FROM: John Sutter, Community Development Director
DATE: June 2, 2022
TO: Anne Norris, Executive Director (for June 7 EDA meeting)
SUBJECT: Presentation and discussion regarding a proposal by MWF Properties for
redevelopment of 7000 57th Ave. N.
The office building at 7000 57th Ave. N. was built in 1976, has a 2022 estimated market value
of $1,035,000 and is currently listed for sale at $1,500,000:
EDA STAFF REPORT
Proposed Redevelopment
7000 57th (Crystal Square)
MWF Properties
Page 2 of 3
MWF Properties, an experienced apartment developer with recent projects across the Twin
Cities, is proposing a 60-unit apartment building on the site.
MWF’s preliminary unit mix would be as follows:
Bedrooms Maximum Household Income
& Baths 30% AMI 50% AMI 60% AMI Totals by bedrooms and baths
1 / 1 3 12 0 15 (25%) - 1 bedroom, 1 bath
2 / 2 3 24 3 30 (60%) - 2 bedrooms, 2 baths
3 / 2 0 0 10 10 (17%) - 3 bedrooms, 2 baths
4 / 2 0 0 5 5 (8%) - 4 bedrooms, 2 baths
Totals 6 units 36 units 18 units
at max. (10%) at (60%) at (30%) at
HH income 30% AMI 50% AMI 60% AMI
The largest source of funds would be federal Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) which
are awarded by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). To be considered for 2023
construction, MWF must submit their LIHTC application to MHFA by July 15 and the tax credit
awards would be announced in Dec. 2022 - Jan. 2023.
MWF has estimated the preliminary sources, uses and financing gap for the project:
$18,137,000 Sources - 19,396,458 Uses = 1,259,458 Financing Gap
To help close the anticipated financing gap and maximize the project’s LIHTC score at MHFA,
MWF is asking the EDA to discuss its willingness to provide local funding through a Housing
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) district. Staff asked our TIF consultant, Ehlers and Associates,
to estimate the present value of TIF assistance for 10 and 15-year district durations and
market-rate, current 4d and proposed 4d* property tax classifications:
*The developer proposes to classify the property as 4d, which would be consistent with The
Cavanagh and the proposed Sand Companies project. Currently, any qualifying property
can apply for and receive 4d classification and there is no local say in the matter. The
Legislature’s conference committee tax bill (“proposed 4d”) would dramatically reduce the
property taxes paid by 4d properties so that, for the MWF project, they would pay taxes
only a little higher than what is paid by the existing office building. However, the tax bill also
contains a provision requiring city approval for any new 4d classifications, meaning that the
city could choose not to approve 4d classifications for any properties not already classified
as such. If the tax bill becomes law, staff and the City Council will need to develop a 4d
policy consistent with Council goals.
Page 3 of 3
The maximum duration of a housing TIF district is 26 years. Based on other projects, Ehlers
suggests that a 15-year duration might be appropriate for this project. For the Sand
Companies project, in June 2021 the EDA gave preliminary (nonbinding) approval for a 10-
year TIF district. For the MWF project, a 10-year TIF duration would reduce the $1,259,458
financing gap by $375,000.
Please note that the developer has not submitted a formal TIF application but this would be
required prior to any EDA or City Council action to create a TIF district.
In the meantime, the developer needs to know whether they can include any sort of proposed
TIF in their LIHTC application to MHFA. This would need to be a resolution similar to the
attached example adopted by the EDA in June 2021 for the Sand Companies project. Because
the LIHTC application deadline is July 15, the June 21 meeting will be the only opportunity for
the EDA to consider such a resolution. Please note that the resolution would be conditioned on
the project receiving LIHTC and not binding upon the EDA/city even if LIHTC are awarded.
QUESTIONS FOR EDA DISCUSSION ON JUNE 7:
What are your thoughts in general about creating a TIF district to assist this project?
What general level of assistance would you support? (10 years?)
Are you comfortable considering a resolution on June 21?
Representatives from MWF will be attending the June 7 EDA meeting virtually or in-person to
answer questions.

