Frank Beddor and Jerome Carlson Instant Web, Inc. 571 West 78th Street Chanhassen, My 55317 Dear Frank and Jerome: I have been informed that the escrow accounts for Park One and Park Two currently have respective deficits of $13.20 and $313.50. Although it appears that there are no further pending platting con- siderations on each of these parcels, there is the possibility that there are some remaining development contract matters which may need to be reviewed by the City Attorney's office. As such, we are asking that you deliver payment to the City_Treasurer's office in an amount to balance the account deficits plus a $250 reserve for each account so that incidental development contract matters may be taken care of as they arise. In the opinion of staff, once the development contract matters for Park One and Park Two have been completed, the accounts can be closed and any balances remaining will be remitted back to you. If you have any comments or questions on the above, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Bob Waibel City Planner BW:k cc: Scott A.

FZSpt:ctfully° ci 1 1"T-n isi Jerome Carlson Ierome Carlson `s/ Frank Beddor, 'r. Frank Beddor, Jr, MUNICIPAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT Pursuant to changes in state law in the last several sessions of the legislature, a City may establish a municipal development district and finance various public improvements thereof through the use of the increment financing. Tax increment financing is currently proposed to finance improvements to be made in the redevelopment of the central business district by the HRA. While this is one of the ways such financing can be used, its use in municipal development districts is also authorized. Such districts are established and designated by a city council and do not involve the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (although a council could, perhaps, use that vehicle). A council has to find that the creation of such a district and the use of tax increment financing to finance various public improvements within the economic development district is in the public interest because: 1) it will discourage commerce, industry or manufacturing from moving their operations to another state, or 2) it will result in increased employment in the municipality, or 3) it will result in preservation and enhancement of the tax base of this municipality. These districts can be established after a hearing held by the council and after notification of other taxing authorities for their comments. A separate increment district is established and the tax increments are thereafter used to pay any bonds and costs incurred in putting in improvements. A plan for what improvements, estimated costs, and for repayment must be prepared for the hearing and before the district is established. The duration of such districts is not longer than 10 years from the date of approval of the plan, or 8 years of tax increment, whichever is less, in contrast to redevelopment plans such as the HRA central business district redevelopment which can extend for 25 years. Bond counsel agree that a city can establish a district for any development. We of Park One are requesting the establishment,of such an economic development district using the increment financing to reduce the cost of municipal utilities in order to enhance the overall development of Park One and allow us to carry out some energy saving designs and preserve much of the wooded and contour characteristics of the site. -2- JULIUS C. SMITH Attorney at Law 215 YORKTOWN OFFICE COURT 7101 YORK AVENUE SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55435 (612) 831-8530 June 4, 1980 Mr. Don Ashworth City Administrator City of Chanhassen Chanhassen, Minnesota 55317 Re: Park One Dear Don, As a result of our meeting at Instant Web on May 23 attended by yourself, Russ Larson, Walt Hobbs , Jerome Carlson, Frank Beddor and myself, I am preparing a presentation to be made to the City Council at its meeting on June 16 concerning the establishment of an economic development district for Park One for the purpose of employing tax increment financing to reduce utility and other development costs. As stated in my letter of May 21 to Mr. Larson (copy attached) , such districts need not involve the HRA or interfere in any way with its redevelopment project. On June 9 I will submit to you a brief description of the Park One project, a short description of an economic development district and how they function., and some exhibits which we would request you distribute to the Council along with the agenda for the June 16th meeting. Also, a petition to create a municipal economic development district and a tax increment finance district will be presented . At the request of Mr. Beddor and Mr. Carlson, I have requested the con- sideration by the Planning Commission of the Park One replat project (No. 79-15) be postponed until after the Council meeting of June 16. I attach a copy of that letter. We have received the cost estimate report from Scholl and Madson, Inc. relating to utilities and streets for Park One, a copy of which I am en- closing in the unlikely event you had not as yet received a copy. As indicated in my letter to Russ Larson, we are prepared to work up a method to eliminate any risk to the City in the event of increment fi- nancing shortfalls, and I believe, Don, that these kinds of programs can be creatively negotiated to the advantage of all parties concerned so as to lessen any adverse impact which may result from relocation necessitated by other worthwhile city projects. June 4, 1980 Mr. Don Ashworth Re: Park One Page Two If you feel any other information we have relating to Park One would be helpful, if submitted to the Council with the agenda, let me know and I will get it to you immediately. Thanks. Yours very truly, ius G . mith cc: Frank Beddor, Jr. Jerome Carlson Russell Larson JCS/md JULIUS C. SMITH Attorney at Law 215 YORKTOWN OFFICE COURT 7101 YORK AVENUE SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55435 (612) 831-8530 May 21, 1980 Mr. Russell Larson Larson and Mertz 1900 First National Bank Building Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402 Re: Park One Dear Mr. Larson: This letter is in response to your request made during our meeting at your office on May 14 -concerning, primarily, Instant Web, Inc./HRA matters and general questions concerning the development of Park One in Chanhassen. The purchasers of Outlots A and B of Park One, Frank Beddor and Jerome Carlson, have submitted a preliminary sketch plan for the further subdivision of Outlots A and B (being all of the plat of Park One except Lot I, Block 1 , upon which The Press, Inc. is located) and for the extension of municipal utilities and roads into the area. They have requested the City of Chanhassen consider the feasibility of creating a Municipal Economic Development District using tax increment to aid in the installation of necessary streets and utilities. Minnesota Statutes Chapters 472A.01 et seq, and 273.71 et seq. (Minnesota Tax Increment Financing Act) authorized the City to create an economic development district and to use tax increment financing therefrom to retire bonds issued by the City to pay for construction of improvements within the district. The City Council would be required to make findings that the project is in the public interest because 1) it would discourage industry moving to another state, or, 2) it would result in increased employment in the city, or, 3) it would result in preservation or enhancement of the tax base of the city. The installation of utilities and roads would cost substantially more than the incremental tax derived from the increase in the value of land only, but it would seem appropriate guarantees could be arranged to cover any possible shortfall should the district not May 'L.1 , 1980 Mr. Russell Larson Be: Park One Page Two develope fast enough to insure adequate incremental taxes during the possible eight year life of the district. Such a guarantee could take many forms or a combination of several. The necessary plan preparation, notices, meetings and hearing required by statute would delay the project somewhat, but such delay would not cause undue forseeable problems now that it is planned to put Instant Web into Park Two (the Schmieg property) . The time period involving action by the City is relatively short once the plans (including the financing plan) are completed. The physical plans and feasibility studies would have to be done in any case. It appears , Russ , our general agreement last Wednesday to the effect that this matter of economic development districts does not represent a legal problem, but more of a political one - that is, political in the sense that the City Council must determine whether it wishes to proceed in this matter - is correct. While the pre -amble contained in Section 972A.01 referring to areas "already built up" has been raised as an indirect limitation of Sec- tion 273.73 Subd. 12, the general view of bond attorneys, parti- cularly in view of the court opinions involving City Council deter- minations , is that tax increment financing of an economic develop- ment project could legally be available to a project such as Park One. Because the HRA need not be used, no findings of blight and deterioration need be made, and the creation of an economic development district need in no way interfere with the financing and management of the present HRA redevelopment district. If the City Council would like to see a more detailed procedural schedule - which could be put together quite easily - I would be happy to submit one for your perusal. After you have had a chance to review this, give_jme a cbll. Thanks. Yo very tru15 ius C .

