IMP. PROJECT 510 President Erickson introduced for discussion Item 4, Resolution Approving
Item.4 Multi-Family Housing Policy Loan for New Hope Apartments, 7200-7260
43rd Avenue North (Improvement Project No. 510).
Mr. Dan Donahue, City Manager, explained that last fall the EDA
established a policy for providing rehabilitation loans to owners of multi-
family housing complexes in the City in order to maintain high standards,
retain property value, and retain good tenants.
Mr. Kirk McDonald, Management Assistant/Community Development
Coordinator, stated the policy was developed with the assistance Gary
Stout, of Public-Private Ventures, Inc. He noted that prior to the
development of the policy the City was approached by the owners of New
Hope Apartments for rehab assistance. Mr. McDonald explained that loan
documents for the four-building complex at 7200-7260 43rd Avenue North
have been developed consistent with the established policy. The total
project cost for the rehabilitation is $194,700. The property owners will
provide 50 percent of the project cost under the proposal, with the balance
of the funds in the form of an EDA loan. The City would approve all
construction contracts for the various parts of the project and would
advance the loan funds only after the items of work have been completed
and the property owner has already paid their half to the contractor.
The project involves rehabilitation of basic needs for the complex such as
roof replacement, window replacement, installation of a security system,
asphalt patching in the parking lot, removal of a concrete surface from a
former swimming pool, interior and exterior painting, furnace upgrades,
plumbing repairs, and smoke detectors.
Mr. McDonald stated Mr. Stout has performed an independent objective
financial analysis of the New Hope Apartments financial statements and
it is his opinion that private funds are not reasonably available to fund the
entire project.
Commissioner Enck questioned the soure of EDA funds.
Mr. Donahue stated that each year the city may take 10 percent of
revenues generated by a tax increment district for the City's administrative
New Hope EDA February 28, 1994

costs. Those funds go into the EDA account which has been accumu
over the years and is now approximately $600.000.
Commissioner Enck inquired regarding the property value and incr~
taxes.
Mr. Donahue stated these are maintenance items so he does not bI
the project will result in a substantial increase in market value.
Mr. Gary Stout. Public-Private Ventures. was recognized. He indicate
value of the building is less than its first mortgage. He stated the rr
value has been declining and with the improvements he feels the vail
now stabilize and slowly increase over time. He stated the buildin
been losing substantial sums in recent years and maintenance has
deferred. With the improvements and reduction in utility costs d
window replacements and insulation, the losses should cease. The
documents also specify that rents cannot be raised higher tha~
consumer price index rate so that the City will not be faced with
tenants.
The loan is proposed to be both a second mortgage and in the firs
years personally guaranteed. It will be a zero percent loan to be rep
the rate of 1 percent per month with no interest (if no defaults) and ~
be repaid after 8-1/3 years.
Mr. Stout explained the repayment risk and the advantages of a pro'
a loan rather than a grant.
President Erickson questioned the bidding process.
Mr. Stout pointed out that bids will be required from at least two
related entities on each item. The bids will be reviewed by city sta~
the building official. The City has the right to obtain another bid o
questionable items.
Mr. Stout confirmed that both the taxes and mortgage are current.
Commissioner Otten questioned if the owner was restricted from .~
the building.
Mr. Stout stated the owner can sell it at any time; however, if this ¢
the EDA loan must be repaid immediately.
The EDA and City Manager extended their appreciation to Kirk McDI
Steve Sondrall. and Mr. Stout for the work involved with this proje,

DISCUSSION REGARDING REQUEST FOR INTEREST RATE REDUCTION ON EDA LOAN BY
AUTOHAUS OF MINNEAPOLIS, INC. AND REVIEW OF ADDENDUM TO DEVELOPMENT
CONTRACT (IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 467)
Per the enclosed correspondence, Tom Boettcher of Autohaus is requesting consideration for an
interest rate reduction on the EDA loan made in 1991 for acquisition of the former Animal Hospital
site and for development improvements to the property. The EDA loaned Autohaus $187,500
beginning on April 4, 1991, at an interest rate of 9%. Total monthly payments of $3,379.81 were
to have been made to the City under the original loan schedule. Boettcher has exceeded the monthly
payments and is almost $25,000 in advance of the agreed upon payment schedule. Boettcher states
that at the time of the loan the intent was to provide a better-than-market interest rate and 9 % was an
excellent rate at that time. However, due to the drop in interest rates over the past 2-1/2 years, he
states that the advantage to this rate no longer exists. He is requesting that the interest rate be reduced
to 6.5 % to give them back a proportional advantage.
