Purchase Agreements -Chan Bowl Property
Attached hereto is our comparison of the Purchase Agreements of Big Bear, LLC and
Kraus-Anderson, Inc. for the Chan Bowl property owned by the Economic
Development Authority in and for the City of Chanhassen ("EDA"). As you can see,
there is a difference in the purchase price and some of the obligations of the City, i.e.
cost of survey, etc. (see Attachment #1). There also is a difference in that Kraus-
Anderson intends to develop only the Chan Bowl property, the land next to the theater,
the Bloomberg parcel, and to reconfigure the parking area and SOuthwest Metro Park:
and Ride area; wherein the Big Bear plan involves other properties and'is a much
larger parcel or, ned by additional parties, and involves demolishing additional
buildings; therefore, some of the terms are different and the Big Bear, LLC agreement
requires more involvement of the City. ~
Depending on which Purchase Agreement the EDA intends to proceed with, we would
recommend that prior to signing either agreement, the parties should be required to
provide evidence that they have the financial capabilities to perform under the terms of
their respective Purchase Agreement, i.e. they should provide financial statements on
the entity signing the Purchase Agreement, names of shareholders, and descriptions of
other projects they have developed, etc. We also believe that there should be specific
timelines established for the party to perform such as (i) approve title and survey
matters, (ii) approve environmental and soil testing, (iii) acquire other property
necessary for the proposed development of the respective project, (iv) obtain any
required financing for the project, (v) file all necessary applications for zoning and
development with the City. If the Buyer fails to meet the proposed timelines, the EDA
should then have the right to terminate the Agreement and refund any the earnest
money. Once the EDA determines which proposal they would like to see proceed, we
should meet with the party selected to fine tune the purchase agreement before it is
executed.

Parameters for the Redevelopment of the "Bowl" Property
1. Turn the property quickly.
2. Staff told the EDA that it would take a minimum of two years to see the site
developed (March 2001).
3. Use of the property was a concern.
4. Mitigate the risk of additional expenses.
5. Today's market (retail) is slow at best.
Big Bear
Pros
Extra $100',000 purchase price
Assuming Bloomberg Companies
is a part of "Big Bear", they could
easily purchase Outlot B,
Bloomberg Addition and other
small outlots (C, D & walkway).
Addresses future Dinner Theater
redevelopment.
Coils
They have not addressed Southwest
Metro's Park and Ride needs (with the
exception of a parking ramp). Staff
believes it would take 2-3 years to build a
parking ramp. That if, SW Metro is
successful in receiving a grant in 2002.
Their proposal is more "complicated" and
would need an extended period of time to
complete.
Their proposal would also take years for
the development to occur. No specific
deadlines that will impact city holding
costs and loss of future taxes on KA
development.
Big Bear would have to address
acquisition of Easy Rider property
currently owned by the City and SW
Metro's permanent easement.

Bowling Alley Site
Pursuant to earlier discussions, I am enclosing herewith a copy of a very preliminary massing
sketch of the 'Bowling .a51ey Site and the adjacent parcels. The sketch is intended as a
representational drawing to reflect the potential capacity of the site for a variety of uses. It is
also intended to be a visual depiction of the need to design the Bowling Alley Site as a part of
the whole in order to preserve the full development potential.
No proposed changes are reflected regarding Country Suites or the High Timber Lounge and
the only change to the Cinema reflects an example of how an addition could be made.
Bloomberg Companies is cooperating in the process that will be undertaken to develop a
specific plan tbr the Bowling Site which will be compatible with both the existing and future
development of the overall site. And, it is the intent of the purchaser that the Bowling portion
will be the fa'st portion to be redeveloped.
As to how the sketch reflects the Bloomberg properties to the east, it is important that anyone
viewing this sketch understands that although Bloomberg Companies has not had an
opportunity tbr input to the planner'regarding their long term plans nor have they reviewed this
plan or any other plan with their tenants. Nothing in these drawings is to be construed as in any
way jeopardizing the rights of existing tenants in existing buildings to continue their peaceful
enjoyment and use of the property. It is merely presented to illustrate development potential on
the site.
tt is equally important to understand that this sketch does not necessarily represent any specific
plan for any other specific part of the property.
Suffice to say the release of this sketch could have a very unproductive outcome and we
respectfully request that there be no reproduction or public distribution of this sketch drawing
unless authorized by Lotus and Bloomberg Companies.

