8. DEPARTMENT BUSINESS
A. Planning/Zoning
1). Rezoning Application from Westbridge Community Church/Leuer-
Munstertieger Properties, Inc. to Rezone Outlot A, Heuring Meadows, from
B-2, Limited Business District to P/I, Public Institutional District
Brixius reported there is a rezoning request for Outlet A, Heuring Meadows, from B-2 Limited
Business, to P/I, Public Institutional. This site is 11.5 acres in total area. The outlot was created
in 2001 and there is a B-2 single parcel in the northeast corner of the site. The application before
Council includes a concept plan for a 17,600 square-foot church with a seating capacity for 600
people. The concept plan also shows a 204 stall parking lot with access points at CSAH 19 and
53rd Street NE.
The Planning Commission reviewed the February 5, 2015 planning report and held a public
hearing at the February 10, 2015 Planning Commission meeting. It was recommended by a 3-0
vote of the Planning Commission to change zoning for Outlot A, Heuring Meadows, from B-2,
Limited Business to P/I, Public Institutional District.
Brixius stated the site is guided in the Comprehensive Plan as commercial land use in a B-2
arrangement extending up to the townhomes. The zoning was established in 1998 as B-2
Limited Business to allow low intensity uses that would be compatible to uses along CSAH 19 as
well as adjoining residential neighborhoods.
In 2012, the Visioning Study re-established the land use objectives and established the current
land use map. In review of the application, staff found that the land use change is inconsistent
with the City’s long-range land use plan and contrary to the goals and policies of the Visioning
Study.
The B-2 zoning does not allow large assembly uses such as theaters and churches and thus
rezoning would be needed for the church. Brixius stated that the proposed church would have
characteristics similar to the B-2 commercial use except for large assembly activities. The
rezoning would isolate a current B-2 property, which currently has a single-family home on it,
and it was originally intended to be included with the larger land use area.
The concept plan is consistent with what is allowed in the P/I, Public Institutional District. The
applicant would need to go through a subdivision application to plat the property, site and
building plan review, and establish access points to the site.
Brixius stated that with the site as a church, it will remove the property from the tax rolls. The
City currently receives approximately $4,000 in taxes due to agricultural uses. Brixius stated
staff looked at The Shoppes at Prairie Run to identify potential City taxes if the property were
developed as commercial and estimated approximately $133,000 in taxes would go to the City if
developed commercially. There are also no park dedication fees for public or institutional uses.

Meeting Date: March 2, 2015
Brixius stated the applicant has outlined that churches provide economic benefits to the
communities in which they are located. At the Planning Commission public hearing, it was
estimated that 60% of the membership lives outside the STMA area and that draws spin off
business to local retailers and restaurants. It was also stated at the hearing that the church
provides social services to the community that are not currently provided.
Brixius stated that the site has utility capacity to serve the church. He also stated the adjoining
streets have capacity as well, but development may accelerate the need for the installation of a
traffic signal at 53rd Street NE and CSAH 19. The church would be willing to move forward
with their share for the improvement.
Brixius stated there are two resolutions before Council: one for approval with findings and one
for denial with findings. Brixius clarified that since they are outside of the Twin Cities
Metropolitan Area, the City may change land use and zoning at its discretion.
Brixius clarified that a traffic study has not been done at this time.
Jeremiah Curran, 851 Kayla Lane, Hanover, provided a history of the church and different
locations where the church has been operating. He stated it became clear the church needed a
new permanent home and the church has entered into a purchase agreement for Outlot A,
Hearing Meadows.
Curran indicated that utilities and access will not be overburdened and the church would
contribute to signalization if needed. The use does meet performance standards and is
compatible to the area.
Curran stated there are benefits and economic value that will be brought in by the church. 60%
of the membership lives outside the STMA area. He stated that the church reinvests into the
community. He stated studies have shown churches grow residential neighborhoods, increase
property values, decrease crime rates, and provide over $100,000 a year in social services.
In regards to the application being contrary to the City’s long-range land use planning, Curran
felt that is why there is a zoning amendment application process. Curran felt that the church
would not be inconsistent with development along the CSAH 19 corridor. Social services and
economic benefits outweigh the loss of property tax revenue.
Curran stated they have looked at many sites within the STMA area and they are willing to work
with the City’s processes to rezone the property. He stated he feels they meet the criteria for
rezoning.
Hudson stated that staff has brought forward the vision of past Councils, but he is uncomfortable
with the idea of preventing a property owner who is willing to sell from pursuing an agreement
with a willing buyer. He added there are several vacant commercial areas around town and he
felt that if demand drives the need for a church at this site, the Council’s long-range plan should
not be a factor in denying the application. He was in support of the rezoning of the site to P/I
Public Institutional District.

