REQUEST FOR TIF ASSISTANCE~ EDEN TRACE CORPORATION.
..
Ashworth: Thank you Mr. Chair. Staff's been meeting with'the representafiv'es-ofEden Trace.
We're very excited about the proposal. It provides an'opportunity to bring a number of small
businesses into the community. The development's located north of proposed Lake Drive, south
of the existing business park. It will compliment our existing business park tremendously. The
developer has asked whether or not TIF could be considered for theproject. Staff stated that we
would make that recommendation and we would do it in light of the fact that it appeared that the
proposal met the guidelines that had previously been set by the EDA Or whether you would
consider a TIF project or not. Specifically the project cannot go forward without the construction
of Lake Drive. Lake Drive represents a major roadway for the city of Chanhassen. The roadway,
without the roadway the housing project that's currently owned by Mr. patton, which is south of
Lake Drive, cannot be a reality. And third, the construction of the roadway is going to involve a
lot of public costs in that there's a large frontage on the roadway by a pond that lies on the west
end. A lot of this, if you look to the map in the back you can kind of follow what I'm saying. As
well as city park. If not done by TIF, those would become general obligation dollam The EDA
has supported the use of tax increment only to the extent that it's solely used to reduce special
assessment costs. EDA no longer will consider land write downs, soil corrections, those kinds of
things. In this particular instance, the developer himself would not be receiving any direct
benefit. A potential buyer of any of those lots would see the special assessments against them.
Therefore he cannot really increase his costs recognizing that that is a total cost of the lot. On the
other side of the coin, whichever smaller firm comin.' g in would be made aware of the fact that
they could see those special assessments for their particular business written down through the
EDA's TIF policies. I don't know where I was, fourth, fifth. This project should produce a
strong economic vitality for the City. Right now we've been going through a process of
continuing dwindling residential lots. We haven't seen near as much construction on residential.
It's not hurt us in terms of permit revenue and permit activity but within, if it continues the
current trend it will within 1 or 2 years whereas the commercial-industrial type of activity has
continued to be strong and is one of the primary reasons that our overall revenues have stayed the
way they have. Finally, and I'm able atthis point to give two reports at one time and that is that
tax increment pooling, we did do a new nm. We really dodged the bullet on this one and that is
we've got, here are the projections that were used by...when we did a refunding earlier, well
during 1988...We had anticipated that this would be much more severe than what it turned out to
be. When that.., auditor's office I sampled about 40 parcels and' found that in'almost all cases
property taxes were being reduced by between 12% and 14% fo3 1999. That would have. stayed'
tree and you look at some of the numbers as far as the tax increment collected. When I wrote my
report approximately a week ago we were looking at like say year 2000 where you have
increment of $5,376,000.00, or 1999, $5,178,000.00. Those figures being reduced by anywhere
Economic Development Authority - Sanuary 28, 1999
from $500,000.00 to $700,000.00 per y .e~..,- If that were the case the overall deficit Would have'
ehan~ from the $2,555,000.00 shown unde~ the 2004 scenario to woll over $5 milli'on. I did, I
was successful today in getting from Laurie the total tax capa~ty for the TIF district. As it turns
out, we did see a significant increase in new cons~0n and as a're~ult, the figure shown for the
$5 million, let's say $178,000.00 for 1999 is almost right on the mark with the figure that we're
looking at right now for 1999 is $5,204,000.00. About $.20,000.00 b~r than what's shown
there. 2000 should be on line. What it comes down to is we're still loolcing to an approx/nmte '
2.7 million dollar deficit. At this point in time we, our consultants are. advising us to approach
the legislature because they created the problem which is really one of the next items on the
agenda, seeking your authorization to. allow Smffto do that. As really the first line of defense to'
solve that 2.7 million dollar problem. The' alternative with failure of the legislature to consider
our request would be to take from some other district. The logical district would be the
Hennepin County district. The problem with that is raiding dollars out of there potentially hurts
our ability to construct Highway 101, and I think that that has remained as a high priority for the
city council and EDA. Accordingly the creation of this district and not providing incentive
dollars back to the developer provides you with a third alternative means by which to cover that
$2.7 deficit while still ensuring that we had monies available tO. carry out the construction of 101.
In conclusion staff is recommendi/lg that the EDA authorize staff tb prepare a TIF plan. It would
be brought back to you. If you approved it we would then send it to the various agencies and
carry out the necessary public hearings to in fact make it a reality. And again this report basically
is the same report that I'd be giving for the authorization to have staff meet with the slate
legislature and try to get them to help solve tha/$2.7 million problem. With that staff stands
ready for any questions.
Boyle:
Bohn:
Jim, would you like to start?
I have no questions.
Boyle: Nancy'?
Mancino: Don, when you come back with a plan will it include the future housing? That
development on the south side of the road is zoned high density, correct? So will Eden Trace
come back with a plan for, are. they going to develop any high density housing?'
Ashworth: At this point in time there's no intent by F_zien Trace to attempt to do that. I don't
know how much they're into the housing .... he's not here?
Mancino: ...but when you come back with a plan-you can show how it's applicable'to the
affordable housing...
-.
·
· Boyle: Mark, do you have any questions? - .
.
·
· .
Engel: Well the question, and Nancy touched on it already .wlien I was reading about it was the
affordable housing component~ I was curious what that might'lbok like. But I guess it doesn't
look like we've, you already got the answer to that. .. . .
..
Economic Development Authority- Janua~ 28, 1999
Mancino: We really haven't talked about it at all. I just wanted to see how it works in the tax
increment district.
Ashworth: It looks like R-12.
Mancino: And then the city park is the Sun,et Ridge Park that's already there and is already .
zoned and is part of our comprehensive plan...which is fight here. It's not a newly created park.
.
·
Engel: Yeah, and that's the one, I'm familiar with that one. They've got swing sets and a
baseball diamond on it already. I'm familiar'withit.
Mancino: I have one last question. Don, the piece that's...
Gerhardt: You've got the interceptor that' goes through a portion of that. So the interceptor
which is probably 100 feet, 200 feet.
Ashworth: That's fight. There is the strip 0fproperty that's owned by the city that lies between
there and then on the other side of that. is the Pat Paid property. That:s the real high hill up there.
Mancino:... -'
Gerhardt: A farmer still farms part Of the land up there. And he has no long range plans to
develop that. Or short range plans to develop it.
Mancino: So there would be, if we put a road in there, they would be assessed, that property
would be assessed?
Ashworth: We assessed them for Powers Boulevard with the interceding parcel owned by the
city. I don't see a way which you could assess Mr. Pahl. He's the original owner of NordieTrak
and really doesn't need a lot of money. -.
Gerhardt: Direct access I would believe off of Lake Drive.
Ashworth: He has no frontage on Lake Drive.
Boyle: Questions?
Jansen: I think mine are probably premature. I guess I'm looking at the faci that we're referring
to the assessment for the road and what that would be. I gues's my question is you know what
kind of dollars are we looking at for that city park.frontage that you're referring to md the
drainage pond. But I went back in my prior records and did we just approve the feasibility, study
for this piece of Lake Drive back on 12-147
Ashworth: Correct.
Economic Development Authority - January 28;- 1999.-
Jansen: And that's where we'll get more the dollar amounts as to what we're actually talking
about.
Ashworth: Righ~
Jansen: Okay. That was my big question was'what'kind of dollars we were talking about being
assessed.
Boyle: Mark?
Senn: Don is this in District 1 or not now?
·
-.
.
Ashworth: It would have to be decertified out of District 1 so the answer'is yes. It currently is in
I.
Senn: Okay, and as we decertify it of 1, what ramifications does that have to 17
Ashworth: Right now it's shown really as raw land value and I~ll have that answer but, I will
provide that answer for you. I cannot give it to you right now.'
Senn: Okay, so what you're effectively pr0p0~hig i~ to decerfify this', out Of district 1, set-up a -
separate district as what, pay as you go or bonding7 .
Ashworth: I don't know of any other way to do it-than to do the bonding portion.
Gerhardt: The payments would be pay as you go with each of the individual tenants. You would
have to bond to build Lake Drive and then we would hope that this would be 100% assessed. So
the city would finance the construction of Lake Drive and assess each of the benefiting property
owners. And then through our special assessment reduction program, each of the businesses
could come in and apply for the half year worth of taxes over 3 years, to write down'those
assessments against each of the individual propefdes...
- .
Senn: No other questions at this time. I'll ha~/e-the rest in comments.
Boyle: Okay. Are there any further questions before I ask for a mofi6n? Therefore I'd like to
have a motion that we authorize staff to prepare an economic development plan that would
encompass the Eden Trace development, including those parge..ls abutting the soufli side Of Lake
.
o
.
·
Senn: Before we have a motion I guess. I'd ~ to g~. into some ~sion, .lx~u~e we lmven't
had any yet. .'
.
·
..
Boyle: Okay. ..
Economic Development Authority -' JanuarY. 28, 1999
Senn: I don't want to just jump to me if anybody else.
Boyle: Oh, go fight ahead. Please.
Senn: As far as the creation of this district goes, I think before we can really take an action on
saying we'd create this district, I think we need to fully understand the ramifications of the
existing district through the decertifieation process as it relates', like I say in the existing district.
We have enough problems there. We don't need to.compound them in.' any way, Shape or form
by actions on this district. As far as the overall project goes', I .mean if you take the whole
concept in total, you know I think this looks like overall a good project but in my mind the reason
it's overall a good project and deserving of a TIF. lobk is the housing. The affordable housing
and it seems to me if we're going to create a district here, or a TIF District here, I think what I'd
like to see is a contractual commitments up front for the affordable housing rather than
commitments up front for more industrial with the future promise of maybe some housing, which
is what we've got now. Under at least the prop~.sed scenario. I think it's a big assumption to
assume there will be affordable housing there simply because of the zoning. One thing I guess I
want to take exception with in here is the point that the developer himself would receive zero
benefits from our authorizing a special assessment dislxict. I mean that, you know if I need to go
to the black board that's not true, I'll show you. I mean essentially when you create a special
assessment district, we're paying the special assessments. So the developer charges. $2.00 a
square foot for the land and says you know it's fully improved land so pay $2.00 a square foot for
it. Then you don't have any special assessment liability. If the person had special assessment
liability, the developer could only charge $1.00 a square foot for the land and the other dollar
would go from the owner to pay for special assessments. So the developer does benefit from
special assessment write down on the land because he doesn't change the market rate for the
land. I mean it's the same thing that's'going on Out'in Gateway fight now. Oateway's marketing
property at $2.25 a square foot up to $4.50 a square foot, based on it being fully improved, which
means municipal facilities and systems are there. And then you mm around and say okay and
here's the TIF that's how it will do it. They couldn't get that amount of money for that property
on a basis that somebody would have to come in and put the improvements in place. They could
get it if they paid for it out of their pocket and tamed around and charged the same price for the
land, but again that's a profit. Pure and simple. So I don't accept that rationale and argument in
here but the, you know coming kind of full circle around to me again the key issue in this area,
especially as far as that site goes given the very limited number of potential sites that we have,
and I'm going to say you know potential sites in a lot of different ways. Potential sites as it
relates to affordable housing. I mean affordable housing is not an unc0ntroversial issue. And .
where you put it is not an uncontroversial issue. Okay. This site is one of maybe a couple in the
entire city, two or three in the entire city that probably could be approached as affordable housing..
without a great deal of controversy. And to me that's the key element of the whole project even
going forward, or at least in terms of the interest of the city and that ought to be again like I say'
the contractual commitment up front. That'that be the project that we're funding and what we're
doing. And if there's something that comes in effectively off of the industrial to help us do that,
and to lend increment to that affordable homing, you know then I could see meshing the
industrial into it. But otherwise I don't see the benefits to the city. In doing that. And so I think
we should, I mean on this basis basically I guess the tree reality is~ the industrial will go aheM.
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
They'll make their money on the land. The land developer will'sell it off. We'll have industrial
there and we'll have a future housing site with absolutely no guarantees it will even end up being
affordable housing. Because there's .abs0' lutely nothing that could stop the owner fi'om going in
and developing market rate housing on it. Because we don't have any control over there. And
so I think that control ought to be put on up front witli the TIF project, with the affordable
housing contract in place so that's just my comments. :
Boyle: Any timber discussion?
Mancino: Don, can you talk a little bit about.the decettification and taking it out of the District
No. 1. What that will do to it or do you want'to come back with that information? --
.
.
Ashworth: I would prefer making sure that I'm correct in what I'm telling you. I think that
generally the property is probably being shown at $30,000.00 to $~40,000.00 an acre by Orlin
because it's really undeveloped. Times the total number of acres. I. would rather, get you the ' '.
correct information_
Mancino: Okay. And how does the development, the industrial development help the high
density and if we want to do affordable housing? '
Ashworth: Well'my first thought there would be one of, you ~m use the increment to write down
costs of improvements that can be shown to be directly of benefit to like the housing project.
And I think that's another good reason to do it as a public i .m?rovement project. Put the special
assessments against it and that's going to force the developer into doing something with the
property. The carrot can be dangled in front of him that basically says we will pay those costs if
you will take whatever portion of this pwject and make it affordable. The cost of the
assessments are so high that you cannot just simply sit there and sit on it. Right now he's been'
able to do that because he has not been able to access the property because there's been no road.
Once those assessments go on he will have to market it. Can I guarantee you that it won't go
market? No, but I think it's going to be a pretty good carrot to take and dangle in front of him to
make it affordable. Or some portion of it.
Senn: Help me out when you say him, who are you talking about?
Ashworth: Patton-
Senn: Okay, but I mean Eden Trace is doing, I mean F. Aen Trace has an option on the Redmond
parcel and they'll be the owner of that in developing the industrial: Mr. Patton'is doing, I mean
he owns the other parcel and at least from what I know has no intention of selling it at this time.
So I mean that would be under separate ownership and separate development and everything else
and will have nothing to do with the Eden Trace project.
..
.
Ashworth: Correct. But what I'm saying is, if you put S $500,000.00 to $700,000..00 assessment
against somebody, they simply cannot afford to continue to ..sit on the property. Espec. ially when
· .
Economic Development Authority -.January 28, 1999
they would then have the opportunity to access the property and to develop it which it currently
doesn't really have.
Senn: But isn't that a hell of a risk7- I mean the risk is yes, you are going to force him to develop
it but as what? There's absolutely no guaran~ this could be affordable hous'.mg. In fact fight
now in the current marketplace it would develop almost overnight in market rate housing.
Because there's such a demand for new market rate homing projects right now. In fact there's
...on the outskirts of town looking'for them fight now. Not for affordable housing but for market
rate housing. So I mean all you're doing is effectively creating the ide.~il situation for that to go
ahead and happen and we haven't accomplished.what we want to accomplish. I mean that's why
we created the policy we created. Harping on affordable housing as being the main stay, the
driving force, the way that we should be focusing the TIF.
. .
Mancino: Well absolutely but Don was talking about the carrot that would be there once it was
established.
Senn: And the carrot is.
Mancino: Just a minute, let him.
Ashworth: Todd and I will get a hold of Mr. Patton.' We've talked to him many times over the
years and I can assure you that as we start in the various hearing processes, he will assuredly be
in front of you and we will be providing updates' and he can take and say yes, we're kind of
agreeing with staff that we can do something or no, we can't. You know but I assure you he will
be in front of you before the whole process is completed. Before you authorize the project.
Boyle: I think we have to start somewhere with this and it seems to me the starting point is
putting a plan together coming back to the EDA with some sort of a plan and that's the stage that
we're at tonight. We either agree to have them go forward., as I understand it, and come back
with a plan or stymie it at this point and say no. We're not interested.
..
Senn: The plan that's being requested Gary only relates to industrial development for Eden
Trace. I have no other plan. I mean we have no other proposal even in front of us, or even being
suggested.
Boyle: Okay. Isn't that what we're asking?
Senn: So what I'm saying is it's more appropri.ate to wait until we have an affordable housing
proposal in front of us and then tie it all together and do it. Then we have true eontml'of the
situation and we can put tree carrots in and We can assure that it will happen..This way you'.re
never going to assure it happens. It's a real'crap shoot.. '
Boyle: You believe there should be another proposal coming forth before we put together an
economic development plan, is that what you're saying Mark7
Economic Development Authority -.January 28, 1999
Senn: I think if we are going to proceed with looking at a plan. to form a district, the driving
force to do that should be a proposed affordable housing project on the housing porti.on of this
site and it can include the other parcels too which are industrial parcels which can lend increment
in and help us put together a scenario we'd want to on an affordahle housing and overall district
project. And give us all the controls that we would want and achieve what we want tn achieve in
relationship to the affordable hous'mg..
Boyle: Do you have a comment on that Don?
..
Ashworth: Well I think what you have here is ki~ of a chicken and an egg situation. I mean-
face it, Mr. Patton has owned the land for at least 15 years that i,m aware of. I think 1978,
somewhere in there. That's closer to 20 years.' And has continued to talk about he really, can't do
anything without, with that because he doesn't have this road thing, otc. I think that moving
ahead with plans to show him we're going to move ahead with this whole road .thing, but we'd
like you as a partner. ! think we can get his attentio~ If by the time we get towards the point Of'
actually authorizing the project, and we don't have that agreexn. C~mt, then you as a group make a
decision, okay. DO we want to pull the plug at this point in time or does it look as though we're
going to be able to bring him to the plate or not?
Boyle: That's kind of the way I read it too I guess.
Mancino: I would too, the only clarity would be that I would feel uncomfortable with Eden
Trace you know we're kind of starting the project. and putting together a plan and I think that they
would know how important it is from our EDA and what we've decided tO. really focus on in
affordable housing, that that part of the' equation is extremely important and must be a
component of it. That is one of the major benefits for our city that we as Chanlmssen are really
focused on, is the affordable housing for our city as we see new development, re~il, low wage
development coming in and we need to house that part of our city. -So the component for it to
work right may need the industrial development but also it is as equally important to have the
high density. I think we need to talk about pe~,entages here because I think there may be
different feelings philosophically when we do affordahle and high density. Is it 20%, etc. But I
wouldn't want F. xien Trace to feel that we would go ahead not knowing or not focusing on that
affordable housing part. Does that sound?.
Bohn: Yeah...
Mancino: And I don't know if there are partner/or ~etworking we can start that action and get
that...
(There was a tape change at this point in the discussion.. ) ...'

