Consider Approval of Creating a New Tax Increment Financing Plan No.5 -1 and
Development District No. 5
The City Council at their May 6, 1996 meeting authorized staff to hold a public hearing for June 24,
1996 to consider establishing a new tax increment financing district. The purpose of this district is
to assist North Bay, a residential development in reducing the price of owner- occupied homes so as
to be affordable under the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act (LCA). In order to accomplish
this objective, the City of Chanhassen would have to incur some of the costs and expense to reduce
the capital and administrative costs of the proposed development in order to meet the LCA. The Met
Council's definition of affordable are those occupied units under $115,000. Under this plan the city
would be providing assistance to 35 of the 76 units within the Rottlund development. Staff is
proposing 18 units to be designated for first time home buyers with a price range of $88,000 to
$95,000 and combined net income of not more than $43,000. The remaining 17 units would have a
price range of $105,000 to $115,000 and a combined income of not more than $54,600. All of the
units would also have a recapture policy where the home owner will only receive the annual
Consumer Price Index, 10 year limitation, plus realtor costs on the resale of the property.
The proposed development currently pays $7,166 per year in taxes which will be the "base original
tax capacity" (this amount will continue to go to the school, city, and county) and the "capture tax
capacity" is estimated to be $60,481. The total estimated amount of taxes captured through the life
of the district (25 years) totals $1,512,025. The total obligation to Rottlund is as follows:
The city proposes to assume $350,000 in sewer, water and roadway improvement costs
against the site.
Land write down to further reduce their housing project costs of $400,000.
Total Incentives: $750,000
Mr. Don Ashworth
June 19, 1996

Staff also estimated 10% of the project costs for administrative expenses in creating the district and
administering the annual reports. The project is also designed as a "pay as you go program" and the
annual payment to Rottlund would only occur from available increment from the district. If the city
council should approve this district, staff would prepare a contract with Rottlund outlining a
repayment schedule for city council's approval. Staff has also sent notice to the school district and
Carver County (see Attachment #3).
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the city council approve the Resolution Creating Tax Increment Financing
District No. 5 -1 and Development District No. 5 (see Attachment #4) and direct staff to prepare a
private redevelopment agreement with Rottlund Homes.

B. Statutory Authority
The City has determined that it is necessary, desirable and in the public interest to
establish Development District No. 5, pursuant to the provisions of the Act. The City has also
determined that the funding of the necessary activities and improvements in Development District
No. 5 shall be accomplished in part or in whole through tax increment financing in accordance
with the TIF Act.
C. Statement of Public Purpose
It is found that there is a need for the City to offer assistance to a residential development
proposed to be constructed within the City. If the project is built pursuant to City assistance, the
effect will be to increase employment opportunities, improve the tax base and improve the
general economy of Chanhassen and the State.
The specific public purpose of Development District No. 5 is to foster development of the
residential project for low and moderate income housing. In order to accomplish this purpose,
the City intends to incur those costs and expenses specified in the Plan for TIF District No. 5 -1.
In choosing to support the project, the City is attempting to meet its obligations towards
affordable housing, as articulated in the MLC Act.
D. Statement of Obiectives
The Authority seeks to achieve the following objectives through the Development District
Program:
1. promote and secure the prompt development of property in Development
District No. 5 in a manner consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and with minimal
adverse impact on the environment, which property is currently less productive because
of the lack of proper utilization and lack of investment, thus promoting and securing the
development of other land in Chanhassen;
2. encourage additional employment opportunities within Development District
No. 5 and Chanhassen for residents of the community and the surrounding area, thereby
improving living standards and preventing unemployment and the loss of skilled labor and
other human resources in the area;
3. secure the increase of property subject to taxation by the City, County, the
school district and other taxing jurisdictions in order to better enable such entities to pay
for public improvements and governmental services and programs required to be provided
by them;
4. secure housing within the City which is affordable to persons of low and
moderate income, which housing is unlikely to be available without public assistance on
the private market;
5. promote the concentration of appropriate residential uses and related
development within Development District No. 5 in order to maintain the area in a manner
compatible with its highest and best use; and
6. encourage development within the District which is aesthetically pleasing
and which creates a positive visual image of the community.