Meeting Date: March 2, 2015
John Warner, 5447 Labeaux Avenue NE, spoke in favor of denying the rezoning application, felt
that revenue will be lost in City taxes, and had concerns about an assessment for an easement to
the his property.
Mike Leuer, spoke to the issue of an easement for a road. He indicated the preliminary concept
showed the road on the site. Leuer stated that the market dictates what can be developed and he
does not see commercial development going in at the proposed site.
Hudson stated that there were comments made at the Planning Commission meeting from an
Albertville resident living adjacent to the site that was originally opposed to the rezoning, but
changed her mind after the presentation and felt the rezoning would benefit her property. Jared
Grove clarified the homeowner had been trying to sell her property and the unknown commercial
development of the site did not allow her to close on the sale.
Hendrickson inquired about the Planning Commission decision on the rezoning. Hudson
indicated that after the public hearing and listening to all the comments, the three commissioners
voted in favor of the rezoning.
Hendrickson shared that her original viewpoint was to keep the CSAH 19 corridor as
commercial, but with the amount of public input regarding the issue, she wants to do what is best
for Albertville. The feedback she has received has been generally positive.
Sorensen asked Brixius to recap the Visioning process utilized in 2012. Brixius stated that the
Comprehensive Plan had last been updated in 1998 and with the development that was occurring,
they saw need to update the plan for the next twenty years and decided to do a vision study rather
than a completely new Comprehensive Plan. The study involved the Planning Commission,
Parks Committee, City Council, etc. The focus of the plan was on commercial and economic
development as areas outside of Albertville had lots of residential growth and they saw an
opportunity for a hub for commercial and industrial uses. Sorensen indicated that business
owners were also included in the study. He clarified that the study involved more groups than
just the City Council. He stated that the City is four square miles and that as a Councilmember
he feels he needs to look long term and protect the tax base. He also feels this rezoning would
set a precedent.
Vetsch stated there is past history regarding the site and there have been offers on the property.
He stated there is also a loss of tax dollars for the school district. Sorensen indicated the church
had come before Council in November and the Council had at that time indicated they wanted to
the site zoned as commercial. He also stated there had been a proposal for a 100-unit multi-
family housing development at the site earlier in the year, but Council had wanted to keep the lot
commercial. He stated it is prime commercial spot with a lot of traffic along the corridor.
Kris Cruikshank, 4502 10th Street NE, Buffalo, stated the congregation consists of business
owners and self-employed entrepreneurs. She felt that if the church were located in Albertville,
it could prompt future business endeavors.

