HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY HRA Letter No.62 Agenda September 20, 1999 Issue Statement: Authorization of a resolution authorizing the purchase of 7241 Second Avenue under the Richfield Rediscovered Program. Background: The property at 7241 Second Avenue has been identified for purchase under the Richfield Rediscovered Program. The 560 sq. ft. house has no basement. Although floor and wall coverings have been updated, the restricted size and layout limit opportunity for remodeling or an addition. Due to the continued strength of the housing market, values of even very small properties remain high. The property was appraised at $79,000. However, the owner is interested in selling at $70,000 due to several code repairs that would otherwise be required. Recommended Motion: Adopt the attached resolution authorizing: 1. The purchase of the property at 7241 Second Avenue for $70,000. 2. The Acting Executive Director and HRA Chairperson to execute a Purchase Agreement and other documents to effectuate the purchase. Basis of Recommendation; 1. The property meets program requirements for acquisition. 2. Funding for Richfield Rediscovered acquisitions has been approved. The actual purchase of this property is contingent upon receipt of funds. 3. The owner has voluntarily indicated an interest in selling the property to the HRA. 4. Purchase has been negotiated based on a reduction of the estimated market value. Alternative Recommendation: Do not authorize acquisition. Discussion/Decision Mode: The purchase agreement is ready to be prepared in final form. R p ctf Ily submi , vi Acting Executive Direc or SLD:ds HRA RESOLUTION NO.

Harms, Chair ATTEST: Michael Sandahl, Secretary U HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY • HRA Letter No.6i Agenda September 20, 1999 Issue Statement: Consideration of a City Council resolution authorizing continued participation in the Livable Communities Act programs administered by the Metropolitan Council. Background: The Livable Communities Program (also known as "The Local Housing Incentive Account Program") is a 15 year housing goal strategy encouraging communities in the region to provide more diverse housing options. As part of the program, Richfield has identified and is committed to accomplishing the attached housing goals. The goals and the principles on which they are based were originally approved in 1996. The state legislature requires communities to annually renew their resolution to continue participation in the Livable Communities Program. A copy of the resolution the Council will act on is attached. The City has approved renewal each year since 1996, recognizing that participation has allowed Richfield to remain competitive in securing state and regionally distributed funds.. With the availability of secured funds, Richfield has made significant progress towards its housing goals: • Thirteen new homes were constructed this past year through the Richfield Rediscovered program (twelve with a market value of over $150,000). The Transformation Homes loan program allowed fifteen households to remodel in excess of $50,000. • .More than 500 housing units will be available in 2000 as part of the Gramercy Park, Urban Village and Lyndale Gateway developments; offering a variety of owner/rental townhouse, life cycle and replacement housing choices. • Apartment choices have been preserved and enhanced. By the end of the year, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) through a Livable Communities grant award from the Metropolitan Council, will have distributed over $300,000 in deferred loans and grants to apartment owners to facilitate reinvestment in rental properties. The apartment building at 901 East 66th Street illustrates the success of this program in enhancing the livability and visual quality of Richfield's older rental housing. The grant money has also allowed two larger apartment communities to make significant property improvements, creating a positive neighborhood environment, improving security, reducing blight and encouraging good management. Hampton Place Apartments is a good example; with the new play ground and parking improvements already completed. • A variety of affordable housing opportunities are available through the HRA's first- time homebuyer program, Hennepin Technical College construction and Habitat for Humanity projects. A summary of Richfield's affordability performance is attached in the document entitled "Affordable Housing Opportunities in Richfield". Recommended Motion: • Adopt a motion recommending that the City Council adopt the resolution authorizing continued participation in the calendar year 2000 in the Local Housing Incentive Account Program under the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act. Basis of Recommendation: 1. Program participation and established housing goals for Richfield remain consistent with community goals. The Metropolitan Council supports the goals. 2. Participation keeps Richfield competitive in securing state and regional community development resources. 3. Policies may change as a result of recommendations made by the Replacement Affordable Housing Task Force. Those changes could be implemented for the 2001 Livable Communities Program. Alternative Recommendation: 1. Withdraw from participation; however, funding applications would no longer be competitive. 2. Modify the housing goals; however, decisions on housing policies are required now for Year 2000 and the outcomes of Replacement Affordable Housing Task Force won't be known until early next year for the HRA to further consider. Discussion/Decision Mode: The Metropolitan Council must be informed of Richfield's plans to participate prior to November 15, 1999. This has been placed on the September 20, 1999 HRA agenda and, after approval, will be placed on the Consent Calendar for the September 27, 1999 Council meeting.