Re: Chanhassen Urban Infill and Redevelopment Project
Dear Vernelle:
Hammel, Green and Abrahamson, Inc. is pleased to submit this proposal for professional services for the
above referenced project. Urban infill and redevelopment is a specialty of our urban planning practice and a
service that we have strong experience with in the Twin Cities and throughout the Midwest.
Successful revitalization of any project of this scale and complexity requires a collaborative approach and a
team (client and consultant) committed to delivering all aspects necessary to redevelopment. HGA has the
capacity and expertise needed to complete the initial planning and urban design work as welt as all facets of
the project including architecture, engineering, cost estimating, project management, and construction
administration. We also work with a variety of specialized consultants such as markefffinancial analysts
and traffic/transportation planners that may be needed for your project.
Our proposal is highlighted by:
o Senior'level urban designers, planners and managers experienced with mixed-use, urban redevelopment
projects supplemented with architects, landscape architects, civil and structural engineers.
o A team very experienced with working with local officials through the approval process of Plan
Commissions, City Council, staff review and public presentations.
o A local and firm-wide base of resources that have designed theatre/performing arts centers, corporate offices,
retail and mixed-use buildings, medical/healthcare facilities, light rail/transit stations as well as parking
structures, hotels, restaurants and urban housing.
o The ability to work in a confidential manner and coordinate in a consensus-building method with the key
stakeholders on a regular basis.
We have assembled a team that will be able to address all the key factors and provide solutions based on
your collective goals and expectations. The result will be a conceptual master plan that meets an agreed-to
development program, is feasible from a phasing and financial point, meets the requirements of the City
and responds to the charadter and uses throughout and adjacent to the site.
We think this is a great opportunity to create a unique, mixed use center in the heart of Chanhassen that will
define a true place for people to live, work, shop, play and serve as a transit hub. We are very interested in
this project and how we can help make it a success. Thank you for this opportunity to propose services;
please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information.
Sincerely,
Project Director

Summary of Project Understand|ng
We understand you and your
stakeholders want to prepare a
redevelopment plan for a key site
in the Chanhassen central
business district. A focus of this
plan will be to gain acceptance
and eventual approval from the
City in order to move toward
implementation, infill and
redevelopment. You have
identified a variety of uses and
multiple sites that make up the
project area and wish that they be
planned and designed from an
integrated, ~vholistic perspective.
This approach would necessarily
view the collection of uses and
sites as a sum that together
provides a greater value to the site
than each use individually.
We have visited the project area
and understand the various
components of the site. From our
visit and discussions with 7ou we
make the following observations:
· West 78"' acts as the 'main street' and will
provide primary access into the site.
"Great Plains Boulevard from Hwy 5 acts
as a 'gateway' to the site.
"Topography in the south portions of the
site provides an opportu nity to'tuck-in' a
parking structure that would relate to
multiple levels.
· An abundance of surface parking exists
now that is not being used most efficiently
and presents an opportunityas building
sites through the use of shred parking
arrangements.
· The rail line is an active freight line (and
potential commuter line) that acts as the
western boundary of the site.
· A Southwest Metro park and ride stop is
located on-site near Market 8oulevard;
this transit function must remain but may
be considered in another location.
· The Country Suites Hotel and Cinema are
proposed to remain; all other uses on-site
(Frontier Building, Dinner Theatre and
other retail uses) may be removed to
accommodate the long-term vision for
the site.
· You made reference to a housing
component on the west portions of the
site (west of the cinema); we would also
suggest considering the east portions of
the site (e.g., the dinner theatre parking)
as residential use. This particular area isa
"quieter" area, elevated above the rail
line, and could work (i.e., simila r scale
and use) with the city-owned parcel, east
side of Great Plains Boulevard.
· This would place an emphasis on the west
portions of site as retail/service and office
uses.
· We thinkthat havingthe dinner theater at
the center of the site, on the 'main street',
and situated on a town green or park, that
may also have a relation ship to the
cinema (i.e., an entertainment "core")
could be a strong solution for redevelop-
merit and for creating an active, people
oriented place.
These represent how we under-
stand and how we are beginning to
think about this project. We realize
that the desired program must
~vork in concert and respond to a
feasible phasing and development
schedule. And that ~ve must work
with you to determine the appro-
priate solution for all the stakehold-
ers.

