Work Session Minutes -2- March 8, 2022
Kirsten Spreck, Director of Housing for Beacon Interfaith Housing Collaborative. Kirsten Spreck gave
a presentation that described the housing that is proposed and the need for that type of housing.
Council Member Trautmann thanked Kirsten Spreck for the presentation and asked about
which communities Beacon has been working with in the City and also the organizations that they
have partnered with. Kirsten Spreck stated that they have been in contact with MICC and shared that
Beacon is more focused on those young adults with neurodiversity that do not have the financial or
family support. A Congregational Organizer for Beacon, Ricky Kamil, stated that Woodlake Lutheran
Church is a part of the collaborative and that other area churches that want to see more deeply
affordable housing for the neurodivergent community in Richfield.
Council Member Whalen stated that he is generally supportive of the project and asked about
the difference between efficiency and studio apartments and the need for this type of housing for this
community. Kirsten Spreck stated that efficiency and studio are one in the same and explained that
this type of housing has helped youth and young adults experiencing homelessness or financial
hardship to get stabilized and find employment or further their educations. An architect from MSR,
Paul Mellblom, explained that the trauma that people face with homelessness and other traumas can
affect how people want to live and they might feel more comfortable having a one room apartment
than a multi-room apartment and shared that the efficiency apartments would be around 450 square
feet.
Council Member Supple shared her experience touring the 66 West site and she questioned
the density for this site. Kirsten Spreck explained the cost-benefit analysis for this proposal. Council
Member Supple stated her support if this project is similar to the 66 West project as there is a great
need for it in the community.
HRA Commissioner Ohnesorge thanked Beacon for bringing this project proposal and asked
about accessible units and zero threshold showers. Kirsten Spreck stated that there would likely be
accessible units on every floor. Paul Mellblom shared that per building code they are required to have
an elevator be accessible to all residents and all stairwells and doorways would meet ADA compliancy
and 2% of the units would have to have hearing and/or visual aids. Kirsten Spreck shared that Beacon
is dedicated to providing housing to persons with disabilities.
Council Member Hayford Oleary shared his support in this site being high density residential
as smaller unit density projects have not suited this site well and also shared his thoughts regarding
fair parking reduction practices for projects that are along major transit lines. Council Member Hayford
Oleary expressed optimism for the project to move forward for the community.
Council Member Trautmann appreciated the comments made by Council Member Hayford
Oleary and questioned the services provided for those that are transitioning out of homelessness. He
shared Richfield community organizations that would appreciate the opportunity to be a community
presence. Kirsten Spreck stated that each building is intended to meet the needs of the residents and
depending on the residents the services provided can differ.
Planning Commissioner Kennealy agreed with the comments made by the City Council
Members and questioned the number of parking stalls compared to the 66 West site and the zoning
this area to high density without affecting the rest of the neighborhood. Director Poehlman stated that
the comprehensive plan would need to be reassessed as the project would move forward.
Planning Commissioner Rudolph expressed excitement for the project and shared a curiosity
of the hurdles that the project would need to overcome as it moves forward with respect to the lot size.
Kirsten Spreck stated that the project is in line with zoning for setbacks and height which would allow
for outdoor amenities for the residents.
Planning Commissioner Chair Quam asked why there is an efficiency limitation in medium
density housing to which Director Poehlman explained the history of the code and how it has affected
Joint City Council, Planning Commission, and HRA
Work Session Minutes -3- March 8, 2022
Richfield’s growth. Planning Commissioner Chair Quam also asked about the availability of units for
people with disabilities and what the proposed look of the building would be like. Kirsten Spreck stated
that they have not finalized the number of units that would be available as it is dependent upon
research of the need in the area and also stated that the look of the building is unknown at this time
since this is a preliminary proposal however the Richfield community and staff would be involved in
the exterior look of the building.
Planning Commissioner Holmvig-Johnson shared concern about the long term conditions of
the building. Kirsten Spreck stated the accountability to provide quality housing in the long run and
Beacon reinvests in their properties to keep them in good condition for the residents.
Council Member Whalen referred back to Commissioner Kennealy’s question of the number of
parking stalls compared to the 66 West site. Kirsten Spreck stated that in the last few years they have
created parking below grade to offer more of a safe environment and that the proposed 25 stalls is
meant to be more proactive and can be discussed.
Planning Commissioner Hanson suggested that since the parking stalls at the other properties
are not being used to their full advantage that the extra parking space could be used for a recreational
space for the residents. Kirsten Spreck thanked Commissioner Hanson for that suggestion and stated
that they will bring that idea back to the design team.
Mayor Regan Gonzalez expressed excitement and support for this project and appreciated the
comments and questions from Council and Commissioners. She also thanked the presenters for the
proposal.
Council Member Supple asked if there is an age restriction on the service. Kirsten Spreck
explained that young adults between the age of 18 and 24 would be prioritized and stated that this is
permanent supportive housing which does not put a time limit on a person’s residency.
Director Poehlman stated that the commercial property next door does have interest in the
property however she will relay that the policymakers are generally supportive of this possibility.
Assistant Director Urban summarized the discussion and stated the next steps:
General consensus of approval for the high density
25 parking stalls might be too much for this project
Beacon is a thoughtful provider and trying to meet the needs of the people they are serving
Financially, this project would need the help of the HRA and additional funding which
would be discussed as the project moves forward.

