EXHIBIT A TO RESOLUTION NO. 90-13
The reasons and facts supporting the findings for the
establishment of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax
Increment Financing District No. 1-10 as required, pursuant to
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, Subd. 3, are as follows:
1. Find that Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-10 is a
"economic development district" as defined in Minnesota Statutes,
Section 469.174, Subd. 12.
Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-10 consists of one
parcel which does not meet the requirements of a redevelopment
district, mined underground space development district, housing
district or soils correction district. The Authority and City
find Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-10 to be in the public
interest because:
1. It will discourage commerce, industry, or manufacturing
from moving their operations to another state; and
2. It will result in increased employment in the
municipality; and
3. It will result in preservation and enhancement of the tax
base of the municipality.
2. Finding that the proposed development, in the opinion of the
Council, would not occur solely through private investment within
this reasonable foreseeable future, and therefore, the use of
tax increment financing is deemed necessary.
City staff has been actively recruiting the location of this
plant expansion in the City of Monticello over the last six
months. The project costs associated with a Monticello
location were not deemed as competitive with other potential
sites without the direct offer of City assistance through Tax
Increment Financing.
3. Finding that the Tax Increment Financing Plan conforms to
the general plan for the development or redevelopment of the
municipality as a whole.
The Monticello Planning Commission reviewed the Tax Increment
Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-10 on
March 6, 1990, and has determined that the Tax Increment
Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-10
conforms to the Comprehensive Plan of the City.
ibit A to Resolution 90-13
e 2
Find that the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment
Financing District No. 1-10 will afford maximum opportunity,
consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the
development of redevelopment Project No. 1 by private enterprise.
The project to be developed, which will be located within
Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-10, consists of the
construction of a 23,300 square foot manufacturing and office
facility to be constructed beginning in May, 1990, and completed
by January 1, 1991. It is anticipated that a minimum of forty
additional full-time jobs will result from this project.
5. Finding regarding the method of tax increment computation set
forth in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, Subd. 3, Clause
(b), if applicable.
The Council does not elect the method of tax increment
computation set forth in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177,
Subd. 3, Clause (b).
6. Finding regarding duration of Tax Increment Financing
District No. 1-10.
The duration of Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-10 will
be eight (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax
increment or ten (10) from the approval of the Tax Increment
Financing Plan, whichever is less. Pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Section 469.177, Subd. 3, the City requests 100 percent
of the available increase in assessed value for repayment of debt
and current expenditures.
