- RDA Resolution 2016-05 A Resolution of the Redevelopment Agency of Tooele City, Utah, Approving a Memorandum of Understanding with the Boyer Company Regarding the Development of 33 Acres of Land Located at Main Street and 1000 North Street
Presented by Randy Sant
Mr. Sant stated that for the last year the RDA has been working with the Boyer Company on the property at 1000 North to pursue a regional retail development. Mr. Sant said that he has been working towards getting a property purchase agreement with Boyer.As they have been discussing the property purchase agreement, they felt that a better approach would be to adopt a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) outlining an agreement with Boyer. The MOU would outline certain obligations that the RDA would be required to do, and certain obligations that Boyer would do. Mr. Sant explained some of the obligations of Boyer to be: work on a preliminary site plan, retain architects and civil engineers, lay out the retail as required by City ordinance, review the environmental, tenant acquisition, letters of intent, andwork with the RDA to prepare a master plan for the property. RDA responsibilities include: title commitment, do an Alta survey, give Boyer access to allfiles regarding the property, andthe environmental and geotechnical studies.
Mr. Sant further explained that the RDA could, at any time, convert over to a purchase property agreement, development agreement, or purchase sale agreement. After the MOU time period has expired, the RDA would have to make a decision about whether to enter in to a purchase property agreement with Boyer. Mr. Sant stated Mr. Baker worked with him on the MOU and felt that it was a better agreement.
