5. Use of Tax Increments. The City finds and determines that the activities <br />to be financed by the tax increments from the Tax Increment District will carry out the objectives <br />of Development District No. 1, the Redevelopment Project Area and Industrial Development <br />District No. 1 set forth in the Development Program. <br />6. Public Purpose. The provisions for the development and redevelopment <br />of Development District No. 1, the Redevelopment Project Area and Industrial Development <br />District No. 1 are in the public interest of the City and the expenditures of revenues of the Tax <br />Increment District are for a public purpose. <br />7. Adoption of Tax Increment Plan Amendments. The Tax Increment Plan <br />amendment by supplement set forth in the Program and Plans, having been duly reviewed and <br />considered, is hereby approved and adopted. The duration of the Tax Increment District is <br />hereby determined to be, and confirmed to be, December 31, 2009. If the City has taken action <br />earlier to limit such duration to an earlier date, such earlier action is hereby repealed and the <br />duration of the Tax Increment District is hereby extended to December 31, 2009. <br />8. Required Findings for Tax Increment Plan Amendments. The City hereby <br />makes the following findings required to be made by the City in approving the amendment by <br />supplement to the Tax Increment Plan: <br />(1) the Tax Increment District is a redevelopment district; and <br />(2) the development and redevelopment proposed for the Tax Increment <br />District, in the opinion of the City, would not reasonably be expected to occur solely <br />through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future; and <br />(3) the City need not find that the increased market value of the site that could <br />reasonably be expected to occur without the use of tax increment financing would. be less <br />than the increase in the market value estimated to result from the proposed development <br />after subtracting the present value of the projected tax increments for the maximum <br />duration of the Tax Increment District permitted by the Tax Increment Plan; and <br />(4) the Tax Increment Plan conforms to the general plan for the development <br />or redevelopment of the City as a whole; and <br />(5) the Tax Increment Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with <br />the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the development and redevelopment of <br />Development District No. 1, the Redevelopment Project Area and Industrial <br />Development District No. 1 by private enterprise; and <br />(6) the City confirms its past election of a method of computation of tax <br />increments under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, Subdivision 3, clause (b). <br />The reasons and supporting facts for each of the above findings and <br />determinations are set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto and by this reference incorporated <br />herein as if stated fully herein, and are hereby confirmed, approved and adopted. <br />2116002v3 4 <br />
