The developer is proposing two options for the payment of the development fees: (1) The developer will pay the fees, based on the approximately 40 acres to be developed as the outlet mall, in the amount of $427,055 in the form of an assessment on the property over an eight-year period with 6% per annum interest. (2) The developer will transfer ownership of approximately 38 acres of industrial land located north of the outlet mall to the City of Albertville in exchange for 100% of the development fees. Each of the options is contingent upon the developer and the City entering into a mutually acceptable Developer's Agreement. The developer has agreed to reserve Outlot A (approximately unbuildable 20 acres) for future highway access to 1-94.
