The Bedford Apartments Page 2
1.Recitals. The foregoing Recitals are hereby incorporated into this Agreement as
agreements among the parties.
2.Subordination. The Governmental Entity hereby agrees that the Regulatory
Agreement is and shall at all times continue to be, subordinate, subject and inferior to the rights of
Lender under the Loan Documents and that the liens, rights (including approval and consent
rights), remedies, payment interests, priority interests, and security interests granted to
Governmental Entity pursuant to or in connection with the Regulatory Agreement are hereby
expressly acknowledged to be in all respects and at all times, subject, subordinate and inferior in
all respects to the liens, rights (including approval and consent rights), remedies, payment, priority
and security interests granted to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents and the terms, covenants,
conditions, operations and effects thereof. Notwithstanding the above, Governmental Entity may

contained in this Agreement, Lender agrees that in the event of any default by Borrower under the
Loan Documents, Governmental Entity shall be entitled to receive a copy of any notice of default

given by Lender to the Borrower.
6.Governmental Entity Notice of Default. Governmental Entity shall give Lender a
concurrent copy of each material notice (including without limitation each notice of default) given
by Governmental Entity under or with respect to the Regulatory Agreement, and agrees that
Lender, at Lender’s sole election, shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure any default
by Borrower under the Regulatory Agreement on its and/or Borrower’s behalf. Governmental
Entity hereby represents that, to the best of its knowledge, there is no current default under the
Regulatory Agreement.
7.Governmental Entity's Rights. Except as set forth in Sections 2 and 8 of this
Agreement, nothing in this Agreement is intended to abridge or adversely affect any right or
obligation of Borrower and/or Governmental Entity, respectively, under the Regulatory

long as the Loan is secured by the Property and (B) for so long as the Loan is secured by the

or remedy under the Regulatory Agreement or available at law or in equity which will or could

thereof, (ii) the collection or possession of rents or revenues from or with respect to the Property

by Borrower under the Regulatory Agreement on its and/or Borrower’s behalf. Governmental
Entity hereby represents that, to the best of its knowledge, there is no current default under the
Regulatory Agreement.

Development is to be owned, managed and operated as a "multifamily housing development," as such
term is defined in the Housing Act, and that the Development shall be operated in all respects in
conformance with the requirements and provisions of the Housing Act, for so long as any of the Bonds
remain outstanding and unpaid under the Indenture. Therefore, the Company represents, covenants and

tenants who are families or individuals with adjusted gross income not in excess of eighty percent (80%)
of the median family income as estimated by the United States Department of Housing and Urban
Development for the standard metropolitan area including the City. A tenant will continue to qualify as
such as long as he or she continues to reside in such unit notwithstanding the fact that another occupant
no longer resides in the unit because of death, divorce or disability. When a tenant leaves a unit, such unit
will be considered occupied by a qualifying tenant for purposes of this section if it is held vacant and
available for such occupancy until it is reoccupied by another tenant, other than for a temporary period
which in no event shall exceed thitiy-one (31) days, at which time the status of the new tenant is to be
determined.
The Company recognizes that the City is authorized to issue the Bonds to finance the Project only

Company represents, warrants and covenants that the Project is a "project" as described in Subdivision
l(a) of said Section 474A.047. The Company covenants, consistent with the requirements of Minnesota

that compliance with the rental rate and income requirements of this Section be monitored. The City,
Trustee or one or more agents acting on its or their behalf (the "Monitor") may issue an order of
noncompliance if the Project is found by the Monitor to be out of compliance with these requirements.
The Company shall pay a penalty to the City equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the total amount
of bonds issued for the Project utilizing bonding authority under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 474A, if the
Monitor issues an order of noncompliance. For each additional year the Project is out of compliance, the
annual penalty must be increased by one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the total amount of such bonds.
Insubstantial violations may be waived. No order of non-compliance shall become final and effective
until thirty (30) days after its dated date, and such effective date shall be further delayed if the Company
in good faith contests the validity or accuracy of the order. This Section 4A is limited in its entirety to
applicable provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 462C and 474A, but shall not limit any other
obligations of the Company under this Regulatory Agreement.