development plan that would encompass the Eden Trace development, including those
parcels abutting the south side of Lake Drive. Once the plan is complete, staff will

resubmit such to the EDA for approval of initiating the public hearing process. All voted
in favor and the motion carried.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION FOR 1999 LEGISLATIVE WORK.
Ashworth: ...$76,000.00. 2001 is showing an increment of $2,446,000.00.
Maneino: How come it drops so much from that7
Ashworth: That's because you're only collecthag a partial during that 20011 2 and 3 and it
represents the bonds that were outstanding prior to May of 1988. If we were able, and this time I
am correct in '88 and not '98. But if we were able to collect the full increment for those three
years, we would have more than sufficient dollars to pay off that $2.7 million deficit.
Mancino: How come we can only collect half?
Ashworth: Because we can only collect for bonds that were outstanding prior to May of 1988
that went beyond the 2000 timeframe. So we will Collect the full increment, and it doesn't really
drop down to zero. In fact in the year 2001 we will be getting a check for let's say roughly 5
million 4. But as far as what we can use of that, the most we can use is the $2,446,000.00 and
here's the real sad kicker out of it and that is that almost the entire difference will be sent'via a
check to School District #112 and the following year the State of Minnesota Will reduce the
amount of aids to the school district by that same. Let's say we send them a check for $3 million
this year or in 2001. In 2002 the State aid formula will kick in and take the $3 million away from
them. So I mean it's not like gee, by us keeping this $3 million and helping to solve our problem
we're hurting the school district, we're not.
Mancino: Because it will reduce the school district, the contribution to the school district.
Boyle: That's fmc. Other questions?
Senn: So effectively are you asking for our authorization tonight to go to the legislature then and
seek their approval to allow collection of the increment for those three years? ·
Ashworth: We will bring back, each step in the process, as we're starting to get a feeling from
Ann Reston and Amber Rice-Scott and right on down the line, as to what wordage they may find
acceptable, we will bring that back to you and we will seek your authorization to continue in that
direction. You know if they say well no, we can't support getting the increment in this fashion
'but we can support another fashion, we'll then come back to you and say we're not getting
support if we went this direction but we are getting support if we go another direction.
Senn: Why are you choosing this route instead ofjust simply extending the district7
Ashworth: Oh, you mean to extend it for another yea_O :
10'
Economic Development Authority- January.28; 19~9
Senn: To go to the legislature and ask for extension of the district.
*.
Ashworth: That's another option. -. .. .- -'"
...
.
Senn: What I'm saying, why are you deciding bn this optio~ versus than
..
Ashworth: Well I only wanted to clarify, because these years we are collecting the'full increment
and you have continued to be an advocate of let's get this .thing over with as quickly as possible
so my natural conclusion is.
Senn: Use within what we've got.
Ashworth: Yes. Stay with what was already, the years we're already col'leering. A~ldng you to .
support. Going for one more year. Maybe it isn't palatable.
Mancino: I'd rather do it early.
Senn: You know under that scenario then, with the three years though, if it's a $2.5 million
problem, you've got it covered. What if it's .a $5. million problem? ..
.. -
Ashworth: I would anticipate, based on initial discussions with Ron Batty that the Suggested
wordage that the legislature will come back with would be the allowance for us to take and
collect that increment in those three years.. The difference between what I call full increment and
what is now partial, but only to the extent that it pays for existing bo .nded debt that has failed
because of actions of the State legislature. They will not allow us to do new pr?je~. They will
not allow us to consider, well I'd love to do the h~ry but they're not going to let you do that.
Senn: No, I understand that but in what you we~ Saying before, a~)rcling to your 'estima~,
taking full increment off these for the tht~ years and smffis going to bring in about $2.7 which
will more than solve the $2.5 problem. But if we have a $5 million problem, We're still going to
be sitting with a $2.3 million shortfall.

Mancino: Well then maybe we have to go back and ask for the extra year.
Senn: Well no but that's what I'm asking how...
· . . .
Mancino: Or the other option is tO take it out 0fthe council's paychecks.. " ..
. .
.
.
Senn: That would take a hundred years, to even get. close to it. But what I'm saying Don is you.-
can't go to the legislature once now and go back in three' years, and say you want,, oops we still '
have a problem. You've got to deal with it all at once now as you're going to the.legislature and
view the whole picture. So if it's a $5'million proble~ we need a solution that will take up the
$5 million problem. Not one which will just simply take up the $2.5 million problem..

Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
Ashworth: And I fully agree with you, and I hope you followed me in terms of the legislature's
only going to let us take care of whatever the problem is so the 2 ½ in my scenario, 5 in yours.
But let's add them up a little bit. 2001, 2 million 4. Well that's $3 million less than what we're
actually collecting. 2002, $4 million 2..That's a million, just say roughly a million more than
what was collected. So now we're up to $4 million. The next year's roughly $3 million. That's
another $2 ½ million. So if just taking my. solution; would take care of a $5 ½ million problem if
that truly were to occur, but I don't see where it's going to but'futura legislature could take an
reduce rates again.
Boyle: Any further questions7 Comments? Discussion7 ...
Senn: I'll move that we authorize staff to approach the legislature on extending TIF, or on
rewriting components of TIF District 1 to achieve, to see if we can obtain full increment during
the years 2001, 2 and 3 on the basis that any additional increment obtained throUgh that approval
would go to directly reduce only bonded indebtedness.
Mancino: I'll second that.
Boyle: Discussion?
Senn moved, Manclno seconded that the EDA approve the resolution authorizing Kennedy
& Graven to act on the EDA's behalf to request special legislation to extend the Hfe of TIF
District No. 1 to obtain full increment during the years 2001, 2002, and 2003 on the basis
that any additional increment obtained through this approval would go to directly reduce
only bonded indebtedness. All voted in favor, except Labatt who abstained, and the motion
carried.
Labatt: I wanted to abstain just...whole discussion.
Mancino: Can I just ask one question? Don, when do you think that will be?
Ashworth: Well we're starting to make contacts right now. We've already Contacted Oliver and
Workman to alert them to the problem. I'm guessing immediately. And many, we're not alone.
I mean there's.
Mancino: Oh I know.
Ashworth: There's a number of other cities that are akeady over there and going througE We
were at a deficit position because Carver County is so much slower so I needed to present these
numbers to you so you would know what kind of a problem we have but I physically got the
phone call at 11:00 this morning and Laurie toldme, well Don.' Here's the number but I'm not '
real confident, we could have some minor adjustments. I said I don't care about minor
adjustments. I needed numbers for the EDA tonight so.

Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
Mancino: Well we appreciate th~ At the TEF sgrninar I went/o, ~ worn a lot'of Cities there,
and Councilman Senn was thoro, that they did say tint a lot of the cities hadn'.t figured out yet
you know what the deficit would be and the League of Minnesota Cities really hadn't he~crd '
much yet. So you're being proactive in bringing us there. Thank ypU.' "
Boyle: Thank you.
CONSIDER Tile ASSISTANCE FOR PHASE IH~ ENTERT~ PROSECT.
Boyle: Todd, are you going to brief us on this one?
~t: Sure. Mr. Chairman, EDA members. At 6ur last meeting there were several questions
brought up. Staff put an emphasis on that meeting to give you a bac~und on what I would say
are the planning type issues. Architectural style, parking layout, traffic, and uses. At this'
meeting we're going to concentrate on the numbers so what I'd like to do is to answer your
questions that were raised at the last meeting. Give some history on how this project all got
·
started, and then take some time and use the big board and show you the numbers that staff has '
come up with in this proposal. At our last meeting there was a question regarding the breakdown
of ownership for the proposed movie theater development. The oWnership is Bob Copeland, Ray
Mithun, Jr and Mike D.elaney. There was als0 a question that Mr. Copeland had'marked the TIF
application incorrectly and that thc applicant'had filed for bankmp~ and Mr. Copeland and his
partners have never been involved in a bankruptcy or loan default. As to the third question, I
explained in detail the public purpose of why the EDA should consider giving this project. In
your packet under Attachment #1, Mr. Copeland has gone through his analysis of why TIF
assistance should bc used for thi.~ .l~roject based on the public purpose guidelines under TIF laws.
Staff had also completed the advantages and disadvantages.of the project. Some of the
.
advantages that staffhad highlighted was the improved overall aesthetics of this area. Chaxenfly I'
have laid out a couple ofpictures of how the area looked here in the last couple of weeks and for
EDA members, if you haven't driven by there lately. Entrance to the city's night and weekend
activity and drawing over 250,000 patrons each year. You know with over 6,000. employees in
our business park, our restaurants and businesses do a very good job during the noon hour in '-
servicing, or being serviced by those employees in our business park. At night our downtown
area is a little slower and putting in additional theaters that would provide additional night
activity and drawing patrons to our downtown businesses. With the proposed project you would .
see an additional 10,000 square feet of additional retail that the city currently docan't have and
would provide services to our residents and businesseS. Providing TIF assistance may provide
for a higher qual/ty building than what our existing codes may provide. And improve the
utilization of the property. Currently right now it's used as a howling center and bar and with the
additional 10,000 square fcct of retail and the additional movies,-there can be a questi .on that we
already have 8 and 8 more you know, what benefit does that have betides bring/ng more people
to the downtown. So that's kind of an advantage/~~~ but definitely the 10,000 square
feet of additional retail would be an advantage. Each project would be a pay as you go without
sharing the tax increment from the Timber Lounge..and hotel expansion. I'll exp~ that in more
detail as I go up to the board and who how that can work. Some disadvantage to the project It
does need a substantial amount of economic investment on the EDA's behalf. A loss ofb0wling.

in the community as a recreational activity. There's no question in the original plan that having a
restaurant and a bowling center and a little bit of retail, it really lent itself to a true type.
entertainment situation. Increase in traffic Can be good for the patrons. Can be bad if this project
is really successful and that we may have to put a'signal out onto Market, additional costs'
associated with that. That's it. That's all I could come up with for advantages and disadvantages.
Right now I'd kind of like to go through the'numb.em unless the EDA members have any
questions on my preliminary report.
Boyle: Any questions at this time or should we let Todd go further?
Gerhardt: How we got to this point, started back approximately 6 years ago when we started
with the Highway 5 corridor group..The Highway'5 corddo, r group...to look at how can
Highway 5 develop in this community. What sites should we.preserve and with the assistance of
Bill Morrish from the University of Minnesota Landscape School, he came out and assisted us in
windows in the rooms and corridors to preserve along that highway and the group got on a bus
and drove up and down the corridor. They could see which of those creeks and tree lines that
they wanted to preserve. And one of the other things that that group highlighted as they were
driving up and down the corridor and as they sat out here at the intersection of Market and
Highway 5 was how unattractive the bowling alley and the back of the Dinner Theater and the
presence that showed to individuals sitting at that intersection. So through the efforts of
Bloomberg Company, Dan Dahlen, Lotus Realty and the HRA at that time, we sat down with the
owners to try to work out a deal where we could come in andpay for the necessary parking lot
improvements and facade improvements on the bowling alley...retail center. Frontier Building.
And as we moved along, this was all going to be one project. And with that, as we got into it
deeper and deeper, the bowling center with some of the issues of changing ownership and filing
bankruptcy led to, we had to start separating the projects individually. Bloomberg wanted to
work his... The movie theater wanted to get going right away and Dan Dahlen...was working
with Pauly's in trying to get his package together. So everybody wanted to kind of be treated
separately and we brought it back to the I-IRA and City Council and said yes. We could separate
these. Well, what also got separated in that process is that we got away from the original
architectural treatments that were originally approved. And everybody else thought that they
needed to do the improvements that would work for the tenants that they were working with and
that would fit in their budget. So where we're at now is, as you drive by out there, you can see
Bloomberg's retail space is starting to take shape. They've got the brick out there. They've got
the new windows in and starting to see the mansard go up and it's to me... The movie theater is
open. It's operational.
Mancino: It's got a sign.
Gerhardt: It has a sign.
Engel: Does it have all the letters working?
Gerhardt: It has the letters on the sign and Mr. Copeland feels that for him to stay a vital part in
the downtown area for the long term, he feels he needs 8 more theaters to stay up with what the
14
Economic Development Authority- Sanua~ 28, 1999.
market is doing. I don't know if that's correct or not but Mr. c0peland feeh it's important And
with that we encouraged Mr. Copeland to include retail as a part of it. This is a mixed typo use.
It's a mix proposed and we asked him that he include that and he has agreed to do that and that
he would do the retail out front with the...in concert with the movie theater. Now with that,
what I'd like to do is just explain to everybody that. hasn't been here since the be~rming of kind
of how tax increment, how this mx increment district got created. How the money flows from.
there and also how Mr. Copeland and I have talked over the last couple of months of how we
kind of changed the deal and how he wants to stand alone and take his own increment from both
of those.
Mancino: Todd could you include, Mr. Chair if thi~ is okay. Could you include one other thing.
Could you talk a little bit about two '.things that I'guess I'm getting old but a little bit about
parking and the, you know what we have done as a city to increase the parking and about the road
that would continue over the Bloombe~ property and how that would flow. Okay. At the end of
the money, the fiscal part if you could also talk about parking and kind of, I g~ very mixed up
who owns what as far as the parldng part and !mrq'ovements that have already been made just at
the end. Thank you.
Gerhardt: Well back in 19, I think it was 95. The HRA at that time agreed-to create a new tax
increment district. When you create a new tax increment district, you first have to decertify the
bowling center, the movie center phase I, hotel expamion, Timber Lounge and Bloomberg retail.
All those properties were included in the orig/nal downtown tax increment district and...we're
dealing with so what happened is that...took those parcels Out of that original downtown tax
increment district. What happens when you. do that is these properties in 1995, you established a
new base value. What that base value does is TimberLounge in 1995 was paying $19,000.00,
no. Timber Lounge was $6,000.00... The hotel expansion, before the hotel was here there was a
vacant piece of land and they were paying $2,901.00 in taxes. The retail, Bloomberg Companies.
This property .was paying $49,669.00 in taxes. The bowling center was pay/ng $67,000.00 in
taxes. The movie theater was paying $19,000.00... And so these dollar amounts were coming to
the downtown TIF district and that totaled $146,175.00. When we decertified that district this
money is now going to the school district. It's going to the county. It's going to'the city. And
it's going to other. This $146,000.00 is-now being paid to those jurisdictions. Now what's
happened since then is the Timber Lounge has remodeled and they are,
Mancino: Under percentages for school, .county, city is what the m)rmal percentage is. It's just
regular tax, property taxes7
Gerhardt: 50% school County, 30%.. City', 18%...and then 2% other. Timber Lounge is now
creating $19,057.00 in increment. Hotel expansion is ~ $64,904.00 in increment.
Bloomberg Companies will be creating $30,927.00. And movie theater Phase I will be
$40,458.00. The old plan the bowling center was going to Create $30,927.00. So that's a grand
total of $186,273.00. And with Mr. Copeland's proposed development, that has intensified the
use of that than what was originally propo~, with the restaurant, bowling center and'little bit of
retail. He will now be creating $105,000~00...s0 with that $.105,000.00 would, if he was to -
receive the $105,000.00 to write down. What we're' trying to aecompli~ here is the
15
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
improvements that are proposed for B10omberg Companies. What we're trying to pay off'is the
$360,000.00 worth of improvement forparking lot, landscaping and facade treatment for
Bloomberg. On the movie theater portion it was $540,000.00. And the bowling center it's
$665,000.00.
Senn: Well stick the other two in too. Hotel expansion and conference rooms. So you have the
whole picture.
· .
Gerhardt: Well, okay. Theirs are, it's three years of this. At this time it's three years.
Bohn: From '95.
Gerhardt: This times three years. This is roughly $60,000.00.
Engel: 58. 57,000.
Clayton Johnson: Are you on the Timber Lounge?
Gerhardt: Yes.
Clayton Johnson: What were you showing for tha~/
Mancino: Increment of 19.
Gerhardt: That has gone up this year.
Senn: What we're talking about is the incentive that went back to each project and it's three
years worth of increment which is approximately $60,000.00.
Mancino: ...60 for the Bloomberg was for what?
Gerhardt: It was to offset the facade 'unprovement here along the front, and the parking lot
improvements here.
Mancino: So 540.
Gerhardt: 540 was for facade improvements here, boardwalk. When I say facade...and parking
lot.
Mancino: And parking lot. And 6657
Gerhardt: 665, facade, boardwalk, par.king lot improvements.
Senn: That was in the original plan. -
16
Economic Development Authority - Sanumy 28, 1999
Gerhardt:
Mancino:
In the original plan.
Alright, thank you.
· .
CFhere was a tape change at this point in the discussiom)
Mancino: ...so we get that increase fix~m thc 18 to thc 25%.
Gerhardt: The increase referendum dollar amount would go to the school district...
Mancino: Okay. Let me ask you mother way. If Somebody Came. in, a '.diff~ applicant came
in and developed the bowling center privately/ Didn't want any money. 'How would that, the
taxes generated, would they be any different? Would the market value be any different than what
we're seeing here? I mean does that make sense7
Gerhardt: Does it intensify it more?
Mancino: Yeah. To intensify the use more.
Gerhardt: Yeah, I mean if you put some AAA.office stuff in there, y6u could.g~t the price up
there. You know some real class A office space would pay probably more than a movie theaters.
Retail space maybe like Byerly's would probably pay more.
Mancino:...trying to understand that.
Ashworth: If that were to happen then you'd have two choices. You could take those dollars
because you'd still be collecting them, and pay off any existing loans, notes that you have and
therefore collapse those early. Or take that particular parcel and decerfify it and put it right back
on the tax role immediately.
Gerhardt: Your two choices hcre...take these guys out of the equation and you take the-
increment from here and here and you pay Bloomberg off earlier, YOU could do a. couple of
things. You could take this and pay Mr. Copeland off eaHier or you could take this and there's
two little buildings over here on the back side of the Dinner Thoale~ that yOU haVen't dealt with
yet. And do something over there and try to encourage an office building to come in there. Or
you could just put these on thc tax rolls is another opti'on... So wha~ we do is come in, number
one we decertify this district and everything, came back on, you would come in here and say;.
Laurie down'at the auditor's office, we've decided to decer~ these three properties and we'd
like them back on tax rolls again. -.

Maucino: Does it cost us to keep d~f-ying? '- ' ' --
Gerhardt: Just attorney fees ..... "

Economic Development Authority- January 28, 1999
Boyle: A portion of that 25%.
Gerhardt: Yeah a portion. Not all of it.
.'.
Senn: Why would you ever decertify it when you could use that money and go back into District
I where you took it out of in the first place to help solve the deficit problem7
Gerhardt: Yep, you could do that too.
Senn: I mean by the first decertification and taking it out of the district in the first place, if you
hadn't done that, fight now a majority of the $2.5 problem wouldn't exist. So I mean it's just, if
you want the whole history.
Mancino: That's water over the dam. Hey, the 25%, are we limited?
Gerhardt: Then you don't have problem in the future.
Mancino: The 25%, do we, are there any limitations on where we can use if/ The money that we
make in the administration fee, the 25%, does it have to stay in the district? I mean. ..
Gerhardt: Yes.
Mancino: Okay.
Gerhardt: 10% can be used for administrative costs. The other 15% can be used anywhere
within this red line.
Mancino: And only there.
Gerhardt: Only there.
Boyle: It's very thorough. Thank you.
Mancino: Very good. Thank you. Oh! ...can you talk a little bit about, Todd I'm concerned
about a couple things. And the road. The road going through, and you know will we be at some
point down the road, will the city have to come into play and upgrade the road? I mean what
improvements are going to again fall back as part of this project and all that kind of stuff?
..
Gerhardt: ...needed to work that out an issue regarding...I'know we had to deal with the access
issue here. But how this wasn't included as a part o~' the project.
Mancino: That's just a din road now. Can we keep it the way it is, all the way through there?
i8
~onomic Development Authority - Januaxy 28, i'999
..
Ashworth: ...this type of a cul-de-sac fashion and we did'it in such a fashion so that the road
came in. You come back up in here. IfBloomberg wanted to take and ~m,m'ove these, they could
have access off of that roadway because .....
·
Clayton Johnson: No, a little history there was that we originally wanted...first attempt to
develop the property and put the road through .and the previous HRA didn't want to put the road
through. So when we came with the plan that we're currently working.on, it's intended that
everything would be served off'Market Bouloval'd'- ;. "
Bohn: That's not true. We wanted the road through but we didn't want to pay for it.
Vemelle Clayton: ...
Mancino: So where are we now with the road? I want to explain the road because I think it's
important.
Gerhardt: Our road fight-of-way stops right at the entrance, the first entrance into the'parking lot.
The City Council as a part of the approval of this vacated the road, we had road right-of-way up
here. They' vacated so we could expand the. park~... But we never had, we never had right-of-
way that would take us all the way over here.
Clayton John~qon: For one thing the Dinner Theater's not...The Dinner Theater's still in District
1.
Gerhardt: Right, the Dinner Theater isn't but the two smaller buildings and see the PID number
for this goes all the way over here. It's like an upside down Florida.
Mancino: But Todd, what you have told us, I again it's my memory but is that the road will go
all the way through.
Gerhardt: Will go all the way through once this property is developed.
Mancino: Oh, okay. So you're saying with thi~.new developmem adding, and I'm just going to
call it bowling because we've already done movie phase I..The bowling part that you will not be
able to, there will not be an improved road whatsoever going out to the east?
Boyle: Not as a result of the imrrrovement Of the' bowling alley. . .
·
.
Mancino: We will not be paralleling those two things? -
. ..
Gerhardt: I think that's going to be an issue as this thing goes back through planning
commission and city council process through this b' .eeause we did talk about there would be
another potential access, if I remember right,'wben we talk about traffic that we needed,., we
needed something to go through here., be it a paved drive or som~ to alloW a...access
19
Economic Development Authority - January. 28, 1999
because of the mount of traffic generated from these people to go out. We didn't want thom all
to go out one way. We wanted it to be diverted to a second alternative so.
Mancino: Public safety concern, etc.
Gerhardt: Well for engineering, yep. Everybody.
Mancino: Yeah, and will there, I'm sorry I don't want to get into too much detail but I just want
to make sure that all these things are out in front and who is going to end up paying for
improving that road and etc because again that .may be added cost due.to improving the bowling
alley. And just everybody needs to know that.
Gerhardt: I think it's already included in these figures here.
Mancino: But the 665 has jumped to $1.3 million.
Gerhardt: Well that's interest. That's with the interest. The $1,390,000.00 is interest. That's thc
total payments over the 22 years. The $1,390,000.00. That includes all the interest that...
Mancino: That was 14 years.
Gerhardt: Okay.
Mancino: I just want to know how much we have to pay. Okay.
Gerhardt: Well if it's over the 14 years, including the interest and everything, it's $1,390,000.00.
Mancino:
Gerhardt:
Because it's not really 665 because we're going to end up paying 1.3.
·
·
With interest.
Mancino: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's what our obligation as a city will be. Not
$665,000.00. It will be $1.3 million so when that bowling alley is improved we will have paid
$1.3 over 14 years. Okay.
Gerhardt: Interest and principal.
·
·
Mancino: And we don't know yet who has responsibility and haven't talked about the east
access.
.
Bob Copeland: The private parties have responsibility. We'll be responsible for...
Mancino: For not only the easernent but the upgrade and everything..
..
Bob Copeland: Right.
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
Mancino: Okay.
Bob Copeland: It'd be a private paved, access.
~cino: Okay, thank you.
-.
Senn: Say Todd if there's any additional inftslffi'~llto such as semaphores or'anything like that
are required in any of the connection points here or anything else like that, there's absolutely no
money...for that?
Gerhardt: Well you could use the excess increment for the 15%...-
.-
Senn: I'm not talking about the upper. I'm talking about now what you're talking about down
here. Down here there's basically no dollars in anywhere them to fund any'infrasmmm_ne
improvements if they're necessary or semaphores or whatever.
Gerhardt: Nope. It's parking lot improvements, facade and boardwalk and sign.
·
.
Bob Copeland: We hired a traffic engineer who determined that a stop light would n0_t be .
..
Gerhardt: And that was with the east access though right7 I've been working numbers the last
two weeks. I haven't been thinking traffic.
Boyle: Well let's, thank you Todd. Let's continue with questions then at this point. Linda, do
you have something?
Jansen: I don't have any questions, no.
Engel: I don't have any. You got them. Good job.
Boyle: Nancy.
Mancino: My only other one about parking. I just want to make sure that park and ride will stay
there and that the work that's been done to date and 1.ooking at it that we have no problems
keeping the park and ride there and co, you. know both uses work out,-
Gerhardt: Park and ride has a permanent' easement that.
Mancino: How much of the parking lot does the 6ity own7 Can you kind of show thatT..-. You
mean they get to go to the, if the movie thea~r goes in there,..they get to go to the movie free?
..
:
Gerhardt: Well...Here's Market. Here's th~ enli~ce to the bowling cgnter. This is that iong