Meeting Date: March 2, 2015
Olson stated that he felt the church is good for the community and he is glad the church is
growing, but he is bothered by both the location and isolating the parcel in the northeast corner.
Sorensen stated that for every commercial property that is not developed commercially, the
higher Albertville taxes will be.
Motioned by Sorensen, seconded by Vetsch, to approve Resolution 2015-007 denying the
request of Westbridge Community Church and Leuer-Munstertieger Properties, Inc. to
Rezone Outlot A, Heuring Meadows, from B-2, Limited Business District to P/I, Public
Institutional District. Ayes: Olson, Sorensen, and Vetsch. Nays: Hendrickson and Hudson.
MOTION CARRIES 3-2.
Council recessed the meeting at 7:58 p.m.
Hendrickson reconvened the meeting at 8:04 p.m.
2). Nelson Billboard Height Variance Request
Brixius stated the applicant is requesting a variance to allow for a 40-foot high billboard to
overcome negative elevation between the site and I-94. The Planning Commission held a public
hearing on February 10, 2015 and after hearing comments, the Commission recommended denial
of the application by a 2 to 1 vote.
Brixius stated the site allows both commercial and billboards. He stated that with a recently
approved sign ordinance amendment, the site meets the City’s spacing and setback standards.
The proposed application is requesting the sign height variance in order to allow a retail or
commercial building below the billboard.
Brixius indicated the only other billboard that has a comparable elevation is the Knechtl
billboard. The applicant claims there are practical difficulties due to the small size of the lot and
easements on the property. The applicant did receive approval of a 30-foot high billboard and
submitted an acknowledgment and waiver for obstructed sight lines due to I-94 or CSAH 19
future improvements.
The Planning Commission recommended denial of the variance finding the use is not a
reasonable use of the site, the billboard was previously approved for a 30-foot height, there is no
assurance there will be future development of the site, and the difficulty is generated by the
property owner.
Brixius indicated the Council also has a resolution before them to approve the variance with
findings.
Jacob Steen, Larkin Hoffman Attorneys, was present to represent the applicant.
Olson inquired of Steen when they could possibly see a building permit for construction of the
retail building beneath the billboard sign. Steen stated the need for the variance is to preserve the
site for retail use as well as the sightlines to I-94. Since the time of the billboard approval, Steen

M:\Public Data\City Council\Council Packet information\2015\031615\2015-03-02 CC Minutes.doc
Meeting Date: March 2, 2015
indicated the applicant has been approached by an interested party to construct a retail building.
He stated they also need to preserve sight lines to I-94 as the highway is at its highest point just
north of the site. There is an interested third party for a retail use and they cannot move forward
with discussions until or unless the site is buildable.
Olson inquired about moving the billboard further to the west and Steen indicated the highway
deck gets higher. Steen felt the current location is the best option at this time. He stated there
are issues with the number of easements on the property. Brixius stated that could set additional
restrictions on location of the billboard and Steen asked that they not restrict the location of the
billboard as the location could change depending on construction of a retail building.
Motioned by Sorensen, seconded by Hendrickson, to approve Resolution No. 2015-007
approving the request for the billboard height variance. Ayes: Hendrickson, Hudson, Olson,
Sorensen, and Vetsch. Nays: None. MOTION DECLARED CARRIED.
B. City Council
1). Committee Updates (STMA Ice Arena, Planning, JPWB, Parks, Fire Board,
etc.)
Parks Committee
Hudson stated the committee reviewed two candidates for the open position and they will be
invited to the March meeting. The Committee recommended closing the application process for
candidates.
Hudson reported 2015 park projects include receiving a bid for a shelter at Oakside Park,
Linfield Park is due for a sign, Linwood Park is scheduled for tennis and basketball court
resurfacing, Memorial Park will be irrigated by funds from the Fire Department that have been
earmarked for that project, and replacing the bituminous trail along Kalland Avenue NE with a
concrete sidewalk.
The committee also discussed Explore Your Parks Night on Friday, May 15. Nafstad stated that
it has been difficult in the past to solicit donations of food for the event and inquired if the
Council is willing to contribute a small amount of funds for the food. Couri indicated there
should not be an issue as many cities do the same for National Night Out.
Hendrickson reported that FYCC may be putting on an event in May as well.
C. Finance
1). 4th Quarter Report – Un-audited
Sorensen inquired about capital reserves and moving money from fund to fund. Lannes reported
the General Fund must maintain a balance of the State minimum before funds can be transferred.
She stated transfers will be done after the audit in April.
D. Legal