Ferber, City Clerk Exhibit A AFFORDABLE HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES IN RICHFIELD Creating New Homes. / The Richfield HRA is able to purchase substandard or blighted property from voluntary sellers, demolish the existing buildings, and build new homes on the sites. Acquisition and clearance are done with local funds under Richfield Rediscovered; federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) fiords are used for other programs. - Habitat for Humanity builds decent, safe, affordable homes for low income (50% of the median income) homebuyers. Since 1990, 6 Habitat homes have been built in the community. Habitat also has programs that help the new owners learn about maintenance, upkeep, and on being a responsible neighbor. / The HRA cooperates with Hennepin Technical College to build new homes, available for sale to a first-time buyer of moderate income (does not exceed 80% of the area median). One or two homes are built annually under the New Home Program. Since 1990, 16 homes have been built under the program. / Three other new homes have been built for moderate income buyers by a non profit developer. The Richfield Rediscovered Program provides construction opportunities for builder/buyer teams. Some of the affordable opportunities by non-profit developers have occurred under the program, and many market rate opportunities occur. annually. Since 1990, approximately 85 new homes have been built under the program. Finding and Improving Existing Homes. / The federal Section 8 Program provides rental assistance to 340 families in Richfield. Of those, 242 originated in Richfield and 98 have moved to Richfield from other communities. - The Deferred Loan Program provides interest-free loans to low-income homeowners (income does not exceed 50% of the median), so that they may maintain their home. For some, it provides the means they need to stay in the home. Loan funds are available through CDBG funds. Since 1990, approximately 130 loans have been completed. / In 1997, the Fii°st Time Advantage Loan was initiated through funding from the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). Twelve loans have been completed and 3 are underway. Moderate income owners (income does not exceed 80% of the median) who have been in their home for less than a year may be eligible for the loan. Since most first-time buyers have put most of their cash into closing costs and down payment, the loan provides a new home buyer the opportunity to do updating and general improvements. / The Trans formation Program provides incentive for large scale remodeling in Richfield to encourage households to stay in the community. Since the program began in 1993, 58 loans have been provided. Participating households remodeled in excess of $30,000, often times adding square footage which allowed them to stay in the community rather than getting their housing needs met by moving to another community. - Remodeling Advisor services are free and available to all Richfield home owners. The Remodeling Advisor provides technical advice on a particular project, cost estimates, and information on financing options. • Livable Communities Act -- Housing Goals as Determined by the Metropolitan Council • The City of Richfield supports these goals: 1.

Background: Since 1990, the Richfield Rediscovered New Construction Program has provided the vehicle for the purchase and clearance of small, substandard houses and availability of vacant lots for the construction of larger, single family homes. The .demand for this new housing continues. Over time, however, the dynamics of the program has changed such that a new approach to a funding was required in order to sustain the program. To that end, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) and City Council have recently completed actions to provide funding for the next several years. The new 1999 program cycle is specifically aimed at: • Providing a composite list of 33 qualifying candidate properties for acquisition; • Purchasing and demolishing approximately 28 substandard properties (including seven early acquisition properties) over a four year period (or approximately seven per year); • Providing for the construction of approximately seven new homes per year valued at an average market value of $135,000. (This proposed modification incorporates those recent actions of the HRA and City Council with regards to financing and updates the list of candidate properties that could be purchased by the program.); • Generating land sale proceeds in the average amount of $30,000 per lot as a source of program revenue; • Providing a revenue source for 30 to 40 housing renovations under the transformation housing element of the program; • Utilizing the 15 percent housing trust fund revenue source from the Gramercy and Urban Village tax increment projects; • Issuing general obligation tax increment revenue bonds in an amount not to exceed $4,827,586 (over a four year period) with an initial bond issue of $1.7 million; and • Re-evaluating future bonding options after two years. The Redevelopment Plans and Tax Increment Plans under the current proposal are attached for review. The following is a summary of these plans. It is encouraged that the maps, budgets, and cashflows contained within the plans be reviewed in conjunction with this summary. Modification of Richfield Redevelopment Project Area Plan: • Project boundary expansion to incorporate the contours of the former Richfield Rediscovered Project Areas A and B. (The two separate project areas under the program in the past will no longer be used due to funding strategy under the 1999 cycle.) Additional information is located in Appendix A of the Modification to the Redevelopment Plan, attached Exhibit B, six pages from the end of the document. • Identification of 33 scattered sites within the project area which are qualifying, substandard candidate properties for acquisition and redevelopment. Additional information is located in Appendix B of the Modification to the Redevelopment Plan, attached Exhibit B, five pages from the end of the document. Modification to the Gramercy Tax Increment Financing Plan: Budget modification to allow for additional expenditures and the issuance of new debt for the purpose of supporting the Richfield Rediscovered activity. Modification to the Urban Village Tax Increment Financing Plan: Budget modification to allow for additional expenditures and the issuance of new debt for the purpose of supporting the Richfield Rediscovered activity. Establishment of the Richfield Rediscovered 1999. Tax Increment Financing District (redeveloument district: • Creation of a new scattered-site, tax increment redevelopment district consisting of 33 parcels within the modified Richfield Redevelopment Project Area whose term is not to exceed 25 years. • Provision for the acquisition, demolition, and construction of 28 new, single family, market rate homes based on the current funding level. • Establishment of new tax increment sources and uses budgets. • Provision for bonding capacity not to exceed the budgeted amount of $4,827,586.

