HRA Minutes - 3/2/83
K. A corporate comprehensive plan.
City Administrator Eidem noted that with respect to basic policy
guidelines, he had recently talked to Jim Holmes of Holmes E. Graven,
Attorneys, and had been informed that sample guidelines simply did
not exist because of the wide variety of projects that may be proposed
and, guidelines had never been initiated. Eidem noted that were the
guidelines too stringent, they may become self defeating and destroy
t1w attractiveness of using T.I.F. in Montic,•Iln. The rest of the HRA
concurred with that and affirmed their need to be flexible. Several
members commented, however, on the type of paojoct where the HRA
would buy land from one individual at his askiral price and then sell
it Wck to the same individual at a much lwer price, thereby creating
capital for the developer. All members agreed that purchases of this
sort, while they may be advantageous to both the developer and the
City, and may be perfectly legitimate, did give the general appear-
ance of collusion. It was suggested that in a proposal of this
nature, the land be made available to any buyer through a public
offering and that, of eourso, the seller be aware of such an offer-
ing prior to his selling the land to the HRA. Members felt that
this would demonstrate that their action wan in the best interest
of the City, and would make the developer more cautious in proposing
this typo of a land transaction. A motion by Schrupp, seconded by
Reeve and carried Unanimously that any lard proposed for sale and
repurchased by the same individual met be placed on a public offer-
ing prior to the resale.
F.idem reported to the HRA that Rick Wrigley. owner of Late 1 through
6, Block 1, Commercial Court, had earlier expressed an interest in
i.elling Lots 1, 2, 5 and 6. Members agreed that it would be a good
uito for commercial highway development, would be inconformenco with
the zoning ordinance and would he worth investigation. Mhito noted
that perhaps the HRA could retain some typo of option on the land
and then begin to openly market the land. A motion by Reeve, second-
ed by Schrupp and carried unanimounly to direct Eidem to begin nogo-
tiations with Rick Longley for an option on Lots 1, 2, 5 and G,
Block 1, Commercial Court, City of Monticello. Status of negotiations
to hu reported to the full HRA at the Aprli meeting.
There lying no other business, Chairman white adjourned the meeting.

SORENSEN .
Mr. Brad Larson presented background information to the HRA
members referencing hie previous experience in senior housing
development and of his conversation with the local Hospital
District who expressed an identified need; howeve r,
uncor►firmed need for congregate or assisted -living senior
housing. Mr. Brad Larson plans to make a concept presentation
to the Hospital Board in March.
Under the Farmers Home Administration (PmHA) Program, the
qualifying annual moderate income for singles is 827,000 and
for couples is 830,000. Low -moderate income applicants
receive priority over above -moderate income applicants;
however, once a resident no one is evicted. One bedroom uni to
are SBO eq ft and have a value of less than 840,000 per unit
for land and building. Subject to a market study, the
proposed 40 unit three-story congregate senior housing
facility would consist mostly of one -bedroom units with
kitchens. The facility would be served by a bell system to
the emergency room, an on-site caretaker, and an elevator.
The 6,000 eq ft commons area, 20% of the gross base, would
cone Set of a community, dining, and warming -kitchen room and
a laundry room on each floor. Additional services are add-on
costs.
Mr. Brad Larson reported that the Broadway Square, River Park

apartments are full.
HRA MINUTES
MARCH 3, 1993
The site proposed by Mr. Brad Larson requires purchase and
demolition of the three structures to the west of the Hospital
District Ambulance building along East Broadway. With the
anticipated purchase/demolition costs and FmHA site appraisal
of $100,000, Mr. Brad Larson anticipates a financial site gap
of $180,000. Projected annual tax increment is $25,000 on the
proposed $450,000 senior housing land and building. Time -line
for application, funding, and construction Is two years. Mr.
Brad Larson would need a letter from the HRA verifying secured
site purchase options. Mr. Brad Larson indicated there would
be no relocation costs and requests control of the demolition.
An FmHA appraisal is also necessary.
The group looked into the future and the potential of a
Monticello Senior Campus at the proposed site. The campus
would include a new senior center and additional market -rate
and/or subsidized senior housing facilities. The area
identified was to the east of Dayton Street between East
Broadway and East River Street. Mr. Brad Larson suggested the
HRA purchase the ambulance building and relocate it to the
east of the Monticllo Clinic. Brad accepted the HRA's request
to inquire of the acquisition costs associated with the
properties identified for the potential senior campus. Mr.
O'Neill indicated that the PZ -M zoning was appropriate.
The NRA thanked Mr. Brad Larson, Sorensen, and Schoenecker for
their impressive presentation. The HRA elected not to endorse
a developer at this time in order to honor its invitation and
hear a presentation by the Guardian Angels Foundation.
Koropchak informed members that the Foundation, a non-profit
organization, does pay property taxes at a lower -rate similiar
to a limited -partnership; however, a non-profit organization
does not pay income tax. The Guardian Angels Board of
Directors will meet on March 24 and review the HRA's
Invitation for a presentation. The HRA was encouraged by the
local Hospital District's interest to provide services to a
proposed senior facility. Mr. Brad Larson indicated the
Foundation was a fine, well-run organization; however, stated
it is ruled by a Board.
HRA recommended a letter be sent to Mr. Brad Larson stating
their appreciation of his time and that the HRA was very
impressed with his presentation and concept. Additionally,
since the developer indicated the proposed senior housing
project would cashflow, the HRA wanted to be on public record
as viewing the project as viable. The City Council Is be
advised and invited to the next presentation.

