brougF�t fonNard by Daran Develapment to construct a 241-unit luxury �partment development,
including a 189-stall park and rid� and enhanced bicycle facilities. To make the project financially
feasible, given the high cost of redevelopmEnt and the unique design of this proje�t, the developer
has requested financial assistance in the form of Tax Increment Financing, or TIF.
It has been determined that the property qualifies as a TIF Redevelopment District and that the
project pro forma warrants the use of TIF. Documentation of thase #indings are included in the Tax
Increment Financing Plan attached to this report.
If TIF District 1-5 is appro�ed, a deuelopment agreement de�ailing the terms of the financial
assistance will be brought forward for consideration.

RESOLUTION ADOPTING A MODIFICATION TO THE REDEVELOPMENT
PLAN FOR REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT NO.1; AND ESTABLISffiNG TAX
INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT NO. 1-5 (THE MOLINE) THEREIN AND
ADOPTING A TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN THEREFOR.
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council (the "Council") of the City of Hopkins, Minnesota (the
"City"), as follows:
Section 1. Recitals
1.01. The Board of Commissioners of the Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority (the
"HRA") has heretofore established Redevelopment Project No. 1 and adopted the Redevelopment Plan
therefor. It has been proposed by the HRA and the City that the City adopt a Modification to the
Redevelopment Plan for Redevelopment Proj ect No. 1(the "Redevelopment Plan Modification") and
establish Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 The Moline (the "District") therein and adopt a Tax
Increment Financing Plan (the "TIF Plan") therefor (the Redevelopment Plan Modification and the TIF
Plan are referred to collectively herein as the "Plans"); all pursuant to and in conformity with applicable
law, including Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.001 to 469.047 and Sections 469174 to 4691794, all
inclusive, as amended, (the "Act") all as reflected in the Plans, and presented for the Council's
consideration.
1.02. The HRA and City ha�e investigated the facts relating to the Plans and have caused the
Plans to be prepared.
1.03. The HRA and City have performed all actions required by law to be performed prior to
the establishment of ihe District and the adoption and approval of the proposed Plans, including, but not
limited to, notification of Hennepin County and Independent School District No. 270 ha�ing ta�ng
jurisdiction over the property to be included in the District, a review of and written comment on the Plans
by the City Planning Commission on January 26, 2016, approval of the Plans by the HRA on February 2,
2016, and the holding of a public hearing upon published notice as required by law.
1.04. Certain written reports (the "Reports") relating to the Plans and to the activities
contemplated therein have heretofore been prepared by staff and consultants and submitted to the Council
and/or made a part of the City files and proceedings on the Plans. The Reports, including the
redevelopment quali�cations reports and planning documents, include data, information and/or
substantiation constituting or relating to the basis for the other �ndings and determinations made in this
resolution. The Council hereby confirms, rati�es and adopts the Reports, which are hereby incorporated
into and made as fully a part of this resolution to the same extent as if set forth in full herein.
1.05 The City is not modifying the boundaries of Redevelopment Project No. 1, but is
however, modifying the Redevelopment Plan therefor.
Section 2. Findin�s for the Ado�tion and A�roval of ihe Redevelo�ment Plan Modification.
2.01. The Council approves the Redevelopment Plan Modification, and specifically finds that
(a) the land within the Project area would not be available for redevelopment without the financial aid to
be sought under this Redevelopment Plan; (b) the Redevelopment Plan, as modified, will afford
maximum opportunity, consistent with the needs of the City as a whole, for the development of the
Proj ect by private enterprise; and (c) that the Redevelopment Plan, as modified, conforms to the general
plan for the development of the City as a whole.
Section 3. Findin�s for the Establishment of Tax Increment Financin� District No. 1-5
3.01. The Council hereby finds that the District is in the public interest and is a"redevelopment
district" under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469174, Subd. 10(a)(1) of the Act.
3.02. The Council further finds that the proposed redevelopment would not occur solely
through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future and that the increased market value of
the site that could reasonably be expected to occur 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 for the maximum duration of the District
permitted by the TaY Increment Financing Plan, that the Plans conform to the general plan for the
development or redevelopment of the City as a whole; and that the Plans will afford maximum
opportunity consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment
of the District by private enterprise.
3.03. The Council further finds, declares and determines that the City made the above findings
stated in this Section and has set forth the reasons and supporting facts for each determination in writing,
attached hereto as Exhibit A.
3.04. The Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority elects to calculate fiscal disparities
for the District in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 469177, Subd. 3, clause b, which means
the �scal disparities contribution would be taken from inside the District.
Section 4. Public Pur�ose
4.01. The adoption of the Plans conforms in all respects to the requirements of ihe Act and will
help ful�ll a need to develop an area of the City which is already built up, to provide employment
opportunities, to improve the t� base and to improve the general economy of the State and thereby serves
a public purpose. For the reasons described in Exhibit A, the City believes these benefits directly derive
from the tax increment assistance provided under the TIF Plan. A private developer will receive only the
assistance needed to make this development financially feasible. As such, any private benefits received
by a developer are incidental and do not outweigh the primary public benefits.
Section 5. Approval and Ado�tion of the Plans
5.01. The Plans, as presented to the Council on this date, including without limitation the
findings and statements of objectives contained therein, are hereby approved, ratified, established, and
adopted and shall be placed on file in the office of the City Clerk.
5.02. The staff of the City, the City's advisors and legal counsel are authorized and directed to
proceed with the implementation of the Plans and to negotiate, draft, prepare and present to this Council
for its consideration all further plans, resolutions, documents and contracts necessary for this purpose.
5.03 The Auditor of Hennepin County is requested to certify the original net tax capacity of
the District, as described in the Plans, and to certify in each year thereafter the amount by which the
original net tax capacity has increased or decreased; and the Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment
Authority is authorized and directed to forthwith transmit this request to the County Auditor in such form
and content as the Auditor may specify, together with a list of all properties within the District, for which
building permits have been issued during the 18 months immediately preceding the adoption of this
resolution.
5.04. The City Clerk is further authorized and directed to file a copy of the Plans with the
Commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Revenue and the Office of the State Auditor pursuant to
Minnesota Statutes 469175, Subd. 4a.

