ITEM 2 The minutes of the April 21, 1997, Housing and Redevelopment Authority meeting were approved as presented. ITEM 3 Mr. Erickson presented a resolution authorizing the condemnation of the Tuma residence located at 20845 Howland Avenue. He stated the City is acting as the agent in acquiring the property on behalf of the Dakota County Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA). The Executive Director, Mark Ulfers, has offered funding up to $100,000 to acquire the property. If the acquisition is successful, the house would be raised and the property would become green space for Windsor Plaza. Councilmember Sindt asked if the property qualifies for relocation funds. Mr. Erickson replied that Mr. Lee Smith is under contract as the relocation agent. The property owner is eligible for up to $22,500 for relocation and moving expenses. Councilmember Johnson asked if more than one appraisal will be used to determine market value. Mr. Erickson stated that consistent with the City Council's long standing policy, the Dakota County Assessor's market value will be used. An appraisal of the property will be required as part of the condemnation process. Recently, in a similar situation in another area of the City, the independent appraisal established a value lower than the County Assessors. 97.7 Motion was made by Johnson, seconded by Mulvihill to approve Resolution No. 97 -5 authorizing condemnation of property located at 20845 Howland Avenue. Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Zaun, Sindt, Mulvihill, Holberg, Johnson.
