MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 24, 2010
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: James Lehnhoff, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: TCAAP Reuse and Public Sale Update
General Service Administration(GSA)Update
The General Service Administration, on behalf of the US Army, hosted the second TCAAP
bidders' conference on June 24 at the Bishop Henry Whipple Building at Fort Snelling. 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.
