Consideration to review and approve a Transformation Home Loan application for 511 Elm Street. Koropchak reported that the HRA is asked to consider approving a Transformation Home Loan for a single-family residence at 511 Elm Street. The existing house is only about 600-700 square feet, with a detached garage. She noted that as referenced in the staff report, the applicant is requesting the loan to . triple the square footage of the structure. O'Neill had confirmed for Koropchak that this property is not included in the proposed Ruff redevelopment area. The Commissioners noted that the loan was intended for this purpose. Koropchak reported that Anderson had done a preliminary inspection. The total value ofthe improvements is $160,000 and the applicant does have financing. The bank had noted to Koropchak that the applicant was going to have work equity into the improvements. Frie inquired what the maximum loan amount is. Koropchak explained that the maximum amount is 25%, with cap of $20,000. MOTION BY COMMISSIONER ANDREWS TO APPROVE TRANSFORMATION LOAN NO. 002 FOR 511 ELM STREET, ANTOINETTE BREIWICK IN THE AMOUNT OF 25% OF THE VERIFIED SWORN CONSTRUCTION STATEMENT OR NOT GREATER THAN $20,000, SUBJECT TO A COMMITMENT FROM THE LENDER. MOTION SECONDED BY FAIR. MOTION CARRIED, 4-0. Koropchak stated that it was her understanding that the HRA attorney would draft agreement and closing information. . Fair suggested that an update to the brochure could be done to include these two properties as examples of the program. Barger asked if anything on the transformation program was on the website. Koropchak stated that she will check. 6. Consideration to set a workshop date for the sole pumose to discuss ideas and to target properties or areas for purchase as properties corne on the market. Koropchak stated that Fair had requested that this be put on the agenda, along with Wolfsteller's year-end report on the district fund balances. Koropchak stated that the HRA needs to verify Wolfsteller's report against Ehler's projections, which includes debt service over the years. Fair asked if we have a deadline in relationship to the funds on the districts. Koropchak confirmed that there is a deadline, but stated that the HRA had already completed a modification for one district, and would be doing districts 2 and 24 in the corning months. She reminded the Commissioners that they are modifying the budgets, enlarging them, so that excess tax increment does not have to go back to the County. Those were the three districts recommended for modification by Ehlers. Fair stated that he thought there should be a discussion on the whole topic, to look at all the districts and look at properties that would be cornerstones for downtown redevelopment. . Koropchak noted that the HRA does not typically hold a regular July meeting. . The Commissioners agreed to hold a workshop in June, after the regular HRA meeting. Fair requested some digital images, zoning maps, fund balance information and information on when funds would be available. Mayer asked what areas the HRA would be talking about. Koropchak stated that is what will be defined. Fair stated that having a plan will allow staff to start the process. Mayer asked if Loch would be selling his business. Frie stated that he had found a tenant, but wanted to retain ownership. 7. Consideration to appoint an HRA Commissioner to the Comprehensive Plan Update Task Force. Koropchak explained that the Council had requested that the HRA provide one representative to the comp plan task force. She reported that the update process is expected to go about 14 months. . Fair stated that he wanted to express concern related to the discussions regarding the comprehensive plan updates. Fair reminded the group that with three Council members present at task force meetings, it will be a public meeting and subject to the open meeting law. Mayer stated that they will post a notice for each meeting. Fair expressed some concern that 3 council members would be present for the discussion and wondered how that would impact the Council as a whole. Fair stated that he would hope that all would attend. Mayer stated that was a valid question, but by having three attend, it was thought that they would be throwing the responsibility back to the Council. Andrews stated that having three present may fosters ownership in the process. Fair also asked why three township representatives are on the task force. He noted that it is supposed to be the City's comprehensive plan. Mayer stated that he agrees and noted that at meetings he has attended the township representatives have been. Fair stated his concern about influence of township on the task force. MOTION BY FAIR TO APPOINT COMMISSIONER FRIE TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE TASK FORCE, WITH COMMISSIONER ANDREWS AS ALTERNATE. MOTION CARRIED, 4-0. 8. Consideration to authorize payment of HRA bills. MOTION BY COMMISSIONER ANDREWS TO AUTHORIZE PAYMENT OF BILLS. MOTION SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER FAIR. MOTION CARRIED, 4- O. . 9. Consideration of Executive Director's Report . Koropchak reported that she had not yet received final elevations for Karlsburger and that the City had authorized extension of sewer and water trunk lines across the property. She also noted that the attached final TlF loan reports for Aroplax and Suburban and would like to close those out. 10. Committee Renorts a. Marketing 1) Barger inquired of the other Commissioners their reaction to A VR's impact on the City's goal ofa high-end industrial park. Barger stated that he was questioning the intent for the park, as Koropchak has received a number of inquiries for distribution centers who would purchase the property at fair- market value. Barger stated that his perspective is that chances are if a cement plant goes there, the City will not get high-end industrial development. In that case, perhaps the HRA should sell it as quickly as possible and then target another area to do a high end industrial park. He indicated that if industry wants to locate there and they aren't going to get TlF assistance, he doesn't have a problem with that. . Mayer stated that you have to define the type of distribution company. Koropchak stated that she had gotten direction on Dahlheimer's site as they are a local business and paid well, so the HRA did do TIF assistance. Koropchak noted that the covenants in place do not allow outdoor storage, but do allow trucks or trailers in everyday operation. They have to be in the rear yard. Koropchak noted that the covenants and criteria are different things. For market rate, a business just has to meet the covenants and zoning. Mayer stated that he doesn't know what type of industry doesn't store trailers. Barger stated that his point is that with an A VR relocation, the HRA may need to change focus. Koropchak noted that there is a consistency problem with A VR and other potential users. Barger stated if a business wants assistance, then they still need to follow the criteria. Mayer stated that he wouldn't come to a decision too early, holding out hope that A VR doesn't locate there. He stated that the more growth, the better, especially if businesses are willing to pay at market rate. Koropchak stated that currently the market is about $3.00 per square foot. Koropchak stated that initially, the City only purchased 35 acres. Koropchak stated that she would like Council to authorize buying the balance of the property, which would include the A VR site. Wolfsteller stated that he thought it might be best to pay offthe contract for deed. . 2) Koropchak stated that Marketing Committee currently has about $4000 in the budget left from the $30,000 initial amount. She reported that the Committee would like to move forward on the 2006 marketing plan, which . includes billboards. She stated that the problem is that the 2006 budget request is $16,500 and the Council budget is for 2007. Koropchak asked if the Council doesn't approve the budget, would the HRA be a backup for funding. Wolfsteller asked what we would be doing in 2007. Barger stated that the Committee had cut out sponsoring golf outing and classified ads. Barger stated that the billboard and internet are probably the keys. Koropchak noted that the business park's entrance sign should be up in a couple of weeks. Barger noted that the marketing efforts drive people to the park, but they need some kind of identification once they are there. MOTION BY COMMISSIONER ANDREWS TO AUTHORIZE THE HRA TO PROVIDE FUNDING IN THE AMOUNT OF $16,500 FOR MONTICELLO BUSINESS PARK MARKETING EFFORTS, AS A BACKUP TO COUNCIL FUNDING. MOTION SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER FRIE. MOTION CARRIED, 4-0. b. Fiber Optics . Koropchak reported that the Fiber Optics task force has their first meeting with the consultant on Wednesday. Andrews stated that he will be there. Fair asked what would be happening. Mayer stated that the task force will review the contract for feasibility to make sure there is an understanding of all of the aspects. They will also be gathering information and perhaps sign the contract. Barger asked when the feasibility study would be back. Mayer stated that it is expected in August. Barger asked what the intended reach is. Mayer stated it would be City- wide. The depth, reach, and even validity will be determined by the study. Barger asked about financing. Mayer stated that Springsted will be looking at that. II. Adiourn MOTION BY COMMISSIONER ANDREWS TO ADJOURN. MOTION SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER FRIE. MOTION CARRIED, 4-0. . . HRA Agenda - 06/07/06 4A. Consideration to approve amendinl! the Contract for Private Development between the BRA and Master's Fifth Avenue. Inc. A. Reference and backl!round: TIF Plan for establishment of District No. 1-35 was approved by Council on September 12, 2005. Ehler's submitted the Request for District Certification to the Wright County Auditor on December 29,2005. At this time no verification as to the certification date has been received from the County. The County has until July 1, 2006. Per Statutes: The duration of District No. 1-35 will be 25 years from the date of receipt ofthe first increment. The date of receipt of the first tax increment will be approximately 2008. Thus, it is estimated that the District, including any modifications to the TIF Plan for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after 2033, or when the TIF Plan is satisfied. After four years from the date of certification of the District one of the following activities must have been commenced on each parcel in the District: demolition, rehabilitation, renovation, or other site preparation. (September 2009) . Within five years of certification revenues derived from tax increments must be expended or obligated to be expended. (September 2010) The HRA and Master's Fifth A venue, Inc. entered into the Contract for Private Development on September 7, 2005. The developer is requesting the Commencement and Completion of Construction be amended as follows: Subject to Unavoidable Delays, the Developer shall commence construction of the Minimum Improvements by October 1, 2005, amend to 'f\r\,,'1;'\ ,,?-o~cl,ject to Unavoidable Delays, the Developer shall complete the construction ofthel) Minimum Improvements by December 31, 2006, amend to 'Qu. ~ \, ?;' All work with respect to the Minimum Improvements to be constructed or provided by the Developer on the Development Property shall be in conformity with the Construction Plans as submitted by the Developer and approved by the Authority. Definition of Minimum Improvements: The construction on the Development Property of an approximately 11,000 sq ft retail center, with associated parking, known as Landmark Square II, and associated parking on an adjacent parcel ("Adjacent Property"). . Lastly, the Executive Director is requesting direction for the commissioners relative to payment of Administrative Costs. The Developer initially deposited $7,500 with the 1 . HRA Agenda - 06/07/06 Authority to be applied toward Administration Costs. Excess or over-run costs are determined no earlier than the date of which the Developer receives a Certificate of Completion. Given the unusual time between the Preliminary Agreement execution and deposit of September 14, 2004; the District Inspection and report completed September 2005; the district established (Ehler's); contract prepared (Kennedy & Graven) and executed (September 7, 2005); and the proposed extended construction completion date (thereafter the Certificate of Completion is issued); would the HRA prefer to invoice the developer for cost over-runs prior to issuance of the certificate of completion as per the Contract? The HRA has reimbursed the developer $20,000 for costs associated with removal ofthe Koppy garage and improvements located within Landmark Square I per the Contract. PLEASE GNE DIRECTION. B. Alternative Action: 1. A motion to approve amending the Contract for Private Development by and among Master's Fifth Avenue, Inc. and the HRA as follows: The Developer shall commence construction ofthe Minimum Improvements by Subject to Unavailable delays, the Developer shall complete the construction of Minimum Improvements by . 2. A motion to deny amending the Contract for Private Development by and among Master's Fifth Avenue, Inc. and the HRA. 3. A motion to table any action. C. Recommendation: The Administrator and Executive Director recommend alternate no. 1 because the district will be certified no later than July 1, 2006, the four and five-year rules are not affected; and the extended time allows the developer to secure tenants. The Execute Director recommends that the HRA research invoice documentation for administration costs at this time as accountability after certificate of completion will be more difficult to track. D.

