Council Report 2008 -069
MODIFICATION TO THE REDEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR REDEVELOPMENT
PROJECT NO. 1.
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: approve Resolution 2008 -042
modifying the Redevelopment Plan for Redevelopment Project No. 1
Overview
In February of this year the City Council authorized an application to Hennepin County
for Transit - oriented Development (TOD) funds to build and upgrade sidewalks on Blake
Road from Excelsior Boulevard to Highway 7. The TOD program requires that the
project site be within a designated Redevelopment Project Area. While some of the
proposed project site was within Redevelopment Project No. 1, other portions were not.
Staff is recommending modifying the Redevelopment Project Area to include all areas of
the Hennepin County TOD project site.
On July 22, 2008, Hennepin County approved a little over half of the requested TOD
funds, or $245,000. This award is contingent on the project site being within a
Redevelopment Project Area. Approval of Resolution 2008 -042 will allow the
modification to be filed with the State and Hennepin County, which will in turn allow the
City of Hopkins to use the TOD funds approved.
The City of Hopkins is also currently analyzing the Blake Road Corridor for a future tax
increment financing (TIF) district. TIF districts must occur within Redevelopment Project
Areas, as well. The modification proposed will allow both the use of the Hennepin
County TOD funds and the future consideration of a TIF district in the project area.

RESOLUTION NO. 2008-042
RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE MODIFICATION TO THE REDEVELOPMENT
PLAN FOR REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT NO. 1.
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Hopkins, Minnesota, as follows:
WHEREAS, the City Council (the "Council ") of the City of Hopkins (the "City ") has
heretofore established Redevelopment Project No. 1 and adopted the Redevelopment Plan therefor. It has
been proposed that the City adopt a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for Redevelopment Project
No. 1, referred to herein as the "Redevelopment Plan Modification ", all pursuant to and in conformity
with applicable law, including Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.001 to 469.047 and Sections 469.174 to
469.1799, inclusive as amended (the "Act "), all as reflected in the Redevelopment Plan Modification, and
presented for the Council's consideration; and
WHEREAS, the Council has investigated the facts related to the Redevelopment Plan
Modification; and
WHEREAS, the City has performed all actions required by law to be performed prior to the
adoption and approval of the proposed Redevelopment Plan Modification, including, but not limited to,
review of and written comment on the Redevelopment Plan Modification by the City Planning
Commission, and the holding of a public hearing upon published notice as required by law; and.
WHEREAS, the City is expanding the boundaries of Redevelopment Project No. 1 to include the
parcels listed in Attachment A.
Section 1. Findings for Project Plan Modification
1.01. The Project Plan Modification includes the expansion of the Project Area
Boundaries. The Boundaries are being expanded to allow for continuing the redevelopment goals of the
City.
1.02. The Redevelopment Plan Modification conforms to the general plan for development
or redevelopment of the City as a whole. The reason for supporting this finding is that the
Redevelopment Plan Modification will generally complement and serve to implement policies adopted in
the City's comprehensive plan.
1.03. The Project Plan Modification will afford maximum 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 reason for supporting this finding is that the development activities are
necessary so that development and redevelopment by private enterprise can occur within Redevelopment
Project No. 1.
1.04. The land in the project area would not be made available for redevelopment without
the financial aid to be sought. The land being added to the Project has been underutilized for years and it
is clear that for redevelopment of that land to occur public financial participation will likely be necessary.
Section 2. Approval and Adoption of the Project Plan Modification; Filing
2.01. The Redevelopment Plan Modification is hereby approved, and shall be placed on file at
the City Clerk. Approval of the Project Plan Modification does not constitute approval of any project or a
development agreement with any developer.
2.02. The staff of the City is authorized to file the Redevelopment Plan Modification with the
Commissioner of Revenue and the Hennepin County Auditor.
2.03. The staff of the City, the City's advisors and legal counsel are authorized and directed to
proceed with the implementation of the Redevelopment Plan Modification and for this purpose to
negotiate, draft, prepare and present to this Council for its consideration all further modifications,
resolutions, documents and contracts necessary for this purpose.
