3.0 STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />3.1 Staff is recommending that the City support the application to provide the Mounds View <br />School District with the necessary funds to determine the level of contamination at 2959 <br />Hamline Avenue. <br />3.2 To facilitate the redevelopment of the Mounds View School District site proper <br />environmental characterization is necessary. MN DEED grants must be supported and <br />applied for by statutory or home rule charter cities, counties, housing and redevelopment <br />authorities, economic development authorities, or port authorities. Therefore, the City of <br />Roseville would be making the application on behalf of the Mounds View School District. <br />3.3 Redevelopment of the site will be a benefit to the City. Helping the School District to gain <br />access to grants helps to reduce their costs associated with the site redevelopmentwhich in <br />turn saves the taxpayers of Roseville that live within the Mounds View School District. <br />4.0 SUGGESTED CITY COUNCIL ACTION: <br />4.1 Per resolution, approve the submission of a Minnesota Department of Employment and <br />Economic Development Contamination Investigation and Response Action Plan <br />Development grant in the amount $14,976 (75% of the total cost of $19,968) to conduct a <br />Phase II Environmental Assessment for the Mounds View School District site located at <br />2959 Hamline Avenue in the City of Roseville contingent upon approval by the Mounds <br />View School District to pay the 25% matching funds required as part of the grant criteria. <br />Attachments: Draft Resolution, Letter dated October 19,2004 from Mounds View School District <br />Prepared by: Cathy Bennett (792-7072) <br />ti��C:�dnu�C]�e,1F+x•�u�iv�k�pmmC+Gri.r���r.�E�O+f�RC�� []F�7}_C�am_suhn��m_�n��l� F.ivS�(]9�9L+4].due <br />RCA MVSD DEED Cleanup Grant (10125104) - Page 2 of 2 <br />