ITEM #1
INTRODUCTORY PRESENTATION OF REDEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL FOR THE
HUB SHOPPING CENTER BY REPRESENTATIVES OF BRIXMOR PROPERTY
GROUP
Joint City Council, Planning Commission, and HRA
Work Session Minutes -2- April 12, 2022
City Manager Rodriguez stated the agenda item is informational and to gather initial feedback
on the proposed plans and then introduced Community Development Director Poehlman. Director
Poehlman then turned the meeting over to Rich Dippolito from Brixmor Property Group.
Rich Dippolito detailed the HUB area currently and the proposed plan that includes residential
and the current tenants that have longer leases. The plan focuses on creating greenspaces and
allowing for walk-up restaurants. Dippolito explained that they would be asking for Tax Increment
Financing to help with the funding for the development.
Mayor Regan Gonzalez stated that the leaders from Partnership Academy were present and
contact information should be shared to improve both developments.
Council Member Hayford Oleary expressed his excitement for the development plans however
the proposed plans brought up some concerns such as the potential for a large vacancy in the main
retailer in the future, the location of the residential component in reference to public transportation
along Nicollet, many drive-thru sites along 66th Street, and that there is only one north-south
connection instead of two that would follow the Comp Plan. He urged the developers to look further
into the future and bring more pedestrian friendly ideas.
Chair Rudolph was impressed with the proposed plans and looks forward to the
redevelopment of the historic area.
Council Member Whalen echoed Council Member Hayford Oleary’s comments and expressed
additional concerns for the underutilization of the space with several single story buildings instead of
residential above retail spaces and the large size of parking available. He was excited about outdoor
spaces and residential space but stated that there is more opportunity to build up instead of out.
Dippolito explained that they are retail developer and do not know much about residential
developments.
Council Member Supple thanked them for bringing the proposed plans and expressed curiosity
about the smaller, locally owned retail tenants. Dippolito stated that the proposed plan highlighted
retailers that had long-term leases and if those small business owners would like to extend their
leases they would be happy to talk with them.
Commissioner Stursa expressed gratitude for the proposed plans but asked the developers to
focus more on pedestrian/people orientation versus vehicle. She also asked about the affordability of
the residential housing. Dippolito stated that they are working with their residential partners and the
goal is to have an affordability aspect.
Commissioner Surma expressed concern for accessibility for public transit users and brought
up the idea of moving the Walgreens closer to the public transit stop along Nicollet. Commissioner
Surma also asked if the plans would alter the curb lines. Dippolito stated that there is no plan to
change the curb lines and appreciated the comment about the pharmacy having access to those bus
stops.
Commissioner Hanson was excited for grocery store option and asked about the affordability
of lease rates for smaller, locally-owned retail shops. He stated that he would support the use of
higher density of the site to provide more residential housing. He also commented that this would be a
great opportunity for their company to expand their expertise and push the boundaries of what they
are capable of.
Dippolito asked what density would be appropriate for this site. Director Poehlman stated that
the Comp Plan has a this site for a high density of about 100 to 150 units per acre and the general
allowance for height would be around six stories but there is flexibility since this is a planned unit

development. Chair Rudolph brought up that a residential building the size of City Bella would be a
good fit for this site. Council Member Hayford Oleary agreed with Chair Rudolph and added that there
has been push to build apartment buildings at the Hub from residents.
Council Member Trautmann expressed gratitude for the discussion of the proposed plans and
expressed concern for the amount of drive-thru buildings and limited green spaces for the community.
He encouraged Bixmor to think about the future that would keep people living, working, and shopping
in Richfield.
Commissioner Kennealy was fortunate to have this discussion and stated that they should
focus on transportation by car being the least attractive option. Commissioner Kennealy also
expressed excitement and support for the increased density and height.
Mayor Regan Gonzalez stated that the proposed plans are good however we are interested to
be creative to make this more functional for the community and expressed that, as a part of
Downtown Richfield, this site is very important for the community and the revitalization of this would
be multi-generational. She mentioned partnering with Holy Angels and Partnership Academy to
benefit our entire community. She also asked about when they could share the details of who the
grocery retailer would be. Dippolito stated that they would not be able to disclose that information until
they are allowed but once they are able to they will let the City know.
Council Member Whalen asked about the possibility of doing a multi-level grocery and also
asked Brixmor to keep in mind the redevelopment and the residents of and along 65th Street that
might not want to look at the back of buildings. He also stated that an unattractive parking structure
would be better than so much of the area being surface parking and would allow for more density
much like the areas of 50th and France.
Council Member Hayford Oleary appreciated how ambitious the proposed plans are and
expressed hope that they would go further with the opportunities. He also expressed delight about the
quick timeframe they stated to redevelop the site but would like to see the project take longer and get
done right than be rushed.
Director Poehlman stated the next steps would be for Brixmor to digest the feedback from
tonight’s work session and to work with the City to create a sketch plan. She also stated that staff
would keep Council and Commissioners informed as the process moves forward.
Mayor Regan Gonzalez thanked everyone for the discussion.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
Consideration of the adoption of a resolution authorizing the purchase of real property located at 1516
- 66th Street East.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The property located at 1516 - 66th Street East has been the home to A World of Fish for the past 48 years.
As the property and business owners look to close the business and head into retirement, they have
approached the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) to negotiate the sale of their property for future
redevelopment. On April 18, the HRA authorized staff to negotiate a Purchase Agreement with the owner up
to 10 percent of the assessed value.
Staff has made an offer (contingent on HRA approval) to purchase the property for $553,300, which is 10
percent greater than its current assessed market value of $503,000. The property owner has agreed to
the price but asks that the HRA also reimburse for the 2nd half of 2022 property taxes ($7,880)
which were due May 15th. Including the tax amount, the total purchase price would be
$561,180. Staff views this as reasonable given that the assessed values, as determined by
Hennepin County, reflect the prior year's value and a private appraisal values the property at
$600,000.
The property will be held for future commercial redevelopment. When there is additional staff
capacity, marketing of the property for redevelopment could become more proactive.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion: Adopt a resolution authorizing the purchase of real property located at 1516 - 66th Street
East for $561,180.
BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION:
A.HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The owners have determined that after 48 years of successful business in Richfield, it is time to
retire and close A World of Fish.
The HRA has a history of purchasing properties along the City's commercial corridors that would
be a challenge to reuse and/or that offer a strategic advantage in redevelopment of a larger area.
On April 18, 2022, the HRA authorized staff to negotiate a Purchase Agreement with the owner up
to 10 percent of the assessed value, which is $503,000.
On April 25, 2022, the Planning Commission found the proposed acquisition to be consistent with
the Comprehensive Plan.
B.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, etc):
The 2040 Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Community Commercial and
the Planning Commission determined that the acquisition is consistent with the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
Purchasing this property offers the HRA the opportunity to direct redevelopment along 66th Street
in a manner that is consistent with investments in the public right-of-way in this area.
As currently situated, the parking at this building requires cars to travel over the public right-of-
way to access stalls and creates a less-than-ideal situation for pedestrians and bicyclists
The Purchase Agreement is contingent upon the HRA finding the results of a building and
property inspection acceptable.
C.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, property closing would take place on or before June
20, 2022.
D.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The HRA budget anticipates occasional acquisitions such as this, and there is available funding.
A property inspection is currently underway, and preliminary results indicate that the property will
qualify for purchase with pooled Tax Increment. Given that finding, the property will be acquired
with funds from the HRA's Housing and Redevelopment Fund.
E.LEGAL CONSIDERATION:
HRA legal counsel drafted the attached Purchase Agreement.
ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S):
Deny approval of the resolution and do not acquire this property.
Approve the resolution with modifications that address any concerns by HRA Commissioners.
PRINCIPAL PARTIES EXPECTED AT MEETING:

