BRIGGS AND MORGAN Heidi Nelson March 3, 2011 Page 2 3632696v1 approve the execution of, execute and record this Agreement at any time. It must be recorded before the recording of the Deed to F & C. 3. Resolution Approving the Modification of a Variance to the Maximum Front Yard Setback for the Ramsey Municipal Facility. When Ramsey Municipal Center was built, the City granted itself a variance from the applicable front yard setbacks. The Resolution approving the variance was recorded in the Anoka County Land Records. The Resolution describes the property subject to the Resolution as Outlots S, T, X, Y and Z, Ramsey Town Center Addition. These lots were later replatted at parts of Lots 1, 1 A and 2, Block 1, Ramsey Town Center Fifth Addition and are now being replatted as parts of COR ONE. The purpose of this Resolution is to amend the legal description attached to the original variance so that the variance only affects the actual Ramsey Municipal Center site which will now be described as Lots 1 and 1A, Block 1, COR ONE, Anoka County, Minnesota. I assume it will need to satisfy the same public notice requirements as an original variance, but I suggest you check with Bill Goodrich as to that issue. The City's Board of Adjustment should consider the adoption of this Resolution after the City Council has approved the Preliminary Plat of COR ONE. It should be recorded after the Plat of COR ONE is recorded and before the HRA conveys the COR ONE Parcel to COR ONE. 4. Release of Land from and Amendment to Lease Agreement and Release of Land from and Amendment to Ground Lease Agreement. As a part of the financing of the Ramsey Municipal Center, the City ground leased the Municipal Center site to the EDA and the EDA leased the property back to the City. Both the Ground Lease and the Lease describe the property subject to the Lease as Lots 1 and 1A, Block 1, Ramsey Town Center Fifth Addition. As the result of the replatting, a portion of that property will no longer be a part of the Municipal Center site. The purpose of these instruments are to amend the Ground Lease and Lease so they only encumber Lots 1 and 1A, COR ONE, Anoka County, Minnesota and to release the portion of the former Lot 1 and Lot 1A, Ramsey Town Center Fifth Addition that will not be a part of Lots 1 and IA, COR ONE. As I indicated above, please contact Mary Ippel to discuss the specific procedures which must be followed in approving, executing and recording these instruments. 5. Release of Deferred Assessments. There is a Certificate of Deferred Assessments recorded against title to Lot 1, Block 1, Ramsey Town Center Addition. The Certificate indicates that there is a deferred assessment of $170,330.00 as of April 6, 2007. I assume that this deferred assessment was released at the same time as the rest of the special assessments were released. If so, the City must release the deferred assessment of record because a portion of Lot 1, Block 1,
