Chairman Cummings called the meeting to order at 4:00 pm. Roll call was taken and a quorum
declared present.
The minutes of September 21, 2016 and October 3, 2016 were approved as distributed
(Belter/Hintz).
Mr. Lasky entered at 4:02 PM.
Res. 16-21 Approve Determination of Necessity to Acquire Property; Establish Fair Market
Value; Authorize Purchase at 716 S. Main Street
Motion by Stam to move Res. 16-21
Seconded by Hintz
Mr. Hintz inquired about the difference in settlement price and assessment price and if there are
other buildings in the area that are pending acquisition.
Mr. Davis stated 710 and 716 S. Main Street have the same owner and are adjoined. 716 S. Main St.
needs to come down due to bricks falling and the building deteriorating. 710 S. Main Street is a
bowling alley that wraps around 716 S. Main Street. The building next to 710 S. Main Street is
Lueck’s Lumber which wraps around the bowling alley and also adjoins 43 E. 7th Avenue which
will be acquired by the RDA in August of 2017.716 S. Main Street is vacant so there are no
business to close costs associated with the property. 710 S. Main Street is a bowling alley so the
RDA would pay business closing costs and the buy the property which is why the purchase price
is above the property value.
Mr. Lasky inquired how much above the property value is being offered.
Mr. Stam responded the assessed value is $83,000 and the offer price is $199,000.
Mr. Stam inquired if there is value in the equipment and if it could be salvaged.
RDA Minutes November 30, 2016 Page 2
Mr. Davis stated the owner has the rights after their bowling season is over to salvage the
equipment.
Ms. Brandt stated the owners will have the right to remove personal property. Anything in the
bowling alley would be considered their personal property.
Mr. Cummings inquired if there was a liquor license.
Ms. Brandt stated the liquor license will be surrendered to the City.
The item was called. Motion carried 5-0.
Res. 16-22 Approve Determination of Necessity to Acquire Property; Establish Fair Market
Value; Authorize Purchase at 710 S. Main Street
Motion by Belter to move Res. 16-22
Seconded by Stam
Mr. Stam inquired if there were enough funds to afford the asking price.
Mr. Davis responded affirmatively and stated block grants funds would pay for the acquisition
and closing costs.
Mr. Belter inquired when closing on the properties would take place.
Ms. Brandt stated 716 S. Main St. will close before year end and 710 S. Main Street will close after
the 2017 bowling season is finished.
Mr. Cummings inquired if the RDA has any salvage rights for 716 S. Main Street.
Mr. Davis stated we have arranged for Habitat for Humanity to salvage for the Restore.
Mr. Lasky inquired if the costs for the acquisition included demolition.
Mr. Davis responded negatively.
Mr. Lasky inquired if the demolition would have to be approved by the RDA.
Mr. Davis stated if City crews are able to demo buildings then it would not need approval but if
the demolition is contracted out, it will most likely need to be approved by RDA.
Mr. Lasky inquired if there was an immediate danger or safety concerns to the public on 716 S.
Main St.
Mr. Davis stated there is no immediate danger but 716 S. Main St. should come down sooner rather
than later.
RDA Minutes November 30, 2016 Page 3
Mr. Hintz inquired why the property is being acquired now rather than later.
Mr. Davis stated the South Shore Redevelopment Plan identified these properties as candidates for
acquisition and redevelopment. The City began considering the acquisition of the property when
the bricks on the building started falling off and the cost to repair the wall was high. The timeliness
for this property was based on gravity. Discussion with the property owner led to talks about
acquiring 710 S. Main St. There is more flexibility on 710 S.Main St. because there is no specific
urgency other than to tear down a blighted property.As far as redevelopment, we are still a ways
from getting the entire site redeveloped. Lueck’s is aware the RDA has acquired 43 E. 7th Ave and
710 and 716 S. Main Street but we haven’t discussed potential acquisition with them.
The item was called. Motion carried 5-0
Res. 16-23 Approve Option to Purchase Vacant Lot on 4th Avenue and Michigan St; Chet
Wesenberg
Motion by Stam to move Res. 16-23
Seconded by Belter
Mr. Hintz stated he was concerned with tying up the property for 18 months in the amount of $1.
Mr. Hintz inquired if other potential developers are aware of the property for sale and inquired if
the City advertises.
Mr. Davis stated this property is the former Boatworks Marina property and is a relatively new
redevelopment site. The City put up for sale signs on the property in the past year and has been
listed for the past 6 months on websites that show vacant property for sale.
Mr. Lasky stated most developers are familiar with how to look up vacant lots on the City
Assessor website.There is the option to search by owner, so any property owned by the RDA is
advertised on the City’s website.
Mr. Cummings inquired how large the lot is.
Mr. Davis responded 1. 8 acres.
Mr. Lasky inquired about the length of the option.
Mr. Davis stated Mr. Wesenberg proposed 18 months.
Mr. Lasky inquired what the basis was for an 18 month option.
