RAMSEY - How CORpse cashflow flows. A new sidebar poll open until noon, June 20.

As with other open sidebar polls, this item shall be the top post during duration of the poll. Newer posts will be placed below this item until the poll closes, when normal sequencing resumes.

The poll question speaks for itself. Reasons for it are self-evident. By the way, who is  Flaherty & Collins?

This Google. For now, I leave that question with only the Google for an answer. Subjective opinion may be posted later.

_______________UPDATE_______________
By error, the poll "closed" prematurely. It's fixed.




_______FURTHER UPDATE - POLL RESULTS + _______


The sidebar poll that closed yesterday showed an eleven to one response:


Is it relevant to you to know whether Landform, and/or Darren Lazan, and/or Michael Jungbauer is being paid money by Flaherty & Collins above and beyond money being paid by City of Ramsey:

Eleven out of every dozen felt it relevant, (coincidently - the numberical balance in a different context among Apostles). In an email exchange, I wrote:

At the end of the item, you state, "Please contact Heidi Nelson at
hnelson@coratramsey.com or 763-433-9817 if you have
questions or concerns." This link:

So -

Is it relevant to you to know whether Landform, and/or Darren Lazan, and/or Michael Jungbauer is being paid money by Flaherty & Collins above and beyond money being paid by City of Ramsey?

Add Cronk to that.

Unresponsive responsiveness being an art form, I got back:

Heidi Nelson to me - 12:39 PM (20 hours ago)

Eric:

The current contracts related to the Flaherty and Collins project are between the City, the HRA and Flaherty and Collins. If amendments to those contracts are approved, they will be between the same parties.

If this land transaction is closed and the project moves forward, Mr. Lazan will be compensated with development fee as approved on December 14, 2010. These items are all included in the December 14, 2010 HRA, City Council agendas and minutes, and are available to you on-line. Mr. Cronk will not be compensated with development fee by the Ramsey HRA. Mr. Cronk does have a real estate business relationship with Flaherty and Collins, as discussed on December 14th, 2010, and will be compensated via his role with Flaherty and Collins.

Mr. Jungbauer is not a party to any of the agreements for the Flaherty and Collins project, nor is he a party to the development management contract between Landform and the City's HRA. As we have mentioned in previous information, Mr. Jungbauer is employed part-time with Landform, but he does not work on the development management services contract for the City of Ramsey HRA.

Regards,

Heidi Nelson
HRA Executive Director

WHAT WE'VE GOT HERE IS FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE.

Fiduciary mixed loyalties and conflicting interests matter to me. As RELEVANT.