Meeting Date: March 2, 2015
Hendrickson inquired if Westbridge Church could come back with a modified plan to keep a
portion of the site as commercial. Brixius indicated they would need to go through the
subdivision process. Brixius did state there was a 10-acre lot south of the Middle School that
could be an optional site. Brixius stated that staff would not bring forward another application
that would not be successful and Nafstad indicated they could bring any conceptual changes to
Council without formal application.
E. City Clerk
1). Set Workshop for 2015 Goal Setting and Priorities
Motioned by Hendrickson, seconded by Olson, to set a workshop for Monday, March 16, 2015
at 6:00 p.m. in the City Council Chambers. Ayes: Hendrickson, Hudson, Olson, Sorensen,
and Vetsch. Nays: None. Absent: None. MOTION DECLARED CARRIED.
F. Public Works/Engineering – None
G. Building – None
H. Administration
1). Full-Time Fire Chief/Fire Marshal/Emergency Manager Position
Nafstad stated the Fire Committee had a recommendation to appoint Eric Bullen to the full-time
Fire Chief position. Nafstad thanked the members of the committee for the time and effort put
forth during the interview process. The committee felt that Bullen was the best fit for the Fire
Department. Nafstad stated that Bullen is currently an Albertville and St. Michael firefighter.
He is a law enforcement officer with the City of Minneapolis.
Bullen introduced himself to Council and felt the selection process was fair. He is excited to
begin the position.
Vetsch inquired about the amount of vacation days recommended for Bullen. Nafstad indicated
due to Bullen’s municipal experience, it is comparable to the Albertville Personnel Policy.
Vetsch inquired who would be in charge when that time is used and Nafstad indicated that the
chain of command would be followed starting with the Assistant Chief, captains, and lieutenants.
Sorensen and Olson did not feel the vacation time would be an issue and Nafstad indicated there
would be many hours of evening and weekend work as well. He did speak to Bullen about
keeping regular office hours similar to City Hall.
Nafstad indicated they are working towards a start date of April 1, there will be a swearing in
ceremony for the position and Bullen is working on a transition plan with the City of
Minneapolis. Nafstad stated Bullen has nine years in the Fire Relief Association and a member
is not fully vested until ten years. He stated they will meet with the Fire Relief Association to
discuss options relating to Fire Relief benefits at a later date.
Motioned by Olson, seconded by Sorensen, to appoint Eric Bullen to the full-time Fire
Chief/Fire Marshal/Emergency Manager position. Ayes: Hendrickson, Hudson, Olson,
Sorensen, and Vetsch. Nays: None. Absent: None. MOTION DECLARED CARRIED.

2). City Administrator’s Update
There were no questions from Council.
3). Farming of City-owned Land
Nafstad reported the City has three parcels that are City-owned and the Beaudry family has been
farming the parcels since 2004. Up until 2009, the Beaudry family was paying rent on the
parcels, but the parcels would have become taxable if the City continued to receive rent, so the
family has been farming it since 2009 rent free. If the City were to receive rent or the family to
plant a row crop rather than hay, the parcels would become taxable in the amount of
approximately $160 an acre and that would not be profitable for farming. Nafstad indicated he
has had other parties interested in farming the parcels and the City does not want to maintain
(mow) the parcels. Nafstad is looking for direction on how and to whom the City grants the
farming privileges on the parcels. Couri suggested that the farming privileges be done in a series
of several years to help the farmer recoup their investment.
Nafstad indicated that the Beaudry family does need the City’s authorization to farm the land and
will need the City to complete some form work within the next couple of weeks.
Lannes clarified that the agreement with the Beaudry family is for a single year. Hendrickson
was supportive of moving forward with the Beaudry family for the 2015 season and then

following motion(s):
MOTION TO: Approve the annual renewal of liquor licenses listed in the staff report

BACKGROUND: Each year the City of Albertville and State of Minnesota Alcohol and
Gambling Enforcement Division (AGED) must approve the renewal of liquor licenses for
establishments within Albertville. The City must verify there are no outstanding fines, City Code
violations, or delinquent taxes for each establishment. The Wright County Sheriff’s Office must
also look for liquor law violations within the last five years. Once Council has approved the
liquor renewals locally, they will be sent to the MN AGED for their approval. The liquor license
period for the upcoming year runs April 15, 2015 to April 14, 2016.