HRA Agenda - 06/07/06 5. Consideration to aDDrove a resolution adoDtin!!: the modifications to the TIF Plans for TIF District Nos. 1-2 ffiedeveloDment District) and 1-24 (Qualified Housin!!: District). A. Reference and back!!:round: TIF District No. 1-2, MetcalflLarson, a Redevelopment District, was certified in 1983 and the TIF Plan was modified five times previously to either enlarge the district boundaries and increase the budget. TIF assistance was used for building and land acquisition, demolition, relocation, site preparation and public improvements associated with the construction of an office building, Broadway Square Apartments, and post office egress. The proposed No. 1-2 modification is to increase the budget only and does not include enlarging the district boundaries. The budget revenues and expenditures will be increased from $1,323,421 to $1,705,134. Based on the projected cashflow using the current obligation and projecting tax increment to the district's statutory limits which is year 2010, the projected amount of uncommitted revenues available for use is approximately $175,000. Because this is a pre-1990 district, the tax increment is available for budgeted expenditures in the district or within the project area. TIF District No. 1-24, St. Ben's, a Qualified Housing District, was certified in 1998. TIF assistance was used for site improvements and land acquisition associated with the construction ofthe independent senior rental housing facility called St. Benedicts. A certain percentage of the rental units are subject to rental rate and income requirements established through the National Housing Act. St. Benedict's annually submits a rental and income report to the HRA Director. The proposed No. 1-24 modification is to increase the budget only and does not include enlarging the district boundaries. The budget revenues and expenditures will be increased from $1,340,000 to $1,940,000. Based on the projected cashflow using the current obligation and projecting tax increment to the district's statutory limits which is year 2026, the project amount of uncommitted revenues available for use is approximately $600,000. The tax increment is available for use within the project area, but must be used for affordable housing. The BRA requested modifying the Plans for TIF District Nos. 1-2 and 1-24 because: Due to a recent change in the Minnesota Statutes, the HRA must annually determine the amount of excess increment for a district based on its Plan in effect December 30 of the year and the increment and revenues received of that year. The HRA must spend or return the excess increment under the Statute within nine months after the end of the year. In addition, the HRA may, subject to the limitations set forth herein, 1 . BRA Agenda - 06/07/06 choose to modify the Plan in order to fmance additional public costs in the Development District (project area) or TIF District. The modification to the Plans (budgets) for District Nos. 1-2 and 1-24 will maximize the use of tax increment for future redevelopment and housing projects within the Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I boundaries. Any formal modification to a TIF Plan follows the same process as establishment of a new district. The modification reserves the HRA' s right to incur bonded indebtedness, the modification does not obligate the HRA to incur debt, future action is necessary to incur debt (such as approval of a Contract for Private Development.) The Planning Commission adopted their resolution on June 6, 2006, and the City Council will hold a public hearing and consider approving the modifications on June 12, 2006. The county and school district received a copy of the proposed modifications on May 10, 2006, satisfying the 30-day notification period for comments. B. Alternative Action: . 1. Motion to approve a resolution adopting the modifications to the TlF Plans for TIF District Nos. 1-2 (Redevelopment District) and 1-24 (Qualified Housing District). 2. A motion to deny approval ofa resolution adopting .............................................. 3. A motion to table any action. C. Recommendation: The City Administrator and HRA Executive Director recommend Alternative No.1. The modification of the TlF Plans preserve the tax increment for future redevelopment and affordable housing projects within the Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1 boundaries. D.

TAX INCREMENT REDEVELOPMENT FINANCE PLAN A.

To facilitate the development or redevelopment or property in and around District No. 1-2, this Plan authorizes the use of tax incremeut financing to pay for the cost of certain eligible expenses. The estimate of public costs and uses of funds associated with District No. 1-2 is outlined in the following table.

Pursuant to MN Statute 469.175 Sub 1 (5), it is estimated that the cost of improvemeuts, includiug administrative expenses which will be paid or financed with tax increments, will equal $1,243,134. It is estimated that the cost of improvements, including financing which will be paid for with tax increment will equal $1,705,134 as is presented in the budget on the previous page. Estimated costs associated with the District are subject to change among categories by modification to the Plan through City Conncil and HRA resolution. The cost of all activities to be considered for tax increment financing will not exceed, without formal modification, the bndget above pursuant to applicable statutory requirements. The City or HRA reserves the right to use other sources of revenue legally applicable to the City or HRA and to the Plan, including, but not limited to, special assessments, general property taxes, state aid for road maintenance and construction, proceeds from the sale of land, other contributions from developer and investment income, to pay for the estimated public costs. . The City or HRA reserves the right to incur bonded indebtedness or other indebtedness as a result of the Plan. As presently proposed, the projects will be financed through bonded debt. Additional indebtedness may be reqnired to finance other authorized activities. The total principal amount of bonded indebtedness or other indebtedness related to the use of tax increment financing will not exceed $260,000 without a modification to the Plan pursuant to applicable statutes. This provision does not obligate the City or HRA to incur debt. The City or HRA will issue bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that such action is in the best interest of the City or HRA. The City or HRA may also finance the activities to be undertaken pursuant to the Plan . . through loans from funds of the City or HRA or to reimburse the developer on a "pay-as-you-go" basis for eligible costs paid for by a developer. I. ESTlMA TE OF INDEBTEDNESS (As Originally Adopted) The HRA, by action taken at a special meeting held on September 13, 1983, authorized a private placement of tax exempt securities in the amount of $32,000.00. The BRA intends to retire this debt over a period of 12 years. The interest rate on this issue is estimated to be 9.5%. (As Modified August 24, 1987) An estimate of the maximum amount of bonded indebtedness is expected to be $90,000.00. The estimated annual tax increment generated from the elderly home ($17,300.00) will be applied to the contract for deed payments (estimated average annual debt service is $14,000.00). Upon full payment of the contract for deed, the tax increment from the elderly home will replenish the BRA General Fund for expenses incurred. Debt retirement to be completed before the duration of Redevelopment District #2. Bonded indebtedness of $90,000 is an addition to the original budget. (As Modified September 26, 1988 An estimate of the maximum amount of bonded indebtedness is expected to be $260,000, estimated annual debt service of $30,193.80. The maximum term of the issue is 18 years, and the interest rate is expected to be 9.25 percent. The capitalized interest amount for approximately 24 months is estimated to be $48,100. The difference between the project cost ($363,000), the bond indebtedness ($260,000), and the Farmers Home Administration Funding ($58,000) is $45,000. Bond sale Spring of 1989. J. SOURCE OF REVENUE (As Originally Adopted) The primary source of revenue to be used to retire the bond issue will be tax increments generated as a result ofthe development. The other source of income will be the proceeds for the conveyance of the land from the HRA t 0 the developers. In any given year that the tax increment is not sufficient to retire the debt, the developers will issue directly to the HRA an amount equal to the shortfall. (As Modified August 24, 1987) The primary source ofrevenue to be used to retire the bond indebtedness (contract for deed) will be tax increments generated from the River Park View Elderly Project, a development completed in 1986 within Tax Increment District #2. The other initial source of revenue will be from BRA General Funds. (As Modified September 26,1988) . The three sources of revenue used to finance public costs associated with the public development projects in the redevelopment project are $58,000 Farmers Home Administration Funding, $45,000 Monticello Housing and Redevelopment Authority 1989 Tax Levy, and the tax increment generated as a result of the taxation of the land and building expansion in the tax increment financing redevelopment district. Tax 11 ~ . . . increment financing refers to a funding technique that utilizes increases in assessed valuation and the property taxes attributed to new development to finance, or assist in the financing of public development costs. The improvements to the land acquired by the Broadway Square Limited Partnership and the previous improvements of Redevelopment District #2 are expected to generate an average annual tax increment of $36,084.81 payable in year 199\. The estimated annual tax increment is sufficient to retire the annual bond debt service of $30,193.80 plus Metcalf and Larson Securities annual debt service of $4,285.00.