The enclosed attachments show the "original payment schedule," "payments due per original
schedule," "payments made to date" and "interest rate assumptions. Payments made to date equal
$103,995.67 and payments due per date equal $78,691.35; or payments are $25,304.32 ahead of
schedule. Staff is generally agreeable with an interest rate reduction, but feels that 6.5% may be too
low in light of the fact that interest rates are now rising (the Finance Director recommends 7.5 %).
Another consideration should be the status of the development improvements on the property. While
most of the work agreed upon to be completed by October, 1993, has been accomplished, several
items have not: landscaping, striping and front retaining wall issue needs to be resolved. Staff
recommends that the Addendum to the Development Contract again be revised to reflect the
improvements that were actually completed by October, 1993, and to state which remaining
improvements will be completed by October, 1994.

Dear Mr. Donahue:
HONDA Enclosed please find a copy of the present balance du,
on the Autohaus property. As you can see, we have id
almost $25,000 in advance of the agreed upon pa nt
CHRYSLER schedule, and all payments were made well before the
monthly due date.
~ Originally, back in 1989-90, when the finance packa~ as
set up for Autohaus on the purchase of the two pie~ of
property, we were to have a better-than market in~ st
B~W rate of 9%. At the time, this was an excellent rate.
However, due to the drop in interest rates over the st
two and a half years, the advantage to this rate no er
MERCEDES exists. Therefore, I am requesting at this time the he
interest rate be brought in line with the genera] te
today, which would be 6.5%. This rate would be propo n-
VOLVO ate in order to give us back an advantage.
Enclosed is the tentative schedule for final settleme f
ACURA the loan for Autohaus. I look fo~ard to hearing frol u
soon. Thank you.

RESOLUTION APPROVING SUBMISSION OF THE MINNESOTA CITY PARTICIPATION PROGRAM (MCPP)
APPLICATION TO THE MINNESOTA HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY (MHFA)
The MCPP is a program through the MHFA in which the MHFA is able to sell mortgage revenue bonds on
behalf of participating cities to meet locally-identified housing needs. The proceeds from the bonds provide
below-market interest rate mortgage loans for Iow and moderate income first-time homebuyers. This resource
is available to cities throughout the state.
This year the local housing pool for mortgage revenue bonds is estimated to be around $43 million. Cities
can apply for an allotment of between $250,000 to $4 million. The City of New Hope is applying for 92
million.
For 1994, the MCPP program term is six months. During the first four months, participating cities have
exclusive use of their individual allotment. During the final two months, the individual allotments will go into
a statewide pool that will be available to all MCPP participating cities. This allows cities with higher demands
to access funds that were not used during the preceding four month period. The program term will begin
shortly after the bond sale which should occur during the summer of 1994.
In order for persons to apply for money through this program they must:
a) be a first-time homebuyer;
b) occupy the home within 60 days of mortgage closing;
c) meet certain household income requirements (931,744 or less (for a family of four);
d) and purchase an existing home for 985,000 or less, or build new for 995,000 or less.
The fee for participating in the program is 920 for each 9100,000 in allotment provided. Also, an application
deposit of 1% of the allocation amount specified in the agreement. The 1% deposit is refunded within a
month of the closing of the bond sale.

III. HOUSING PLAN
The plan must contain the following: (see Attachment C)
(a) A description of your city's principle housing needs.
(b) The data sources or methods used to determine the described needs.
(c) The specific plan developed to meet your identified housing needs, including the
resources to be assessed, and the methods to carry out the plan.
(d)- Description of any target areas to be addressed in the plan.
The plan does not mention any specific areas. However, neighborhoods that are
blighted and scattered site housing areas will be targeted.
(e) How the plan will be implemented and the administrative capacity of your city to do so.
The New Hope Economic Development Authority will implement the plan.
IV. PROGRAM SPECIFICS
(a) How your program fits into your comprehensive housing plan.
