B-4. B-5 and Interchange Tax Increment Financing Districts. I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: By Motion: Adopt the attached resolution approving a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for the Richfield Redevelopment Project Area and a Modification to the Tax Increment Financing Plans for the Interstate-Lyndale-Nicollet (ILN), Richfield Rediscovered A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, A-5, B-1, B-2, B-3, B-4, B-5 and Interchange Tax Increment Financing Districts. II. BACKGROUND On May 17, 2004, the Richfield Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) was presented with the annual Tax Increment District Status Update report (TIF Status Report). The report indicated that all projects continued to meet debt obligations. This report forecast that the Interstate-Lyndale-Nicollet (ILN) Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District which has four Pay-as-you-go TIF Notes and two bonds outstanding is able to meet all of its obligations through the year 2006. Beginning in 2007 and going forward, the forecast indicated the ILN district faces potential increment deficits and may need assistance from other districts in order to meet its financial obligations. Property tax class rate changes beginning in 1997 have led to lower increment revenues impacting many districts across the State. In 1999, the Minnesota State Legislature authorized additional pooling (that is, spending increment outside the TIF district generating the increment) to address these deficits. Recently, the Office of State Auditor issued an opinion that concurs with the State Department of Revenue and other professionals that work in the tax increment field with regard to the intent and use of the deficit pooling provision of the Minnesota State Statutes. The current proposal to modify the Richfield Redevelopment Project Area Plan and TIF Plans relating to the ILN, Richfield Rediscovered A-1 through B-5, and Interchange TIF Districts would allow pooling increment to the ILN District so that the ILN District could continue to meet its future financial obligations. The HRA's financial consultant, Ehlers and Associates recently conducted a deficit pooling analysis that indicated a possible $1,000,000 cumulative shortfall from 2007 through 2011. Reductions in increment revenue potential can result from changes in property market values, tax capacity rates, and fiscal disparity contribution rates. In this situation the reductions are attributed to the compression of property tax class rates over time. In order to suppress the ILN's deficit, the healthier increment districts that were not as negatively impacted by the rate compression may aid the ILN by annual interfund transfers. Within the Richfield Rediscovered A-1 through 6-5 series districts and the Interchange District, it's been forecast that the shortfall would be covered by the pooling. Although this figure is listed within each individual plan, the $1,000,000 represents a collective pooling amount. Annual cashflows for all districts will continue to be prepared and transfers to the ILN district will be made upon need. At the appropriate times, the HRA will be requested to approve these transfers. Currently, the public hearing by the City Council is scheduled for December 14, 2004. Approval of the modified plans would begin the process of ensuring that the ILN district is protected and have a mechanism in place to draw increment from when the need arises. III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. POLICY ® • In accordance with Minnesota State statutes, a public hearing is required for the modifications to the redevelopment plan and tax increment financing plans. • The HRA's TIF Status Report, dated May 15, 2004, proposed these plan modifications to address the potential future increment deficits in the ILN district. • A recent opinion from the Office of the State Auditor solidifies industry opinion on the interpretation of deficit pooling within the Minnesota State statutes. B. CRITICAL ISSUES • The public review process has begun on this matter. A notification of the proposed plan modifications and date of public hearing were made to Hennepin County Commissioner Randy Johnson by letter on October 28, 2004. Also, the notification of fiscal/economic implications to School Board and County Auditor/County Board is scheduled, at time of this writing, to be made by letter on November 12, 2004. (There are no negative impacts with this proposal.) • The proposed schedule calls for the following actions to still occur: Planning Commission review and consideration of plan modifications to conformance with City's Comprehensive Plan on November 22, 2004; Publication of notice of public hearing in local newspaper on December 2, 2004; and City Council public hearing and review and consideration of plan modifications on December 14, 2004. C. FINANCIAL • The 2004 HRA Tax Increment District Status Update report provided a proforma that forecast that the ILN TIF District would need to receive increment beginning in 2007 from other districts to continue to meet future debt obligations. • In order to memorialize cash balances for special uses of increment, which are in accordance with the State Auditor's opinion, the HRA needs to take this action in 2004. D. LEGAL • The plan modifications and approving resolution were prepared by the HRA's financial consultant, Ehlers and Associates, and attorneys, Kennedy & Graven. IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATIONS) • The HRA may determine to delay this matter until a future date, still this year. Doing so, however, would require potential special meetings by approving bodies (HRA, Planning Commission, City Council, School and County Boards) in order to meet proper noticing requirements. • The HRA may determine to delay this matter until a future date and not this year. Doing so, however, may not allow for special uses of increment in accordance with the HRA's auditors and legal counsel's opinion in a timely manner to assist the ILN. • The HRA may determine not to take action on this matter. Undertaking this alternative could jeopardize the ability of the ILN to meet its bond and TIF Note obligations. V. ATTACHMENTS • Resolution • Modified Redevelopment Project Area Plan and TIF Plans VI. PRINCIPAL PARTIES EXPECTED AT MEETING • Sid Inman, Ehlers and Associates, Inc. HRA RESOLUTION NO.