Ashworth Chanhassen City Manager Box 147 Chanhassen. MN 55317 Dear Don, July 31, 1980 t Re: Proposed Tax Increment District for Park One TELEPHONE (612) 335-95E5 You have asked us to comment on the petition of Messrs. Carlson and Beddor for the designation of Park One as a Municipal Develop- ment District under Chapter 472A of Minnesota Statutes. This petition has been made in conjunction with a similar petition for the installation of municipal services as a public improvement project. Under the Carlson/Beddor proposal, the Park One public improvements would be installed by the City, and the costs of such installation would be recovered in the form of -tax increments rattier than in the form of special assessments. This of course presumes that private construction would subsequently occur within Park One so as to create these increments. The petitoners' attorney has indicated that the petitioners would he willing to negotiate some sort of guarantee contract, which wound cover any possible shortfalls should the district not develope fast enough. Proposal Contrasted With HRA Downtown Project A Chapter 472A district would be a tax increment district similar to the Chanhassen HRA's downtown project. There would be several differences however: 1. The Citv Council, rather than the HRA, would be responsible for the operation of the district. 2. The district is not required to be "Blighted". 3. The district must promote the improvement of the tax base in areas "alreadv built up 4. The -district would be subject to all of the provisions of the 1979 legislation which establishes many new limitations on the use of tax increment financing. Donald W. Ashworth July 31, 19sb Page Two Items 3 and 4 above require further comment. Chapter 472A was first enacted in 1974 for the purpose of enabling the City of Minneapolis to utilize tax increment financing to expand the skyway system and to construct City -owned parking facilities. The now act permits any municipality (defined as "any city"), to construct skyways, parking ramps, "open -space relief", and "developments aimed at improving the physical facilities, quality of life and quality of transportation", in areas of a municipality which are "already built-up".- The quoted language has been cited by cities other than Minneapolis for the constru- ction of all manner of public improvements as Chapter 472A tax increment projects. Is the Subject Property "Already Built -Up"? The threshold legal question is:"Does Park One consti.tue an area "already built-up?" The statute and the reported cases thereunder offer no guidance as to the meaning of this term. If this term was intended to signify only intensively developed areas such as the Minneapolis loop, then the Park One site would not seem to quality as a Chapter 472A project. It can be argued, however, that the following factors quality Park One as a "built-up area": 1. availability of full municipal services at the property line, 2. frontage on a trunk highway, 3. frontage on a commercial -type service road, 4. frontage on a railroad right-of-way, 5. partial occupation of the site by The Press and Reply Systems, and 6. the ongoing development of the neighboring Lyman Lumber site. The construction of the Park One public improvements as a Chapter 4.72A project would require the issuance of municipal bonds. Such bonds would have to be supported by a favorable opinion letter of Chanhassen's bond counsel, who would.not only review the City's procedural transcript but also make an independent judgment as to the validity of any City Council finding that Park One is an area "already built-up". Mr. Kennedy, the City's bond counsel, is temporarily absent from the area and,thus, unavailable.for comment on this specific petition. 'One -of the senior partners in Mr. Kennedy's firm, while_expressing skepticism regarding the project, requested that the matter be submitted to Mr. Kennedy upon his return, as he is the person most familiar with the current interpretation prevelant among bond counsel as a group. y Tel i i7 A- Donald W. Ashworth July 31, 1980 Page Three 2 1979 Reform Legislation In 1979 the State Legislature enacted a comprehehs-ive -taxx increment statute (Chapter 273) which was intended to override certain provi- sions of all of the various tax increment laws which have been enacted over the years, including the tax increment law under which HRA's function and Chapter 472A, which is the subject of the Carlson/Beddor petition. Tax increment districts formed prior. to August of 1979,. such as the Chanhassen HRA downtown project, are exempt from almost all of the provisions of Chapter 273. A Park One tax increment district would, however, be subject to all of the provisions of Chapter 273.. The relevant provisions. of Chapter 273 deal with the following topics:. 1. fiscal disparities, 2.. formalized 'procedures for project initiation, 3. preparation of a financing plan, 4. intergovernmental consultation, 5. durational limitations, 6. annual reporting requirements, and 7. administrative expense limitations. Fiscal Disparities The proposed Park One tax increment district would be subject to the provisions of the fiscal disparities law. Any increases in assessed valuation occurring in Park One would be subject to a 40% contribution rate into the metropolitan pool. Procedurefor District Formation The procedure for establishment of a Chapter 472A district is summarized as follows: 1. preparation of tax increment financing plan, 2. submission of plan to the planning commission, 3. submission of plan to county -board and school board, 4. public hearing, 5. adoption of city council resolution approving plan, 6. filing of plan with state, and 7. certification of the district to the county_. The Plan Document The Tax Increment Financing Plan is a formal document prepared either by a fiscal consultant or in-house by City employees. The . y k Donald W. Ashworth July 31, 1980 Page Four plan must contain: 1. estimated construction costs, 2. estimated administration costs, 3. the amount of bonded debt to be incurred, 4. a description of the revenue sources to be used to pay project costs, 5. the current assessed value of the district, 6, the estimated assessed value of the district upon project completion, 7. estimated duration of the district, and 8. estimated tax.impact on other affected taxing jurisdictions (i.e., Hennepin County and Eden Prairie Schools and the watershed district). (See MSA 273.74, Subd.l) Upon completion of the plan document, it is transmitted to the planning commission for its comment and recommendation (See MSA 472A.03). The planning commission recommendation should be in writing and should .be received by the City Council prior to the public hearing stage described below. .Simultaneous with submission to the planning commission, the plan must be submitted to the County Board and the School Board for their comment. - A public hearing on the plan must be held by the City Council. The School Board and the County Board must be given time at that hearing to present their views on the plan. Notice of the public hearing must be given by publication (See MSA 273.74,Subd.3 and MSA 472A.03). Upon conclusion of the public hearing, a formal resolution must be adopted by the City Council containing findings as follows: 1. that the district will discourage commerce from moving from Minnesota, 2. that the district will increase employment -in Chanhassen, 3. that the district will enhance Chanhassen`.s tax base, 4. that the development would not occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future,.. 5. that the plan conforms to the general plan for the development of Chanhassen as a whole, 6. that :the plan affords maximum opportunity for development of the district by private enterprise. (See MSA 273.73 Subd. 12 and 273.74..Subd.3). • .I Donald W. Ashworth July 31, 1980 Page Five The fourth finding represents the very essence of tax increment financing. Tax increment financing is said to have no significant. impact on other taxing jurisdictions because it simply uses the tax dollars it generates to pay the cost of generating them. However, if private development would occur without public intervention, the whole theory falls and other taxing jurisdictions are in fact being deprived of tax dollars they otherwise would receive. Durational Limitations Chapter 273 imposes several limitations on the maximum duration or life of a tax increment district: a) the district collapses if no bonds are issued or if no improvements are constructed within three years of the creation of this district..(See MSA 273.75 Subd. 1). b) the district collapses after eight years from the date of receipt of the. first tax increment, c) the district collapses 10 years after city council approval of the tax increment financing plan (See MSA 273.75 Subd.1) d) individual parcels fall out of the district if at the end of five years, no site preparation has taken place on that parcel. (Street construction adjacent to a. parcel qualifies as site preparation, thus,. care .would have ..to be taken that ..all lots to be created by Carlson/Beddor front on the City's street construction activities). (See MSA 273.75 Subd. 6) . ..

A summary version of this report must be published annually. (See MSA 273.74 Subd. 5). Administrative Expenses Chapter 273 places a 5% ceiling on in-house administrative costs charged to the district. The costs of administrative duties delegated to outside consultants are not subject to.this limitation. (See MSA 273.75 Subd.3). Conclusion If the Council approves the.Carlson/Beddor petition in concept, it is recommended that, estimates be obtained for the cost of preparation of a tax increment financing plan and that negotiations be commenced with the petitioners.tor a private guarantee of City costs incurred in preparation of that plan. Bond Counsel should also be asked to review the petition fora determination of the "already built-up" question. Very truly yours, CRAIG M.

No. 79-15 Honorable Mayor and Council Members: ARCHITECTS / PLANNERS / INTERIOR DESIC�V Park One consists of approximately forty acres of industrial zoned land on the easternmost edge of Chanhassen_ along Highway 5. With the exception of The Press, Inc., the land is undeveloped. There is public road and utilities just to the North of The Press, and this frontage road dedication continues to the Eden Prairie line. This frontage road divides Park One approximately in half. The South half is relatively flat, agricultural land and is fully visable from Highway 5. This area is readily developable. The North half is heavily wooded and presents considerable topographic relief (up to 60 feet). It is also divided by a natural hollow which provides drainage for a sizeable area. To develop a typical industrial park on this site would be difficult and ecologically undesirable. Vast quantities of earth would have to be moved to create a relatively flat site. Almost all trees would be removed. The drainage pattern would rely strictly on storm sewers, creating potential hazards at discharge locations. Given these constraints, it is proposed that the North half of Park One be an earthsheltered, environmentally compatible development. The key to this solution is constructing a road which works with, and not against the topography. This has been done, and the road as shown on the drawings requires only minor cutting to present a gently rolling profile. This enables us to maintain the natural drainage pattern and create a "duck pond" for excess runoff. It also maintains the natural, wooded character of the site and removes only those trees absolutely necessary to construction. The buildings will be set into the hillsides with a front "walkout" profile, creating a minimum building mass. With such earthsheltering, these buildings will also be highly energy efficient. 555 SHELARD TOWER 600 SOUTH COUNTY ROAD 18 MNNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55426 (612)546-5381 n ♦ a The Mayor and City Council City of Chanhassen Comm.