Meeting Date: March 16, 2015
KEY ISSUES:
• There are no delinquent taxes, outstanding fines, or City Code Violations for the above
establishments.
• Approval is contingent on full payment of licensee fees, proof of liquor liability
insurance, and background check by the Wright County Sheriff’s Office.
• There were two liquor license violations in 2013: Neighbors Eatery & Saloon and Hong
Thai. Hong Thai paid their administrative fine and Neighbors Eatery & Saloon has
shown proof of purchase of an identification verification system (I.D. swiper) in lieu of
their administrative fine (per Council recommendation/motion). No other violations have
occurred in the last five years.
• On-Sale Wine and Strong Beer licenses must provide proof that 60% of their sales are
contributed to food sales. The establishments that hold this license have provided the
information.
POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: It is the Mayor and City Council’s policy to
review and approve or deny liquor license renewals for establishments within Albertville.

M:\Public Data\City Council\Council Packet information\2015\031615\2015-03-16 Prairie Run Lot Bids.doc
Meeting Date: March 16, 2015
March 12, 2015
SUBJECT: LEGAL – SALE OF TAX FORFEITED LOTS 35 AND 37, BLOCK 2, PRAIRIE RUN
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the
following:
MOTION TO: Accept the high bids of Christian Builders and enter into purchase agreements
for the sale of Lot 35, Block 2, Prairie Run to Christian Builders for $41,200 and the sale of Lot
37, Block 2, Prairie Run to Christian Builders for $38,200.
BACKGROUND: In August, 2014 the City received deeds from the State of Minnesota to 17
residential properties in Prairie Run. Two of these properties are regular-sized cul-de-sac lots,
while the other 15 are small detached townhome lots. In February, the City Council authorized
the advertisement for bids for the two cul-de-sac lots, Lots 35 and 37, Block 2. City staff
advertised in the North Crow River News and the Wright County Journal Press, called the people
who had previously called the City expressing interest in the lots, and put the word out to area
builders that the City was taking bids on the lots. A minimum bid price of $35,000 was put on
each lot.
Bids were opened at 5 p.m. on March 10th. The City received two bids on each lot, as
follows:
Bidder Lot Bid Amount
Christian Builders 35 $41,200
Ziegler Custom Homes 35 $36,000
Christian Builders 37 $38,200
Ziegler Custom Homes 37 $35,100
The proceeds of the sale would be applied to the unpaid special assessments that remain
outstanding from the Prairie Run project.
KEY ISSUES:
• The City acquired these properties for $5,000 each from the State after the properties
went tax forfeit.
• All proceeds of the sale will reduce the deficit in the Prairie Run project fund.
• Both bids exceeded the minimum bid of $35,000 previously set by the City Council.
• Staff recommends accepting the bids of Christian Builders and authorizing the City to
execute the attached purchase agreements.

M:\Public Data\City Council\Council Packet information\2015\031615\2015-03-16 Prairie Run Lot Bids.doc
Meeting Date: March 16, 2015
POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: Selling the lots will return these properties to
the tax rolls and should result in the construction of two more single family homes in Albertville.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The City will apply the $79,400 in proceeds to the cost of
the lots ($10,000 total) with the remainder going to offset some of the money originally put into
this Prairie Run project by the City and not paid back when the developer defaulted on the
special assessment payments.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The City may either accept the high bid (for either or both lots)
or reject all bids. It cannot accept the low bid unless Christian Builders were deemed a non-
responsible bidder. Staff knows of no facts that would cause Christian Builders to be deemed a
non-responsible bidder.

