The Chy of Arden Hills is considering a proposal by.Cottage Lifestyles for senior housing using tax increment financing. The project includes a 50-unit, two-story apartment building located on four parcels west of Cleveland Avenue, south of CoUnty Rsad E2 and north of Thom Drive ' in the City. The proj ect ,Iould benefit low to moderate income seniors and would create employment opportunities resulting from the construc- tion of the units and add about $2.1 nillion of new market value to the tax base. The ta.,< increments are expected to be captured over a period of about 15 years (see cash flow attached). If you wish to meet with representatives of the Chy prior to the hearing to discuss the project, please call Dorothy Person, City Administrator, at 633-5676. Sincerely, EHLERS AND ASSOCIATES, INC. .

BY ORDER OF THE CITY COUNCIL Dorolhy A, Person City Admlnlltntor (Bullelln: Apr.14, 21, 1993) . . MINUTES CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING April 12, 1993 7:30 P.M. - Mounds View High School Cafeteria CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, Mayor Sather called to order the regular City Council meeting at 7:30 p.m. Present: Mayor Thomas Sather; Councilmembers Beverly Aplikowski, Dale Hicks, Paul Malone, Dennis Probst. Also present were: City Attorney, Jerry Filla; City Planner, John Bergly; City Engineer, Mark Graham; Public Works Superintendent, Dan Winkel; Clerk Administrator, Dorothy Person; Community Planning Coordinator, Catherine Iago; Recording Secretary, Shar Foster. ADOPT AGENDA It was noted that there were agenda items under "Unfinished and New Business" (consideration of resolutions and adoption . of ordinances) that directly related to this evening's two "Public Hearings". Council agreed to rearrange the agenda to consider those resolutions and ordinances immediately after the public hearings. MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Hicks, to adopt the April 12, 1993 agenda with the change of order as noted above. Motion carried unanimously (5-0). PUBLIC HEARINGS 1993 PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE Mayor Sather opened the meeting at 7:35 p.m. for the purpose of conducting a public hearing on the 1993 Pavement Maintenance Improvement Notice. He stated the purpose of this hearing was to receive input with regard to the 1993 Pavement Maintenance Program. He explained the procedure for the hearing would be that the City Engineer would make a presentation with regard to the 1993 Pavement Maintenance Program, then Council and the public would be invited to comment or ask questions. He instructed anyone wishing to speak to sign the guest register, after which their names would be called in the order listed. Administrator Person noted that one letter regarding this . matter was received from Sandra Bainbridge, 4113 James Circle. . Arden Hills Council 2 Apri 1 12, 1993 city Engineer Graham introduced himself to the audience and stated that this evening's hearing is required by law as a means of providing the public a forum for public input regard an improvement project, in this instance, the 1993 Pavement Maintenance Program for bituminous overlay and seal coating of streets within the City. Graham explained that rating of City streets involves periodic examination to determine condition and then a determination is made by the City Engineer, with input from the Public Works Department, as to the best available means of protecting each street and extending its useful life. Graham explained the processes to complete a 1-1/2 inch bituminous overlay or seal coating of existing street surfaces. He illustrated on a map the street segments proposed to receive overlay or seal coat in 1993. Graham announced that this evening, estimated assessment amounts can be provided, but the actual assessment hearing on this matter is scheduled to take place in May 1993; at . that hearing, the public will have an opportunity to specifically discuss matters relative to assessments. Graham explained that the City's Assessment Policy calls for all seal coating work to be paid 100% by the City; all bituminous overlay work to be paid 50% by the City and 50% by the benefiting property owners, on a front footage basis. He explained the method of calculating assessments for corner lots or lots abutting other streets which have been improved and assessed. Graham noted that some of the benefiting property owners in the 1993 Pavement Maintenance Program are townhome owners. He stated that a determination has been made that an assessment cannot legally be levied on a townhome association, therefore, the assessment for the streets benefiting the townhome owners is proposed to be spread amongst townhome owners on a per unit basis. Graham stated that the Feasibility Report for this project estimated a residential front footage assessment of $3.03. He added that bids were opened on April 6, and assuming the project would be awarded to the low bidder, and applying the City's assessment policy (whereby benefiting property owners pay for 50% of the cost), the front footage assessment for residential property owners would be $2.98 per front foot, . and the per unit assessment for townhome owners would be $63.78. . Arden Hills Council 3 Apri 1 12, 1993 Graham reviewed the schedule for 1993 Pavement Maintenance Program, which called for 1) Assessment hearing to be held May 10, 2 ) Awarding of the project June 4, 3} Construction to commence in July 1993, and 4) Completion of the project in August 1993. Mayor Sather advised the public that if an individual property is assessed more than a $500 assessment, that assessment