REPORT PREPARED BY: Julie Urban, Asst Community Development Director

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR REVIEW: Melissa Poehlman, Executive Director
5/12/2022
ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
Consider resolutions approving a modification to the Tax Increment Redevelopment Plans for the
Lyndale Gateway/Interchange West, Urban Village and City Bella Tax Increment Financing districts,
allowing an additional 10 percent of increment to be pooled for affordable housing purposes.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) have approved several Tax
Increment Financing (TIF) districts over the years to facilitate housing and redevelopment activities
in the City. State law allows the City and its HRA to pool up to 15 percent of the funds collected
within a TIF district for eligible activities outside of the district boundaries. The HRA's Housing and
Redevelopment Fund (HRF) utilizes these pooled funds for a variety of activities to alleviate blighted
and substandard conditions.
Several TIF districts contribute pooled funds to the HRF; however, there are three districts that are
the primary contributors: Lyndale Gateway/Interchange West, Urban Village and City Bella. A review
of the City's TIF districts indicates that there is an opportunity to maximize the amount of tax
increment that can be pooled and used outside of the district boundaries on redevelopment activities
and also affordable housing. State law allows HRAs to pool an additional 10 percent of increment to
be used toward affordable housing activities, and the HRA's financial consultants are recommending
that the Tax Increment Redevelopment Plan (Plan) be modified to enable the HRA to pool this
additional 10 percent in three TIF districts.
Under the TIF law, the use of the 10 percent is limited to tax-credit eligible projects; however, the State
Legislature passed a special law during the 2021 special session authorizing the City and its HRA to transfer
tax increment accumulated for housing purposes to the Affordable Housing Trust Fund (Trust Fund), which is
administered by the HRA. Under the special legislation, the funds collected under the 10 percent allowance
can be used for the development, rehabilitation and financing of affordable housing, both rental and
homeownership. Transfers are allowed until December 31, 2026. By approving the Plan modification for each
of the three districts and utilizing this special legislation, the HRA would be able to transfer the pooled TIF
collected under the 10 percent modification to the City's Trust Fund.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion: Adopt resolutions approving a modification to the Tax Increment Redevelopment Plans for
the Lyndale Gateway/Interchange West, Urban Village and City Bella Tax Increment Financing districts
to allow pooling of an additional 10 percent to the City's Affordable Housing Trust Fund.
BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION:
A.HISTORICAL CONTEXT
In 2021, the State Legislature approved special legislation that allows Richfield to transfer
funds collected for housing purposes to its Trust Fund until December 31, 2026, for the
development, rehabilitation or financing of affordable housing.
B.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, etc):
Minnesota Statutes Section 469.1763, subd. 2(d) allows an increase in pooling by 10 percent for
affordable housing outside any type of TIF district.
The State Legislature passed special legislation, chapter 14, Article 9, Section 5, that enables the
City and its HRA to transfer pooled tax increment to its Trust Fund.
The City's Trust Fund provides funding for housing that serves very low, low, and moderate
income households.
C.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
The three districts are nearing the end of their terms, and approval of the modification will
allow the HRA to maximize the use of generated increment before the districts expire.
The legislation allows for transfers until December 31, 2026.
D.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Given approval of the modification, a projected $1.5 million may be collected annually from the
three districts under the 10 percent rule, through 2025. The exact amount will be confirmed with
each annual audit.
A fund balance is projected for the end of each of the three districts. Approval of the modification
will allow the HRA to maximum use of the generated funds.
E.LEGAL CONSIDERATION:
Funds transferred under the legislation can be spent on eligible activities, which include grants,
loans, and loan guarantees for the development, rehabilitation, or financing of housing or to match
other funds from federal, state, or private sources for housing projects. The funds can be used for
renter as well as owner-occupied housing.
The special legislation does not allow the transferred pooled TIF to be used toward rent assistance
or down payment assistance, as would be allowed with other funds in a housing trust fund.
ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S):
Decide not to approve the Modifications to the Plan.

Section 1. Recitals.
1.01. The City of Richfield, Minnesota (the “City”) and the Authority previously
established, and the Authority administers, the Urban Village Tax Increment Financing District
(the “TIF District”) within the Richfield Redevelopment Project in the City. The City and the

1.02. Pursuant to Section 469.1763, subdivision 2(d) of the TIF Act, the Authority may
elect to increase by up to ten percent (10%) the permitted amounts of expenditures for activities
located outside of the geographic area of the TIF District if such expenditures (a) are used
exclusively to assist housing that meets the requirement for a qualified low-income building, as
that term is used in Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);
(b) do not exceed the qualified basis of the housing, as defined under Section 42(c) of the Code,
less the amount of any credit allowed under Section 42 of the Code; and (c) are used to

Article 9, Section 5 (the “Special Law”), in particular subdivision 1(b), the City and the Authority

Affordable Housing Trust Fund for housing development purposes authorized by the Special
Law.
1.05. Pursuant to Section 469.175, subdivision 4(b) of the TIF Act, a tax increment
financing plan may be modified without public hearing or the findings required to be made for
the original tax increment financing plan if the modification does not include (i) any reduction or

increase in the amount of bonded indebtedness to be incurred; (iii) a determination to capitalize
interest on debt if that determination was not a part of the original plan; (iv) an increase in the

2
estimated cost of the project, including administrative expenses, to be paid or financed with tax
increment from the district; or (vi) the designation of additional property to be acquired by the

the TIF Plan (the “Amendment”). The proposed Amendment to the Budget in the TIF Plan does

prepared the following information to expedite the Modification of Urban
Village TIF District (the "District"), a redevelopment tax increment financing
district, located in Richfield Redevelopment Project Area.
STATUTORY AUTHORITY
Within the City, there exist areas where public involvement is necessary to
cause development or redevelopment to occur. To this end, the HRA and City
have certain statutory powers pursuant to Minnesota Statutes ("M.S."),
Sections 469.001 - 469.047, inclusive, as amended, and M.S., Sections 469.174