Each year the County Auditor shall also add to the original assessed value of the Redevelopment District an amount equal to the original assessed value for the preceding year multiplied by the average increase in the assessed valuation of all property included in the redevelopment District during the five years prior to district certification . In any year in which there is an increase in total assessed valuation in the tax increment Redevelopment District above the annual percentage increase, a tax increment will be payable. In any year in which the total assessed valuation in the tax increment Redevelopment District is less than the original assessed value, no assessed valuation will be captured and no tax increment will be payable. The County Auditor shall certify in each year after the date the original assessed value was certified, the amount the OA V has increased or decreased as a result of any of the following: 13 - . . . I) Change in tax exempt status of property; 2) Alteration of the geographic boundaries of the district; 3) Change due to stipulations, adjustments, negotiated or court ordered abatements. L. ESTlMA TED CAPTURED ASSESSED VALUE (As Originally Adopted) Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 273.74, Subdivision I and 273.76, Subdivision 2, the estimated Captured Assessed Value (CA V) of the tax increment Redevelopment District will be $50,480.00. Changes in assessed values are shown in Exhibit A. The City of Monticello requests 100% of the available increase in assessed value commencing in 1984 for taxes payable in 1985 be captured for repayment of debt and current expenditures. (As Modified September 26, 1988) Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 469.175, Subdivision I, and 469.177, Subdivision 2, the estimated Captured Assessed Value (CA V) of the tax increment Redevelopment District will be $369,138.00. Changes in assessed values are shown in Exhibit A. The City of Monticello requests 100% of the available increase in assessed value commencing in 1990 for taxes payable in 1991 be captured for repayment of debt and current expenditures. M. DURA TlON OF THE DISTRICT (As Originally Adopted) The City of Monticello expects to terminate the Monticello Tax Increment Redevelopment District #2 on January 2, 2010. The 25 year duration of the district is based on the ability of the City to collect tax increments for 25 years commencing in 1985 and ending in 2010. (As Modified June 13, 2006) Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, Snbdivision 1, and Section 469.176 Subdivision 1, the duration of Tax Increment Financing District 1-2 must be indicated within the Plan. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 469.176 Subdivision 1 (b), the duration of Tax Increment Financing District #1-2 will be 25 years from the date of receipt of the first increment by the city. The date of receipt by the City of Monticello of the first tax increment was July, 1985. Thus it is estimated that the Tax Increment Financing District, including any modifications of the Plan for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after 2010, or when the Plan is satisfied. The City reserves the right to decertify the District prior to the legally required date. N. IMPACT ON OTHER TAXING JURISDICTIONS (As Originally Adopted) It is anticipated that $4,269 in tax increment will be captured annually as a result of the proposed improvement during the first 12 years of the District's 25 years. 14 - . . For taxes payable in 1983, the City of Monticello comprised 24.8% of the mill rate (21.0), School District #882 comprised 42.8% of the mill rate (36.2), and Wright County comprised 28.3% of the mill levy (23.9). The Monticello-Big Lake Hospital District made up the final 4.1% with a mill rate of (3.4). A mill rate of 84.5 mills has been used throughout the debt retirement schedule used in this tax increment financing plan. Applying the appropriate percentage of the total mill rate levied by each taxing jurisdiction to the projected mill rate and the annual tax increment of $4,269 reveals the annual forfeit of tax dollars by each taxing jurisdiction. The amount of tax dollars foregone by each taxing jurisdiction is listed on the table below: TABLE I Percent of tax increment attributable to taxing jurisdictions Tax Jurisdiction Estimated Mills Percent Annual Tax Inc. City of Monticello 21.0 24.8 1,059 School District #882 36.2 42.8 1,827 Wright County 23.9 28.3 1,208 Hospital District 3.4 4.1 175 84.5 100.0 4,269 The following table represents the additional mills that would have to be levied by each taxing jurisdiction to compensate for the tax dollars captured as tax increments. The tax increments derived from the project alluded to in the tax increment economic development district would not be available to any of the taxing jurisdictions were it not for the public intervention by the City of Monticello. Although the increases in assessed value due to the economic development plan will not be available to the other jurisdictions for the application of their mil1 levy for the duration of the tax increment financing district this new assessed value will eventually be applied to all jurisdictions assessed valuation and could conceivably permit a mill levy decrease. If it is assumed that the captured assessed value would be available for each taxing jurisdiction the amount of tax dollars, represented as tax increments, which would not be received by the other jurisdictions can be computed. This computation is facilitated by estimating how much the mill levy for property outside of the tax increment financing district would have to be increased to raise the same amount of tax dollars in each jurisdiction had the project occurred without the assistance of the City of Monticello. TABLE II Impact on taxing jurisdictions if development occurred without public assistance Payable 83 Assessed Value Required Mills Annual Tax Tax Jurisdiction Increment City of Monticello 58,492,537 .0177 1,059 School District #882 79,049,159 .0226 1,827 Wright County 340,696,792 .0347 1,208 Hospital District 92,564,703 .00185 175 4,269 . All assessed values exclude the amount of assessed valuation already found in tax increment financing districts in other municipalities in Wright County. 15 ~ . . . (As Modified September 26,1988) The impact of the loss of tax dollars represented as tax increments is estimated below for each taxing jurisdiction. This estimate is based on the existing redevelopment proposals and does not include the possible tax increments derived from other future developments, mill changes, or inflation factors. Tax Increment Finance District 1/2/88 Total Total Assessed Value $87,022 LATEST ASSESSED VALUE OF EACH GOVERNMENT BODY: % of District to Total Wright County Scho01rhstrict#882 City of Monticello Other $407,743,709 $140,784,433 $114,339,670 $190,334,664 .021 .061 .076 .045 Considering all the districts, it can be seen from the above that the school, city, and county districts will have over 99% of each respective district available for normal growth of tax base or valuation. Applying the percentage of the total mill rate in 1988 levied by each taxing jurisdiction to the projected mill rate and the estimated tax increment received reveals the annual loss of tax dollars by each taxing jurisdiction as listed in the table below assuming development would occur without public assistance. The modified finance plan indicates we anticipate a tax increment at build out as follows: Captured Assessed Valuation Estimated Tax Increment Received $36,084 Tax Increment Finance District $369,138 Based on the current mill rate, the estimated taxes received would be as follows for the taxing bodies: Mills Percent Tax Increment City 15.932 16.28 5,874 Wright County 22.728 23.22 8,379 School District #882 55.069 56.26 20,301 Hospital District 4.147 4.24 1,530 Total 97.876 100.00 36,084 The following table represents the additional mills that would have to be levied to compensate for the loss of tax dollars in estimated tax increments for each taxing jurisdiction. The tax increments derived from the total Redevelopment District #2 improvements alluded to in the tax increment district would not be available to any of the taxing jurisdictions were it not for public intervention by the City. Although the increases in assessed value due to development will not be available for the application of the mill levy for the duration of the tax increment fmancing district, this new assessed value could eventually permit a mill levy decrease. If it could be assumed that the captured assessed value was available for each taxing jurisdiction, the non-receipt of tax dollars represented as tax increments may be determined. This determination is facilitated by estimating how much the mill levy for property outside of the tax increment financing district would have to be increased to raise the same amount of tax dollars in each taxing jurisdiction that would be available if the projects occurred without the assistance of the City. 16 . . .