Mancino: And that easement is because we as a city own that land or Southwest has bought it7
Gerhardt: HRA owned it.
Mancino: HRA still owns that. We own that land, okay. Okay.
Gerhardt: Right now Southwest Metro, which will be an issue when this. retail comes in.
They've been parking like this. And so they're supposed to be parking outside this line so we've
had discussions with Southwest Metro...to basically .renegotiate some of the parking'in that area.
Retail may want some of the parking over in this area and we'll... Once we have an approved
project and know what the uses are, we're going to sit down with Southwest Metro and try to
work out this parking scenario.
Mancino: Thank you.
Boyle:
Bohn:
Jim, questions.
·
·
Yes...part of that building going to stay or is that going to be torn down?
Gerhardt: I understand the entire building will be tom down.
Boyle: Steve.
Labatt: My only question was that road and the cost...
Boyle: Mark Senn, I didn't mean to pass you. You had already asked some questions but let's
come back, I'm sure you have some more.
Senn: Not in terms of the parking. Does this project as it's now configured meet or not meet
parking requirements?
.

Gerhardt: I believe we are short by, I don't remember the number offhand. But we are short, I
know it's less than 100.
Senn: But it's around 100 though if I remember correctly.
Gerhardt: Yeah. Somewhere around there, yep.
Boyle: Didn't we address that last time? I thought we were·
were not short.

Senn: We were short according to Parldng requiremeni;s.,'

Mancino: Yeah because Sharmin said her figures were wrong and she'came back to us and gave
us a sheet Councilman Senn that said that her, it was in the Minutes that I read that were
attached. That her first cal~tion~ were incorrect. I don't have.that sheet, though but I think in
the Minutes I can't remember where. Let's see.
Engel: You mean 700 rather than the 900...
Mancino: There you go. But again we can kind of address that and make sure that that's.
Gerhardt: Yeah, I mean the parking, we .decided, I thOught at the last'm~g that the parldng
issues, you know a lot of the architectural style and things were'going to be more addressed at the
planning commission level. I'm sorry that I'm not up to date on the parking.
-.
Boyle: At the beginning of your presentation, Todd .you had recommended that We focus on the
numbers tonight. The economic portion of this recommendation and I think that's a very good
recommendation and I think we probably should stay in thoso guidelines and focus towards that
arena as it applies to our authority.
Mancino: ... '. -.

Boyle: And that's in the ballparlc -
Gerhardt: Well I won't bring back anything that moves these numbers up any higher.
Boyle: Promise? Has the tape nm out?
Gerhardt: Probably.

move on to comments then. Or discussion~, excuse me. Go ahead. Bob, would you like to come
up and?
Bob Copeland: Well Vemelle and I...

Boyle: Okay, excuse me. Vemelle.'
Vernelle Clayton: I just have to make one comment on this sheet. It ties in with this project.,
There are good things on this sheet as well and as you .beat your head against the wall, there's one
that Don handed out earlier, go out and stand out in the streqt., and look up.and d0wfi. Check

