the
neighborhood
spent
a
lot
of
money,
making
sure
that
our
residents
are
well
have
good
accommodations.
But
the
first
question
that
I
get
what's
the
parking
like
I.
G
In
the
evening,
we're
lucky
to
be
able
to
find
parking
on
forty-eighth
street,
now
I
understand
from
your
office,
counseling
Quincy.
Thank
you
so
much,
okay,
that
currently
the
restaurant
houses
36
seats.
You
guys
the
zoning
says
it
is
okay
to
expand
32
seats
and
they're
only
required
to
have
for
parking
spots.
So
my
question
to
the
zoning
council
or
to
you
in
all
fairness
to
fairness
to
the
residents
of
our
community,
is
how
can
we
double
the
size
of
the
restaurant
and
if
I
do
do
a
simple
math?
G
I
have
to
give
credit
for
that.
However,
he
has
constantly
operated
outside
the
box.
I
learned
today
that
when
he
originally
applied
for
this
license,
he
said
there
was
going
to
be
no
outdoor
seating,
you'll
notice
that
there
has
been
ever
since
he
moved
in
and
the
tenants
and
the
owners
have
never
complained.
G
The
only
reason
that
he
applied
for
this
license
is
because
he
expanded
without
talking
to
him.
To
me,
that's
not
a
good
neighbor
I'm
asking
for
a
couple
of
things.
Number
1
I've
talked
to
again.
The
councilman's
office
has
been
great.
Diana
and
critical
parking
has
been
great
Julie.
Is
that
her
name?
Okay?
She
has
been
fabulous.
G
Okay,
I
have
no
complaints
with
the
city;
I
really
don't,
but
I
am
asking
you
to
do
a
couple
of
things
number
one.
Let
me
let
us
work
with
the
critical
parking
get.
The
critical
parking
set.
I
talked
to
little
bird
I
talked
to
Jane,
kept
low
centre
tap.
Lo
I
talked
to
Jodi
and
little
bird
I
talked
to
Charlie's
bike
shop.
G
J
J
When
I
saw
the
addition
decking
being
built,
I
stopped
an
ass
I
said:
does
anyone
here
have
a
building
permit
for
this?
Oh
no
honest
I,
think
I
said
well.
How
can
you
expand
this
without
getting
a
building
permit?
Well,
he
doesn't
have
to
follow
the
rules.
I
guess
or
decided
you
just
bend
them
a
little
bit
and
maybe
he's
been
able
to
do
that
all
along
and
but
this
time
he's
going
to
be
called
on.
J
It
I
think
it's
unfair
for
me,
as
a
property
owner
to
give
up
street
parking
that
I
had
in
front
of
the
building
for
40
years
to
someone
so
that
they
can
generate
additional
profit
for
their
business.
The
first
question
I
get
for
people
moving
into
my
building
is:
how
is
the
parking
and
it
used
to
be
even
when
I
live
there
they're
always
manage
something
within
a
couple
of
doors
down.
It's
no
longer
that
way.
K
J
J
A
L
Jeff
miller
and
I'm
at
4744
grand
avenue
south
it's
a
three
unit,
townhome
building
I
own
one
of
the
units
and
I
am
president
of
the
Association
that
manages
the
the
building.
My
concern
somewhat
is
parking,
but
more
so
with
the
control
over
the
patrons
that
visit
the
restaurant.
My
building
is
immediately
next
to
la
fresca.
We
share
property
line
as
part
of
the
yard.
L
People
thinking
that
it's
more
of
a
apart,
rather
than
a
private
residence
bikes
parked
in
my
yard,
bikes
parked
on
my
sidewalk
kids,
getting
up
from
for
their
with
their
mothers
outside
who
are
ringing
our
doorbell
multiple
times,
while
I'm,
not
home.
My
life
is
home
and
the
mothers
are
doing
nothing
about
it.
L
Now
that's
what
the
existing
non-permitted
patio
that
we
have
out
there
right
now
that
Hector
has
been
having
people
enjoy
outdoor
seating.
Now
I
can
only