The New Hope Housing Action Plan promotes providing housing for Iow and moderate
income families and addresses the need to attract young persons to the City. The
Housing Plan also specifies the need to redevelop areas that have substandard.
housing. The MCPP addresses these concerns by focusing on the needs of first-time
h'omebuyers and encouraging homeownership. It also enables young or modest
income persons to purchase homes in the City of New Hope and correct existing
housing deficiencies.
(b) Borrower income limits.
80% of HUD area median income (currently $39,680 for a family of four).
(c) Home purchase price limits.
Existing: $85,000
New $95,000
(d) Targeting of specific population groups, if any.
The City of New Hope will make the program available City-wide to any eligible first-
time homebuyer.
The City will make sure that notices are sent to area realtors informing them of the
City's participation in the program. Information on the program will also be published
in the City newsletter, local newspapers, and on local cable stations.
(e) Targeting of area of housing stock, if any (e.g., rehab areas, new construction
developments, etc.)
New Hope is a fully developed second ring suburb. Therefore, the City will concentrate
on blighted neighborhoods and housing that qualifies for the New Hope Scattered Site
Housing Acquisition Program.
(f) Any optional program enhancements such as subsidy funds, waived fees, use of tax-
forfeit properties, etc.
There will be no optional program enhancements.
(g) Any proposed schedule for release of funds.
The schedule for release of funds within the six-month set-side period will
immediate.
V. ECONOMIC VIABILITY
Describe why you feel there is sufficient demand in your market to use the MCPP funds reque
in this application. Indicate the data sources used to project demand, such as real estate s
over the past year; realtor, builder or lender information; indicators of a housing shortage;
recent area business/economic expansion.
This is the first year the City of New Hope has applied for the Minnesota City Participa
Program. We are making this application for two reasons. First, due to the positive respo
in surrounding communities, the City believes that this program would be useful and benef
in New Hope. In MIS area 575, which includes New Hope, Crystal, and Robbinsdale, over;
homes were sold in the past year. Of these, 62% sold for $90,000 or less.
Secondly, New Hope has an abundance of homes priced under $85,000 that are availabl~
first-time homebuyers. The report presented in Attachment D shows real estate activit
New Hope from April 1993, to April 1994. Over 200 single family residences were sol
New Hope last year. Of these, 36% sold for $90,000 or less.
VI. NEW CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
Only newly constructed homes on lots designated as part of the New Hope Scattered:
Acquisition Program will be allowed to qualify for New Hope's MOPP. The New Hope Scatt~
Site Acquisition Program uses federal funds to acquire properties that are substandard
unoccupied. The substandard homes are then demolished and the City either builds a ~
home on the site, which is then sold, or the cleared site is sold in a bidding proc,
Therefore, category "b" will be incorporated into New Hope's program.

RE: Housing Action Plan
This letter transmits the proposed Housing Action Plan which has been Formulated
as part of the current City's Community Development Program effort. This document
reiterates the residential and housing policies contained in the City-wide Comprehensive
Plan and when viewed in conjunction with the Comprehensive Development Framework
Area Plans provides a direction and course of action For the City in the specialized
field of housing improvement.
In view of recent manditory planning legislation enacted For the Twin Cities Metro-
poiltan Area, it is recommended that this document be processed with the City's
revised Comprehensive Plan and be submitted to the Metropolitan Council For review
and comment. This suggestion is made with the recognition that New Hope will not
have received its Metropolitan Systems Statement which is required For full compliance
under the New Planning Act. However, it is anticipated that this document, when
combined with the ComprehensJve Plan, w~ll to a ma[or extent meet the required
stipulations to be imposed on communirles in the near Future.
The preparation of this report and prior aspects of New Hope's housing activities
addressed as part of the 1975-76 Community Development Program have been a combined
product of Midwest Planning and Research, Inc. and Minnesota Community Develop-
ment Services. In thls regard, Mr. Wayne Cox, President of Minnesota Community
Development Services, should be recognized For his valued contributions to our program.
His background and experience have contributed substantially to what we consider a
realistic, action-oriented program for New Hope.
