. , . . Arden Hills Council 3 February 17, 1994 The proposal from C G Hill was also discussed. It was agreed it would not be prudent to encourage this development through the use of TIF. There was concern expressed about the future development of this area. Control Data Corporation is splitting these parcels off and the City has not had an opportunity to consider the long range planning. Until this has been completed, the use of TIF in this area is difficult. Discussion on the loss of HACA aid due to the creation of the new district was held. The loss of $13,000-$14,000 per year in HACA aid would require over 10 years to return any funding to the City. With the budget as it is, this return did not appear feasible. staff was directed to inform C G Hill that due to the costs to the City including HACA aid and need for long range planning, the City would not use TIF assistance in this project.