WHEREAS, Developer intends to apply for Low Income Housing Tax Credit financing

including the application fee and escrow deposit, staff is authorized to prepare a Tax
Increment Financing Plan (“TIF Plan”) for a tax increment financing district qualified

assistance, subject to the procedures under state law for the establishment of the
tax increment district and the grant of tax increment financing assistance, for
consideration by the EDA and City Council; and
3. The TIF Plan preparation authorized by this resolution shall be predicated upon the
award of Tax Credits for the Project, and if Developer has not secured an allocation
of Tax Credits for the Project by February 1, 2022, then the support for the Project
expressed by this resolution shall expire and be no longer in effect; and
Page 2 of 2

Dear City Council,
The Crystal Frolics would like your assistance for our City celebration this year. It will
be held July 28 - 31. We invite all of you to attend.
We would like to close 47th Ave N east of Welcome Ave. (runs between the CenturyLink
building & our “super” field and dead ends at the Robbinsdale Public Works facility) for
the entirety of the weekend. We will use it part of the time for City vehicle & Frolics
volunteer parking. We will also be using this section of road on Saturday afternoon for
the waterball competition hosted by the WMFRA.
We plan to have fireworks on both Friday and Saturday nights (July 29 & 30) at 10:00
p.m. That portion of 47th would be included in the safety zone. Also, we need the
assistance of the Police and Fire Departments to ensure a safe display (we will also
have 2 security personnel at the set-up site).
We would also like to close 46th Ave N between Welcome Ave N and Vera Cruz Ave N
for the entire weekend during Frolics hours for volunteer parking and police access. The
houses in that section will still have access to their homes during that time. We will have
someone monitoring the gate during high traffic times.
We also request that Public Works put out “No Parking” signs to allow parking on only
one side of the street throughout the neighborhood. This would include one block of
handicapped parking signs on Welcome Ave N south of the park.
Thank you, in advance, for your cooperation and that of the city staff.
Sincerely,
Lynn Haney, President

Re: Frolics Fireworks Permit Approval
Dear Honorable Mayor and City Council,
West Metro Fire-Rescue District prevention staff has reviewed the permit application submitted by Hollywood Pyrotechnics Inc., and
it is approved with the comments below for the July 29-30, 2022 night displays, or the rain date of July 31, 2022. The 3 inch max
shells are acceptable per code per the site map provided. Multi-shot cakes are allowed, but there will be no large fan type cake
fireworks. We had concerns with the large fan type cakes fireworks in 2019.
West Metro Fire-Rescue District staff has ensured compliance with NFPA 1123, 1126 and the 2020 Minnesota State Fire Code which
are the standard for fireworks displays. West Metro Fire-Rescue District Staff will be on site both evenings of the shoot to ensure
compliance during set up and the shoot, as well as having fire suppression crews on standby until the "all clear" is given.
The following items will be required the day and the evening of the shoot:
1.Fencing is required for the firework safety lines prior to the crews setting up the displays. The Frolic's committee shall hire
2 security guards to keep anyone from jumping the fences between the outfield fence and the border fence to the
Robbinsdale site.
2.The City of Crystal will provide barricades to close off part of 47th Ave, east of Welcome, while there are fireworks in the
area. This is a dead end and about a block long.
3.Ensure that no portable bathrooms, tents or other activities will be in the secured fence area.
4.We have approval to gain access to the Robbinsdale City building to check for any hot spots after the fireworks display.
We look forward to working with Hollywood Pyrotechnics Inc. to make sure this year's Frolic's fireworks celebrations are exciting
and safe shows for everyone to enjoy.
Sincerely,
Shelby Wolf
Deputy Fire Marshal