It has been our sincere pleasure to work for the C[ty of New Hope in this undertaking
as well as the other aspects of the 1975-76 Community Development Program. We would
hope that there would be opportunity in the future to provide implementation services ~'o
bring about a realization and effectuation of the plans which we have assisted the
community in formulating.
Very truly yours,

REGIONAL SETTING
New Hope is a second ring suburban community which experienced rapid
development during the decade of the 1960's. Characteristic of suburban
construction trends of that time, resldent[al development in New Hope
· today consists primarily of single Family homes or apartments.
Within the context of the near northwest suburban sector, New Hope can be
described as a maturing Family community. The adjacent communities of
Crystal and Robblnsdale which experienced major growth much earlier than
New Hope, have reached a mature stage of development. In this regard,
although these communlt[es likewise are "family" communities, they also
have substantial numbers of elderly residents. While the growing communities
of Brooklyn Park, Plymouth and Maple Grove are For the most part family
communities as well, they are oriented particularly to younger households.
Given its position w~thin the northwest sector, New Hope has geared its
housing responses toward maintaining the existing housing stock, rehabil[tating
any deteriorating housing and providing a greater range of housing choice.
It should be noted that expanding housing choice is intended in part to respond
to the housing needs of a growing elderly population within New Hope.
HOUSING NEEDS
Communi'ry Development Plan Report #2 outlined an overall projected demand
For 94 new housing units per year through 1985. Relative to Iow and moderate
income householdst New Hope has established a three year goat of 68 units under
the Federally Funded "Section 8 Existing" Program. Given the City's present
development status, 54 of these units have been designated For Families, with the
remaining 14 units designated For the elderly or handicapped. As will be discussea
in detail below, in essence, 60 new units will also be provided during the
next year through the Substantial Rehabilitation Program. In addition, again
over the three year period, the City will help Facilitate the disbursement of
50 home improvement loans and grants to eligible households.
Once the above goals have been achieved, it is the City's intent to reassess its
housing needs based upon the results and evaluation of the initial three years
as well as changing trends, priorities and Programs. It is antic[pated that during
this time period better data regarding employment opportunities, handicapped
housing needst etc. will be made available For use in pr. eparlng Future housing
goals.
Chief of these is the Iow interest rehabilitation loan program. Key to
success in many suburban communities is the Fact that middle income
families are eligible to secure these loans. The reduced interest rate,
approximately six to eight percentFor middle income Families (income
from $12,000 to $16,000 with adjustments), represents a three to Five
percent interest reduction. The state program is actually administered
through local banks and savings and loans.
[he state, in this program called the Home Improvement Program, likev
gives greater priority to cities who identify their local rehabilitation n~
and set Forth goals in a local plan as New Hope has done in its 1976
Community Development Housing Assistance Plan.
These loans will assist not only those Families Facing major home repairs
related to health and safety, b6t also families needing an extra room or
improved wiring and similar improvements. The program is Flexible enc
to serve as one of the City's main tools to provide an incentive to home
owners to maintain their residences.
The City's role is in seeing that these loans and grants are available to
residents and that the residents are encouraged to secure this assistance
Use of existing neighborhood organizations and encouragement of the fi on
of such organizations in neighborhoods where they are presently lacking,
help facilitate the effective channeling of information on available ass :e.
The City newsletter can serve as an additional information source in thi
regard.
A third phase should involve the increasing of coordination between th~
informational resources assembled through the maintenance code inspec
program and the neighborhood organizational framework. This coordlnc
will involve the City inspection staffs' ability to identify and communi¢
opportunities for joint neighborhood maintenance projects. The basis fc
promoting this joint approach is the history of New Hope's subdivision c ~p-
ment which has produced a pattern of neighborhood and sub-neighborhc
groupings of homes of similar construction and age. Given this pattern an
be anticipated that certain maintenance needs will arise in a particular
at roughly the same time. The objective of the joint approach would k
group contracts with Iow-bidding housing maintenance vendors for the t ~
of shared 'repair or replacement needs. Under the group approach, sub.~ ~1
savings can be achieved over individual contracting. Moreover, such
approach can result in increased neighborhood awareness and confidenc
10
This particular program is a new one For the state agency. It will be
considering its First substantial rehabilitation proposals For apartments
in the summer and fall of 1976. The City therefore should attempt to
assemble the information necessary during the summer of 1976.