Since no new land is being added to District No. 1-2 and there is no additional development expected at this time which will resnlt in additional captured tax capacity, the City and HRA do not believe this modification will have any fiscal impact on any other taxing jurisdictions The following table shows the comparison of captured tax capacity from the original plan estimate as stated above to the captured tax capacity for taxes payable 2006.

MODtFtCA TtON TO TAX INCREMENT PLAN (As Originally Adopted) In accordance with Section 273.74, Subdivision 4 of the Tax Increment Financing Act, the geographic area of the project or tax increment financing district, increase in the amount of bonded indebtedness to be incurred, including a determination to capitalize interest on debt if that determination was not part of the original plan, or to increase or decrease the amount of interest on the debt to be capitalized, increase in the portion of the captured assessed value to be retained by the City, increase in total estimated tax increment expenditures or designation of additional property to be acquired by the authority shall be approved upon the notice and after the discussion, public hearing and findings required for approval upon the notice and after the discussion, public hearing and findings required for approval of the original plan. The geographic area of the Monticello Tax Increment Financing District #2 may be reduced, but shall not be enlarged after five years following the date of certification of original assessed value by the office of the County Auditor. The Monticello Tax Increment Financing District #2 may therefore be expanded until 1988. 17 . . P. LIMITATION ON ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES (As Originally Adopted) In accordance with M.S. 273.73, Subd. 13 and 273.75, Subd. 3, the administrative expenses means all expenditures of an authority other than amounts paid for the purchase of land or amounts paid to contractors or others providing materials and services, including architectural and engineering services, directly connected with the physical development of the real property in the district, relocation benefits paid to or services provided for persons residing or businesses located in the district or amounts used to pay interest on, fund a reserve for, or sell at a discount bonds issued pursuant to M.S. 237.77. Administrative expenses include amounts paid for services provided by bond council, fiscal consultants and planning, economic, or legal consultants. No tax increment shall be used to pay any administrative expenses for a project which exceeds 10% of the total tax increment expenditures authorized by the tax increment financing plan or the total tax increment expenditures for the project, whichever is less. Q. LIMITATION ON DURA nON OF TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICTS (As Originally Adopted) . Pursuant to M.S. 273.75, Subd. I, "No tax increment shall be paid to an authority three years from the date of certification by the County Auditor unless within the three year period (l)bonds have been issued pursuant to Section 273.77 or in aid of a project pursuant to any other law, except revenue bonds issued pursuant to Chapter 474, prior to the effective date of the act: or (2) the authority has acquired property within the district: (3) the authority has constructed or caused to be constructed public improvements within the district ..." The City of Monticello must therefore acquire the property so stipulated in this plan by October I, 1986, or the office of the County Auditor may dissolve the tax increment district. R. LIMITATION ON QUALlFICA TION OF PROPERTY IN TAX INCREMENT DISTRICT NOT SUBJECT TO IMPROVEMENT (As Originally Adopted) Subd. 6. Limitation on increment. . If, after four years from the date of certification of the original assessed value of the tax increment financing district pursuant to Section 273.76, no demolition, rehabilitation or renovation of property or other site preparation, including improvement of a street adjacent to a parcel but not installation of utility service including sewer or water systems, has been commenced on a parcel located within a tax increment financing district by the authority or by the owner of the parcel in accordance with the tax increment financing plan, no additional tax increment may be taken from that parcel, and the original assessed value of that parcel shall be excluded from the original assessed value of the tax increment financing district. If the authority of the owner of the parcel subsequently commences demolition, rehabilitation or renovation or other site preparation on that parcel including improvement of a street adjacent to that parcel, in accordance with the tax increment financing plan, the authority shall certify to the county auditor that the activity has commenced, and the county auditor shall certify the assessed value thereof as most recently certified by the commissioner of revenue and add it to the original assessed value of the tax increment financing district. For purposes of this subdivision "parcel" means a tract or plat of land established prior to the certification of the district as a single unit for purposes of assessment. 18 . . . S. LIMIT A T/ON ON THE USE OF TAX INCREMENT (As Originally Adopted) All revenue derived from tax increment shall be used in accordance with the tax increment financing plan. The revenue shall be used to finance or otherwise pay the capital and administrative cost of a development district pursuant to tI.S. 472A. These revenues shall not be used to circumvent existing levy limit law. No revenue derived from tax increment shall be used for the construction or renovation of a municipally owned building used primarily and regularly for conducting. the business of the municipality; this provision shall not prohibit the use of revenue derived from tax increments for the construction or renovation of a parking structure, a commons area used as a public park or a facility used for social, recreational, or conference purposes and not primarily for conducting the business of the municipality. T. NOT/FICA TION OF PRIOR PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS (As Originally Adopted) Pursuant to M.S. 273.76, Subd. 4, the City has reviewed and searched the property to be included in the tax increment economic development district and found that no building permit has been issued during the 18 months immediately preceding approval of the tax increment financing plan by the County. If the building permit had been issued within the 18 month period preceding approval of the tax increment financing plan by the City, the County Auditor shall increase the original assessed value of the district by the assessed valuation of the improvements for which the building permit was issued, excluding the assessed valuation of improvements for which a building permit was issued during the 3 month period immediately preceding said approval ofthe tax increment financing plan, as certified by the assessor. U. EXCESS TAX INCREMENTS (As Originally Adopted) Pursuant to M.S. 273.75, Subd. 2 of the Tax Increment Financing Act, in any year in which the tax increment exceeds the amount necessary to pay the costs authorized by the tax increment plan, including the amount necessary to cancel any tax levy as provided in M.S. 475.61, Subd. 3, the City shall use the excess amount in order selected by the Authority to: 1. Prepay outstanding Bonds; 2. Discharge the pledge of tax increment, Jherefore; 3. Pay into an escrow accouot dedicated to the payment of such Bond; 4. Repay any loans including interest on these loans; or 5. Return the excess amouot to the Couoty for pro rata distribution to the affected taxing jurisdictions. (As Modified June 13,2006) Excess iucrements, as defined in M.S., Section 469.176, Subd. 2, shall be used only to do one or more of the following: 1. Prepay any outstanding bonds; 2. Discharge the pledge of tax increment for any outstanding bonds; 3. Pay into an escrow account dedicated to the payment of any outstanding bonds; or 19 . 4. Return the excess to the County Anditor for redistribution to the respective taxing jurisdictions in proportion to their local tax rates. The City or HRA must spend or retnrn the excess increments under paragraph (c) within nine months after the end of the year. In addition, the City may, snbject to the limitations set forth herein, choose to modify the Plan in order to finance additional pnblic costs in the District V. REQUIREMENT FOR AGREEMENTS WITH THE DEVELOPER (As Originally Adopted) Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.75, Subdivision 5, no more than twenty-five percent (25%) by acreage of the property (25%) to be acquired by the authority in the redevelopment district shall be oMled by the Authority as a result of acquisition with the proceeds of bonds issued pursuant to Section 273.77 without the Authority having prior to acquisition in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of the acreage, concluded an agreement for the development of the property acquired and which provides recourse for the Authority. (As Originally Adopted) W. ASSESSMENT AGREEMENTS . Pursuant to M.S. 273.76, Subd. 8, the City may, upon entering into a development agreement, enter into an agreement in recordable form with the developer of property within the tax increment financing district which establishes a minimum market value of the land and completed improvements for the duration of the tax increment Redevelopment District. The assessment agreement shall be presented to the County Assessor who shall review the plans and specifications for the improvements constructed, review the market value previously assigned to the land upon which the improvements are to be constructed, and so long as the minimum market value contained in the assessment agreement appears in the judgment of the assessor to be a reasonable estimate, the assessor may certify the minimum market value agreement. X. ADMIINISTRA nON AND MAINTENANCE OF THE TAX INCREMENT ACCOUNT (As Originally Adopted) Administration of the tax increment financing economic development district will be handled by the City of Monticello Housing and Redevelopment Authority and the office of the City Administrator. The tax increment received as a result of increases in the assessed value of the tax increment economic development district will be maintained in a special account separate from all other municipal accounts and expended only upon sanctioned municipal activities identified in the finance plan as amended. Y. ANNUAL DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS . (As Originally Adopted) Pursuant to M.S. 273.74, Subd. 5, an authority must file an annual disclosure report for all tax increment financing districts. The report shall be filed with the school board, county board, and the Minnesota Department of Energy, Planning and Development. The report shall include the following information: 20 21 . 1. The amount and source of revenue in the account; 2. The amount and purposes of expenditures from the account; 3. The amount of any pledge of revenues, including principal and interest on any outstanding indebtedness; 4. The original assessed value of the districts; 5. The captured assessed value retained by the authority; 6. The captured assessed value shared with other taxing districts; 7. The tax increment received. The annual disclosure report is designed to be a two-way medium of information dissemination for both the office of the County Auditor and the City Council. Should the auditor request additional information from the City regarding the tax increment financing activities, such information should be requested prior to submission of the annual disclosure report by the City. Similarly, the City Council may utilize the annual disclosure report as a means for requesting information from the office of the County Auditor. Additionally, the authority must annually publish a statement in a newspaper of general circulation in the municipality showing the tax increment received and expended in that year, the original assessed value, the captured assessed value, amount of outstanding indebtedness, and any additional information the authority may deem necessary. (As Modified June 13, 2006) . Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 5, 6, and 6b the HRA must undertake financial reporting for all tax increment financing districts to the Office of the State Auditor, County Board, County Auditor and School Board on or before August 1 of each year. M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 5 also provides that an annual statement shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City on or before Augnst 15. If the City fails to make a disclosure or submit a report containing the information reqnired by M.S., Section 469.175 Subd. 5 and Subd. 6, the OSA will direct the County Auditor to withhold the distribution oftax increment from the District. Z. ASSUMPTIONS (As Originally Adopted) It was necessary in the preparation of this plan to make certain assumptions regarding income, costs, and timing of the economic development district.