An Equal Opportunity Employer 7610 LAREDO DRIVEoP.O BOX 1476CHANHASSEN, MINNESCA 55317 (612) 474-8885 April 2, 1980 Instant Web, Inc. Attn: Mr. Jerry Carlson 581 W. 78th Street Chanhassen, MN 55317 Dear Jerry: As I noted during our meeting of this past week, I am unable to prove or disprove the "1979 Estimated Annual Taxes - Comparative. Study of Southwest Suburban Communities" report prepared by Arnie Hed for Instant Web. The calculations shown by Mr. Hed are accurate, i.e. formulas used for determining assessed value, application of mill rates, and updating this information to assure that changes in potentia 1 mill rates were included. One factor, which the report did not take into consideration, is differences between the'".- ssessorI s market value and 'hctual market value." -Differences in these two figures can and will alwayO exist primarily due to the fact that the assessor's values a 3re approximately 2 years old at the time taxes are paid and because of time delays inaccumulating information in regards to sales. P, a result, assessors reduce the market.value to approximate the difference in percentage between the assessor's value versus current constz'uction costs. This percent differential assures that new propErties are not paying a disproportionately higher tax, simply because heir property is coming on new, in comparison to other properties Whose values are two years old. By reducing the current value by -the approximate differential occurring on all properties within -the taxing district, all properties are then being treated similar and all can be proportionately increased in future years. Of importance in this light, however, is the fact that the differential o-C assessment rates is not uniform in all taxing districts. For example, some cities or counties may keep the differential between the 'hs ,- ,f--ssor' s market value"and. "true market" value at a higher percentage t1'ien another area. As long as all property owners within that to ding district are being treated similarly, this makes little or in o difference. However, it does make a difference if a property tax analysis is made between taxing authorities without taking factor Mr. Jerry Carlson _� -2- t- April 2, 1980 info consideration. Specifically, if the Carver County Assessor's office is valuing property at approximately 82% of market value, all properties within the taxing district will be proportionately lower than another community having exactly the same total market values but using a 90% ratio. In this example, if the dollars collected by all governmental units were exactly the same, the mill rate of Carver County would be higher than the mill rate of the community having the same market value. In this hypothetical example, although the mill rates between the two communities would be significantly different, the actual taxes paid by a home or business would be exactly the same. As I noted, the only accurate way to determine differences between assessors offices in comparison to market values is to carry out a thorough research matching all sales within a community versus the assessor's market value for those same parcels. Assuming that approximately 100 sale prices were compared to "assessor's value", a fairly reliable ratio can be developed to make accurate comparative tax analysis. These types of ratios are prepared by the State and are available for public inspection. Additionally, the Citizens League (a non-profit, non -partisan public affairs and research group) uses these statistics in conjunction with applicable state laws and mill rates to make comprative tax analysis. I am attaching a copy of the 1980 estimated tax comparison prepared by the Citizens League. It. is important to note that, based on mill rates only, that Chanhassen, as shown in Mr. Hed's report, Chanhassen.is higher than other communities in regards to mill rates. However, when the differences in sales ratios are taken into account, Chanhassen taxes are reasonably comparable with other cities and are less than a majority shown in the example by Mr. Hed. Again, it is the sales ratio (difference between what different assessors establish for a assessor's market value versus the market value as established by the actual sale of the property) which significantly changes the tax picture. For example, if the sales ratio as prepared by the State, is used to determine potential taxes for Instant Web, the following differences would occur: Estimated Net Instant Web Taxes Tax - Instant Based on Corporativ Gross Tax Web (Mr. Hed's Analysis State of.

I cannot assure you that the taxes as generated through the Citizens League report would be correct. The problem with the Citizens League report is that, although the statistical base is sufficient to reflect differences in '-assessor's market value" versus 'actual market value" for residential properties, there is not a sufficient statistical base for commercial properties. Logically, these two would be the same, but not necessarily.

A 1980 tax of about S615, or just. slightly over 1 percent of market value, is the median property tax on homesteads with selling prices of S60,000 among the 92 largest cities in the metropolitan area, according to the annual Citizens League survey of homestead property taxes. The median tax on a representative homestead as a percent of market value is at its lowest level since the CL began its surveys in the late 1960s. In the first . years, the CL used a homestead-.K7th a selling price of S18,000 as "representa- tive." The figure has been raised periodi- calty since then. - In last year's survey the median tax (on a S50,000 house) was about 1.6 percent of market. A graph in this issue. shows the trend since 1968, The median is a point where the taxes on a repre- sentative homestead in one half the cities are higher and where one half are lower. The League's estimates reveal reduc- tions in property taxes from last- year ranging from 14 to 39 percent on these representative homesteads. These reduc-. tions represent a shift in burden —to other taxes and to other taxpayers —not a reduction in government spending. . Minneapolis, which ranked highest in estimated taxes in the last five Citizens League surveys, dropped to 13th this year. Cities with the highest estimated taxes on a S60,000 homestead (school district number is in parentheses): Jordan (717) S849 Golden Valley (275) 826 Belle Plaire (716) 778 Blaine (16) 777 Prior Lake (719) . 769 St. Louis Park (283) 769 Chaska (112) 746 Mound (277) 737 Shakopee (720) 736 Richfield (280) 720 (Taxes continued on page 3) February 5; 1980 What NYM Happen to- -1931 Property Taxes?. - Several factors will influence. what happens to property taxes in 1981. Some persons far large increases in homestead taxes are likely - This much is certain: the remaining gap between limited market value and -estimated market value will be closed, meaning an increase in homestead value, even without further adjustments for inflation_ . Some changes will offset these in- creases. The Legislature is making. a slightly larger percentage of homestead value exempt from taxation, and the homestead credit is being increased another S50. If after these adjustments, the assessed value of hornesteads goes up proportion- ately more than other properties, then a tax shift to homesteads would occur. Among the unknown factors is whether government spending, in total, -will rise faster than assessed valuation, in - total. If it does, and if state aids don't offset the difference, then the mill rate will increase, along.writh taxes. Another unknown is what will happen to the selling price -of housing and the extent these changes are reflected in assessors' estimated market values. - If property taxes rise in 1981 over I980, part of the reason may lie in the fact that the bulk of the Legislature's" _ reaction to the need to eliminate limited - market value was "heavied-up in the `. -first year of the two-year. phase -out, Ieaving little more for 1981. For example;°;. while the homestead credit is being' increased by a total of S275 over 'a two-year period, most of the increase,-_- S225, is being given in the first year.: For illustrative purposes only, here is what might happen to a S60,000 home- stead in Mounds View, where taxes are:_.. near the median. Assuming no chance in estimated market value due to inflation,. - the estimated market value would be - $57,420, up from S47,698 in 1980. If the' mill rate in 1981 were identical to 1980," taxes would be 5719 next year, up from S6I 7 this year, but still below $8401ast `,'= year.` PAGE 2 1Estimated Taxes ©n $50,COO Homestead Communities.Cve,r ZEW Population an Metro Area (Change from 1979 includes 16.6% inflation factor in value of house) �. 1980 Rank S Decrease % Decrease Community and Estimated 1 (high) to From 1979 From 1979 N bar Tax 90 (low) To 1980 To 1980 SCh001 DISLHCL um Afton (834) -$406 92 $ 65 13.8 0 Andover (11) 497 83 202 23.9 Anoka (11) 594 48 243 29.0 Apple Valley (196) .589 50 292 33.1 Arden Hills (621) - 503 SQ 233 31.7 Bayport (834) . .. . 502 82 127 20.2 Belle Plaine (716) 778 3 220 22.0 Blaine 06) - 777 4 247 24.1 Bloomington (271) 623 37 294 32-1 Brooklyn Center (286) __ 629 32 307 32.6 Brooklyn Park (279) '_. 617 41 331 .. 34.9 - Burnsville (191). ^ -522 : 70 278 34.8 Champlin (11) --" 642 28 248 27.9 Chanhassen 012) 637 30 257 28.7 Chaska (112). .746 -- 7 227 23.3 Circle Pines (12) - - ,_649 - _ _'. 26 286 30.6 Columbia Heights (13) 568 57 204 26.4 Columbus Twp.

The Legislature took several steps in 1979 to reduce homestead property taxes, including more state aid to local governments; an increase in the portion of homestead value which is exempt from the property tax; and a big 'increase in direct state aid to homeowners via an enlarged homestead credit, from a maxi- mum of S325 to a maximum of S550. Moreover, additional benefits -not incorporated in the League's tax estimates -will be provided to most homeowners through property tax re- funds related to income that will be mailed next October. Such a refund is popularly known as the circuit breaker - For households where incorne is under S21,000, a total of S1,000 of circuit - breaker and homestead benefits are possible. If household income is between S21,000 and S36,000, the circuit breaker refund gradually disappears. All home- owners, irrespective of income, are eligible to receive up to a maximum S550 homestead credit. Benefits for elderly households. are higher. = A homeowner with S20,000 house hold incorne paying S600 in net property taxes (after deducting the homestead credit) on a S60,000 house will receive another S194 refund in October, which would make the actual property tax bur-'' den about S406, or less than .7 percent of the selling price of a S60,000 house. A court -ordered end to a limitation on the market value of homesteads for tax _ purposes prompted much of the Legi lature's efforts to shift the tax burden this year. The Minnesota Tax Court ruled unconstitutional a state law which had limited the annual increases in value of homesteads for tax purposes, irrespec- tive of what was happening to. selling prices - (Taxes continued on page 4) 1.77... ?