(the "Modification") for the District. Other relevant information is contained in
the Richfield Redevelopment Project Area.
STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES
The Urban Village TIF District is a mixed-use redevelopment project located
on the southeast corner of Lyndale and 66th Street. Development includes
Houlihan’s, the Oaks on Pleasant apartments, and BMO Bank. Tax increment
revenue is pledged to assist with property acquisition and excess site
development expenses.
The HRA is modifying the TIF Plan to allow the HRA to pool an additional 10%
of tax increment to the Housing Trust Fund under Minnesota Statutes
469.1763, Subdivision 2, Paragraph (b) and (d) and Minnesota Session Laws –
2021, 1st Special Session, Chapter 14 – HF No. 9, Article 9, Section 1 through

Modification to Urban Village TIF District 3
Sources of Revenue/Bonded Indebtedness Section of the Tax Increment
Financing Plan for Urban Village TIF District shall be amended as follows:
ESTIMATED SOURCES OF REVENUE
SOURCES November 23, 1998 November 13, 2007 May 16, 2022
Tax Increment 25,000,000$ 29,935,611$ 29,935,611$

TOTAL 26,250,000$ 31,077,580$ 31,077,580$
The costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the
annual collection of tax increments. The HRA reserves the right to incur
bonds or other indebtedness as a result of the TIF Plan. Any refunding
amounts will be deemed a budgeted cost without a formal TIF Plan
Modification. This provision does not obligate the HRA to incur debt. The
HRA will issue bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that
such action is in the best interest of the HRA.
The City or HRA may issue bonds (as defined in the TIF Act) secured in whole
or in part with tax increments from the District in a maximum principal
amount of $31,077,580. Such bonds may be in the form of pay-as-you-go
notes, revenue bonds or notes, general obligation bonds, or interfund loans.
This estimate of total bonded indebtedness is a cumulative statement of
authority under this TIF Plan as of the date of approval.

Modification to Urban Village TIF District
Appendix B: Legislation
Section 1. Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 469.176, is amended by adding
a subdivision to read:
Subd. 4n. Temporary use of increment authorized.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section or any other law
to the contrary, except the requirements to pay bonds to which
increments are pledged, the authority may elect, by resolution, to
transfer unobligated increment for one or more of the following
purposes:
(1) to provide improvements, loans, interest rate subsidies, or
assistance in any form to private development consisting of the
construction or substantial rehabilitation of buildings and ancillary
facilities, if doing so will create or retain jobs in the state,
including construction jobs, and the construction commences
before December 31, 2025, and would not have commenced
before that date without the assistance; or
(2) to make an equity or similar investment in a corporation,
partnership, or limited liability company that the authority
determines is necessary to make construction of a development
that meets the requirement of clause (1) financially feasible.
(b) For each calendar year for which transfers are permitted under this
subdivision, the maximum transfer equals the excess of the district's
unobligated increment which includes any increment not required for
payments of obligations due during six months following the transfer on
outstanding bonds, binding contracts, and other outstanding financial
obligations of the district to which the district's increment is pledged.
(c) The authority may transfer increments permitted under this
subdivision after creating a written spending plan that authorizes the
authority to take the action described in paragraph (a) and details the
use of transferred increment. Additionally, the municipality must
approve the authority's spending plan after holding a public hearing.
The municipality must publish notice of the hearing in a newspaper of
general circulation in the municipality and on the municipality's public
website at least ten days, but not more than 30 days, prior to the date
of the hearing.
(d) Increment that is improperly retained, received, spent, or transferred
is not eligible for transfer under this subdivision.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to Urban Village TIF District
(e) An authority making a transfer under this subdivision must provide
to the Office of the State Auditor a copy of the spending plan approved
and signed by the municipality.
(f) The authority to transfer increments under this subdivision expires
on December 31, 2022. All transferred increments must be spent by
December 31, 2025. Increment not spent by December 31, 2025, must
be returned to the district. If the district has already been decertified,
the increment shall be treated as excess increment and distributed as
provided in subdivision 2, paragraph (c), clause (4).
EFFECTIVE DATE.
This section is effective the day following final enactment and applies to
increments from any district that are unobligated as of the date of final
enactment regardless of when the request for certification was made.
Sec. 2. Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 469.1763, subdivision 2, is
amended to read:
Subd. 2. Expenditures outside district.
(a) For each tax increment financing district, an amount equal to at
least 75 percent of the total revenue derived from tax increments paid
by properties in the district must be expended on activities in the
district or to pay bonds, to the extent that the proceeds of the bonds
were used to finance activities in the district or to pay, or secure
payment of, debt service on credit enhanced bonds. For districts, other
than redevelopment districts for which the request for certification was
made after June 30, 1995, the in-district percentage for purposes of the
preceding sentence is 80 percent. Not more than 25 percent of the total
revenue derived from tax increments paid by properties in the district
may be expended, through a development fund or otherwise, on
activities outside of the district but within the defined geographic area
of the project except to pay, or secure payment of, debt service on
credit enhanced bonds. For districts, other than redevelopment districts
for which the request for certification was made after June 30, 1995, the
pooling percentage for purposes of the preceding sentence is 20
percent. The revenues derived from tax increments paid by properties
in the district that are expended on costs under section 469.176,
subdivision 4h, paragraph (b), may be deducted first before calculating
the percentages that must be expended within and without the district.
(b) In the case of a housing district, a housing project, as defined in
section 469.174, subdivision 11, is an activity in the district.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to Urban Village TIF District
(c) All administrative expenses are for activities outside of the district,
except that if the only expenses for activities outside of the district
under this subdivision are for the purposes described in paragraph (d),
administrative expenses will be considered as expenditures for activities
in the district.
(d) The authority may elect, in the Previous tax Next Previous increment
Next financing plan for the district, to increase by up to ten percentage
points the permitted amount of expenditures for activities located
outside the geographic area of the district under paragraph (a). As
permitted by section 469.176, subdivision 4k, the expenditures,
including the permitted expenditures under paragraph (a), need not be
made within the geographic area of the project. Expenditures that meet
the requirements of this paragraph are legally permitted expenditures
of the district, notwithstanding section 469.176, subdivisions 4b, 4c, and
4j. To qualify for the increase under this paragraph, the expenditures
must:
(1) be used exclusively to assist housing that meets the
requirement for a qualified low-income building, as that term is
used in section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code; and
(2) not exceed the qualified basis of the housing, as defined under
section 42(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, less the amount of
any credit allowed under section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code;
and
(3) be used to:
(i) acquire and prepare the site of the housing;
(ii) acquire, construct, or rehabilitate the housing; or
(iii) make public improvements directly related to the
housing; or
(4) be used to develop housing:
(i) if the market value of the housing does not exceed the
lesser of:
(A) 150 percent of the average market value of single-
family homes in that municipality; or
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to Urban Village TIF District
(B) $200,000 for municipalities located in the
metropolitan area, as defined in section 473.121, or
$125,000 for all other municipalities; and
(ii) if the expenditures are used to pay the cost of site
acquisition, relocation, demolition of existing structures, site
preparation, and pollution abatement on one or more
parcels, if the parcel contains a residence containing one to
four family dwelling units that has been vacant for six or
more months and is in foreclosure as defined in section
325N.10, subdivision 7, but without regard to whether the