imagine
how
verses
this
is
going
to
get
expanding
it
to
full
I'm.
We
saw
him,
expand
the
patio
and
start
building
that
it
was
just
okay.
Here
we
go.
It's
only
gonna
get
worse.
I've
even
gone
out,
mowed
my
lawn
after
a
ten-hour
day
at
work
and
found
that
the
patrons
on
the
patio
we're
telling
me
don't
don't
mow
your
lawn
now
we're
having
dinner.
L
Okay,
wait
am
I
gonna
moment
I've.
Had
a
waiter
from
the
restaurant
come
running
over.
Out
of
my
yard,
told
me
to
stop
my
way,
my
lawn,
because
it's
interfering
with
the
Tigers
now
I
bought
the
place
in
2006.
So
almost
10
years
ago.
We
knew
that
there
was.
You
know
businesses
at
that
corner
of
the
street,
but
they
were
all
closed
in
businesses.
A
I
K
Insect
Arizona
la
fresca,
a
couple
of
businesses
in
Minneapolis
own:
oh,
you
know
for
that
outdoor
patio
that
I'm
proposing
these,
because
you
know
in
the
summer
hours
or
the
summer,
mostly
other
restaurant,
you
know
they'll
be
sitting
like
Katrina,
perhaps
the
patties
for
by
the
restaurant
inside
sent
it
doesn't
change
that
so,
in
other
words,
a
try
to
be,
you
know,
run
a
more
unique
restaurant
that
I
could
try
to.
You
know
have
these
prevent
issues
and
stuff
they
did
it.
So
that's
what
I'm
proposing
to
expand
for
that!
K
K
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Obviously,
oh
we
started
hearing
some
of
these
concerns
from
neighborhoods,
so
I
appreciate
everybody
contacting
our
office
as
quickly
as
they
have
as
part
of
this
public
hearing.
Certainly,
we
have
appreciated
the
willingness
to
with
mr.
Ruiz
to
work
with
neighbors
on
past
issues.
I
think
he's
been
a
terrific
restaurant
again.
I
know
he
has
a
lot
of
local
support
from
the
neighborhood
and
people
do
walk
and
enjoy
the
restaurant
scream
and
I
I
would
have
just
kind
of
follow
up
with
mr.
F
whizzes
comments
that,
in
fact,
this
outdoor
seating
is
not
going
to
double
the
capacity
of
the
restaurant
and
of
who
they'll
be
serving
the
impact.
I,
don't
think,
will
be
greatly
changed,
but
I
am
very
sensitive
to
the
parking
concerns.
I
know
these
residents
in
the
neighborhood.
We
can't
grow
a
street
and
we
can't
pave
over
a
park,
but
they
don't
have
enough
parking
as
well,
so
that
there's
parking
concerns
all
over
the
neighborhood
and
so
I
thought.
One
of
the
considerations
and
conditions
that
we
work
with
mr.
F
We
might
be
able
to
accommodate
it
that
way,
and
they
also
indicated
that
they
would
try
to
have
other
customers
and
others
park
away
from
the
restaurant,
leaving
accommodating
space
for
as
many
residents
in
the
neighborhood
on
Grand
Avenue.
So
I'd
like
to
move
approval
of
the
expansion
of
premises
permit
with
the
appreciation
of
the
restaurant
itself,
but
with
an
additional
business
operating
conditions.
F
Business
license
operating
conditions
that
employees
Allah
fresco
will
work
with,
will
not
park.
Vehicles
on
Grand
Avenue
during
their
work
shifts
and
commercial
vehicles
will
not
unload
products
on
Grand
Avenue
for
la
fresca,
and
hopefully
those
would
continue
to
solve
the
main
focus
of
the
issues
facing
the
residence
and
also
like
to
say
in
addition
to
those
official
permit
or
conditions.
We
look
forward
for
the
actor
and
his
staff
to
continue
to
work
with
neighbors
on
specific
issues
affecting
operations.
A
E
I
E
Most
recent
years
it
was
has
been
a
fitness
in
yoga
center.
The
applicant
is
applying