Because of a major reassess- ment in the previous year -the impact of %-jhich is being felt for the first time in 1980 taxes -residential values in Shakopee for 1980 were not further adjusted for inflation during the time since the reassessment took place, according to the Shakopee assessor. Our estimate of limited market value for Shakopee, therefore, takes into consideration the impact of the reassessment without an additional inflation adjustment. Such an inflation adjustment, however, was made for the other cities in the survey. If we had not made an exception in Shakopee's case.our estimates would have revealed taxes in Shakopee increasing, which would have been inaccurate, according to the Shakopee assessor_ - : :: - -- , PAGE 4 (Taxes continued from page 3) The Leg4slature is phasing out the limited market value concept over two years. Approximately one-lialf of the dif- ference between limited market value and estimated market value was removed for 1980 taxes. The remaining one-half is to be removed for 1981 taxes. Mean- while, inflation is causing estimated market value to rise, too. We had to take special steps in esti- mating 1980 taxes to reflect the partial phase -out of limited market value plus the overall inflationary impact on the price of homes. The final column on our chart illustrates the limited market value which we used for each city in the survey, which is arrived at through the use of special research data available from the Minnesota Department of Revenue. It is intended to be a representative indicator of the limited market value for 1980 taxes for a house with a selling price of $60,000. What this means, -of course, is that our estimates apply . to. 'a representative homestead which is assumed to be actually worth S60,000 on the open market, not the value which has been assigned to the property for tax purposes. Someone whose limited market value as determined by the assessor is S60,000 will find his actual tax hk;her than the figure in our tax table. Of course, such a house more than likely has a selling price considerably in. excess of S60,000. " For purposes of estimating the change in net property taxes in 1980 from 1979, we assumed an increase in selling price of 16.6 percent between the two assessment years on which taxes in 1980 and 1979 are based. The Department of Revenue arrived at the 16.6 percent figure through a comprehensive comparison of residen-. tial sales from one -'year -to the next._ Thus, we have rise a. house with, a selling price of S51,458 for 1979 taxes . And S60,000 for 1980. A 16.6 percent increase in a S51,458 house brings it to S60,000. 71 Steps We FoDowed To Find 1980 Faxes Here are the steps we followed in preparing our 1980 tax estimates (using Mounds View as an example). 1. Estimate 1979 limited market value. We applied the 1978 residential aggregate ratio for limited market value (73.8 percent for Mounds View) to a market . value of S51,548. The result was S37,976 (for Mounds View). 2. Estimate 1980 estimated market. value. We applied the 1978 residential aggregate ratio for estimated market value (95.7 percent for Mounds View) to a, market value of S60,000. The result was - S57,420 (for Mounds View). 3. Arrive at 1980 limited market value. According to law, this shall be deter- mined by adding one-half the difference between 1979 limited market value and 1980 estimated market value, or 10 percent of 1979 limited market value, whichever is Qreater. For Mounds View, therefore, the 1980 limited market value became S47,698. 4. Calculate assessed value. For 1980 taxes, the law provides that assessed value shall be 18 percent of the first S21,000 of limited market value and 30 percent of the balance. For the 'Mounds View example, S47,698 in limited market value becomes S11,789 in assessed value. S. Apply mill rate to assessed value. The mill rate is nothing more than a fancy way of expressing a percentage. A mill rate of 100 mills, for example, is 10 percent: The result is the gross homestead tax: Applying the '`sounds View -mill rate of 99.002 mills to an assessed value of S1I,789 produces a gross homestead tax of SI-,167. :. 6. Apply the homestead credit. The creditAs one -halt the gross tax, to a maximum of S550. For the Mounds View exam ple,subtract S550 from S1,167 fog a net tax of S617.

Jerome Carlson, President Instant Web, Inc. 571 W. 78th Street Chanhassen, MN 55317 Re: "Park One" Developer's Escrow Account Refund Dear Jerome: As you requested, I am refunding the full current balance of $4,099.37 from the "Park One" escrow account with this mailing. Since the initial refund of $4,399.69 was sent to you on .February 24, 1982, the City received and subsequently confirmed an additional billing from Schoell and Madson, Inc. A copy of this billing and supporting documentation is enclosed for your records. Of the total invoice amount, $900.63 is attributed to work performed relative to Park One development plan review. The balance ($381) relates to the preparation of the Engineering Feasibility Study which is being charged against the Tax Increment District (#2). A revised breakdown of Park One Escrow Account activity since the account was established is also enclosed for your reference. Since Park One lies entirely within Tax Increment District No. 2, and since you've indicated that no development is planned for this property during the next year, you should be aware of the legal ramifications if no development occurs within the next three -five. year period. The Tax Increment Act under which this district was established provides that the entire Tax Increment District collapses if no bonds are issued or if no public improvements are constructed within three (3) years of the creation of the district. The district was established on December 15, 1980, so the sale of bonds or construction of public improvements must be accomplished by December 15, 1983. y1 Mr. E . Jerome Carl ...n Page 2 1't The Act also provides that individual parcels fall out of the tax increment district if no site preparation occurs on that parcel within five (5) years from the district's establishment. With the above limitations in mind, I encourage you to strongly consider development of Park One lands during 1983 and to begin planning efforts towards that end within the next six months. If I can be of any assistance or if you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Scott A. Martin Community Development Director SAM:nh Enc. cc: Don Ashworth, City Manager Kay Klingelhutz, City Treasurer 19 CITY OF 31-. CHANHASSEN 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O. BOX 147 • CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 937-1900 MEMORANDUM TO: Don Ashworth, City Manager FROM: Scott A. Martin, Community Development Director lk� DATE: January 8, 1982 RE: Review of Cost Allocations for City Consultant Work performed relative to the "Park One Subdivision" proposal and the establishment of Tax Increment District #2 (Economic Development District). As you directed, I have reviewed the city files pertaining to Park One Subdivision and Tax Increment District #2 in order to determine what agreement, if any, was made between the City and Instant Web, Inc. concerning responsibility for costs incurred by the City in the establishment of Tax Increment District #2. As you recall, Jerome Carlson contacted you last month about costs charged against the "park One" escrow account which he felt were not the responsibility of Instant Web, Inc. According to my findings, a report prepared by you (dated August 4, 1980) which was directed to the City Council recommended the establi.shment of a developer's escrow account to pay for the cost of consultant studies required to determine the feasibility of establishing a tax increment district for Park One and adjacent properties. However, this recommendation stated that the developer would be obligated to pay such costs only if the district was not ultimately established. If the tax increment district was established by the City Council (as occurred-_ on December 15, 1980) you recommended that the cost of all related studies be charged against the newly established district. You further recommended that escrow monies be refunded to the developer if such occurred. According to the City Council minutes of August 4, 1980, your recommendation was approved by the Council and.necessary feasibility studies were ordered. On November 21, 1980, Instant Web, Inc. deposited $10,800 in an escrow account with the City. This action followed your request of November 20, 1980 that Instant Web remit $4,800 to cover one-half the cost of the BRW feasibility study (estimated to cost a total t Memorandum - Januc 8, 1982 Page 2 of $9,600). Apparently, the additional $6,000 deposited on November 21, 1980 was intended to cover one-half of the cost for an engineering feasibility study to be prepared by Schoell & Madson. Our records are rather vague in this area however. The actual cost of the Schoell & Madson study was $11,742.50. From reviewing our records, I've concluded that the City and Instant Web entered into a "Gentleman's Agreement" concerning each party's financial obligations in the event a new Tax Increment District was or was not established. It seems to me that the City should accept the responsibility for full payment of the costs of these studies, and that an adjustment should be made in the Park One escrow account as shown in the attached proposed "Revised Breakdowns of Park.One and Tax Increment District No. 2 Costs". If you approve the Park One escrow account balance adjustment as proposed, I would recommend retaining a minimum balance of $5,000 in the escrow account in order to cover future processing costs for City review of the Park One Subdivision plat, which has not yet received preliminary or final approvals. The remaining $4,057.75 should be refunded to Instant Web immediately upon �`•J receipt of your written approval. I will work with Kay to \ � ,,1, correct both accounts according to your direction. �C-C ATTACHMENTS 1. Summary "History of Park One Subdivision/Economic Development District #1" 2.

