Manager' s Comment: The primary purpose of the amendment, from a
City standpoint, is to accelerate the repayment of costs asso-
ciated with the construction of Audubon Road. The plan does not
consider any form of land write-down costs within the project
area. However, a reduction of special assessments, using up to
three years of taxes generated from new construction, is included
in the plan. To this extent, the proposed expansion would con-
form with tax increment policies currently being applied within
the business park.
It should be noted that this is an Economic Development District. 1
Accordingly, any reduction agreements, proposed expenditures ,
etc. , rest solely with the City Council.

BE IT RESOLVED By the City Council (the Council) of the City of
Chanhassen, Minnesota (the City) as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
' 1.01. On October 10, 1988, the City adopted a Development Program for
Development District No. 2 and a Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment
Financing District No. 2-1 therein, all pursuant to and in accordance with
' Minnesota Statutes Section 469.124 through 469.134 and Minnesota Statutes
Sections 469.174 through 469.179.
' 1.02. It has been proposed that the City expand the boundaries of
Development District No. 2 and of Tax Increment Financing District No. 2-1.
1.03. The Council has investigated the facts and has caused to be prepared
' a modified Development Program for Development District No. 2, describing the
additional actions to be undertaken by the City to aid the development of property
within Development District No. 2, and has caused to be prepared a modified Tax
' Increment Financing Plan describing the specific acts to be taken to assist
development within the expanded boundaries of Tax Increment Financing District
No. 2-1.
' 1.04. The City has performed all actions required by law to be performed
prior to the enlargement of Development District No. 2 and of Tax Increment
Financing District No. 2-1 and the adoption of a modified Development Program
' and Tax Increment Financing Plan relating thereto, including, but not limited to,
notification of Carver County and Independent School District No. 112; a review by
the City planning commission of the modified Development Program for
' Development District No. 2 and the modified Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax
Increment Financing District No. 2-1 for their consistency with the general plans
for development of the City; and holding a public hearing regarding the modified
Program and the Plan upon such notice as is required by law.
' 1.05. The modified Development Program and Tax Increment Financing
Plan are contained in a document entitled "Modified Development Program,
f
r
r Development District No. 2 and Modified Tax Increment Financing Plan, Tax
Increment Financing District No. 2-1, City of Chanhassen, Minnesota," dated
May 22, 1989, and on file in the office of the City Manager.
' 1.06. The City Council has fully reviewed the contents of the modified
Development Program and Tax Increment Financing Plan and has on this date
r conducted a public hearing thereon at which the views of all interested persons
were heard.
Section 2. Findings Related to the Expansion of Development District No. 2
' 2.01. The Council hereby finds that the expansion of Development District
No. 2 is intended, and in the judgment of the Council, its effect will be to provide
r an impetus for additional industrial development in the City, increase employment,
and otherwise promote the public purposes and objectives specified in the modified
Development Program.
' 2.02. It is further found and determined that:
a) The land added to Development District No. 2 would not be made
' available for development without the public intervention and
financial assistance described in the modified Development Program
and Tax Increment Financing Plan;
' b) The modified Development Program will afford maximum
opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole,
' for the development of the District by private enterprise; and
c) In accordance with the findings of the planning commission, the
modified Development Program conforms to the general plan for
' development of the City as set forth in the City's comprehensive
plan.
' Section 3. Findings Related to the Expansion of Tax Increment Financing
District No. 2-1.
' 3.01. It is the opinion of the Council that development of the properties
included within the expanded boundaries of Tax Increment Financing District No.
2-1 would not reasonably be expected to occur solely through private investment
within the reasonably foreseeable future due to the lack of an adequate access road
and that the use of tax increment financing is therefore necessary.
3.02. The Council finds that the modified Tax Increment Financing Plan for
' Tax Increment Financing District No. 2-1 conforms to the general plan for
development of the City, based upon the recommendations of the planning
corn mission.
r 3.03. The Council finds that the modified Tax Increment Financing Plan for
Tax Increment Financing District No. 2-1 will afford maximum opportunity,
consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for development of the
expanded District by private enterprise.
3.04. The Council further finds that the enlargement of Tax Increment
Financing District No. 2-1 is intended, and in the judgment of the Council, its
effect will be to promote the public purposes and accomplish the objectives
specified in the modified Tax Increment Financing Plan.

' 3.05. The City Council has relied upon the opinions and recommendations of
its staff and planning commission and the personal knowledge of the members of
the council in reaching its conclusions regarding the expansion of Tax Increment
Financing District No. 2-1.
3.06. The City Council hereby reaffirms its finding that Tax Increment
Financing District No. 2-1 is an economic development tax increment financing
district within the meaning of Minnesota Statutes Section 469.174, Subd. 12.
Section 4. Approval of the Modified Development Program and Tax
Increment Financing Plan.

and the modified Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing
District No. 2-1 are hereby approved and adopted.