Mr.Tim Hess stated they were hoping for much less than 18 months for this particular site but
after meeting with the City about development costs and getting the site ready at a cost of
$800,000, finance for the project came into question. If approved by the RDA we would need to get
our financials in order to do a full site plan and bid out the project, then another six months to turn
around and present the project once the financials are in order.
RDA Minutes November 30, 2016 Page 4
Mr. Lasky inquired if it would be possible to do a 12 month option to purchase with a 6 month
option to renew.
Mr. Hess stated he would not have a problem with presenting their plan after the 12 months with a
6 month option to renew at that time.
Mr. Stam inquired if the water was navigable.
Ms. Brandt stated the DNR does consider the waterway navigable, however only a kayak or canoe
would be able to get through.
Mr. Cummings inquired if the applicant had any plans that included the sanitation garage to the
west of the property.
Mr. Hess stated there are no substantial plans at this time.
Mr. Stam inquired if the land was donated.
Mr. Davis stated the RDA paid $225,000 to the Boatworks heirs for the property.
Mr. Lasky inquired what the timeline was for the Morgan Partners developing adjacent to this site.
Mr. Davis stated next spring the Morgan partners will break ground on the first phase of the
development plan which is closest to Oregon Street and work towards the west in future phases.
Mr. Lasky inquired if the applicant would consider an amendment that after a 12 month period
there would be a benchmark to show evidence of a feasibility study or hard numbers.
Mr. Hess stated that within the 12 months we believe we will need a TIF. We will need to put
together a substantial amount of work,and at that point,have evidence and know if the project
will move forward.
Mr. Lasky proposed to amend the option to purchase to formally submit a proposal by December
31, 2017 with the option for a 6 month extension.
Motion by Belter to move to amend the option to purchase to include a formal submittal of a proposal by
December 31, 2017 with the option for a 6 month extension.
Second by Stam
Motion carried 5-0.
The item was called as amended.
Motion carried 5-0.
RDA Minutes November 30, 2016 Page 5
Executive Director’s Report
Mr. Davis stated there is good progress being made on the Buckstaff property and the southern
buildings should be down by the end of the year. Staff is putting together the specs for foundation
removal of the demolished buildings. The foundations will be demolished this winter in time for
redevelopment in the spring.
Mr. Belter inquired if it will be difficult to get Phase II environmental done in the winter.
Mr. Davis stated once the buildings are down on Lot 2 the RDA will acquire the property and
begin Phase II environmental work.
Mr. Belter inquired when all of the buildings will be down.
Mr. Davis stated at the end of March buildings will be down.
Mr. Davis stated the Bowen Street house is almost complete. Appliances will be delivered this
week and hope to have an open house and put on the market.
Construction continues on the Riverwalk west of Oregon Street. The City was awarded a $686,000
grant for the next phase of the riverwalk west towards Boatworks.
Mr. Belter inquired if there was a way to cut through the lagoon with a wooden bridge instead of
going all the way around the lagoon.
Mr. Davis stated because the lagoon is part of a navigable waterway the bridge would have to be
13 feet high, similar to the bridge at Boatworks.
Mr. Davis stated the WisDOT is conducting a study on the Oregon/Jackson St. Bridge. There will
be an environmental document out in February with their alternatives. Mr. Art Dumke is still
working on redevelopment scenarios for the Pioneer area. Mr. Wesenberg and Mr. Hess have
approached City staff and Andy Dumke about redeveloping the Granary. Rivers 1.5 is completed
and occupancy is filling up. Mr. Andy Dumke is still working on building plans for the Parcel on
Jackson and Marion and has the option through 2017.
Mr. Lasky inquired about the brewery on Parcel H.
Mr. Davis stated he has not heard from them specifically but they are working on the financing for
the project.
There was no further discussion.The meeting adjourned at approximately 4:37 PM.

Res.17-01 Approve Acquisition of a Portion of Buckstaff Property at 1118 South Main Street
(Acquire Lot 2 of CSM 7081 Only)
Motion by Belter to move Res.17-01
Seconded by Bermingham
Mr. Davis stated the Buckstaff property was split into two lots which has turned out to be
beneficial so we can accelerate the demolition of the foundations and the piers that the City is
responsible for removing. Since not all of the buildings are down on Lot 1, we can still take
possession of Lot 2 and begin the foundation removal which will speed up redevelopment of the
site. City Attorney Lynn Lorenson is present if there are any questions regarding the settlement
agreement approved by Council last year.
Mr. Belter inquired who the seller is for the Buckstaff property.
Ms. Lorenson stated the seller is one of Martin Cowie’s entities, Oshkosh Furniture LLC.
Mr. Belter inquired about the involvement of the bank.
Ms. Lorenson stated the bank will do a Quit Claim Deed to the RDA for any interest they may or
may not have with the property.
Mr. Belter stated Huntington Bank took over FirstMerit Bank.
Ms. Lorenson stated the entity has changed but a lot of the people have remained the same and the
representative has remained the same.
Mr. Bermingham inquired if the buildings are down on Lot 2.