Monticello HRA Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1 I-I . SECT/ON 11- TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN FOR TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT NO. 1-24 Subsection 2-1. Foreword The City of Monticello ("City"), the Monticello Housing and Redevelopment Authority (the "HRA"), staff and consultants have prepared the following information to expedite the establishment of Tax Increment Financing DistrictNo. 1-24 ("District No. 1-24"), a qualified housing tax increment financing district, located in Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I. Subsection 2-2. Statutorv Authority Within the City, there exist areas where public involvement is necessary to cause development or redevelopment to occur. To this end, the City and HRA have certain statutory powers pursuant to Minnesota Statutes ("M.S."), Sections 469.001 through 469.047, inclusive, as amended, and M.S., Sections 469.174 through 469.179, 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 Tax Increment Financing Plan (the "Plan") for District No. 1-24. Other relevant information is contained in the Modified Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I. . Subsection 2-3. Statement of Obiectives District No. 1-24 currently consists of a portion of one parcel ofland and adjacent and internal rights-of-way. District No. 1-24 is created to facilitate construction of60 unit independent living senior housing building in the City of Monticello. Concurrent with the construction of the independent living units will be the construction of60 units of assisted living units, which will not be included in District No. 1-24. Both facilities are to be owned by St. Benedict's Center. This plan is expected to achieve many of the objectives outlined in the Modified Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I. The activities contemplated in the present Modified Redevelopment Plan and the Tax Increment Financing Plan do not preclude the undertaking of other qualified development or redevelopment activities. These activities are anticipated to occur over the life of District No. 1-24 and Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1. Subsection 2-4. Redevelooment Plan Overview I. Property to be Acquired - Selected property located within District No. 1-24 may be acquired by the City or HRA and is further described in this Plan. 2. Relocation - Complete relocation services are available pursuant to M.S., Chapter 117 and other relevant state and federal laws. . 3. Upon approval ofa developer's plan relating to the project and completion of the necessary legal requirements, the City or HRA may sell to a developer selected properties that they may acquire within District No. 1-24 or may lease land or facilities to a developer. Monticello HRA Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1 2-1 . . 4. The City or HRA may perform or provide for some or all necessary acquisition, construction, relocation, demolition, and required utilities and public streets work within District No. 1-24. Subsection 2-5. Lel!al Description of Property in Tax Increment Financinl! District No. 1-24 District No. 1-24 encompasses all property and adjacent rights-of-way identified by the legal description found in appendix B. Please see the map in Appendix A for further information on the location of District No. 1-24. Subsection 2-6. Classification of Tax Increment Financinl! District No. 1-24 The City and HRA, in determining the need to create a tax increment financing district in accordance with MS., Sections 469.174 to 469.179, as amended, inclusive, find that District No. 1-24, to be established, is a qualified housing district pursuant to MS., Section 469.174, Subd. 11 and MS., Section 273.1399, Subd. 1 (c) as defined below: Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 11: . "Housing district" means a type of tax increment financing district which consists of a project, or a portion of a project, intended for occupancy, in part, by persons or families of low and moderate income, as defined in chapter 462A, Title II of the National Housing Act of 1934, the National Housing Act of 1959. the United States Housing Act of 1937. as amended, Title Vof the Housing Act of 1949, as amended. any other similar present or future federal, state, or municipal legislation, or the regulations promulgated under any of those acts. A project does not qualifY under this subdivision if the fair market value of the improvements which are constructed for commercial uses or for uses other than low and moderate income housing consists of more than 20 percent of the total fair market value of the planned improvements in the development plan or agreement. The fair market value of the improvements may be determined using the cost of construction, capitalized income, or other appropriate method of estimating market value. Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.1399, subd. l(c): "Qualified Housing District" means a housing district for a residential rental project or projects in which the only properties receiving assistance from revenues derived form tax increments from the district meet all of the requirements for a low-income housing credit under section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended through December 31, 1992, regardless of whether the project actually receives a low-income housing credit. In meeting the statutory criteria described above, the City and HRA rely on the following facts and findings: . District No. 1-24 consists of a portion of one parcel. The development will consist of 60 units of senior housing. The market value of non-assisted housing or commercial property will be less than 20% of the total fair market value ofthe planned improvements. The development in District No. 1-24 will consist entirely of housing facilities which meet all ofthe . requirements for a low -income housing credit under section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. . . . Monticello HRA Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1 2-2 - . . . Generally, the requirements of Section 42 include rent restrictions and income restrictions, adjusted for family size for at least 20% or 40% of the tenants. For 1998, the restrictions are as follows Maximum Rent by Number of Bedrooms Percentage of Units I Bedroom 2 Bedrooms 20% $570 $684 $683 $820 40% Maximum Income by Family Size Percentage of Units I Person 2 People 3 People 20% $21,300 $25,560 $24,300 $29,160 $27,350 $32,820 40% Subsection 2-7. Original Tax Capacity aud Tax Rate Pursuant to MS., Section 469.174, Subd. 7 and MS., Section 469.177, Subd. 1, the Original Net Tax Capacity (ONTC) as certified for District No. 1-24 is based on the market values placed on the property by the assessor in 1998 for taxes payable 1999. Pursuantto MS., Section 469.177, Subds. 1 and 2, the County Auditor shall certify in each year (beginning in the payment year 1999) the amount by which the original value has increased or decreased as a result of: I. change in tax exempt status of property; 2. reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of the district; 3. change due to adjustments, negotiated or court-ordered abatements; 4. change in the use of the property and classification; 5. change in state law governing class rates; or 6. change in connection with previously issued building permits. In any year in which the current Net Tax Capacity value of District No. 1-24 declines below the ONTC, no value will be captured and no tax increment will be payable to the City or HRA. The original local tax ratefor District No. 1-24 will be the local tax rate for taxes payable 1999. The Original Tax Capacity and the Original Local Tax Rate for District No. 1-24 appear in the following table. Monticello HRA Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1 2-3 . . . $2,500 (Estimate only) Original Tax Capacity Value 1.18645 (Estimate Only) Percent Retained by HRA 100% Original Local Tax Rate Subsection 2-8. Estimated Captured Net Tax Capacity Value/lucrement Pursuant to MS., Section 469.174 Subd. 4 and MS., Section 469.177, Subd. 1, 2, and 4, the estimated Captured Net Tax Capacity (CTC) of District No. 1-24, within Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1, upon completion ofthe project, will annually approximate tax increment revenues as shown in the table below. The City and HRA request 100 percent ofthe available increase in tax capacity for repayment of its obligations and current expenditures, beginning in the tax year payable 200 I. The project tax capacity listed is an estimate of values when the project is completed. Project Estimated Tax Capacity upon Completion of Project (PTC) Original Estimated Net Tax Capacity (ONTC) Estimated Captured Tax Capacity (CTe) Estimated Annual Tax Increment 47,500 2,500 45,000 (CTC x Local Tax Rate) $53,390 Subsection 2-9. Property To Be Acquired The City or HRA may acquire any parcel within DistrictNo. 1-24 including interior and adjacent street rights of way. As Modified June 13.2006 The City or HRA may acquire any parcel within the District, including interior and adjacent street rights of way. Properties will be acquired by the City or HRA in order to accomplish one or more of the following: storm sewer improvements, provide land for needed public streets, utilities and facilities, transfer to private developers in order to accomplish the uses and objectives set forth in this TIF Plan. The City or HRA may acquire property by gift, dedication, condemnation or direct purchase from willing sellers in order to achieve the objectives in this TIF Plan. Snch acqnisitions will be undertaken only when there is assurance of funding to finance the acquisition and related costs. The City or HRA may also reimburse the developers for costs of land acquisition in lien of direct acquisition by the HRA or City. Subsection 2-10. Uses of Funds Currently under consideration for District No. 1-24 is a proposal to facilitate construction of60 unit senior housing building. The City and HRA has determined that it will be necessary to provide assistance to the Monticello HRA Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I 2-4 . . project for certain costs. The HRA has studied the feasibility of the development or redevelopment of property in and around District No. 1-24. To facilitate the establishment and development orredevelopment of District No. 1-24, this Plan authorizes the use of tax increment financing to pay for the cost of certain eligible expenses. The estimate of public costs and uses of funds associated with District No. 1-24 is outlined in the following table. Uses of Funds Total Land Acquisition Site Improvements Utilities Interest Administrative Costs (up to 10%) $140,000 220,000 170,000 676,500 133,500 TOTAL $1,340,000 Estimated costs associated with District No. 1-24 are subject to change among categories without modification of this 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 HRA may expend funds outside of District No. 1-24 boundaries for housing developments that receive or are eligible to receive low income tax credits under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. . As Modified June 13, 2006 USES OF FUNDS LandlBuilding $ 140,000 Site Improvements 220,000 Loan Interest 615,000 Administration 75,000 Other Housing Improvements 890,000 PROJECT COST TOTAL $1,940,000 The above budget is organized according to the Office of the State Auditor reporting forms. Pursuant to MN Statute 469.175 Sub 1 (5), it is estimated that the cost of improvements, including administrative expenses which will be paid or financed with tax increments, will equal $1,940,000. Subsection 2-11. Sources of RevenuefBonded Indebtedness . Land acquisition, site improvement costs, public utilities costs and other costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the annual collection of tax increments. The City or HRA reserves the right to use other sources of revenue legally applicable to the Modified Redevelopment Plan and the Plan, including, but not limited to, special assessments, general property taxes, state aid for road maintenance and Monticello HRA Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1 2-5 - . . . construction, proceeds from the sale ofland, other contributions from the developer and investment income, to pay for the estimated public costs. The City or HRA reserves the right to incur bonded indebtedness or other indebtedness as a result of the Plan. As presently proposed, the project will be financed by a pay-as-you-go note. Additional indebtedness may be required to fmance other authorized activities. The total principal amount of bonded indebtedness or other indebtedness related to the use of tax increment financing will not exceed $880,000 without a modification to the Plan pursuant to applicable statutory requirements. This provision does not obligate the City or HRA to incur debt. The City or HRA will issue bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that such action is in the best interest of the City. The City or HRA may also finance the activities to be undertaken pursuant to the Plan through loans from funds of the City or HRA. The estimated sources of funds for District No. 1-24 are contained in the table below. Sources of Funds Total Tax Increment Interest $1,335,000 5,000 TOTAL $1,340,000 As Modified June 13. 2006 SOURCES OF FUNDS Tax Increment $1,900,000 Interest 20,000 Down payment/reimbursements/other 20,000 TOTAL $1,940,000 Subsection 2-12. Definition of Tax Increment Revenues Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 25, tax increment revenues derived from a tax increment financing district include all of the following potential revenue sources: 1. taxes paid by the captured net tax capacity, but excluding any excess taxes, as computed under M.S., Section 469.177; the proceeds from the sale or lease of property, tangible or intangible, purchased by the authority with tax increments; repayments ofloans or other advances made by the authority with tax increments; and interest or other investment earnings on or from tax increments. 2. 3. 4. Monticello HRA Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I 2-6 . Subsection 2-13. Duration of Tax Increment Financinl! District No. 1-24 Pursuant to MS.. Section 469.175, Subd. 1, and Section 469.176, Subd. 1. the duration of District No. 1-24 must be indicated within the Plan. Pursuant to M.s., Section 469.176, Subd. 1(b), the duration of District No. 1-24 will be 25 years from the date of receipt of the first increment by the HRA. The date of receipt by the HRA of the first tax increment will be approximately 200 I. Thus, it is estimated that District No. 1-24, including any modifications ofthe Plan for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after 2025, or when the Plan is satisfied. The City or HRA does reserve the right to decertify District No. 1-24 prior to the legally required date. As Modified June 13.2006 The date of the first tax increment received by the City of Monticello was July 2001. Thus it is estimated that the Tax Increment Financing District, including any modifications of the Plan for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after 2026, or when the Plan is satisfied. The City or HRA reserves the right to decertify the District prior to the legally required date. Subsection 2-14. Estimated Impact on Other Taxinl! Jnrisdictions . The estimated impact on other taxingjurisdictions assumes construction which would have occurred without the creation of District No. 1-24. Ifthe construction is a result of tax increment financing, the impact is $0 to other entities. Notwithstanding, the factthatthe fiscal impact on the other taxing jurisdictions is $0 due to the fact that the construction would not have occurred without the assistance of the City or HRA, the following estimated impact of District No. 1-24 would be as follows if the "but for" test was not met: IMP ACT ON TAX BASE Wright County LS.D.