(a) Upon discovery by or notification to the City or Trustee of any default in the performance
__ 01· _observance _of_ an)' _coyenani,-agreement or_obligatio1Loith_eComp_any-s_eLfo1tlLi1LlhiLRegulat01~~--~~~-
Agreement, the City or Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the existence and nature
of such default. If the Company defaults in the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or
obligation of the Company set forth in this Regulato1y Agreement, and if such default remains uncured
for a period of 30 days after notice thereof shall have been given by the City or Trustee to the Company,
with a copy of such notice to the others (or for a longer period after such notice if such default is curable
but requires acts to be done or conditions to be remedied which, by their nature, cannot be done or
remedied within such 30-day period, and if the Company commences same within such 30-day period and
Agenda Page 56
thereafter diligently and continuously prosecutes the same to completion), then the City or Trnstee may,
declare that the Company is in default hereunder and may, in addition to remedies available under the
Indenture and Loan Agreement, take any one or more of the following steps, at its option:
(i) by mandamus or other suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, require the
Company to perform its obligations and covenants hereunder, or e1tjoin any acts or things which
may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the City or Trnstee hereunder or under the
Declaration;
(ii) have access to and inspect, examine and make copies of all of the books and
records of the Company pe1taining to the Development;
(iii) take whatever other action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable
to enforce the obligations, covenants and agreements of the Company hereunder;
(iv) to recover any monetaiy damages suffered by the City, the Trustee, or the owners
from time to time of the Bonds as a consequence of any event of default; or
(v) the Trnstee may declare a default under the Indenture, and proceed with remedies
available to it under the Loan Agreement, the Indenture and this Agreement.
The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that money damages will not be an adequate
remedy at law for a default by the Company arising from a default hereunder, and therefore the Company
agrees that the remedy of specific performance shall be available to the City or Trnstee in any such case,
but without prejudice to the availability of monetmy damage remedies. The provisions of this Section
shall not apply in the event of an involuntary noncompliance caused by fire, seizure, requisition,
condemnation or similar event, or a change in a federal law or an action of a federal agency after the date
of issuance of the Bonds, which prevents the City from enforcing the terms of this Regulatory Agreement,
but only if, within a reasonable period, either the Loan is retired or amounts received as a consequence of
such event are used to provide a residential rental project which meets the terms of this Regulatory
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such requirements shall continue to apply to the
Development subsequent to foreclosure, transfer of title by deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar event if,
at any time subsequent to such event, the obliger on the purpose investment (as defined in Section 1.148-
1 (b) of the Regulations applicable to the Code) or a related person (as defined in Section 1.103-10( e) of
said Regulations) obtains an ownership interest in the Development for federal tax purposes.
(b) The Trustee shall have the right, in accordance with this Section and the provisions of the
Indenture, without the consent or approval of the City, to exercise any or all of the City's rights or
remedies hereunder, and the City hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee attorney-in-fact for the purpose
of enforcement of this Regulatory Agreement. No delay in enforcing the provisions hereof as to any
breach or violation shall impair, damage or waive the right of any patty entitled to enforce the same or to
obtain relief against or recover for the continuation or repetition of such breach or violation or any similar
breach or violation thereof at any later time or times. The Company agrees to pay, indemnify and hold
----~tl.,,1e_Ci!x andTruste_e_harmless ____ from ___ any-_aud_iiJLrnsts,-exp_enses __ and __ fees,-including._aJLreasonabl,'"---------------
attorneys' fees which may be incurred by the City and Trustee in enforcing or attempting to enforce this
Regulatory Agreement following any event of default of the same on the patt of the Company, whether
the same shall be enforced by suit or otherwise, and the reasonable fees and expenses of Bond Counsel in
connection with any opinion to be rendered hereunder.
(c) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, the Trustee and the City shall have
the right to enforce this Regulato1y Agreement and require curing of defaults in such period as may be
11
Agenda Page 57
necessary to assure compliance with Sections 42, 142(a)(7) and 142(d) of the Code, including but not
limited to the right of the City to enforce this Regulato,y Agreement in the event tl1at any of the terms and
provisions of Sections 2 and 3 are violated whether or not any other party hereto takes action to enforce
those provisions or requires cming of any defaults related to those provisions.
(d) No remedy conferred herein or reserved to the City or Trustee is intended to be exclusive
of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and eve,y such remedy shall be cumulative and shall
be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute.
( e) If the City or Trustee has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under
this Regulatory Agreement and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or
has been determined adversely to the City, then and in eve1y such case the Company, City and Trustee
shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their
former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the City and Trustee shall continue
as though no such proceeding has been instituted.
(f) No delay or omission of the City or Trustee to exercise any right or remedy provided

