A RESOLUTION GRANTING A SUBDIVISION WAIVER TO
RICHFIELD STATE AGENCY AND AUTHORIZING THE SPLIT
OF TAX PARCEL 27-028-24 32 0128
WHEREAS, Richfield State Agency is the fee owner of certain real estate (the
"Property") located in Hennepin County, Minnesota, having tax identification number 27-028-
24320128 and legally described as follows:
Lot 2, Block 1, RICHFIELD URBAN VILLAGE, according to the recorded plat
thereof, Hennepin County, Minnesota
WHEREAS, the Property is located entirely within the tax increment financing district
known as Urban Village Tax Increment Financing District; and
WHEREAS, a portion of the Property is occupied by a medical clinic, and the medical
clinic portion was not intended to be included in the Urban Village Tax Increment Financing
District; and
WHEREAS, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
(the "HRA") intends to take the necessary actions to remove from the Urban Village Tax
Increment Financing District that portion of the Property occupied by the medical clinic; and
WHEREAS, the division of the Property into separate tax parcels is necessary in order
to accomplish the removal of the medical clinic from the Urban Village Tax Increment
Financing District; and
WHEREAS, division of the Property into separate tax parcels would constitute a
subdivision of land under the City's subdivision regulations; and
WHEREAS, compliance with the subdivision regulations would impose an
unnecessary hardship on the owner of the Property, because the owner was not aware of the
need to exclude the medical clinic from the tax increment district at the time of platting.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
RICHFIELD:
1. The City Council finds that requiring compliance with the City's subdivision
regulations would create an unnecessary hardship, within the meaning of Minnesota
Statutes, Section 462.358, subdivision 4b.
2. The City Council further finds that failure to comply with the subdivision
requirements before dividing the tax parcel does not interfere with the purpose of the City's
subdivision regulations.
3. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 462.358, subdivision 4b and Section
272.162, subdivision 2, the City Council waives compliance with its subdivision regulations for
the division of the Property into Parcels A and B as described on the attached Exhibit A.