g. Any item designated in the title commitment described in paragraph 7 below to
which Buyer does not make an Objection, also as defined in paragraph 7 below;
h. Any other exception to title which Buyer determines, in writing and in its sole
discretion, to be acceptable.
7. TITLE & EXAMINATION: Seller shall, within a reasonable time after
acceptance of this agreement, provide a title commitment (“Commitment”) issued by a national
title insurance company (the “Title Company”), certified to date to include proper searches
covering bankruptcies, state and federal judgments and liens, and levied and pending special
assessments. Buyer shall be allowed 10 business days after receipt of such Commitment for
examination of title and making any objections which shall be made in writing or deemed waived
(each, an “Objection” and collectively, the “Objections”). If any Objection is so made, Seller
shall have 20 business days from receipt of Buyer’s written title objections to notify Buyer of
Seller’s intention to make title marketable and subject only to the Permitted Exceptions within 60
days from Seller’s receipt of such written objection. If notice is given, payments hereunder
required shall be postponed pending correction of title, but upon correction of title and within 10
days after written notice to Buyer the parties shall perform this Agreement according to its terms.
If no such notice of Objections is given or if notice is given but title is not corrected within the
time provided for, Buyer may, at its sole discretion, do one or more of the following:
a. For Objections with respect to liens of a liquidated amount that were
created or assumed by, or asserted against, Seller or Seller’s predecessors in title, and that
Seller fails to pay or discharge on or before any Closing, proceed to such Closing and
withhold from the Purchase Price an amount which, in the reasonable judgment of the
Title Company, is sufficient to assure cure of the Objections. Any amount so withheld
shall be placed in escrow with the Title Company. Seller shall pay the cost and expense
to create and administer the escrow. If Seller does not cure such Objections within sixty
(60) days after such escrow is established, Buyer may then cure such Objections within a
reasonable time and charge the costs against the escrowed amount. The parties agree to
execute and deliver such documents as may be reasonably required by the Title Company
to cure such Objections. Upon cure of such Objections, any unused escrow funds shall be
refunded to Seller;
b. Waive the Objections, accept title subject to the Objections, and proceed
to such Closing, in which event such Objections shall be considered Permitted
Exceptions, and in which case the parties shall remain obligated to perform pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, with no reduction of Purchase Price; or

c. Terminate this Agreement by sending written notice to Seller. Upon
delivery of such notice of the termination of the entire Agreement, the Earnest Money
shall be refunded to Buyer, and this Agreement shall be deemed terminated.
d. If Seller provides a Commitment pursuant to this paragraph, (1) the title
examination period shall commence upon Buyer’s receipt of the Commitment and (2)
Seller shall pay only the cost of the Commitment and not the premium cost of any
insurance Buyer may choose to obtain. It is acknowledged that Buyer will be obtaining
and reviewing updated title reports for each Lot at Buyer’s expense as Buyer deems
necessary or desirable.. Whether or not Buyer provides Seller with notice of Objections
following its receipt of the initial Commitment as set forth above in this Section, Buyer
may, at its option, at or prior to Closing upon any Lot, notify Seller in writing of any
Objections to title first raised by the Title Company between (a) the effective date of the
Commitment, and (b) the Closing Date for such Lot, provided such Objection did not
arise as a result of Buyer’s actions, and provided such Objection is not a Permitted
Exception. With respect to any Objections to title set forth in such notice, if Seller does
not elect to cure such additional Objections, Buyer shall have the options set forth above
in this Section 7.
8. REAL ESTATE TAXES.
a. For each Lot purchased by Buyer hereunder, real estate taxes payable in
the year of sale shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller to the Closing Date for such
Lot. Delinquent real estate taxes shall be paid in full by Seller prior to such Closing Date.
Buyer shall accept title to the Lot subject to the lien of real estate taxes payable in the year
after Closing. Seller warrants taxes due and payable in the year of Closing for each Lot
will be NON-HOMESTEAD classification. Seller makes no representation concerning
the amount of subsequent real estate taxes.
b. Special Assessments, if any, shall be extinguished by Seller prior to
closing.
c. Seller shall pay on the Closing Date for each Lot purchased by Buyer
hereunder any deferred real estate taxes (i.e.. Green Acres, etc.) which are required as a
result of the Closing of the sale of any Lot hereunder.
9. ACCEPTANCE: Buyer understands and agrees that this Agreement is subject to
acceptance by Seller in writing.
10. INSPECTION: Buyer has the right to inspect each Lot prior to Closing upon its
purchase thereof.

11. DEFAULT: If Buyer defaults in any of the agreements herein, Seller may, as its
sole remedy available at law or in equity, choose to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Minn.
Stat. § 559.21 and, upon such termination, payments made hereunder may be retained by Seller,
including earnest money. In the event of Sellers’ default hereunder, Buyer may pursue a claim for
specific performance; provided, as to specific performance, such action must be commenced
within one-year after such right of action arises.
12. TIME OF ESSENCE: Time is of the essence in this Agreement.
13. ENTIRE AGREEMENT: This Agreement, any attached exhibits and any addenda

hereunder to Buyer not later than the date of closing of the purchase and sale of such Lot.