Bond Counsel shall clearly state whether it addresses amendment, termination or deletion of the
covenants and restrictions hereof and shall specify the applicable paragraph of Exhibit D to be included in
the Ce1tificate of Amendment or Termination or Deletion of Covenants. Upon receipt of such request of
the Company and accompanying opinion, the City and (if any Bonds then remain outstanding) Trustee
shall execute and deliver the Ce1tificate ofTennination or Deletion of Covenants to the Company.
( d) The provisions hereof shall be deemed to be no longer in effect in the event of
noncompliance with the provisions of Sections 142(a)(7) and 142(d) of the Code and Treasury
Regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder or applicable thereto if such noncompliance is caused by
involuntary loss caused by fire, seizure, requisition, foreclosure, transfer of title by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, change in federal law or an action of a federal agency after the date of issue of the Bonds
(which change in law or action prevents the City from enforcing the requirements hereof), or
condemnation or similar events, but only if within a reasonable period a principal amount of the Bonds
equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan are paid and redeemed. To evidence an event of
the kind stated in this paragraph (d), the City, if requested by the Trustee, or other appropriate person

longer, the period that the Note (or obligations issued to refund the Note) remain Outstanding. It is
expressly agreed and understood that ce1tain provisions hereof are intended to survive the payment of the
Loan and the Note.
Notwithstanding any other prov1s10ns of this Regulatoty Agreement, this entire Regulato1y
Agreement, or any of the provisions or Sections hereof, may be terminated upon written agreement by the
Issuer, the Bank and the Borrower ifthere shall have been received an opinion of Bond Counsel that such
termination will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income under Section I 03 of the Code of
the interest on the Note.
Section 12. Events of Default: Enforcement: Limitation of Liability.
(I) Upon discovery by or notification to the Issuer or the Bank of any default in the
performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Borrower set fotth in this
Regulato1y Agreement, the Issuer or the Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of the
existence and nature of such default. If the Borrower defaults in the performance or observance of any
covenant, agreement or obligation of the Borrower set forth in this Regulatory Agreement, and if such
default remains uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after notice thereof shall have been given by the
Issuer or the Bank to the Borrower, with a copy of such notice to the others ( or for a longer period after
such notice if such default is curable but requires acts to be done or conditions to be remedied which, by
their nature, cannot be done or remedied within such 30 day period, and if the Borrower commences same
within such thitiy (30) day period and thereafter diligently and continuously prosecutes the same to
completion within 120 days), then the Issuer or the Bank may, declare that the Borrower is in default
hereunder and may, in addition to remedies available under the Subordinate Loan Agreement, take any
one or more of the following steps, at its option:
(a) by mandamus or other suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, require the
Borrower to perform its obligations and covenants hereunder, or enjoin any acts or things which
may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the Issuer or the Bank hereunder:
(b) have access to and inspect, examine and make copies of all of the books and
records of the Borrower pertaining to the Project:
(c) take whatever other action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable
to enforce the obligations, covenants and agreements of the Borrower hereunder:
(d) to recover any monetaty damages suffered by the Issuer, the Bank, or the owners
from time to time of the Note as a consequence of any event of default: or
(e) the Bank may declare a default under the Subordinate Loan Agreement, and
proceed with remedies available to it under the Subordinate Loan Agreement and this Agreement.
The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that money damages will not be an adequate
remedy at law for a default by the Borrower arising from a default hereunder, and therefore the Borrower
agrees that the remedy of specific performance shall be available to the Issuer or the Bank in any such
case, but without prejudice to the availability of monetary damage remedies. The provisions of this
11
Agenda Page 86
Section shall not apply in the event of an involuntary noncompliance caused by fire, seizure, requisition,
condemnation or similar event, or a change in a federal law or an action of a federal agency after the date
of issuance of the Note, which prevents the Issuer from enforcing the terms of this Regulatory Agreement,
but only if, within a reasonable period, either the Loan is retired and the Note redeemed, or amounts
received as a consequence of such event are used to provide a residential rental project which meets the
terms of this Regulatory Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such requirements shall continue to
apply to the Project subsequent to foreclosure, transfer of title by deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar
event if, at any time subsequent to such event, the obliger on the purpose investment (as defined in
Section 1.148-l(b) of the Regulations applicable to the Code) or a related person (as defined in Section
1.103-1 O(e) of said Regulations) obtains an ownership interest in the Project for federal tax purposes.
(2) The Bank shall have the right, in accordance with this Section and the provisions of the
Indenture, without the consent or approval of the Issuer, to exercise any or all of the Issuer's rights or
remedies hereunder, and the Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints the Bank attorney-in-fact for the purpose
of enforcement of this Regulat01y Agreement. No delay in enforcing the provisions hereof as to any
breach or violation shall impair, damage or waive the right of any party entitled to enforce the same or to
obtain relief against or recover for the continuation or repetition of such breach or violation or any similar
breach or violation thereof at any later time or times. The Borrower agrees to pay, indemnify and hold
the Issuer and the Bank harmless from any and all costs, expenses and fees, including all reasonable
attorneys' fees which may be incurred by the Issuer and the Bank in enforcing or attempting to enforce
this Regulat01y Agreement following any event of default of the same on the paii of the Borrower,
whether the same shall be enforced by suit or otherwise, and the reasonable fees and expenses of Bond
Counsel in connection with any opinion to be rendered hereunder.
(3) Notwithstanding anything else to the contra,y herein, the Bank and the Issuer shall have
the right to enforce this Regulatory Agreement and require curing of defaults in such period as may be
necessmy to assure compliance with Sections 42, l42(a)(7) and 142(d) of the Code, including but not
limited to the right of the Issuer to enforce this Regulatory Agreement in the event that any of the terms
and provisions of Sections 2 and 3 are violated whether or not any other pa1iy hereto takes action to
enforce those provisions or requires curing of any defaults related to those provisions.
(4) No remedy conferred herein or reserved to the Issuer or the Bank is intended to be
exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative
and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or by statute.
(5) If the Issuer or the Bank ( on behalf of the Holder) has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Regulatory Agreement and such proceeding has been discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Issuer, then and in every such case
the Borrower, the Issuer and the Bank shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the
Issuer and Bank ( on behalf of the Holder) shall continue as though no such proceeding has been
instituted.
(6) No delay or omission of the Issuer or the Bank to exercise any right or remedy provided
hereunder upon an event of default (except a delay or omission pursuant to a written waiver) shall impair
any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such event of default or acquiescence therein.
Eve,y right and remedy given by this Section 13 or by law to the Issuer or the Bank may be exercised
from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Issuer or the Bank, as the case may
be.

