To the Honorable Mayor and Members
of the Council of the City of Saint Paul
and City Comptroller of the City of
Saint Paul
Re: Early Land Acquisition Contract
relating to Summit-University
Urban Renewal Area.
Gentlemen: '�^
This letter is being written for the purpose of once
again calling your attention as officers of this City with respect
to the commitment which you are making on behalf of the City by
assuming the responsibility to bear any loss that might arise as
a result of such early land acquisition in the event that the
property, to be acquired is not used for urban renewal purposes
because the urban renewal plan for the project is not approved
by the Federal Government or such plan is amended to omit any of
the early acquired property or if the project were abandoned for
any reason.
The full extent of the City' s commitment which contem-
plates reimbursement of the Federal Government "on demand" for
"any such loss sustained by the United States under the aforesaid
loan, which u.ndertaking and agreement shall be assignable (from
the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Saint Paul
to the Federal Government) to the United States of A.merica upon its
request. " (Emphasis supplied) (Parenthetical insert) , is to be
found in paragraph number 4, page 4, of the proposed"Cooperation''
Agreement Respectin.g Loan Under Section 102(a) of Title I , Housing
Act of 194g, As Amended to Undertake Redevelopment Proj�ect
Activities in Summit-University Urban Renewal Area" .

the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Saint Paul
as distinguished from the City' s commitment and undertaking under

• To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the Council of
the City of Saint Paul and City �
Comptroller of the City o�
Saint Paul -2- May 28, 1968
the proposed "Cooperation Agreement Respecting Loan Under Section
102(a) of Title I, Housing Act of 194g, As Amended to Undertake
Redevelopment Project Activities in Summit-University Urban
Renewal Area" , is to be found at paragraph 3, page 4, of the
proposed "Cooperation Agreement Respecting Summit-University
Urban Renewal Area Project Minn. R-47" , said paragraph number
3 reading as follows :
"3. The City and Authority agree with
respect to the City' s undertakings under the
Cooperation A reement Respecting Loan Under
Section 102(a� of Title I, Housing Act of
194g, as amended, To Un.dertake Redevelopment
Project Activities In Summit-University Urban
Renewal Area, dated , 1g68,
between the Authority and the City respecting
repayment upon demand of any loss sustained
by the United States under said Section
102(a) loan, that in the event of such demand
for repayment the Authority shall assist in
the financing of the Project by a cash con-
tribution from the Redevelopmen.t Project Fund
Reserve �in. the amount of �1, 132,74J_. 00 and
the further amount of �3,400, 000. 00 by issu-
ance of Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Bonds. In order to assure performance of
its undertakings under this Paragraph, the
Authority further agrees to maintain
Redevelopment Project Fun.d Reserves including
any surplus accruing to said Reserve in the
calendar year 1968, or subsequent years , in
� an amoun.t not less than �1, 132, 741. 00, and
to make no expen.diture from such Reserve which
would reduce the amoun.t thereof below
�1 , 132,741. 00 without the consent of the
Council of the City by resolution made and
provided for. The City agrees , in the event
, of approval of the issue of Housing and
. Redevelopment Authority Bonds to consent
to the levy by the Authority, as authorized
� in Section 28, Chapter 487, Laws of Min.nesota
lg4'7, Subdivision 6, of a tag on all real and
personal property in the City not to exceed, .
together with all other taxes levied by the
Authority un.der said Section, one and one-
tenth mill in each year, to pay debt service
and amortization of said Bonds. "
, I
To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the Council of
the City of Saint Paul and City
Comptroller of the City of
Saint Paul -3- May 28, 196s
While it would appear extremely remote that the Federal
Government would not approve the Summit-University Urban Renewal
Area Project M.inn. R-4'7 at least to the extent of tentative
commitments with respect to such project (approximatin.g
�12, 000,000. 00) as heretofore represented to the City by per-
sonnel of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City
of Saint Paul and, therefore, additionally, it would appear
extremely� remote that the Federal Government would ever require
the City to repay the aforementioned loan, we feel you should be
aware at least of the possibility of such an occurrence. If the
Federal Government were to require repayment of such loan in
addition to the City' s commitment o� issuance of its urban
renewal bonds in an amount approximating �2,866, 370.00 and the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Saint Paul ' s
commitment of �3, 400,000. 00 through the iasuance of Housing and
Redevelopment Authority �of the City of Saint Paul ' s bonds and
contribution from the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the
City of Saint Paul ' s project fund reserve in an amount approximating
�1, 132,741. 00, there would also be required of the City Coun.cil of
the City of Saint Paul consent to the levy of said Authority as
authorized by Section 28, Chapter 487 , Laws of Minnesota for 1947,
Subdivision 6, a tax on all real and personal property in the City
not to exceed, together with all other taxes levied by the Authority
under said Section, one and one-tenth mill in each year, to pay
debt service and amortization of said bonds. This, then, would�
mean that the amounts heretofore available from the said Authority
�to pay the interest on the City' s urban renewal bonds for the
first three years of the life of such bonds would, for a period
of not less than 20 years , be un.available.
We feel it is incumbent upon our office to reiterate an.d
reemphasize to you as City of�icials the effect of the City' s commit-
ment with respect to the contemplated loan by the Federal Government
for early land acquisition purposes remote of the calling of such
loan by the Federal Govern.ment for payment by the City may appear
at the moment.