The state has indicated it will give 'greater consideration to substantial
rehabilitation proposals when the city itself is involved in stimulating the
proposal, rather than when an apartment owner submits a proposal independent
of the city's planning. By listing the 60-unlt Section 8 substantial
rehabilitation proposal in its Community D~velopment Housing Assistance
Plan, New Hope has assured the project will have priority consideration.

Airports
MN/DOT Aeronautic Rule 14 MCAR 1.3009 provides control of genera
obstructions to air navigation. Until such time as the Joint Air
port Zoning Board meets and decisions are made on the ~pecific im
plementation of this and other rules, the City Zoning Ordinance p
rides performance standards to regulate radiation, electrical emi,
sions and glare from lights so as to confine these types of bazar,
tO the premises on which they occur.
Amendment 2
TRANSPORTATION
Concern has been expressed that the Comprehensive Plan did not ad.
quately address the question of accommodating and protecting the
metropolitan highway system and its local linkages. While it has
been assumed that current developmen't and local zoning controls
have eliminated any concern in this area, the plan should specifi
cally indicate the City's position in regard to this area of conc,
The following sections are adopted, to be added to the Plan docum,
as indicated:
Add to Page 20 - as a Pa%t 9, at the end of the General Transport
Goals.
9. Provide for the protection of access to all points of
access to County Road #18 so as to maintain the design
standards for access to the City's major link to the
metropolitan highway system.
Add to Page 23. as Point 4 in the Pedestrian/Bicycle Goals section
4. Cooperate with metropolitan agencies and adjacent commu-
nities in the implementation of inter-regional bicycle
routes.
Add to Page 57 as the next to last paragraph, these two statement.
County Highway #18 borders the entire west side of the City.
This highway is the major link between the City and the
metropolitan and interstate highway systems. It is a limi-
ted access highway that has five intersections providing
access to the community. Land use is established at all
intersections on the New Hope side of the highway. Access
points on the intersecting streets are limited either becaus
access has been purchased for some distance back from the in
tersection or as a result of the existing development patte~
It is recognized that the integrity of these intersections n.
to be protected and that new development or redevelopment w.
De reviewed specifically for affect on access. In addition,
City has an existing street system that provides for paralle.
north/south movement within neighborhoods adjacent to the hi!
-4 -
housing areas are very limited. As of September 1979, no land remains
for platting as single family home sites, and only twenty undeveloped
platted lots remain. There are several areas of two-family lots under
development. These are generally being developed as zero lot line
units to carry out the stated policy of encouragement of resident owner-
ship. The only remaining option is the rental market. Consequently,
the City will seek to expand opportunities in this area. Housing is
needed for both the iow and moderate income young family and for the
el d erl y.
The following section is to be added as an update to the August 1978
Housing Action Plan:
Add to Page. 2.6., a new section to read.
Ten Year Housing Goal
The City of New Hope has only a few acres of residentially
zoned land remaining for development. Parcels include:
R - 1 No unplatted land.
R - 2 19.76 acres at 49th/.#18 - city owned
R - 3 6.6.acres at 36th/#18 - privately owned
R - 4 10 acres at Boone/57th - Rosewood Corpora-
tion, owner.
R - 4 lots - two with space for 12 housing units
R - i lots - 20 - scattered and either with major
soil problems, held by adjacent property owners,
or. remaining lo:s in expensive subdivisions.
Based on the projections made earlier in this report, it is ap-
parent that there will be a need for additional housing for the
iow and moderate income family and elderly in the City. Because
of the limited available land for new development, rental apart-
ment units will be emphasized. The City will also be looking
at conversion of existing housing to City operated rental housing.
The actual need in the City is, of course, a matter of judgment.
The more subsidized housing provided, the greater the numbers
of people that will be attempting to secure it for their use.
The Metropolitan Council, April 23, 1978, indicates a need for
from 280 to 700 new units for New Hope in the next ten years.
Current Section 8 programs indicate a high demand of interest.
The City's earlier "Homestead" proposal, which was dropped be-
cause of strong neighborhood opposition, received indications
of interest from throughout the country.
Whatever the actual needs, 'they can best be met by a combination
of City and private developer action.
