for 7333 Emerson Avenue.
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Develo ment for 7333 Emerson Avenue.
II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On July 18; 2016 the Richfield Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA)

Homes (Builder) for the construction of a new single-family home at 7333 Emerson
Avenue. The home will be built through the Richfield Rediscovered program.

081516 Contract for Private Development Amendment(7333 Emerson).docx
III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION
A. BACKGROUND
• In June 2016 HRA staff awarded the development of 7333 Emerson
Avenue to Endres Custom Homes for the construction of a new two-
story home with five bedrooms, four baths, a finished basement and a
two-car detached garage. The completed home would have 3,300
square feet.
• The home was chosen for this lot primarily for its design, which
compliments surrounding homes and provides adequate side-yard
setbacks.
• The end value of the home was originally contracted to be at least
$450,000.
• After approval by the HRA on July 18th, the Builder contacted HRA
staff with the proposed change to the home plan and end-price. The
homeowner wishes to have a back porch instead of an extended
dining area.
B. PoLicY
• The proposed project meets the policy objectives of the Richfield
Rediscovered Program:
o Removes substandard, functionally obsolete housing and
eliminates its blighting influence.
o Provides new, higher valued housing.
o Alleviates shortage of housing choice for families.
• The project meets the Housing Design and Site Development Criteria
as defined in the Richfield Rediscovered Guidelines. Several features
are incorporated to address the design criteria:
o The appearance of the garage and garage door is
minimized with the detached garage.
o The height is minimized through the use of a front gable,
so the house doesn't look like a full two stories.
o The gable roof design is similar to that of neighboring
houses, which will help it blend with the existing
neighborhood.
• The Contract establishes a Minimum Market Value for the property
based on construction estimates provided by the applicant.
• The Builder must construct the home in accordance with the program
guidelines and construction plans to meet or exceed the Minimum
Market Value, or be in default under the Contract.
C. CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES
• Closing on the property is imminent, with construction beginning
immediately after permits are issued.
• Construction needs to begin in order to complete the home before
winter to avoid the need for an escrow to be deposited.
D. F�raNC1aL
. The HRA acquired the 50-foot wide property and structure in 2016 for
$65,000.
. The appraised value of the vacant lot is $60,000.
• Under the terms of the Contract the $60,000 will be due at closing.
. Under the terms of the original Contract, the minimum market value of
` the house will be $450,000.
. The Buyer has requested to amend the minimum market value to
$442,150 to account for changes to the house plans.
. Under the terms of the Contract the Builder must submit a $10,000
cash escrow to be held until construction is completed as provided in
the Contract.
E. LEGAL '

original value.

Revenue Note, Series 2016 in an aggregate principal amount not to
exceed $2,176,055 to Mesaba Capital Development, LLC for the
redevelo ment of the former Cit Gara e site.
II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Richfield Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) approved the
establishment of Tax Increment Financing District No. 2014-1 in February 2014 for
the financing of certain improvements within the former City Garage site
redevelopment project. At that time, there was no developer or specific
development project selected for the site.
In February 2016, the HRA entered into a Contract for Private Development
(Contract) with Mesaba Capital Development, LLC (Developer) for redevelopment
081516 Resolution Approving TIF Note-Mesaba
of the former City Garage site with 88 units of senior housing. As part of the
Contract, the HRA agreed to provide up to $2,400,000 in Tax Increment Financing
(TIF) assistance as warranted to facilitate the project development.
The Developer is preparing to close on the property, begin construction of the
project, and have finalized the project cost and provided TIF qualified costs,
allowing for issuance of the Tax Increment Limited Revenue Note.
III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION
A. BACKGROUND
• TIF District 2014-1 was established in 2014 to facilitate the
redevelopment of the former City Garage property, allowing for
demolition and clearance of the site.
• The Developer has received all land-use approvals necessary for
development of the property per the Contract with the HRA.
• At the time the Contract with Developer was approved, the principal
amount of the TIF Note had not yet been established.
B. POLICY
• In order for private redevelopment with public assistance to occur, a
developer must have an Agreement with the HRA.
• 2008 Comprehensive Plan:
o Maintain a housing supply that meets changing needs
while sustaining the integrity of existing neighborhoods;
o Maintaining a diversity of housing types and prices
ranges.
G CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES
• The Developer is scheduled to close on the property on or before
August 31, 2016.
• Construction must commence prior to November 1, 2016 and will be
complete no later than December 31, 2017.
D. FINANCIAL
• The aggregate principal amount of the TIF Note will not exceed
$2,176,055.
• The Developer must provide qualified costs equal to or exceeding the
amount of TIF requested/awarded.
• The proposed project would not happen but for the provision of
financial assistance through tax increment financing.
• The Developer will pay the HRA $975,000 for the property at closing
and the remainder of the property's appraised value (an additional
$244,000) will be reimbursed with interest, with tax increment
available after the TIF note to the Developer has been paid.
• The tax increment will be distributed "pay as you go", meaning that
payments will only be made subject to sufficient taxes being collected
on the property to meet the payment obligations.
• Estimated project market-value of just under$20,000,000.
E. LEGAL
• The HRA attorney drafted the resolution.

each taxing authority. The proposed tax levy must be certified to the Hennepin
County Auditor by September 15, 2016. Any amendments to the proposed budget,
which would increase the property tax levy, must be made prior to September 15,
2016. No increases in the tax levy are permissible after that date, only reductions.
Final certification of the HRA tax levy is part of the City's budget process.
The tax levy as proposed is the maximum levy established by law and represents a
4.51% increase from the previous year's levy.
III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION
A. BACKGROUND
• N/A.
B. POLICY
• Minnesota Statutes require adoption of a preliminary levy from each
taxing authority.
• The budget and accompanying proposed levy for 2017 are ready for
consideration.
• Even though a public hearing for the HRA tax levy is not requir.ed by
State Statute, this does not preclude the HRA from opening this item
up for public discussion if the HRA desires to do so.
C. CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES
• As required by State Statutes, each taxing authority must certify its
proposed tax levy for the payable year 2017 to the County Auditor on
or before September 15, 2016.
D. FINANCIAL
• The Proposed 2017 HRA levy represents a 4.51% increase from the
previous year's levy. This equates to a $22,500 increase.
• The levy as proposed is for the maximum levy established by law of
the .0185% of the City's total taxable market value net of the market
value exclusion.
E. LEGAL
• N/A.
IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION�S�
• The HRA could adopt a preliminary levy less than the one proposed herein.
However, that would not provide for programs that are recommended in the
2017 Proposed/2016 Revised budget.
V. ATTACHMENTS
• Resolution Approving Proposed 2017 Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Budget and Certifying the 2017 Tax Levy