The total net capacity for the entities listed above are based on Pay 1998 figures. District No. 1-24 will be certified under the actual 1998/1 999 rates, which were unavailable at the time this Plan was prepared. As Modified June 13, 2006 The City or HRA does not propose to add any land to District No. 1-24 nor does it anticipate additional development at this time which will resnlt in additional tax capacity being captured within District No. 1-24. Since no new land is being added to District No. 1-24 and there is no additional development expected at this time which will result in additional captured tax capacity, the City and HRA do not believe this modification will have any fiscal impact on any other taxing jurisdictions.

The geographic area of District No. 1-24 may be reduced, but shall not be enlarged after five years following the date of certification of the original net tax capacity by the county auditor. If a qualified housing district is enlarged, the reasons and supporting facts for the determination that the addition to the district meets the criteria of MS, Section 469.179, Subd. 11 and M.S. Section 273.1399, Subd. I(c) must be documented.

Tax increment may be used to pay any authorized and documented administrative expenses for District No. 1-24 up to but notto exceed 10 percent of the total tax increment expenditures authorized by the tax increment financing plan or the total tax increment expenditures for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I, whichever is less. Pursuant to MS., Section 469.176, Subd. 4h, tax increments may be used to pay for the county's actual administrative expenses incurred in connection with District No. 1-24. The county may require payment of those expenses by February 15 of the year following the year the expenses were incurred. . Pursuant to M.S, Section 469. 177, Subd. 11, the county treasurer shall deduct an amount equal to 0.25 percent of any increment distributed to the City or HRA and the county treasurer shall pay the amount . deducted to the state treasurer for deposit in the state general fund to be appropriated to the State Auditor for the cost of financial reporting of tax increment financing information and the cost of examining and auditing authorities' use of tax increment financing.

