May 25, 2004: Correct as written.
Motion by Knight, Seconded by Jacobson, approval of the Minutes as written, Motion carried
unanimously.
APPROVE FIRST AMENDMENT TO DECLARATION OF COVENANTS FOR ANDOVER
MARKETPLACE EAST
Community Development Director Neumeister stated at the May 25,2004 EDA meeting,
approval was granted for a TCF Bank to be planned for one of the properties at Andover
Marketplace East. The attorneys have prepared the paperwork that is needed to allow this use of
the property.
Commissioner Jacobson inquired if the primary change had to do with the 10 percent floor space.
Mr. Neumeister replied that was correct.
Motion by Knight, Seconded by Gamache, to authorize the signing of the "First Amendment of
the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants" by the EDA President, Executive Director and City
Clerk.

',-j
Commissioner Trude stated that she has observed the number of parking spaces that are provided
for at other banks and expressed concern that there may not be enough parking spaces
incorporated with this bank.
Mr. Neumeister replied that the current proposal does meet the City ordinance as it pertains to
:J
Andover Economic Development Authority Meeting
Minutes - June 29. 2004
Page 2
parking space requirements., but the EDA will still have one more opportunity to review the plan
and the materials of the proposed building.
Commissioner Trude suggested that maybe they should be reviewing what the City's parking
requirements are for financial institutions.
Mr. Dickinson explained that previous direction from the EDA was that the development group
come back with a plan that would not require any variances and comply with City Code.
Motion carried unanimously.
UPDATE OF ANDOVER STATION NORTH
Community Development Director Neumeister explained the staff has been working to develop a
land use plan and marketing drawing for Andover Station North.
Mr. Neumeister reviewed the schematic drawing for Andover Station North with the EDA.
" \
'J Commissioner Knight inquired as to what type of use would be considered light industrial. Mr,
Neumeister replied that one of the potential uses would be a builder showcase building. He
explained that the units for the light industrial would be carved into 2,000 square foot bases to
accommodate several different uses.
Commissioner Jacobson inquired as to what the net density is in the residential portion of the
development. Mr. Neumeister replied that six to eight units per acre is currently being proposed.
He explained that they would be constructing two different types of units that would be
affordable market rate housing and be owner occupied.
Commissioner Trude suggested replacing the housing units adjacent to Jay Street with office
units that look similar to the housing units. Mr. Neumeister replied that staff did talk to the
developer about that possibility and it was his preference to have the housing come all the way to
Jay Street.
Commissioner Trude replied that she thought it would be a way to bring more commercial tax
base into the City.
Commissioner Knight inquired if it was possible to provide a mix of housing and residential
along the main street.
o
Mr. Dickinson replied that is something they could negotiate with the developer, but noted that in
reality the City would more than likely receive more tax base with the townhouse units rather
than the commercial units because you have to provide for additional parking with the
commercial units.