RDA Minutes January 12, 2017 Page 2
Mr. Davis responded affirmatively. Workers are deconstructing on Lot 1 as well and it is
anticipated those building will be down later this winter or early spring.
Mr. Stam inquired if there was any word on the D-League
Mr. Davis stated the developer had a very good open house last night and should be able to
answer those questions at Plan Commission on January 17th about the arena.
Mr. Belter inquired when City crews would be able to remove foundations.
Mr. Davis responded as soon as the RDA closes on Lot 2 which would be as early as next week.

(CARRIED_______ LOST _______ LAID OVER _______ WITHDRAWN _______)
PURPOSE:APPROVE LEASE AGREEMENT WITH FOX VALLEY PRO
BASKETBALL, INC.; 1212 SOUTH MAIN STREET LOT 2 OF CSM
7081
BE IT RESOLVED by the Redevelopment Authority of the City of Oshkosh that a
Lease Agreement with Fox Valley Pro Basketball, Inc. or its affiliates to lease property at
the former Buckstaff property at 1212 South Main Street, also known as Lot 2 of CSM 7081
is hereby approved and the proper officials are hereby authorized to enter into a Lease
Agreement for purposes of same.
TO:City of Oshkosh Redevelopment Authority
FROM:Allen Davis, Community Development Director
DATE:February 9, 2017
SUBJECT:17-02 Approve Lease Agreement with Fox Valley Pro Basketball, Inc.; 1212
South Main Street Lot 2 of CSM 7081
Background
The recent announcement regarding the proposed arena and Milwaukee Bucks D-League
team has accelerated the redevelopment of the Buckstaff property. As part of the
redevelopment, the owner will have to lease the property to the developer so that
WisDNR can review the development plans and construction with the expectation of
receiving a Voluntary Party Liability Exemption (VPLE) which requires a Certificate of
Completion (CoC). Once the CoC is obtained,the developer/future owner and RDA will
have no liability for any pre-existing environmental contamination issues.
Analysis
This is the same procedure and lease arrangements the RDA has used in all the Marion
Road redevelopment projects. Once WisDNR is satisfied that the parking lot, buildings,
and other environmental caps have been installed to their satisfaction, the WisDNR will
issue the CoC and both the RDA and the developer are free from any pre-existing
environmental liabilities.The property is leased for $1 until the CoC is obtained, usually
within 6 months of final construction. The Lease Agreement will follow the same format,
with similar terms, to the Marion Road leases.
Staff will be bringing the draft Development Agreement and Land Sale to the RDA for
action at the appropriate time, later this February.
Recommendation
The RDA approves a Lease Agreement with Fox Valley Pro Basketball, Inc.

(CARRIED_______ LOST _______ LAID OVER _______ WITHDRAWN _______)
PURPOSE:APPROVE LEASE AGREEMENT WITH H&M COMMERCIAL
LLC; 43 EAST 7TH AVENUE
WHEREAS,in 2014 the Redevelopment Authority approved the Determination of
Necessity to acquire property at 43 E. 7th Avenue; and
WHEREAS, the City of Oshkosh and Redevelopment Authority entered into an
agreement with CHAMCO to acquire the property no later than August 1, 2017.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Redevelopment Authority of the
City of Oshkosh that a Lease Agreement with H&M Commercial LLC to lease property
at 43 East 7th Avenue is hereby approved and the proper officials are hereby authorized
to execute a Lease Agreement with substantially the same terms as attached hereto, and
to carry out all actions necessary to implement the Redevelopment Authority’s
obligations to implement the terms and conditions of the Lease Agreement.
TO:City of Oshkosh Redevelopment Authority
FROM:Allen Davis, Community Development Director
DATE:February 9, 2017
SUBJECT:17-03 Approve Lease Agreement with H&M Commercial, LLC; 43 E. 7th
Avenue (effective when RDA acquires property)
Background
The RDA entered into an agreement with CHAMCO to acquire 43 E. 7th Avenue in
August of 2017. The previous owner is also the current occupant/tenant. The tenant has
inquired if the RDA would consider extending the lease for their continued occupancy.
Analysis
The proposed lease would be for 2 years. The lease rate would be $5,000 per month with
the tenant responsible for all costs of the warehouse area. The RDA would be responsible
for the office space that the tenant does not want to use.The attached Term Sheet
provides more specifics. The cost per square foot is a little low, but the tenant is also
responsible for maintenance of the building and property, not the RDA. The lease
payments will help generate funding for the eventual demolition of the building.
The RDA will acquire the property as part of the Southshore Redevelopment Plan and
will be combined with the block to the south. Since the agreement for the acquisition, the
RDA has also obtained the shop and bowling alley on the block. In addition, the Concept
Plan for the Sawdust District has been developed, and the block is designated as a major
redevelopment site. While redevelopment begins with the Arena to the south, the
building will be demolished for redevelopment. The proposed 2 year lease, with a 6
month early termination, would allow the RDA to demolish the site in concert with the
redevelopment of the block.
Recommendation
The RDA approves the Lease Agreement with H & M Commercial, LLC.