Approve Concept Development Plan ..°I b. Consider Economic Development District -Report - City Attorney c. Public Improvement Petition, Consider Authorizing Feasibility Study Td Approximately one month ago, the City Council reviewed the concept plan for Park One as proposed by Frank Beddor and Jerry Carlson. This consideration followed Planning Commission action to approve the concept plan. However, this was not presented to the City Council for concept plan approval, but rather for informational purposes to determine whether to proceed with the secondary question of whether this property could or should be located within an economic development district. Action on potentially establishing an economic development district was tabled to allow the City Attorney's office to prepare a report as to legal proceedings and Iwo. review �Aie information submitted by Jules_Smith, representing Mr. YBeddor d Mr. Carlson. E3a. Approve Concept Development Plan: As noted.above, Council action on the concept plan did not previously occur. Approval is recommended with the developer instructed to follow proceedings outlined for preliminary development plans -such being submitted to the Planning Commission. Consider Economic Development District Report - City Attorney: Attached please find a report from the City Attorney's office outlining legal issues posed in potentially considering establishment.of an economic development district. After reviewing the attorney's report, overall concept plan, and previous information submitted by,Mr. Beddor and Mr. Carlson, the City Council should determine whether the information submitted is sufficient to proceed with requirements outlined for the establishment of an economic development district, i.e. Does the City Council believe 6UE K 'Mayor and Council -2- August 4, 1980 that the information submitted to date justifies a positive Al finding in regards to the six findings that must be made at a future public hearing? Should the Council believe that the six f indings.can be made and that preliminary 13 information warrants further investigation of establishing a economic development district, the City Council should: q 1. Authorize preparation of a contract by Schoell and Madson, to carry out a feasibility study for public improvements within the Park One area; and 2. Authorize preparation of a contract, with BRW, to prepareQtax increment financing plan incorporating into such public improvement costs as prepared by Schoell and Madson and as outlined -in the City Attorneys report under the "Plan Document". Should the City Council approve the concept of further proceeding with the establishment of an economic development district, the Council,,.,.should.-. determine_ that costs of both the feasibility_ -study as well as Plan Do_current shall be costs borne by the developer until sur_h timeNas a determination is made as to whether or not the district/public improvements will be completed as6publzc improvement;;project"s ore:not __ _.._ er If_such_we determined to be an economic development district, costs of both �the _P.lan Documerif_.as �ue11as_pubhic�improvement feasibi_l,ity studies would_become a cost of "the cm econoi development district and monies escrowed by the developer for both the_feasibility _study-and-planbeemitted— to. the -developer., Should the Council determine not to establish an economic development district, but to proceed with the installation of improvements as a public improvement project, the costs of the feasibility study would become a part of assessible costs. This option would mean that the developer would then lose escrowed monies placed for the economic development district plan, but would be remitted monies placed for the feasibility study. The final option would be that the Council would determine not to proceed r with either the economic development district or public improvements, in which case the developer would lose monies deposited for both the development plan as well as the feasibility study. c. Public Improvement Petition, Consider Authorizing Feasibility Study: Methods of paying the costs associated with the feasibility study were outlined above. However, it is important to note that the request to complete the feasibility study, at.this time, is in advance of other typical proposals received. The points raised by the developers are reasonable in considering whether the feasibility study should be conducted now rather than following preliminary development plan approval, i.e. preliminary development plan approval involves reviewing actual lot dimensions, topography surveys, location and size of utilities, type and size. of streets, drainage plans, etc. However, this same type of information is required in preparing a feasibility 3 Mayor and Council -3- August 4, 1980 3 LE II study and, if the feasibility study is completed. in advance`of submitting the preliminary development plan, both the City and developers benefit, i.e. the developer is not paying twice to prepare the same information and the City, in reviewing the preliminary development plan, can be reasonably assured that the improvements shown within the development plan meet city standards and can be built in the manner outlined within the development plan. Again, the primary question posed to the City Council is whether improvements within Park One would be considered to be installed by the City as a public improvement project assessed back to benef itting properties.' If such determination is made, it does appear reasonable that such study would be completed at this point in time. Similar to other public improvement projects which are considered to be installed and assessed to primarily one benefitting property owner, a letter of credit, guaranteeing 100% of assessable costs, would be required prior to ordering the public improvement. . 17v_.�_e was presenr- Lo review items nor- completes as setrortn in the non-contormi.ng f use permit.

The Planning Commission recommended that the Council not construct the Lake Lucy Road watermain but instead drill another well at wellfield U. Primary concern by the Planning Commission was the comparison of $125,000 for a new well versus $330,000 for the Lake Lucy Road watermain construction. Council members discussed a connection from the new well in Chanhassen Lakes Business Park along State Highway 5 west to Galpin Blvd. and north on Galpin Blvd. to the existing well. Councilman Neveaux moved to table action until the City Manager defines the costs of running a line along Highway 5 to Galpin B1v& and ways to fund the project. Motion seconded by Councilman Swenson. The following voted in favor: Mayor Hobbs, Councilmen Pearson, Neveaux, Geving, and Swenson. No negative votes. Motion carried.

Jerome Carlson, President Instant Web, Inc. 571 West 78th Street Chanhassen, MN 55317 Re: Park One Developer's Escrow Account Refund Dear Jerome: As you requested in December, 1981, I have completed an evaluation of the Park One Escrow Account and have determined that substantial adjustments are in order based on your agreements with the City Council during 1980. According to City records, your escrow account for Park One should not have been charged for costs associated with the establishment of the Economic Development (Tax Increment) District, which includes all of Park One and several other adjoining properties. These costs were primarily for services rendered by the City Attorney, Schoell and Madson (engineering feasibility study), and BRW, Inc. (tax _increment study) . A total adjustment of $18,763.07 has been credited to your escrow account for correction of this error. Consequently, as of February 4, 1982, your Park One escrow account has a cash balance of $9,399.69. Since you've indicated that you are still interested in proceeding with the development of Park One during 1982, the City will retain a $5,000 escrow balance to cover anticipated future costs associated with this project. The remaining $4,399.69 is being refunded to you at this time (see enclosed check). A revised breakdown of Park One Escrow Account activity since the account was established is also enclosed for your reference. Mr. E. Jerome Car L ii -2- February 24, 1982 If you have any questions concerning this matter, please don't hesitate to contact me.

The current Abstractor's Certificates on both Abstracts are not adequate because they exclude documents without legal descriptions and should be made good from the beginning to cover the descriptions used in this opinion. 8. Ordinances shown at Numbers 39, 61 and 79 of Abstract II also shown at Numbers 40, 60 and 80 of Abstract I. 9. An agreement in 101 Deeds 60 (No. 65-I and 64-II of abstracts) purports to create easements for the benefit of the premises. The abstracts are not certified to cover these easements and we exclude them from this opinion. 10. Rights of Minnetonka Laboratories, Inc. as Lessee in an unrecorded lease dated January 22, 1968, recited in 101 Deeds 60 (No 65-I and 64-II of abstracts), and also disclosed in 60 Mortgages 395 (No 62-II of abstract). The rights of lessee in the premises are required to be extinguished by a quit claim deed and placed of record. 11. We have actual knowledge of the fact that Instant Web, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, occupies the premises purportedly under the terms of a lease with those individuals named as owners in paragraph 1 of this opinion. A certified copy of such lease should be furnished this office for further examination and opinion. 12. Rights of Animal Fair, Inc., as lessee in an unrecorded lease dated February 8, 1968, disclosed in 60 Mortgages 399 (No. 63-II of abstract). The rights of this lessee in the premises are required to be extinguished by a quit claim deed placed of record. In the event any portion of the premises is leased to Animal Fair, Inc. pursuant to Section 12 of Exhibit D, forming a part of that certain Contract for Acquisition and Development, dated May 20, 1981, between the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) and others, the HRA and this office should be furnished with a certified copy of any such lease for our further examination and opinion prior to the closing of said contract for acquisition and development. 13. Existing Roads. (a) There are road easements over the North • 75 feet of Parcel I and the North 33 feet of Parcel II recited in 59 Mortgages 562 (No. 57-I and 59-II of abstracts). (b) There is a Notice of Lis Pendens in Z Misc. 60 (No 49-I and 55-II of abstracts) filed by the State for the taking of highway, including snow fence easements and Chanhassen HRA c/o Scott A. Martin June 24, 1981 Page Three• access limitations, which affects the North edge .(c) Final Certificates in L Misc. 466 (No. 23-I of the premises for Highway No. 5, and includes and.a limitation on access. of the premises. of abstract) takes part snow fence easements We have requested copies of the above referenced documents from the Carver County Recorder for our examination and further opinion as to the ownership of these easements. Additionally, we have also requested a copy of an instrument recorded at Book 115, page 264, Records of Carver County, which may demonstrate an interest of Carver County in these road eaements. The aforementioned contract for acquisition and development provides for the acquisition of the premises, including the road easement areas, described in the caption of this opinion. Therefore, the HRA will acquire the fee under the road easements at the time of acquisition of the captioned premises. However, in our opinion, it is necessary, at this time, for a determination to be made as to whether the state or county is the true owner of the road easements and limited access restrictions which make up CSA Highway No. 16 (West 78th Street). Action by the City to acquire these road easements from qither the state or the county should be taken prior to the institution of any vacation proceedings. We have included this discussion of the road easement matter in this opinion for the purpose of bringing it to your attention at this time so steps can be taken to ultimately acquire the easements from the present owner thereof. 14. The description in entry no. 55 of Abstract I for 93 Deeds 598 seems incomplete. We cannot tell if it affects the premises. This is a power line easement granted to Northern States Power Company. Abstractor should complete the description if it is not complete in abstract. If complete, the easement should be located of record. 15. Without an adequate map or survey we -cannot tell if the deed in 98 Deeds 537 (No. 63-I of abstract) or the easement in 61 Deeds 498 (No. 42-I of abstract) affect the premises. 16. The description in 101 Deeds 66 (No. 66-I and 65-II of abstracts) is not acceptable because it describes the premises in two different ways that are -not exactly the same unless the NW 1/4 NW 1/4 and the NE 1/4 NW 1/4 are both perfect squares. We require a quit claim deed from Frontier Development Corporation, a Minnesota corporation, grantor in that deed, using the description in this opinion. Current searches will be required as to Frontier. Chanhassen H RA c/o Scott A. Martin June 24, 1981 Page Four 17.