what we have out there. Main Street is something I think we're all proud of and it wouldn't there
if you didn't have this problem. Also want to point out that we've never had enough chance to
toot our horn here, and I'm wearing a different hat now. I'm wearing a Market Square.hat.. You
have a million two that came in in 1997 and that Was a result of the c0.~. effort on the part .
of the former liRA's to lend those folks 700'some thousand' dollars ~o co/xect the problem at
Market Square which was partly due to the fact that. a bridge had been buried there and it was
'23
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
returned to you at a million two which I think is about as good an investment during that period
of time that the city made. It was basically 10% per year and it paid .cash then since. So there are
good things with TIF. There are lots of mysteries with TIY. There are complexities with TIF and
basically it comes down to how can we serve best the economic welfare of the city of ·
Chanhassen. Todd explained a lot of things'that I thought I might explain and so I Certainly am
not going to go back over it but there are a couple tl~ings that I just want to mention. When the
district, when the old district was decertified and we created this new district one of the things
that we had to do was prove that it warranted being created and to do that a certain percentage of
the buildings had to be in a sense sub-par. That's an abbreviation or summary of various criteria
that you have to go through to see just exactly what you have to have a redevelopment district.'
One of the buildings that was sub-par and helped the district become qual. ified was, and I haven't.
seen the wonderful picture but I think you have a picture of the problem we're trying to correct.
So to some extent it would be somewhat incongruous at this point, having Used that building as a
reason for creating the district in the first place, not to give TIF to this particular project to in fact
correct the problem for which we created the district. We have had explanations of pay as you
go. I think it's fairly clear. I think you've done a good job of expl .aining that. I had meant to
explain it because it's not really pay as you go from a developer's perspective. It's go, pay and
then get. You go with the project. You pay for the project, which is one of the reasons you have
more interest than you might have if you just went out and bought a house. Bought a house for
$100,000.00. You pay off what? 200 some thousand. Here you pay a little more because there's
a lag time. He's going to pay his taxes. The first year he'll pay taxes on the old rate. The next
year he'll pay taxes on the new rate from wlfich the TIF is extracted and the following year he'll
get the money. So they're filling that gap. You have a little more interest on this than you
otherwise would have. The city on the other hand has very little risk in what it has to pay out. It
doesn't pay out anything that it doesn't get. It only pays what it gets. It passes it through. So
with that I think that I want to talk a little bit about how we came, we've been on the...of a
dilemma a little bit with this project and what we've talked to you folks about. The first meeting
we came to you with plans and with a plea and with an explanation as to why we needed the TIF.
How we met the but for. We had planned then for the next meeting simply to answer the
questions that were left when the request was tabled. In the meantime we have a couple new
folks on the group here and so we felt we needed to go back over a few things, but we're still
taking to heart the comment and the general agreement and understanding that we're focusing on
economic issues and we aren't so much focusing on the architecture as Todd and you folks just
discussed and so while the plans are here, are they here where they can see them. I don't know
what's up here. I don't know what they're looking at... So we have the plans so you .can see
what will be proposed. You see it in it's form as it will be presented to the planning commission,'
but not necessarily as things go from time to time as it will be when you come out of the planning
commission. So that is the direction that everyone has decided to take here to go through
planning.., you folks first see frankly what kind of building these folks can afford. The but for,
so while to some extent we thought well okay we've had the project approved beforel We're not
asking for any more money. Perhaps this is kind of-an easy task. And perhaps it should be since
we are meeting what the goals of the district were to create, to clean up this awful looking
building. On the other hand we do recognize, and it's reasonable for you to revisit the issue
because there has been changes. Some of the changes have somewhat clouded the vision. Some
of them are reasonable to explore more thoroughly. The question though that we have to ask for
24
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999 --.
is if it's going to be built without TIF, what is the but for. Part of the but for is very .easy to
answer. Bob has put together a list of, an analysis of the numbers. How it Works. How it
doesn't work. The rest ofthe but for though is a little more subjective and it's One that does
affect the overall economy of what happem here in the city because but for the TIF Bob has two
choices. He can cancel the purchase agreement and go with his eight screens and we've' left at
the city with the ugly building for, in my jnd~mnen, t, at least another couple of years. That's
because of the time it takes to get another group put together. Invariably the other group that we
get put together, they put together, the other, whoever puts together, will come back to you and
say, okay. We want to do this now and but for'the TIF, we'll not do it. So you might find
yourself fight back where we are today if the TIF is not given to these folks, on a'plan that we can
have in place. Get the taxes paid sooner. Speaking of paying taxes, one of the risks here is that
this particular building that we're dealing with at the moment has been the one that's been the
least reliable for paying taxes period. The other alternative is that, that Bob has, is to go ahead
but with a lesser building. Lesser in intricacy of design. Lesser in quality. And something that
probably would not be as aesthetically pleasing and therefore would not have as good an impact
on our downtown as a TIF sponsored building would have. So let's discuss a few of the Other
issues then that have clouded the issue. First of all, on the project that you Were originally
providing the TIF it was to redo the parking lot, redo the facade, add a boardwalk and there was a
mixed use of retail, bowling and restatmmt. The current use is retail, a little bit more movie and
at the request of the city I should remind you, no restauranL So the questiOn'is, is this a viable,
economic development that should be supported? The question is not, did we support the prior
plan because there was a restaurant and now there is none because the restaurant was removed at
the request of the city. The question is not did we support it before because there was a bowling
alley and now there is none because the city's files and ours is full of reasons why the bowling
alley is not a very good, an economic investment. While there have been several offers that have
come forward with a thought they might take a crack at managing a new bowling alley, each of
them has come away saying it would take more money than you could recover in any reasonable
period of time to bring the bowling alley up to speed. They also come forward with the response
that 24 lanes, which this is, is the bare minimum that you can have in one facility and expect to
be a success. Even if it were a success, the value of the rents that a successf~ bowling alley can
pay are so low that it does not enhance the value of the building. If you know buildings value in
commercial, commercial buildings values are determined by the mount of rent that is paid. The
question is not either did we split the prior project because the ~ of the retail component
because now we have something that in fact has more retail. And so to the question is this a
viable economic development that should be supported when comparing it with a prior proposal,
the answer is yes. Some other questions have come up and this has come to where there is
difficulty on our part in trying to answer questions because we can only respond to what we've
heard. We haven't heard a whole lot of questions but we have heard a couple of questions. One
is math and we will deal with that when we get to the planning commission unless someone has a
comment and a reason to talk about it tonight. We'll respond to that at the planning commission.
'The other is use and we've heard a variety of reasons why romantically we'd like to Stay with
what we have. But that's sort of a, and I too went through that with this project." We've all gone
through a period of what one experiences is 'somewhat like a death in a family. First you're sad..
Then you're mad. And then you get to the part where okay, let's get On with life. So we all went
through a period of okay, this isn't quite what we had in mind before. We don't have...up front.-
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
We don't have the cute boardwalk. We don't have all the little things that we planned to have
inside. But we don't have that because it wasn't economically viable and we won't have it
because the folks that do those sorts of things need more space than would be available if it were
left that way and I just talked about how a bowling alley is not very economically viable. True,
it's one less thing you can do in downtown Chanhassen but it's not economically viable. The
other area is, the other thought that we've heard and someone else is going to talk a little bit
about that but I would just mention a little bit...as Bob told you last time when we were here,
they are closing eight screen movie theaters in many locations because they are too small to
compete. Sixteen screens do lots of little things for us, .in addition to making sure that we have
an investment that has already been made more secure. We will see bett~ movies. There is a
thing going on I understand in the movie industry where if you have fewer than 20, you don't get
some of the first nm movies. But if you have 20 and you can consistently assure that vendor that
you'll be taking those movies, they put you on the list for all the good movies. The other issue
on the regional draw is one that I love to talk about but I think Steve wants to talk about it a little
bit and so I will just say, in my summary on that, that we are a regional draw. Steve can talk
about some of the institutions that we have here in town. Some of the businesses that we have
here in town that are regional draws and I can only say to you fi'om my experience that I would
hope that you would take the same approach as I do in my business which is I'm responsible for
bringing a fairly large number of businesses and tenants to this town. I feel responsible for their
success. We as a city are responsible for encouraging and bringing these folks to town and we
need to follow through to make sure that they succeed. It's not known to most people that most
businesses here in town are not making a whole lot of money. They knew that, most of them.
The ones that don't know, we counsel with them and tell them that I hope that you have a reserve
so you can live through the lean years until you get to the point that you want to be. But most
folks here in Chonhassen are positioning themselves. They're positioning themselves for our
future growth and they're positioning themselves for the growth from around the region that will
come from them. And you'd be surprised how many folks in town here rely on a region and not
just Chanhassen. In fact there are more people in town doing business that rely on more than
Chanhassen, and always will, than rely on just Chanhassen. If we had businesses, only
businesses in Chanhassen that relied on Chanhassen businesses, we would get by with strip
centers. One of the businesses that I just learned of and it's kind of interesting so I'll pass it on is
a business that moved here from Excelsior and that's the Sampler. She has people coming here
from Japan. If they are ia the United States, they come to her store. And that is truly a regional
shopping center so, first they don't have any money anywhere to spend so I don't know why we
care about that. But so in smrmmry I do think we do have to think of a broad view. Not short
view. Commitments that are previously made to folks and just what this will do economically
for our city and I think it's exciting. You all know I worked on the other plato I liked that plan
but I think it's terribly exciting to put Chanhassen on the map with a 16 screen theater.
Boyle: Thank you Vemelle. YOU commented, Steve did you have some comments?
Steve Berquist: I'm Steve Berquist. I live at 7207 Frontier Trail. I really didn't know I was
going to be introduced, nor did I know for sure that I was going to 'make comments. I thought
perhaps that I would and I have made some notes. Not necessarily ih any particular order so
you'll have to bear with me as I go through them. The first thing I want to tell you, I want to'be
Economic Development Authority- Sanuaty 28, 1999
completely up front about this is, and I'm not here as a former councilmembcr or EDA member.
I'm not here as a mechanical contractor, the HVAC contractor that did the original theater,
although we did. I have no idea whether we've even'looked at anything regarding the tear down
and the rebuild. I'm not here in that regard. You'll have to just weigh in my comments
acco~gly and if you think I'm biased, you;re ccrtainly welcome to discard them. But I assure
you I'm up here as a citizen. The first note that I made, oh the other thln_,~ l.Wallted to do. ! really
wanted to bring a piece of a computer paper with the fold Out so I could...have them all fold out
like I did at the original, at the State of the City thing. Everybody just groaned...' Anyway, the
Senn: I'm kind of glad you didn't do that.
Steve Berquist: Well it would have been funny. But that's alright. Vemelle talks 0n the
regionality issue. We are a regional draw. We have the Target We have the Byerly's. We have
Other draws, the Dinner Theater. Many, many reasons for people in all areas of this part of the
suburb ring to come to Chanhassem The decision regarding our regionality Was made far before
I sat there or you sit there. Now, in my .opinion, the question is how do we in.~re the vitality of
our, of what we have created as our regionality.. So I'm worried about that. I'm conc/emed that
the multiplexes of commercial theaters, I've got to make sure I read my notes here. I'm
concerned that in the event that this project does not go forward, that what could happen, again, as
a citizen, is that 4-5 years down the road that we'll be sitting here, you'll be sitting there talking
to some other developer about the redevelopment of not only the bowling alley, but also what is
currently the existing 8 screen theater. And flora a citizens point of view, I would hate to have to
look at that reinvestment again. I don't want that to happen. I don't look at this as corporate
welfare. I know at some point somebody had made that comment. This is not corporate welfare
in my opinion. Again, increment is only returned to the developer if the valuation per tax dollars
are generated. Do we got an eye sore there? This is, Jim you're nodding your head. You know,.
everybody knows what that place looks like. I mean to us, who drive it every day, who look at it
every day, we have a tendency to look right past it. But believe me the people that come through
Chanhassen that live in other areas and look at that building, don't look right past it. It's an ugly
eye sore and it needs to be cleaned up. Let's see my stan~ items here. I want to talk very
briefly about other communities continuing to offer incentives, and other communifi~ even
looking to annex land for the enhancement of their commercial~ industrial tax baso. I think we're
foolish if we don't believe that they're going to be offering tax increment to, on that land. To
help themselves remain economically viable. Now I say that not only with this project in mind,
but this is a comment that I thought of when you were talking about the original proposal with
Eden Trace. Not that I don't think'affordable housing is a very important component to incl~
with the project but I don't want to sell the tax increment tool Short. I'm afraid with the hot
button, the hot phrase being affordable housing, that that may happem I look at this project that's
before you as a movie theater expansion and the retail component and.I think back on the original
project that we all looked at and fell in love with. The Frontier Building, the movie theater, the
Pauly's restaurant. We all loved it. We all thought it was a great thing for.Chanhassem We
looked forward to how much it was going to draw our downtown together. How many people it
was going to bring to our downtown. How it was going to'affect our economic vitality. I look
now at this project and I really believe that this is a better project. This is a superior project to.
27'
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
what we agreed to back in 1996 but never came to fruition. And I would urge the commissioners
to work towards an agreement with the developer and get this thing going. Lastly, two quick
points. Three quick points. The Mayor mentioned the revenue. Tax revenue flow into the city,
and I just wanted to, I'm sure it's all on the forefront of your minds but you need to keep in mind
the other benefits associated with the vitality of that area. We have a significant piece of land on
the other side of Highway 5 that is largely at this point undeveloped.' We have the CR James
piece that for lack of investment is just sitting there vacant currently. Nobody wants to take the
risk to put anything on it. We've got the Boston Market piece that went down, for whatever
reason. It's down. With the enhancement of this particular area, there's my phone, pardon me.
Engel: Now that's staying in touch.
Steve Berquist: I told him to call me if he needed me, and he just sounded like he wanted to hear
me say hello. Anyway. It's kind of nice when a 12 year old calls his dad, isn't it?
Boyle: Especially when he's at the podium.
Steve Berquist: There will be other activities and values received by the citizens of Chanhassen
with this project, in my opinion. They won't necessarily be tangible, and I know you all believe
that. I simply bring it up. The other thing is that $1.3 million is a case scenario which from what
I heard represents a lot of very conservative or worse case criteria. Is that right? $1.3. That $1.3
million represents a lot of worse case stuff. And lastly, and partly leastly, the park and ride. You
talk about the park and ride. There was no benefit to the park and ride with the old proposal. We
simply had a restaurant there in the existing building and a movie theater. This park and ride,
again if you look at the retail element of it, that is a component of it, stands to benefit. It will still
be there number one, and the services that typically will serve a park and fide, and Mark you're
very privy to those being on the Southwest Metro 'Council down there for the development on
Highway 5. We stand a good chance of going in that retail and being benefited by the park and
ride as well. So that wasn't part of the original concept. I think it's a superior project to what we
had originally, and I would urge you to strongly consider supporting it.
Boyle: Steve, I think there's a couple questions. Nancy.
Mancino: Yeah I just wanted to draw from you. You said, you thought it was a superior project
than the original one in '96 and you just said one of it's due to the retail on the west Side being
close to the park and fide, I understand. And I didn't get your other key points on why you think
it is better than the original one.
Steve Berquist: One of the big reasons is that we get a new building out of it. You know the old-.
thing, while made out of, you know built like a bunker, comes down and gets.replaced by
something that's new.
Mancino: I just wanted to make sure I got your key points on why you think this is better than
the other one.
28
Economic Development Authority - January 28, .1999 .
Steve Berquist: Well the other thing that I thought about mentioning that I didn't want to
necessarily. I think Vemelle mentioned the fact that there was some dis.' eussion regarding the
loss of a restaurant. To me that's not a bad deal.- If you look'at the resta~ we have in town
now. Adding one more, ! don't necessarily think that's a good deal for us. Any other ques. tion~?
Thank you for your indulgence.

Boyle:
Thank you Steve.
Clayton Johnson: For those who are new, I'm Clayton Johnmm with the Bloomberg Companies.
And the next door neighbor to this project. And Todd I want to compliment you.' That was a
great presentation and I think it was very helpful, particularly to the new members and it's
helpful even to us who have been through the whole thing. But I thing we support the project
obviously because we're the next door neighbor. We've been active in the development of all of
downtown since 1986, but also in thi.q whole site. The original hotel, the hotel expansion, the
meeting rooms and so on and we're currently wrapping up the Frontier improvement. I don't
know if you've been back there in the last few day~ but it's actually starting to look like
something. But the other reason that we support it is that we are very interested in taking this
thing to the next step, which is the area behind the Dinner Theater which we know is everybody;s
concern and Brad, from Lotus' office and myseffhave continued to work with a major dever.oper
and a major tenant on a large office building for that spot and we are encouraged by them to
continue, and we're going to probably be at the next meeting to make a preliminary presentation.
So we're actively pursuing that and we hope that your support for'thi.q project continues.
Boyle: Thank you.
John Rice: I didn't plan on saying anything.
Boyle: Well everybody else has, you might as well.
John Rice: Let silence be taken as objection- My name is John Rice. My office is in the Frontier
Building, 551 West 78t~ Street. As some of you may know I'm the attorney for Bloomberg
Companies and I've been here before on various projects. I have some other history which Don
might or might not remember. I sat in the closing on the first .development and sale of'the
bowling alley, representing one of the parties in there. And it has, it needs some help now. But
anyway, it would be a vast improvement on that building. That building and it's current use is a
drag. The taxes itself are, the usage has demonstrated that it's not going to be economically
viable. Mr. Copeland here has already made a substantial investment in the first stage of the
cinema. He's made a substantial investment and he chooses putting his o .wn'money in to expand
that same investment in the downtown to make that improvement' next door to his own buildi~.
And I would think that that would be a s~ificant .factor indicating that there's some good faith
work and investment to be clone by him alld m'erits your approval. Besides that it's going to
work favorably for the overall improvements of the'entire south side there:that faces on Highway'

Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
Boyle: Thank you. I think at this point, let's open it up now for questions please. And again,
let's focus on the economic portion if we could please. I'll start on my right side, Mark. Engel.
Or Senn, if you'd like to begin.
Senn: I'll have you come back to me...
Boyle: Alright, Linda.
Jansen: I have one question. In mention to the eight screen theaters actually being closed down
and that they can't compete. When did that trend start? I'm looking at the cinema just having
opened and now it's not viable.
Bob Copeland: When we started to plan the cinema there in about 1994...
Boyle: Bob, it might be best so this gets on. Thank you.
Bob Copeland: When we started planniug the existing cinema there in 1994, eight screens was
kind of a big deal. At least we thought it was. But since then there is a national trend that is
towards larger and larger complexes. More and more screens. And what's happening is that 16
has somehow become sort of a magic number that if you're smaller than 16, you're in jeopardy of
not surviving. The 8 screen cinema down in Burnsville is closed. There's one in Edina that will
be closed in the coming year. It's an 8 screen cinema. And we're hearing about this and we're
seeing it all around the country and 8 just is not a viable number any longer and so this is just a
development that's happened I'd say in the last 3 or 4 years, but it's accelerating. And there are
going to be fewer movie theaters with larger numbers of screens at those fewer theaters.
Jansen: And so as we're looking at some of the smaller markets, and of course trying to
familiarize myself with your business I was going through the paper. As I'm looking at all of
these smaller theaters in smaller communities, and meaning even our size, you're forecasting that
those will be closed because our population will be traveling into say an Eden Prairie where
maybe they would put 16 screens. Making us less viable.
Bob Copeland: Well that's right. There probably will be a 16 screen plus cinema in Eden Prairie
in the coming years. I think that's inevitable. But what we're concerned about is that in the
coming years there may be a 16 screen at some Other community that would be closer than we
could withstand. And the smaller numbers of screen cinemas in smaller communities will
probably survive. We have a 7 screen cinema in Buffalo that we _think will do fine. But at the,
this, Chanhassen is closer in to where the population is and the smaller ones that are where the
population are are not going to survive. The Brookdale Cinema just closed this month. Four
screens. It's going to happen. And it's a national trend and it's not something that we relish. It's
not something that we, you know anybody's promoting but that's you know the way it's going.
Mancino: What's a single reason for that? I mean why would I want to go outside of my own
city of Chanhassen that has an 8 screen theater to go to a 16 one 10 miles away? I mean what do
30
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
they say is the draw7 Is it because everybody in my family eau go to a different, you know go to
a different movie in the same building?
Bob Copeland: That's one of the things. But even with 8 screens here in Chanhassen, we can't
play all the movies. We can't get them all.' You know there are. youknow a handful of movies
that we don't have right now because we only have 8 screens so we can't show'all the movies;
So there might be some movies that you want to see that we .don't have. .. '
Mancino: You mean I have to wait a week to see before you get the new ones?
Bob Copeland: Well no, but we won't be getting them,
Mancino: Oh! You won't be getting them a~ all?
.
Bob Copeland: Right. For example if you want to see Waking Ned D .evine. I mean you have to
go down to some other place to see that. And if you want to see Life is Beautiful.
Mancino: I have to go to the Lagoon.
Bob Copeland: Or some other place. But the big reason though is that the larger, newer cinemas
with stadium seating and in some cases bigger screens which we would intend to have here is
have one big auditorium with a very large screen, they are drawing people. People are driving by
the smaller ones and they're going to those.
Mancino: Yeah, no. I can understand that...
Bob Copeland: And it's not everybody's taste. Some people say well that wouldn't be for me. I
wouldn't do that but people are doing that.
Jansen: The theaters that are open now, and you have to forgive me. I'm not a big movie goer,
but don't I recall seeing, don't you have the stadium seating in the existing cinema?
Bob Copeland: In 4 of the 8 auditoriums we have s~_dium seating, yes.
Jansen: Okay. And are they the oversized screens or the big screens?
Bob Copeland: Well I would say no. They're just average size screens.
.
.
.
Jansen: Okay. Thank you. ' .. ...