E. Environmental Controls
It is not anticipated that any development within the Development District will present
major environmental concerns. Lands within Development District No. 5 contain wetlands and
some are within the shoreland zone of Lake Riley. The City will require that the developer
comply with all statutes, regulations and ordinances when developing any land within the District.
All public improvements and private development will be constructed and carried out in
' compliance with applicable environmental standards.
F. Open Space to be Created
' Any open space within the Development District will be created in accordance with the
development controls of the City and will be adequate for the needs of the residents of the
community as well as those who work in or visit the Development District.
' G. Public Facilities to be Constructed
All public facilities constructed within the Development District will be financially
' feasible and compatible with the City's Comprehensive Plan.
H. Proposed Reuse of Property
' The City may acquire property within Development District No. 5 in order to resell the
land to a developer at a reduced price. Property within the Development District will be reused
in accordance with the City's ordinances and Comprehensive Plan as well as with this Program
' and the Plan for TIF District No. 5 -1. No property will be acquired or sold by the City without
entering into an agreement with the developer regarding the specific reuse of the land.
' I. Development District Financing
Within Development District No. 5, the Authority will establish TIF District No. 5 -1 to
finance the cost of development activities. Project costs for TIF District No. 5 -1 will be met at
' least in part through pledged increment. Details of project cost are contained in the TIF Plan
which follows this Program.
' J. Relocation
Although no relocation is anticipated in connection with any project within Development
District No. 5, the City accepts its responsibility for providing for relocation pursuant to section
' 469.133 of the Act. If relocation is necessary, provision will be made in accordance with
Minnesota Statutes sections 117.50 through 117.56, as amended.
' K. Administration of Development District
Maintenance and operation of the public improvements is the responsibility of the
administrator of Development District No. 5. The administrator will be appointed by the city
' council. Each year the administrator will submit to the City the maintenance and operation
budget for the following year. The administrator will administer the Development District
pursuant to the provisions of section 469.131 of the Act; provided, however, that such powers
may only be exercised at the direction of the City. No action taken by the administrator shall
be effective without authorization by the City.
The City has not and does not anticipate the need to create an advisory board to advise
it on the planning, construction or implementation of the activities and improvements outlined
in the Development Program.

