WHEREAS, it has been proposed by the Board of Commissioners (the "Board ") of the
Monticello Housing and Redevelopment Authority (the "HRA ") and the City of Monticello (the "City ")
that the HRA adopt a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment
Project No. 1 (the "Redevelopment Plan ") and a Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment
Financing District No. 1 -31 (the "TIF Plan ") therefor (the Redevelopment Plan and the TIF Plan are
referred to collectively herein at the "Plans "), all pursuant to and in conformity with applicable law,
including Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.001 to 469.047, and Sections 469.174 to 469.179, inclusive,
as amended (the "Act "), all as reflected in the Plans and presented for the Board's consideration; and
WHEREAS, the HRA has investigated the facts relating to the Plans and has caused the Plans to
be prepared; and
WHEREAS, the HRA has performed all actions required by law to be performed prior to the
adoption of the Plans. The HRA has also requested the City Planning Commission to provide for review
of and written comment on Plans and that the Council schedule a public hearing on the Plans upon
published notice as required by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board as follows:
1. The HRA hereby finds that Tax Increment Financing District No. 1 -31 is in the public
interest and is an "economic development district" under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subd. 12,
and finds that the Plans conform in all respects to the requirements of the Act and that the adoption of the
proposed Plans will help provide employment opportunities in the State and in the preservation and
enhancement of the tax base of the City and the State and thereby serves a public purpose.
2. The HRA further finds that the Plans will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with
the sound needs for the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of the project area by
private enterprise in that the intent is to provide only that public assistance necessary to make the private
developments financially feasible.
3. Conditioned upon the approval thereof by the City Council following its public hearing
thereon, the Plans, as presented to the HRA on this date, are hereby approved, established and adopted
and shall be placed on file in the office of the City Clerk.
4. Upon approval of the Plans by the City Council, the staff, the HRH's advisors and legal
counsel are authorized and directed to proceed with the implementation of the Plans and for this purpose
to negotiate, draft, prepare and present to this Board for its consideration all further plans, resolutions,
documents and contracts necessary for this purpose. Approval of the Plans does not constitute approval
of any project or a Development Agreement with any developer.
5. Upon approval of the Plans by the City Council, the City Clerk is authorized and directed
to forward a copy of the Plans to the Minnesota Department of Revenue pursuant to Minnesota Statutes
469.175, Subd. 4a.
6. The City Clerk is authorized and directed to forward a copy of the Plans to the Wright
County Auditor and request that the Auditor certify the original tax capacity of the District as described in
the Plans, all in accordance with Minnesota Statutes 469.177.
Approved by the Board of Commissioners of the Monticello Housing and Redevelopment