anzio
liquor
license
class
b
to
operate
as
a
full-service
restaurant
plus
an
event
center
for
public
and
private
events.
They
will
have
two
outdoor
areas
and
they
will
be
operated
strictly
as
class
e
license
areas,
which
means
no
live
entertainment
in
the
outdoor
areas.
E
They
have
a
parking
requirement.
No
I'm,
sorry
this.
This
rush
that,
yes,
the
zoning
administrator,
has
determined
that
this
business
needs
30
off
street
parking
spaces
and
they
have
listos
in
the
mosaic
parking
ramp.
They
went
seating
on
the
inside
for
180

and
exterior
seating
for

from

The

also
owns

southeast
fine

and
the
aqua

at

First

North
public
hearing
is
required
because
the
premises
are
expanded
to
outdoor
areas.
That
weren't
licensed
before
we,
you
noticed
all
property
owners
within
600
feet.
You
posted
multiple
family,
residential
dwellings.
With
hearing
notices,
we
also
notified
the
Lowry

east
Carrick,
echo
and
east
I'll

neighborhood
groups.
We
also
notified
the
uptown
Business
Association
and

from.
K
E
A
Are
there
any
questions
for
mr.
Wilson
on
item
number
four,
seeing
none
we'll
open
the
public
hearing
on
item
number
four,
which
is
a
new
business
at
a
very
old
location?
Is
there
anyone
here
to
speak
to
this
issue?
Is
your
hark?
Do
you
want
to
say
something
come
on
you're
lucky
people
aren't
here
to
say
anything
to
you
so
I'll
just
note.
This
is
across
the
street
from
my
ward
and
I
am
praying
that
you
can
make
something
of
this
beautiful
historic
building.
N
Commenting
on
the
I
mention
in
uptown
at
the
old
Walker
leverage,
so
we
did
we're
excited
it's
a
beautiful
building.
Adding
the
outdoor
element
in
uptown
Adam
adds
value
to
the
building
and
we've
done
about
50
tours
of
the
building
for
profit
and
potential
clients
for
weddings
and
corporate
events,
and
we've
got.
We've
received
a
great
response
back
everybody's
excited
waiting
for
the
building
to
be
done
to
book.
Their
weddings
and
corporate
events
will
actually
have
about
four
weddings
already
booked
after
august,
so
we're
excited
the
neighbors
are
excited
that
we've
seen
a
great
response.
N
A
I
A
E
You,
madam
chair,
we
have
an
applica
for
an
extended
hours
of
operation
license
by
TAS
automotive
LLC.
They
are
located
at
45,
54
Chicago.
They
are
currently
a
gasoline
filling
station
motor
vehicle
repair
center
in
a
c2
zoning
district.
They
are
allowed
currently
to
be
open
from
six
a.m.
to
10pm
sunday
to
thursday
and
fri
on
friday
and
saturday.
They
can
be
open
until
six
a.m.
to
11pm
it's
in
the
regina
neighborhood
in
8th
Ward.
E
This
gas
station
is
seeking
24
hours
of
operation,
but
for
unattended
gasoline
sales,
as
opposed
to
attend
a
gasoline
sales.
So
customers
will
come
up,
use
a
credit
card,
be
able
to
buy
gas,
but
they
will
not
be
able
to
go
into
the
station
itself
to
buy
convenience,
food
items
or
anything
like
that.
So
it's
a
little
different.
It
should
be
a
little
quieter
stations
that
do
this
has
a
series
of
equipment
they
need
to
install
and
need
an
emergency
pump,
shutoff
valves
that
are
easily
quick
access
to
the
pump
Islands.
They
have
emergency.
E
Please
call
buttons
and
fire
call
buttons
fire
extinguishers.
Things
like
that,
this
station
has
complied
with
all
of
those
Fire
Department
requirements,
but
a
public
hearing
is
required
for
the
extended
hours
license.
We
did
notify
all
residents
and
property
owners
within
300
feet
of
the
gas
station
and
we
also
notified
the
South
Chicago
Business
Alliance
and
the
field
Regina
Northrup
Neighborhood
Association.
As
of
today,
we
have
received
no
responses
for
or
against
the
application
they
seem
to
meet
all
the
requirements
and
staff
recommendation
is
that
you
approve.
It
are.