-6 -
Housing programs are consequently changing as ~oth governmer.
and private sectors attempt to develop programs to meet hou-~
needs. The City will continue to review new programs as the
develop for possible use within the City.
Amendment 4
SOLID WASTE:
A statement as to solid waste controls was not included in the o2
adoption of the City's Comprehensive Plan because it was felt tha
cally, solid waste was not a concern, since suitable controls exi
In order to provide a statement in the Plan to serve as a referen
the following section is adopted to be added to the Plan document
a new section on Page 63.
Solid Waste
Solid waste collection, storage, and disposal of all solid waste
in the City is controlled by existing ordinances that provide sp~
standards for handling solid waste.
The City was an original member of the North Suburban Sanitary Di
Authority that purchased a site in the city at 51st/CSAH#18 for a
cineration and transfer station. When the development of this si
proved unfeasible, the site was sold for industrial development a
City is forced to use disposal sites Outside the City for the dis
of waste that is collec~ed by a system of private collectors. Be
the availability of cur~'ent disposal sites within reasonable dist
of the City is a concern, the City Council has adopted a resoluti
support of Hennepin County's efforts to find and develop new dis~
sites and appointed delegates' to the County .Study Committee. No
tional local action is anticipated.
Amendment 5
SOLAR ACCESS
Use of solar energy to meet national energy needs is currently a 3ct
of much discussion. To date, nothing had been done at the local [
to encourage or implement a program for use of solar energy. The 3-
diate concern is for the preservation of solar access.
The City does not have the expertise needed to implement a progra
solar access protection and development at this time. The need f ach
a program is recognized and the intention is to take advantage of 31
ordinances and programs as they are developed.
The following section is adopted to be added to the Plan document
Page 63.
Solar Access
The City recognize~ that solar energy is now being examined
a possible major research in the search to meet the nation's
energy needs. If solar energy is to be utilized, access to
direct sunlight must be maintained. Currently, model regula
tions for use by local governmont are not available. The Ci
recognizes that the need to provide regulations exist and th
solar access must be developed. The City intends to monitor
developments in this area in order to adopt local controls a

D. On-site Sewage ~isposal S~stem
On-site sewage disposal systems are permitted in the City only
where municipal sewer service is not available. Municipal sew~
has been extended to the entire City with the exception of two
lots where an extension is scheduled for the Fall of 1979.
The two private systems are regulated by existin~ ordinance,
Chapter 5 (Section 5.05) of the City Code controls, but the
rems should be eliminated within the next few months.
III. HOUSING IMPLEMENTATION
The City has only a limited amount of land left fo~ residential de~ -
ment and has no remaining single family zoning area that is not pi~
As of October 1, 1979 approximately 20 platted lots for single fam~
development remained in the City. With three exceptions these lot~
all in areas of high value homes with floor areas exceeding the Ci~
minimum requirements.
A. Official Controls
1. The Zoning Ordinance does specify minimum floor areas for ~ e-
family homes of 1240 square feet, of which garage area, at' d
or detached, can~ount for up to 200 square feet and all f.
meeting residential occupancy standards are counted.
2. The Zoning Ordinance does require the construction of a ga.
with single family homes.
3. The Zoning Ordinance does provide the opportunity for the
velopment of single family homes on small lots through the
of zero lot line party wall structures, having each side o ~
attached homes on a 7000 square foot lot.
4. The Zoning Ordinance does not permit multi-family densitie 3
three story stuctures .of 20 units per acre. The limit is J its.
5. The Zoning Ordinance does specify floor area requirements
multi-family housing, ranging from 500 square feet for ef£
ciency units to 750 square feet for two bedroom units.
6. The Zoning Ordinance does require the construction of at l
one garage unit and 1% off-street parking spaces per unit b
multi-family housing. These are the minimum standards ex~ ~ce
has shown to be necessary to meet the needs of the resider f
apartment units at this time.
7.The Zoning Ordinance does permit PUD residential developm~
with a 10~ density bonus.
B. Low a~d Modera,te Income Housing Goal
The City's iow and moderate income housing goals will be acco~ he~
C. 2. the City to assure that residential property is kept in good
condition and to provide funds as necessary to assist the
lower income families when financial assistance is needed to
maintain housing at Code levels.
