Dale Street Redevelopment Interim City Manager Trudgeon recognized inclusion of a revised Attachment B, entitled "Dale Street Redevelopment — Summary of Proposals dated October 16, 2013; noting that the difference was in the second column clarifying additional fi- nancial assistance and waiver of fees in response to questions regarding waiver of park dedication fees, with that line now removed; as well as changes to any city subsidy reflected accordingly. Chair Maschka noted the main topic for tonight being the Dale Street Redevelop- ment and the three proposals recently received; with the HRA seeking feedback from the City Council before the HRA pursued any ideas. Chair Maschka advised that the HRA's intent was to select someone by the November 2013 HRA meet- ing if feasible. Having attended all neighborhood sessions, Councilmember McGehee opined that she found the Greater Minnesota Housing Corporation (GMHC) best represented the wishes expressed by the neighborhood and most closely matched the wishes of the community with a housing product not currently available, and provided a new enterprise or process for Roseville to try. Councilmember McGehee opined that the other proposals and their many scenarios came back wanting more density and without adequate parking for an owner-occupied product. Councilmember McGehee noted the good participation from the community for all three sessions, with interested engagement overall; and opined that she was very happy that the GMHC proposal so closely aligned itself with those fully-expressed interests from residents.