Boyle: You ready Mark? Excuse me Bob. Does anYb°dY.else have any questions for Bob while
he's at the podium. Questions of Bob? Okay. I had one but ! forgot what it was.
Engel: I don't have questions. Just a few comment8 but I'm going to'wait until; are you ready, to
go Mark?
31
Economic Development Authority- January 28, 1999
Senn: No.
Engel: No?
Boyle: Go ahead.
· EngeI: Well, I just watched this for a number of years before I got'on council or EDA and to me
the gain from the commercial viability 0fjust our core downtown, in and of itself, is probably
enough reason for me to approve it. Just that. And I think it's very pretentious on our part to sit
here and think that under market conditions that property is going to redevelop, given it's
demonstrated staying power to not do so. And it's certainly been uglier than the amount of years
I've just been here but I've about had it with that place myself. So I don't believe there's any
market condition that says that's going to change. If that's the case, I believe it would have
happened by now and I don't see anybody else stepping up to the plate and I know it may not be
perfect but it's not our property. We've got to deal with what we get and it's betier than anything
we've gotten so far. I think if we get this, we get closer to that office building, tower, center,
complex, whatever you want to call it behind the Dinner Theater. Again it's that incrementalism.
We're sneaking up on it. But we're not going to get it with this there, in my opinion. You
wouldn't get me to build an office building there with that thing around. And it's all better than
the existing use. It just is. That's not even debatable. It's not cash out of pocket. We're not
being asked for a loan. It's incremental tax dollars. It's a win for us. It may not be a win for
everybody but it is a win for the city so I'm going to approve it.
Boyle: Thank you. Right to the point. Appreciate that.
Jansen: Can I ask yet another question? It actually came up from something Mark said. I'm
recalling, and I spent two days going through the history on this project and Mr. Gerhardt was
wonderful. This is my second presentation of the numbers so he made sure I understood them
perfectly clear. But one of the things I recall reading was, at least one other approach to the
project that seemed to stall and then fail because of the existing financial situation of the bowling
alley owners. Wasn't there a whole complicated process where the purchase just couldn't be
made and the project stalled and stopped because of that? Or we would have something there
now?
Gerhardt: One of the deals was that Pauly would be included in on it. Dan Dahlen would be
included in it and Dan would rent back basically from himself the bowling element and it wasn't
a marketable deal. You couldn't take it to a bank and it failed.
Jansen: So it was more the financial situation of the property that stopped the deal or we:d have
something there now?
Gerhardt: ...
Jansen: Okay.

Economic Development Authority- Janua~ 28, 1999 '
Gerhardt: Bowling is difficult, it's diffi~t/0 ~ a bowling ahoy to starve aJad'pay'over $2.00
a square foot in taxes. $3.00 a square foot in taxes.' And for them to survive there. 'And the
amount of space that you need for a bowling alley, Tbere's'24'lanes and then'the space.in-"
between. You just have way too much square footage to really afford to pay $15.00~$12.00 a .
square foot in a lease and still make money.
Jansen: So is the first project that's come before the EDA or the I-IRA as far as demolishing the
building completely and putting up a new busines, s? Okay. SO it's really the first time it's been
looked at that way. Okay. And then the other part' that of course I keep rem/~ and we ~
mentioning is the eye sore of the existing building and taking a good look at it and your pictures -
show it beautifully with the paint peeling off of the facade. I brought the questio~ Up.and it was
with staff as to whether or not there is an ordinance that, in place that actually addresses those
things because if we're actually coming at it and saying you know this thing is an eye sore. It's
detracting from being able to bring businesses into the downtown. If we weren't replacing it...
(There was a tape change at this point in the discussion.)
Ashworth: ...passes that referendum, these businesses will be taxed for that And the money
will go directly to the school district. Or it would go directly'to us.
Boyle: Well does the 25% remain? I mean the 25% is there year a!kr year after year, right?
That goes right back to the city, is thi.~ correct? Where does the 25% come?
Ashworth: I think that Todd had mentioned, the 10% can be used for any type of purpose
whatsoever. The 15% has to kind of stay within that boundary area that is totally up to us. In
other words it doesn't have to benefit these parti~ owners.
Boyle: Okay. As long as that district is, okay I understan&
Mancino: So I think what Councilman Senn is Saying that the 15% has to stay within the district.
If it were regular property taxes, it would not have to stay in that distri~ It could be used over
all in the city anywhere and so that it wouldn't have to just stay in the district. We could use it
anywhere you have a little bigger universe to decide whereas thi.~ has to stay just right there. Is
that what you're, part of your point? ' -. '- - - ..
.
..
.. ..
Senn: Only 10% of the revenues coming'0ff~ pmj~ can go Outside of this very small district '
area. 1 (PA. Okay. So what I was saying was not relating to capital referendums Or Whatever.'
What I was saying was normal ongoing city operating needs as the city grows, whatever.'. As ou~
infrastructure ages, as it requires more mainteoanee and everything else as we have more needs '-
developed because of our population growth, okay we have increased services. We have
increased operating costs. Okay our percentage of the overall tax rate will probably increase. As
it increases, okay you will not recover any increase off these lxoperfies.. So they will not be
paying their fair share towards any of those future increaseS, in .relationship to stress or

infrastructure maintenance and...whatever within the'city so when the area is not doin~ that, or
bigger properties end up doing that, that means the other properties pay more.
Mancino: The original base value. The blue numbers.
Ger~t: ...that will continue to...
Mancino: And if there is a school referendum that does go tO the school district, but there is no
money, no green money that goes to the county.. So the people who really lose out as it Were I-
guess, from the tax increment districts, and actually in'the latest newsletter from the county, the
people that actually lose out or the agency that actually loses out is the county. And then they
come back to us as the city and say, we lost all this money. How will you make it up to us? I
mean using numbers...other side of that.
Senn: Well it's more complicated than that. Much more complicated. The county's not the only
negative you know.
Mancino: But I mean then we enter into agreements on county roads, etc. Again, just
everything.
Boyle: Mark, you still have the floor if you would like.
Senn: No, I'm done.
Boyle: Linda.
Jansen: I guess tagging onto what Councilman Senn said when he's saying the right project.
And again not thinking of the cinemas as being the wrong type of a business or project, but when
I look at that property and realize that for the 14 year period and the 22 year periOd that it won't
be on the tax roils. That yes, we'd like to get it on as soon as poss~le. In 14 or 22'years, is there
a possibility that there will be a business or a developer that would come in and not need the
to develop the property? Might there be an oppartunity for there to be a development that could
go in and that could immediately get onto the tax roils? Maybe I'm reacting a little bit more in
that direction having just come through the whole election and the campaign process and hearing
over and over again, you know taxes, taxes, taxes and wanting to bring that number down on the
property owners. TIF definitely is' one'of those issues that you end up having.' discussions on and .
watching where the EDA is taking the funding and going more towards the affordable housing to'
get workers into towm It's not that we're'needing, we don't hax;e enough workers. It's not that'
we're now needing to attract businesses..Though I'm not .saying you know no to ~ommercial.
I'm saying if we're at a point in the development of Chanhasseo that lmsine~ses are coming into
the community, and especially into our downtown area becaUse'of the way it's developed with
.

..
you know all the hard work that all of you have gone to, we've got this property. We're limited
in the amount of property that is available for development now in the downtown. Do we want,.

Economic Development Authority- January 28, 1999
should we be taking public money to help in the exp .ansion of the business when what the
community and the vision has been for this property is multi-use. And again I reali~.e that we
don't dictate what businesses go in there. That that's not what we're here for but it's what are we
going to take the public dollars and use them towards. So as I read through all of the TIP'
information and policy information, this being a redevelopment district, we're looking at an
expansion of an ex/sting business which is exciting for the community. Is that the fight place for
public dollars and TIF dollars. It's not within that realm 0fredevelopment. We're looking at an
ugly building that's sitting here. If we step up to the plate and do something with that versus
feeling that we have to commit to a 14 and a 22 year commitment of the one chunk being the
$665,000.00, and the $1.4 million, that's an extravagant investment of public money into an area,
but that's not what the public has had the vision for it. We're straying from that. We're
spending their money on something that wasn't envisioned for. Just some of the questions that
came up as I was comparing TIF policies, this area, the vision of Chanhassen. Maybe I'm less
impatient because I haven't been sitting up here seeing this property. I Wasn't involved in the
first one and looking at the downtown area, I'm looking at all the things that this community
needs, wants, should have that TIP' could go.to because they're not here, and we're looking at
should we be making the business decision to finance the expansion of a business? That's not
what we're here for either. We're not to be making those types of entrepreneur type decisions.
But again, just a few of the things that I hit as I was going through that, They seem in conflict.
You know definitely wanting businesses in town to succeed. But that's a business purpose.
That's private, not public.
Boyle: Some good points. Thank you.
Mancino: Well I kind of want to build on that and I'm not really...just because I think I feel like
a lot of the other members on the commission and that is that, I really do believe in
redevelopment and I believe in the very first point that we have in the new TIF policy which is
compatibility of the proposed project with the city's overall development plans and objectives.
And there's no question that this area has been a focus for the Highway 5 and for the city council.
As we on the planning commission saw this project in '94, so it has been a focus for
redevelopment and committing dollars for the project. So I am not philosophically opposed to
using TIF for some particular spot redevelopment. At all. Although I want to caution us from
what something that Councilmember Jansen just said. And I kind of smiled because I hadn't
thought about it and that is in this area, and this is a major redevelopment area that Clayton has
talked about and that we can see is, and if you don't mind I'm going to get up .... to make sure
that we understand that as we...that hopefully the rest of this will be developed too. Soon. And it
is...are we ready to be committed to take the same thinking and philosophy over to this area too..
. Boyle: Do we dare not do that?
..
Mancino: So you know I just want to put that on the table that that is something that you know .
hopefully in the next few years that we'll be looking at too and philosophically where do we
come down as an EDA as far as using TIF.
' '
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
Boyle: In other words you feel maybe we're s~ a precedent onithis one? For let's assume an
office building does come, and they come in and they want TIF. Well you gave TIF here. You
give here. Hey, each issue is new. I don't believe this sets a precedent. I think the past .comes .
more to this.
Senn: ...from what she said, you have to listen to what she said. On a pure pre, n_ ise,
philosophically is redevelopment, okay. If that's the premise that you're deciding this on, then
you are philosophically saying that you're going to continue this...
Boyle: I don't agree.
Senn: ...for redevelopment purposes...
Engel: A person can change their mind.
Mancino: That's what I'm asking because.
Boyle: Philosophically you're saying.
Mancino: Yeah, philosophically and again I'm not trying to, if this is an eye sore, you know
these two buildings are eye sores because now we've got, we've got everybody down here.
We're using this road, etc. I just want to make sure that we thought about it and we all feel
comfortable with it because again the same argument for the eye sore could be down here.
Engel: I think that goes without saying.
Boyle: Can I just make a comment there? Let's just assume that this doesn't go in and another
use comes in and they request some assistance. Do we say cops. I'm sorry. We're going' to wait
another two years because you can't afford it. We:re going to hold fight. We're going to hold
tight because we're not going to give TIF assistance any more for comm~ development. And
we don't care what kind of business you got in here, we're not going to give it. Is that a fair
philosophical assumption?
Senn: Well there is a philosophical assumption that says development will occur regardless of
what you throw at it, yes. But it's a matter of time. I mean Byerly's Wanted to be in Chanhassen
regardless of whether we subsidized it or not.' They got kicked out of several other sites. It was
the only one left, okay. So you're kind of kiddlnE yourselves if yeu think it wouldn't be, okay. :
But I mean essentially you have to ask yourself the question What's the premise you're doing it
on and how big, or how deep are you digging your hole? If you go with a project like this on a
pure premise of effectively redevelopment, which is the only premise that appears to me you can
go on. Then you go down the way and you say but we're going to look at this one differently. I
don't know how you're going to do that because (a), it's going to be redevelopment and in all
probability it's going to be something other than something. that's going to produce nothing more - '
than a bunch of minimum wage jobs. Which this project's 0nly doing. There won't be a single
job in that place that's not minimum wage probably.
:
Economic Development Authority - January 28, '1999
Mancino: Well I just want to make sure we don't"go' from one ex.ti'eme to the other. Say no
redevelopment that we're using T1F or all redevelopment that we're using TIF.
Engel: I want every project on it's own.
Mancino: And every project on it's own and talk about that for a few minutes because I don't
want us to get into again going to the extremes"on either. I mean I think that's a good
conversation to have .... those things that it must bring the city that We'feel TIF should be used
for. And again, because this is going to come up again, whether it's just, you know we're talking
about extremes fight now so I'd like to talk about some Of those gray areas and why even this one
in particular is important.
Engel: And I just wanted, this body by it's very nature is fluid. It is going to change so whatever
long term policy we would put in place is really going to be subjected to the thinking of the
people sitting in these chairs the next time One'comes up. So by default they almost live in a case
by case basis. So philosophically I love that. I think the long term vision, something for the city.
That's great. But the fact is everybody that moves into these seats is going tO. look at what
they've got and they're going to decide based on the way they feel about it right now. Regardless
of what the policy is.
Jansen: Making comment to that, as one of the new kids sitting up here. Prior to this meeting
the reason that I went back on all of the history and went back to the Vision 2002 was to make
sure that I don't want to implement a major change. That's not why I'm here. I'm here because
there's a vision and there's a course that's being gone down and I need to make sure that I'm on
board with that and one of the things that as an EDA that you've done recently is you've changed
your focus and so I'm getting on board with a new focus and now this project's coming along
and to me it's out of sync with where your new focus is. I'm trying to get myself onto the new
course and you've got a transition going on here: Because I'm looking at these 2, 3 year projects.
The hotel expansion and the Timber Lounge and those to me are a better comparison to this
project. So I look at the 3 years and the mount of money that went into those compared to 14
years and 22 years and it's wow.
Engel: See and I look at it, and I don't want to use the word utopian because that denigrates it
but it's the only word I can think of for now so I'm going to leave it there but it's not that bad
when I use that word. I mean I look at it from a reality perspective. Is it better or is it worse7
And regardless of what we think, we might wait another year. We might wait two years. The
next one doesn't quite do it for us. Maybe it's three years. 'How many years has it been there7
207 257 I don't know. And I've watched these guys come up here over the last couple years, I
don't see anybody nipping at their heels to grab .this parcel.of land out from underneath their feet
and snap it up and do a better deal. I'm kind of waiting to see the next drawing, I haven't seen
one yet. It tends to tell me that there's some reality as to what that thing can viably support and
what people are willing to put into it. If somebody had another deal on the table and was coming
right on the door behind him, I'd be willing to look at it. I've been waiting two years., I haven't
3'/
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
seen it. They don't own exclusive rights to'redevelop in Cha~sen and i don't see anybody
stepping up with another offer.
-.
· .
Senn: Mark they haven't been able to develop in two years because ofbankruP.~. ..
Engel: You know what, that's all part of the deal Mark. That's what I was saying..
Senn: That's not part of the market. When you're asking $2 million from each property trying to
bring it down and then...
· .
Boyle: Vemelle, you have some eomment~.' Wo~id you like to?" '
Vemelle Clayton: ...the bankruptcy that has kept this from being sold.. Lots of reasons, mostly
economic and.
Senn: Vemelle, okay. If you want to get up then le~'s debate it because when a thing's fled up
in bankruptcy, when there's judgments against it, when the security position for closing on it, you
can't sell a piece of property. If you can tell me .any differently there as a professional real estate
person I'd like you to put that on the record...how much you .know 'about the real estate
profession.
Vemelle Clayton: I'll put it on the record. I'll speak slowly enough so that what you say can be
on the record too. But I'll be happy to put it on the record. This property, has not been in
bankruptcy that long. We spent a lot of time before it went into bankruptcy trying to get it sold.
We had problems getting enough money generated on an income stream on'the...to get any kind
of a loan. That was a problem.
Senn: ...security interest. They were in default on. That was the problem.
Vemelle Clayton: That's not true. He had the money.
Senn: We were the one who had the security interest The City. They were in default
Vernelle Clayton: We can go back and go through all the ~ents that we had and what
you're saying isn't true. Plain and simple.
Gerhardt: Mr. Chairman I'd just like to add one other point. I'm not trying to skew anything
·
here but you know there is, could be other potential users that you might not want there other
than movies. There are other permitted uses in the area that might go in there that are less
attractive than a movie theater. So that is also a gamble.' I just want you to make sure that you
understand that. It could be a lawn and sports shop:. It could be a big tobacco store. You know
other things like that. Just so you understand that you're weighing what you see here .against
something in the future which might be something that you don't like. Okay. Or worse than
what this is, okay. You know just don't think the next project will be better than this. You've
got to keep that in the back of your mind.. " '" '. -