Our
remaining
item
is
item
number
18.
Miss
Kimball,
welcome.
O
Since
its
last
appropriation
of
program,
income
funds,
the
city
of
Minneapolis
has
earned
980
3526
dot
89
cents
across
its
five
grant
awards
a
breakout
for
each
grant
is
included
in
the
detail
of
the
request
for
counsel
action.
Nsp
rules
require
that
program
income
received
is
spent
in
accordance
with
the
geographic
boundaries
activities
and
obligations
described
in
its
respective
nsp
contracts.
O
Historically,
the
NSP
program
has
had
caps
of
sixty
thousand
dollars
for
development
gap
and
seven
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
for
home
buyer
assistance
for
housing
development
activities.
Funds
have
typically
been
used
to
pay
for
the
rehabilitation
of
existing
structures
moving
forward,
because
staff
intends
to
use
remaining
NSP
funds
across
all
five
grands
to
construct
new
housing
on
land
bank
property.
O
We
are
requesting
that
we
adjust
the
caps
of
our
of
our
NSP
program.
New
construction
housing
typically
has
higher
project
costs
than
rehabilitation
of
existing
structures
in
our
historic
green
homes
north
rounds.
The
average
subsidy
request
was
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
collectively,
and
we
were
historically
using
about
half
of
our
funds
from
minnesota
housing
and
about
half
of
our
funds
from
the
city
of
minneapolis.
So
the
total
request
was
a
hundred
thousand
and
roughly
5050
was
split
by
two
different
organizations.
O
Although
there
are
signs
of
the
housing
market
moving
in
North
Minneapolis
housing
values
have
still
not
fully
recovered
to
pre-recession
levels,
particularly
in
neighborhoods,
where
a
majority
of
the
nsp
vacant
lots
are
owned
by
the
city
of
Minneapolis
due
to
the
market.
Realities
of
the
cost
of
new
construction
projects
and
sale
prices
in
the
neighborhoods
proposed
staff
is
recommending
that
we
adjust
the
cap
for
development
gap
on
new
construction
homes
to
seventy
thousand
dollars.
O
O
The
NSP
program
requires
that
every
home
sold
through
through
green
homes
north
or
where
that's
financed
with
NSP
funds,
that
every
homebuyer
have
either
a
recapture
provision
which
is
secured
with
the
home
buyer
assistance.
So
we
provide
five
thousand
dollars
and
require
a
five-year
affordability
period
or
homebuyer
occupancy
period
with
that
secured
with
at
five
thousand
dollars.
O
Alternatively,
it
is
possible
for
some
organizations,
such
as
city
of
lakes,
Community,
Land,
Trust
or
habitat
for
humanity
that
have
longer-term
affordability,
affordability,
mechanisms
for
the
sale
of
their
homes
to
do
a
declaration
of
covenants
that
is
tied
to
the
total
amount
of
assistance.
That's
provided
to
the
construction
of
the
home,
and
so
in
those
cases
it
could
be
a
10
to
20-year
affordability
period.
So.
O
I,
don't
know
that
we
have
checked.
However,
we
have
required
as
a
component
of
the
green
homes
North
program,
that
all
of
the
houses
are
sold
for
home
ownership
and
we've
secured
it
with
a
mortgage
and
note.
I
could
have
sherry
show
quest
who
has
been
at
the
administrator
of
the
program
come
back
with
that
information,
so
the
gap
is
to.
O
The
average
cost
in
green
homes,
nor
thrown
five,
the
average
cost
for
a
new
construction
home,
was
260
thousand
dollars.
Total
development
costs
frankly
ranged
from
210,000
to
315,000,
and
the
reason
for
that
range
is
because
a
variety
of
square
footage,
ha's
and
bedroom
and
bathroom
makeups
were
recommended
in
the
most
recent
funding
ground.
So
we
had
everything
from
a
two-bedroom
one-bath
house
to
a
five-bedroom,
two-bath
house
or
larger
families,
and
then.
O
The
developers
are
all
required
to
sell
the
houses
for
their
appraised
value.
The
reason
why
there's
a
development
gap
is
because
the
markets
in
these
neighborhoods
also
vary
significantly.
So
a
house
in
the
Jordan
neighborhood,
for
example,
might
be
able
to
sell
for
170,000
that
same
house
in
another
neighborhood
that
has
a
stronger
market
like
shingle
creek
might
be
able
to
sell
for
220,000
r,
3
r,
3
10.
A
O
A
O
Right
and
it
that's
part
of
the
reason
why
we
think
that
it's
important
to
have
a
seventy
thousand
dollar
cap,
because
we
think
that
it's
important
to
ensure
that
there
are
houses
that
are
built
in
the
markets
that
are
weakest.
Where
there's
been
the
most
impact
from
foreclosure,
foreclosure
and
and
where
the
market
impact
has
been
the
greatest.
Well.
A
K
D
You,
madam
chair,
so
I
have
a
question
about
18
3
authorizing
amendment
of
home
buyer
assistance
assistance
guidelines
from
seven
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
to
five
thousand
dollars
of
assistance
for
new
nsp
project
commitments.
So
is
this
assistance
for
the
homeowner,
a
future
homeowner
correct,
okay,
and
is
there
a
racial
equity
commitment
to
this
because
I
know,
we've
talked
a
lot
about
how
Minneapolis
has
a
very
big
gap
in
ownership
between
people
of
color
and
white
people.
So
I'm
wondering
is
that
just
is
that
tailored
to
address
that
disparity.
D
P
Madam
chair
members
of
the
committee
comes
member
Cano.
We
do.
There
are
several
aspects
of
this
that
are
built
into
the
green
homes
North
program.
One
of
them
is
minority.
Small
business
owner
required
subcontracting
requirements,
and
so
that's
a
that's,
a
pretty
significant
component
of
green
homes,
north
that's
what
the
funds
will
be
used
for.
Additionally,
there
traditionally,
a
lot
of
the
developers
that
develop
under
the
green
homes
North
program
have
an
extremely
strong
track
record
in
serving
households
of
color
Habitat
for
Humanity.