annually if the completed project consist of a more extensive,
greater than required in I-2 zoning, landscape treatment along
Fallon Avenue and/or consist of a 50% contrasting exterior -
wall material treatment on the Fallon Avenue and Dundas Road
sides of the proposed metal facility. The increase was
suggested as an incentive for the developer, thereby,
encouraging an aesthetically -pleas Ing transition from the I-2
to BC zoning across the street. Mr. Pelstring's projections
indicated an annual tax surplus of $3,600 after the
Administration Expense, TIF Penalty, and TIF payments were
deducted.

6. CONSIDERATION TO REVIEW INFORMATION ON THE MINNESTOA HOUSING
FINANCE AGENCY PROGRAM AND TO AUTHORIZE FURTHER DIRECTION.
Based on the MRA's February 6 request for further information,
Koropchak reported that the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency
(MHFA) funding application deadline for the Minnesota City
Participation Program (MCPP) was April 15, 1993. The MHFA
sells mortgage revenue bonds on behalf of local governments to
assist them in meeting locally identified housing needs.
Under the program, local governments may adjust income and
house price limits and implement other administrative
requirements. For Wright County, the maximum adjusted gross
household income for newly constructed homes is 938,500 and
for one, two-family existing homes is $34,500, and the maximum
acquisition cost for newly constructed one -family, existing
two-family homes Is $95,000 and for one -family existing homes
Is $85,000. The program is for first-time home buyers with
interest rates of approximately l% to 1.5% below market
mortgage interest rates.
After completion of MHFA application for funding, the program
requires very little administrative time as the committed
lending institutions services the first-time home buyer's loan
application and closing. In Monticello, Liberty Savings Is a
committed lender through the use of Wright County funds.
Koropchak reported that in the last year the HRA office has
received an increase of telephone calls inquiring to the
availability low -moderate housing. Additionally, two local
lending institutions expressed an interest in the program. As
stated last month, the program serves as an excellent public
relations tool, requires little administrative time, local
governments may set requirements, and the funds would be
allocated specifically for the City of Monticello.

MARCH 3, 1993
The HRA inquired of the cost, a modest processing fee of $100
to $600 for allotment size of $2$0,000 to $3,250,000,
respectively.
Mr. O'Neill suggested the program may not be as popular today
because of low market mortgage interest rates. The HRA was
not interested in the program as they saw no need. They
encouraged interested lending institutions to apply and pay
the processing fee.
7. CONSIDERATION TO REVIEW THE YEAR-END SUMMARY OF THE HRA FUND
AND TIF -DEBT SERVICE FUNDS.
City Administrator Wolfsteller reviewed the year-end summaries
with HRA members noting deficits in IXI District due to HRA
loan payback to city, Remmele District due to $55,000 excess
incentive, and Shingobee District due to preparation fee. He
would need to check on the reason for the Martle District
deficit. The HRA inquired of the dollars available for
spending? Mr. Wolfeteller stated his answer now is $135,093.
He would need to project the revenue and the outstanding bond
debt for each district by the life duration before stating
future spending dollars. The HRA requested this information
and requested to review the proposed annual HRA budget in July
prior to submission to the City Council.
Mr. Wolfet eller informed HRA members that the City's Liability
coverage was $1.6 million, renewed annually.

