City Concern #3: Development must generate adequate local government revenue to support services to the site. Letter of March 21, 2011: If a significant portion of the site is tax-exempt, it becomes unlikely that development on the balance of the site will generate sufficient revenue to support services. _ The City desires that the balance of the site be developed concurrent with the stadium so that revenue is available to provide services. PILOT or other payments for police, fire, public works and other City services may be necessary to cover capital and operational costs of service for Vikings games and other events. The Terms: The Team shall be responsible for any and all costs incurred for municipal services (e.g. police/security, traffic control, fire prevention, emergency medical, street cleaning/trash removal and other similar services)provided for events held by the Team. Sponsors of civic, non-commercial events/uses shall be responsible for any and all incremental costs incurred for municipal services provided for its events. Staff Comment: The Terms do not address costs incurred on days with neither Team nor civic events. The Terms address operational costs of public services, but does not address capital costs.