The district shall remain in existence until all of the "deficit poolable funds" have been expended as set forth in the plan. The tax increment to be deficit pooled from this district is intended to be used for preexisting obligations in the ILN Tax Increment Financing District. Existing obligations include the $5,075,000 General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds, Series 1996. This bond was refunded by the $2,460,000 Taxable General Obligation Tax Increment Refunding Bonds, Series 2002B, to achieve a lower interest rate. The preexisting obligations are estimated to be $3,013,633 (principal and interest). It is estimated that $1,140,669 in bonded indebtedness will be fmanced with tax increment revenues. It is estimated that up to $1,000,000 in interfund loans/transfers will be fmanced with tax increment revenues. At the time of the interfund loan/transfer, the City will complete a line item budget modification to the TIF Plan. ~~ Richfield HRA Modification to the TIF Plan for the Richfield Rediswvered A-1 TIF District 1-1 APPENDIX A MAP OF THE RICHFIELD REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA AND THE RICHFIELD REDISCOVERED A-1 TIF DISTRICT Richfield HRA Modification to the TIF Plan for the Richfield Rediscovered A-1 TIF District A-1 0 _V ava3o 418 41[t ~_ wet Q OlONIWOOl6 ~` 45L YNL 4Mt ~ vlz~ ~ ~« z ~0` ,ome V oov~na snermioo XaVd WIND111O ONV11a0d ' + ~ 41S W Z N~~N~ ~ ~ W sN3A313 ~ ~ ~~ 131lOOIN Z Z ,mama W ~ +iaon~ueM ~ ~ ~,~~ ~ E- J r ,slaavN Q a~aao ^ 31vaN.i~ W ~ N:,IaO'IV Q a/ ix,aae W ~• XYe700 ~ G ~a Q W NOSa3N[3 J ~ W W °"~"~' ~ > lvioewnN = O ONIALI S3YIVI' V V~~ XONN ~ NVflOI O Nwaon W/ No.uv~ Sin a3N10 Q NNSd N33n0 (V ~sssna ~ NYOIM3HS S 1 Nolan /n/~./ iN3;N11A Sjn Nan6NSyM ',..

I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: By Motion: Approve the attached Resolution that releases the amount of secured funds provided for in an Assignment of Deposit Account between the Housing and Redevelopment Authority and Gramercy Corporation. II. BACKGROUND In December 2002 the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) notified tenants in the Checker Auto and Trestman Music buildings that they may be eligible for relocation benefits. Gramercy Corporation pledged $155,000 in a deposit account to secure Gramercy's obligation to the HRA to pay costs related to the condemnation/relocation process. All claims have been settled that were filed within 18 months of the HRA's notice of eligibility with the exception of one claim for $1,800 which expires on November 30,2004. At least one tenant did not submit a claim after multiple contacts. A claim is not expected to be submitted. 111504 City Bella Project Gramercy Corporation has paid all claims that have been filed. In May 2004, the HRA's relocation consultant recommended that the amount on deposit be reduced `~._J from $155,000 to $107,500. Sufficient funds have remained on deposit to cover outstanding claims and are no longer needed. III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. POLICY • The actions of the HRA and Gramercy Corporation are based on a Contract for Private Redevelopment, as amended and restated and an Assignment of Deposit Account Agreement. • All Contract and Agreement conditions have been met to date. B. CRITICAL ISSUES • Gramercy Corporation has requested the HRA to release the remaining amount ($107,500) on deposit. The release is a reasonable request given that all approved claims have been paid. • The Resolution further recognizes that if a claim should be submitted at some time in the future, Gramercy Corporation remains responsible. C. FINANCIAL • The developer's financial obligation has been met. D. LEGAL • Legal Counsel prepared the Resolution for release of funds. • Legal Counsel concurs with the Relocation Consultant's determination that all claims have been processed. IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION~S~ • The HRA could choose to not release the secured amount. V. ATTACHMENTS • Resolution VI. PRINCIPAL PARTIES EXPECTED AT MEETING • N/A r HRA RESOLUTION NO.