EXHIBIT A
RESOLUTION NO. 2016-08
The reasons and facts supporting the findings for ihe adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan (TIF
Plan) for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (District), as required pursuant to Minnesota Statutes,
Section 469.175, Subdivision 3 are as follows:
Finding that Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 is a redevelopment district as defined in M.S.,
Section 469.174, Subd. 10(a)(1).
The District consists of one parcel, wiih plans to redevelop the area for housing purposes. At least 70
percent of the area of the parcels in the District are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, paved or
gravel parking lots or other similar structures and more than 50 percent of the buildings in the
District, not including outbuildings, are structurally substandard to a degree requiring substantial
renovation or clearance.
2. Finding that the proposed development, in the opinion of the City Council, would not reasonably be
expected to occur solely th�rough private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future and
that the increased market value of the site that could reasonably be expected to occur without the use
of ta� increment financing would be less than the increase in the market value estimated to result
fi^om the proposed development after subtracting the present value of the projected tax increments
for the ma�imum duration of the District permitted by the TIF Plan.
The proposed development, in the opinion of the City, would not reasonably be expected to occur
solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future: This finding is supported
by the fact that the redevelopment proposed in the TIF Plan meets the City's objectives for
redevelopment. Due to the high cost of redevelopment on the parcels currently occupied by
substandard buildings, and the need to construct a public parking facility for the future SWLRT line,
this project is feasible only through assistance, in part, from tax increment financing. The developer
was asked for and provided a letter and a proforma as justification that the developer would not have
gone forward without tax increment assistance.
The increased market value of the site that could reasonably be expected to occur without the use of
ta� increment financing would be less than the increase in market value estimated to result fi^om the
proposed development after subtracting the present value of the projected tc� increments for the
ma�imum duration of the District permitted by the TIF Plan: This �nding is justified on the grounds
that the cost of redeveloping the site, cost of public parking facility and required public
improvements add to the total redevelopment cost. Historically, site and public improvements costs
in this area have made redevelopment infeasible without tax increment assistance. The City
reasonably determines that no other redevelopment of similar scope is anticipated on this site without
substantially similar assistance being provided to the development.
Therefore, the City concludes as follows:
a. The City's estimate of the amount by which the market value of the entire District will increase
without the use of tax increment financing is $0.
b. If the proposed development occurs, the total increase in market value will be $33,652,000.
c. The present value of taY increments from the District for the maximum duration of the district
permitted by the TIF Plan is estimated to be $11,315,549..
d. Even if some development other than the proposed development were to occur, the Council finds
that no alternative would occur that would produce a market value increase greater than
$22,336,451 (the amount in clause b less the amount in clause c) without tax increment
assistance.
3. Finding that the TIF Plan for the District conforms to the general plan for the development or
redevelopment of the municipality as a whole.
The Planning Commission reviewed the TIF Plan and found that the TIF Plan conforms to the
general development plan of the City.
4. Finding that the TIF Plan for the District will afford ma�imum opportunity, consistent with the
sound needs of the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of Redevelopment Project
No. 1 by private enterprise.
The project to be assisted by the District will result in increased employment in the City and the
State of Minnesota, the redevelopment of a substandard property, increased tax base of the State,
increase in availability of safe and decent life-cycle housing and add a high quality development to
the City.

utilities and facilities; carry out land acquisition, site improvements, clearance and/or development to
accomplish the uses and objectives set forth in this plan. The HRA or City may acquire property by gift,
dedication, condemnation or directpurchase from willing sellers in order to achieve the objectives ofthis TIF
Plan. Such acquisitions will be undertaken only when there is assurance of funding to finance the acquisition
and related costs.
Subsection 2-6. Classification of the District
The HRA and City, in determining the need to create a tax increment �nancing district in accordance with
M.S., Sections 469.174 to 469.1794, as amended, inclusive, find that the District, to be established, is a
redevelopment district pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 10(a)(1) as defined below:
(a) "Redevelopmentdistrict"meansatypeofta�incrementfinancingdistrictconsistingofaproject,
or portions of a project, within which the authority finds by resolution that one or more of the
following conditions, reasonably disti^ibuted throughout the district, exists:
(1) parcels consisting of 70 percent of the area in the district are occupied by buildings, streets,
utilities, paved or gravel parking lots or other similar structures and more than SO percent
of the buildings, not including outbuildings, are sti^ucturally substandard to a degree
requiring substantial renovation or clearance;
(2) The property consists of vacant, unused, underused, inappropriately used, or infi^equently
used rail yards, rail storage facilities or excessive or vacated railroad rights-of-way;
(3) tankfacilities, orproperty whose immediatelyprevious use was for tankfacilities, as defined
in Section II SC, Subd. I5, if the tank facility:
(i) have or had a capacity of more than one million gallons;
(ii) are located adjacent to rail facilities; or
(iii) have been removed, or are unused, underused, inappropriately used or infi^equently
used,� or
(4) a qual�ing disaster area, as defined in Subd. IOb.
(b) For purposes of this subdivision, "structurally substandard" shall mean containing defects in
structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities andfacilities, light and
ventilation, fireprotection includingadequate egress, layoutandcondition ofinteriorpartitions,
or similar factors, which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to just�
substantial renovation or clearance.