Economic Development Authority - Sanuary 28, 1999
Engel: Todd, and I'm going to answer that. I mean you're going down a path there that I think is
in response to sort of a premise that's being said here that we're analyzing this use. That doesn't
make it to my radar screen. This debate about a movie theater and whether we need it or not and
whether we should subsidize the expansion of an existing business. That doesn't make it to the
radar screen in my opinion. It is a gigantic, it is a huge improvement over what we presently
have. That's the bottom line, in my opinion. Again I guess I'm preaching a choir already. We.
know where we stand on this. It's a huge improvement over what we already have. I don't think
we should be debating the uses because we're getting into that slippery, that's a slippery slope.
What's next? We can't make that call.
Boyle: Yeah, excuse me Sim.
Bohn: We created this new district with the idea of redeveloping it and that's What we were
going to do. Redevelop it. Regardless if it's a movie theater or another bowling alley Or what it
was, but we were going to rebuild. That's why we created this new district and that's what we
should be doing is redeveloping. Saying that we're just adding onto the movie theater.
Redeveloping the bowling alley that's going down the tubes. We are redeveloping and that's
what our job is as a HRA or EDA, is to redevelop that area, And taking it from a bowling alley,
an addition to a movie theater, that's what we're supposed to be doing.
Boyle: I guess I would like to take, excuse me Nancy just a minute, take that just a little bit
further because at the time, the purpose was designated and at one point in time there were other
people sitting here that says yeah, we think that a restaurant and a bar and a bowling alley
combined is ideal and we're willing to help in the financing of that. Now the fact that that's not
part of the mix, you have now a movie theater with 10,000 square feet of retail space, which I
think is a big plus by the way that hasn't been mentioned before and I think it adds to it. It
doesn't change the scenario from where we were four years ago, or five.
Mancino: Well Jim just answered one of the points that I was trying to make when I was
standing up there and that is, if we as an EDA, I mean to again be proactive and decide
philosophically that we want to go in and redevelop a place, let's be, and I'm ta__lk-ing about it for
Don and Todd, let's be very proactive and say here is the area we want to redevelop it like has
been done here. We haven't moved on into the next area.
Gerhardt: At the next meeting I will bring.
Mancino: Okay. Let's be proactive and say where it is we want to redevelop it and then counter
to Councilman Engel, because I'm probably 360, I'm the opposite end of Councilman Engel. I
do think that use is important. We spent lots of time talking about use and what kind of use we
want in our downtown and what kind of services and the mix of uses, etc. It is extremely
important to me along with the redevelopment and focusing in on that. So'as an EDA we should
make sure that we are proactive if there is an area that we want to focus in and say with some TIF
dollars we will go into partnership and be again very proactive about that and spend some time
doing that and say you know why is it important to us. Don?
Eeono~¢ Development Authority - January 28, 1999
Ashworth: In going along, I totally agree.with'you. And I also. agree with Councilman senn in
that some of these things could have happened privately ~ I was part of the negotiations on
Byerly's, the Chanhassen State Bank, Festival Foods. I cam guarantee you if they would have
come in, in each and every ease, they wanted to be out on the highway. They had already, not
purchase agreements but what are the initial agreements you enter into. It was because of our
efforts to say we want you in downtown that we brought Byerly's downtown. Because of our
efforts we could put Chanhassen State Bank who also had an option on property out there.
Similar with Festival Foods. So I agree with'you, we could take and ensure that this property
gets developed in the way that we want it developed. :'
Mancino: Then, may I ask more7 Did you want to go on7
Boyle: No, but what helps us assure that that happens the way we want it to happen, and that's
utilizing TIF, is that correct? Excuse me, now you earn
Mancino: Let's figure it up front. One of the very important reasons that Ithink we use TIF in a
redevelopment is for the quality of the facility to be built, etc, and I have concerns about that I
want to make sure that if we do go ahead with'this, that the planning commission and some
conceptual concerns that I have with one, quality, of materials. I have some very big concerns
about when the movie theater stops there, that there is, in the original on the east side of the
movie theater there were supposed to be two retail That was original, original of '94. So again
it brought energy around that comer and again would focus it in going up the alley way into the
hotel and Timber Lounge. It would be, bring energy around the Bloomberg retail. So I'm very,
very concerned with that comer and I thinlc a big lesson that wc'vc probably all learned is doing
these things in phases and not knowing what's going to go on next. Because I think that the
boardwalk just stopping now from what I can see is a concern again in materials and then how
we deal with that whole eastern part is a very big '.concern for me. And it to me doesn't have the
quality. I don't see it meeting that quality test which ~ if it goes through I would like to see
come back to the EDA to make sure that it does do that. After going through planning. I don't
think we need to sit here and do that at all but a/t. er going through plmming.
Boyle: Do you feel Nancy then that thoro is more control if there is TIF involved than if there is
not TIF involved?
Mancino: Well you know.
Boyle: Control meaning we have more control of the quality and the appearance, 'etc.
Mancino: Well we can decide to have tl~ or not to som~ degree. Thi~ is in the Highway 5
corridor so there is a lot of control because it is in the Highway 5 eorri~ already. I mean
architectural materials, etc. So as far as 1 look at it is the use of TIF goes even. over and above
the Highway 5. But then again I don't think it's fair for an applicant to'then go to planning and
say, don't worry about TIF. They do need to know that we are involved with the project and that
we do expect and we have it right down here, that it has to meet our high quality. '-
Economic Development Authority - January 28, 1999
Boyle: Could we assume that the quality of the materials and the appearance might not be as
good if it does not have TIF?
Mancino: Well you know, I don't know. Obviously, and I said to Bob...you know he did not
want to use EFIS because he didn't think that the material would hold up and then we did the
pre, cast and now we're back to EFIS and so I'm kind of, you know we went back and forth on
that. So I'm concerned about quality of materials, etc and that's something that I want the
planning commission to look at.
Jansen: And Mayor and Chairman, I did ask that question of staff as one of my concerns,
realizing that there was a vision for the entire project and they did go and they referred to the
Highway 5 corridor study and in getting back to me said, that because of the parameters withir!
that study they felt confident that however this project comes to them, 'they will be able to guide
it because there does need to be the consistency. And that in fact it would give the, if they went
with the Highway $ corridor ordinances, it would give more green space.to that area so it changes
it some. It actually in some of the ordinances it's a fitch stricter than we're actually applying
with the current facade, parking and boardwalk parameters. That was staff's feedback to me.
Mancino: Well I would like to make sure that it at least, you know it fulfills the Highway 5
corridor and then builds upon that. And I think that (hat's how we, and I think a lot of us saw
and still feel that the Richfield Bank that Bob was involved in and the new, the Byerly's
complex, and the Chanhassen Bank are just...
(There was a tape change at this point in the discussion.)
Mancino: ...I mean I think that that's a key component of it. I kind of feel like we have, we're
pretty sure about parking but we'll want to make sure that that happens too.
Engel: My understanding was that they were prepared to go to that'route anyway but if you want
to.
Senn: We probably should put it into it.
Engel: That's fine. I don't think they have any problem with that. I'll add that.
Boyle: How would that be worded again, I'm sony. Why don't we.
:
Gerhardt: The tape wasn't on so if you could ju.st repeat it one more time.
.
Engel: Again huh. Okay, I'm going to be briefer this time. Move approval 0fprivate
redevelopment agreement for Phase II per staff's' details with Chanhassen Cinema, modifying
existing private redevelopment for Phase I and add that it's contingent on architectural approval
by the EDA and road and access approval as well. Access from the east per Mayor Mancino's
request. And the retail is included with the movie as one development, not phased. Period.

Boyle: The motion has been redefined. May I have a second to the revised motion? Sim
continues to second. Is there further discussion?
Engel moved, Bohn seconded that the Economic Development Authority approve the '
Private Redevelopment Agreement for Phase H (Movie and Retail as one development, not
phased) with Chanhassen Cinema, LLC and their request for $1,389,854 in city assistance

favor, except Senn and Jansen who opposed, and the motion carried with a vote of 5 to 2.
APPROVAL OF BILLS:
Boyle: That brings us up to the bills. Time to pay the bills. May I have a motion to approve the
bills as listed? I don't have it.
Labatt: I'll make a motion to approve the bills.
Boyle: Before that, are there questions regarding the bills to sm_fi?
Engel: None here.
Boyle: Linda, Mark, do you have any questions on the bills that you'd like to address with staff
at this time?
Jansen: No.
Boyle: Steve7 Jim?
Bohn: No.
Labatt: No.
Boyle: May I have a motion to approve the bills as presented.
Labatt: I'll make a motion to approve the bills as presented.

raise a question about your meeting nights, Mayor if you would pleas e.
Mancino' Oh, okay. I have a question for the members. I don't know if it works with
everyone's schedule but I recently volunteered to be on the Southwest Transit Commission and
they have their monthly meetings the third Thursday of the month so I am wondering if we could
possibly change our meetings to the same time but the fourth Thursday of the month? If that
works for people.
Engel: No objections here.
Bohn: Works for me.
Boyle: I have no problem.
Labatt: No problem.
Jansen: Fine with me.
Mancino: Is that fine with you?
Jansen: Yes.
Engel: So I take this needs scheduling changes.
Mancino: Councilman Senn, does that work for you?
Boyle: Okay, Todd. We will officially change, we will change the official meeting date to the
fourth Thursday of each and remain at 6:30 for the time being. Is that?
Engel: That works well.
Boyle: Is that okay? I mean does anybody want to go to 6:00? No? Okay.
Gerhardt: I understand that in April we've got one, we've got five Thursdays So the 22~d,
everybody has that?
Boyle: The fourth, is that the fourth Thursday then?

