NEW BUSINESS 5A Consider Removal of Restrictive Covenants from 13808 52nd Avenue Community Development Coordinator Matt Lupini gave an overview of the staff report. Draft Minutes Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority June 25, 2020 Page 2 Chair Soderberg asked if the covenants being removed are a condition of the mortgage being satisfied. Community Development Coordinator Lupini answered that they are not, but since the loan recipients are no longer occupying the home and proposed paying off their loan balance, the covenants could be removed in addition to satisfying the mortgage. Commissioner Larson asked if the covenants are tied to the mortgage or the land. HRA Manager Barnes stated they are bound to the land. Chair Soderberg asked if there had been any conversations with the property owners or the renter about the income of the renter. Community Development Coordinator Lupini stated there had not been, since the owners proposed paying off the balance of their loan. Chair Soderberg said she would be more concerned to remove the covenants if they had ten years until they expire, but since it is less than four years she would support staff’s recommendation. Commissioner Larson asked if we knew how long the current lease is. Community Development Coordinator Lupini stated we do not. Commissioner Larson also inquired whether we knew how much the rent was for the unit. Community Development Coordinator Lupini stated we do not know. Chair Soderberg asked if we have done this in the past. HRA Manager Barnes stated that we have removed approximately five covenants for various reasons in the recent past.