will be payable over a five year period with interest; if an individual property is assessed less than a $500 assessment, that assessment will be payable over a three year period with interest. He added that there would be no interest applied if the assessment were paid in full within thirty days of the assessment hearing. Names were called in the order listed on the guest register. Comments made by citizens are as follows (not verbatim) : Gordon Fay, 1841 Gramsie Road - 1 am not opposed to this improvement project, but I request that concrete curb and . gutter be installed at 1 eas t for my property; I would be willing to pay for it. It is important that the City review the drainage situation at Fairview because drainage there is blocked and creates drainage problems in other locations. Jim Talbott, 1840 Gramsie Road - My home was built in 1961 before Gramsie Road was completed. The home was built at an appropriate elevation according to the street plan, but the street plan was not followed, hence, there are water drainage problems. I fear that if the street were raised, even as insignificantly as 1-1/2 inches for overlay, there would be an increased water drainage problem affecting my property. Graham said he would review any potential problem areas with residents, City public works crew, and the contractor to analyze what measures should be taken to enhance drainage. He added that it is customary for the contractor to "feather" the bituminous overlay to match driveway approaches as well as possible. Ken Hanzalik , 1768 Venus Avenue - I and my neighbor, Walt Harmer of 1776 Venus Avenue experience drainage problems when there is a heavy rainfall. Mr. Harmer sent a letter to the City regarding this matter, but received no response. Perhaps we need a situation like that which exists at the . Dellview/Glen View Court area, or perhaps a new manhole cover would help. When was road work 1 ast done on Venus Avenue? Crystal Avenue had work done on it just last year and it is already cracked, I support spending money wisely and I don't think we need concrete curbs on these . Arden Hills Council 4 April 12,1993 residential streets. The blacktop "curb" put in on Crystal Street last year is of no value. Graham said he did not know off hand when work was last done to Venus Avenue, but has the history records and could check. With regard to cracking, Graham stated that overlay will not eliminate crack patterns in streets, but if necessary patch work is done to the worst spots and the entire street is overlayed, it would result in maximum street life with minimum cost. There are no plans to install the blacktop "curbs" referred to. Chuck McCann. 1839 Venus Avenue - The Feasibility Report outlines criteria used for rating streets and guidelines as to when the ratings warrant reconstruction. With the condition of Venus Avenue being so bad, why is the road not being reconstructed? There are two catch basins at the end of the street, but they are often clogged with leaves, etc. in a heavy rainfall, then water backs into my garage and could eventually back into my basement. The "crown" of the street needs to be cut down. I wrote a letter to the City . in this regard and have received no response. Rather than a proposed bond issue for a new City Hall, perhaps that money should go toward streets. We need to watch spending very closely. Have bids been let for this project? Graham said that when street ratings are determined, there is consideration given as to whether overlayment or seal coating can cost effectively extend the life of the street instead of the much higher cost of reconstruction. He added that sometimes the pitch of a street can be realigned in order to redirect drainage. With regard to the clogged catch basin problem, he stated that the City's recently adopted storm water management utility should help alleviate that situation. Regarding bids, Graham reported that bids have been let, received, opened, and accepted; however the project has not yet been awarded. Al Lawson, 1777 Glenview Avenue - 1 have no objection to the overlay project. who is responsible to address the poor condition of County Road F and Snelling? Mayor Sather commented that County Road F and Snelling are two streets which are being considered for a possible "street jurisdiction swap" between the City and Ramsey County. . Terry Schutten, 1251 Wyncrest Court - I am here as a citizen of Arden Hills to hear this discussion, but I also work for Ramsey County and am involved in the possible "street jurisdiction swap" concept. If a decision is made to . Arden Hills Council 5 April 12, 1993 "swap" streets, the streets involved would be brought to a reasonable condition prior to that action. Dennis Prchal. 1553 Briarknoll Drive - Even small amounts of rainfall create drainage problems. Despite repairs, there is a problem with the catch basins in that they don't proper! y drain. Barney Palmer, 1300 Nursery Hill Lane - 1 original 1 y came to this meeting to oppose this improvement, but I have changed my mind. The information I received in the mail was very incomplete and gave a poor explanation of the proposal. Attending this hearing has clarified some of my questions. 