Subsection 2-25. Municipal Approval and Public Purpose The reasons and facts supporting the findings for the adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for District No. 1-24 as required pursuant to M.S.. Section 469.175. Subd. 3 are as follows: 1. Finding that District No. 1-24 is a qualified housing district as defined in M.S.. Section 469.174, SuM II andM.S., Section 273.1399. SuM 1 (c). District No. 1-24 consists of a portion of one parcel. The development will consist of 60 units of senior rental housing. No portion of the property will be used for purposes other than low and moderate income housing. The development in District No. 1-24 will consist entirely of housing facilities which meet all ofthe rent and income limitations for a low-income housing credit under section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. 2. Finding that the proposed development. in the oplnzon of the City Council. would not reasonably be expected to occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future and. therefore. the use of tax increment financing is deemed necessary. The City has determined that, in view of reduced revenues from a housing facility intended for occupancy by low and moderate income persons, the development proposed in the Plan would not be financially feasible without substantial public assistance including tax increment financing. In making this finding, the City has relied upon the developer's pro forma submitted to the City and Authority, requirements of other state and local assistance to the development, and analysis of the need for tax increment assistance prepared by Ehlers and Associates and on file in City Hall. 3. Finding that the Tax Increment Financing Plan for District No. 1-24 conforms to the general plan for the development or redevelopment of the municipality as a whole. The Plan was reviewed by the Planning Commission on August 4, 1998. The Planning Commission found that the Plan conforms to the general development plan of the City. 4. Finding that the Tax Increment Financing Plan for District No. 1-24 will afford maximum opportunity. consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole. for the development or redevelopment of Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No.1 by private enterprise. Through the implementation of the Plan, the City or HRA will increase the tax base of the City, and will increase the availability of safe and decent life-cycle housing in the City. Additional findings are set forth in the Authorizing Resolution of the City. Monticello HRA Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I 2-15 . Subsection 2-26. Other Limitations on the Use of Tax Increment I. General Limitations. All revenue derived from tax increment shall be used in accordance with the Plan. The revenues shall be used to finance, or otherwise pay the capital and administration costs of the Central Monticello Redevelopment Project No. I pursuant to the M.S.. Sections 469.124 /0 469.134; These revenues shall not be used to circumvent existing levy limit law. No revenues derived from tax increment shall be used for the acquisition, construction, renovation, operation or maintenance of a building to be used primarily and regularly for conducting the business ofa municipality, county, school district, or any other local unit of government or the state or federal government. 2. Five Year Limitation on Commitment of Tax Increments. Tax increments derived from District No. 1-24 shall be deemed to have been expended within the TIF District only if the five year rule set forth inMS., Section 469.1763, Subd. 3, has been satisfied; and beginning with the sixth year following certification of District No. 1-24,80 percent of said tax increments that remain after expenditures permitted under said five year rule must be used only to pay previously committed expenditures or credit enhanced bonds as more fully set forth inMS., Section 469.1763, Subd. 5. Subsection 2-27. Income Requirements The housing project must satisfy the applicable income limitations and rent restrictions required in connection . with low income housing tax credits under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. Subsection 2-28, Countv Road Costs Pursuant toMS., Section 469.175. Subd. la, the county board may require the City or HRA to pay for all or part ofthe cost of county road improvements if the proposed development to be assisted by tax increment will, in the judgement ofthe county, substantially increase the use of county roads requiring construction of road improvements or other road costs and if the road improvements are not scheduled within the next five years under a capital improvement plan or other county plan. In the opinion ofthe City and HRA and consultants, the proposed development outlined in this Plan will have little or no impact upon county roads. If the county elects to use increments to improve county roads, it must notify the City or HRA within thirty days of receipt of this Plan. Subsection 2-29. Economic DevelODment and Job Creation The City or HRA is not providing tax increment financing for the purpose of economic development or job growth and therefore, the provisions of MS.. Section 116J. 991 , (which states that a business receiving state or local government assistance for economic development or job growth purposes, including tax increment financing, must create a net increase injobs and meet wage level goals in Minnesota within two years of receiving assistance) are not applicable and the City and HRA are not establishing wage and job goals in connection with District No. 1-24. .

MC1QO.01 _..-In<. ........... . . . BRA Agenda - 06/07/06 6. Consideration to a rove enterin into a Preliminar Walker Instore. Inc. A. Reference and backl!:round: The HRA is asked to enter into a Preliminary Development Agreement with Walker Instore, Inc. The company will relocate from lease space in Albertville. Sometime ago, I visited the company which designs and assembles store displays and packaging. Steve Bubul assessed and determined that the nature of the business meets the criteria for an Economic TIP District (manufacturing, warehouse or distribution). Their attorney has reviewed the Preliminary Development Agreement. Brian Walker and his wife are owners of this small company which currently employs five people and expects to employee another three people within two years. They reside in Big Lake. The company plans to construct a 10,000 sq ft facility this year. The at least 8 full-time permanent jobs create an average hourly wage of at least $17.39 per hour without benefits. PLEASE NOTE THE FEBRUARY 10,2006 PROPOSAL. The criteria allows to sell one acre at the $1.00 per square foot with the option to purchase another Y2 acre at the $2.65 per square foot plus trunk fees. COUPLE OF QUESTIONS FOR THE COMMISSIONERS? How firm are you at the minimum of a 2-acre lot size? The company has not committed to an acre site or one and one-half site. Mr. Walker is out of town for the next two weeks; therefore, will not attend the HRA meeting. We have a tentative date set in mid-June to determine site location. Mr. Walker requested the HRA consider entering into the Agreement as the HRA may not meet until August. B. Alternative Action: 1. A motion to approve entering into a Preliminary Development Agreement between the HRA and Walker Instore, Inc. 2. A motion to deny entering into a Preliminary Development Agreement between the HRA and Walker Instore, Inc. Please state reason for denial. 3. A motion to table any action. 1 ~ . BRA Agenda - 06/07/06 c. Recommendation. Although the project is smaller than ideal, it appears to be very professional and well ran business. Great example of an entrepreneurial business. D.

Consideration to review the Transformation Borne Loan A lication Packa e for oossible amendinl!: Desil!llation of a title comoanv. A. Reference and backl!round: The suggestion to "designate a title company" came about with the closing of the Breiwick loan. The lender of the first mortgage would not close the same day with a public entity loan. Breiwick's title company was Quality Title of Albertville who were very pleasant and helpful to work with. The HRA's loan closed a few days later than the lender. The title company did not charge us and will disburse the HRA funds upon documentation from the borrower. The check was made out to Quality Title. I will record the HRA's second mortgage as soon as the document number ofthe first mortgage is available. The cost to the HRA is the recording fee and document preparation, neither of which is available. The program was written with no fees to the applicant. In talking with Dan Frie, he suggested the HRA consider as part of the Application Package, the need to designate a local title company. A designated title company would understand the HRA program, provide convenience, and the applicant would know up- front which title company to use. The intent of the program was to keep it simple. . The question becomes, would this be viewed as a stumbling block, inconvenient or cumbersome? I don't know if that would encourage or discourage a lender or influence their willingness to work with the HRA program. I believe the HRA hoped we'd work with a local lender and they would disburse the HRA funds. In the case of the first approved loan to the Petersen's, we have not closed. I've talked with Dave Madsen, Building Trades Mortgage, LLLP, Maple Grove. There has been some mis- communication between them and the Petersen which has held up the closing. Waiting to hear from him about closing date and where. A copy of the application package is attached. BASED ON THE HRA'S DISCUSSION AND DECISION, A MOTION TO AMEND THE APPLICATION PACKAGE MAY BE NECESSARY. I'll bring a copy of the transformation home loan escrow agreement, mortgage. and note to the meeting; should a commissioners which to review. .

Residents who enjoy living in the core city and know the benefits of living within walking distance of the Mississippi River, the community center, and the schools are choosing to adapt and redevelop their existing homes to meet their current needs. The Transformation Home Loan was developed to provide incentives for homeowners or home buyers in Monticello to begin major redevelopment/remodeling activities. . The Transformation Home Loan seeks to promote and foster a vibrant core city by: . Encouraging redevelopment of structurally substandard homes. . Encouraging home owner-occupancy. . Encouraging investment into the core city. . Increasing housing market value. TARGET AREA The Transformation Home Loan program is available for existing single-family detached homes located within the core city described as: . North ofI-94. . East of Otter Creek . South of Mississippi River. . West of Hospital and Middle School. TARGET VALUE The Transformation Home Loan program is available for existing single-family detached . homes with a 2006 assessed market value of$175,000 or less. !'vlonticcllo City Hall, 505 \Valnut Street Suite 1, Monticello, rvfN 55362-883\ .