SECTION II. TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN FOR TAX INCREMENT FINANCING
DISTRICT NO. 5 -1.
' A. Statutory Authority Pursuant to section 469.175, subd. 4 of the TIF Act, the City
is authorized to establish tax increment financing districts to facilitate and provide financing for
the development objectives articulated in the Development District Program. The Authority
' intends to establish and operate TIF District No. 5 -1 pursuant to the Act and TIF Act. The Plan
for TIF District No. 5 -1 is consistent with the City's plans and objectives as outlined in the
Program for Development District No. 5.
' B. Statement of Obiectives The Authority seeks to achieve the following objectives
through the establishment of TIF District No. 5 -1;
' 1. encourage affordable residential development in an area of the community
which has not been utilized to its full potential;
2. improve the tax base of Chanhassen and the general economy of the City
' and State;
3. provide employment opportunities within the community; and
' 4. implement relevant portions of the Comprehensive Plan.
The City's specific purpose in establishing TIF District No. 5 -1 is to promote the
' development of a residential project proposed to contain 76 owner - occupied townhomes near
Lake Riley. Thirty -five of the units will be priced at a level to make them affordable under the
MLC Act's guidelines. Housing which meets this definition cannot be provided by the private
' market in cities like Chanhassen without public assistance. The City wishes to provide the
assistance necessary to allow the units to be sold to income - qualified buyers. The City intends
to utilize tax increment to write down the cost of land and pay for certain public improvements
in order to achieve the necessary price level. Without public assistance, the development could
' not be built with affordable housing and the goals and objectives of the MLC Act could not be
accomplished.
' C. Statement of Public Purpose In adopting the Plan for TIF District No. 5 -1, the
Authority will make the following findings:
1. Anticipated affordable residential housing would not reasonably be
' expected to occur within Development District No. 5 solely through private investment
within the reasonably foreseeable future and, therefore, the use of TIF is deemed
necessary;
' 2. The TIF Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound
needs of the community as a whole, for development of the District by private enterprise;
3. The TIF Plan conforms to general plans for development of Chanhassen
as a whole as articulated in the Comprehensive Plan;
4. The increased market value of the property that could reasonably be
expected to occur without the use of tax increment financing would be less than the
increase in market value estimated to result from the proposed development after
subtracting the present value of the projected tax increment for 25 years; and
t 5. The area included within TIF District No. 5 -1 qualifies as a housing TIF
district within the meaning of the TIF Act.
RHB105171
CH130 -59 5
1
The conclusions to be reached by the City regarding the above are based upon the
recommendations of city staff and consultants after analysis of the financial feasibility of the
project, the conclusions of the planning and zoning board after review of the Comprehensive Plan
as well as the familiarity of members of the City Council with the property involved and the
likelihood that the property will develop within the reasonably foreseeable future solely through
private efforts.
With specific reference to finding no. 4 above, the City will conclude that no affordable
housing could reasonably be expected to be developed within the reasonably foreseeable future
within the District. In that event, no increase in market value could be expected to occur and
any increase in market value associated with the assisted project, even discounted by the present
value of the stream of increment used to assist the developer, is greater than zero. This analysis
is based on comparisons of similar projects, i.e., affordable housing. The analysis fails if it is
assumed that market rate housing or another use would have been built instead. In that case,
affordable housing could never be justified under these terms. The City believes this is not the
intent of the TIF Act and, instead, has conducted its analysis according to the above assumptions.
D. Development District Program The City intends to adopt a Program for
Development District No. 5 on June 24, 1996, at the same time as the establishment of TIF
District No. 5 -1. The plan for development of Chanhassen outlined in the Program will continue
to provide the basis of the City's efforts to develop portions of the community which have not
and remain unlikely to be developed solely through private efforts. The Plan for TIF District No.
5 -1 is consistent with the Program for Development District No. 5.
E. Description of TIF District The legal descriptions of the parcels within TIF
District No. 5 -1 are included as Exhibit C. A map of the boundaries of TIF District No. 5 -1 is
attached hereto as Exhibit B. Exhibits B and C are incorporated herein by reference.
F. Development District Contracts The City has not yet entered into a development
contract with regard to the development of any property within TIF District No. 5 -1. The City
anticipates entering into such an agreement with Rottlund Homes during the third quarter of 1996
for the affordable housing project. Contracts regarding additional property with TIF District No.
5 -1 will be entered into in accordance with section 469.176, subd. 5 of the TIF Act. All
contracts will be approved by the City prior to becoming effective.
G. Classification of TIF District TIF District No. 5 -1 qualifies as a housing TIF
district, pursuant to section 469.174, subd. 11 of the TIF Act.
H. Modification of TIF Plan The Plan for TIF District No. 5 -1 may be modified by
the City, provided that any enlargement of the geographic area of the TIF District, increase in
amount of bonded indebtedness to be incurred, including a determination to capitalize interest
on the debt if that determination was not a 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 tax
capacity to be retained by the City, increase in total estimated tax increment expenditures or
designation of additional property to be acquired by the City shall be approved upon the notice
and after such discussion, public hearing and findings as required for approval of the original
Plan.
I. Use of Tax Increment Pursuant to section 469.176, subd. 4 of the TIF Act, all
revenues derived from TIF District No. 5 -1 shall be used in accordance with the TIF Plan. The
revenues shall be used to finance or otherwise pay the capital and administrative costs of
development activities within the District as identified in the Program and Plan.
J. Excess Tax Increment Pursuant to section 469.176, subd. 2 of the TIF Act, in any
year in which increment exceeds the amount necessary to pay the costs authorized by the TIF
RHB105171
CH130 -59 6
u