Seller fails to pay or discharge on or before any Closing, proceed to such Closing and
withhold from the Purchase Price an amount which, in the reasonable judgment of the
Title Company, is sufficient to assure cure of the Objections. Any amount so withheld
shall be placed in escrow with the Title Company. Seller shall pay the cost and expense
to create and administer the escrow. If Seller does not cure such Objections within sixty
(60) days after such escrow is established, Buyer may then cure such Objections within a
reasonable time and charge the costs against the escrowed amount. The parties agree to
execute and deliver such documents as may be reasonably required by the Title Company
to cure such Objections. Upon cure of such Objections, any unused escrow funds shall be
refunded to Seller;
b. Waive the Objections, accept title subject to the Objections, and proceed
to such Closing, in which event such Objections shall be considered Permitted
Exceptions, and in which case the parties shall remain obligated to perform pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, with no reduction of Purchase Price; or

c. Terminate this Agreement by sending written notice to Seller. Upon
delivery of such notice of the termination of the entire Agreement, the Earnest Money
shall be refunded to Buyer, and this Agreement shall be deemed terminated.
d. If Seller provides a Commitment pursuant to this paragraph, (1) the title
examination period shall commence upon Buyer’s receipt of the Commitment and (2)
Seller shall pay only the cost of the Commitment and not the premium cost of any
insurance Buyer may choose to obtain. It is acknowledged that Buyer will be obtaining
and reviewing updated title reports for each Lot at Buyer’s expense as Buyer deems
necessary or desirable.. Whether or not Buyer provides Seller with notice of Objections
following its receipt of the initial Commitment as set forth above in this Section, Buyer
may, at its option, at or prior to Closing upon any Lot, notify Seller in writing of any
Objections to title first raised by the Title Company between (a) the effective date of the
Commitment, and (b) the Closing Date for such Lot, provided such Objection did not
arise as a result of Buyer’s actions, and provided such Objection is not a Permitted
Exception. With respect to any Objections to title set forth in such notice, if Seller does
not elect to cure such additional Objections, Buyer shall have the options set forth above
in this Section 7.
8. REAL ESTATE TAXES.
a. For each Lot purchased by Buyer hereunder, real estate taxes payable in
the year of sale shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller to the Closing Date for such
Lot. Delinquent real estate taxes shall be paid in full by Seller prior to such Closing Date.
Buyer shall accept title to the Lot subject to the lien of real estate taxes payable in the year
after Closing. Seller warrants taxes due and payable in the year of Closing for each Lot
will be NON-HOMESTEAD classification. Seller makes no representation concerning
the amount of subsequent real estate taxes.
b. Special Assessments, if any, shall be extinguished by Seller prior to
closing.
c. Seller shall pay on the Closing Date for each Lot purchased by Buyer
hereunder any deferred real estate taxes (i.e.. Green Acres, etc.) which are required as a
result of the Closing of the sale of any Lot hereunder.
9. ACCEPTANCE: Buyer understands and agrees that this Agreement is subject to
acceptance by Seller in writing.
10. INSPECTION: Buyer has the right to inspect each Lot prior to Closing upon its
purchase thereof.

sole remedy available at law or in equity, choose to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Minn.
Stat. § 559.21 and, upon such termination, payments made hereunder may be retained by Seller,
including earnest money. In the event of Sellers’ default hereunder, Buyer may pursue a claim for
specific performance; provided, as to specific performance, such action must be commenced
within one-year after such right of action arises.

City Administrator’s Update Page 2 of 2 March 12, 2015
57th Street NE/Church of St. Albert Improvement Project: I met with St. Albert’s last week and
believe the Church desires to move forward with the project. They are waiting on the property
appraisal and approvals from the Archdiocese. The total construction cost (low bid) is
$874,613, with the City’s portion being $699,317 plus R/W and the Church portion $175,295
less R/W. Assuming St. Albert’s executes the agreement, staff will ask Council to approve the
agreement and award the project at first meeting in April. For your review, attached is draft of
the R/W and Construction agreement.
54 Street NE and Barthel Industrial Drive NE: Restoration will begin as soon as conditions
permit.
Public Works Committee: Tim and I will be setting a public works committee meeting to discuss
2015 equipment purchases/replacement and the new Public Works position.
Ditch and Pond Cleaning: Public Works crews are working to clear trees and overgrowth in
ditches and ponds. This work is typically done when time and weather permit. The focus
recently has been in the Albert Villas neighborhood.