, ) Andover Economic Development Authority Meeting
Minutes - June 29, 2004

Commissioner Trude replied that typically the smaller single office units don't require a lot of
parking.
Commissioner Orttel inquired if it made sense to provide office above the proposed retail area.
Mr, Neumeister replied that it is very difficult to market second level office space in the suburbs.
Mr. Neumeister inquired if the EDA was in overall agreement with the concept of what is
included in the schematic design for Andover Station North so that they can unveil it at the
Andover GolfTournarnent.
Consensus of the EDA was that they are in agreement with the concept plan for Andover Station
North.
Mr. Dickinson noted that the plan is always open for change,
Commissioner Knight stated that at one point they had talked about having dual purpose parking
areas between the ballparks and the commercial/industrial area and inquired if that was still the
" case. Mr. Neumeister replied that that is something they will look to negotiate before they sell
v the land, but that is the City's ultimate goal.
Commissioner Jacobson inquired as to what the status is to upgrading the intersection of Hanson
Boulevard and 139th. Mr. Neumeister replied that the intersection will have to be designed to
accommodate the traffic that will flow in and out of the Andover North Station.
Commissioner Jacobson inquired if the City was to going to depend on the County to build that
intersection. Mr. Dickinson replied that the County will be upgrading the intersection, but the
City will be asked to participate.
Mr. Neumeister noted that upgrading the intersection is in the County's plan to be completed in
the next two years, but that does not include installing lights at the intersection, which is why the
City would probably have to participate.
Commissioner Nowak inquired if staff was confident that three lanes was going to be adequate to
serve the development. Mr. Neumeister replied that staff will be having consultants review the
concept plan to detennine if the three lanes will work. Originally they had planned for five lanes,
but that was when they were including more commercial development.
CONSIDER CONTRACT/ADVANCE RESOURCES PROPOSAL
~-)
Finance Director/Interim City Administrator Dickinson stated at the May 25, 2004 meeting, the
EDA directed staff to discuss a perfonnance based marketing agreement with Mr. Mike
Mulrooney of Advance Resources for Development, Incorporated, Staff has had discussions
with Mr. Mulrooney and a proposal was presented for the EDA's consideration, Mr. Dickinson
explained that the proposal was similar to the arrangement with Advance Resources for the initial
~ Andover Economic Development Authority Meeting
Minutes - June 29. 2004
Page 4
development of Andover Station. The new proposal proposes various development services
through a consulting fee/commission of seven percent of the negotiated selling price of the
property sold. The proposal is perfonnance based as requested by the EDA, and if the EDA were
to decide to proceed forward with the proposal, staff would recommend that the proposal be
modified to allow that exclusions be made for proposals and contacts that City Staff has
marketed to and secured development interest from in Andover Station North.
Commissioner Trude inquired if Mr. Mulrooney would consider a flat hourly rate to assist with
staff with the process in the situation where staffhas already secured development interest.
Commissioner Nowak inquired if any thought had been given to pay a fee based on a sliding
scale.
Commissioner Trude replied that she was thinking of trying to have staff and Mr. Mulrooney
work together rather than against each other.
.~
Mr. Dickinson explained that staff did discuss with Mr. Mulrooney that they would want
exclusions and he seemed fine with that. His concern is that at this point going forward it could
be very fuzzy as to who those contacts are.
Commissioner Jacobson stated that it seems that staff has had great success already with bringing
in potential users and questioned if it is necessary to even enter into a contract with Advance
Resources.
Mr. Neumeister replied that he thought there were definitely contacts that Mr, Mulrooney has
that City staff does not.
Mr. Dickinson stated that he felt a joint agreement would work fine.
Mr. Orttel inquired if staff felt that $4.5 per square foot was a reasonable market rate, Mr.
Neumeister replied that the retail property is at least that, and the light industrial property would
sell between $2.00 to $4.00 per square foot. He noted that the City does have to consider price
breaks on the commercial/industrial section because surrounding communities are giving the land
away.
Commissioner Orttel inquired if the City would only be selling the building pad, Mr. Neumeister
replied yes.
. \
"0
Commissioner Orttel replied that if that was the case the City was providing a huge subsidy
because the ponding, roads, etc will already be in.
Mr. Dickinson stated that he is hearing from the EDA that they would like staff to discuss the
possibility of a sliding scale fee on commercial/industrial transactions if appropriate, an hourly
rate for service to assist with closings on any of the transactions listed under the exclusion,
~) Andover Economic Development Authority Meeting
Minutes - June 29, 2004
Page 5
Commissioner Jacobson inquired if they would be entering into a one-year contract.