Plan, the City shall use the excess amount to do any of the following, in the order determined
by the City:
1. prepay the outstanding bonds or other obligations;
2. discharge the pledge of tax increment therefor;
3. pay into an escrow account dedicated to the payment of bonds or other
obligations; or
4. return the excess amount to the Carver County auditor who shall distribute
the excess amount to the City, the County and the school district in direct proportion to
their respective tax capacity rates.
The City may also choose to modify the TIF Plan in order to provide for other public
improvements within the District.
K. Limitation on Increment
1. No increment shall be paid to the City from TIF District No. 5 -1 after three
years from the date of certification of the original tax capacity of the property in the TIF
district by the county auditor unless within the three year period (a) bonds have been
issued pursuant to section 469.178 of the TIF Act, or (b) the City has acquired property
within TIF District No. 5 -1, or (c) the City has constructed or caused to be constructed
public improvements within TIF District No. 5 -1.
2. If, after four years from the date of certification of the original tax capacity
of TIF District No. 5 -1, no demolition, rehabilitation, or renovation of property or other
site preparation, including qualified improvement of a street or right -of -way adjacent to
a parcel but not installation of underground utility service, including sewer or water
systems, have been commenced on a parcel located within TIF District No. 5 -1 by the
City, or by the owner of the parcel in accordance with the TIF Plan, no additional
increment may be taken from that parcel, and the original tax capacity of that parcel shall
be excluded from the original tax capacity of the TIF District. If one of these activities
subsequently commences, the City shall so certify to the county auditor, and the tax
capacity of the property as most recently certified by the commissioner of revenue may
be added to the TIF District.
' 3. No tax increment shall in any event be paid to the City from TIF District
No. 5 -1 after 25 years from the date of receipt by the City of the first increment.
L. Limitation on Administrative Expenses Pursuant to section 469.176, subd. 3 of
the TIF Act, administrative expenses are limited to 10 percent of the total tax increment
expenditures budgeted or actually incurred, whichever is less. Each time the City increases the
budget of TIF District No. 5 -1, the amount of increment allocated to administrative costs may
be increased as long as the total of administrative expenditures does not exceed 10 percent of the
total budget of the TIF District.
M. Limitation on Boundary Changes The geographic area of TIF District No. 5 -1
may be reduced, but cannot be enlarged after five years following the date of certification of the
original tax capacity by the Carver county auditor.
' N. Relocation Although no relocation is anticipated, the City accepts as binding its
obligations under state law regarding relocation benefits and, if necessary, will administer
relocation services for families, individuals and businesses displaced by public action.
RHB105171
CH130 -59 7
O. Parcels to Be Acquired Within the TIF District It is anticipated that a majority
of the property within the TIF District may be acquired by the City. If property is acquired by
the City, the City will resell it to Rottlund Homes at a reduced cost. No property will be
acquired by the City or resold to a developer until a development agreement has been signed by
the parties.
,
P. TIF Account The tax increment received with respect to the TIF District No. 5 -1
shall be segregated by the City in a special account on its official books and records.
'
Q. Estimate of Project Costs The following costs are authorized for expenditure
within TIF District No. 5 -1:
,
Housing Project Costs, including
land acquisition and site
'
preparation reimbursement $ 400,000
Special Assessment Assumption
for roadway and public utilities 350,000
,
Administrative Costs 75,000
TOTAL $ 825,000
,
R. Estimate of Bonded Indebtedness The City does not intend to sell its general
obligation bonds to pay for the items budgeted in this Plan. The City will finance the costs of
,
public improvements through special assessments which will be assumed by the City. Pay -as-
you-go financing will be utilized to reimburse the developer for site preparation and land costs.
The City may use a revenue note in financing with the developer.
'
S. Original Tax Capacity and Tax Increment Pursuant to section 469.177, subd. 1
of the TIF Act, the original tax capacity for TIF District No. 5 -1 is $7,166. Each year the Carver
county auditor will measure the increase or decrease in the total tax capacity of property in the
'
TIF district. Any year in which the tax capacity of TIF District No. 5 -1 exceeds $7,166, an
increment will be payable to the Authority. Any year in which the tax capacity is below $7,166,
no value will be captured and no increment will be payable to the Authority.
'
Each year after the certification of the original tax capacity, the county auditor will
increase or decrease the original tax capacity of property within TIF District No. 5 -1 as a result
of:
'
1. change in the tax exempt status of the property;
2. reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of the TIF District;
'
or
3. reduction of valuation by means of a court - ordered abatement, stipulation
'
agreement, voluntary abatement made by the assessor or auditor or by order of the
Minnesota commissioner of revenue.
T. Duration of the TIF District In accordance with section 469.176, subd. 1 of the
'
TIF Act, the Authority wishes to retain its right to receive TIF payments until 25 years from the
date of the receipt of the first increment.
,
U. Estimate of Captured Tax Capacity Pursuant to sections 469.175, subd. 1 and
469.177, subd. 2 of the TIF Act, the estimated net captured tax capacity of TIF District No. 5 -1
'
RHB105171