West Side Flats
Saint Pau~ Minnesota
A new urban neighborhood for
Saint Paul is being envisioned on
the Mississippi River that clearly
articulates the "Saint Paul on the
Mississippi Development Frame-
work". The new neighborhood is a
mixed use urban village where
people will live and work in the
context o f the downtown.
The plan seeks to create a bal-
anced, sustainable place that
incorporates the environment, the
economy and the community into
a riverfront neighborhood. The
physical plan for the area recog-
nizes the historic grid of streets and
will contain over 900 new housing
units and a central neighborhood
park fronted by townhomes and
apartments. The plan also includes
corporate offices, high-end
riverfront condominiums and
restaurant/entertainment uses.
The West Side Flats site contains a
high quality public realm, a
diversity of housing types, corpo-
rate and community uses, and a
strong relationship to the Missis-
sippi River and the greater West
Side neighborhood.

Clover Fields
Neighborhood Development Plan
Chm~, Minnesota
Clover Fields is a 48 acre new
traditional neighborhood develop-
ment that will include a wide
variety and mix of residential,
commercial, community and park
uses surrounding the new
Cloveridge Elementary School.
The new neighborhood was
planned in response to develop-
ment guidelines prepared by the
Cio/ofChaska's Planning and
Development Department to
demonstrate principles of Smart
Growth, sustainable development
and "green" building through the
application of traditional town
planning principles.
A mixed use commercial/apart-
ment building will anchor one
corner of the town center across
from the school and communi .ty
building. All units are organized
around a neighborhood green.
A major design feature of the plan
is a prominent public realm of
connected parks, open space
(including a regional trail segment),
sidewalks and pedestrian paths that
accommodate convenient move-
ment throughout the neighbor-
hood.

A unique aspect of the plan is the
use of modular building technology
to provide a range and variety of'
residential types, prices and sizes.
The neighborhood includes almost
400 residential units from rental
apartments and rowhouses to small
and medium lot single family units
and for-sale townhouses.
Chanhassen Urban Infill and Redevelopment Project
Grand Forks Corporate Center
Gramt ?orks, North Dakota
Do~vntown Grand Forks encoun-
tered major destruction after the
spring flood and fire of~997. The
city of Grand Forks developed this
project to reestablish the down-
town core as a major place to do
business.
The Grand Forks Corporate
Center includes one five level
building ofTo,ooo sF and one three
level building of3o,ooo sF. The
two buildings are attached by a
skyway and are connected to a new
40o car-parking structure. Grand
Forks' largest bank (First National
Bank of Grand Forks), their largest
accounting firm (Brady Martz and
Associates) and their largest law
firm (Camrud Maddock Olson and
Larsen) will be located in the
larger, five level building and the
3o,ooo sF building will house
several smaller tenants. The
complex is scheduled to open in
the spring of 1999, only two years
after the disaster.
The intersecnon of Fourth and
Demers was selected as the project
site as it was the former address of
the three dislocated tenants. Also,
this location is a logical center city
axis as Demers is a major east-west
thoroughfare and Fourth Street is a
connector of important public
buildings.
A corner tower was built which
anchors the Fourth and Demers
intersection and serves as a beacon
visible from the river and also upon
approaching downtown from the
west.- The limestone colored
precast base, and the red brick and
glass to,vet respect the historic
character of downtown while
creating a progressive corporate
identity for the tenants. A public
lobby, clearly articulated at the
street level, serves the larger
building and a grand staircase
connects the first two levels of the
building creating easy skyway
access. Large windows at the street
level enhance the building's
pedestrian presence and provide
daylight deep into the office space.
The upper level will include a view
of the river and a two level corner
conference room.
This complex is already serving as
a catalyst for new downtown
development and has positioned
the city and the building tenants as
leaders in the rebuilding of Grand
Forks.