(c) A building is notstructurally substandard if it is in compliance with the building code applicable
Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (The Moline) 2-2
to new buildings or could be modified to satisfy the building code at a cost of less than I S
percent of the cost of co�structing a�ew structure of the same square footage and type on the
site. The municipality may find that a building is not disqualified as structurally substandard
under the preceding sentence on the basis of reasonably available evidence, such as the size,
type, and age of the building, the average cost of plumbing, electi^ical, or structural repairs or
other similar reliable evidence. The municipality may not make such a determination without
an interior inspection of th�e property, but need not have an independent, expert appraisal
prepared of the cost of repair and rehabilitation of the building. An interior inspection of the
property is not required, if the municipality finds that (1) the municipality or authority is unable
to gain access to the property after using its best efforts to obtain permission fi^om the party that
owns or controls the property; and (2) the evidence otherwise supports a reasonable conclusion
that the building is structurally substandard.
(d) A parcel is deemed to be occupied by a sti^ucturally substandard building for purposes of the
finding under paragraph (a) or by the improvement described in paragraph (e) if all of the
following conditions are met:
(1) the parcel was occupied by a substandard building or met the requirements of paragraph
(e), as the case may be, within three years of the filing of the request for certification of the
parcel as part of the district with the county auditor;
(2) the substandard building or the improvements described in paragraph (e) were demolished
or removed by the authority or the demolition or removal was financed by the authority or
was done by a developer under a development agreement with the authority;
(3) the authority found by resolution before the demolition or removal that the parcel was
occupied by a str ucturally substandard building or met the requirement ofparagraph (e) and
that after demolition and clearance the authority intended to include the parcel within a
district,� and
(4) upon filing the request for certification of the ta� capacity of the parcel as part of a district,
the authority notifies the county auditor that the original ta� capacity of the parcel must be
adjusted as provided by � 469.177, subdivision 1, paragraph (�.
(e) For purposes of this subdivision, a parcel is not occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, paved
or gravel parking lots or other similar structures unless I S percent of the area of the parcel
contains buildings, streets, utilities, paved or gravel parking lots or other similar structures.
(� For districts consisting of two or more noncontiguous areas, each area must qual� as a
redevelopment district under paragraph (a) to be included in the disti^ict, and the entire area of
the district must satisfy paragraph (a).
In meeting the statutory criteria the HRA and City rely on the following facts and �ndings:
• The District is a redevelopment district consisting of four parcels.
• An inventory shows that parcels consisting of more than 70 percent of the area in the District are
occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, paved or gravel parking lots or other similar structures.
• An inspection of the buildings located within the District finds that more than 50 percent of the buildings
are structurally substandard as defined in the TIF Act. (See Appendix F).
• The City has passed a demolition resolution prior to certification of the District.
Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (The Moline) 2-3
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.176, Subd. 7, the District does not contain any parcel or part of a parcel that
qualified under the provisions ofM.S., Sections 273.111, 273.112, or 273.114 or Chapter 473Hfor taxes
payable in any of the �ve calendar years before the filing of the request for certi�cation of the District.
Subsection 2-7. Duration and First Year of Tax Increment of the District
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 1, and Section 469.176, Subd. 1, the duration and firstyear of tax
increment of the District must be indicated within the TIF Plan. Pursuant to M. S., Section 469.176, Subd. 1 b. ,
the duration of the District will be 25 years after receipt of the first increment by the HRA or City (a total of
26 years of tax increment). The HRA or City elects to receive the first tax increment in 2018, which is no
later than four years following the year of approval of the District. Thus, it is estimated that the District,
including any modifications of the TIF Plan for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after
2043, or when the TIF Plan is satis�ed. The HRA or City reserves the right to decertify the District prior to
the legally required date.
Subsection 2-8. Original Tax Capacity, Tax Rate and Estimated Captured Net Tax Capacity
Value/Increment and Notification of Prior Planned Improvements
Pursuant to M. S., Section 469.174, Subd. 7 and M. S., Section 469.177, Subd. l, the Original Net Tax Capacity
(ONTC) as certified for the District will be based on the market values placed on the property by the assessor
in 2015 for taxes payable 2016.
Pursuant to M. S., Section 469.177, Subds. 1 and 2, the County Auditor shall certify in each year (beginning
in the payment year 2018) the amount by which the original value has increased or decreased as a result of:
Change in tax exempt status of property;
Reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of the district
Change due to adjustments, negotiated or court-ordered abatements;
Change in the use of the property and classification;
Change in state law governing class rates; or
Change in previously issued building permits.
In any year in which the current Net Tax Capacity (NTC) value of the District declines below the ONTC, no
value will be captured and no tax increment will be payable to the HRA or City.
The original local tax rate for the District will be the local t� rate for taxes payable 2016, assuming the
request for certification is made before June 30, 2016. The ONTC and the Original Local Tax Rate for the
District appear in the table below.
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174 Subd. 4 and M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 1, 2, and 4, the estimated
Captured Net Tax Capacity (CTC) of the District, within Redevelopment ProjectNo. 1, upon completion of
the projects within the District, will annually appro�mate tax increment revenues as shown in ihe table
below. The HRA and City request 100 percent of the available increase in tax capacity for repayment of its
obligations and current expenditures, beginning in the tax year payable 2018. The Project Tax Capacity
(PTC) listed is an estimate of values when the projects within the District are completed.

