TCAAP Joint Development Authority The TCAAP Joint Development Authority (TCAAP JDA) is chaired by a resident of the City of Arden Hills, and consists of elected officials from the City of Arden Hills and Ramsey County with the purpose of joint governance of economic development and redevelopment of the TCAAP/Rice Creek Commons property. The TCAAP JDA reviews all development proposals for conformity with the TCAAP Master Plan and has approval authority for such proposals. On February 6, 2023, the TCAAP JDA adopted the following vision statement for TCAAP/Rice Creek Commons: The Joint Development Authority’s (JDA) vision for the Rice Creek Commons site is to create economic prosperity, build an inclusive economy, have a long-term sustainable development, and develop an energy forward community by providing much-needed housing at a variety of income levels – including affordable housing – and creating well-paying jobs. Environmental History, Remediation and Current Status In 1983, the TCAAP property was placed on the federal and Minnesota Superfund lists. In 2013, Ramsey County acquired the 427-acre TCAAP/Rice Creek Commons property from the U.S. Government. Demolition and site remediation occurred on the 427-acre TCAAP/Rice Creek Commons property, cleaning the soil to residential standards, as defined by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). In 2016, the MPCA issued a Certificate of Completion of Response Actions for soil remediation. In 2019, the 427-acre TCAAP/Rice Creek Commons property soil and surface water was delisted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) from the federal National Priority List (“federal Superfund”). In 2020, the MPCA also delisted the 427-acre TCAAP/Rice Creek Commons property from the state Permanent List of Priorities (“state Superfund”). As result of the above actions, the site is development ready.