Commissioner Trude replied that she thought it needed to be longer than one year.
Mr. Dickinson inquired if the EDA felt that a seven percent commission was adequate.
Commissioner Nowak replied that a seven percent commission may be adequate if they are
selling property at $4.00 per square foot, but possibly not at $2.00 per square foot.
Mr. Dickinson inquired if that is something that staff should discuss with ML Mulrooney.
Consensus of the EDA was yes.
Mr. Dickinson questioned what the sunset date of the contract should be.
Consensus of the EDA was that the contract should be at least two years.
. \
o Motion by Knight, seconded by Orttel, to direct staff to discuss the possibility of a sliding scale
fee on commercial/industrial transactions if appropriate, include exclusions for current contacts
the City has already entered into discussions with, an hourly rate for service to assist with
closings on any of the transactions listed under the exclusion, and that the contract be a minimum
of two years.
Commissioner Trude inquired if staff was reluctant to move forward with the contract because
they seem to be having good luck marketing the development on their own, Mr. Dickinson
replied that things have been going good, but staff still needs assistance to get the development
filled out in the time they have set forward.
Commissioner Knight inquired if it will be possible to get started with the residential portion of
the development before they begin the commercial/retail areas, ML Neumeister replied that staff
would like to have commercial/retail contracts in place before the residential portion proceeds
forward. Staffhas met with Bruggeman Homes and they seem to be in agreement with the
current timeline.
Motion carried unanimously.
UPDATE ON PROPOSED TIF DISTRICT 1-4
" ,
,--) Community Development Director Neumeister explained that staff held a meeting with the
property owners in the area known as Hughs Industrial Park on June 22, 2004. There were five
property owners representing nine of the properties present. Staff indicated that the process to set
up the District must start over and the City wants to make sure they have discussed with all
potential property owners in the area involved what the opportunity is and whether they would be
~)
Andover Economic Development Authority Meeting
Minutes - June 29. 2004
Page 6
interested in being included in the District. It was explained that in order to assist in qualifying
parcels that will be included in the potential new district there will need to be a visual inspection
and report on the properties to determine whether the conditions present will qualify the property
for inclusion in the tax increment district. It was indicated that the inspection would not be used
for anything other than determining if the site and building will allow the City to qualify the
parcel in the proposed new TIF district. Generally there was acceptance that the City should
proceed with the inspections and analysis of what can be done to set up the District for the entire
Hughs and Westview Industrial Parks.
Mr. Dickinson stated that due to the fact that a few property owners were not present at the
meeting, staff will be individually contacting the other property owners in the area to determine if
they are interested in being included in the proposed district. The general feeling that was
prevalent at the meeting on June 22nd was that the properties could greatly benefit from being
included in the TIF District and that the City should continue in the effort to expand the
boundaries of the original area.
Commissioner Orttel noted that MMHI is currently zoned residential so they should probably
. " make changes to the zoning ifit is going to be included in the TIF District.
,~
~)
There was no action required.
UPDATE ON MONUMENT SIGNS
Community Development Director Neumeister explained staff has been working on determining
the cost of the monument signs and have found that the cost will generally exceed $16,750 per
monument sign. The goal of the EDA was to have monument signs at six to seven locations at
entrances into the Community. Firm cost estimates that staff has received are far in excess of
what had originally been envisioned. Staff is concerned that the direction this is taking is not in
keeping with the original budget and also there are other priorities that they may want to consider
before these signs are authorized. Staff would prefer to have the green metal entrance signs
move forward and receive approval for construction and installation (cost $6,000 to $7,000) and
hold off on the monument style entry signs. There are many costs that could be involved in the
marketing of Andover Station North and staff would prefer to hold off on the large costs
involved in the monument signs until the development of Andover Station North has generated
enough additional revenues to support the large expense involved,
President Gamache inquired if there was CIP money set aside for the monument signs. Mr.
Dickinson replied yes, but explained that with as fast as Andover Station North is developing it
makes sense to hold off on spending that money until the area is developed.
Motion by Jacobson, seconded by Knight, to authorize the construction and installation of the
green metal signs; hold on any further work on the monument style signs until Andover Station
North has been nearly fully developed and there are sufficient additional funds to support the
cost.