FOREWORD
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
(the "HRA"), the City of Richfield (the "City"), staff and consultants have
prepared the following information to expedite the Modification of City Bella
TIF District (the "District"), a redevelopment tax increment financing district,
located in Richfield Redevelopment Project Area.
STATUTORY AUTHORITY
Within the City, there exist areas where public involvement is necessary to
cause development or redevelopment to occur. To this end, the HRA and City
have certain statutory powers pursuant to Minnesota Statutes ("M.S."),
Sections 469.001 - 469.047, inclusive, as amended, and M.S., Sections 469.174
to 469.1794, 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 Modification to the Tax Increment Financing Plan
(the "Modification") for the District. Other relevant information is contained in
the Richfield Redevelopment Project Area.
STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES
The City Bella project is a redevelopment district consisting of a housing
project with a retail component located on Lyndale Avenue and 66th Street.
Tax increment revenue is pledged to the project to assist with property
acquisition and site improvement expenses.
The HRA is modifying the TIF Plan to allow the HRA to pool an additional 10%
of tax increment to the Housing Trust Fund under Minnesota Statutes
469.1763, Subdivision 2, Paragraph (b) and (d) and Minnesota Session Laws –
2021, 1st Special Session, Chapter 14 – HF No. 9, Article 9, Section 1 through
Section 5.
The activities contemplated in the Redevelopment Program and the TIF Plan
do not preclude the undertaking of other qualified development or
redevelopment activities. These activities are anticipated to occur over the
life of Richfield Redevelopment Project Area and the District.

Modification to the City Bella TIF District 2
ESTIMATED PUBLIC COSTS

The budget is being modified to allow the HRA to pool an additional 10% of
tax increment to the Housing Trust Fund under Minnesota Statutes 469.1763,
Subdivision 2, Paragraph (b) and (d) and Minnesota Session Laws – 2021, 1st
Special Session, Chapter 14 – HF No. 9, Article 9, Section 1 through Section 5.

ESTIMATED SOURCES OF REVENUE
SOURCES June 11, 2002 November 13, 2007 May 16, 2022
Tax Increment 26,500,000$ 26,360,716$ 26,360,716$

Transfers In - 37,309 -
TOTAL 26,500,000$ 26,500,000$ 26,500,000$
The costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the
annual collection of tax increments. The HRA reserves the right to incur
bonds or other indebtedness as a result of the TIF Plan. Any refunding
amounts will be deemed a budgeted cost without a formal TIF Plan
Modification. This provision does not obligate the HRA to incur debt. The
HRA will issue bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that
such action is in the best interest of the HRA.
The City or HRA may issue bonds (as defined in the TIF Act) secured in whole
or in part with tax increments from the District in a maximum principal
amount of $26,500,000. Such bonds may be in the form of pay-as-you-go
notes, revenue bonds or notes, general obligation bonds, or interfund loans.
This estimate of total bonded indebtedness is a cumulative statement of
authority under this TIF Plan as of the date of approval.