TARGET CRITERIA The Transformation Home Loan program is available for existing single-family detached homes that meet the redevelopment qualification requirement of structurally substandard as defined by Tax Increment Financing Law, 469.174. "Structurally substandard" shall mean containing defects in structural element or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities. light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors. which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance. . A building is not structurally substandard if it is in compliance with the building code applicable to new buildings or could be modified to satisfy the building code at a cost of less than 15 percent of the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on the site. The municipality may find that a building is not disqualified as structurally substandard under the preceding sentence on the basis of reasonably available evidence, such as the size, type, and age of the building, the average costs of plumbing, electrical, or structural repairs, or other similar reliable evidence. The municipality may not make such a determination without an interior inspection of the property, but need not have an independent, expert appraisal prepared of the cost of repair and rehabilitation of the building. FUNDING SOURCE The Transformation Home Loan program is a one-year pilot program commencing January 1, 2005, with a limited amount of funds, $150,000. The program was extended in 2006 for one year. Program Features: ~ Pre-Remodeling Condition Report. The Monticello Building Department must assess the age of mechanical systems, measure square footage, and otherwise note the condition of the home prior to remodeling. Please call 763-295-3060 for an appointment. ~ The Transformation Loan. The Monticello Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) characterized the Transformation Loan as an "incentive loan". The incentive is just a little more fmancing with terrific terms, so that a homeowner may feel equipped . 2 - . . . to move forward on their remodeling project. To apply for the loan, the cost of your remodeling project must be $30,000 or more. The loan may be 25% of your remodeling project, when the cost of remodeling is $30,000 or more. The maximum loan amount is $20,000. The loan is interest-free, and is payable upon sale of your property or forgiven after five (5) years. If you have questions, call 763-271-3208. Funds are limited. Application Procedure: 1, Prior to starting vour proiect. obtain this application package which includes the builder requirements and summary of design consideration, loan application form, a list ofremodelers (contractors), and a remodeler form for remodelers who have not worked under the program previously. 2. Submit a complete application. A commitment of funds can only be made when all required items have been received. Please note: The City of Monticello's Building Department must approve all building plans, and may have requirements independent of loan requirements, All setback and zoning requirements must also be met. 3. Applications will be reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis, with priority being given to projects that are most ready to move forward. Project readiness will be determined by those that have completed drawings, have total project funding in place (e.g. have a loan commitment or have closed on mortgage financing), and lor have a remodeler under contract. Funding will not be held for projects that are not ready. 4. Once an application and other required documents have been received and reviewed, a loan commitment will be made. Meeting the eligibility criteria does not entitle an applicant to funding. The distribution of funds is the sole decision of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority, Conditions of the Transformation Incentive Loan: 1, Submitted applications will be reviewed for appropriateness and completeness, Projects generally must be value-added improvements such as renovation or expanding space. Plans will be reviewed for design considerations, 2. The loan will be calculated at up to 25% of the initial contract price if the contract price for remodeling is $30,000 or more, but not to exceed $20,000. The commitment of funds is made at the beginning of the project. 3 ~ 4. A Pre-Remodeling Condition Report is required by the HRA to meet city fmancing and auditing requirements. A property evaluator (not an appraiser) contracted by the HRA will spend approximately an hour at your home to assess the age of mechanical systems, measure square footage, and otherwise note the condition of the home prior to remodeling. This is a one-time report for HRA records and incurs no cost to the homeowner. . 3. Funds are limited. You may want to call ahead of time to find out if funds are still available. 5. Loans will not be considered for work in progress or work completed. The Transformation Loan can only be considered for projects not yet begun. 6. You will be sent a commitment letter verifying the reservation of funds to be provided at closing. A copy of the letter will be provided to your lender. 7. A copy of a letter of commitment from your lender verifying approval of the primary loan is required. . 8. The Transformation Home Loan funds will be deposited in an escrow account and disbursed by a title company. Upon satisfactory verification of work in progress or \L: upon completion, the escrow account will be drawn upon in pro-rated increments f. simultaneously as funds are drawn upon from the primary loan to make payments to the remodeler. Work must be completed prior to final disbursement. 9. The Transformation Home Loan shall be secured by a Mortgage Deed and Note. 10. Final payment of the committed Transformation Loan must be disbursed by the title company by no later than six months after the date of lender's closing. Please be informed that financial data shall be submitted to the Lender for purposes of this loan application. However, the fact that you apply for a Transformation Home Loan, the final loan amounts are considered public data according to Minnesota Statute Chapter 13. General Remodeler and Design Criteria: The HRA does not recommend any particular remodeler. Selected remodelers must complete a Remodeler Form, and comply with the general criteria established by the Monticello HRA. "Sweat equity" may be applied toward eligibility costs associated with . interior improvements such as painting, flooring, etc. or by a Minnesota Licensed Residential 4 . . . Contractor and when verified by a certified appraisal at the applicant's expense. Summary of Remodeler Reauirements It is the homeowner's responsibility to check on contractors thoroughly before selecting them. Your builder should: I. Demonstrate financial capability by providing a statement from a financial institution of sufficient construction capital. 2. Possess adequate Builder's Risk, Comprehensive General Liability and Worker's Compensation insurance coverage. 3. Have a written warranty policy to be shared with the homeowner or written evidence of commitment to perform warranted repairs required by the Minnesota State Statute. If the remodeler has not participated in the Transformation Home Program previously, the HRA will require a Remodeler Form to be completed. A form is attached. Summary of Housinl!: Desil!:n The HRA will require the following: I. Each home shall remain a detached single-family dwelling. 2. Each home shall be owner-occupied. 3. Garage space may be maintained or expanded, but not reduced. 4. The house building lines, rooflines, doors and window placement should minimize blank wall mass. House and garage orientation to the street must present a balanced and pleasing view from all sides. 5. Exterior materials should be low maintenance. Masonite type siding materials are not acceptable. 6. The site must be fully landscaped, including attractively placed foundation plantings and complete sod installation, lot line to lot line. 7. Adjoining properties must not be disturbed by the construction process. Construction planning is important since five foot side yard setbacks limit construction space. 8. The construction process, site grading, and the finished structure must improve or not have a detrimental impact on storm water drainage patterns in the neighborhood. Re- working an existing site grade to improve neighborhood drainage may be requested. If a roof is pitched towards neighboring homes, gutters may need to be installed to divert storm water, in addition to improved grading. 5 . . . BRA Agenda - 06/07/06 8. Consideration to derme "oualified business" and "non-oualified business" as it relates to marketinl! the Monticello Business Center. A. Reference and backl!round: Prior to printing of a small pamphlet marketing the Monticello Business Center and given the HRA change in selling strategy that a business does not have to meet the criteria to purchase land, I, again, wanted to clarify this. In other words, we are offering land for $1.00 per square foot to qualified business and $3.00 per square foot to non-qualified business. 1 would then suggest the pamphlet under the example read: qualified business and non-qualified business. Additionally, any reference to savings comparison and land investment savings be changed to reflect this. What this means is the HRA's goal is no longer to create job density, high wage-levels, or building value. The maximum land formula remains in place. At least on the first 35 acres, a business must comply with the recorded covenants: no outdoor storage, no steel building, irrigation, etc. I-IA uses only and 1-2 (Heavy Industrial) uses are not permitted.

WBS recommends purchase of the entire remaining 85 acres allowing the city to grade the entire site at a lesser cost than grading each lot individually. I concur with that recommendation or at a minimum to purchase the acreage to the west of proposed Dalton Avenue. For Rick, it's a question of coming up with the cash. Additionally, is the need to authorize feasibility study for construction of the road (remainder of Dalton Avenue to the south and the Haul Road to the west) and utility improvements. d) 511 Elm Street - We closed on the Antionette Breiwick Transformation Loan on May 18 at the office of Quality Title in Albertville. The HRA disbursed $20,000 to the title company who will disburse on behalf of the HRA. The HRA has a Transformation Home Loan Escrow Agreement, Promissory Note, and Second Mortgage. The lender did not want to close simultaneously with the HRA loan; therefore, the HRA mortgage will be recorded as soon as I get the document number of the First Mortgage. The contractor has submitted a building permit application. e) 1023 West Broadway - We have not closed with Keith and Jackie Petersen on their Transformation Home Loan. I've talked to the closer several times and each appears to be waiting on information. The construction project is complete; however, landscaping is on- going. t) Sunny Fresh Foods - The City will host a breakfast recognition honoring Sunny Fresh Foods as recipient of the 2005 Malcom Balridge National Quality Award. This will be held Friday, June 16 at 7:30 a.m. in the Community Center. Invitation go out ThursdaylFriday. Mark your calendar. g) Dahlheimer's Distribution - I've contacted Greg about the City, IDC, HRA, and Planning Commission to tour their new facility. A date is forth coming. (Susie and Sandy too) . BRA Agenda - 06/07/06 . h) Marketing - The sign should be up at the entrance of Monticello Business Center; although I have not confirmed this. The contract with the billboard sign company has been executed and returned. Contributed $250 to the Wright County Partnership for a Metro Fringe Enterprise Network Systems Analysis, a collaborate effort between Wright and Sherburne Counties. Fliers in draft stage for review by HRA on June 7 prior to printing. i) Monticello's community profile is being updated. Not updated since 2003. This profile is on the state's web site DEED.state.mn.us. I'm waiting for some organizational information to complete the task. Also, I've been assigned a password so I can update the city's web site under economic development. That task yet to do. j) Preparing an economic development department head presentation for the Council June 12. k) Leads: New inquiries have been slow oflate.