' Increment Financing District No. 2-1 are described in the modified Development
Program and modified Tax Increment Financing Plan therefor and are incorporated
herein by reference.
4.03. The City elects to be governed by Minnesota Statutes Section 469.177,
Subd. 3 with regard to fiscal disparities for expanded Tax Increment Financing
' District No. 2-1.

copy of this resolution together with a certified copy of the modified Development
' Program and Tax Increment Financing Plan to the auditor of Carver County with a
request that the original tax capacity of the property hereby added to Tax
Increment Financing District No. 2-1 be certified to the City pursuant to Section

1 C. Statement of Objectives
The City seeks to achieve the following objectives through
Ithe Development Program:
1 . promote and secure the prompt development of property
in Development District No. 2 in a manner consistent
II with the Comprehensive Plan and with minimal adverse
impact on the environment, which property is currently
less productive because of the lack of proper utili-
' zation and lack of investment, thus promoting and
securing the development of other land in the City;
2 . promote and secure additional employment opportunities
11 within Development District No. 2 and the City for
residents of the City and the surrounding area,
thereby improving living standards and preventing
I unemployment and the loss of skilled labor and other
human resources in the City;
I 3 . secure the increase of property subject to taxation by
the City, county, school district , and other taxing
jurisdictions in order to better enable such entities
to pay for public improvements and governmental
Iservices and programs required to be provided by them;
I 4 . secure the construction and provide moneys for the
payment of the cost of public activities or improve-
ments in Development District No. 2 , including
I2
I/
improvements to Audubon Road and the construction of
Audubon Court, which are necessary for the orderly and
1 beneficial development of the Development District;
and
1 5. promote the concentration of appropriate development
within Development District No. 2 in order to maintain
the area in a manner consistent with its significance
' to the City.
D. Environmental Controls
It is anticipated that no development within the
Development District will present major environmental concerns .
All City actions, public improvements and private development
1 will be carried out in a manner which will comply with
applicable environmental standards .
E. Open Space to be Created
1 Any open space within the Development District will be
created in accordance with the development controls of the City.
F. Public Facilities to be Constructed
' Public facilities constructed within the Development Dis-
trict will be financially feasible and compatible with the
City ' s long range development plans. Public improvements
proposed within Development District No. 2 include upgrading of
Audubon Road from State Highway No. 5 to Lyman Boulevard. The
improvements to Audubon Road from State Highway No. 5 south to
the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific Railroad tracks will
' be the first phase of the project . Improvement of Audubon Road
from the railroad tracks south to Lyman Boulevard will occur in
the second phase.
' In addition, the City proposes to construct Audubon Court
westerly from Audubon Road. Audubon Court will provide access
to the newly created lots to the south of the McGlynn
1 development.
G. Proposed Reuse of Property
' It is not currently anticipated that any property will be
acquired in connection with the proposed development within
Development District No. 2 . Future proposals for the use of
property to be acquired by the City must be consistent with
Development Program objectives and financially feasible. Prior
to acquisition of any property for reuse by a private developer ,
' the City Council may require a development contract and other
guarantees to ensure that sufficient tax increment or other
funds will be available to repay the cost associated with the
' 3
1

TIF District and may create additional TIF Districts to finance
development activities . Roadway improvement costs which will be
' incurred in Development District No. 2 will be paid through the

but accepts its responsibility for providing for relocation
' pursuant to Section 469 . 133 of the City Development District
Act. If relocation is necessary, provisions will be made in
accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Sections 117 . 50 through

' Maintenance and operation of the public improvements will
be the responsibility of the Administrator of Development
District No. 2 . Each year the Administrator will submit to the
' City Council 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 City Development District Act; provided, however ,
that such powers may only be exercised at the direction of the
City Council. No action taken by the Administrator shall be
effective without authorization by the City Council.