Section 13. Governing Law.
This Regulatory Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota except to the
extent that laws of the United States of America may prevail.
Section 14. Amendment; Termination.
(I) The provisions of this Regulatory Agreement shall not be amended, terminated or deleted
prior to the stated term set fotih in this Regulatory Agreement except by an instrnment in writing duly
executed by the Issuer, the Bank (if any Note principal remains outstanding) and the Borrower or their
respective successors or assigns, or in accordance with paragraph (4) of this Section 14; provided, that the
provisions of Section 3 hereof shall be terminated automatically upon expiration of the Qualified Project
Period.
Unless sooner terminated or amended or deleted from this Regulatory Agreement as in this
Section provided, each of the covenants and restrictions set fotih in this Regulatory Agreement above
shall continue in full force and effect while any Note (or bonds issued to refund the Note) remain
Outstanding, or, with respect to Section 3 during the Qualified Project Period, and shall thereupon
terminate and be of no futihcr force and effect, it being expressly agreed and understood that the
provisions of this Regulatory Agreement hereof are intended to survive the expiration and satisfaction of
any security instrnments placed of record evidencing and securing financing arrangements made for the
acquisition and renovation of the Project, if such expiration and satisfaction occurs prior to the expiration
of the Qualified Project Period.
(2) At any "Appropriate Time", as hereinafter defined, the Borrower, or its successors or
assigns, may request that the Issuer and (if any Note principal then remains outstanding) the Bank execute
and deliver to the then-owner of the Project a Cetiificate of Amendment or Termination or Deletion of
Covenants in the form attached to this Declaration as Exhibit C, which Cetiificate shall have been
previously executed by the Borrower, its successor or assign. If the Borrower's request is made at an
"Appropriate Time", the Issuer and (if the Note then remains outstanding) the Bank will execute and
deliver to the Borrower, the Certificate of Amendment or Termination or Deletion of Covenants. Any
such certification entered into by the Issuer and (if any Note principal then remains outstanding) the Bank
shall be (and it shall be so provided in the certification itself) a conclusive determination of the
amendment or the satisfaction and termination or deletion of the covenants and restrictions in this
Declaration with respect to the obligations of the Borrower and its successors and assigns under this
Regulatory Agreement, it being the intention of the Issuer that upon the execution and filing of any
amendment such covenants and restrictions shall thereafter and for all purposes be modified and amended
and that upon the granting and filing of any termination or deletion such covenants and restrictions shall
thereafter for all purposes be forever terminated or deleted from this Regulatory Agreement.
(3) It shall be an "Appropriate Time" for the Issuer's and (if any Note principal then remains
outstanding) the Bank's execution and delivery of the Cetiificate of Amendment or Termination or
----~hleletion-of:Govenants-with-respeet-to·tern1ination·rn"deletiowaMhe·expiratiowuhlre·stateu·temruf·,mch·---~-~
covenants and restrictions as set forth in this Regulatmy Agreement. Prior to such expiration of the stated
term, it shall be an "Appropriate Time" for the execution and delive1y of the Certificate of Amendment or
Termination or Deletion of Covenants only if the Borrower delivers to the Issuer and (if any Note
principal then remains outstanding) the Bank with the Borrower's request, a written opinion of Bond
Counsel addressed to the Borrower, the Issuer and (if the Note principal then remains outstanding) the
Bank to the effect that the amendment or earlier termination or deletion from this Regulato1y Agreement
of such covenants and restrictions will not adversely affect the exemption from federal income taxation of
13 Agenda Page 88
interest already received or to be received on the Note. Such opinion of Bond Counsel shall clearly state
whether it addresses amendment, termination or deletion of the covenants and restrictions hereof and shall
specify the applicable paragraph of Exhibit D to be included in the Certificate of Amendment or
Termination or Deletion of Covenants. Upon receipt of such request of the Borrower and accompanying
opinion, the Issuer and (if any Note principal then remains outstanding) the Bank shall execute and
deliver the Ce1tificate of Termination or Deletion of Covenants to the Borrower.
(4) The provisions hereof shall be deemed to be no longer in effect in the event of
noncompliance with the provisions of Sections 142(a)(7) and 142(d) of the Code and Treasmy
Regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder or applicable thereto if such noncompliance is caused by
involunta,y loss caused by fire, seizure, requisition, foreclosure, transfer of title by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, change in federal law or an action of a federal agency after the date of issue of the Note
(which change in law or action prevents the Issuer from enforcing the requirements hereof), or
condemnation or similar events, but only if within a reasonable period a principal amount of the Note
equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan are paid and redeemed. To evidence an event of
the kind stated in this paragraph ( 4), the Issuer, if requested by the Bank, or other appropriate person shall
execute and deliver a Ce1tificate of Termination of Covenants in substantially the form of Exhibit C
attached hereto upon receipt of an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that termination of this
Regulatory Agreement as a result of such event will not adversely affect the exemption from federal
income taxation of interest received or to be received on the Note. If the Note is not paid and redeemed,
either (i) any amounts received as a consequence of such event shall be used to provide a project which
meets the requirements of Sections 142(a)(7) and 142(d) of the Code and Treasmy Regulations
promulgated or proposed thereunder or applicable thereto or (ii) the Bank, or other person shall expressly
assume the obligations of the Borrower thereunder and shall further agree to be bound by and comply
with the terms of this Regulatory Agreement. The provisions of this paragraph ( 4) shall be deemed to be
inoperable, and the requirements hereof shall continue in effect, if the operation of this paragraph ( 4)
would subject the interest on the Note to federal income taxation.
(5) The provisions of this Regulatory Agreement may be amended to take into account any
additional series of refunding bonds issued to redeem the remaining outstanding Note.
Section 15. Additional Covenants of the Borrower.
(I) The Borrower hereby covenants to keep and perform faithfully all of its covenants and
unde1takings contained herein and in the Subordinate Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents, but