Subsection 4-2. Statutory Authority Within the City, there exist areas where public involvement is necessary to cause development or redevelopment to occur. To this end, the City and HRA have certain statutory powers pursuant to Minnesota Statutes ("M.S.'), Sections 469.001 through 469.047, inclusive, as amended, and M.S., Sections 469.174 through 469.179, inclusive, as amended (the "Tax Increment Financing Act" or "TIF Act"), to assist in financing public costs related to this project. This Section contains the Tax Increment Financing Plan (the "Plan") for Richfield Rediscovered 1999. Other relevant information is contained in the Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Richfield Redevelopment Project Area. Subsection 4-3.Statement of Objectives Richfield Rediscovered 1999 consists of33parcels oflandand adjacentand internalrights-of--way. Richfield Rediscovered 1999 is created to facilitate the demolition of substandard houses and enable home buyers to construct new houses on the lots through a program known as Richfield Rediscovered, which is administered by the HRA. The funding, as currently proposed, allows for the potential construction of up to 28 new homes. This plan is expected to achieve many of the objectives outlined in the Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Richfield Redevelopment Project Area. The activities contemplated in the present Modification to the Redevelopment Plan and the Tax Increment Financing Plan do not preclude the undertaking of other qualified development or redevelopment activities. These activities are anticipated to occur over the life of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 and Richfield Redevelopment Project Area. Subsection 4-4.Redevelopment Plan Overview Property to beAcquired -Selected property located within RichfieldRediscovered 1999 may be acquired by the City or HRA and is further described in this Plan. Upon approval of a developer's plan relating to the project and completion of the necessary legal requirements, the City or HRA may sell to a developer selected properties that they may acquire within Richfield Rediscovered 1999. The City or HRA may perform or provide for some or all necessary acquisition, construction, relocation, demolition, and required utilities and public streets work Richfield HRA Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax increment Financing District 4-1 within Richfield Rediscovered 1999.

Classification of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax Increment Financing District The City and HRA, in determining the need to create a tax increment financing district in accordance with M.S., Sections 469.174 to 469.179, as amended, inclusive, finds that Richfield Rediscovered 1999, to be established, is a redevelopment district pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 1 D(a)(1) as defined below: (a) "Redevelopment district" means a type of tax increment financing district consisting of a project, or portions of a project, within which the authority frnds by resol ution that one of the following conditions, reasonably distributed throughout the district, exists: (1) parcels consisting of 70 percent of the area in the district are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or other improvements and more than SO percent of the buildings, not including outbuildings, are structurally substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance; or (2) The property consists of vacant, unused, underused, inappropriately used, or infrequently used railyards, rail storage facilities or excessive or vacated railroad rights-of--way. (b) For purposes of this subdivision, "structurally substandard" shall mean containing defects in structural elements oracombination ofdefrciencies in essential utilities andfacilities, lightand ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors, which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to juste substantial renovation or clearance. (c) A building is not structurally substandard if it is in compliance with the building code applicable to new buildings or could be mod fed to satisfy the building code at a cost of less than 15 percent of the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on the site. The municipality may find that a building. is not disqualified as structurally substandard under the preceding sentence on the basis of reasonably available evidence, such as the sine, type, and age of the building, the average cost ofplumbing, electrical, or structural repairs or other similar reliable .evidence. The municipality may not make such a determination without an interior inspection of the property, but need not have an independent, expert appraisal prepared of the cost of repair and rehabilitation of the building. An interior inspection of the property is not required, if the municipality finds that (1) the municipality or authority is unable to gain access to the property after using its best efforts to obtain permission from the party that owns or controls the property; and (2) the evidence otherwise supports a reasonable conclusion that the building is structurally substandard... (e) For purposes of this subdivision, a parcel is not occupied by buildings, streets, utilities or other improvements unti115 percent of the area of the parcel contains improvements. Richfield HRA Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax Increment Financing District 4-3 (f) For districts consisting of two or more noncontiguous areas, each area must qualify as a redevelopment district under pat~agraph (a) to be included in the district, and the entire are of the district must satisfy paragraph (a). In meeting the statutory criteria described above, the City and HRA rely on the following facts and findings: ^ Richfield Rediscovered 1999 is a redevelopment district consisting of 33 parcels. ^ An inventory of the parcels shows that at least 70 percent of the area of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 consists of parcels in Richfield Rediscovered 1999 that are occupied as defined in the TIF Act. An inspection ofthe buildings located within Richfield Rediscovered 1999 finds that more than 50 percent ofthe buildings are structurally substandard as defined in the TIF:Act. Because Richfield Rediscovered 1999 is a scattered site redevelopment district, each parcel qualifies individually. (See Appendix D) Subsection 4-7.Original Tax Capacity and Tax Rate Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 7 and M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 1, the Original Net Tax Capacity (ONTC) as certified for Richfield Rediscovered 2000 is based on the market values placed on the property by the assessor in 1999 for taxes payable 2000. Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subds. 1 and 2, the County Auditor shall certify in each year (beginning in the payment year 1999) the amount by which the original value has increased or decreased as a result of: 1. change in tax exempt status of property; 2. reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of the district; 3. change due to adjustments, negotiated or court-ordered abatements; 4. change in the use of the property and classification; 5. change in state law governing class rates; or 6. change in connection with previously issued building permits. In any year in which the current Net Tax Capacity value of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 declines below the ONTC, no value will be captured and no tax increment will be payable to the City or HRA. It is expected that the original local tax rate for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 will be the local tax rate for taxes payable 2000. The estimate below is payable 1999. The Original Tax Capacity and the Original Local Tax Rate for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 appear in the table below. Original Tax Capacity Value $4,550 Percent Retained by City 100% Original Local Tax Rate 1.50904 Subsection 4-8.Estimated Cautured Net Tax Capacity Value/Increment Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174 Subd. 4 and M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 1, 2, and 4, the estimated Captured Net Tax Capacity (CTC) of Richfield Rediscovered 1999, within Richfield Redevelopment Project Area, upon completion ofthe project, will annually approximate tax increment revenues as shown in the table Richfield HRA Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax Increment Financing Disvict 4-4 below. The City and HRA request 100 percent of the available increase in tax capacity for repayment of its obligations and current expenditures, beginning in the tax year payable 2001. The project tax capacity listed is an estimate of values when the project is completed.

Property To Be Acquired The City or HRA may acquire any parcel within Richfield Rediscovered 1999 including interior and adjacent street rights of way. The parcels are listed in Subsection 2-5. Any properties identified for acquisition will be .acquired by the City or HRA only in order to accomplish one or more of the following: carry out land acquisition, site improvements, clearance and/or development to accomplish the uses and objectives set forth in this plan. 2. The following are conditions under which properties not designated to be acquired may be acquired: The City or HRA may acquire property by gift, dedication, condemnation or direct purchase from willing sellers in order to achieve the objectives of this tax increment financing plan. Such acquisitions will be undertaken only when there is assurance of funding to finance the acquisition and related costs. Subsection 4-10. Uses of Funds Currently under consideration for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 is a proposal to facilitate the acquisition and demolition of substandard houses and enable home buyers to construct new houses on the lots. The City and HRA have determined that it will be necessary to provide assistance to the project for certain costs. The City has studied the feasibility of the development or redevelopment of property in and around Richfield Rediscovered 1999. To facilitate the establishment and- development or redevelopment of Richfield Rediscovered 1999, this Plan authorizes. the use of tax increment financing to pay for the cost of certain eligible expenses. The estimate of public costs and uses of funds associated with Richfield Rediscovered 1999 over the life of the district is outlined in the following table. Uses of Funds Total Land Acquisition ~ $1,820,000 Site Preparation/Demolition/Grading 280,000 Rehabilitation 1,120,000 Interest 500,000 Administrative Costs (up to 10%) 107,586 TOTAL $4,827,580 Richfield HRA Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax Increment Financing District 4-5 Estimated costs associated with Richfield Rediscovered 1999 are subject to change. The cost of all activities to be considered for tax increment financing will not exceed, without formal modification, the budget above pursuant to the applicable statutory requirements. Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.1763, Subd. 2, no more than 25 percent of the tax increment paid by property within Richfield Rediscovered 1999 will be spent on activities related to development or redevelopment outside ofRichfield Rediscovered 1999 but within the boundaries ofRichfield Redevelopment Project Area, (including administrative costs, which are considered to be spent outside ofRichfield Rediscovered 1999) subject to the limitations as described in this Plan. Subsection 4-11. Sources of RevenueBonded Indebtedness Acquisition and site preparation costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the annual collection of tax increments. The City or HRA reserves the right to use other sources of revenue legally applicable to the Modification to the Redevelopment Plan and the Plan, including, but not limited to, special assessments, general property taxes, state aid for road maintenance and construction, proceeds from the sale of land, other contributions from the .developer and investment income, to pay for the estimated public costs. The City or HRA reserves the right to incur bonded indebtedness or other indebtedness as a result ofthe Plan. As presently proposed, the project may be financed by a bond issue or loans.. Additional indebtedness may be required to