MEMORANDUM
TO: Economic Development Authority

FROM:
Don Ashworth, Executive Director
DATE: April 12, 1999
SUB J:
Klingelhutz Easeme/ff Acquisition- - '-
Background - In the mid 1980s, the Council approved plans and specifications for
the new Great Plains Boulevard,'West 78th Street, and Market Boulevard road,
utility, parking lot, etc. improvement projects. Approximately 50.parcels were
identified as being acquired for either the malign or ~xpanded right-of-way. Three
of the parcels involved the railroad at each of the two intersections (two separate
parcels at Great Plains Blvd.). Railroads are exempt from typical, state
eondenmafion powers and are notorious for'their n0~iveness. All of the
crossings required 5-10 years.to be finalized (the Hwy. 101 crossing is still not
complete).
Activities Following Mr. KlingelhuW/Mr. Sehlenk's Pui'ehase of the Property - As
noted above, the railroad crossing at Great Plains Blvd. involved two separate
parcels. During the 5-10 year negotiation period with the railroad, Mr.
Klingelhutz and Mr. Sehlenk purchased the northerly parcel setting up.a whole
new round of legal and engineering questions. Finalize. ' g the city's right to Use
this property (water, U-ail, sign~ etc.) has not been a top'priority reco~ the
history of events and the fact that the two new owners needed to complete various
legal/engineering activities to ensure clean rifle. However, the city attorney, Mr.
Klingelhutz, and myself, believe that we cannot perpetuate problems. created by
the railroad (three changes in a .ttomeys at Roger's Offic,~ has not helped the
situation). Mr. Klingelhutz did own the pmpmW directly north-of the railroad
property at the time of the initial project (.mid-1980s) and .we did negotiate and
approve the acquisition of the e~mnd~ right-of-way across his property at a cost
-.
of $3.20 per square foot. '"
. . . ...
Current Position - The p~ed easi~nent area is'66' x 37' or 2:400 square feet
Both Mr. Klingelhutz and myself can identity comparable lafid sales at $10 per
square foot or more. I told A1 that I could not recommend payment Of $24,000.
He agreed, but was concerned that a lower amount may affe~ the future sale of .
the remainder (much larger) portion of the property. I offeaxxla compromi~.
which I would recxnnmend as a potential solution to our current dilemma, i.e. Mr.
Klingelhutz would donate the west~!y half of the 2,400 square foot parcel to the
city and we would pay $ I 0 l~r square foot for the' easterly 1,220 square feet of the

parcel [Note: Considering the $3,000 in attomeys/engixteering fees paid by Mr. Klingelhutz, the
net mount being paid by the EDA is approximately $0.50 per square foot more than we paid to
virtually every property in the mid-1980s].
..
Recommendation - Approval of the attached C_nmat Of Easement is recommended with the
condition that the west half of the subject property be donated to the city and that the EDA will
purchase the east haifofthe property for $12,200. The city attorney's office has verified that the
property is unencumbered.

10% amortized over 30 years and a balloon paym~t'0f 100% of the outstanding
note after 15 years (see Attachment #1).

Dear Tom:
This will confirm our earlier conversation regarding the
procedure for payment of future rents for your Chanhassen
facility. Consistent with our earlier cprrespondence to all of
the tenants of the building, you should make all payments to
Kirt Properties, whose address is 39'50 Highway ~7, St. Louis Park
Minnesota 55416. .
.
According to the terms of your lease the monthly'payment fOr'the-
balance of 1991 will be $3,380.79, which includes your base rent
of $5.85/SF, $2.20/SF amortized leasehold improvements, '$1.30/SF
estimated taxes and $.90/SF CAM and .insurance. YoU will be
provided with a year-end accounting along with a bill for any
deficiency or a credit for any overage paid, based upon your
obligation to pay 21.6% of actual costs for taxes, insurance and
CAM. I set forth the calculations because I believe that the
Lease Addendum is somewhat confusing on its face. I was advised
that the intent was that your base rent be calculated on 3968 sq.
feet and that your CAM, taxes and insurance would be calculated
based on 21.6% of the total building square footage·
You have advised us that it will not be necessary to send
monthly statements, but that should any correspondence be
necessary, it should be addressed to you at the address above·
Since an agreement has now been reached regarding the
responsiility for the work performed by Gary Hoehn and/or his
subcontractors, there appears to be only the following items to
be satisfied:
·
Resurfacing of parking lot and removal of fence no later
than August 1, 1991. (Paragraph 1. of Lease Addendum)..
·
Signage above tenant's space as part of the exterior
improvements to be compIeted by September, 1991. (Paragraph
5. of Lease Addendum). The sign you now have above your
entrance is, I understand, considered a temporary sign.
·
-2-
·
Determining Toll's contribution toward the cost of screening
the southeast corner of the building· This is the area
where Toll installed a vent as required by the City. Tom
Muehlberg was prepared to have the plantings replaced prior
to occupancy (which was a condition the City placed on its
permitting installation of your sign on the south side)·
However, the City required much more extensive screening
than the anticipated replacing of the previously existing
shrubs and it was decided that the screening would be
undertaken as a part of the overall landscaping, building
exterior, signage and parking area plan.
We already have invested a great deal of time in developing a
plan which will satisfy the City's requirements and are in the
process of having the initial plans for the parking lot, the
signage and the landscaping revised for presentation to the City.
We are working toward meeting the deadlines set forth in the
lease; however, current plans for the City's involvement may
require scheduled hearings before City and/or HRA commitments
can be finalized. The timetable at this po/nt is extremely
tight.
I
As we have discussed with'Tom Muelberg, however, while the city's
interest and involvement in the process may make the completion
take longer, the final result will be a much more aesthetically
pleasant site.
We have enjoyed having a part in bringing 'Toll Company to
Chanhassen and wish you a very successful venture. If you have
any questions, please be sure to call.
Yours truly,
Vernelle Clayton

Minnesota, or its assigns ("Holder"), at its office at 690 Coulter Drive, ~sen,
Minnesota 55317, or such other place as Holder, or its assigns, may from time to _time
designate, the principal sum of Eight Hundred Twenty Thousand and No/100 Dollars
($820,000.00) and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance, from the date
hereof until this Note is fully paid, at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. Both
the principal balance and interest thereon shall be payable in coin or curren~ which at
the time of pa}tm_ ent is legal tender for the payment of public or private debts in the
United States Of ,America.
.Commencing February 1, 1998 payments of principal and interest in the amount
of Seven Thousand Two Hundred Forty-eight and 75/100 Dollars ($7,248.75) shall be
made monthly on the first day of each month on the assumed amortization of thirty
(30) years. Said payments of principal and interest on that basis shall continue on the
first day of each month until February 1, 2013.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the entire
outstanding principal balance of Six Hundred Sixty-one Thousand Six Hundred
Fourteen and 80/100 Dollars ($661,614.80), together with accrued interest and any
other amounts due hereunder, shall be due and payable in full on February 1, 2013.
In the event that Borrower shall voluntarily or involuntarily cause, suffer or permit
any mortgage, pledge, encumbrance or lien, other than a lien being contested by
appropriate legal proceedings, to be imposed or remain outs .rending on the Premises or
the granting of any security interest therein, except as granted in connection with the
Mortgage and this Note and except as set forth in Exhibit "A" attached hereto, without
the written consent of Holder being first obtained, then at the sole option of Holder,
Holder may declare the entire amount of unpaid principal and accrued intent due and
payable in full and call for payment of the same in full at once. However, in the
event of a transfer or conveyance of the Premises (as defined herein) by Holder as
permitted under Section 1.6 of the Mortgage (described herein) the entire outstanding
principal balance of Seven Hundred Seventy-two Thousand Seven Hundred Six and
63/100 Dollars ($772,706.63) evidenced by this Note shall be due and payable in full
on February 1, 2005.
The outstanding principal balance evidenced by this Note may be prepaid in full
or in part without penalty or premium at any time during the term of this Note. Any
prepayment shall be made on thirty (30) days advance written notice to Holder.
Partial prepayments shall be applied against the outstanding principal balance of this
Note and shall not extend or postpone the due date of any subsequent monthly
installments or change the amount of such installments unless Holder shall agree
otherwise in writing.
Per diem interest shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360)
day year but shall be payable on the actual days elapsed during the term of this Note.
This Note is secured by a Mortgage dated of even date herewith (the
"Mortgage") by which Borrower has granted to Holder a ftrst mortgage lien on and
security interest in the premises, as therein defined, located in Carver County,
Minnesota (the "Premises"). The terms of the Mortgage securing this Note are
incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. A default under the terms
of any said instrument shall be deemed an event of default under the terms of this
Note.
It is agreed that time is of the essence in the performance of this Note. Upon
the occurrence of an event of default in the payment of principal or interest hereon or
upon the occurrence of any other event of default hereunder or in the Mortgage,
Holder shall have the right and option to declare, without notice, all remaining unpaid
principal and accrued interest evidenced by this Note immediately due and payable.
Holder may exercise this option to accelerate at any time during the occurrence of any
event of default described above regardless of any forbearance by Holder.
Any monthly installment payment not made by Borrower within twenty (20)
days of the due date shall be subject to a late payment charge equal to five percent
(5 %) of the monthly payment. The late charge shall apply individually to all
payments past due and there will be no daily adjustment and shall be used to defray
the costs of Holder incident to collecting such late payment. This provision shall not
be deemed to excuse a late payment or be deemed a waiver of any other rights Holder
may have, including the right to declare the entire unpaid principal and interest
immediately due and payable.
All payments made under this Note shall be applied frrst to interest, second to
any late charges due hereunder, and then to principal, except that if any advances
4~2z0 2
made by Holder due to the occurrence of an event of default hereunder or under the
terms of any instrument securing the Note are not repaid on demand, any moneys
received, at the option of Holder, may first be applied to repay such advances and the
balance, if any, shall be applied on account of any installments then due.
Upon the occurrence of an. event of default.as described above and if the same
is referred to an attorney for collection or any action at law or in equity is brought
with respect hereto, Borrower shall pay Holder all expenses and costs of collection,
including but not limited to attorneys' fees.
Borrower, all guarantors and all other persons liable for all or any pan of, the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note severally waive presentment for payment, protest
and notice of nonpayment and dishonor. From time to time, without affecting the
obligations of Borrower under this Note and the Mortgage, and without giving notice
to or obtaining the consent of Borrower or such guarantors, and without liability on
the pan of Holder, Holder may, at Holder's option, extend the time for payment of
sums due under this Note, reduce payments thereon, release anyone liable for the
payment of any portion of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, accept a renewal
of the Note, modify the terms and time of payment of the indebtedness evidenced by
this Note, join in any extension or subordination agreeme.nt, take or release' other or
additional security, and agree in writing with Borrower to modify the. rate of interest
or period of amortization of this Note or change the amount of the monthly
installments payable hereunder.
All agreements between Holder and Borrower are hereby expressly limited so
that in no contingency or event whatsoever, by reason of acceleration of maturity of
the indebtedness evidenced hereby or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be
paid to Holder for the use, forbearance, loaning or detention of the indebtedness
evidenced hereby exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law. If from any
circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provisions hereof or of the Mortgage
shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then the obligation
to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduc~ to the limit of such validity and if from
any circmnstances Holder should ever receive as interest an amount which would
exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be in excess of such highest
lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced hereby,
to the payment of interest or returned to Borrower, at the option of Holder. This
provision shall control every other provision of all agreements between Borrower and
Holder and shall also be binding upon and available to any subsequent holder or
endorsee of this Note.
,~32zu 3
No delay or omission on the part of Holder in exercising any right hereunder
shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any ot~er remedy under this Note. A
waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such
right or remedy on a future occasion.
The remedies of Holder, as provided herein and in the Mortgage, shall be
cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued singularly, successively Or together at
the sole discretion of Holder and may be exercised as often as the occasion therefor
shall arise.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event of defaglt
under this Note, the Borrowers liability to Holder or the liability of any assignee of
the Borrower under this Note shall be limited to a maximum sum of One Hundred
Thirty-five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($135,000.00) and shall only arise after
Holder has foreclosed its interest in the Premises at a sheriff's sale.
In the event Borrower sells, conveys, transfers, further mortgages or encumbers
or disposes of the Premises, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, or agrees so
to do, or in the event that any interest in the Premises is sold, conveyed, transferred,
mortgaged or encumbered without the written consent of Holder being first obtained
(or except as provided in section 1.6 of the Mortgage), then at the sole option of
Holder, Holder may declare the entire amount of unpaid principal and accrued interest
due and payable in full and call for payment of the same in full at once.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Note as of the
