History for ExpansionSacred Heart has been looking to
renovate/add additional office and program space for the parish since 2006
Our need for additional, functional space remains a top priority
In summer 2009 we developed a plan to add offices to the west end of the Parish Center
The 2009 plan was put on hold due to funding and the desire not to raise funds while the St. Mary’s School Project moved forward

History (cont.)
In Spring 2011 we asked for permission to purchase the former Owatonna Hospital
Permission was granted by the Bishop but the City of Owatonna did not accept our purchase offer
The City is entering into a purchase agreement with Fareway Foods out of Boone, Iowa.
6
Exemption to Purchase 4 homesProvided the City moved forward with the
sale of the hospital to Fareway, the Bishop has granted us an exemption to purchase four homes this fall. ◦ In exchange for purchasing 4 homes (1 on Cedar
and 3 on Oak), Fareway Foods would demolish all 4 homes plus 2 garages at no cost to us.
◦ Fareway would allow for a permanent easement on the use of a drive coming from Cedar, as well as use of their parking lot. Saves us money in construction costs (aprox $125,000 for demo and $300,000 for
drive) Saves us money in our operations budget for maintenance of drive and additional
parking areas
◦ The timeline for the demolition of these structures is Fall/Winter 2012
7
Feasibility StudyThe Bishop gave us permission to conduct
a feasibility study to determine the level of interest in a building project at this time.
We’ve hired Walsh & Associates out of Burnsville to conduct the study. ◦Founded in 1984, Walsh & Associates only
work with churches and not with schools or other non-profits
Pending the study outcome, we may conduct capital campaign in winter 2012 to raise funds for phase 1 construction.

Master Site List of NeedsOur Facility Planning Team developed a 3 year and
20 year master site plan utilizing the former hospital site.
We have condensed that plan to fit the new model without the hospital property.◦ This new plan required the acquistion of 3 homes on
Oak Avenue and 1 on Cedar Avenue. The home on Cedar was required in all plans.
Our needs, from 2006, remain unchanged◦ Inadequate and non-accessible office space◦ Current programming space doesn’t allow ministries to
grow and evolve with the Parish◦ Current church needs additional seating, better sight
lines and replacement of carpets and kneelers◦ Inadequate parking and improper water drainage ◦ Continued Parish growth

ConclusionFareway Foods should prove to
be a good neighbor. They are offering: ◦ To demolish all structures, including
asbestos abatement, at no cost to the church.
◦ To provide a permanent easement for use of a drive from Cedar, a sign for Sacred Heart and St. Mary’s at that entrance, and a permanent easement for parking.
◦ Fareway is never open on Sunday and have more limited hours during the week.
◦ Fareway participates in SCRIP in their other communities, and would do so for us, as well.