finance other authorized activities. The total principal amount of bonded indebtedness or other indebtedness related to the use oftax increment financing will not exceed $4,827,580 without a modification to the Plan pursuant to applicable statutory requirements. This provision does not obligate the City or HRA to incur debt. The. City or HRA may issue bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that such action is in the best interest ofthe City. The City or HRA may also finance the activities to be undertaken pursuant to the Plan through loans from funds of the City or HRA. The estimated sources of funds for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 over the life ofthe district are contained in the table below. Sources of Funds Total Tax Increment $1,075,860 Land Sales 840,000 Other Tax Increment 2,857,927 Local Contribution 53,793 TOTAL $4,827,580 Subsection 4-12. Definition of Tax Increment Revenues Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 25, tax increment revenues derived from a tax increment financing district include all of the following potential revenue sources: 1. taxes paid by the captured net tax capacity, but excluding any excess taxes, as computed under M.S., Section 469.177; 2. the proceeds from the sale or lease of property, tangible or intangible, purchased by the Richfield HRA Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax Increment Financing District 4-6 authority with tax increments; 3. repayments of loans or other advances made by the authority with tax increments; and 4. interest or other investment earnings on or from tax increments. Subsection 4-13. Duration of Tax Increment Financing Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 1, and Section 469.176, Subd. 1, the duration of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 must be indicated within the Plan. Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.176, Subd. I (b), the duration of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 will be 25 years from the date of receipt of the first increment by the City or HRA. The date of receipt by the City of Richfield of the first tax increment will be approximately .2001. Thus, it is estimated that Richfield Rediscovered 1999, including any modifications of the Plan for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after 2026, or when the Plan is satisfied. The City or HRA does reserve the right to decertify Richfield Rediscovered 1999 prior to the legally required date. Subsection 4-14. Estimated Impact on Other Taxing Jurisdictions The estimated impact on other taxing jurisdictions assumes construction which would have occurred without the creation of Richfield Rediscovered 1999. If the construction is a result of tax increment financing, the impact is $0 to other entities. Notwithstanding, the fact that the fiscal impact on the other taxing jurisdictions is $0 due to the fact that the construction would not have occurred without the assistance of the City or HRA, the following estimated impact of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 would be as follows if the "but for"test was not met: IMPACT ON TAX BASE 1998/1999 Estimated Captured Total Net Tax Capacity (CTC) Percent of CTC Tax Capacity Upon Project Completion to Enti Total Hennepin County 925,993,876 43,988 0.0048% LS.D.

The tax rate used for calculations is the 1998/Pay 1999 rate. The total net capacity for the entities listed above are based on Pay 1999 figures. Richfield Rediscovered 1999 will be certified under the actual 1999/200 rates, which Richfield HRA Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax Increment Financing District 4-7 were unavailable at the time thisPlan was prepared. Subsection 4-15. Notification of Prior Planned Improvements The City or HRA shall, after due and diligent search, accompany its request for certification to the County Auditor or its notice of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 enlargement with a listing of all properties within Richfield Rediscovered 1999 or area of enlargement for which building permits have been issued during the eighteen (18) months immediately preceding approval of the Plan by the municipality pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 3. The County Auditor shall increase the original value of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 by the value of improvements for which a building permit was issued. Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subd 4, the City is in the process of reviewing the area to be included in Richfield Rediscovered 1999 to determine if any building permits have been issued during the 18 months immediately preceding approval of the Plan by the City and HRA. Subsection 4-16. Administration of Tax Increment Financing Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Administration of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 will be handled by the Executive Director of the HRA of the City of Richfield. Subsection 4-17. .Municipal Approval and Public Purpose The. reasons and facts supporting the findings for the adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for. Richfield Rediscovered 1999 as required pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 3 are as follows: 1. Finding that Richfield Rediscovered 1999 is a redevelopment district as defined in M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 10(a) (1). Richfield Rediscovered 1999 consists of 33 parcels, with plans to redevelop the area for residential purposes. The Council generally believes that each of the parcels in the District are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or other improvements and the buildings in Richfield Rediscovered 1999, not including outbuildings, are structurally substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance. Because Richfield Rediscovered 1999 is a scattered site redevelopment district, each parcel qualifies individually. These findings are based upon general information about buildings of similar age and construction because building owners did not consent to interior inspections at this time. Prior to a parcel being certified with Hennepin County, an interior inspection