Appendix B: Legislation
Section 1. Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 469.176, is amended by adding
a subdivision to read:
Subd. 4n. Temporary use of increment authorized.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section or any other law
to the contrary, except the requirements to pay bonds to which
increments are pledged, the authority may elect, by resolution, to
transfer unobligated increment for one or more of the following
purposes:
(1) to provide improvements, loans, interest rate subsidies, or
assistance in any form to private development consisting of the
construction or substantial rehabilitation of buildings and ancillary
facilities, if doing so will create or retain jobs in the state,
including construction jobs, and the construction commences
before December 31, 2025, and would not have commenced
before that date without the assistance; or
(2) to make an equity or similar investment in a corporation,
partnership, or limited liability company that the authority
determines is necessary to make construction of a development
that meets the requirement of clause (1) financially feasible.
(b) For each calendar year for which transfers are permitted under this
subdivision, the maximum transfer equals the excess of the district's
unobligated increment which includes any increment not required for
payments of obligations due during six months following the transfer on
outstanding bonds, binding contracts, and other outstanding financial
obligations of the district to which the district's increment is pledged.
(c) The authority may transfer increments permitted under this
subdivision after creating a written spending plan that authorizes the
authority to take the action described in paragraph (a) and details the
use of transferred increment. Additionally, the municipality must
approve the authority's spending plan after holding a public hearing.
The municipality must publish notice of the hearing in a newspaper of
general circulation in the municipality and on the municipality's public
website at least ten days, but not more than 30 days, prior to the date
of the hearing.
(d) Increment that is improperly retained, received, spent, or transferred
is not eligible for transfer under this subdivision.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to the City Bella TIF District
(e) An authority making a transfer under this subdivision must provide
to the Office of the State Auditor a copy of the spending plan approved
and signed by the municipality.
(f) The authority to transfer increments under this subdivision expires
on December 31, 2022. All transferred increments must be spent by
December 31, 2025. Increment not spent by December 31, 2025, must
be returned to the district. If the district has already been decertified,
the increment shall be treated as excess increment and distributed as
provided in subdivision 2, paragraph (c), clause (4).
EFFECTIVE DATE.
This section is effective the day following final enactment and applies to
increments from any district that are unobligated as of the date of final
enactment regardless of when the request for certification was made.
Sec. 2. Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 469.1763, subdivision 2, is
amended to read:
Subd. 2. Expenditures outside district.
(a) For each tax increment financing district, an amount equal to at
least 75 percent of the total revenue derived from tax increments paid
by properties in the district must be expended on activities in the
district or to pay bonds, to the extent that the proceeds of the bonds
were used to finance activities in the district or to pay, or secure
payment of, debt service on credit enhanced bonds. For districts, other
than redevelopment districts for which the request for certification was
made after June 30, 1995, the in-district percentage for purposes of the
preceding sentence is 80 percent. Not more than 25 percent of the total
revenue derived from tax increments paid by properties in the district
may be expended, through a development fund or otherwise, on
activities outside of the district but within the defined geographic area
of the project except to pay, or secure payment of, debt service on
credit enhanced bonds. For districts, other than redevelopment districts
for which the request for certification was made after June 30, 1995, the
pooling percentage for purposes of the preceding sentence is 20
percent. The revenues derived from tax increments paid by properties
in the district that are expended on costs under section 469.176,
subdivision 4h, paragraph (b), may be deducted first before calculating
the percentages that must be expended within and without the district.
(b) In the case of a housing district, a housing project, as defined in
section 469.174, subdivision 11, is an activity in the district.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to the City Bella TIF District
(c) All administrative expenses are for activities outside of the district,
except that if the only expenses for activities outside of the district
under this subdivision are for the purposes described in paragraph (d),
administrative expenses will be considered as expenditures for activities
in the district.
(d) The authority may elect, in the Previous tax Next Previous increment
Next financing plan for the district, to increase by up to ten percentage
points the permitted amount of expenditures for activities located
outside the geographic area of the district under paragraph (a). As
permitted by section 469.176, subdivision 4k, the expenditures,
including the permitted expenditures under paragraph (a), need not be
made within the geographic area of the project. Expenditures that meet
the requirements of this paragraph are legally permitted expenditures
of the district, notwithstanding section 469.176, subdivisions 4b, 4c, and
4j. To qualify for the increase under this paragraph, the expenditures
must:
(1) be used exclusively to assist housing that meets the
requirement for a qualified low-income building, as that term is
used in section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code; and
(2) not exceed the qualified basis of the housing, as defined under
section 42(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, less the amount of
any credit allowed under section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code;
and
(3) be used to:
(i) acquire and prepare the site of the housing;
(ii) acquire, construct, or rehabilitate the housing; or
(iii) make public improvements directly related to the
housing; or
(4) be used to develop housing:
(i) if the market value of the housing does not exceed the
lesser of:
(A) 150 percent of the average market value of single-
family homes in that municipality; or
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to the City Bella TIF District
(B) $200,000 for municipalities located in the
metropolitan area, as defined in section 473.121, or
$125,000 for all other municipalities; and
(ii) if the expenditures are used to pay the cost of site
acquisition, relocation, demolition of existing structures, site
preparation, and pollution abatement on one or more
parcels, if the parcel contains a residence containing one to
four family dwelling units that has been vacant for six or
more months and is in foreclosure as defined in section
325N.10, subdivision 7, but without regard to whether the
residence is the owner's principal residence, and only after
the redemption period has expired.; or
(5) to assist owner-occupied housing that meets the requirements
of section 469.1761, subdivision 2.
(e) The authority under paragraph (d), clause (4), expires on December
31, 2016. Increments may continue to be expended under this authority
after that date, if they are used to pay bonds or binding contracts that
would qualify under subdivision 3, paragraph (a), if December 31, 2016,
is considered to be the last date of the five-year period after
certification under that provision.
EFFECTIVE DATE.
This section is effective the day following final enactment.
Sec. 3. Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 469.1763, subdivision 3, is

activity;
(2) bonds, the proceeds of which must be used to finance the
activity, are issued and sold to a third party before or within five

148(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, or are deposited in a

performance of the activity before or within five years after
certification of the district and the revenues are spent under the

subdivision 2, paragraphs (b) and (d), or for public infrastructure
purposes within a zone as permitted by subdivision 2, paragraph
(e).
(b) For purposes of this subdivision, bonds include subsequent
refunding bonds if the original refunded bonds meet the requirements
of paragraph (a), clause (2).

certified after June 30, 2003, and before April 20, 2009, the five-year
periods described in paragraph (a) are extended to ten years after

FOREWORD
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
(the "HRA"), the City of Richfield (the "City"), staff and consultants have
prepared the following information to expedite the Modification of
Interchange West and Lyndale Gateway TIF District (the "District"), a
scattered site redevelopment tax increment financing district, located in
Richfield Redevelopment Project Area.
STATUTORY AUTHORITY
Within the City, there exist areas where public involvement is necessary to
cause development or redevelopment to occur. To this end, the HRA and City
have certain statutory powers pursuant to Minnesota Statutes ("M.S."),
Sections 469.001 - 469.047, inclusive, as amended, and M.S., Sections 469.174
to 469.1794, 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 Modification to the Tax Increment Financing Plan
(the "Modification") for the District. Other relevant information is contained in
the Richfield Redevelopment Project Area.
STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES
The Interchange West component is comprised of the Best Buy Corporate
Headquarters located on the intersection of I-494 and Penn Ave. The first
year of full increment was 2004. Tax increments are pledged to the Best Buy
project to assist with site assembly activities.
The Lyndale Gateway component is comprised of the Richfield Senior
Housing project (Main Street Village) and the Minnstar Builders, Inc. project
(Casteel Place Townhouses). The first year of full increment was 2002. Tax
increment revenue is pledged to the project to assist with site assembly
expenses.
The HRA is modifying the TIF Plan to allow the HRA to pool an additional 10%
of tax increment to the Housing Trust Fund under Minnesota Statutes
469.1763, Subdivision 2, Paragraph (b) and (d) and Minnesota Session Laws –
2021, 1st Special Session, Chapter 14 – HF No. 9, Article 9, Section 1 through
Section 5.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to Interchange West and Lyndale Gateway TIF District 2
The activities contemplated in the Redevelopment Program and the TIF Plan
do not preclude the undertaking of other qualified development or
redevelopment activities. These activities are anticipated to occur over the
life of Richfield Redevelopment Project Area and the District.
ESTIMATED PUBLIC COSTS
As modified May 16, 2022
Section 2-10 of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Interchange West and
Lyndale Gateway TIF District shall be amended as follows:
The May 16, 2022 Amendment contains the cumulative estimated project
costs, including the previously identified costs from the original and previous
amendments. The total project cost, including financing costs (interest) listed
in the table on the following page does not exceed the total projected tax
increments for the District as shown in the Sources of Revenue section.
ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS
The budget is being modified to allow the HRA to pool an additional 10% of
tax increment to the Housing Trust Fund under Minnesota Statutes 469.1763,
Subdivision 2, Paragraph (b) and (d) and Minnesota Session Laws – 2021, 1st
Special Session, Chapter 14 – HF No. 9, Article 9, Section 1 through Section 5.

