Lot purchase proposal from Day Construction
FROM: Dan Olson, City Planner
DATE: July 16, 2015
TO: Anne Norris, Executive Director (for July 20 EDA meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider tentative acceptance of proposal by Day Construction for the lot
at 4553 Yates Avenue North
Day Construction has submitted a proposal to purchase the lot at 4553 Yates Avenue North.
The lot price is $45,000. Day Construction is a state -licensed residential building contractor
with no enforcement actions.
Attached are a 2012 aerial photo, builder's proposal form, and preliminary site and house
plans for a two story home. The house would have approximately 1,659 finished square feet
with an open living -dining -kitchen area, three bedrooms and three bathrooms. It would also
have unfinished square footage on the lower level, with an option to have it finished with
additional bedrooms, a bathroom, laundry room or family room. The builder does not yet have
a buyer for the house.
Day Construction has not previously submitted a purchase proposal to the EDA, and has only
constructed one home (the EDA prefers builders who have constructed at least three homes).
They have renovated homes in St. Paul, Minneapolis, Golden Valley, and Fridley, Staff has
visited the home recently constructed by Day Construction in Minneapolis, and found it to be of
good quality (photo of the home is attached). Staff has also contacted the Cities of Golden
Valley and Fridley and found only one permit still outstanding. Further research is being
completed on this permit, and staff will report the findings at the ECA meeting on July 20.
The required public hearing would be scheduled if the EDA gives tentative acceptance of the
proposal.
REQUESTED EDA ACTION: EDA tentative approval of the purchase proposal with Day
Construction for the EDA lot at 4553 Yates Avenue North.

Dan,
Enclosed please find an RFP for the City owned lot at 4553 Yates Ave N.
We are proposing to construct a two story home per the enclosed design. The home
would feature a two car attached garage, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, an open
living space arrangement, and will be an attractive addition to the neighborhood. We
have reviewed the criteria set forth by the Crystal EDA in the Request for Proposal for the
site and have determined that the proposed structure will meet the desired criteria.
Day Construction has been in the residential construction business since 2011, and it's
members have been involved in the residential construction industry for approximately ten
years. Our past projects have included numerous kitchens, bathrooms, basements,
additions, as well as rehabbing and selling multiple distressed properties. We have thus
far mainly focused on projects involving existing homes, but are beginning to move into
the new construction industry. We have constructed one new home, as indicated in the
completed RFP, at 2501 James Ave N in Minneapolis. While our background doesn't
precisely meet the requirements set forth by the City, we hope that the City can look
favorably upon our experience as a residential contractor and approve our proposal to
construct a home at 4553 Yates Ave N.
Sincerely,
Matthew Day
President, Day Construction LLC
PROPOSALFORM
PROPOSAL TO THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF CRYSTAL
4553 YATES AVENUE NORTH
CHECK ONE:
BUILDER OFFERS $45,000 TO PURCHASE THIS LOT
BUILDER OFFERS $500 FOR A SIX-MONTH OPTION TO PURCHASE THIS LOT FOR $45,000
This proposal is not a purchase agreement or other binding contract. At this time, the Builder is submitting a proposal to
purchase this lot and build a new single family house in accordance with the RFP Guidelines, or is requesting a six-month
option for same.
If a builder's proposal is tentatively accepted by the EDA board, then EDA staff would work with the Builder to determine
the specific house plan and present it at the next EDA meeting. If the EDA board gives final approval at that time, the
Builder would sign a Purchase & Redevelopment Agreement and provide $2,000 earnest money for the lot. Only after such
an Agreement is signed would a binding contract exist between the EDA and the Builder.
Builders may purchase a 6 -month option on a lot for $500, renewable for an additional 6 months for an additional $500.
The option provides the builder with exclusive rights to purchase the lot and build a house subject to the normal EDA
process, requirements and guidelines. As a condition of the option, the builder must list the lot with a to -be -built house on
the MLS for the duration of the option. The number of options is limited: No builder may have options on more than 10%
of the EDA's lots, and no more than 50% of the EDA's lots may be under option at any time.