chart is the estunated taY capacity of the District in year 25. The taY capacity of the District in year one is
estimated to be $316,313.
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 4, the HRA shall, after a due and diligent search, accompany its
request for certi�cation to the County Auditor or its notice of the District enlargement pursuant to M.S.,
Section 469.175, Subd. 4, with a listing of all properties within the District or area of enlargement for which
building permits have been issued during the eighteen (18) months immediately preceding approval of the
TIF Plan by the municipality pursuant to M. S., Section 469.175, Subd. 3. The County Auditor shall increase
the original net tax capacity of the District by the net t� capacity of improvements for which a building
permit was issued.
The City has reviewed the area to be included in the District and found no parcels for which building
permits have been issued during the 18 months immediately preceding approval of the TIF Plan by the
City. The City did issue a demolition permit and pass a demolition resolution prior to certification of
the District.
Subsection 2-9. Sources of Revenue/Bonds to be Issued
The costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the annual collection of taY
increments. The HRA or City reserves the right to incur bonds or other indebtedness as a result of the TIF
Plan. As presently proposed, the projects within ihe District will be financed by a pay-as-you-go note and
possible bond issue. Any refunding amounts will be deemed a budgeted cost without a formal TIF Plan
Modification. This provision does not obligate the HRA or City to incur debt. The HRA or City will issue
bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that such action is in the best interest of the City.
The total estimated tax increment revenues for the District are shown in the table below:
SOURCES OF FUNDS

The HRA or City may issue bonds (as defined in the TIF Act) secured in whole or in part with tax increments
from the District in a ma�mum principal amount of $14,934,780. Such bonds may be in the form of pay-as-
you-go notes, revenue bonds or notes, general obligation bonds, or interfund loans. This estimate of total
bonded indebtedness is a cumulative statement of authority under this TIF Plan as of the date of approval.
Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (The Moline) 2-5
Subsection 2-10. Uses of Funds
Currently under consideration for the District is a proposal to facilitate the construction of 241 market rate
apartments and a 189-stall public parking ramp for the future Southwest Light Rail Transit Stop. The HRA
and City have determined that it will be necessary to provide assistance to the project(s) for certain District
costs, as described. The HRA has studied the feasibility of the development or redevelopment of property
in and around the District. To facilitate the establishment and development or redevelopment of the District,
this TIF Plan authorizes the use of tax increment financing to pay for the cost of certain eligible expenses.
The estimate ofpublic costs and uses of funds associated with the District is outlined in the following table.