Gap
Mim~ea?olis, Minnesota
In designing the new Gap store at
Hennepin Avenue and Lake Street
in Minneapolis, we faced the task
of creating a polite yet challenging
building for one of the most
vibrant corners in the Twin Cities
area. The building had to be both
historically-sensitive, yet dynamic
and fashionable in order to
succeed in a highly competitive
setting.
The design features two-story
windows with soaring views that
allow the entrance of light into the
public areas of the building.
Inspired by Madison Avenue in
New York, display spaces on both
floors were created to add a sense
of complexity and allure to the
objects and activities within.

Myles Reif Performing
Arts Center
Grand Rapids, ~innesota
Surrounded by magnificent pine
~voods, the Myles Reif Per~-brming
Arts Center is an addition to an
existing senior high school. The
Performing Arts Center is the
result of an unusual collaboration
between a community arts associa-
tion and the school district;
facilities are utilized for theatrical
and musical productions by both
groups.
Entry, to the site is a long narro~v
curving road through a forest of
Nonvay and white pines. The Arts
Center, set at a 45 degree angle to
the existing high school, provides a
new image for the complex. Its
cedar wood siding forms a theatri-
cal banner relating the structure to
the wooded surroundings and
stands as an announcement of
special community activities.
Below the banner, glass walls
enclose lobby spaces affording
views of forest and also a glow of
activity as one approaches the
theater for evening performances.
The major performing space is a
theater with fixed seating for 630,
capable of increasing to 700 with
moveable seating. A minimum
stagehouse for "tripped" scenery is
used for proscenium productions
and the fiat floor provides for
construction of a unitized raised
thrust stage.
Flexible theatrical lighting, an
extensive cat~valk system, adjust-
able light ports and side lighting
balconies give this theater a quality
lighting system. Acoustically, the
theater is "tuneable", incorporat-
ing adjustable fabric banners and
removable sound-reflecting baffles.
The exterior wood is carried into
the interior through lobby ceilings
and forms the interior theater
walls.

Proposed Purchase by Kraus-Anderson, Incorporated
Todd:
Attached are the site plans and elevations for the proposed development of the
Chanhassen Bowling Alley Site. It is our intention to purchase the site, raze the existing
structure, and redevelop it into a mixed-use site consisting of 28,000 square 'feet of retail
on the first level with two floors o£residential above. There are 48 units of market rate
housing proposed. The north elevation entrance and parking area are dedicated to the
residential units. There is also one level of underground parking below the building for
the residents of the housing. The south and west sides of the site will service the
commercial retail space. The tenant mix of the retail will probably consist of between 10
and 15 small users.
We have had preliminary discussions with the SW Metro Transit and they have agreed to
this layout and reconfiguration of the parking and circulation. We are excited about
working with you in this project and are optimistic about the potential it holds.
Sincerely,
Scott Sclunitt, CCIM