Since the next regular Planning Commission meeting at which this could be reviewed is a scheduled holiday for the City, I anti- cipate that the earliest a preliminary plat public hearing could be held would be November 25. Additionally, the City Treasurer has informed me that the escrow account for Park One is in a deficit position. In order for this office to publish a public hearing notice, I will need to have this matter resolved in accordance with the attached state- ment dated October 13, 1981 on or before October 30, 1981.

If this property is to be considered as an "economic development district" such should be considered in advance of Planning Commission/ City Council action regarding rezoning or subdivision - thus the reason such is being presented to the City Council at this time. This item is being presented as a discussion item in an effort to allow the developers an opportunity to present their concepts and desires in regards to the development of this property. It is recommended that action be tabled until such time as the City Attorney has prepared an opinion in regards to the development proposal and staff recommendation received. The City Council may additionally desire such future action to encompass other points of concern of Council members. KORSUNSKY KRANK ERICKSON ARCHITECTS, INC. June 11, 1980 The Mayor and City Council City of Chanhassen 7610 Laredo Dr. Chanhassen, MN 55317 Re: Park One Comm. No. 79-15 Honorable Mayor and Council Members: ARCHITECTS / PLANNERS / INTERIOR DESIGN Park One consists of approximately forty acres of industrial zoned land on the easternmost edge of Chanhassen along Highway 5. With the exception of The Press, Inc., the land is undeveloped. There is public road and utilities just to the North of The Press, and this frontage road dedication continues to the Eden Prairie line. This frontage road divides Park One approximately in half. The South half is relatively flat, agricultural land and is fully visable from Highway 5. This area is readily developable. The North half is heavily wooded and presents considerable topographic relief (up to 60 feet). It is also divided by a natural hollow which provides drainage for a sizeable area. To develop a typical industrial park on this site would be difficult and ecologically undesirable. Vast quantities of earth would have to be moved to create a relatively flat site. Almost all trees would be removed. The drainage pattern would rely strictly on storm sewers, creating potential hazards at discharge locations. Given these constraints, it is proposed that the North half of Park One be an earthsheltered, environmentally compatible development. The key to this solution is constructing a road which works with, and not against the topography. This has been done, and the road as shown on the drawings requires only minor cutting to present a gently rolling profile. This enables us to maintain the natural drainage pattern and create a "duck pond" for excess runoff. It also maintains the natural, wooded character of the site and removes only those trees absolutely necessary to construction. The buildings will be set into the hillsides with a front "walkout" profile, creating a minimum building mass. With such earthsheltering, these buildings will also be highly energy efficient. 555 SHELARD TOWER 600 SOUTH COUNTY ROAD 18 MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55426 (612)546-5381 The Mayor and City Council City of Chanhassen Comm.

As stated in my letter of May 21 to Mr, Larson (copy attached) , such districts need not involve the HRA or interfere in any way with its redevelopment project. On June 9 I will submit to you a brief description of the Park One project, a short description of an economic development district and how they function, and some exhibits which we would request you distribute to the Council along with the agenda for the June 16th meeting. Also, a petition to create a municipal economic development district and a tax increment finance district will be presented. At the request of Mr. Beddor and Mr. Carlson, I have requested the con- sideration by the Planning Commission of the Park One replat project (No. 79-15) be postponed until after the Council meeting of June 16. I attach a copy of that letter. We have received the cost estimate report from Scholl and Madson, Inc, relating to utilities and streets for Park One, a copy of which I am en- closing in the unlikely event you had not as yet received a copy. As indicated in my letter to Russ Larson, we are prepared to work up a method to eliminate any risk to the City in the event of increment fi- nancing shortfalls; and I believe, Don, that these kinds of programs can be creatively negotiated to the advantage of all parties concerned so as to lessen any adverse impact which may result from relocation necessitated by other worthwhile city projects. �1 June 4, 1980 Mr. Don Ashworth Re: Park One Page Two If you feel any other information we have relating to Park One would be helpful, if submitted to the Council with the agenda, let me know and I will get it to you immediately.

The purpose of this request is to allow sufficient time for the equitable owners of Park One to make a presentation to the City"' Council on June 16 relating to the creation of an economic develop- ment project and tax increment financing district for the area. This deferment before the planning commission will aid in the proceedural dovetailing of these matters. If you have any questions , please call. Yo s very truly, j lius C .

You have also forwarded a copy of your letter to Mr. Beddor to me which outlines two different procedures for the installation of these improvements. I cannot advise as to whether or not your assessment of which of the two different procedures we are actually following is correct. It may indeed be the case that Russ Larson. and Jules Smith are preparing a report on the feasibility of a tax increment district for Park One. This is best confirmed by contacting Mr. Beddor. Regardless of which procedure we are following, the subdivision preliminary plat presentation and approval by the Planning Commission appears to be a critical first step, for as you noted it is after this point that the intended use and its financial considerations can be ascertained.

The following generally outlines the procedures to be followed for each of these al te.rnat`ive s : I. Extend Tax Increment District or Create Economic Development District - Russ Larson/Jules Smith to report.on feasibility of, and make written procedural findings and recommendations. - Housing and Redevelopment Authority contracts with attorney and planning firm. to: A.

Both of the alternatives presented in this memorandum, "Creation of Economic Development District" and "Private Development Proposals" accomplish the same ends - development of lands in accordance with City requirements_ Specifically, a tax increment district or economic development district is established because such development would not or could not occ�.r without creation of such a district. These are the findings that werc rude approximately 3 years ago when the business park was developed. The advantages of the tax increment district or economic development district would typically be -t_hat the improvements would be paid by the new taxes created by develop -rent within that district. It additionally has advantages to the City to insure .that improvements/facilities/pl.anning are able to be accomplished on a broader basis than one singular develop- ment, i.e. signalization, major collector street construction, bridge construction, park improvements, etc. The disadvantage of this type of district is time requirements to complete the numerous hearings and to make the findings required by law. In light of the above comments, it is the belief of this office that the Park I development is proceeding as a Private Development Proposal". 'I find. it difficult to believe that the attorneys can still make their findings that the tax increment or economic development district is warrantee given current status of Park.

Additionally, assuming -that this was solely a petiLien for this type o district, I do not consider such to represent the request that I have attempted to continually state, i.e. "Russ Larson/Jules Smith to report on feasibility of and make written, procedural findings and recommendations" regarding whether Park I could be considered as art extension increment district or as an economic development district. in this regard, I know that you have had frustrations with t more specifically myself, in regards to obtaining answers t of the tax . Additionally, he City, and o questions O Mr.'Frank Beddor -4- May 14, 1980 and expediting the overall redevelopment process. I will not apologize for any actions taken by myself in this process. I sincerely believe that the City has accomplished a great deal during the past 3-year period. When I volunteered as executive director for the HRA, I did so recognizing the potential benefits to the City by such a program. — I continue to believe that the redevelopment efforts can be of significant benefit to both the City, existing businesses, and our citizens. However, the job as executive director continues to take time away from the job for which.I was hired, i.e. City Manager responsible to carry out the administration of the City and to advise the City Council in regards to policy matters. All of the correspondence, letters (such as this), meetings, etc. are primarily carried out on my own time. However, I am unable to co��:plete major jobs for which I am responsible, i.e. preparation of the budget, salary and personnel administration, day-to- day operations of the City, etc. No where in the job description for my position is there any mention of administrative staff support to or for the HRA. It is for this reason that I have previously asked to be ra-inved from the position and have recommended that the HRA hire additional personnel for this position. Their problem has been one of not having legal authority, or fund4 to carry out this type of function. Hopefully, with the support of yourself and by adoption of the plan by the City Council, this reco_amendation can be accomplished. I will place this item, on the May 20th agenda.