Mayor and Council Request for Action
November 3, 2025
SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING – REQUEST FOR HOST APPROVAL OF HOUSING
PROGRAM ON BEHALF OF GUARDIAN ANGELS OF ELK RIVER
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the
following:
MOTION TO: Adopt Resolution No. 2025-43 giving approval to a proposed Housing Program
and the issuance by the City of Becker, Minnesota of its Senior Living Revenue Notes (Engel
Haus Expansion Project), Series 2025.
BACKGROUND: The City of Albertville received a request from the Guardian Angels of Elk
River, Inc. (the “Borrower”), that the City approve its intent to request the City of Becker,
Minnesota to issue bonds under Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 462C and 462A and Section
471.656. A portion of the proceeds of the bonds will be used to finance eligible projects of the
Borrower, including but not limited to the construction of an 86-unit independent living facility
to be located at 5103 Kassel Ave. NE and the improvement of the adjacent existing 63-unit
assisted living community located at 5101 Kassel Ave. NE in the City of Albertville. The Bonds
are proposed to be issued by the Issuer in an estimated aggregate principal amount which is not
expected to exceed $40,000,000.
KEY ISSUES:
• Guardian Angels of Elk River, Inc., requests that the City of Albertville approve a
housing program which provides for the financing of the construction of an 86-unit
independent living facility to be located at 5103 Kassel Ave. NE in the City, and the
improvement of the adjacent existing 63-unit assisted living community located at 5101
Kassel Ave. NE.
• There is no budget impact on the City of Albertville, and it does not present an obligation
to the City since this is a host approval.
• As required by the Housing Programs Act, the City is holding a public hearing.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There is no budget associated with this request. These
bonds are payable solely from revenues of the Borrower and do not present an obligation of the
City. Since this is a host approval, the request does not have impact on the City’s bank
qualification status.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and
Minnesota Law require each municipality in which facilities to be financed by the bonds are
located must approve the issuance of the bonds following a public hearing, basically granting
host approval to the project.