Consider Resolution Adopting the Modification to the
Redevelopment Plan, Establishing TIF District No. 8,
Presbyterian Homes
Under Minnesota Statute, the EDA must adopt the Modification to the
Redevelopment Plan for the Downtown Chanhassen Redevelopment area;
modify the Tax Increment Financing Plan for the Downtown Chanhassen Tax
Increment Financing District; establish Tax Increment Financing District No. 8
(within the Downtown Chanhassen Redevelopment Project area); and adopt the
Tax Increment Financing Plan for the Presbyterian Homes, Villages on the
Ponds development.
The approval of this TIF Plan would allow for the city to collect the new taxes
generated from this development. The new taxes would then be used to create
36 affordable senior rental units within the 151-unit Presbyterian Homes
Apartment complex in the Villages on the Ponds.
This TIF District is called a "Housing District," which requires at least 20% of
the units to be affordable to persons at 50% or less of median income. The
36-units would be located in the independent living building, would have rent of
$725 per month, and would be one bedroom units.
By approving this plan modification, the EDA is not approving the amount of
assistance to this project, but creating the district so that the city can collect the
new taxes. At a future date, the EDA would enter into a Development
Agreement with Presbyterian Homes to determine the amount of assistance is
warranted for this project.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff would recommend approving the Resolution Adopting the Modification to
the Redevelopment Plan, Establishing TIF District No. 8, Presbyterian Homes.

RESOLUTION NO.
RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE MODIFICATION TO THE
REDEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE DOWNTOWN CHANHASSEN
REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA; AND THE MODIFICATION TO THE
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN FOR THE DOWNTOWN
CHANHASSEN TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT; AND
ESTABLISHING TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT NO. 8 (WITHIN
THE DOWNTOWN CHANHASSEN REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA)
AND ADOPTING THE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN THEREFOR.
WHEREAS, it has been proposed by the Board of Commissioners (the "Board") of the
Chanhassen Economic Development Authority (the "EDA") and the City of Chanhassen (the "City") that
the EDA adopt a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for the Downtown Chanhassen Redevelopment
Project Area, and a Modification to the Tax Increment Financing Plan for the Downtown Chanhassen Tax
Increment Financing District, and establish Tax Increment Financing District No. 8 (the "District") and
adopt the Tax Increment Financing Plan therefor, (collectively, the" " '
Mod~ficatmns and Plan"), all
pursuant to and in conformity with applicable law, including Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.090
thro,tgh 469.1081, and Sections 469.174 to 469.179, inclusive, as amended (the "Act"), all as reflected in
the Modifications and Plan and presented for the Board's consideration; and .
WHEREAS, the ~EDA has investigated the facts relating to the Modifications and Plan and has
caused the Modifications and Plan to be prepared; and
WHEREAS, the EDA has performed all actions required by law to be performed prior to the
adoption of the Modifications and Plan. The EDA has also requested the City Planning Commission to
provide for review of and ;vritten comment on Modifications and Plan and that the Council schedule a
public hearing on the Modifications and Plan upon published notice as required by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board as follows:
1. The EDA hereby finds that Tax Increment Financing District No. 8 is in the public
interest and is a "housing district" under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subd. 11, and finds that the
adoption of the proposed Modifications and Plan conform in all respects to the requirements of the Act
and will help fulfill a need to develop an area of the State of Minnesota which is already built up and that
the adoption of the proposed Modifications and Plan will help provide employment opportunities in the
State and in the preservation and enhancement of the tax base of the City and the State because it will
discourage commerce and industry from moving their operations to another state or municipality and
thereby serves a public purpose.
2. The EDA further finds that the Modifications and Plan will afford maximum opportunity,
consistent with the sound needs for the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of the
project area by private enterprise in that the intent is to provide only that public assistance necessary to
make the private developments financially feasible.
3. Conditioned upon the approval thereof by the City Council following its public hearing
thereon, thc Modifications and Plan, as presented to thc EDA on this date, arc hereby approved,
established and adopted and shall be placed on file in the office of the City Manager.
4. Upon approval of the Modifications and Plan by the City Council, the staff, the EDA's
advisors and legal counsel are authorized and directed to proceed with the implementation of the
Modifications and Plan and for this purpose to negotiate, draft, prepare and present to this Board for its
consideration all further plans, resolutions, documents and contracts necessary for this purpose. Approval
of the Modifications and Plan does not constitute approval of any project or a Development Agreement
with any developer.
5. Upon approval of the Modifications and Plan by the City Council, the City Manager is
authorized and directed to forward a copy of the Modifications and Plan to the Minnesota Department of
Revenue pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 469.175, subdivision 2.
6. The City Manager is authorized and directed to forward a copy of the Modifications and
Plan to the Carver County Auditor and request that the Auditor certify the original tax capacity of the
District as described in the Modifications and Plan, all in accordance with Minnesota Statutes 469.177.
Approved by the Board of Commissioners of the Chanhassen Economic Development Authority

