Council Report 95 -233
RESCHEDULE PUBLIC HEARING ON CREATION OF TIF DISTRICT 2 - 8
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve scheduling a public
hearing for Tuesday, February 20, 1996, at approximately 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at
Hopkins City Hall.
The Council previously scheduled this hearing for Tuesday, January 16, but due to timing issues
staff is now recommending it be changed to Tuesday, February 20, 1996. With approval of this
action, staff will publish the required hearing notices in the Sun Sailor.
Overview
A number of months ago, staff was approached by Doug Karon, president of Diamond
Laboratories, regarding the possible redevelopment of the M. B. Hagen Little League field. His
current proposal, due to soils conditions on the site, necessitates the use of tax increment
financing to facilitate such redevelopment.
Previously, the HRA approved Diamond Laboratories' preliminary tax increment application, and
on November 21, 1995, Council approved Diamond Laboratories' Final Tax Increment
Application.
The recommended action to schedule a public hearing in no way obligates the City Council to
certify the tax increment district. The action simply schedules a public hearing for a specific date,
at which time certification of TIF District 2 -8 will be further discussed and public comments
heard.