Consideration of an uodate on the Guardian Anaels Foundation
Senior Housina Presentation.
A. Reference and Backaround:
In a conversation with Carol Mills, she reported that she and
Barb Schwientek would be meeting in the afternoon of April 2.
Carol's meeting on March 26 was with the Health Service
Committee. The Foundation's Finance Committee will meet on
April la and the Parent Board on April 21.
Carol requested I contact the HUD office regarding HUD
allocated dollars and date of the scheduled training session.
In conversation with Cindy Wenz, Minnesota -HUD office, they
anticipate notification of allocated dollars in mid-April for
project funding in 1993. Actual construction is from 18 to 24
months after funding approval. No date has been set for the
training session and the application is due one month after.
Additionally, Carol inquired if the HRA has earmarked any
particular sites for consideration.
It is my recommendation that the HRA extend the time and allow
the Foundation to make a senior housing presentation at the
HRA' a May S meeting becauoe of potential new options which may
result from the above scheduled meetings.
Enclosed you will find a copy of the HRA's letter to Mr. Brad
Larson, Mr. Brad Larson's letter to the HRA, and the
Information provided the City Council.

Dear Mr. Larson:
March 10, 1993
On behalf of the Monticello Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA), I
thank you for your senior housing presentation of March 3.
The HRA was very impressed with your project concept and because the
presentation included a projected positive cashflow, the NRA is on record as
viewing a congregate or aeaieted-living housing concept as a viable project
to pursue. Prior to HRA endorsement of a developer or project, the HRA
elects to honor its invitation and hear the second identified developer's
presentation.
Additionally, Brad, it Is the HRA's understanding that you agreed to the
their request to research the potential interest and acquisition coats of the
properties from Dayton Street east adjoining the properties included in your
proposed project. Please advise if otherwise.
Again, the NRA was very impressed with your presentation and they appreciate
your interest in the community's future and welfare. In the meantime, if you
have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me or one of the HRA
members.
Sincerely,
MONTICELLO HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

Re: Monticello Terrace Congregate Housing Facility
Dear Jeff, 011ie and the Housing & Redevelopnent Authority,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the
opportunity to meet with you as staff and members of the HRA last
week and afford us the opportunity to present a proposal with
regard to what we have named as Monticello Terrace, the proposed
FmHA congregate housing facility. I know that I speak for our
architect, Skip Sorensen of Johnson, Sheldon & Sorensen
Architects, and our marketing consultant, Mike Schoenecker of
Advantage Marketing, in stating that we are excited about the
possibility and would look forward to working with you in doing
this facility.
Since you are entertaining another development proposal from
Guardian Angels on March 24th, I will do nothing further with the
hospital district pending that presentation.
Respectfully,

INFORMATIONAL ITEM
by 011ie Koropchak
This item is to inform the City Council on the progress of the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority's (HRA) Goal: To serve as a
facilitator and to investigate the need for subsidized or market
rate congregate or assisted -living senior housing. Congregate or
assieted-living fills the housing -gap need between independent
living and the nursing home. Standard services include one daily
meal, emergency call, and building security. Optional services
include transportation, 24-hour staffing, recreational activities,
laundry, housekeeping, etc.
In December, HRA members, Hospital Administrator Schwientek, and
Mayor Maus visited the Guardian Angels Senior Housing Campus in Elk
River. During the NAHRO Conference, the HRA Executive Director
visited senior housing projects in Eagan and Bloomington.
The HRA has identified two private developers who have expressed
Interest in the development and ownership of a senior housing
project. Both developers were invited by the HRA to make a
preliminary senior housing concept presentation. Developer "A"
made a presentation to the HRA last week and Developer "B"
anticipates making a presentation the end of March.
_ Based upon the presentation made by Developer "A", the project will
cashflow. Therefore, the HRA views the project as viable and
having merit. Also, the HRA Is encouraged by the Hospital
District's interest to investigate the possibility of providing the
standard and optional services or management necessary to complete
the congregate or aeslsted-living concept.
A key component of the project funding application is the
completion of a housing market study. In order to proceed with
funding, the study results must indicate a need for congregate or
assieted-living senior housing. A study has not been completed nor
Is a study currently undergoing; however, local assumptions are
that a need does exist within the geographic area served by the
local health care providers.
Site selection is another very important component, as any future
plans to develop a Monticello Senior Campus may be linked to this
site. It is anticipated that the proposed congregate or assisted -
living senior housing structure would be ready for occupancy no
sooner than 1998.
Again, I repeat, the HRA was encouraged by the results of the first
presentation. I will periodically keep you informed of the
project's progress.

