CCR2019086-Collateral RLF-Schulew COMMON COUNCIL - CITY OF MUSKEGO RESOLUTION #086-2019 RESOLUTION TO RESTRUCTURE THE COLLATERAL FOR THE REVOLVING LOAN FUND (RLF) PROVIDED TO SCHULEW LLC D/B/A LEGACY LANDSCAPING LLC WHEREAS, On November 28, 2017, the Common Council adopted Resolution #097- 2017 which approved a $125,000.00 loan fund application submitted by Schulew LLC d/b/a Legacy Landscaping LLC; and WHEREAS, On March 15, 2018, the City of Muskego provided a $125,000.00 Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) out of the Community Development Block Grant Program for Schulew LLC to assist the company with the purchase of the real estate that it was leasing at S81 W18510 Gemini Drive and lease it to Legacy Landscaping LLC. In addition to purchasing the real estate, funding for the project included the construction of bulk storage bins and a new building that would be occupied by Legacy Landscaping; and WHEREAS, Resolution #097-2017 outlined the collateral to be pledged by Schulew LLC to secure the loan, which included real estate mortgages in the amount of $125,000.00 on the residences of the two owners, Daryl Schure and Scott Lewitzke as well as unlimited personal guarantees of Mr. Schure and Mr. Lewitzke and an irrevocable Letter of Credit in the amount of $87,500.00 issued by Citizens Bank of Mukwonago to the City of Muskego; and WHEREAS, Since the loan was granted, Mr. Schure sold his home in Wind Lake and built a new home in Muskego. Because his Wind Lake home needed to be sold free and clear of all encumbrances, the City satisfied its mortgage and entered into an Escrow Agreement with Daryl and Kimberly Schure, husband and wife, on May 23, 2019, whereby the City is currently holding the amount of $125,000.00 from the proceeds of said sale in escrow; that said funds were to be released and a subsequent mortgage entered into when Schure completed final conversion of a construction loan into conventional fixed rate financing for the new Muskego property located at S81 W13413 Boxhorn Drive, Muskego, WI 53150, along with providing proof of equity in the new home to the City in the amount of $125,000.00; and WHEREAS, Since the new home has been completed and the required financing obtained, Schulew LLC d/b/a Legacy Landscaping LLC is requesting that the City reconsider this matter and change the security of its loan to include junior real estate mortgages on the personal residences of Schure and Lewitzke, partners of said LLC, in the amount of $50,000.00 each, instead of $125,000.00, because the available equity of both residences can now support the loan amount; the previously provided collateral of unlimited personal guaranties of both Schure and Lewitzke, as well as the Letter of Credit in the amount of $87,500.00 will remain in place; that Schulew LLC d/b/a Legacy Landscaping LLC is current on its loan payments to the City; and Resolution #086-2019 Page 2 WHEREAS, The Finance Committee has reviewed the request of Schulew LLC d/b/a Legacy Landscaping LLC and recommended to restructure the collateral for the RLF as stated herein to the Common Council. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED That the Common Council of the City of Muskego, upon the recommendation of the Finance Committee, does hereby approve the following: That the following collateral be pledged by Schulew LLC d/b/a Legacy Landscaping LLC to secure the RLF loan:  Third mortgage on Daryl Schure's residential property in Waukesha County such that sufficient equity is available to secure the City’s loan.  Third mortgage on Scott Lewitzke's residential property in Waukesha County such that sufficient equity is available to secure the City’s loan.  Unlimited personal guarantees of Daryl Schure and Scott Lewitzke.  Irrevocable Letter of Credit from Daryl Schure and/or Scott Lewitzke for the length of the loan issued by Citizens Bank of Mukwonago in the total amount of $87,500.00.