IV. GENERAL ACTIVITIES
The provisions contained in each of the official controls will be main-
tained and preserved through the life of the Comprehensive Plan unless
formally amended. Any amendments will be consistent with the Compre-
hensive Plan.

Dear Dan:
On behalf of Springsted Incorporated, I am pleased to respond to your request for a quote from
Springsted to do an analysis of the City's cash flow that will be generated by your existing tax
increment districts over their life in excess of that needed for current debt and to identify
financing and operational options available to the City. We have undertaken a number of such
studies for our clients in the recent past, and many of them like you are looking for alternative
ways to finance needed community facilities.
We propose to undertake this analysis on an hourly basis, and in no instance will the cost
exceed $4,000. We believe, given the quality of information that you have available and its
timely availability, we should be able to perform this task within the not-to-exceed limit. This
cost will also include any necessary meetings with the City staff and a presentation to your City
Council regarding our findings. In addition, should this study lead to the opportunity for
Springsted to issue any tax increment bonds for this project on behalf of the City, we will give a
credit for all costs associated with the study to that bond issue. Simply stated, having done the
background and analytical work on the study, it will allow us to undertake the sale process in a
more cost-effective manner.
If we are given direction to proceed on April 12, we should be able to complete the task no later
than your Council meeting on May 9th.
We, again, appreciate the opportunity to provide analytical services to the City of New Hope;
and I will see that the analysis is produced in a quality and timely manner. Should you have
any questions regarding this proposal, please feel free to call me at your convenience.
Yours truly, _ ~ r~

Re: Use of Tax Increment for Community Center
Dear Mr. Donahue:
You have advised me that the City of New Hope is considering the
construction of a new community center to be owned and operated by the City. I
my understanding that the community center will be used for recreational and
social activities. You have asked whether excess tax increment from existing tax
increment financing districts in the City may be used to pay costs of the commur
center, and if tax increment can be utilized for this purpose, what actions are
necessary to authorize such use.
There are presently six tax increment finandng districts in the City.
These districts were created by the City's ~ pursuant to separate tax incremen
financing plans approved by the t-IRA and the City Council. The financing planl
were approved to finance costs authorized to be paid or incurred by the City and
HRA in connection with a redevelopment plan and a redevelopment project
approved at the same time as the respective financing plan by the HRA. Initialb
property included in the redevelopment plan area was the same property that w
included in the tax increment financing district created by the respective tax
increment financing plan. The tax increment financing district provides the
mechanism to finance the public redevelopment costs of a redevelopment proje
Following the creation by the City Council of the City's EDA, the Cit
transferred control of the redevelopment plans and projects and the tax increm~
financing districts to the EDA. All of the tax increment financing districts were
DORSEY ~c WHITNEY
Page -2-
Mr. Daniel Donahue
March 3, 1994
created following the August 1, 1979 effective date of the Minnesota Tax Increment
Financing Act (which is now codified as Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.174 to
469.179). Listed below are the six tax increment financing districts:
I-Iennepin County District
Designation Number Description
1601 VOA
1602 36th & Hilboro
1603 & 1604 North Ridge
1605 Broadway LaNel (Anthony
James Apartments)
1606 & 1608 42nd Avenue
1607 Emerald Point Apartments
Under the Tax Increment Financing Act tax increment from a tax
increment financing district may be expended in the related "project" area for the
district. The project area may include additional property not included in the tax
increment financing district. In the case of the City's tax increment finandng
districts, the project area where tax increment from such district may be expended is
the property subject to the related redevelopment plan and prOject for such district.
In the case of certain of the districts (North Ridge, 42nd Avenue and Broadway
LaNel), the EDA and City have approved amendments to redevelopment plans and
tax increment financing plans to expand the redevelopment plan area in order to
finance expenditures in such additional area with tax increments from a tax
increment financing district, without including such additional property in the tax
increment financing district. In 1989 the North Ridge tax increment financing
district was expanded to include Community Center Park which is where I
understand the new community center is proposed to be located. The EDA and City
could approve amendments to expand the redevelopment plan areas for the
redevelopment plans associated with any or all of the six tax increment finandng
districts to include the area where the community center will be located and also
amend the financing plans for each of the tax increment financing districts to
authorize the expenditure of excess tax increment from the districts for the costs of
the community center. The area subject to the tax increment financing districts
would not be expanded to include the property where the community center is to be
located. By these amendments the City would utilize tax increment to pay the costs
of the community center.
