Re: Chanhassen Bowl- TIF Issue
Dear Ms. Myrold:
We have been asked to comment on the effect of the foregone tax increment financing (TIF)
income from delinquencies during the period 1991 through 1995 caused by a bankruptcy in the
City of Chanhassen's Downtown TIF District NO.1. This district, in conjunction with special
assessment income, provided funding for numerous outstanding City general obligation bond
issues. These bond issues include both tax increment and improvement bonds, which were or
are outstanding during the delinquency period, some of which continue to be outstanding. The
City made timely payment on all relevant bond issues during this time period. To the extent
that anticipated TIF revenues were insufficient to fund their portion of scheduled debt service,
special assessment and other available revenues were used to supplement these delinquent
revenues. The City is now examining a cash flow scenario for this district, which forecasts
cash flow deficiencies. These forecasted cash flow deficiencies would be mitigated in part had
the City received timely payment of these de'inq~ent T!F revenues.
Please feel free to contact us if we can be of any further assistance.

Approve Acquisition of Land for Water Supply Well No.8; Authorize Preparation
of Plans and Specifications for Drilling Contract - Project No. 97-4
/
Last spring, consistent with the Comprehensive Water Supply Plan, the City Council authorized
test drilling exploration work to begin for the siting of Water Supply Well No.8. The desired
location for this new well was in the high pressure zone somewhere between Galpin Boulevard
and Trunk Highway 41 north of Trunk Highway 5. Since the City did not own any property in
this region which would also meet the criteria necessary for siting the well, the search began for a
f~vorable s~te to acquire.
During the summer of 1997, the Highover subdivision located immediately south of Lake Lucy
Road and east of Trunk Highway 41 was platted and the construction of the improvements
commenced. Since it is often times more feasible to integrate a well site in a developing
neighborhood than retrofitting into an existing one, and given that this subdivision is located a
desirable distance from Well No.7, staff focused their efforts on locating a site within the
Highover subdivision. The developer of the Highover subdivision, Mr. Jerome Carlson, gave the
City permission to conduct test drilling exploration on the site to verify that indeed the geologic
conditions were favorable for siting a Jordan aquifer well. The test boring, which was completed
in September, indicates that the Highover site is a good location for a Jordan aquifer well.
In November, staff received a price list from the developer indicating the marketing prices of all
the lots in the development. Lot prices ranged from a low of $74,000 to a high of $144,000. The
lot prices were higher than anticipated, therefore, staff began to brainstorm for alternatives within
the subdivision. Using the criteria that the new well site should be in a discrete, accessible, and
economical location, the focm; narrowed to Lot 2, Block 4. This lot has a gross area of 31,300
square feet. It has been graded for a buildable pad on the eastern half of the lot fronting the new
internal city street, with the western half containing a significant slope down to the Trunk
Highway 41 right-of-way. The west half of this lot also has an old existing "field access"
driveway from Trunk Highway 41. Based on the lot size, topographic features, and the existing
access to Trunk Highway 41, it became apparent that Lot 2, Block 4 could be subdivided into two
lots with the westerly (new created) lot to be purchased by the City for the well site.

This scenario has some ideal characteristics being that the ground elevation for the well site would
be some 17 feet lower than the home to be built on the eastern half of the subdivided lot, and the
well site would have its own individual access from Trunk Highway 41, thus, keeping the well site
as a separate, individual, and discrete feature from the rest of the subdivision. This proposal may
require a variance to the well lot size being 13,300 square feet. Staff has also spoken to MnDOT
officials who indicated that they would permit the existing field access to be improved to a paved
driveway exclusively for the well house.
Staff has met with Mr. Carlson on siteto discuss the proposal and has received favorable
response. Mr. Carlson has agreed to a purchase price for the subdivided lot of $30,000 plus
agreed upon a landscaping plan for the well site which would provide natural year-round tree
screening for the higher elevated adjacent lots which would have views down on to the well site.
The landscaping plan is-estimated to cost approximately $15,000. As was done with Well No.7
located in the Brenden Pond subdivision, the City would be responsible for administrating and the
costs associated with subdividing Lot 2, Block 4. The Fund 710 (sewer and expansion) of the
approved 1998 budget allocated $50,000 for purchasing the land for Well No.8. With this
proposal, the overall cost for the well site is anticipated to be some $30,000 to $35,000 less than
acquiring and developing the least expensive existing lot in the development.
In conclusion, it is believed that the splitting of Lot 2, Block 4 into two lots for which the
westerly lot would be the location of new Well No.8, is an ideal scenario since this would meet
the three key criteria of, discreteness (new lot would be located in the least inhibiting area of the
subdivision), good access (exclusive from Trunk Highway 4 1), and economical (nearly 50% of the
cost of developing on an existing lot in the development). Therefore, it is recommended that the
City Council authorize staff to initiate the subdivision of Lot 2, Block 4 into two lots, acquire the
newly created westerly lot for Well No.8 at a purchase price of $30,000 plus the agreed upon
year-round landscape screening plan, all of which are conditioned upon obtaining an approved lot
split of Lot 2, Block 4, Highover Addition, and be it further recommended that the City Council
authorize Bonestroo & Associates to prepare the plans for the drilling contract portion of the
project.