Backqround 1.. Community Location: As shown in enclosure I, the subject property is located in the southwest quadrant of the intersection of 184th Street and the Chicago Milwaukee St. Paul and Pacific Railroad right - of -way. _ 2. -Existing.. Zoning: The subject property is presently zoned P-4, Planned Industrial. District. 3. Utilities''.;:�-xPursuant to the trunk water and sewer -'service area maps dated Apr-1,1978, the subject property is available to sanitary sewer and water. The present terminus of the nearest sewer and water service is located in the north/south street west of Reply Systems, Inc. to a point approximately 100 feet north of Reply Systems_ 4. Comprehensive Plan Proposals: a. Land Use: Pursuant to the adopted City Comprehensive Guide Plan, the subject property is to assume and maintain an industrial. identity. b. Transportation: The adopted Thoroughfares and Transportation Plan does not indicate any interior street system for the subject property. It is anticipated that the street running north and south along the southwestern border of Park I and bisecting Park I on an east/west alignment will function as a minor collector frontage road. Planning Report -2- ^' May 12, 1980 Comments As shown in the attached materials, a similar request was before the Planning Commission in October, 1979, to consider a site plan review and a replat on the subject property. In this most recent submission of plans for review by the applicant, it has been requested that only subdivision be considered at this time and that site plan review will in all likelihood be carried out sometime in the future. In doing the initial review of the subject proposal last fall, this office felt there were no problems with the subdivision as generally proposed since the most determining factor waswherethe placement of the interior street would be. For sketch plan purposes, this office felt that the street was, in all probability, located in the most acceptable alignment due to the surrounding terrain and physiography, however, the applicant should be aware that depending upon how ownership is ultimately configured, there may be a propensity for this area to require further replatting. Additionally, the Planning Commission should advise the applicant that the present review is only pertinent to the subdivision request and that the building data on the attached sheets is totally dependent upon its feasibility on a detailed basis with the configuration of the subdivision coming forth from this process. Recommendation On a sketch plan basis, I find that the proposal is consistent with the City's plans, policies and ordinances, and recommend that the Planning Commission encourage the applicant to prepare preliminary plat information in accordance with sections 7 and 8 of ordinance 33.

Although this letter can be kept on file in regards to the request to "continue the frontage road and utility services" within park I, such cannot -be further considered until after or as a part of City Council approval of the preliminary plat. The reason for such is obvious, i.e. the City nor the developer can reasonably proceed with installation of improvements without knowledge as to where such are to be placed or why. I am enclosing a copy of a rough outline of procedures to be followed in installation of public improvements within a tax increment district (economic development district) versus private development. This outline was developed solely to give Mr. Beddor an overview of the two processes and should not be considered to be totally conclusive of all agencies requiring review of the development, public hearing requirements, etc. It is your responsibility, as a professional advisor for Mr. Beddor, to insure that development requirements, as outlined in the City.subdivision and platting ordinances, are complied with.

As there has been a substantial change in the make-up of the Planning Commission, it is our intent to resubmit an informal sketch plan review for May 14, 1980.

We will replat this into Block 2, Lots 1 and 2 and Outlot 'A'. Our plans presently show multiple buildings and what will become Lot 1 and Lot 2. As we do not know which buildings will be constructed, nor who the tenants will be, we are merely seeking replat approval and not building or site plan approval. We will be asking the City of Chanhassen to continue the frontage road to Highway 5 and the roads shown to serve Park One. These improvements should include all utilities.

Those taxes are currently estimated at $630,000 to $850,000. Don, I feel that these questions are the same questions that any other businessman in Chanhassen will ask who is being forced to relocate.

Upon further investigation and meetings with The Press President, we are of the opinion that their driveway and truck loading ramp were underdesigned, and that the watermain break had nothing to do with the driveway failure.

Manager/Land Use Coordinator BW:k I PLANNING REPORT CITY OF CHANHASSEN 7610 LAREDO DRIVEOP.O BOX 1479CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 474-8885 DATE: October 22, 1979 TO: Planning Commission and Staff FROM: Ass't. City Manager/LUC, Bob Waibel SUBJ: Site Plan Review, Replat Sketch Plan Review, Park I APPLICANT: Instant Web PLANNING CASE: P-649 Petition The applicant is proposing to construct an approximate 236,600 sq. ft. office/production and warehousing facility on a parcel approximately 10.2 acres in size. Pursuant to City ordinances, said request is subject to site plan, and replat sketch plan review. Background 1. Community Location: As shown in enclosure 1, the subject property is located in the southwest quadrant of the intersection of 184th Street and the Chicago Milwaukee St. Paul and Pacific Railroad right- of-way. 2. Existing Zoning: The subject property is presently zoned P-4, Planned Industrial District. 3. Utilities: Pursuant to the trunk water and sewer service area maps dated April 1978, the subject property is available to sanitary sewer and water. The present terminus of the nearest sewer and water service is located in the north/south street west of Reply Systems, Inc. to a point approximately 100 feet north of Reply Systems. 4. Comprehensive Plan Proposals: a. Land Use: Pursuant to the adopted City Comprehensive Guide Plan, the subject property is to assume and maintain an industrial identity. b. Transportation: The adopted Thoroughfares and Transportation Plan does not indicate any interior street system for the subject property. It is anticipated that the street running north and south along the southwestern border of Park I and bisecting Park I on an east/west alignment will function as a minor collector frontage road. Planning Report -2- October 22, 1979 rnmments As indicated in Mr. Fortier's letter of October 9, 1979, the first phase of construction would entail a building with 117,000 sq. ft. of ground floor area with a total floor area of 133,600 sq. f t. You will note from page 4 of the attached plans, that the proposed structure is to be constructed into the terrain on the north side for more efficient energy application. Because of the possibility that the existing Instant Web facility located in the Animal Faire building will undergo imminent use change relative to the downtown redevelopment project, and that there has been extensive grading of the proposed streets as shown in the attached plans, the applicant is requesting that site plan review be carried out at this time. Since there is the possibility of a use change decision for the existing Instant Web facility early next year, and that the replat process could take as much as two months, Staff believes that review at this time would be timely so as not to potentially delay the redevelopment project. As previously mentioned, there has been significant grading of the interior streets that are shown on the attached plans. Whether or not this has been a violation of the City Excavation Ordinance has not yet been determined, however this office feels that the circulation system proposed and subsequently graded, is in all probability the most acceptable alignment for this portion of Park I. As found in previous planning reports for development proposals in P-4 districts, the Zoning Ordinance is silent in regards to setback, and parking requirements as well as other standards and requirements. You will note in the attached plans, that the applicant is proposing 75 parking spaces with two truck loading zones for the first phase of the development and also a 20-foot rear yard setback. With regard to the rear yard setback, this office has no problem with the proposal due to the proposed above -ground height of the rear wall being less. than 4 feet. However, the applicant should aprise himself as to what effect this setback may have to any future plans of constructing rail- road spur access. With regard to the 75 spaces proposed, this office would request that the applicant furnish the planning commission and staff with detailed employment projections for the first phase. You will note that on sheet 1 of the attached plans, the first phase truck loading areas are to be moved to the front of the building as well as all of the other truck loading areas for the ultimate construc- tion, and that the road right-of-way encroaches considerably on the ultimate parking in the vicinity of building "f" Lot B. Due to these above conditions, and the uncertainty as to the potential parking needs for the ultimate facilities, I would recommend that the Planning Commission consider the condition that parking be restricted to the areas so designated on the site plans. From the plans presented, it is apparent that the applicant is proposing -to replat Lots "a" and "B" at this time. The applicant should enter into the record at this time what his immediate replat intentions are. Upon the statement of replat intentions, this office, finding that the attached plans are adequate for sketch plan review, recommends that the Planning Commission advise the applicant to prepare a preliminary plat in accordance with Sections 6, 7, and 8 of Subdivision Ordinance 33. Planning Report -1 -3- _ October 22, 1979 The Planning Commission at this time should restrict their comments to the proposals compliance with the city's ordinance plans, policies, and ordinances. This office recommends that the Planning Commission defer site plan decision until more definitive information is available on the following: 1. The first phase and ultimate employment projections. 2. The preliminary plat. 3. Utility service plans. Additionally, the applicant should post an escrow with the City Treasurer's office in the amount of $2,000.00 to defray staff costs in processing this application. r WILLIAM D.