will be conducted to confirm that the redevelopment district criteria have been met. (See also Appendix D) 2. Finding that the proposed development, in the opinion of the City Council, would not reasonably be expected to occur solely throughprivate investment within the reasonably foreseeable future and that the increased market value of the site that could reasonably be expected to occur without the use of tax increment frnancing would be less than the increase in the market value estimated to result from the proposed development after subtracting the present value of the projected tax increments for the - maximum duration of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 permitted by the Plan. Due to the high cost of redevelopment on the parcels currently occupied by substandard buildings and the cost of financing the proposed improvements, this project is feasible only through assistance, in • part, from tax increment financing. Richfield HRA Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax Increment Financing District 4-8 A comparative analysis of estimated market values both with and without establishment of Tax Increment Financing Richfield Rediscovered 1999 and the use of tax increments has been performed as described above. If all development which is proposed to be assisted with tax increment were to occur in Richfield Rediscovered 1999, the total increase in market value would be up to $1,960,000 It is the Council's finding that no development with a market value of greater than $1,478,866 would occur without tax increment assistance in this district within 25 years. This finding is based upon evidence from general past experience with the high cost of acquisition and.site improvements in the general area of Richfield Rediscovered 1999 (see Cashflow in Appendix C). 3. Finding that the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 conforms to the general plan for the development or redevelopment of the municipality as a whole. The Plan will be reviewed by the Planning Commission on September 28, 1999 in order to find that the Plan is in conformance with the general development plan of the City. 4. Finding that the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of Richfield Redevelopment Project Area by private enterprise. The project to be assisted by Richfield Rediscovered 1999 will result in the renovation of substandard properties, increased tax base of the State and add a high quality development to the City. Additional findings are set forth in the Authorizing Resolution of the City. Subsection 4-18. Fiscal Disparities Election No commercial/industrial property is expected to be constructed in Richfield. Rediscovered 1999. Subsection 4-19. State Tax Increment Financing Aid Pursuant to M.S., .Section 273.1399, fortax incrementfinancing districts forwhich certification was requested after Apri130,1990, a municipality incurs a reduction in state tax increment financing aid (RISTIFA) applied to the municipality's Local Government Aids (LGA) first and, Homestead and Agricultural Aid (RAGA) second, in an amount equal to a formula based upon the equalized qualifying captured tax capacity (QCTC) of the tax increment financing district. Pursuant to M.S., Section 273.1399, Subd. 6, the City or HRA may choose an option to the LGA-RAGA penalty. Richfield Rediscovered 1999 is exempt from the LGA-RAGA reduction if the City or HRA elects to make a qualifying local contribution at the time of approving the tax increment financing plan. To qualify for the exemption in each year, the City or HRA must make a qualifying local contribution to the project of a certain percentage. The local contribution for a redevelopment district is 5 percent. The maximum local contribution for all districts in the City in any year is limited to two percent of the City's net tax capacity, after which point the City or HRA must make an additional contribution equal to the lesser of (a) 0.25 percent of the City's net tax capacity or (b) 3 percent of tax increment revenues for that year. The amount of the local contribution must be made out. of unrestricted money of the City or HRA, such as the general fund, a property tax levy, or a federal or state grant-in-aid which may be spent for general government purposes. The local contribution may not be made, directly or indirectly, with tax increments Richfield HRA .Tax Increment Financing Plan for Richfield Rediscovered 1999 Tax increment Financing District 4-9 or developer payments. The local contribution must be used to pay project costs and cannot be used for general government purposes. The City elects to make the annual local contribution to the project to exempt itself from the LGA- HACApenalty. The City or HRA will pay for costs of the project described in this Plan, in an amount equal to 5 percent of annual tax increment for Richfield Rediscovered 1999, subject to the limitations described above, in any year in which such amount exceeds 2 percent of the City's net tax capacity. Such contribution may be in form of either lump sum or annual payments (in addition to tax increment payments) towards costs identified in this Plan or other costs related to that development or redevelopment. The contribution may also be made in the form of public. improvements financed by the City or HRA or other unit of government with unrestricted funds. Subsection 4-20. County Road Costs Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. la, the county board may require the City or HRA to pay for all or part of the cost of county road improvements if the proposed development to be assisted by tax increment will, in the judgement of the county, substantially increase the use of county roads requiring construction of road improvements or other road costs and ifthe road improvements are not scheduled within the next five years under a capital improvement plan or other county plan. In the opinion of the City and HRA and consultants, the proposed development outlined in this Plan will have little or no impact upon county roads. If the county elects to use increments to improve county roads, it must notify the City or HRA within thirty days of receipt of this Plan. Subsection 4-21.