MEMORANDUM – CITY OF ALBERTVILLE, MINNESOTA
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Tina Lannes, Finance Director
FROM: Dorsey & Whitney, LLP
DATE: November 3, 2025
RE: REQUEST FOR HOST APPROVAL OF PROPOSED HOUSING PROGRAM
AND ISSUANCE OF BONDS BY CITY OF BECKER
ON BEHALF OF GUARDIAN ANGELS OF ELK RIVER, INC., OR AN
AFFILIATE THEREOF
SUMMARY
Guardian Angels of Elk River, Inc., or an affiliate thereof (the “Borrower”), asks that the City
approve its intent to request the City of Becker, Minnesota (the “Issuer”) to issue bonds (the
“Bonds”) under Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 462C and 462A, as amended, and Minnesota
Statutes Sections 471.656, as amended. A portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used
to finance eligible projects of the Borrower, including but not limited to the construction of an
86-unit independent living facility to be located at 5103 Kassel Ave. NE and the improvement
of the adjacent existing 63-unit assisted living community located at 5101 Kassel Ave. NE in
the City of Albertville (“the Project”). The Bonds are proposed to be issued by the Issuer in an
estimated aggregate principal amount which is not expected to exceed $40,000,000. In
addition to the facilities in the City, a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used to refund
the City of Otsego Refunding Revenue Bonds (Evans Park, Inc. Project), Series 2017A, which
also financed or refinanced improvements to the Project.
Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Minnesota law require
that each municipality in which facilities to be financed by the Bonds are located must approve
the issuance of the Bonds following a public hearing, essentially granting host approval to the
project.
REQUEST
The Borrower requests that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving a
proposed housing program and the issuance of the Bonds by the Issuer for the purpose of
financing and refinancing the Project.
BUDGET IMPACT
There is no budget impact associated with this request. These Bonds are payable solely from
revenues of the Borrower and do not present an obligation of the City. Since this is a host
approval, the request does not impact the City’s bank qualification status.