all tax increment financing districts to the Office of the State Auditor, County Board, County Auditor and
School Board on or before Au~gust 1 of each year. M.S., Section ~t69.175, Subd. 5 also provides that an
annual statement shall be publts.'hed in anewspaper of general circulation in the City o~ or before August 15.

distribution of tax increment from the District,
Subsection 3-27. Reasonable Expectations
As required by the Tax Increment Fjj.~m~cing Act, in establishing the District, the determination has been
made that the anticipated development would not reasonably be expected to occur solely through private
investment within the reasonab!y foreseeable future and that the increased market value of the site that could
reasonably be expected to occqr without the use of tax increment financing would be less than the increase
in the market value estimated to,' result from the proposed development after subtracting the present value of
the projected tax increments fo/- the maximum duration of the District permitted by the Plan. In making said
determination, reliance has beeh placed upon written representatives made by the developer to such effects
and upon EDA and City staff awaren.ess of the feasibility of developing the project site. A comparative
analysis of estimated market valaes b.'oth with and without establishment of the District and the use of tax
increments has been performed'as desqrtbed above. Such analysis ~s included withthe cashflow in Appeudix
D, and indicates that the increafie in es}imated market value of the proposed development (less the indicated
subtractions) exceeds the estimated market value of the site absent the estahlishmet~t of the District and the
use of tax increments. ,
Subsection 3-28, Other I.tirnitatlons on the Use of Tax Increment
1. G_eJn. eral Lhnitation_s. All r(~venue derived from tax increment shall be used in notre'dance with the plan.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The District is being created! to facilitate a senior housing project to be owned by a local no~-profit
organization and will include !,000 s.f. of retail, 90 units for independent living, 56 units of assisted living,
and 1 g units of memory care in the Chanhassen. Contracts for this have not been entered into at the time of
preparation of this Plan, but tl~e date when development is likely to occur is the Spring of. 2002.
The proposed agreement with :the non-profit housing developer is to provide assistance on a pay-as-you-go
basis for a period of approxitnately 5 to 10 years. The City may us~ tax increments fi'om this development
to assist other affordable housing proposals including both owner-occupied or rental housing projects outside

