<br />J. The YMCA will have a volunteer board made of community members and leaders. <br /> <br />K. This Memorandum is dependent on the City, the EDA and the YMCA determining <br />that it is feasible to financially meet the programming needs of both entities and <br />provide cash flow adequate to operate, staff, maintain and make capital <br />improvements to the Building, and to provide the services and programs intended. <br /> <br />NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the parties hereto agree as <br />follows: <br /> <br />I.

Design and Construction. The YMCA and the EDA will cause the design and <br />construction of the Building to incorporate reasonable architectural appeal, quality <br />building materials, and durable finishes that comply with City standards. The cost <br />of designing, constructing, and equipping the building will be funded through the <br />financing. The City and the EDA's financial commitment shall not exceed $12 <br />million without prior approval of the City and the EDA. <br /> <br />The YMCA and EDA intend to design and construct the Building to meet current <br />Building Codes and environmental standards. The Building is programmed to <br />include one small gymnasium for the use of YMCA members and City of Elk River <br />recreational programs when the YMCA has no scheduled activities. If feasible, the <br />gymnasium shall be designed and constructed in a manner that permits City <br />staffing and City users controlled access to the gymnasium.

The YMCA and EDA will also <br />include an alternate to build a full size gymnasium provided the total cost of the <br />building does not exceed $12 million or if the Building qualifies for the Grant and <br />is awarded the Grant, the YMCA and EDA may elect to use the Grant proceeds to <br />build a full size gymnasium provided the cost of the building does not exceed $12 <br />million plus the Grant proceeds. The gymnasium will be made available for City of <br />Elk River recreational programs not less than the following: <br /> <br />Monday through Friday: 8 hours/week between the hours of9:00 a.m. and <br />3:00 p.m. and 8 hours/week between the hours of3 p.m. and 9 p.m. The <br />City will not be required to use more than 2 of the 8 hours per week on <br />Fridays. <br /> <br />Saturday and Sunday: 3 hours/week between the hours of 6 a.m. and 12:00 <br />p.m. and 4 hours/week between the hours of 12:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. <br /> <br />2 <br />