Each property has been reviewed to determine property substandardness in accordance with M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 10. All findings are on file for review at the City of Richfield, Community Development Department. APPENDIX ~-~ a HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY • HRA Letter No.Ss Agenda September 20, 1999 Issue Statement: Authorization of the First Amendment to the Contract for Private Redevelopment between the Housing and Redevelopment Authority and Richfield State Agency for the Urban Village Project (AKA Woodlake Centre). Background: Urban Village, now known as Woodlake Centre, is under construction. The Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) 'approved the Contract in November 1998. The HRA and Richfield State Agency (RSA) were able to determine the amount of assistance that could be provided in February 1999. The amount of tax increment assistance approved by the HRA is $9.5 million. This assistance reimburses RSA for the cost of ramp construction and other public improvements and, to the extent possible with the balance, the cost of acquisition, relocation, and demolition of property within the project area. The HRA's financial consultant, Ehlers and Associates, and legal counsel, Kennedy and Graven, have subsequently worked with RSA and their lenders to prepare the specific form and content to the pay-as-you-go "Limited Revenue Tax Increment Note." The attached "First Amendment to the Contract for Private Redevelopment" reflects the • exact financing structure that was not known in February. The Amendment calls for issuance of a Tax Exempt Note in the amount of $5,000,000 to Marquette Capital Bank N.A. A taxable note would be issued to Richfield State Agency in the amount of $4,500,000. The amendment to the Contract eliminates wording in the original Contract for Private Development that would jeopardize the tax-exempt status of the note. Legal counsel will be available at the meeting to answer any questions. Jan Susee, representing RSA, will answer questions and provide a status report on project progress. The attachments provide a current letter from Richfield Bank on development progress, the construction schedule, and a summary of concerns expressed by residents that live south of the development. Recommended Motion: Adopt a resolution approving the First Amendment to the Contract for Private Redevelopment between the Housing and Redevelopment Authority and Richfield State Agency for the Urban Village Project (Woodlake Centre). Basis of Recommendation: 1. The amended Contract for Redevelopment and the form and content of the notes provide the greatest level of assurance to the lender that the HRA is ready to issue its obligations. Actual issuance is tied to the completion of construction (projected for 2000) and the timing of issuance of tax exempt debt acceptable under the City debt cap (also projected for 2000). 2. The issuance of a combination of tax exempt and taxable debt, secured with future tax increment on apay-as-you-go basis, maximizes the best lending rate that could be secured by RSA's from its lenders. 3. The amendment and notes have been finalized. 4. The project is on schedule. RSA has been very responsive to concerns expressed about the development as they have arisen. Alternative Recommendation: 1. Modify the agreements further. 2. Defer action on the agreements. However, RSA prefers an action now, which provides lender assurances of progress on both construction and contracts.

Many customers have seen the beginning stages of our progress and ha~~e asked questions: We are experiencing the rebirth of downtown Richfield and our renewed commitment to friends, customers, and employees of the Richfield community. This communication describes the new Woodlake Centre development. We hope it will provide valuable information and assist you in visiting the bank over the coming months. There are six components of Woodlake Centre, four of which are under construction at the present time. Improved Parking Ramp: Currently under construction, the ramp will be located immediately adjacent and east of the. existing bank building. Covered accommodations for approximately 650 vehicles ~~ill be offered within the 6-story structure. Partial use of the ramp will begin in late 1999, with the entire ramp scheduled for completion in February of 2000. Premier Apartment Living: " • An apartment complex is presently under construction between Grand and Pleasant Avenues. The project, known as "The Oaks on Pleasant," will contain 138 upscale apartments and t~~o- level rental townhomes. All apartment units will feature fireplaces andfull-sized washers and dryers. The Oaks' amenities include underground parking, indoor pool, whirlpool; sauna, exercise facilities, concierge services, billiards room, and many other services that will set a new standard for apartment living in Richfield. The rental agent, Metes & Bounds Management Company, can be reached for showings or rental brochures at (612) 862-7600. The apartment units are scheduled for occupancyMay 1, 2000. McDonald's: The NlcDonaid's restaurant has been a tenant ofthe bank for nearl}' 12 years and is now being relocated to a freestanding building at 67`h and Lyndale. Dave and Eliisa Reinert, ~~ho currently operate the McDonald's restaurant, are great supporters of the City of Richfield and are looking forward to providing quality food from their new easy-access location.

The. facility will be located immediately south of the parking ramp and will be ready for occupancy in August of 2000. The assisted living facility will satisfi~ the communih~'s need for a residence which provides additional care services for individuals desiring. to live in Richfield. Lang Nelson Company will manage the facility. Interested renters should call (612) 920-5338. Restaurant/Commercial In December 1999, work will commence on a 100,000 square foot restaurant, retail and office space addition at the site of the existing McDonald's parkinglot (66`h and Lvndale). The addition will connect the bank building and the Woodlake Medical Clinic. Perhaps the most exciting recent news is attaining agreements with three fine food service organizations: Dunn Bros. Coffee, D. Brian's Deli, and Houlihans restaurant. Each of these fine establishments will enhance the hometown feeling for which Richfield has always been known. We believe you will appreciate the quality atmosphere they bring to Woodlake Centre. Also, to provide the feel of summer year-round,. the commercial building will feature a winter garden and athree-story atrium with skylights. The garden/atrium area will provide space for indoor concerts and events. Inquiries regarding space rental in the commercial and retail areas should be directed to Gary Glockner and Jeff Hart with Collier Towle at (612) 341-4444. Residents of Richfield will enjoy the ambiance of their hometown community from the new urban park integrated within the site. The park will have a sculpture garden honoring the founders of Richfield Bank, William and Garnett Kirchner. We are certain you will appreciate and enjoy the atmosphere ofthis unique setting. As with any progress, there are growing pains. As many of you have already experienced, the construction is causing parking and traffic problems for our valued employees, customers, and tenants. We request your cooperation in following the customer parking directional signage placed around the premises. We will make certain you are provided reasonable parking near the main office and clinic throughout the construction process. We also im~ite you to use any of our other six bank locations. We can only begin to convey the enthusiasm everyone at Richfield Bank, the City of Richfield, and our tenants feel toward Woodlake Centre. We hope you, too, share the vision and the anticipation. We respectfully ask for your patience during the construction period. We want you to know Richfield Bank's employees and tenants will do everything possible to make this transition as smooth as possible. It is a great time of progress for all of us and your continued support is sincerely appreciated. Yours very truly, /~%~~ Martin V. Chorzempa Chief Executive Officer RICHFIELD BANK Steven L.