Estimated costs associated with the District are subject to change among
categories without a modification to this TIF Plan. 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. The City may expend funds for qualified housing activities
outside of the District boundaries.
Section 2-11 of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Interchange West and
Lyndale Gateway TIF District shall be amended as follows:
ESTIMATED SOURCES OF REVENUE
SOURCES June 14, 1999 November 13, 2007 May 16, 2022
Tax Increment 121,540,000$ 130,545,307$ 130,545,307$

Transfers In - 2,593,833 -
TOTAL 127,617,000$ 141,839,000$ 141,839,000$
The costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the
annual collection of tax increments. The HRA reserves the right to incur
bonds or other indebtedness as a result of the TIF Plan. Any refunding
amounts will be deemed a budgeted cost without a formal TIF Plan
Modification. This provision does not obligate the HRA to incur debt. The
HRA will issue bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that
such action is in the best interest of the HRA.
The City or HRA may issue bonds (as defined in the TIF Act) secured in whole
or in part with tax increments from the District in a maximum principal
amount of $141,839,000. Such bonds may be in the form of pay-as-you-go
notes, revenue bonds or notes, general obligation bonds, or interfund loans.
This estimate of total bonded indebtedness is a cumulative statement of
authority under this TIF Plan as of the date of approval.

Appendix B: Legislation
Section 1. Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 469.176, is amended by adding
a subdivision to read:
Subd. 4n. Temporary use of increment authorized.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section or any other law
to the contrary, except the requirements to pay bonds to which
increments are pledged, the authority may elect, by resolution, to
transfer unobligated increment for one or more of the following
purposes:
(1) to provide improvements, loans, interest rate subsidies, or
assistance in any form to private development consisting of the
construction or substantial rehabilitation of buildings and ancillary
facilities, if doing so will create or retain jobs in the state,
including construction jobs, and the construction commences
before December 31, 2025, and would not have commenced
before that date without the assistance; or
(2) to make an equity or similar investment in a corporation,
partnership, or limited liability company that the authority
determines is necessary to make construction of a development
that meets the requirement of clause (1) financially feasible.
(b) For each calendar year for which transfers are permitted under this
subdivision, the maximum transfer equals the excess of the district's
unobligated increment which includes any increment not required for
payments of obligations due during six months following the transfer on
outstanding bonds, binding contracts, and other outstanding financial
obligations of the district to which the district's increment is pledged.
(c) The authority may transfer increments permitted under this
subdivision after creating a written spending plan that authorizes the
authority to take the action described in paragraph (a) and details the
use of transferred increment. Additionally, the municipality must
approve the authority's spending plan after holding a public hearing.
The municipality must publish notice of the hearing in a newspaper of
general circulation in the municipality and on the municipality's public
website at least ten days, but not more than 30 days, prior to the date
of the hearing.
(d) Increment that is improperly retained, received, spent, or transferred
is not eligible for transfer under this subdivision.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to Interchange West and Lyndale Gateway TIF District
(e) An authority making a transfer under this subdivision must provide
to the Office of the State Auditor a copy of the spending plan approved
and signed by the municipality.
(f) The authority to transfer increments under this subdivision expires
on December 31, 2022. All transferred increments must be spent by
December 31, 2025. Increment not spent by December 31, 2025, must
be returned to the district. If the district has already been decertified,
the increment shall be treated as excess increment and distributed as
provided in subdivision 2, paragraph (c), clause (4).
EFFECTIVE DATE.
This section is effective the day following final enactment and applies to
increments from any district that are unobligated as of the date of final
enactment regardless of when the request for certification was made.
Sec. 2. Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 469.1763, subdivision 2, is
amended to read:
Subd. 2. Expenditures outside district.
(a) For each tax increment financing district, an amount equal to at
least 75 percent of the total revenue derived from tax increments paid
by properties in the district must be expended on activities in the
district or to pay bonds, to the extent that the proceeds of the bonds
were used to finance activities in the district or to pay, or secure
payment of, debt service on credit enhanced bonds. For districts, other
than redevelopment districts for which the request for certification was
made after June 30, 1995, the in-district percentage for purposes of the
preceding sentence is 80 percent. Not more than 25 percent of the total
revenue derived from tax increments paid by properties in the district
may be expended, through a development fund or otherwise, on
activities outside of the district but within the defined geographic area
of the project except to pay, or secure payment of, debt service on
credit enhanced bonds. For districts, other than redevelopment districts
for which the request for certification was made after June 30, 1995, the
pooling percentage for purposes of the preceding sentence is 20
percent. The revenues derived from tax increments paid by properties
in the district that are expended on costs under section 469.176,
subdivision 4h, paragraph (b), may be deducted first before calculating
the percentages that must be expended within and without the district.
(b) In the case of a housing district, a housing project, as defined in
section 469.174, subdivision 11, is an activity in the district.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to Interchange West and Lyndale Gateway TIF District
(c) All administrative expenses are for activities outside of the district,
except that if the only expenses for activities outside of the district
under this subdivision are for the purposes described in paragraph (d),
administrative expenses will be considered as expenditures for activities
in the district.
(d) The authority may elect, in the Previous tax Next Previous increment
Next financing plan for the district, to increase by up to ten percentage
points the permitted amount of expenditures for activities located
outside the geographic area of the district under paragraph (a). As
permitted by section 469.176, subdivision 4k, the expenditures,
including the permitted expenditures under paragraph (a), need not be
made within the geographic area of the project. Expenditures that meet
the requirements of this paragraph are legally permitted expenditures
of the district, notwithstanding section 469.176, subdivisions 4b, 4c, and
4j. To qualify for the increase under this paragraph, the expenditures
must:
(1) be used exclusively to assist housing that meets the
requirement for a qualified low-income building, as that term is
used in section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code; and
(2) not exceed the qualified basis of the housing, as defined under
section 42(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, less the amount of
any credit allowed under section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code;
and
(3) be used to:
(i) acquire and prepare the site of the housing;
(ii) acquire, construct, or rehabilitate the housing; or
(iii) make public improvements directly related to the
housing; or
(4) be used to develop housing:
(i) if the market value of the housing does not exceed the
lesser of:
(A) 150 percent of the average market value of single-
family homes in that municipality; or
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to Interchange West and Lyndale Gateway TIF District
(B) $200,000 for municipalities located in the
metropolitan area, as defined in section 473.121, or
$125,000 for all other municipalities; and
(ii) if the expenditures are used to pay the cost of site
acquisition, relocation, demolition of existing structures, site
preparation, and pollution abatement on one or more
parcels, if the parcel contains a residence containing one to
four family dwelling units that has been vacant for six or
more months and is in foreclosure as defined in section
325N.10, subdivision 7, but without regard to whether the
residence is the owner's principal residence, and only after
the redemption period has expired.; or
(5) to assist owner-occupied housing that meets the requirements
of section 469.1761, subdivision 2.
(e) The authority under paragraph (d), clause (4), expires on December
31, 2016. Increments may continue to be expended under this authority
after that date, if they are used to pay bonds or binding contracts that
would qualify under subdivision 3, paragraph (a), if December 31, 2016,
is considered to be the last date of the five-year period after
certification under that provision.
EFFECTIVE DATE.
This section is effective the day following final enactment.
Sec. 3. Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 469.1763, subdivision 3, is
amended to read:
Subd. 3. Five-year rule.
(a) Revenues derived from Previous tax Next increments paid by
properties in the district are considered to have been expended on an
activity within the district under subdivision 2 only if one of the
following occurs:
(1) before or within five years after certification of the district, the
revenues are actually paid to a third party with respect to the
activity;
(2) bonds, the proceeds of which must be used to finance the
activity, are issued and sold to a third party before or within five
years after certification, the revenues are spent to repay the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Richfield
Modification to Interchange West and Lyndale Gateway TIF District
bonds, and the proceeds of the bonds either are, on the date of
issuance, reasonably expected to be spent before the end of the
later of (i) the five-year period, or (ii) a reasonable temporary
period within the meaning of the use of that term under section
148(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, or are deposited in a
reasonably required reserve or replacement fund;
(3) binding contracts with a third party are entered into for
performance of the activity before or within five years after
certification of the district and the revenues are spent under the
contractual obligation;
(4) costs with respect to the activity are paid before or within five
years after certification of the district and the revenues are spent
to reimburse a party for payment of the costs, including interest
on unreimbursed costs; or
(5) expenditures are made for housing purposes as permitted by
subdivision 2, paragraphs (b) and (d), or for public infrastructure
purposes within a zone as permitted by subdivision 2, paragraph
(e).
(b) For purposes of this subdivision, bonds include subsequent
refunding bonds if the original refunded bonds meet the requirements
of paragraph (a), clause (2).
(c) For a redevelopment district or a renewal and renovation district
certified after June 30, 2003, and before April 20, 2009, the five-year
periods described in paragraph (a) are extended to ten years after
certification of the district. For a redevelopment district certified after
April 20, 2009, and before June 30, 2012, the five-year periods
described in paragraph (a) are extended to eight years after
certification of the district. This extension is provided primarily to
accommodate delays in development activities due to unanticipated
economic circumstances.
(d) For a redevelopment district that was certified after December 31,
2017, and before June 30, 2020, the five-year periods described in
paragraph (a) are extended to eight years after certification of the