INTRODUCTION
Staff held a meeting with the property owners in the area known as Hughs Industrial Park on June 22,
2004. Five property owners were present representing nine of the properties. Staff indicated that the
process to set up the District must start over because of the lack of a quorum at a Council meeting in
June,
,\ This then became an opportunity to make sure we have discussed with all potential property owners in
"J the area what this opportunity is and whether they would be interested in being included in the
proposed TIF District, In order to assist in qualifying parcels that will be included in the potential new
district there would need to be a visual inspection and report on the properties in the area to determine
whether the conditions present will qualify the property for inclusion in the tax increment district (i.e.
site coverage, building conditions, etc,), With the assistance of staff from Ehlers Associates,
inspections were conducted on nearly all the buildings in the area.
DISCUSSION
Staff has also been working with Ehlers Associates, to complete the necessary paperwork and bring
this item before the City Council on August 17, 2004 to establish the new Tax Increment Financing
District in the area of 161~ and Round Lake Boulevard, The prevalent comment at the June 22, 2004
meeting was that the properties could greatly benefit from being included in the TIF District and that
we should continue in our efforts to expand the boundaries of the original area that was to be included,
ACTION REOUESTED
The EDA is requested to review the materials establishing the proposed TIF District 1-4, Consider

RESOLUTION NO,
RESOLUTION ADOPTING A MODIFICATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT
PROGRAM FOR DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 AND ESTABLISHING
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT NO. 1-4 THEREIN AND
ADOPTING A TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN THEREFOR.
WHEREAS, it has been proposed by the Board of Commissioners (the "Board") of the Andover
Economic Development Authority (the "EDA") and the City of Andover (the "City") that the EDA adopt
a Modification to the Development Program for Development District No, 1 (the "Development Program
Modification") and establish Tax Increment Financing District No, 1-4 and adopt a Tax Increment
Financing Plan (the "TIF Plan") therefor (the Development Program Modification and the TIF Plan are
referred to collectively herein as the "Program Modification and TIF Plan"), all pursuant to and in
conformity with applicable law, including Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469,090 to 469.1082, and
Sections 469,174 to 469.1799, inclusive, as amended (the "Act"), all as reflected in the Program
Modification and TIF Plan and presented for the Board's consideration; and
, "
V
WHEREAS, the EDA has investigated the facts relating to the Program Modification and TIF
Plan and has caused the Program Modification and TIF Plan to be prepared; and
WHEREAS, the EDA has performed all actions required by law to be performed prior to the
adoption of the Program Modification and TIF Plan, The EDA has also requested the City Planning
Commission to provide for review of and written comment on Program Modification and TIF Pian and
that the Council schedule a public hearing on the Program Modification and TIF Plan upon published
notice as required by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board as follows:
1. The EDA hereby finds that Tax Increment Financing District No, 1-4 is in the public
interest and is a "redevelopment district" under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469,174, Subd, 10 (a)(I), and
finds that the adoption of the proposed Program Modification and TIF Plan conform in all respects to the
requirements of the Act and will help fulfill a need to develop an area of the State of Minnesota which is
already built up and that the adoption of the proposed Program Modification and TIF Plan will help
provide employment opportunities in the State and in the preservation and enhancement ofthe tax base of
the City and the State because it will discourage commerce and industry from moving their operations to
another state or municipality and thereby serves a public purpose.
2, The EOA further finds that the Program Modification and TIF Plan will afford maximum
opportunity, consistent with the sound needs for the City as a whole, for the development or
redevelopment of the project area by private enterprise in that the intent is to provide only that public
assistance necessary to make the private developments financially feasible,
,
,
,-_./
3, Conditioned upon the approval thereof by the City Council following its public hearing
thereon, the Program Modification and TIF Plan, as presented to the EDA on this date, are hereby
approved, established and adopted and shall be placed on file in the office of the City Administrator,