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor
City Council
FROM: Bruce M. DeJong, Finance Director
DATE: October 29, 2001
SUBJECT: Debt Study Update
The attached infoimation from Ehlers, Inc. summarizes the position of the debt
service funds that are open at this time. The individual fund balances were
updated after the audit was completed. The information enclosed provides an
accurate picture of the total debt position of the city of Chanhassen. Mark. Ruff
will be present on Thursday evening to discuss the information and its
implications regarding tax levies and debt burden in the future
This study identifies areas where we may accomplish'several objectives that meet
both council and staff goals. The early redemption of several bond issues will
save the city' money that would be paid for high interest rates. It will also require
the use of general city monies up front. This money could come from several
sources that we have discussed previously, but the one that stands out is to reduce
the general fund balance to pay bonds that require current and future tax levies.
This achieves the council goal of lowering current tax levies while spending some
of the fund balance on a one-time appropriation as staff has advocated. The bonds
to be paid with general fund monies would be the 1988 Fire Station and
Equipment Bonds (Fund 316) and the 1989C Corporate Purpose Bonds (Fund
323). These funds would require the infusion of$418,050, but we would
eliminate the 6.5% to 7.2% interest payments that would otherwise be required
through the next several years.
This study has also proposes to call several issues that were previously identified
as having misallocated special assessments. The projects in question were bonded
for in two separate issues, but the assessments have been credited to only one
fund. Rather than trying to recode assessments and restate the balance sheet, we
propose to close the funds that received the extra assessments and transfer the
money to the funds in deficit. We could call the 1993C G.O. Improvement Bonds
(Fund 331) and then use the $971,373 remaining balance to cover calling the
1992A G.O. Improvement Bonds (Fund 310). An additional $650,000 would be
required to fund that transaction which staffproposes to come from the Historic
Preservation Trust.