1 am concerned about the significant number of garbage trucks and buses that use my street because I believe those heavy vehicles significantly reduce the life of a street. Perhaps we could limit the number of garbage vendors or have buses rerouted to reduce the number of trips they take. Mayor Sather commented that the School Transportation Department makes a concerted effort to reduce transportation . costs and coordinate busing, but there are trips made to and from several different school locations. Ralph Larson, 1273 Nursery Hill Lane - Our street has curb and gutter, but an additional 1-1/2 inch overlay will negate the effectiveness of the gutter. I am not opposed to the project, but need assurance that the final pro ject will be workable, I am familiar with the engineering firm of Maier Stewart and know they have a good reputation and trust they will check into all the concerns and do a good job. Can the low bid accommodate unanticipated situations where minor repairs, milling, or thicker bituminous will be needed? If those kinds of repairs are needed, will assessments increase? Graham stated that he is aware that attention needs to be given to many details and several sections of the affected streets must be individually examined to determine the best way to proceed. He added that it may be necessary to try to "mill" portions of existing streets prior to overlaying the street. With regard to repairs and assessments, Graham stated that there is room within the bid for minor repairs as needed. He assured that if change orders are needed to address such needs, the residents' assessments will not increase once assessments are levied; however, the city's share of the project may need to be adjusted. . . Arden Hills Council 6 April 12, 1993 Vincent Anderson, 1325 Karth Lake Circle - I am uncomfortable with Graham's response to Ralph Larson's comments, wherein he said it may be necessary to "try to mill" portions of existing streets. 1 get the impression that there is no plan as to how to address problems, but rather the engineer will simply "try" certain measures. The information sent to me by mail was vague and unclear, In the future, the City should send out more specifics. Graham stated that the "milling" process is relatively a new process, but that it has been done by engineers and contractors with success and is considered a suitable process to be used as needed. He added, however, that it is more expensive to "mill" a street section! so it will be done only when a determination has been made that it is necessary. Arlene Mitchell , 1283 Wvnridqe Drive - To what extent does overlaying a street extend its life expectancy? There is little traffic and no potholes yet on my street; its rating . is not bad compared to others in the neighborhood. 1 appreciate preventive measures, but question whether overlaying my street at this time is premature. Graham responded by saying that there are many points to consider when determining when to overlay a street, such as distressed pavement, cracking, maintenance records, age, etc. He added that another consideration is that typically there can be much better bids by "clustering" a number of streets in a neighborhood and overlaying all of them as a complete package. He added that he feels Wynridge Drive is due for overlayment now before there is worse deterioration of the street. He offered to discuss his analysis with Ms. Mitchell after the public hearing if she desired, Scott Tolson, 1321 Wvncrest Court - How often does the City perform inventorylanalysis of streets? I question whether overlayment of Wyncrest Court is warranted at this time because there are no potholes; perhaps it should be postponed for a few years. Graham explained that about every three years a City-wide street inventory/analysis is conducted, and City crews review streets even more regularly. He reiterated that it is cost effective to overlay a street to extend its life before it is in a very deteriorated state. . Mayor Sather asked if anyone else wished to speak; there was no response. The publio hearing was closed at 8:27 p.m. . Arden Hills Council 7 April 12, 1993 Councilmember Malone commented that the City makes every attempt to use funds as wisely as possible to get the most of very limited funds, by using good judgment in the best interest of the City. He added that the commitment to overlaying and seal coating is a cost effective measure because those processes extend the life of streets significantly reducing the need to reconstruct streets. He advised the public that typically a residential property would be assessed about $3/front foot for an overlay project compared to $12/front foot for a cold-in-place recycling project or $30/front foot for a reconstruction project. He stated that typically better bids are received when streets are "clustered" together. He reminded the public that even though a street such as Wynridge is currently rated better than other streets in the City, typically those ratings drop very quickly after a certain point. With regard to stresses on streets, Malone commented that the City tries to address drainage problems because poor drainage destroys streets very quickly. He added that a lot of thought has been given over the past years with regard to . the possibility of regulating garbage trucks, but evidence to prove their negative affect on streets is conflicting, therefore, their contribution to destruction of roads has been hard to prove. A question arose from the audience as to how the Council can consider a new City Hall when there is so little money in the City's budget. Councilmember Malone invited the public to visit the City Hall to examine the facility and witness the condition under which City employees must work before taking a position as to the need for a new City Hall. A question arose from the audience as to whether the streets to be overlayed would be overlayed one side at a time. Graham stated that customarily a street is overlayed one side at a time to minimize the time that residents are inconvenienced by the project.