4, Upon approval of the Program Modification and TIF Plan by the City Council, the staff,
the EDA's advisors and legal counsel are authorized and directed to proceed with the implementation of
the Program Modification and TIF Plan and for this purpose to negotiate, draft, prepare and present to this
Board for its consideration all further plans, resolutions, documents and contracts necessary for this
purpose, Approval of the Program Modification and TIF Plan does not constitute approval of any project
or a Development Agreement with any developer.
5, Upon approval of the Program Modification and TIF Plan by the City Council, the
Interim City Administrator is authorized and directed to forward a copy of the Program Modification and
TIF Plan to the Minnesota Department of Revenue pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 469.175, Subd, 4a.
6, The Interim City Administrator is authorized and directed to forward a copy of the
Program Modification and TIF Plan to the Anoka County Auditor and request that the Auditor certify the
original tax capacity of the District as described in the Program Modification and TIF Plan, all in
accordance with Minnesota Statutes 469.177,
Approved by the Andover Economic Development Authority this 17''' day of August, 2004.

The District is being created to facilitate the demolition of several
substandard buildings, New buildings will be constructed that will
serve primarily as office and warehouse facilities for service
businesses, within the City. The project is expected to be in two
phases. Proposed for Phase I is a 14,000 s,f, building, with an
estimated value of $725,000, The proposal for Phase II includes a
6,000 s,f. addition to the Phase I building ,to be built at a later date,
Deve]opment is likely to begin in the Spring/Summer of 2005. The
balance of the properties in the proposed district are aging and have
expressed interest in a variety of building and site improvements to
expand, upgrade facades or make site improvements to their properties
to bring them up to current building and fire codes,
The duration of TIF District No, 1-4 will be 25 years from the date of
receipt of the first increment (26 years of increment), The date of
receipt of the first tax increment will be approximately 2007, Thus, it
is estimated that District No. 1-4, including any modifications of the
TlF Plan for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after
2032, or when the TIF Plan is satisfied,

Subsection 2-6. Classification of the District
0)
The EDA and City, in determining the need to create a tax increment financing district in accordance with
M,S., Sections 469,174 to 469,1799, as amended, inclusive, find that the District, to be established, is a
redevelopment district pursuant to M.s., Section 469,174, Subd, 10(a)(l) as defined below:
(a) "Redevelopment district" means a type of tax incrementfinancingdistrict consisting of a project,
or portions of a project, within which the authority finds by resolution that one or more of the
following conditions, reasonably distributed throughout the district, exists:
(1) parcels consisting of70 percent of the area in the district are occupied by buildings, streets,
utilities, paved or gravel parking lots or other similar structures and more than 50 percent
of the buildings, not including outbuildings, are structurally substandard to a degree
requiring substantial renovation or clearance;
(2) The property consists of va cant, unused, underused, inappropriately used, or infrequently
used rail yards, rail storage facilities or excessive or vacated railroad rights-ol-way;
(3) tank facilities, or property whose immediately previous use was for tank facilities, as
defined in Section 115C, Subd. 15, if the tankfacility:
(i) have or had a capacity of more than one million gallons;
(ii) are located adjacent to rail facilities; or
(iii) have been removed, or are unused, underused, inappropriately used or infrequently
used; or