Finally, the 1991E G.O. Refunding issue has sufficient funds on hand to pay its
remaining debt and have $56,447 in remaining balance. Staff proposes that
money to go toward the closed bond fund to be used for revolving loan purposes.
This study has implications for the 2002 tax levy. The city can pay down
additional debt, reduce the general fund balance back to a more appropriate level
and reduce next year's tax levy at the same time. By taking these steps, we can
assure the taxpayers that the city is indeed being fiscally prudent.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Bruce Dejong, City of Chanhassen
FROM:
Mark Ruff- Ehlers & Associates
DATE:
September 24, 2001
RE: Debt Study
Instead of merely providing a revised levy schedule, I have included updated copies of all of the
spreadsheet along with an issue by issue set of recommendations and considerations.
Please review carefully and call me with a date in which we can sit down and finalize the levy schedule
for 2002 and look ahead to future years. Please note that included in these runs are the G.O. debt and
G.O. Improvement Debt.
Debt Supported Solely by Taxes
1988 G.O. Fire Station
The levy schedule has increased slightly on the issue for 2002 and 2003 due to a change in the amount of
cash balance shown in the updated audit. The ending balance is shown as slightly negative, but remember
that the debt projections are at 105% of actual debt service.
One consideration could be to refinance the debt under a current refunding and extend the principal out
several years, if the years 2002 through 2004 are seen as more critical given the uncertainty in the
property tax system.
Given the high interest rates, the City could also simply prepay the debt from cash balances and eliminate
the levy
1989C Corporate Purpose
The levy schedule has increased slightly on the issue for 2002 and 2003 due to a change in the amount of
cash balance shown in the updated audit. The ending balance is shown as slightly negative, but remember
that the debt projections are at 105% of actual debt service.
One consideration could be to refinance the debt under a current refunding and extend the principal out
several years, if the years 2002 through 2004 are seen as more critical given the uncertainty in the
property tax system.
Given the high interest rates, the City could also simply prepay the debt from cash balances and eliminate
the levy
1998A G.O. Park
We are recommending a decrease in the levy for taxes payable in 2002 due to the cash balance in the
fund. The lower levy will result in temporary negative cash balances after the February 1 payment of
each year, but the total levy will not need to increase over time.
2000 Lease Revenue Bonds
The levy schedule is left according to the resolution.
2001 Equipment Certificates
The levy schedule is left according to the resolution.
Debt Supported by Special Assessments and Taxes
1991E G.O. Improvement Refunding
The levy for payable 2002 can be cancelled and the debt has sufficient cash balances to call the remaining
$425,000 of principal as soon as possible. We should review the resolution to determine if the
prepayment can only be made on an interest payment date.
Action: Full call of principal in Fall, 2001
1992A G.O. Improvement
As we have discussed previously, it is our assumption that some of the assessment income which should
have been received by this fund was miscoded into the 1993C fund. Therefore, calling the 1993C bonds
and pledging the remaining balances and assessment income should allow the fund to be made whole atht
eh end of the term of the bonds. Given high interest rates, we would also recommend a partial call of the
1992A G.O. Improvement bonds, as long as the resolution allows the City to call any of the maturities in
part rather than the last maturity first and as long as the City's cash and investment schedule allows the
flexibility of cash available on those dates.
Action: Partial call of principal in Fall, 2001, pending review of bond resolution and city balances
1993C G.O. Improvement
As discussed under the 1992A bond section, the bonds should be called in the fall of 2001 for a
prepayment on February 1, 2002. The pre-payment will allow cash balances remaining in the fund to be
transferred to the 1992A G.O. Improvement fund.
Action: Full call of principal in Fail, 2001
1994A G.O. Refunding
Based upon our recent discussions, the negative cash balance for these bonds is carried in the tax
increment bonds section of the City accounting system. Therefore, no further adjustments to the levy
have been made.
1994B G.O. Improvement Refunding
The special assessments have all been paid for this debt and a tax levy is programmed to pay the
remaining maturities. No changes from the resolution levy have been made.
1995B G.O. Improvement
This bond issue had significant deficits which were mitigated by the high tax levy in 2001. The $381,874
projected tax levy could be delayed until 2004 if necessary.
Action: Consider delay of 2002 levy until 2004, if necessary.
1995C G.O. Improvement
This fund also appears to have not been allocated its share of special assessments due to its very high
deficits. We had previously adjusted the levy from the resolution to allow for the higher tax base in 2004
to pay for a tax levy to both make up lower than expected assessment revenues and lower levies in 2001
and 2002. We would recommend that the deficits be partially paid from the available cash balances and
future assessment income of the 1996B bonds.
1996B G.O. Improvement
This fund is complicated by three factors. First, it appears that there was too much in assessments
assigned to this fund which should have been assigned to the 1995C fund. Second, the call date is not
until February 1, 2004. Therefore any cash balances cannot be made available without significant
historical research or until the debt is defeased. Third, part of the income which was expected to be paid
to this bond issue was approximately $2.2 million from the county agreement (along with the 1996D
bonds) with on the use of"excess tax increments" from the City's pre-1979 districts. The availability of
county agreement funds depends upon the actual value of the tax increment districts after property tax
reform and it depends upon the City's efforts to retain tax increment from the pre-1979 district to pay
outstanding interfund loans.
It is generally our recommendation that the City defease this debt once a determination on the amount of
value from the pre-1979 districtis made this fall. If it is demonstrated that all projected coUnty agreement
funds would be necessary to pay the 1996D debt, the defeasance would allow the City to balance the bond
funds by transferring adequate dollars to the 1995C fund. This action is predicated on the availability of
cash given the City's investment portfolio and cash needs.
Action: Consider defeasance of issue, pending analysis, in fall, 2001.
1996D G.O. Improvement Capital Appreciation
These bonds were clearly intended to be paid with county agreement funds amounting to approximately
$3.9M. The 'projected deficit cannot be refinanced because the bonds are not callable. If county
agreement funds are not available, the levy for 2002 should be increased to cover a portion of the deficits
in this fund. If county agreement funds are available, the analysis should be undertaken to take payable
2001 receipts and projected 2002 through 2004 receipts against future debt service.
Action: Decide status of county agreement funds and adjust levy for 2002 accordingly.
1998B G.O. Improvement
No tax levy is necessary for debt service on the bonds, but the projected ending balances are extremely
high.
Action: Research levels of special assessment income to determine if any coding errors occured.
1999 G.O. Improvement
Slight adjustments to the levy in the later years of the bond issue were added for cash flow purposes. We
do not have project number information for the special assessment income and are using projections from
the original bond sale.
Action: Research special assessment projects to determine actual income for 2002 and beyond.
200lB G.O. Improvement
No changes to the levy were made from the resolution. After the projects are complete, the actual project
numbers should be added to this study.