This review will encompass a replat of the existing parcel. Pursuant to previous notifications given to you, extensive site alterations have occurred on the property, i.e. removal of trees and earth moving. This is in violation of the City's excavation ordinances. in discussions between Daryl Fortier (your architectural representative), Bob Obermeyer (Engineer - Riley Purgatory Creek Watershed District) and myself, it was determined to be prudent that stabilization of disturbed areas should occur immediately to insure. that erosion did not occur on the property. You should proceed immediately with such erosion control measures as outlined by the Watershed District. In regards to whether the violation of the excavation ordinance has hampered Planning Commission/City Council review of replat considerations- and/or whether any penalties should be established for such will.be left to the Planning Commission and City Council during discussion of site plan reviewandreplatting.''- Again, I would suggest that you note, during Planning Commission/City Council consideration of replatting, that it is not your intent to in any way violate. or supersede City ordinances in regards to your development plans for the property.

No. 79-15 Dear Bob: I am writing this letter to further clarify some of the concerns on Park One. This letter should become part of our submission to the Planning Commission and City Council. Park One is presently owned by Gabbert 6 Gabbert Co. Instant Web Inc. has a contract to purchase this property and is seeking approval for the development as submitted. Park One shall be occupied by light manufacturing, production and warehousing facilities, with related office space. It is the intent of Instant Web Inc. to relocate to Park One and share the new building with United Mailing Inc. As you may know, Instant Web Inc. is a printing firm producing such items as airline ticket jackets, restaurant placemats and similar items. United Mailing Inc. specializes in collating and distributing via mail various pre-printed materials. These two firms will occupy the structure shown on Lot B of Sheet No. A. Firms for the other structures have not been identified at this time. Park One is designed to maintain a sound ecological environment. Natural drainage patterns shall be maintained with increased run off being collected in a sizable ponding area. The pond will settle and filter contaminents as well as control the runoff rate into Eden Prairie. A natural, wooded environment shall be maintained throughout the development with all possible trees being maintained. Roads shall closely follow contours, minimizing tree loss. Structures shall encourage earth sheltering to reduce visual impact, increase energy efficiency, and reduce impermeable surfaces. All landscaping for new buildings shall reinforce the natural environment by using similar trees and ground cover. Sodded areas will be kept to a minimum. Presently we believe all this can happen within the present zoning ordinances without variances. We ask that you review and varify. We also ask that you consider setback standards relative to earth sheltered structures. It does not promote wise land use to required setbacks for essentially underground buildings. A reasonable standard may well be a 2 ft. setback for each foot the structure extends above grade. Thus a totally underground building would be exempt from setbacks. At Park One we would like to set our buildings closer to the rear property lines to allow more open space adjacent to the front of the buildings 555 SHELARD TOWER 600 SOUTH COUNTY ROAD 18 MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55426 (612)546-5381 a Mr. Bob Wiabel 2 and parking areas. October 9, 1979 A timetable for development is somewhat difficult to set. Much of this is due to the development of central Chanhassen where Instant Web Inc. is presently located. Should Instant Web Inc. be requested to relocated, we would need to start construction this winter. Should Instant Web Inc. not be requested to relocate, development may be delayed several years. Regardless of the timetable, we are seeking an excavation and grading permit for Park One to enable work to proceed to assure us that no damage to the site be incurred due to runoff erosion and siltation.

No. 79-15 Dear Frank: ARCHITECTS / PLANNERS INTERIOR DESIGN As you are aware, we have spent considerable time and effort in creating a number of schemes for the development of Park One. A particular concern has been the extensive earthwork.required for the northern most portion. In June 1978 we began the design process based on typical development criteria or an in ustrial park. The criteria included providing rail access to several potential sites and maintaining building sizes of 25,000 to 150,000 Sq.Ft. in floor area. A particular concern was that a single operation or manufacturer could develop or expand to at least 200,000 Sq.Ft. on a single level. In mid -August, after numerous schemes, we concluded our studies. We had reviewed aerial and topographic surveys, site inspection, soil investigations and watershed requirements. We had explored the constraints of rail access and trucking as well as the Chanhassen and State Building Codes. Our conclusions did not reflect favorably on this site as an industrial park. Among our conclusions were: 1.) Rail access would require a 2% or less grade from the existing track. The site would have to be essentially level with an average elevation of 934 ft. on a site which varies from 942 ft. to. 888 ft. 2.) A relatively flat site would be required to facilitate the sizeable building. 3.) A natural drainage pattern would require very sensitive treatment and extensive storm sewer systems. 4.) Considerable retainage of soils would be required along the Eden Prairie border, requiring concrete walls to about fourteen feet in height. 5.) Fill material was not available on site and large amounts of off site material would be required. This requirement alone would cost about $540,000 or about $23,000 an acre. 6.) A composite, total cost for developing the north 23.4 acres would exceed $750,000 or $30,000 per acre. The above conclusions do not favor development for industrial use and strongly support the contention that this site is blighted due to topographic features. 555 SfELARD TOWER 600 SOUTH COUNTY ROAD 18 MIVNEAPOUS, AhM1FSOTA 55426 (,60546-5381 Mr. Frank Beddor Jr. 2 - October 1, 1979 We were also asked to explore other alternative development standards. This led to the elimination of rail access and accomodating all site work with the available material. Our conclusions here were: 1.) Cut and fill costs could be reduced to about $150,000 or $6,500 an acre. 2.) A relatively flat site would still be desired, thus requiring extensive storm sewer systems and retaining walls. 3.) A composite, total cost for developing the north 23.4 Acres would exceed $250,000 or $10,500 per acre. Frank, we remain convinced that the site has substantial topographic features which will prove costly to improve. We will support the motion that this is a blighted site which should qualify for tax incentives to promote development. Without such incentives, the site remains unusually expensive to develop as a traditional industrial park. Sincerly, KORSUNSKY KRANK ERICKSON ARCHITECTS, Daryl P. Fortier DPF/ j 1 RUSSELL H.

It is my recommendation that your survey department draft a storm water easement across the southwest corner of Outlot B, Plat of Park One. Even if the owners of the property were to donate easement #8, it appears to me that public storm waters would still be trespassing on Outlot B.

Dear Craig: I reviewed the storm sewer situation at The Press today and also discussed the meeting held with the City staff and Daryl Fortier of Korsunsky Krank Architects relative to the situation. It appears to be the concern of The Press that the additional storm water run off which would be dispersed into the open trench from the city street could cause an errosion problem in the rather deep ditch crossing The Press property. For this reason, the architect has recommended that the storm sewer be under ground. In effect, the cost of the storm sewer installation would be shared if the City would install the storm sewer pipe and The Press is responsible for back filling and landscaping the area. It is my understanding that this proposal is under consideration by the City staff. We will await a response from staff before we proceed with the easement.

Re: The Press, Inc., ,5f� Frontage Road Water Dear Don: Reference is made to the attached letter of September 24, 1979, from the architects for The Press, Inc. After speaking with Craig Mertz who has made on -site inspections, we are of the opinion that the City should have a comprehensive report from our engineers covering the following areas; a) Cause of water main failure in north -south extension of extended frontage road between Lyman Lumber and The Press. b) Claim of Daryl Fortier that the frontage road is being built at a higher elevation than the plans show, causing water pond on The Press building parking lot as per the third paragraph of Craig's file memo of September 18, 1979, attached. The thought strikes us that drainage to the bituminous paving on the Press property may have been caused by either the water main failure or the ponding of surface water on the parking lot, or both. We are of the view that the engineers should give the City their opinion as to causation.

GU CHANHASSEN, �► i [INN. �� l.,_ , On Tuesday, September 18th, the Chanhassen City Planner, representatives of Schoell &_Madson and I met at The Press to review the easement requested. It was verified that the inverts of both storm lines, the City's and The Press's, are at the same elevation. It was also verified that The Press's line was in place prior to the City's and that the Schoell & Madson documents were issued over a month after The Press was under construction. All parties agreed that an easement is required and that it would be extremely expensive for the City to reroute the storm sewer to the highway right-of-way at this location. I advised Mark Koegler that The Press is willing to grant an easement but only if the storm line is underground and extended into the highway right-of-way. This would require the city to install a manhole at the intersection of the two storm lines and extend a concrete storm line to and beyond the southeast corner of the property. 1 further advised that The Press would complete the site work. This will require you to : 1. Remove the existing sod. 2. Prov-ide a trench, in a straight line, off your property. 3. Fill the trench and Swale with soil. 4. Apply topsoil and sodding. Should the city require a fill material not available on your site, the city should provide this material. This proposal is under consideration by Mark and his staff.