(b) For purposes of this subdivision, "structurally substandard" shall mean containing defects in
structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and
ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions,
or similar factors, which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify
substantial renovation or clearance,
(c) A building is not structurally substandard ifit is in compliance with the building code applicable
to new buildings or could be modified to satisfY the building code at a cost of less than 15
percent of the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on the
site. The municipality may find that a building is not disqualified as structurally substandard
under the preceding sentence on the basis of reasonably available evidence, such as the size,
type, and age of the building, the average cost of plumbing, electrical, or structural repairs or
other similar reliable evidence, The municipality may not make such a determination without
an interior inspection of the property, but need not have an independent, expert appraisal
prepared of the cost of repair and rehabilitation of the building, An interior inspection of the
property is not required, if the municipality finds that (1) the municipality or authority is unable
to gain access to the property after using its best efforts to obtain permissionfrom the party that
owns or controls the property; and (2) the evidence otherwise supports a reasonable conclusion
that the building is structurally substandard,
(d) A parcel is deemed to be occupied by a structurally substandard buildingfor purposes of the
finding under paragraph (a) if all of the following conditions are met:
o
(1) the parcel was occupied by a substandard building within three years of the filing of the
request for certification of the parcel as part of the district with the county auditor;
(2) the substandard building was demolished or removed by the authority or the demolition or
removal was financed by the authority or was done by a developer under a development
agreement with the authority;
(3) the authority found by resolution before the demolition or removal that the parcel was
occupied by a structurally substandard building and that after demolition and clearance the
authority intended to include the parcel within a district; and
(4) upon filing the requestfor certification of the tax capacity of the parcel as part of a district,
the authority notifies the county auditor that the original tax capacity of the parcel must be
adjusted as provided by J 469,177, subdivision 1, paragraph (j),
(e) For purposes of this subdivision, a parcel is not occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, paved
or gravel parking lots or other similar structures unless 15 percent of the area of the parcel
contains buildings, streets, utilities, paved or gravel parking lots or other similar structures,
(j) For districts consisting of two or more noncontiguous areas, each area must qualify as a
redevelopment district under paragraph (a) to be included in the district, and the entire area of
the district must satisfY paragraph (a),
In meeting the statutory criteria the EDA and City rely on the following facts and fmdings:
o
o The District is a redevelopment district consisting of 2 I parcels,
o An inventory shows that parcels consisting of more than 70 percent of the area in the District are

o
occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, paved or gravel parking lots or other similar structures,
o An inspection of the buildings located within the District finds that more than 50 percent of the buildings
are structurally substandard as defined in the TIF Act. (See Appendix F),
Pursuant to M.S469,176 Subd, 7, the District does not contain any parcel or part of a parcel that qualified
under the provisions of M.S 273,111 or 273,112 or Chapter 473H for taxes payable in any of the five
calendar years before the filing of the request for certification of the District.
Subsection 2-7. Duration of the District
Pursuant to M,S, Section 469,175, Subd, 1, and Section 469,176, Subd, 1, the duration of the District must
be indicated within the TIF Plan. Pursuant to M.S" Section 469,176, Subd, 1 b, the duration of the District
will be 25 years after receipt of the first increment by the EDA or City (a total of26 years of tax increment),
The date of receipt by the City of the first tax increment is expected to be Thus, it is estimated that the
District, including any modifications of the TIF Plan for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate
after 2032, or when the TIF Plan is satisfied, If increment is received in 2006, the term of the District will
be 2031, The EDA or City reserves the right to decertify the District prior to the legally required date.
Subsection 2-8. Original Tax Capacity, Tax Rate and Estimated Captured Net Tax Capacity
Valuellncrement and Notification of Prior Planned Improvements
PursuanttoM.S, Section 469,174, Subd, 7 and M,S, Section 469,177, Subd. 1, the Original NetTax Capacity
(ONTC) as certified for the District will be based on the market values placed on the property by the assessor
in 2004 for taxes payable 2005.
o Pursuant to M.S" Section 469,177, Subds, 1 and 2, the County Auditor shall certify in each year (beginning
in the payment year 2007 the amount by which the original value has increased or decreased as a result of:
1. Change in tax exempt status of property;
2, Reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of the district;
3, Change due to adjustments, negotiated or court-ordered abatements;
4. Change in the use of the property and classification;
5, Change in state law governing class rates; or
6. Change in previously issued building permits,
In any year in which the current Net Tax Capacity (NTC) value of the District declines below the ONTC,
no value will be captured and no tax increment will be payable to the EDA or City.
The original local tax rate for the District will be the local tax rate for taxes payable 2005, assuming the
request for certification is made before June 30, 2005. The ONTC and the Original Local Tax Rate for the
District appear in the table on the following page,
Pursuant to M.S, Section 469,174 Subd. 4 and M.S, Section 469,177, Subd, 1, 2, and 4, the estimated
Captured Net Tax Capacity (CTC) of the District, within Development District No, I, upon completion of
the project, will annually approximate tax increment revenues as shown in the table on the next page. The
EDA and City request 100 percent of the available increase in tax capacity for repayment of its obligations
and current expenditures, beginning in the tax year payable 2007, The Project Tax Capacity (pTC) listed
is an estimate of values when the project is completed,

