The informational session included a panel with the Mayor, EPA, Mn/DOT, Ramsey County Parks and Recreation, GSA, Army, Jones Lang LaSalle, and the Army. Each representative provided an update of their work related to TCAAP, and the audience was provided an opportunity to ask question. Mr. Legare from the GSA presented a map representing the potential three step process to sell and transfer the property, which includes the environmental remediation component. The map will be made available on the GSA's website at ww-w.auctx.o .. .co: . The GSA did not have the Invitation for Bid (IFB) available at the conference for review, though they anticipate releasing it within the next 30 days. The auction would then follow approximately 30 days after the IFB is released,which is likely to be the end of August. The TCAAP auction had been tentatively scheduled for the last part of June; however,the GSA has pushed the auction back to the end of July or early August. Mr. Legare indicated that the auction date will largely depend on the results and interest expressed at the conference. Ramsey County Park and Open Space Requests Greg Mack is continuing to work with the MPCA regarding environmental remediation requirements for Ramsey County's TCAAP park and open space land requests. He is also working with the GSA to obtain an access agreement to the TCAAP site for further investigation. \\Ahdocs1\ah\AHdata\Planning\Community Development\TCAAP\Planning-Public Auction\TCAAP Updates\062810-CC Memo- TCAAP update.doc Page 1 of 1