City Planner Bergly commented that Planning Commission, staff and Council has been working on a revised zoning ordinance for about three years and a revised sign ordinance for about 1-1/2 years. He added that over the last several months, the proposed revisions have been reviewed and revised several times to iron out all the details. Council was in receipt of the proposed draft Zoning Ordinance and Sign Ordinance in bound book form dated March 8 , 1993. Bergly reported that the draft was compil ed for purposes of this public hearing and if counci 1 takes action to approve the ordinances, the drafts will be reviewed for typographical errors and the ordinances will be published as prepared in the draft, incl uding any revisions Council desi1:es. Bergly stated that the Planning Commission, at their April 7, 1993 meeting recommended the following revisions to the March 8, 1993 drafts: - Zoninq Ordinance, section VI-A.5. - be revised as follows: size. In R-I and R-2 District, no accessory structure shall exceed seven hundred twenty eiqht (728) (790) square feet in floor area and for accessory structures located in the rear yard of a . prlncipa 1 structure, the total floor area of all such accessory structures shall not exceed twenty- five (25) percent of the minimum required rear yard area for the principal structure. ----..-....-- .

(REMAINDER OF SECTION RENUMBERED ACCORDINGLY.) Bergly also stated that he recommends the "Landscape Plan" section of the Zoning Ordinance be revised to incorporate the following items: - Zoninq Ordinance, Appendix A, Landscape Plan - add enumerated items 7 - 9 as follows: 7 . Plant materials existing on a site at the time of development or expansion of structures, may be used as a credit against the requirements of these landscape regulations; the City Council shall determine the extent of the credit allowed, based on an evaluation of species, size! location, quality of existing plant materials and the consistency with the intent of these regulations. 8 . A reasonable attempt shall be made to protect and preserve trees and incorporate them into the landscape plan. . . Arden Hills council 11 April 12, 1993 9. A landscape performance bond or other acceptable surety is required for all screening or landscaping required in this ordinance. a. The amount of the bond shall be 125% of the cost of materials and installation. b. The bond shall be provided prior to the issuance of any building permits and shall be valid for one full year from the date of installation. Councilmember Aplikowski referred to Sign Ordinance, Section IX.I.3.c,3. which indicated that an annual permit and fee shall be valid for up to three special events within 12 months of the permit for school, church, and civic organizations. She questioned whether that section correctly reflects the City's intent. Bergly said that the matter of special event permits was reviewed by Planning Commission and the language in the draft reflects their intent. Councilmember Malone said the policy of allowing three special events in a year has been . in practice for a while, and appears to be working well. He recalled that prior to establishing that policy, all special event signs had to come before Council for approval. Mayor Sather invited public input. There was no one present to make comment. The public hearing was closed at 9:02 p,m. Councilmember Probst stated that he supports adoption of the revised Zoning Ordinance. He added that at the Planning Commission level there were very few comments from the public, except with regard to regulations for exterior storage and parking of recreational vehicles. He noted that this final draft incorporates regulations with regard to the lengths of recreational vehicles. councilmember Malone said he believes the Planning Commission has been very responsive to the concerns expressed by the public with regard to recreational vehicles. and this final draft will accommodate the vast ma jori ty of recreational vehi cl es . Councilmember Probst asked legal counsel if it would be appropriate to 1 ift the imposed development moratorium after the new Zoning Ordinance is adopted. City Attorney Filla answered yes. . -.--...---.- .

UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS CASE 93-01 - REZONING, AMENDED PUD, FINAL GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN EDGEWATER ESTATES, 3F.D ADDITION Planner Bergly recalled that in February 1993, the Planning Commission and Council approved a Preliminary PUD Plan for Edgewater Estates. He added that the applicant, Paul Keleher, representing Edgewater Estates 3rd Addition, in order to accommodate the proposed townhome development, has requested the following actions: . - A rezoning of the 100' X 150' site (previously the old City lift station site) from R-l to R-3 District - Approval of an amended PUD General Development Plan . Arden Hills council 13 Apri 1 12, 1993 Bergly added that the Planning Commission considered this request at their April 7 regular meeting and, based on the rationale presented by the city Planner, recommended waiver of the development moratorium, approval of the rezoning, and approval of the amended PUD General Development Plan with the following conditions: 1. Submission of an amendment to the Edgewater Estates Townhouse Association By-Laws (and approval of such amendment by the City Attorney) which clearly defines the Association's responsibility for maintaining or replacing landscaping in the drainage and utility easements if the City is required to perform utility maintenance work within the easement which results in damage to the landscaping. 2 . The applicant utilize erosion control methods outlined by the Planning Commission to stabilize soils within 72 hours of completion of final grading of the site. Bergly stated that the applicant has indicated that he accepts the conditions listed above. Bergly suggested the . City Attorney be involved in making sure the conditions are handled properly. Administrator Person stated that approval should be subject to the closing or the property sale. Bergly explained that condition 2 above stems from Planning Commission member Rye's suggestion that, as an erosion control measure! a fast-germinating grass seed be planted to stabilize graded areas. Councilmember Hicks stated that his understanding was that the fast-germinating grass seed is to be used only as an interim measure until the graded areas are sodded. MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Probst, with regard to Case 93-01, Edgewater Estates Third Addition, to waive the development moratorium, and approve a rezone rrom R-1 to R3. Motion carried unanimously (5-0) . Council directed City Attorney to prepare an appropriate rezoning ordinance. MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Hicks, with regard to Case 93-01, Edgewater Estates Third Addition, to approve (subject to the cl osing of the property sale) the Amended PUD, Final General Development Plan for two . additional townhouse units, based on the rationale listed in the City Planner's report dated 4/7/93, with the two conditions noted in bold face print above. Motion carried unanimously (5-0) . . Arden Hills Council 14 April 12, 1993 COUNCIL COMMENTS SIGN AND ZONING ORDINANCES Councilmember Malone thanked the Planning Commission for a superb job in compiling the revised Sign Ordinance and Zoning Ordinance. JOINT USE OF TCAAP PROPERTY Councilmember Probst stated that he is a strong advocate of cooperative efforts toward joint use of the Twin cities Army Ammunitions Plant (TCAAP) property, but he is concerned with language which has appeared in some of the correspondence regarding the property. He cautioned staff to be prepared to respond quickly and appropriately in continued correspondence and discussions regarding the TCAAP property so that the status of the property is properly conveyed. Councilmember Malone commented that it is surprising that although the City of Arden Hills has always been responsible . over the years to deal with matters regarding reviews for various approvals and matters of a tax nature, now some parties apparently do not believe Arden Hills has any control over the TCAAP property even though the State, by its behavior over the years, has acknowledged the City's control. MOTION: Probst moved, seconded by Aplikowski, to direct staff to be prepared to respond quickly and appropriately with regard to continued correspondence and discussion regarding the TCAAP property to assure that the status of the property is properly conveyed. Motion carried unanimously (5-0) . COMMITMENT TO PARKS AND RECREATION Councilmember Probst reported that at the last meeting of the Parks and Recreation Committee, there was concern expressed as to the City's commitment to Parks and Recreation since the departure of former Parks and Recreation Director Buckley. Councilmember Malone recalled that several persons in the Parks and Recreation area approached Council about a year ago with this same concern. He said that to dispel those concerns, he would remind those concerned that the Council's . commitment to Parks and Recreation can be evidenced by recent si gni fi can t increased funding for Parks and Recreation. . . Arden Hills Council 15 April 12, 1993 MOTION: Probst moved, seconded by Hicks, that consistent with recent strategic planning efforts and our vision for the City of Arden Hills, the City Council hereby affi rms its commitment to the Parks and Recreation programs now in place and encourages the expansion of programs within the 1 imita ti on of our financial and personnel resources. Further, that the counci 1 support a deliberative process to assure the selection of the best and most appropriate person(s} to foIL ow Mr. Buckley. Motion carried unanimously (5-0) FREELANCE PEDDLERS Councilmember Malone said he learned that freelance peddlers were in the City over the Easter weekend selling flowers, etc. He expressed his opinion that such activity is unfair to taxpaying businesses in the City, and suggested staff bring this matter to the attention of Ramsey County Sheriff's Department. MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Hicks, to direct staff to . advise Ramsey County Sheriff's Department to aggressively enforce rules against freelance peddlers within the City. Motion carried unanimously (5-0). RESPONSE TO CITIZEN LETTERS Councilmember Hicks referred to comments received this evening during the 1993 Pavement Maintenance public hearing to the effect that citizens have sent correspondence to the City and received no response. He said he believes the City does a good job responding to citizens, and it is an important public relations effort to do so. He suggested that staff respond to all citizen correspondence informing the writer as to when their concern will be addressed, or at a minimum to inform the writer that their letter was received. Counci 1 concurred. AD.mURN MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Hicks, to adjourn the meeting at 9:27 p.m. Motion carried unanimously (5-0), Thomas R. Sather, Mayor Dorothy A.