Mayor and Council Request for Action
November 3, 2025
SUBJECT: PLANNING – APPROVE BNSF MINOR SUBDIVISION
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the
following for Dave Jurek of Bogart-Pederson and Associates Inc., the applicant, on behalf of the
property owner, BNSF Railway Company for PID 101-999-444100:
•Minor Subdivision
MOTION TO: Adopt Resolution No. 2025-45 approving the minor subdivision of PID 101-
999-444100 with conditions.
BACKGROUND: The application proposes to subdivide approximately 13,343 sq. ft. from an
existing railroad parcel. Staff is aware that the intent of the subdivision is to separate the land in
question and sell the land to Federated Co-op, who currently occupies the land and owns two of
the adjacent parcels.
The Planning Commission reviewed the minor subdivision and held a public hearing on at their
October 14, 2025, meeting. One comment was received that asked about potential improvements
or further development of the site. Staff noted that the current application was only for the
subdivision and that staff was unaware of any future development proposed for the site. The
Planning Commission discussed access to the site, potential future applications from Federated
Co-op, and future compliance with dimensional standards. The Planning Commission
recommends approval of the applications citing consistency with the City’s Comprehensive Plan,
zoning codes, and economic development goals.
KEY ISSUES:
•The minor subdivision will separate 13,343 sq. ft. from an approximately 34.08 acre
parcel that is zoned Right-of-Way.
•There are no particular dimensional standards (lot width, lot area) for lots zoned Right-
of-Way.
•The survey does not depict any easement proposed to be created.
•The parcel to be created will retain its current access across the railroad tracks to the
north through an existing private access agreement with BNSF that provides access to
Federated Coop.
•The minor subdivision was recommended for approval by staff and the Planning
Commission with two conditions.
•Upon approval of this minor subdivision, the applicant will plat all of their parcels into
one parcel. (The application has been submitted but is incomplete pending their
ownership of said parcel).
POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: Approval of the minor subdivision are
consistent with the City’s long range land use plan, subdivision ordinance, and zoning code.
Agenda Page 110
Mayor and Council Request for Action – November 3, 2025
Planning – BNSF Minor Subdivision Page 2 of 2
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Park dedication is required with the final plat.
Commercial subdivision or developments require 10% land dedication. 10% of the subdivided
area is 0.306 acres or 13,343 sq. ft. Cash in lieu of land dedication is determined by the City of
Albertville fee schedule. Cash in lieu of land for industrial properties is $9,020.00 per acre
subdivided. Cash in lieu of land for this site is $2,760.12.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The City Attorney has not provided any legal considerations
for this application.