The lack of direct access to the HUB area is inconvenient. Pleasant Avenue will be closed off permanently to vehicular traffic. The streets are being closed in response to neighborhood concerns about traffic impacts and speeds. There will be pedestrian access from the neighborhood through the new development. There were no streetlights in the neighborhood for several days. The power pole that supplied power to the street lights had to be moved to accommodate construction .and demolition activities. Unfortunately, the contractor did not plan enough in advance to arrange for the new pole to be in place before the old pole had to be removed. The City did not anticipate this disruption and had to rely on the contractor to restore services as quickly as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience. Additional disruptions of this type are not anticipated. There is parking by bank employees and customers on Harriet Avenue during construction. The City contacted the developer, Richfield State Agency (RSA), about the parking issue. RSA made plans for employees to park at K-Mart during construction, but not all employees and customers are following this plan. RSA has notified its employees not to use Harriet Avenue for temporary parking. The parking appears to have gotten better. If the parking gets worse, we encourage you to contact Jan Susee, the developer representative, at 861-8531. If the developer is unresponsive, contact . Bruce Nordquist at City Hall at 861-9777. If excessive parking on the street causes safety problems, the City's Transportation Engineer, Tom Foley, can assess the situation and consider possible solutions. One solution, until the ramp is completed, could be for the neighborhood to develop a petition for "no parking 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m." signs or something similar: This solution would also impact resident parking. Tom can be reached at 861-9791. Note: A portion of the parking ramp may be available for employee parking as early as this Fall. The pile driving was very loud and it occurred early in the morning. The pile driving for the ramp is finished. Additional pile driving for the commercial building will begin around November 1. The City's noise ordinance prohibits loud activities between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. If you hear loud, persistent noise from the construction site during these hours, contact Public Safety immediately to report it (861-9800 or 911). There have been a large number of trucks using Harriet Avenue and driving at high speeds. Two projects caused an unusual number of trucks to use Harriet Avenue. The bank donated several trees from the project area to Little Bob's Park. Trucks moved the trees to the park and then City. crews worked in the park adding mulch and watering the trees over a period of several days. City crews also installed a light in the park in response to a request from the neighborhood. This project took the City crew a couple of days to complete. We don't anticipate any upcoming projects that August 6, 1999 Neighborhood Survey -.Urban Village Construction Activity Comments & Responses would require trucks to use Harriet Avenue. If you notice an unusual number of City trucks using the .' street and/or driving too fast, please contact the Public Works Department immediately (861-9175). The Harriet Avenue sidewalk and 67th Street intersection is also being evaluated to determine the best pedestrian/vehicle strategies. Snow removal will be a problem, especially for the Harriet/Grand Avenue alley. The permanent curbing may be installed before this winter. If not, the Public Works Department will work with the developer and builder to accommodate snow removal. in the area. A road closed sign is located on the boulevard making it difficult to maintain the grass. The sign has been moved to the street. There should still be adequate room for cars to maneuver around the sign. If the signs create problems, residents should contact Derick Anderson at City Hall, 861-9798, and we'll evaluate other strategies for notifying drivers of the road closure. How can RSA homestead the single family homes they bought after they destroyed them? According to the Hennepin County Assessor, a property's value and homestead status is determined on January 2 of each year for the taxes payable the following year. The value and classification of the properties purchased by RSA were established on January 2, 1999 for taxes payable in 2000. Many of the properties were not purchased until after January 2, 1999 and continue to carry the homestead rate of the owner occupant for taxes payable in 2000. RSA should cover any damages to my property caused by construction activities. Residents should contact Jan Susee, the developer representative, at 861-8526 if problems arise. Keep the neighborhood updated on present and future construction plans. The City communicates development information to residents through a variety of sources including Your Ci the Sun Current, and the City web page (www.richfield.ci.mn.us). You can also contact Bruce Nordquist at City Hall, 861-9777, if you have specific questions about the Urban Village construction project.. An estimated construction timetable has been enclosed for your information. August 6, 1999
