It <br /> Th 9 P <br /> is anticipated that active marketing of this property would commence in the Spring of 1998. <br /> TC <br /> The Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant(TCAAP)is approximately 2,370 acres of land which occupies the northern tyro-thirds of the City of Arden Hills. The TCAAP is one of the largest undeveloped pieces of property within the MUSA <br /> in the win Cities Metropolitan Area.The City of Arden Hills has been facilitating the arderlyr re�deployrnent of defense created assets to activities which will create assets which will help restructure and strengthen the Gityr's economic base. The <br /> completion of the City's update to its Comprehensive Plan,along with implementation measures,is essential to protecting and enhancing the City's role in guiding the future reuse and redevelopment of TCAAP. The access to TCAAP will be <br /> phased to facilitate the transition from federal to private ownership and to allow for the required clean up of polluted portions of the site. <br /> The TCAAP has several designated Federal Superfund sites where removal of contamination is occurring. The sites taken together form the largest Superfund project in the State of Minnesota,although they geographically occupy less than one <br /> half of one percent of TCAAP. To date,the Department of Defense has spent In excess of$114,000,000 to remediate the contamination at TCAAP. <br /> The Environmental Restoration Program at TCAAP marked a milestone in November 1991,when the Rernedial investigation Phase of work was completed. This is the phase in which studies are conducted to determine what the contaminants <br /> are,where the sources of contamination are located,where the contamination plumes are headed,and what the risks are to the environment and public health.in the Spring of 1997,the U.S.Array, EPA and MnPCA adopted the Retard of <br /> Decision on the Remedial Action Plan. <br /> In 1994 the City created the TGAAP Task Force to plan for the reuse and redevelopment of TGAAP. Also in 1994,Congressman Bruce Vento,who represents Minnesota's 4th Congressional District, appointed the TCAAP Reu#ilization <br /> Committee in the summer of 1994. A major issue that confronted the City was building support for a single reuse plan,so as to avoid confusion and conflict. The imperative working relationship between the TGAAP Re-Utilization Committee <br /> and the Arden Hills Task Force ultimately,allowed for the committee and the task force#o recommend land use plans which were generally consistent with each other. The re-utilization plan provides for approximately 250 acres of commerciai- <br /> industrial uses,which when fWlyv Implemented would have a market value in exrem of$1.2 billion and would generate in excess of$63 million annually in property tax revenue. Ho wever,the infrastructure required to facilitate this development <br /> would be equally large and could not be funded with current tax revenues. Therefore,the use of TIF maybe required to fully implement the redevelopment of this key resource of the metropolf#an area. <br /> Albunds IIIIIIIIIII6u!IIIIUIII�IIIR';��°11�;81uudlllll��,IId1111111�IIIUuIIIIIUdIPll�lllllk�°I�IIII!u�lll!!!Illlilll�'91116mlllllldllP6111111„,11111,91111UII°IIIIIIIII <br /> View Business Ph A Tax Incramertit Redevelopment District was established in 1995 which resulted in the development of 90+acres.

The addition of this project has helped the retail cantors in the area.The need for quality senior housing was <br /> identified by a community visioning process ire 1994. Since its construction there has been a waiting list of over 100 people. Currently there are development plans for a second senior housing building that will provide limited assisted care in the <br /> area. <br /> The City used tax increment funds to finance a study of Highway 10. This study was prompted by suggestions for redevelopment areas and potential uses that would meet the needs of the community. There are currently four large <br /> development proposals which includes office development,senior housing,rehabilitation of multi-family housing,hotel/conference center,entertainment complex and restaurant developments.

The purpose of the Tie=was to assist with special assessments and land write-down. <br /> 81aind Courts,located at 701-85th Avenue NE,together with the North Court Shopping Center,was established as a redevelopment project. Thirty-eight past-World War II properties were acquired. The Land was sold to the shopping center <br /> developer and Blaine Courts was constructed by the Blaine EDA. TIF from the project was used to partially pay bands used to construct the senior facility.initial rent for a one-bedroom apartment in 1991 was$410 per month.The aurrent rent is <br /> $454.

As a result,there is a restaurant,a bank and a small office building. <br /> The City,continues to own about an acre-sized parcel in that area,for which it is seeking an office development. The largest portion of the district is the north Bids of Lake Drive. There are about 45 units that were originally built as temporary <br /> hoursing,at one paint utilized as a motel and now small apartments. They need to be razed or significantly rehabbed to continue as viable housing units. It is the City's hope that in the next five years it would be able to assist with TIF dollars to <br /> have more commercial development on that corner. The district has recently been expanded to include deteriorating housing in an adjoining residential area. <br /> Synior Housina_Distriot-tat,Drive and Pine Drive Circle Pines'second district was established to assist a prima#e developer in constructing senior housing. In atddi#lon to TIF, assistance came from the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency <br /> through their tax credit program. This was a five-pear process to solidify the funding.The principal goal for the district has been to provide an alternative for senior citizens of Circle Pines who desired to continue living in the community,but were <br /> no longer able to maintain their single family homes.

The property,and surrounding area within the district <br /> included a number of blighted buildings and non-conforming uses which qualified as a redevelopment district,allowing for the creation of a district for a maximum Iife of twenty,-five years.Because the develOPMGnt that created new employment <br /> opportunities and added tax base,the City,approved a plan to use the tax increment generated by the development to reimburse Deluxe for its cost of acquiring land.The City issued a revenue note to Deluxe in the original amount of$8,9 <br /> million,payable from the tax increment proceeds from the original development. <br /> Deluxe agreed to construot a planned unit development totaling 750,000 square fset consistent with th e terms of the development agreement including building size,value and tuning. Deluxe had been aggressively pursued by other states.Tax <br /> increment assistance allowed the City to provide a competitive incentive to allow Deluxe to remain in our community. <br /> University of 1116n esots The University of Minnesota owns a 209 acre vacant parcel of land in Shoreview at the southeast quadrant of 1-35W and County Road J. Immediately south of the property is another 23 acre parcel owned by <br /> the Minnesota Department of Transportation,which is presently being used as a storage site. The University has been actively trying to sell the property as one parcel to a development firm that will meet the objectives of the City, <br /> The City's Comprehensive Guide Plan deslgnates the property for Business Park and Office development,with some supporting commercial uses allowable near the freeway interchange. The City,and the University have jointly commissioned a <br /> comprehensive traffic study of the property,to project various development impacts and determine necessary,road and access improvements to the area to support anticipated development.The preliminary findings of the study suggest that <br /> there will be a need for significant traffic improvements made in the surrounding area and on-site infrastructure to support traffic in the area.These improvements are Gritical to job creation and a diversified tax bass for the north suburban area. <br /> The ability,to utilize tax increment financing is an essential tool to achieving Shoreview's goal of a high-quality,well-designed business park that will further strengthen and diversity,our tax base. <br /> 1 <br />