Pursuant to Section 469 . 177 , Subd. 1 of the TIF Act, each
' year the Carver county auditor will measure the increase or
decrease in the total tax capacity of the property. Any year in
which there is an increase in total tax capacity of property
' within the TIF District, an increment will be payable to the
City. Any year in which the total tax capacity is below the
original tax capacity of all property within TIF District No. 2-
1, no increment will be payable to the City.
' 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. 2-1 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;
34 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; or
4 . any change in tax classification under Minnesota
Statutes Section 273 . 13 of property after it has been
added to the TIF District .
' In addition, each year the auditor shall add to the
original tax capacity of TIF District No. 2-1 an amount equal to
the original tax capacity for the preceding year multiplied by
' the average percentage increase in tax capacity of all property
within the TIF District during the preceding five years.
T. Estimate of Captured Tax Capacity.
Pursuant to Sections 469 . 175, Subd. 1 and 469 . 177 , Subd. 2
of the TIF Act, the estimated captured tax capacity of the
' property within the enlarged boundaries of TIF District No. 2-1
will be $207 ,000 upon full development . The captured tax
capacity was estimated in the following manner :
10
additional tax increment bonds to pay for the construction of
Audubon Court.- Costs for the construction of Audubon Court will
' be met by bonds sold pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429
and will be assessed against benefitted properties .
S. Original Tax Capacity.
Pursuant to Section 469 . 177, Subd. 1 of the TIF Act, each
year the Carver county auditor will measure the increase or
' decrease in the total tax capacity of the property. Any year in
which there is an increase in total tax capacity of property
within the TIF District, an increment will be payable to the
' City. Any year in which the total tax capacity is below the
original tax capacity of all property within TIF District No. 2-
1, no increment will be payable to the City.
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. 2-1 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;
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; or
4. any change in tax classification under Minnesota
' Statutes Section 273 . 13 of property after it has been
added to the TIF District.
In addition, each year the auditor shall add to the
original tax capacity of TIF District No. 2-1 an amount equal to
the original tax capacity for the preceding year multiplied by
the average percentage increase in tax capacity of all property
' within the TIF District during the preceding five years.
T. Estimate of Captured Tax Capacity.
Pursuant to Sections 469 . 175, Subd. 1 and 469 . 177 , Subd. 2
of the TIF Act, the estimated captured tax capacity of the
property within the enlarged boundaries of TIF District No. 2-1
will be $207 ,000 upon full development. The captured tax
capacity was estimated in the following manner :

Original Tax Capacity 20 , 000
ICaptured Tax Capacity $ 207 ,000
Pursuant to Section 469 . 177 , Subd. 2 of the TIF Act, it is
I found and declared that all of the captured tax capacity
generated by TIF District No. 2-1 is necessary to finance or
otherwise make permissible expenditures authorized by Section
469 . 176, Subd. 4 of the TIF Act .
IIU. Duration of the TIF District .
I In accordance with Section 469 . 176 , Subd. 1 of the TIF Act,
the City may continue to receive TIF payments until eight years
from the date of the receipt of the first increment or 10 years
I from the date of the approval of the TIF Plan, whichever occurs
first .
It is likely that the City will request that the Carver
I county auditor retain the increment payable in 1990 . The reason
for this request is that the City anticipates that the 1990
increment will be a partial one and it wishes to preserve its
Istatutory right to receive eight years of full increment .
V. Estimates of Impact on Other Taxing Jurisdiction.
IIt is anticipated that $207,000 in increment will be cap-
tured annually from the property being added to TIF District No.
2-1 as a result of this modification after calculation of the
II fiscal disparities contribution. Of this amount, approximately
the following amounts would have gone to the taxing
jurisdictions:
ITax Jurisdiction Tax Increment
City of Chanhassen $ 43 , 200
I Carver County $ 62 , 400
Independent School District
No. 112 $ 95, 400
IOther $ 6, 000
However , the City believes that the actual impact on all
I taxing jurisdiction is zero because, in the City ' s opinion, no
development is likely to occur on the property without public
assistance.

Re: Modification of Tax Increment District
Dear Mr. Ostlund:
Attached you will find an estimate by the City of Chanhassen
regarding the fiscal and econo_nic implications regarding the
modification of Development District No. 2 and Tax Increment
Financing District No. 2-1. The modification to this plan speci-
fically deals with expanding the Tax Increment District
boundaries to include a 20 acre subdivision ( see Attachment #1) .
The City of Chanhassen understands chat tax increment districts
are not readily received by counties and school districts;
however, the increment generated from this development will
solely be used to reduce the costs associated with the public
improvements of Audubon Court.
The Chanhassen City Council has scheduled a public hearing for
Monday, May 22, 1989 at 7 : 30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at City
Hall. The purpose of this hearing is to receive public comments
on the adoption of the modification of Development District No. 2
and Tax Increment Financing District No. 2-1 ( see Attachment #2) .
The City of Chanhassen has always worked well with the School
District and County in the past and your input on this plan is
very important.
I would like to provide our City Council with your written com-
ments about the proposed plan in my report for the May 22nd public
hearing. If you need any additional information on the proposed
plan or the project, please do not hesitate to call me. I would
also like the opportunity to meet with the School Board at their