4824 – 56th AVENUE NORTH – REZONING APPLICATION
PAGE 1 OF 3
___________________________________________________________________________
FROM: Dan Olson, City Planner
___________________________________________________________________________
TO: Anne Norris, City Manager (for June 7 Meeting)
DATE: June 2, 2022
RE: Consider second reading of an ordinance rezoning the property at 4824 -
56th Avenue North and adoption of a resolution approving summary
language of the ordinance for publication
A.BACKGROUND
The City of Crystal Economic Development Authority (EDA), owner of the vacant
property at 4824 – 56th Avenue North, is proposing to rezone the property from
Commercial to Low Density Residential (R-1) so that a new two-family dwelling can be
constructed on the property. This dwelling type is a permitted use due to the large size
and width of this lot.
Notice of the May 9 public hearing was published in the Sun Post on April 28, mailed to
owners and renters within 500 feet (see attachment A), and posted to the Twin Oaks
and Skyway neighborhoods on Nextdoor. A sign was also posted on the property.
At the May 9th Planning Commission public hearing, the Commission unanimously
recommended approval of the rezoning. No one from the public provided comments on
the rezoning.
On May 17 the Council approved first reading of the rezoning ordinance.
On June 7 the Council is asked to approve second reading and adoption of the
rezoning ordinance and also a resolution for a summary publication of the ordinance.

B. PROPERTY REZONING
Existing use
The 19,387 sq. ft. (0.45 acres) property is vacant. Previously a single-family home
existed on the property, but it was demolished in 2007. The property was rezoned from a
residential to a commercial zone in 1971 in anticipation of a n office development that did
not materialize.
Adjacent uses
The following are the existing land uses and zoning districts surrounding this property:
• North – Single family homes zoned R-1
• East – Barber shop, zoned Commercial
• West – Four-plex apartment building, zoned R-1
• South – Across 56th Avenue N, single family homes zoned R-1
6.3
4824 – 56th AVENUE NORTH – REZONING APPLICATION
PAGE 3 OF 3
Proposed use
The EDA is proposing to sell the property for construction of a two-family dwelling, which
is a permitted use.
C. RECOMMENDED FINDINGS
The following are the relevant criteria for approval of a property rezoning in city code
section 510.29.
1. The rezoning conforms to the city’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan.
Findings: The property is guided Low Density Residential (LDR) in the city’s
Comprehensive Plan. On September 13, 2021, the Planning Commission
adopted resolution 2021-03 which determined that the sale of the property
for a two-family dwelling was in conformance to the Comprehensive Plan.
2. The rezoning is in conformance to the UDC, including the purpose and intent of
the Low Density Residential district (R-1).
Findings: With a two-family home the density would be four units per gross
acre, which meets the allowable density of no more than six units per
gross acre in the R-1 district.
D. REQUESTED ACTION
At the May 9, 2022 Planning Commission meeting, the Commission recommended
approval of the rezoning to Low Density Residential (R-1) by a vote of 8 to 0 (one
member absent).
City Council actions requested:
1. Second reading and adoption of the rezoning ordinance
2. Adoption of the resolution approving summary publication

SUBJECT: Replacement of Dishwasher at the Crystal Community Center
The capital budget includes funds to replace the dishwasher in the commercial kitchen at the
Crystal Community Center. The replacement is scheduled for 2023, however, the 20-year old
dishwasher is failing now. The on-demand heater stopped working earlier this year, but even
with the repair the technician was not confident it will last much longer.
A 2022 project to replace windows in the community center came in under budget, with a
savings of nearly $200,000. Staff proposes using this savings to purchase the dishwasher one
year earlier than planned.
Quotes received for this project are as follows:
•TriMark $ 27,190.52
•Boelter Premier $ 28,859.99
•Culinex $ 31,810.91
Staff recommends approval of the attached resolution entering into an agreement with Trimark,
in the amount of $ 27,190.52; for replacement of the dishwasher in the commercial kitchen at the
Crystal Community Center.