RESOLUTION RELATING TO DEVELOPMENT DISTRlcr NO.1, TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRlcr NO.3; ADOPTING AN AMENDMENT TO TIlE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM AND APPROVING A TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN THEREFOR AND THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Arden Hills, Minnesota (the "City"), as follows: Section 1. Recitals. 1.01. The City, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.124 to 469.134, as amended, has designated a development district within the City, denominated Development District No.1 (the "Development District"), adopted a development program therefor (as amended to date, the "Original Development Program"), and has established two tax increment fmancing districts therein. Officers of the City and Ehlers and Associates, Inc. have prepared an amendment to the Original Development Program for the Development District, denominated the Modified Development Program for Development District No. 1 (as so amended, the "Development Program"), which authorizes additional development activities within the Development District. The Development Program has been transmitted to the planning agency of the City, which has determined that the Development Program conforms to the general plan for the development of the City. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.126, the adoption of the Development Program . is for the consideration of this Council. On Apri126, 1993, this Council conducted a public hearing on the desirability of adopting the Development Program. Notice of the public hearing was dulypublishedasrequiredby.lawin New Bri~hton Bulletin , the official newspaperoftheCity,on 4/14 ,1993. 1.02. Pursuant to the Minnesota Tax Increment Financing Act, Minrtesota Statutes, Sections 469.174 to 469.179, as amended (the "Act"), officers of the City and Ehlers and Associates, Inc. have prepared a tax increment financing plan (the "Plan"), which is now before this Council for approval. The Plan was prepared in conjunction with the amendment to the Original Development Program referred to in Section 1.01 and is the proposed method for financing the development activities currently proposed to be undertaken pursuant to the Development Program. The proposed tax increment financing district (the "District") comprises certain property within the Development District as described in the Plan. 1.03. Members of the Board of County Commissioners of Ramsey County and of the Board of Education of Independent School District No. 621 have been given an opportunity to meet with the City and comment on the Plan. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, Subdivision 3, this Council on April 26, 1993, conducted a public hearing on the desirability of approving the Plan, in conjunction with the public hearing conducted on the proposed Re~eiEFmeWtProgrifu11 :NR:tic~ of the public hearing was duly publish17\ required by law in the ~g OTI U e ~1fue official newspaper of the City, on 4 ,1993. Section 2. Adoption of Develonment ProlP"am. On the basis of the proposed Development Program prepared by officers of the City and the information elicited from consultation with the planning agency and at the public hearing referred to in Section 1.01, it is hereby found, determined and declared: . --..-- .~ . 2.01. The Council hereby determines and declares that there is a need for new development in that part of the City comprising the District to provide employment opportunities, to improve the tax base and to improve the general economy of the state. The Development Program proposes that the City pay for the costs of the acquisition of certain property and the construction and installation of certain site and utility improvements to encourage the construction of a low and moderate income rental housing project in the District. The Council hereby fmds that the proposed Development Program would improve the Development District by encouraging private development of property therein, thereby increasing employment opportunities and the tax base of the City and overlapping taxing jurisdictions. It is in the best interests of the City to adopt the Development Program. 2.02. Upon review of the Development Program, the information elicited from the planning agency and at the public hearing, and on the basis of the findings made in Section 2.01, this Council hereby adopts the Development Program and orders that the Development Program be placed on file in the office of the City Clerk. Section 3. A1;Jproval of Tax Increment Financin2' Plan for the District. On the basis of the Plan and the information elicited at the public hearing referred to in Section 1.03, it is hereby found, determined and declared: 3.01. The Plan provides the means to finance certain capital and administrative costs of the Development District, including the acquisition and improvement of the property located in the District. The Plan contains a statement of objectives for the improvement of the Development District, a statement as to the development program for the District and a statement of the property within the Development District which the City intends to acquire. The Plan also estimates the capital and administrative costs of the Development District, including the amount of administration . expenses, the amount of bonded indebtedness to be incurred, the sources of revenues to finance or otherwise pay public costs of the District, the most recent net tax capacity of taxable real property within the District, the captured net tax capacity of the District at completion and the duration of the District. The Plan also describes and identifies the development activities to be undertaken or expected to be undertaken in the District. The Plan further contains an estimate of the impact of the proposed tax increment financing on the net tax capacities of all taxing jurisdictions in which the District is located. All the captured tax capacity is necessary for the objectives of the District. 