The total project cost, including �nancing costs (interest) listed in the table above does not exceed the total
projected tax increments for the District as shown in Subsection 2-9.
Estimated costs associated with the District are subject to change among categories without a modification
to this TIF Plan. The cost of all activities to be considered for tax increment financing will not exceed,
without formal modification, the budget above pursuant to the applicable statutory requirements. Pursuant
to M. S., Section 469.1763, Subd. 2, no more than 25 percent of the tax increment paid by property within the
District will be spent on activities related to development or redevelopment outside of the District but within
the boundaries of RedevelopmentProjectNo. 1, (including administrative costs, which are considered to be
spent outside of the District) subject to the limitations as described in this TIF Plan.
Subsection 2-11. Fiscal Disparities Election
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 3, the HRA or City may elect one of two methods to calculate fiscal
disparities. If the calculations pursuant to M. S., Section 469.177, Subd. 3, clause b, (within the District) are
followed, the following method of computation shall apply:
(1) The original net tax capacity shall be determined before the application of the fiscal disparity
provisions of Chapter 276A or 473F. The current net tax capacity shall exclude any fiscal
disparity commercial-industrial net ta� capacity increase between the original year and the
current year multiplied by the fiscal disparity ratio determined pursuant to M.S., Section
276A.06, subdivision 7 or M.S., Section 473F.08, subdivision 6. Where th�e original net tax
capacity is equal to or greater than the current net ta� capacity, there is no captured ta� capacity
and no ta� increment determination. Where the original tax capacity is less than the current ta�
Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (The Moline) 2-6
capacity, the difference between the original net ta� capacity and the current net ta� capacity
is the captured net tax capacity. This amount less any portion thereof which th�e authority has
designated, in its tax increment financing plan, to share with the local ta�ing districts is the
retained captured net ta� capacity of the authority.
(2) The county auditor shall exclude the retained captured net ta� capacity of the authority fi^om the
net tax capacity of th�e local taxing disti^icts in determining local taxing district tax rates. Th�e
local ta� rates so determined are to be extended against the retained captured net ta� capacity
of the authority as well as the net ta� capacity of the local ta�ing disti^icts. The tax generated by
the extension of the less of (A) the local ta�ing district ta� rates or (B) the original local ta� rate
to the retained captured net ta� capacity of the authority is the ta� increment of the authority.
The HRA will choose to calculate fiscal disparities by clause b. It is not anticipated that the District will
contain commerciaUindustrial property. As a result, there should be no impact due to the fiscal
disparities provision on the District.
According to M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 3:
(c) The method of computation of ta� increment applied to a district pursuant to paragraph (a) or
(b) shall remain the same for the duration of the district, except that the governing body may
elect to change its election fi^om the method of computation in paragraph (a) to th�e method in
paragraph (b).
Subsection 2-12. Business Subsidies
Pursuant to M.S., Section 116J.993, Subd. 3, the following forms of financial assistance are not considered
a business subsidy:
(1) A business subsidy of less than $150,000;
(2) Assistance that is generally available to all businesses or to a general class of similar businesses,
such as a line of business, siae, location, or similar general criteria;
(3) Public improvements to buildings or lands owned by the state or local government that serve a
public purpose and do not principally benefit a single business or defined group of businesses at
the time the improvements are made;
(4) Redevelopment property polluted by contaminants as defined in M. S., Section 116J. 552, Subd. 3;
(5) Assistance provided for the sole purpose ofrenovating old or decaying building stock or bringing
it up to code and assistance provided for designated historic preservation districts, provided that
the assistance is equal to or less than 50% of the total cost
(6) Assistance to provide job readiness and training services if the sole purpose of the assistance is to
provide those services;
(7) Assistance for housing;
(8) Assistance for pollution control or abatement, including assistance for a tax increment financing
hazardous substance subdistrict as defined under M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 23;
(9) Assistance for energy conservation;
(10) Tax reductions resulting from conformity with federal tax law;
(11) Workers' compensation and unemployment compensation;
(12) Benefits derived from regulation;
(13) Indirect benefits derived from assistance to educational institutions;
(14) Funds from bonds allocated under chapter 474A, bonds issued to refund outstanding bonds, and
bonds issued for the bene�t of an organization described in section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal
Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (The Moline) 2-7
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended through December 31, 1999;
(15) Assistance for a collaboration between a Minnesota higher education institution and a business;
(16) Assistance for a tax increment financing soils condition district as defined under M.S., Section
469.174, Subd. 19;
(17) Redevelopment when the recipient's investment in the purchase of the site and in site preparation
is 70 percent or more of the assessor's current year's estimated market value;
(18) General changes in tax increment financing law and other general tax law changes of a principally
technical nature;
(19) Federal assistance until the assistance has been repaid to, and reinvested by, the state or local
government agency;
(20) Funds from dock and wharf bonds issued by a seaway port authority;
(21) Business loans and loan guarantees of $150,000 or less;
(22) Federal loan funds provided through the United States Department of Commerce, Economic
Development Administration; and
(23) Property tax abatements granted under M.S., Section 469.1813 to property that is subject to
valuation under Minnesota Rules, chapter 8100.
The HRA will comply with M.S., Sections 116J.993 to 116J.995 to the extent the tax increment assistance
under this TIF Plan does not fall under any of the above exemptions.
Subsection 2-13. County Road Costs
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 1 a, the county board may require the HRA or City to pay for all or
part of the cost of county road improvements if the proposed development to be assisted by tax increment
will, in the judgment of the county, substantially increase the use of county roads requiring construction of
road improvements or other road costs and if the road improvements are not scheduled within the next �ve
years under a capital improvement plan or within five years under another county plan.
If the county elects to use increments to improve county roads, it must notify the HRA or City within forty-
five days of receipt of this TIF Plan. In ihe opinion of the HRA and City and consultants, the proposed
development outlined in this TIF Plan will have little or no impact upon county roads, therefore the TIF Plan
was not forwarded to the county 45 days prior to the public hearing. The HRA and City are aware that the
county could claim that tax increment should be used for counry roads, even after the public hearing.
Subsection 2-14. Estimated Impact on Other Taxing Jurisdictions
The estimated impact on other taxing jurisdictions assumes that the redevelopment contemplated by the TIF
Plan would occur without the creation of the District. However, the HRA or City has determined that such
development or redevelopment would not occur "but for" tax increment financing and that, therefore, the
fiscal impact on other ta�ng jurisdictions is $0. The estimated fiscal impact of the District would be as
follows if the "but for" test was not met

The estimates listed above display the captured tax capacity when all construction is completed. The tax rate
used for calculations is the actual Pay 2015 rate. The total net capacity for the entities listed above are based
on actual Pay 2016 �gures. The District will be certified under the actual Pay 2016 rates, which were
unavailable at the time this TIF Plan was prepared.
Pursuant to M.S. Section 469.175 Subd. 2(b):
(1) Estimate of total tax increment. It is estimated that the total amount of tax increment that will be
generated over the life of ihe District is $23,937,243;
(2) Probable im�act of the District on cit�provided services and ability to issue debt. An impact of the
District on police protection is not expected. The Hopkins police department does track all calls for
service including property-type calls and crimes. With any addition of new residents or businesses,
police calls for service will be increased. New developments add an increase in traffic, and additional
overall demands to the call load. The City does not expect that the proposed development, in and
of itself, will necessitate new capital investment.
The probable impact of the District on fire protection is not expected to be signi�cant. Typically new
buildings generate few calls, if any, and are of superior construction. The existing building, which
will be eliminated by the new development, has public safety concerns.
The impact of the District on public infrastructure is expected to be minimal. The development is
not expected to significantly impact any traffic movements in the area. The current infrastructure for
sanitary sewer, storm sewer and water will be able to handle the additional volume generated from
the proposed development. Based on the developmentplans, there are no additional costs associated
with streetmaintenance, sweeping, plowing, lighting and sidewalks. The developmentin the District
is expected to contribute an estimated $2,485 per unit in sanitary sewer (SAC) connection fees.
Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (The Moline) 2-9
The probable impact of any District general obligation tax increment bonds on the ability to issue
debt for general fund purposes is expected to be minimal.
(3) Estimated amount of tax increment attributable to school district levies. It is estimated that the
amount of tax increments over the life of the District that would be attributable to school district
levies, assuming the school district's share of the total local tax rate for all taxing jurisdictions
remained the same, is $4,830,536;
(4) Estimated amount of tax increment attributable to county levies. It is estimated that the amount of
tax increments over the life of the District that would be attributable to county levies, assuming the
county's share of the total local tax rate for all taYing jurisdictions remained the same, is $7,387,033;
(5) Additional information requested bv the county or school district. The City is not aware of any
standard questions in a county or school district written policy regarding tax increment districts and
impact on county or school district services. The county or school district must request additional
information pursuant to M.S. Section 469.175 Subd. 2(b) within 15 days after receipt of the tax
increment �nancing plan.
No requests for additional information from the county or school district regarding the proposed
development for the District have been received.
Subsection 2-15. Supporting Documentation
Pursuant to M.S. Section 469.175, Subd. 1(a), clause 7 the TIF Plan must contain identification and
description of studies and analyses used to make the determination set forth in M.S. Section 469.175, Subd.
3, clause (b)(2) and the �ndings are required in the resolution approving the District. Following is a list of
reports and studies on file at the City that support the HRA and City's findings:

Action Plan.
Subsection 2-16. Definition of Tax Increment Revenues
Pursuant to M. S., Section 469.174, Subd. 25, tax increment revenues derived from a tax increment financing
district include all of the following potential revenue sources:
Taxes paid by the captured net tax capacity, but excluding any excess taxes, as computed underM. S.,
Section 469.177;
The proceeds from the sale or lease of property, tangible or intangible, to the extent the property was
purchased by ihe authority with tax increments;
Principal and interest received on loans or other advances made by the authority with tax increments;
Interest or other investment earnings on or from tax increments;
Repayments or return of tax increments made to the Authority under agreements for districts for
which the request for certification was made after August 1, 1993; and
The market value homestead credit paid to the Authority under M.S., Section 273.1384.

Subsection 2-17. Modifications to the District
In accordance withM.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 4, any:
Reduction or enlargement of the geographic area of the District, if the reduction does not meet the
requirements ofM.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 4(e);
Increase in amount of bonded indebtedness to be incurred;
A determination to capitalize interest on debt if that determination was not a part of the original TIF
Plan;
Increase in the portion of the captured net tax capacity to be retained by the HRA or City;
Increase in the estimate of the cost of the District, including administrative expenses, thatwill be paid
or financed with tax increment from the District or
Designation of additional property to be acquired by the HRA or City,
shall be approved upon the notice and after the discussion, public hearing and �ndings required for approval
of the original TIF Plan.
Pursuant to M. S. Section 469.175 Subd. 4(�, the geographic area of the District may be reduced, but shall not
be enlarged after five years following the date of certification of the original net tax capacity by the county
auditor. If a redevelopment district is enlarged, the reasons and supporting facts for the determination that
the addition to the district meets the criteria of M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 10, must be documented in
writing and retained. The requirements of this paragraph do not apply if (1) the only modification is
elimination of parcel(s) from the District and (2)(A) the current net tax capacity of the parcel(s) eliminated
from the District equals or exceeds the net tax capacity of those parcel(s) in the District's original net tax
capacity or (B) the HRA agrees that, notwithstanding M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 1, ihe original net tax
capacity will be reduced by no more than the current net tax capacity of the parcel(s) eliminated from the
District.
The HRA or City must notify the County Auditor of any modification to the District. Modifications to the
District in the form of a budget modification or an expansion of the boundaries will be recorded in the TIF
Plan.
Subsection 2-18. Administrative Expenses
In accordance with M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 14, administrative expenses means all expenditures of the
HRA or City, other than:
Amounts paid for the purchase of land;
Amounts paid to contractors or others providing materials and services, including architectural and
engineering services, directly connected with the physical development of the real property in the
District
Relocation benefits paid to or services provided for persons residing or businesses located in the
District
Amounts used to pay principal or interest on, fund a reserve for, or sell at a discount bonds issued
pursuant to M.S., Section 469.178; or
Amounts used to pay other financial obligations to the extent those obligations were used to finance
costs described in clauses (1) to (3).
For districts for which the request for certification were made before August 1, 1979, or after June 30, 1982,
and before August 1, 2001, administrative expenses also include amounts paid for services provided by bond

to be constructed, review the market value previously assigned to the land upon which the improvements are
to be constructed and, so long as the minimum market value contained in the assessment agreement appears,
in the judgment of the assessor, to be a reasonable estimate, the County Assessor shall also certify the
minimum market value agreement.
Subsection 2-24. Administration of the District

Subsection 2-25. Annual Disclosure Requirements
Pursuant to M. S., Section 469.175, Subds. 5, 6, and 6b the HRA or City must undertake financial reporting

469.175 Subd. S and Subd. 6, the Office of the State Auditor will direct the County Auditor to withhold the
distribution of tax increment from the District.
Subsection 2-26. Reasonable Expectations
As required by the TIF 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
reasonably foreseeable future and thatthe increased marketvalue ofthe site thatcould reasonably be expected
Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (The Moline) 2-14
to occur 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 for ihe ma�mum duration of the Districtpermitted by the TIF Plan. In making said determination,
reliance has been placed upon written representation made by the developer to such effects and upon HRA
and City staff awareness ofthe feasibility of developing the project site(s) within the District. A comparative
analysis of estimated market values both with and without establishment of the District and the use of tax
increments has been performed as described above. Such analysis is included with the cashflow in Appendix
D, and indicates that the increase in estimated market value of the proposed development (less the indicated
subtractions) exceeds the estimated market value of the site absent the establishment of the District and the
use of tax increments.
Subsection 2-27. Other Limitations on the Use of Tax Increment
General Limitations. All revenue derived from tax increment shall be used in accordance with the TIF
Plan. The revenues shall be used to finance, or otherwise pay public redevelopment costs of the
Redevelopment Project No. 1 pursuant to M.S., Sections 469.001 to 469.047. Tax increments may not
be used to circumvent existing levy limit law. No tax increment may be used for the acquisition,
construction, renovation, operation, or maintenance of a building to be used primarily and regularly for
conducting the business of a municipality, county, school district, or any other local unit of government
or the state or federal government. This provision does not prohibit the use of revenues derived from tax
increments for the construction or renovation of a parking structure.
2. Poolin� Limitations. At least 75 percent of tax increments from the District must be expended on
activities in the District or to pay bonds, to the extent that the proceeds of the bonds were used to finance
activities within said district or to pay, or secure payment of, debt service on credit enhanced bonds. Not
more than 25 percent of said tax increments may be expended, through a development fund or otherwise,
on activities outside of the District except to pay, or secure payment of, debt service on credit enhanced
bonds. For purposes of applying this restriction, all administrative expenses must be treated as if they
were solely for activities outside of the District.
Five Year Limitation on Commitment of Tax Increments. Tax increments derived from the District shall
be deemed to have satisfied the 75 percent test set forth in paragraph (2) above only if the five year rule
set forth in M.S., Section 469.1763, Subd. 3, has been satisfied; and beginning with the sixth year
following certi�cation of the District, 75 percent of said tax increments that remain after expenditures
permitted under said five year rule must be used only to pay previously committed expenditures or credit
enhanced bonds as more fully set forth in M.S., Section 469.1763, Subd. 5.
4. Redevelo�ment District. At least 90 percent of the revenues derived from tax increment from a
redevelopment district must be used to �nance the cost of correcting conditions that allow designation
ofredevelopment and renewal and renovation districts underM. S., Section 469.176 Subd. 4j. These costs
include, but are not limited to, acquiring properties containing structurally substandard buildings or
improvements orhazardous substances, pollution, or contaminants, acquiring adjacentparcels necessary
to provide a site of sufficient size to permit development, demolition and rehabilitation of structures,
clearing of the land, the removal of haaardous substances or remediation necessary for development of
the land, and installation of utilities, roads, sidewalks, and parking facilities for the site. The allocated
administrative expenses of the HRA or City, including the cost ofpreparation of the development action
response plan, may be included in the qualifying costs.