Planning Commission Request for Recommendation
October 14, 2025
ACTION REQUESTED
The Planning Commission is asked to conduct a public hearing and make a recommendation to
the City Council on the Minor Subdivision.
BACKGROUND
Dave Jurek of Bogart-Pederson and Associates Inc., the applicant, has made an application on
behalf of the property owner, BNSF Railway Company for a Minor Subdivision. The minor
subdivision will create a parcel to be added to an existing adjacent parcel owned and occupied by
Federated Coop. The minor subdivision is effectively a lot line adjustment that will result in land
occupied by Federated Coop, being incorporated into their ownership and legal description.
Federated Coop has stated that they wish to combine the existing and resulting parcels under
their ownership which will require
a preliminary plat.
The property is located between
city ballfields within Central Park
and the railroad tracks (west of
Main Ave. and east of Lachmann
Ave), south of 60th St NE. The site
is part of railroad property and is
abutting Federated Coop parcels
to the east and west. The parcel to
be split from the railroad parcel is
approximately 13,343 sq. feet.
The parcel is zoned Right-of-Way.
TO: Chair Buhrmann and Members of the Planning Commission
FROM: Jenni Faulkner, Consultant Planner
TJ Hofer, Consultant Planner
AGENDA ITEM: Minor Subdivision for BNSF Railway Company for PID 101-
999-444100.
HEARINGS Minor Subdivision for railroad property within PID 101-999-
444100 and described as being located within the Northeast
Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of Section 1, Township 120,
Range 24, Albertville, Wright County, MN; being a portion of
the same property described in Warranty Deed filed in 1882 in
Book 5 pages 621 and 622.
Agenda Page 115
Planning Commission Request for Recommendation – October 14, 2025
Planning – BNSF Minor Subdivision Page 2 of 3
The site is currently used for part of a drive aisle, yard, and outdoor storage for Federated Coop.
The use is non-conforming.
Splitting this lot from the larger railroad right-of-way parcel will allow it to be combined with
adjacent Federated Coop parcels in an effort to bring their site into conformance and
consolidate/clarify their ownership in their parcels. Attached is a draft of the preliminary plat that
will be forthcoming after this Minor Subdivision is approved.
REVIEW
Minor Subdivision Review
Minor subdivision are allowed when:
In the case of a request to divide a portion of a lot where the division is to permit the adding
of a parcel of land to an abutting lot so that no additional lots are created and both new lots
conform to zoning ordinance lot size minimum standards.
In the case of a request to divide a lot from a larger tract of land and thereby creating no
more than two (2) lots. To qualify, the parcel of land shall not have been part of a
subdivision within the last five (5) years.
As the property has not been previously platted, and is less than 10 acres in total area, the process
for processing this minor subdivision follows that of a preliminary plat.
Dimensional Standards
There are no particular dimensional standards (lot width, lot area) for lots zoned Right-of-Way.
A condition requiring the applicant to rezone the parcel to “Federated PUD (B-3)” at the time of
platting the entire Federated Coop properties is recommended.
Easements
The survey does not depict any easement proposed to be created. Drainage and utility easement
will be required when the parcel is platted with adjacent Federate Coop parcels.
Access
The parcel to be created will retain its current access. There is a private access agreement with
BNSF that provides access to Federated Coop across the railroad tracks to the north.
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that Chair Buhrmann and Members of the
Planning Commission consider the following:
MOTION TO: Recommend approval of the application for a Minor Subdivision for railroad
property within PID 101-999-444100 and described as being located within the Northeast
Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of Section 1, Township 120, Range 24, Albertville, Wright

City Administrator’s Update
October 30, 2025
GENERAL ADMINISTRATION
Absentee Voting for STMA Levy Election: Absentee voting for the November Election continues
through Monday, November 3. Residents can absentee vote at the STMA District Office.
STMA Levy Voting on Election Day: On November 4, the polling location for the STMA Levy
Election is the STMA Middle School West, 11343 50th Street NE. The polls will be open from 7
am to 8 pm.
Planning Commission Vacancy: A Special Council Workshop was held on October 20 prior to
the Council meetings for the first of two Planning Commissioner interviews. The second
interview is scheduled for 6:45 pm prior to the November 3 Council meeting.
Veterans Day: A reminder that City Offices are closed on Tuesday, November 11 in observance
of Veterans Day.
Truth-in Taxation: The City’s Truth-in Taxation hearing is scheduled for 6:15 pm on Monday,
December 1, 2025, prior to the regular Council meeting.
Subordination Agreements: Included on the consent agenda is a resolution approving and
authorizing the execution of two subordination agreements. In December of 2010, the City
issued bonds on behalf of Albertville Leased Housing Associates III, LP (the “Borrower”) who
used the proceeds of the Bonds to finance the construction of the Albertville Meadows
apartments. Minnesota law requires that for these kinds of housing bonds, a regulatory
agreement be entered into by the City, the Borrower, and the Trustee for the bonds. The
agreement is recorded against the facility and establishes a minimum time period that the
facility must meet certain affordability requirements. The City entered into two regulatory
agreements related to this financing, one for senior bonds and one for subordinate bonds. The
Borrower is seeking a loan from Colliers Mortgage (which will be assigned to Fannie Mae) and
the Borrower will use the proceeds of this loan to pay off the outstanding bonds. Even though
the bonds will be paid off, the term of the regulatory agreement runs until December 20, 2025.
Fannie Mae requires that the City subordinate its interest in the regulatory agreement to
Fannie Mae. Because this is a conduit financing and the Bonds are paid off, there is no risk to
the City for the City to subordinate its interest under the Regulatory Agreement. The City’s
Bond Counsel, Taft, has reviewed the agreements.
Custodian/Building Maintenance Positions: Staff is working to fill this position.
Code/Zoning Enforcement: The City is working on several properties regarding zoning
ordinance and/or nuisance ordinance violations. Generally, the violations include outdoor
storage of vehicles, materials, and/or equipment, and typically include junk accumulation and
illegal structures.
