REPORT TO THE C�MMI�IOMEiis DATE February 27, 1990
REBAROIMA UTHORIZATION TO APPROVE FUNDING TO PURCHASE THE STATE
FAIR CAROUSEL AND EXECUTE FUNDING �AND OPERATING
AGREEMENTS WITH OUR FAIR CAROUSEL, MINNESOTA LANDMARKS,
AND BCE DEVELOPMENT. �
Background
On December 7, 1988 the City of Saint Paul "City" entered into an
agreement with Our Fair Carousel, Incorporated "OFC" to guarantee up- �to
$1, 300, 000 in oans to purchase the State Fair Carousel and thereby
prevent it fro being sold at a New York auction house. At that time OFC
had until Janu ry 1, 1990 to raise the fund necessary to pay off the
loan. The Cit took a 50� ownership interest in the Carousel and has
been monitorin OFC operations and funds.
By late Decemb r 1989, OFC had raised all but about $350,000 necessary to
repay the bank loan� and approached the City looking for further
participation. Minnesota Landmarks emerged as an interested party to
assist OFC in undraising which gave the City confidence to proceed.
On December 28, 1989 the City extended the guaranty until February 28,
1990 and autho ized staff to enter into negotiations on funding and
operating agre ments with Minnesota Landmarks, OFC, and BCE Development
which would as ure that the carousel is adequately funded, managed, and
maintained in own Square Park. While those agreements remain to be
formally execu ed, negotiations have produced the following roles and
responsibiliti s for the parties.
THE CITY
• Provide t rough the HRA, $350, 000 to purchase the carousel
• Ownership of the Carousel
• Approve a ual operating permit. Includes annual review of budget,
operating and fundraisinq plans. .
• Approve T wn Square Park construction and installation plans.
• Fund rest ration of Town Square Park over and above $250, 000
commitmen of OFC
• Retain th ee positions on OFC's Board

• Managemen assistance to OFC to include business planning, budget
preparati n assistance, fundraising assistance, and volunteer
coordinat on -
• Retain tw positions on OFC's Board
, ����3/
OFC. Inc.
. • Provide hrough donations, approximately $900, 000 for _acquisition
and inst llation of the carousel
• Install he carousel in Town Square Park
• Fundrais ng for carousel restoration, operating reserve and
repaymen of HRA funds.
• Operatio of carousel and gift kiosk, ten year term with eleventh
year rev ew
• Restorat on of carousel
� Fund Tow Square Park restoration up to $250, 000 to escalate with
the cons ruction cost index
BCE Develo me t
• Fund con truction costs associated with preparing the carousel site
in Town quare Park
• Fund To Square park restoration should they wish carousel removed
or struc ural or safety problems require its removal.
Analysis
Staff believe that issues regarding the funding, management and
maintenance o the carousel have been adequately addressed. The
remaining pot ntial liability to the City lies in the cost to restore
Town Square P rk (less up to $250, 000 available from OFC) should the City
determine the carousel operation is not feasible.
Public intere t in the carousel lies in its historical significance to
the citizens f Saint Paul, its artistic beauty and its potential ability
to serve as a attraction to retail and other entertainment activity in
downtown.
Re ested act on
OFC, Inc. , Mi nesota Landmarks and BCE Development request that the HRA
participate i the carousel project by providing $350,000 ( Ox payable in
ten years) to fund the acquisition of the carousel so that it can be
operated in T wn Square Park.
Staff seek authority to approve funding in the amount of $350, 000 to
purchase the arousel and execute funding and operating agreements with
the City, OFC Minnesota Landmarks and BCE Development.
Staff recomme ds approval of the attached resolution.