PART 1 - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
PURPOSE OF EVALUATION
LHB was hired byr the Cityr of Hopkins to inspect and evaluate the pYopeYries within a Tax
IncYement Financing Redevelopment District ("TIF District") pYoposed to be established by the
Cityr. The pYoposed TIF District is bound by 1 s` Street South, 8`h Avenue South, Excelsior
BoulevaYd and 9`h Avenue South (DiagYam 1). The purpose of LHB's woYk is to deteYmine whetheY
the proposed TIF District meets the statutoryr Yequirements foY coveYage, and whether one building
on fouY (1) paYcels and one (1) right of wayr paYcel, located within the pYoposed TIF District, meet
the qualificarions Yequired for a Redevelopment District.

Diagram 1— Proposed TIF District
SCOPE OF WORK
The pYoposed TIF District consists of fouY (4) paYcels and one (1) right of wayr parcel with one (1)
building. The building was inspected on August 17, 2015. A Building Code and Condirion
Deficiency Report foY the building that was inspected is located in Appendix B.
CONCLUSION
AfteY inspecring and evaluaring the pYopeYries within the proposed TIF District and applyring curYent
statutoryr criteria for a Redevelopment District under Minyaesota Statutes, Section 469. 974, Sul�division 90,
it is our pYofessional opinion that the pYoposed TIF District qualifies as a Redevelopment District
because:
• The pYoposed TIF District has a coveYage calcularion of 100 peYcent which is above the 70
percent YequiYement.
• 100 peYcent of the buildings aYe structurally substandaYd which is above the 50 percent
Yequirement.
• The substandaYd buildings are Yeasonablyr distributed.
The Yemainder of this Yeport describes our pYocess and findings in detail.
PART 2- MINNESOTA STATUTE 469.174, SUBDIVISION 10
REQUIREMENTS
The properries were inspected in accordance with the following requirements under Minnesota
Statutes, Section 469. 974, Sul�division 90�c�, which states:
INTERIOR INSPECTION
"The municipalit�r mayr not make such deteYminarion [that the building is structurally substandard]
without an interioY inspection of the propertyr..."
EXTERIOR INSPECTION AND OTHER MEANS
"An interior inspecrion of the propertyT is not required, if the municipality finds that
(1) the municipalityr or authority is unable to gain access to the pYopeYtyr afteY using its best
efforts to obtain peYmission from the paYtyr that owns oY controls the pYopeYtyr; and
(2) the evidence othenvise supports a Yeasonable conclusion that the building is structurally
substandaYd."
DOCUMENTATION
"Written documentation of the findings and reasons why an interioY inspecrion was not conducted
must be made and Yetained under secrion 469.175, subdivision 3(1)."
QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469. 974, Su�division 90 (a� (9) Yequires three tests foY occupied parcels:
A. COVERAGE TEST
..."paYcels consisring of 70 peYcent of the area of the district are occupied by buildings,
streets, utiliries, oY paved oY gYavel paYking lots. .."
The coveYage required byr the paYcel to be considered occupied is deftned under Minnesota
Statutes, Section 469.974, Sul�division 90(e�, which states: "FoY purposes of this subdivision, a
parcel is not occupied byr buildings, streets, uriliries, paved oY gYavel paYking lots, or other
similar structuYes unless 15 peYcent of the aYea of the parcel contains buildings, streets,
uriliries, paved or gYavel paYking lots, or otheY similaY structuYes."
B. CONDITION OF BUILDINGS TEST
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.974, Sul�division 90(a� states, "...and more than 50 percent of the
buildings, not including outbuildings, are structuYally substandaYd to a degYee Yequiring
substantial Yenovation oY cleaYance;"
1. Structurally substandaYd is deftned under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.974, Su�division
90(b�, which states: "FoY purposes of this subdivision, `structurallyr substandaYd' shall
mean containing defects in structuYal elements or a combinarion of deficiencies in
essenrial utiliries and faciliries, light and ventilarion, fire pYotecrion including adequate
egYess, layrout and condirion of interioY paYtirions, oY similaY factoYs, which defects oY
deficiencies aYe of sufficient total significance to jusrifyr substantial renovarion oY
cleaYance."
a. We do not count energy code deficiencies to�uard the thresholds required by
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.974, Sul�division 90(b� defined as "structurallyr
substandaYd", due to conceYns expYessed byr the State of Minnesota Court of Appeals
in the 1�alse�•Auto Sales, Inc. vs. City of l�ichfield case filed NovembeY 13, 2001.
2. Buildings aYe not eligible to be considered structurally substandaYd unless theyr meet
certain additional criteria, as set forth in Subdivision 10(c) which states:
"A building is not structurallyT substandard if it is in compliance with the building code
applicable to new buildings or could be modified to sarisfy the building code at a cost of
less than 15 percent of the cost of construcring a new structure of the same square
footage and type on the site. The municipalityr may find that a building is not disqualified
as structurallyr substandard undeY the pYeceding sentence on the basis of Yeasonablyr
available evidence, such as the size, type, and age of the building, the average cost of
plumbing, electrical, oY structural Yepairs, oY other similaY Yeliable evidence."
"Items of evidence that suppoYt such a conclusion [that the building is not disqualified]
include Yecent fire or police inspections, on-site pYopertyr tax appYaisals oY housing
inspecrions, exterior evidence of deteriorarion, or other similar reliable evidence."
LHB counts energyr code deficiencies towaYd the 15 percent code thYeshold YequiYed byr
Minnesota Statutes, Sectioya 469.974, Sul�division 90(c)) foY the following reasons:
• The Minnesota eneYgy code is one of ten building code aYeas highlighted by the
l��innesota Department of LaboY and Industryr website where minimum
construcrion standaYds are Yequired b�r law.
• ChapteY 13 of the 2015 Minnesota Building Code states, "Buildings shall be designed
and constructed in accordance with the Inte�national Eneagy Conse�vation Code."
FurtheYmoYe, Minnesota Rules, ChapteY 1305.0021 SubpaYt 9 states, "References
to the InteT�cational Ene�gy ConseTvation Code in this code mean the Minnesota EneTgy
Code. . ."
• The Senior Building Code RepYesentarive for the Construcrion Codes and
Licensing Division of the Minnesota Department of Labor and IndustryT
confirmed that the iVlinnesota Energ�T Code is being enforced throughout the
State of Minnesota.
• In a Januaryr 2002 YepoYt to the Minnesota Legislature, the Management Anal�rsis
Division of the Minnesota Department of Adrninistrarion confirmed that the
construcrion cost of new buildings complyring with the Minnesota EneYgy Code
is higheY than buildings built prioY to the enactment of the code.
• PYopeY TIF analysis YequiYes a comparison between the Yeplacement value of a
new building built under current code standards tivith the Yepairs that would be
necessary to bring the exisring building up to current code standards. In order
foY an equal comparison to be made, all applicable code chapteYs should be
applied to both scenarios. Since current construcrion esrimaring softwaYe
automatically applies the construcrion cost of complyring with the Minnesota
EneYgy Code, energyr code deficiencies should also be idenrified in the e�sring
structuYes.
C. DISTRIBUTION OF SUBSTANDARD BUILDINGS
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.974, Subdivision 90, defines a Redevelopment District and
requires one or more of the following conditions, "reasonably distributed throughout the
district."
(1) "Parcels consisting of 70 peYcent of the aYea of the district aYe occupied by buildings,
streets, utiliries, paved oY gYavel paYking lots, oY other similaY structuYes and more than
50 percent of the buildings, not including outbuildings, are structurally substandard to a
degYee Yequiring substanrial renovarion or cleaYance;
(2) the propert�T consists of vacant, unused, underused, inappropriatelyT used, or infrequentlyT
used Yail yraYds, Yail stoYage facilities, oY excessive oY vacated Yailroad rights-of-way;
(3) tank faciliries, oY propertyr whose immediately previous use was foY tank faciliries. .."
OuY inteYpretarion of the distribution YequiYement is that the substandard buildings must be
Yeasonably distributed throughout the district as compared to the locarion of all buildings in
the district. FoY example, if all of the buildings in a district aYe located on one half of the
aYea of the district, with the otheY half occupied by parking lots (meering the YequiYed 70
peYcent coverage foY the district), we would evaluate the distribution of the substandaYd
buildings compared with only the half of the district where the buildings aYe located. If all of
the buildings in a district aYe located evenly thYoughout the enriYe aYea of the district, the
substandaYd buildings must be Yeasonably distributed thYoughout the enrire aYea of the
district. We believe this is consistent with the opinion expressed byr the State of Minnesota
CouYt of Appeals in the 1�alse�•Auto Sales, Inc. vs. City of Bichfield case filed November 13,
2001.
PART 3 - PROCEDURES FOLLOWED
LHB inspected the Johnson Building at 810 1 s` Street South in Hopkins, l��innesota during the dayr
of August 17, 2015.
PART 4 - FINDINGS
A. COVERAGE TEST
1. The total squaYe foot aYea of the paYcel in the pYoposed TIF District was obtained fYom
City YecoYds, GIS mapping and site verificarion.
2. The total square foot aYea of buildings and site impYovements on the parcels in the
proposed TIF District was obtained fYom Cityr records, GIS mapping and site verificarion.
3. The peYcentage of coverage foY each paYcel in the pYoposed TIF District was computed
to determine if the 15 percent minimum Yequirement was met The total squaYe footage
of paYcels meering the 15 peYcent YequiYement was divided into the total squaYe footage of
the entire district to deteYmine if the 70 peYcent YequiYement was met.
FINDING:
The pYoposed TIF District met the coveYage test undeY Minnesota Statutes, Section 469. 974, Subdivision
10(e�, which Yesulted in parcels consisring of 100 peYcent of the aYea of the pYoposed TIF District
being occupied by buildings, streets, utiliries, paved or gravel parking lots, or other similar structures
(DiagYam 2). This exceeds the 70 peYcent aYea coveYage Yequirement foY the pYoposed TIF District
undeY Minnesota Statutes, Section 469. 974, Subdivision �a� �9�.