CH130 -59
J
will be $60,481 after January 2, 1998 for taxes payable in 1999, when the housing project has
been completed. A smaller increment may be paid in the prior year. The captured tax capacity
was estimated in the following manner:
' Tax Capacity on January 2, 1998 $67,647
Original Tax Capacity -7,166
' Captured Tax Capacity $60,481
' Pursuant to section 469.177, subd. 2 of the TIF Act, it is found and declared that all of
the captured tax capacity generated by TIF District No. 5 -1 is necessary to finance or otherwise
make permissible expenditures authorized by section 469.176, subd. 4 of the TIF Act.
' V. Estimated of Impact on Other Taxing Jurisdiction In is anticipated that up to
$90,300 in increment will be captured annually within TIF District No. 5 -1. This increment
amount is based on the value of the development on January 2, 1998 for taxes payable in 1999.
' For the purposes of estimating increment during the life of TIF District No. 5 -1, no inflation has
been assumed in the value of the new development. The composite tax capacity rate for the
affected property is currently 149.1763 percent. Applying the percentage of the total tax capacity
rate attributable to each taxing jurisdiction to the annual increment of $90,300 reveals the annual
' "loss" of tax dollars by each jurisdiction if the projects would have occurred without TIF.
Although the City believes the actual impact on other taxing jurisdictions is zero because
development would not have occurred within the reasonably foreseeable future without public
' intervention, the assumed amount of tax dollars foregone by each jurisdiction is listed below:
Tax Increment Attributable to Various Taxing Jurisdictions

Other 6.011 4.1 3,631
TOTAL 149.551 100.0 $ 90,300
' W. Annual Reports Pursuant to section 469.175, subd. 6 of the TIF Act, the City
must file a financial report by July 1 each year regarding TIF District No. 5 -1. The report shall
be filed with the school board, the county board and the state auditor. The report to be filed by
' the City shall be in accordance with the form specified by the state auditor and shall include the
following information:
' 1. the original tax capacity of TIF District No. 5 -1;

' Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes section 469.175, subd. 2a, please note that the city of Chanhassen
proposes to create a housing tax increment financing project within your district. The project is
being proposed by Rottlund Homes and will be know as North Bay. It is located on the north
' shore of Lake Riley off of Lyman Boulevard. The project will include 75 owner occupied
townhomes with approximately one -half of them priced at or below $115,000 to meet the
Metropolitan Council's Livable Communities Program for affordable housing. Chanhassen
' proposes to create a tax increment financing district in order to write -down the cost of land and
other infrastructure improvements in order to keep the price of these units affordable.
' A public hearing on the proposed tax increment district is scheduled before the Chanhassen city
council on June 24, 1996. A copy of the TIF plan will be sent to the county and school district
30 days in advance of the hearing. In the meantime, we would be happy to meet with you to
' discuss the proposed district and would welcome any comments that you may have regarding the
matter. Please feel free to give Mr. Todd Gerhardt or me a call. Mr. Gerhardt's number is 937-

therefore necessary.