under subdivision 3, paragraph (d), if the applicable in-district percent
of the revenues derived from tax increments paid by properties in the
district exceeds the amount of expenditures that have been made for
costs permitted under subdivision 3, an amount equal to the difference
between the in-district percent of the revenues derived from tax
increments paid by properties in the district and the amount of
expenditures that have been made for costs permitted under

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
Consideration of the approval of a Contract for Private Development between the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority and Tao Gong and Huan Ma for the redevelopment of 6644 Logan
Avenue South under the Richfield Rediscovered Credit Program.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Tao Gong and Huan Ma (Owners) are applying for a Richfield Rediscovered Credit (Credit) to remove the
existing substandard home on their double-lot at 6644 Logan Avenue South and construct a new home.
Approval for the Credit would offer the Owners a $50,000 contribution towards the construction of their new
home.
The Owners purchased the home in October 2021 with the intention of building a new home. They have hired
Denis Cherniy with DVC Co. Renovations and Exteriors to act as their general contractor (Builder) for the
project.
The new home would be a one-story home with a walk-out basement. It would have three bedrooms,
three bathrooms and an attached three-car garage. The new home will have 2,786 finished square feet with
a minimum end-value of $420,000. Additionally, the Owners are prioritizing energy efficiency in the design of
the home, and are planning to install a geothermal heating system, and to utilize Insulated-Concrete-Forms
(ICF) for the construction of the home. This will result in a highly efficient home.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion: Approve and authorize execution of a Contract for Private Development between
the Housing and Redevelopment Authority and Tao Gong and Huan Ma for the redevelopment of 6644
Logan Avenue South.
BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION:
A.HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The Owners purchased the existing home on October 29, 2021.
The existing home was inspected and qualified as substandard, per the Credit program guidelines.
The existing structure had insufficient wall, attic and foundation-level insulation, in addition
to substandard windows. Significant damage to the foundation was present, in addition to
severe water damage in the basement and along the exterior of the home.
The Owners have submitted a complete application for a $50,000 Credit to redevelop the
property.
The proposed 2,786 square-foot house will have three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a three-car
attached garage. Future work to finish the basement will allow for an additional two bedrooms, one
bathroom and additional 1,300 square-feet of living space.
B.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, etc):
The proposed project meets the objectives of the Credit program:
Removes substandard, functionally obsolete housing and eliminates its blighting influence.
Provides new, higher valued housing.
Alleviates a shortage of 'move-up' housing for families.
Facilitates the Housing and Redevelopment Authority's (HRA) efforts to add new, market-
rate, owner-occupied housing that meets the needs of modern families.
The project meets the Housing Design and Site Development Criteria, as defined in the Credit
program guidelines.
Approval of the Credit would be within the guidelines of the HRA's Inclusionary Housing Policy:
over a three-year period, at least 20% of the scattered site units constructed must be affordable
at 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI).
From 2021-2023, the HRA is anticipating the construction or rehabilitation of four market
rate homes and four affordable homes (50% affordable).
C.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
Due to supply-chain concerns and delays, the Owners are eager to move forward and begin
construction.
D.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Under the terms of the Contract for Private Development (Contract), the $50,000 will be
distributed in one installment, due and payable upon completion of construction.
The 2022 Credit budget allows for two Credit projects.
E.LEGAL CONSIDERATION:
The HRA Attorney has reviewed the terms of the Contract.
Mailed notification is not required on this item, however, a courtesy notice will be mailed to nearby
property owners once building permits are submitted.
ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S):
Do not execute the Contract.
Amend the Contract and direct staff to work with the Builder to revise the proposal.