Gramercy Corporation and the Secured Party have agreed that the balance of funds in the account may be released as hereinafter provided. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield, as follows: • That Gramercy Corporation is hereby released from the obligations of the .Assignment of Account and Rights to Payments; except that $2,500 will be retained until December 1, 2004 and released thereafter if no claim is filed by November 30, 2004. • The amount of the release as of the date of this resolution is $105,000. • An additional amount of $2,500 is to be released on or after December 1, 2004 if no claim is filed by November 30, 2004. The $2,500 may be released without further action of the HRA. • This action does not relieve Gramercy Corporation obligations to make payments for relocation claims should they arise. • The Chair and Executive Director are authorized to take all steps necessary to effectuate the release of funds Approved by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield, Minnesota this 15th day of November, 2004 Thomas E.

BACKGROUND In 1999, the Richfield Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) entered into a Contract for Private Development with Richfield Senior Housing (RSH) for the Mainstreet Village development. That Contract identified a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) pay-as- you-go payment to RSH in the amount of $4,155,944. RSH utilized the cash proceeds of a Housing Bond to fund their development of the project. As part of the terms of RSH's Housing Bond, they pledged the TIF. pay-as-you-go payment to the trustee of the bond. The HRA, therefore, consented to RSH's assignment of the TIF pay-as-you-go note to the trustee for the Housing Bond. Earlier this year, RSH negotiated the terms of the refinancing of their Housing Bond. This refinancing has financial benefits to the developer as well as the benefit to the HRA of a payoff of an HRA loan of approximately $338,000 that was established due to "unforeseen 111504 rsh condemnation costs." As part of their refinancing, the new trustee of the Housing Bond (U.S. Bank National Association) is requiring that the Note be reassigned to them. III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A.

The close involvement of local stakehold- ers ensured that the finished product carried out the goals of the broader community. Careful attention to architectural detail creates a visually interesting streetscape and reinforces the historic nature of the downtown area. By bringing residents to Main Street Hopkins, Marketplace Lofts has brought new life to this suburban downtown and serves as an excellent example of small-scale downtown revitalization. Neighborhood Housing Infill -New Bridge, St. Paul .This residential urban infill development employed New Urbanist prin- ciples of small lot sizes, front porches, rear garages, sidewalks and nar- row streets to increase the density and livability of this neighborhood. The style of the homes compliments that of the surrounding St. Paul neighborhoods and brings the amenities of association-maintained liv- ing to the City.The relatively high density of the development kept housing costs down and allowed for.. much. of the adjacent open space to be preserved." Neighborhood Housing and Workplace Infill -Excelsior Tech Center and Regency Development, Hopkins This project renovated the abandoned Alliant Techsystems defense plant into amixed-business center that includes .office, space, ware- house/manufacturing space, mini-storage and production'space.A neighborhood with rowhomes and detached townhomes was con- structed on the surface parking lots bringing additional housing adjacent to this job center.The homes reflect the architectural style of a nearby historic neighborhood with rear garages,. front porches and sidewalks connecting the neighborhood to a regional trail system.This creative solution to a difficult problem has brought housing and jobs together and turned. a blighted industrial. property into a community amenity without the use of public subsidies. 4 Town Center Redevelopment -Excelsior and Grand, St. Louis Park This extensive- redevelopment of Excelsior Boulevard incorporates retail space, mixed income housing, a park, amphitheater, and com- munity gathering space to implement the community's vision of a walkable town center. By paying careful attention to the needs of all users, Excelsior and Grand has created both a strong public realm for the community and private amenities for its residents.The suc- cess of this project demonstrates how a thoughtful integration of uses can transform a blighted, suburban arterial into an active, thriv- ing town center. Town Center Infill -Woodlake Centre, Richfield The City of Richfield undertook the redevelopment of Woodlake Centre as one step in implementing the City's town center revital- ization plan. Selective infill was used to improve the street presence of the .existing buildings at this prominent intersection that was once dominated by surface parking.The construction of a parking ramp on-site created room for an assisted living facility as well as a public plaza and sculpture garden.Townhomes with a mix of mar- . ket-rate and affordable. rents were constructed on an adjacent par- 'cel increasing housing choices in Richfield's downtown area. Woodlake Centre is an excellent example of using selective infill to transform aloes-density, single-use site into a dense, mixed-use urban .center.
