Cotta Grove
Minnesota
To: Economic Development Authority
From: Ryan R. Schroeder, City Administrator
Date: June 7, 2011
Subject: Development Update
Building Permits:
After experiencing two subpar years representing construction activity at half traditional levels
2011 has started the year at half of that half. The Board should be reminded that while the
recession technically began in December 2007 Cottage Grove did not experience a decline in
activity until a year later (2009). 2011 activity through April, however, is reduced from 2009 -10
levels by 55 %. Four months of activity is not necessarily predictive of year end activity. It
should also be recalled that 2010 remodeling activity was a banner year with the 2011 pace
not far off the 2010 production levels. With our limited residential lot availability we do
anticipate a rehash of 2010 (at 45 new homes not counting the 44 unit White Pines Phase II).
We also do not anticipate significant strength in commercial activity during most of the 2011
construction season.
Public Safety / City Hall:
On June 1, 2011 the City Council approved the preliminary and final plat, provided direction on
financing the project, approved the Ravine Parkway bids, and approved the agreement with
the County for cost sharing on the Ravine Parkway and County Road 19 improvements, and
the agreement with the County on the land swap in accordance with the 2005 agreements. On
June 15 the Council will consider another agreement with the County on a proposed land
exchange of 7.44 acres and on June 24 during a special meeting the Council will consider
authorizing bids through a Best Value process. We are in the process of scheduling a
community open house in July. Under the current schedule we anticipate receiving bid
proposals on July 26 with interviews on or about August 10 with bid award on September 7,
2011,
ICSC Follow -up:
Mayor Bailey, EDA vice Chair Olsen, EDA member Poncin and Administrator Schroeder
worked the Nevada ICSC exhibition May 22 -25, 2011. We had 29 pre - scheduled meetings
and all told may at least 40 contacts during the exhibition. Enclosed is a follow -up letter to a
major portion of those with whom we visited dated June 7 with a draft second letter for Board
consideration. The question relating to this second letter regards the Golf Outing and if we
offer to Comp contacts from the ICSC exhibition and to what extent.
7460 80 Street Signage:
As this came up during a recent EDA meeting we note for you that in working with the owners
of this property (American Account Advisors) the owners have converted their temporary
signage to a permanent address sign as of June 3, 2011.
Business Park Proposal:
Staff worked with the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development on a
proposal to a 60 acre business park prospect. The Cottage Grove site is in competition with a
Wisconsin location. Decisions are anticipated in July.
Home Depot and CottageView:
There continues to be reason for optimism as discussions continue on both sites. We do not
anticipate, however, that the EDA will have an opportunity to respond to specific proposals at
this time.

Dear «First_Name>>,
The ICSC exhibition held May 22 -25, 2011 was a great event this year allowing the City
of Cottage Grove Minnesota and our Growth Partners team to connect and reconnect
with lots of great folks. While the national economy may yet be experiencing a bit of
malaise we in Cottage Grove are inspired by the opportunities that our future presents
to us and our current and future business partners.
The City is actively engaged in facilitating new business opportunities and we'd invite
you to take a look at some of the options that currently exist or those that will soon be in
place. For a general overview of site options please access our business website
created specifically for development opportunities at www.groMhr)artnerscg.com
When you are available for a personalized tour of development sites please do not
hesitate to contact us. We will take whatever time you need to fully understand our
community, our future plans, and business site opportunities. Please contact our
Economic Development Director Danette Parr at 651.458.2824, dparr ,cottage -
grove.org or City Administrator Ryan Schroeder at 651.458.2822, rschroeder(o)cottage-
grove.org
In Cottage Grove we live our "Growth Partners" moniker. Our goal is to ensure our
business community is successful. We look forward to partnering with you.
Dear
As the Mayor of the City of Cottage Grove and the President of our Economic
Development Authority I need to alert you to a recent enhancement in our business
operations that should help us help you to become a Growth Partner with our great City!
Our new Economic Development Director, Danette Parr, has implemented streamlined
development review features beyond what were already "best in class!" Danette, and
her team, are now hosting development review meetings every 2 I 3 and 4th
Wednesdays of every month for use by the development community. Commencing at
10 AM, you now will have the opportunity to present any development proposal and to
receive a preliminary "one- stop" response from every development related arm of the
City. This new process should allow you to save time and money while avoiding the
guessing game of what might be reviewed positively, or not, as you create your
development plans. This is just the latest of our efforts to become your Growth Partner!
Please contact Danette at 651.458.2824 or dparr(d.)cottage- g rove. orq for more
information or to get your project on our schedule.
We'd also like to alert you of the opportunity to join us at the 16 Annual Growth
Partners Golf Outing at our Golf Digest 4.5 Star ranked River Oaks Golf Course. We
would invite you and a member of your team to join us, on us , on August 9, 2011 for this
noon shotgun event. Please find, enclosed, the registration materials for which the fee
will be waived. Please contact Ken Smith at 651.458.2882 or ksmith(a�cottage-
grove.orq for more information.
We'd also remind you of our website at www.growthpartnerscq.com for information on
development opportunities or www.cottage- grove.org for general information about the
City.
We look forward to working with you.
Sincerely,
Myron Bailey
Mayor