DATE: April 1, 1993 ✓✓
RE: Potential TIF District Surplus Funds
Previously, the HRA members were given financial summaries of each of our tax increment
districts that outlined the revenue and expenditures for the year 1992 and the resulting cash
surplus (deficit) at year-end. While the financial summaries seem to indicate a substantial
cash surplus overall within our tax increment districts, committee members had questioned
how much of the surplus funds are actually available for other uses at this time.
As the summaries indicated, our 14 TIF districts which we keep track of had cash surpluses
totaling $469,294 as of 12/31/92. While this may seem like a substantial amount of money,
it cannot all be considered surplus in that the funds are not all available for other uses.
Most of the districts still have outstanding debt that has to be paid by either using future
Lax increment revenues from each district or by utilizing some of the cash surplus. Until
each district is actually ended and revenues aro no longer collectable and all debt payments
have been made, dic true surplus or deficiency will not be known.
To give you a better idea of the outlook in the future, I have put together another financial
summary which indicates the cash surplus at the end of the year for each district and the
estimated future revenue and expenditures that will likely occur for each of the remaining
years of die district. As this summary indicates, the HRA fund will have a substantial
amount of surplus when all of the districts are terminated totaling over $2,200,000. The
only problem is this will not occur for up to 20 years for sorno of Cho districts, while the
majority of them will terminate in another 6 or 7 years, In reviewing the report, you will
notice that only two of the districts tochnimlly have a surplus, if you consider a surplus an
e
Memo

amount that is available and exceeds any future debt requirements. Those would be districts
#1 and #3 in that the cash surplus at the end of the year already exceeds any debt payments
that are due in the future. The rest of the districts, although having substantial amounts
of funds available, also have a substantial amount of future debt payments to make;
therefore, it is hard to consider the cash balance at the end of the year available for other
uses.
Another definition of a true surplus might be to look at whether future estimated revenues
will meet or exceed future debt payments for each district. Logic indicates that if the future
revenue is equal or exceeding future debt, the HRA could consider the present cash surplus
as available for other uses in that none of these existing funds will be needed for covering
future obligations. What it really comes down to is that it is very difficult to say at any
point in time how much surplus does the HRA really have when any of the districts still
have outstanding debt that needs to be paid in the future. Although estimated future TIF
revenues can be estimated, there is no guarantee that future revenues can't be altered
because of state legislative action, changing market, and/or tax capacity values of properties
resulting in lower tax revenues than originally planned. The only sure thing is that there
are debt payments to make, and those will not change unless for some reason we refinance.
Again, while it may seem the TIF funds have over $400,000 available at the end of 1992, it
should be pointed out that debt payments made in late January absorbed approximately
$200,000 of this surplus. Likewise, it is anticipated that the HRA will collect approximately
$350,000 in 1993 in TIF revenue, which again will create a larger cash surplus; but not all
of these funds can be used for other purposes.
If anyone has any questions regarding this report, or if you are more confused now then
before, feel free to give me a call. Possibly I could review this at the next HRA meeting if
desired.

HRA AGENDA
APRIL 7, 1993
Consideration an an update on the MHFA and Rediscover
Richfield aroarams.
Reference and Backaround:
MHFA - After the HRA's March meeting and decision not to
participate in the MHFA programs, Mayor Maus brought to the
attention of the City Administrator the enclosed article from
the LMC Cities Bulletin and wondered why "Monticello did not
participate in this program as we are promoting housing
developments". On March 18, the enclosed article appeared in
the Monticello Times reporting that Wright County was applying
for $2.5 millions of MHFA funds. Due to April 15 application
deadline date and the County's request for increased dollars
from a year ago, City staff recommends the HRA wait another
year and then reconsider the issue of applying for the first-
time home buyers dollars. If the HRA applied and allocations
were awarded, the allocations would be dust for the City of
Monticello.
Rediscover Richfield - Responding to the HRA's March
questions. This program is designed for ownership of single-
family homes and not for rental property. The program is
marketed through the general fundo of the City of Richfield
Community Development and the HRA. Pre -1990, the Richfield
HRA established twenty-five year Redevelopment and Housing
Districts therefore the tax increments help subsidize the
expense associated with the program. Through Federal funding
(Community Development Block Grants (CDBG]), poor quality
homes are purchased at fair market values, a 50 X 130 lot Is
sold for $27,500, and through an executed development contract
a home is constructed at a minimum new value of $90,000 and
ranging to $120,000. The estimated net tax on a $80,000
homestead in Richfield in 1992 was $1,066. The estimated net
tax on a $79,500 homestead in Monticello In 1992 was $850.
The program becomes lees attractive to a community like
Monticello because for the program to caohflow a community
must receive Federal funding. Monticello generally does not
qualify for Federal funding because of our property valuation.
Also, a housing market study would need to demonstrate a need
exist.