DOlCSEY ~ WHITNEY
Page -3-
Mr. Daniel Donahue
March 3, 1994
In 1990 the Minnesota Legislature amended the Tax Increment
Financing Act to limit the ability to use tax increment from a tax increment
financing district to pay the costs of projects located outside the geographic area o
the district. This is commonly referred to as the "pooling" limitation. However~
this pooling limitation only applies to tax increment financing districts where th
request for certification was filed after April 30, 1990, so it is not applicable to the
City's tax increment financing districts (and therefore will not limit the City's abi
to utilize tax increment to finance the community center). The Tax Increment
Financing Act contains a prohibition on the use of tax increment for governme~
buildings but the section containing this prohibition contains a specific exceptior
a facility used for social, recreational or conference purposes. So this prohibition
will not apply to the community center based upon what I understand to be the
intended use of the community center.
If the City Council wishes to use tax increment to pay costs of the
community center I would recommend that the EDA and City approve a master
modification to the existing redevelopment plans and tax increment financing
plans. The master modification will enlarge the area subject to each amended
redevelopment plan to include the location of the community center and provic
for the construction of the community center as part of a redevelopment project,
and will also amend the tax increment financing plans and budgets to authorize
expenditures of tax increment from the various districts for the costs of the
community center. In approving this master modification the City Council will
required to make the findings required under the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority Act and Tax Increment Financing Act concerning the necessity of
utilizing tax increment for this purpose and that the redevelopment plans and t~
increment financing plans conforms to the general plan for development of the,
as a whole and affords maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs
the City as a whole, for the development of the project by private enterprise. Th,
City should be able to justify this expenditure of tax increment on the basis that i
providing a needed public facility which will benefit the community as a whole,
including the residents and businesses located in the tax increment financing
districts. The following actions will need to be taken to approve the master
modification:
1. A public hearing on the master modification needs to be
held by the City Council. Notice of the public hearing and a map
showing the tax increment financing districts and redevelopment plan
areas needs to be published in the City's official newspaper once not
less than 10 days nor more than 30 days prior to the hearing.
DORSEY ~: WHITNEY
Page 4-
Mr. Daniel Donahue
March 3, 1994
2. At least 30 days before a public hearing on the master
modification the EDA is required to submit to Hennepin County and
School District No. 281 information with respect to the fiscal and
economic implications of the modification and provide members of
their respective Boards an opportunity to meet with the EDA. The
fiscal and economic implications of the master modification will be to
keep the tax increment financing districts in existence for longer than
would otherwise have been the case, thereby delaying the time when
the captured tax capacity of the districts is available for taxation by the
other local governmental units.
3. The EDA must adopt a resolution approving the master
modification.
4. Following the required public hearing the City Council
must adopt a resolution approving the master modification.
I~ the City w':shes to proceed with the modificat':on, the City should
consider only amending the redevelopment plans which relate to the tax increment
financing districts from which the most excess tax increment will be derived, and to
the extent feasible drafting the modification so that all redevelopment plan areas are
contiguous. This type of "nexus" among the areas will make it easier for the City
Council and EDA to make required findings related to the master modification
required under the Tax Increment Financing Act and Housing and Redevelopment
Authority Act, and less likely that someone can criticize the City's actions.
Should you have any questions concerning the foregoing, please give
me a call.
Yours trulT.'

MEMORANDUM
DATE: March 21, 1994
TO: Dan Donahue
FROM: Larry Watts
SUBJECT: COMBINED'CASH FLOW PROJECTION OF TIF DISTRICTS,
EXCLUDING TIF NO. 6 (BROADWAY LANEL).
Attached herewith is a combined cash flow statement for the
City's TIF Districts. I based tax increments on 1994, and
not consider the closing of any TIF Districts. I used a 4~
interest return on investments. Expenditures are based or ~t
service, closing of some existing improvement projects, an~
estimated $1,000,000 for adult day care.
As you will note the accumulated balance out in 2004 would
$18,097,830.
This is just a general idea and a quick start. After you ~
had time to review we can discuss and put together some fi!
numbers.
