administration, collection, and enforcement of the tax authorized
under this subdivision. The tax imposed under this subdivision is in
addition to any local sales and use tax imposed under any other

Subd. 2. Use of sales and use tax revenues. The revenues
derived from the tax authorized under subdivision 1 must be used by
the city of Chanhassen to pay the costs of collecting and
administering the tax and paying for up to $40,000,000 for
construction costs of the Avienda Recreational Facility, including
securing and paying debt service on bonds issued to finance all or
part of the project.
Subd. 3. Bonding authority. (a) The city of Chanhassen
may issue bonds under Minnesota Statutes, chapter 475, to finance
all or a portion of the costs of the projects authorized in subdivision
2. The aggregate principal amount of bonds issued under this

applied to the payment of the costs of issuing the bonds.
(b) The bonds may be paid from or secured by any funds
available to the city of Chanhassen, including the tax authorized

not subject to Minnesota Statutes, sections 275.60 and 275.61.
(c) The bonds are not included in computing any debt

Statutes, section 297A.99, subdivision 12, the tax imposed under

amount received from the tax is sufficient to pay for the project costs
authorized under subdivision 2, plus an amount sufficient to pay the
costs related to issuance of any bonds authorized under subdivision
3, including interest on the bonds. Except as otherwise provided in
Minnesota Statutes, section 297A.99, subdivision 3, paragraph (f),
any funds remaining after payment of the allowed costs due to the
timing of the termination of the tax under Minnesota Statutes,
section 297A.99, subdivision 12, must be placed in the general fund
of the city. The tax imposed under subdivision 1 may expire at an
earlier time if the city so determines by ordinance.