B. CONDITION OF BUILDING TEST
1. BUILDING INSPECTION
The first step in the evaluarion pYocess is the building inspecrion. After an inirial walk-
thru, the inspectoY makes a judgment whetheY oY not a building "appeaYs" to have enough
defects or deficiencies of sufficient total significance to jusrify substanrial Yenovarion oY
cleaYance. If it does, the inspectoY documents �uith notes and photogYaphs code and non-
code deficiencies in the building.
2. REPLACEMENT COST
The second step in evaluaring a building to determine if it is substandaYd to a degree
reqiliring substanrial renovation or cleaYance is to deteYmine its Yeplacement cost This is
the cost of construcring a new structuYe of the same square footage and tyrpe on site.
Replacement costs were Yesearched using R.S. Means Cost WoYks sc�uaYe foot models for
2015.
A replacement cost was calculated by first establishing building use (office, retail,
Yesidenrial, etc.), building construcrion type (wood, concrete, masonryr, etc.), and building
size to obtain the appYopriate median Yeplacement cost, which factoYs in the costs of
construcrion in Hopkins, Minnesota.
Replacement cost includes laboY, materials, and the contractoY's oveYhead and profit.
Replacement costs do not include aYchitectuYal fees, legal fees oY otheY "soft" costs not
diYectly Yelated to construcrion acriviries. Replacement cost foY each building is tabulated
in Appendix A.
3. CODE DEFICIENCIES
The next step in evaluaring a building is to deteYmine what code deficiencies e�st with
Yespect to such building. Code deficiencies are those condirions foY a building which aYe
not in compliance with current building codes applicable to new buildings in the State of
l��innesota.
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.974, Subdivision 90(c�, specificallyr pYovides that a building
cannot be consideYed structuYalltir substandaYd if its code deficiencies aYe not at least 15
percent of the replacement cost of the building. As a Yesult, it was necessar�r to deteYmine
the extent of code deficiencies for each building in the pYoposed TIF District.
The evaluarion was made by reviewing all available infoYmation with respect to such
buildings contained in Cityr Building Inspecrion Yecords and making interioY and exterior
inspecrions of the buildings. LHB utilizes the curYent Minnesota State Building Code as
the official code for ouY evaluarions. The Minnesota State Building Code is actuallyr a
series of provisional codes written specifically for l��innesota on1yT requirements, adoprion
of several inteYnarional codes, and amendments to the adopted international codes.
AfteY idenrifying the code deficiencies in each building, we used R.S. Means Cost WoYks
2015; Unit and Assemblv Costs to deteYmine the cost of corYecting the idenrified
deficiencies. We were then able to compare the corYection costs with the Yeplacement
cost of each building to deteYmine if the costs for corYecting code deficiencies meet the
Yequired 15 percent threshold.
FINDING:
One (1) building (100 peYcent) in the pYoposed TIF District contained code deficiencies
exceeding the 15 percent threshold required byr Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.974,
Su�division 90(c�. The Building Code, Condition Deficienc�r and Context Analysis Report
for the building in the pYoposed TIF District can be found in Appendix B of this YepoYt.
4. SYSTEM CONDITION DEFICIENCIES
If a building meets the minimum code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section
469.174, Subdivision 10(c�, then in oYder foY such building to be "stYucturallyr substandard"
undeY Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.974, Subdivision 90(1��, the building's defects oY
deficiencies should be of sufficient total significance to jusrifyr "substanrial renovation oY
clearance." Based on this definirion, LHB re-evaluated each of the buildings that met the
code deficiencyr threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.974, Sul�division 90(c�, to
deteYmine if the total deficiencies warYanted "substanrial Yenovarion oY cleaYance" based
on the criteria we out]ined above.
Svstem condirion deficiencies are a measurement of defects oY substanrial deterioYation in
site elements, structuYe, exterioY envelope, mechanical and electrical components, fire
protection and emergencyT syTstems, interior partitions, ceilings, floors and doors.
The evaluarion of system condirion deficiencies was made by Yeviewing all available
infoYmarion contained in City Yecords, and making interior and exterior inspecrions of the
buildings. LHB only idenrified system condirion deficiencies that were visible upon our
inspecrion of the building or contained in Cityr YecoYds. We did not consideY the amount
of "service life" used up foY a paYriculaY component unless it was an obvious part of that
component's deficiencies.
After idenrifying the system condition deficiencies in each building, ��e used our
professional judgment to deteYmine if the list of defects oY deficiencies is of sufficient
total significance to jusrifyr "substanrial renovarion or cleaYance."
FINDING:
In our pYofessional opinion, one building (100 percent) in the pYoposed TIF District aYe
structurally substandaYd to a degYee Yequiring substantial Yenovarion or clearance, because
of defects in structuYal elements oY a combinarion of deficiencies in essenrial utiliries and
facilities, light and ventilarion, fire protecrion including adequate egress, layout and
condirion of interior partitions, or similar factors `vhich defects or deficiencies are of
sufficient total significance to jusrify substanrial renovarion or cleaYance. This exceeds the
50 peYcent Yequirement of Subdivision 10a(1).
C. DISTRIBUTION OF SUBSTANDARD STRUCTURES
Much of this report has focused on the condirion of individual buildings as they relate to
Yequirements idenrified byr Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Sul�division 90. It is also
important to look at the distriburion of substandaYd buildings thYoughout the geogYaphic
aYea of the pYoposed TIF District (Diagram 3).
FINDING:
The paYcels with substandaYd buildings aYe Yeasonablyr distributed compaYed to all paYcels
that contain buildings.

Findings Including But/For Qualifications
The reasons and facts supporting the findings for the adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan (TIF
Plan) for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-5 (District), as required pursuant to Minnesota Statutes,
Section 469.175, Subdivision 3 are as follows:
L Finding that Ta� Increment Financing District No. 1-5 is a redevelopment district as defined in M.S.,
Section 469.174, Subd. 10(a)(1).
The District consists of one parcel, with plans to redevelop the area for housing purposes. At least 70
percent of the area of the parcels in the District are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, paved or
gravel parking lots or other similar structures and more than 50 percent of the buildings in the District,
not including outbuildings, are structurally substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or
clearance.
2. Finding that the proposed development, in the opinion of the City Council, would not reasonably be
expected to occur solely through private investmentwithin the reasonably foreseeable future and that the
increased market value of the site th�at could reasonably be expected to occur without the use of tax
increment financing would be less than the increase in the market value estimated to result fi^om the
proposed development after subti^acting the present value of the projected ta� increments for the
ma�imum duration of the District permitted by the TIF Plan.
The proposed development, in the opinion of the City, would not reasonably be expected to occur solely
through private investmentwithin the reasonablyforeseeable future: This finding is supported by the fact
that the redevelopment proposed in the TIF Plan meets the City's obj ectives for redevelopment. Due to
the high cost ofredevelopment on the parcels currently occupied by substandard buildings, and the need
to consturct a public parking facility for the future SWLRT line, this project is feasible only through
assistance, in part, from tax increment financing. The developer was asked for and provided a letter and
a proforma as justification that the developer would not have gone forward without tax increment
assistance.
The increased market value of the site that could reasonably be expected to occur without the use of ta�
incrementfinancing would be less than the increase in market value estimated to resultfi^om the proposed
developmentafter subtracting the present value ofthe projected ta� increments for the mcr�imum duration
of the District permitted by the TIF Plan: This finding is justified on the grounds that the cost of
redeveloping the site, cost of public parking facility and required public improvements add to the total
redevelopment cost. Historically, site and public improvements costs in this area have made
redevelopmentinfeasible withouttax increment assistance. The City reasonably determines thatno other
redevelopment of similar scope is anticipated on this site without substantially similar assistance being
provided to the development.
Therefore, the City concludes as follows:
a. The City's estimate of the amount by which the market value of the entire District will
increase without the use of tax increment financing is $0.
b. If the proposed development occurs, the total increase in market value will be $33,652,000.
The present value of tax increments from the District for the ma�mum duration of the
district permitted by the TIF Plan is estimated to be $11,315,549.
Appendix G-1
3
Even if some development other than the proposed development were to occur, the Council
finds thatno alternative would occurthatwouldproduce amarketvalue increase greaterthan
$22,336,451 (the amount in clause b less the amount in clause c) without tax increment
assistance.
Finding that the TIF Plan for the District conforms to the general plan for the development or
redevelopment of the municipality as a whole.
The Planning Commission reviewed the TIF Plan and found that the TIF Plan conforms to the
general development plan of the City.
4. FindingthattheTlFPlanfortheDistrictwillaffordmaximumopportunity,consistentwiththesound
needs of the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of Redevelopment Project No.
1 by private enterprise.
The proj ect to be assisted by the District will result in increased employment in the City and the State
of Minnesota, the redevelopment of a substandard property, increased tax base of the State, increase
in availability of safe and decent life-cycle housing and add a high quality development to the City.