RIGHT OF WAY AND CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT WHEREAS, The City of Albertville (“City”) desires to reconstruct and improve 57th Street, consisting of the complete reconstruction of 57th Street between the City’s Fire Hall and Main Avenue, including street widening, sidewalks, replacement of utilities, undergrounding of overhead wires, and relocation of utility poles (“57th Street Improvements”), which improvements abut the property of the Church of St. Albert located in Albertville, Minnesota (“Church”); and WHEREAS, The City desires to obtain additional permanent right of way along 57th Street and temporary construction easements from the Church; and WHEREAS, The Church desires to reconstruct its existing parking lots, construct additional parking areas, relocate driveway entrances, perform miscellaneous concrete repairs, and stripe all parking lots (“Church Improvements”); and WHEREAS, It is in the best interest of both the Church and the City to combine these two projects under one contract to obtain the best price for both parties; and NOW, THEREFORE, the City and Church agree as follows: 1. The City’s Engineer shall prepare plans and specifications for the 57th Street Improvements and the reconstruction and expansion of the Church parking lots. The plans and specifications for the Church Improvements shall be based upon the parking lot and driveway improvements shown on the attached Exhibit A. 2. Upon approval of the Church parking lot plans and specifications by the Church, and upon approval of the 57th Street plans and specifications by the City, the City shall solicit bids in accordance with Minnesota law for the 57th Street Improvements with the Church Improvements included as a bid alternate. 3. Upon receipt of bids, the City shall forward the bidding results to the Church for its review, with the City indicating the lowest responsive bid for the combined 57th Street Improvements and Church Improvements.
Agenda Page 50

4. Within 10 days of the forwarding of the bids to the Church, the Church shall confirm in writing whether it wants the City to award the Church Improvements alternate contract. If the Church desires that the City award the Church Improvements contract, the Church shall forward to the City with its written confirmation a check made payable to the City in the amount of the Church Improvements bid to be awarded, plus an additional 15% for engineering costs. 5. If the City awards the bid for the 57th Street Improvements, it shall also award the bid for the Church Improvements, provided the Church has first complied with the requirements of paragraph 4 above. If the City does not award the bid for the Church Improvements for any reason, the City shall promptly return the Church’s check to the Church. 6. If the City awards the bid for the 57th Street Improvements, the Church shall execute the permanent easement attached as Exhibit B to this Agreement and the temporary construction easement attached as Exhibit C to this Agreement. The parties agree that the damages to the Church resulting from the Church providing the City with the permanent easement shown on Exhibit B and the temporary construction easements shown on Exhibit C are $53,000. If the City awards the Church Improvements with the 57th Street Improvements, the Church shall deduct $53,000 from the amount the City is otherwise due as set out in paragraph 4 above. If the City does not award the Church Improvements the City shall pay the Church $41,000 as complete and total compensation for the granting of the permanent and temporary easements attached as Exhibits B and C within 10 days of awarding the bid. 7. If the City awards the bid for both the Church Improvements and the 57th Street Improvements, the Church hereby grants the City and its contractors the right to enter upon Church property as necessary to complete construction of the Church Improvements and 57th Street Improvements. The City shall restore disturbed areas of the Church property upon completion of construction work. 8. Upon completion of the work, the City shall forward to the Church an accounting of all costs, with a division of construction, engineering and permitting costs between the 57th Street Improvements and the Church Improvements. Construction costs shall be split based upon the quantities used for each project and contractor fixed costs such as mobilization allocated in proportion to the value of the quantities used
Agenda Page 51

on each project. Engineering and other fixed costs such as permitting fees shall be split based on each party’s share of construction costs. 9.