3.02. This Council hereby finds that the District is a geographic area within a "project" as defmed in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 8, and is a proper tax increment financing district within the meaning of Section 469.174, Subdivision 9. The Council further fmds that the establishment of the District is in the public interest because the project to be undertaken therein is intended for occupancy, in part, by persons or families of low and moderate income, as defined in federal housing statutes, and no part of the project consists of commercial or other uses. Therefore, the District qualifies as a "housing district" within the meaning of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 11. The income limitations of Section 469.1761 of the Act are applicable to tenants in the project, because the District is not located in a targeted area as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 462C.02, Subdivision 9, clause (e). 3.03. This Council hereby finds that the proposed low and moderate income rental housing project to be encouraged pursuant to the Development Program would not, in the opinion of this Council, occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future and that therefore the use of tax increment financing is deemed necessary. No developer has . -3- ..-- . . expressed an interest in developing the unimproved land that comprises the District. Without tax increment financing of the costs of the land acquisition and site and utility improvements proposed by the Development Program, private investment would not develop the District within the reasonably foreseeable future. 3.04. This Council hereby fmds that the Plan conforms to the general plan for the development of the City as a whole. Under the general plan for the development of the City the District is zoned R - 3 , permitting the uses proposed by the Development Program. 3.05. This Council hereby finds that the Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the development of the District by private enterprise. The development activities contemplated in the Development Program would provide an opportunity for a significant increase in employment opportunities in the City and enhance the tax base of the City. 3.06. Upon review of the Plan, the information elicited at the public hearing and on the basis of the fmdings in Sections 3.0 I to 3.05, this Council hereby approves the Plan and the establishment of the District as a tax increment financing district in the City, to be denominated "Tax Increment Financing District No.3." Section 4. Filin2'. The City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to me the Plan and the Development Program with the Commissioner of Revenue as required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, Subdivision 2. Section 5. ImDlementation of Develollment Prol1Tam and Annroval of Documents. The . Council authorizes and directs officers of the City to proceed with implementation of the Development Program, and to negotiate, draft, prepare and present to this Council for its consideration all further plans, resolutions, documents and contracts necessary for this purpose. In this regard, there has been presented to this Council: (1) a draft of a Contract for Private Development in Development District No. I (the "Contract for Development") proposed to be entered into between the City and Cottage Lifestyles Incorporated (the "Company"), pursuant to which the City would agree to finance the acquisition of the project site and certain site and utility improvements relating thereto by reimbursing the Company for such costs from available tax increment revenues from the District, and the Company would agree to undertake development of the rental housing project; and (2) a draft of a Declaration of Covenants (the "Declaration") to be executed by the Company and to implement the income requirements of Section 469.1761 of the Act. The forms of the Contract for Development and the Declaration are hereby approved and the Mayor and the City Administrator are hereby authorized and directed to execute the Contract for Development on behalf of tbe City, with such modifications and amendments thereof and deletions . therefrom as the Mayor or the City Attorney shall approve. The execution of the Contract for . -4- . ," I . Development by such officers of the City, or other appropriate officers acting in their capacities in the events of their absence or disability, shall be conclusive evidence of the approval of and authorization by the City and this Council of the Contract of Development so executed and of the Declaration.

The enclosed amount represents 10% of this quarter's net profit after taxes. Because we were unable to operate bingo during the month of January, our contribution is much smaller than normal. However, we did make our usual donation of $3,000 during the first quarter to the .. City of Arden Hills Parks and Recreation Department. Copies of the January, February, and March 1993 Minnesota monthly tax returns are attached. These documents verify our organization's charitable gambling activity within the City of Arden Hills during this past quarter. Furthermore, we are pleased to report that the Light Brigade has made lawful purpose donations of $33,014 during the first quarter, of which $27,414 (83%) was made in the Arden Hills trade area.