request for certification to the County Auditor or its notice of the District enlargement pursuant to M,S.,
Section 469,175, Subd, 4, with a listing of all properties within the District or area of enlargement for which
building permits have been issued during the eighteen (18) months immediately preceding approval of the
TIF Plan by the municipality pursuant to M,S., Section 469,175, Subd. 3, The County Auditor shall increase
the original net tax capacity of the District by the net tax capacity of improvements for which a building
permit was issued,
The City is reviewing the area to be included in the District to determine if any building permits have
been issued during the 18 months immediately preceding approval of the TIF Plan by the City.
Subsection 2-9. Sources of Revenue/Bonded Indebtedness
o
Public improvement costs, acquisition, demolition, utilities, parking facilities, streets and sidewalks, and site
preparation costs and other costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the annual
collection of tax increments, The EDA or City reserves the right to use other sources of revenue legally ap-
plicable to the EDA or City and the TIF Plan, including, but not limited to, special assessments, general
property taxes, state aid for road maintenance and construction, proceeds from the sale of land, other
contributions from the developer and investment income, to pay for the estimated public costs.
The EDA or City reserves the right to incur bonded indebtedness or other indebtedness as a result ofthe TIF
Plan, As presently proposed, the project will be financed by a pay-as-you-go note, Additional indebtedness
may be required to finance other authorized activities, The total principal amount of bonded indebtedness,
including a general obligation (GO) TIF bond, or other indebtedness related to the use of tax increment
financing will not exceed $6,050,000 without a modification to the TIF Plan pursuant to applicable statutory
requirements, It is estimated that $6,050,000 in interfund loans is authorized to be financed with tax
increment revenues. It is estimated that $6,050,000 in transfers is authorized to be financed with tax
increment revenues, It is estimated that $6,050,000 in indebtedness debt proceeds is authorized to be
financed with tax increment revenues.
This provision does not obligate the EDA or City to incur debt. The EDA or City will issue bonds or incur
other debt only upon the determination that such action is in the best interest of the City, The EDA or City
may also fmance the activities to be undertaken pursuant to the TIF Plan through loans from funds of the
EDA or City or to reimburse the developer on a "pay-as-you-go" basis for eligible costs paid for by a
developer-

assistance to the project for certain costs. The EDA has studied the feasibility of the development or
redevelopment of property in and around the District. To facilitate the establishment and development or
redevelopment of the District, this TIP Plan authorizes the use of tax increment financing to pay for the cost
of certain eligible expenses, The estimate of public costs and uses of funds associated with the District is
outlined in the following table,

Transfers $6,050,000
Bond Principal $6,050,000
The above budget is organized according to the Office of State Auditor (OSA) reporting forms,
It is estimated that the cost of improvements, including administrative expenses which will be paid or
financed with tax increments, will equal $7,816,840 as is presented in the budget above.
o
Estimated costs associated with the District are subject to change among categories without a modification
to this TIP Plan, The cost of all activities to be considered for tax increment financing will not exceed,

o
without formal modification, the budget above pursuant to the applicable statutory requirements, Pursuant
to MS, Section 469,1763, Subd. 2, no more than 25 percent of the tax increment paid by property within the
District will be spent on activities related to development or redevelopment outside ofthe District but within
the boundaries of Development District No, I, (including administrative costs, which are considered to be
spent outside ofthe District) subject to the limitations as described in this TIP Plan.
Subsection 2-11.
State Tax Increment Financing Aid (Local Contribution)
M,S" Section 273,1399 (LGNHACA penalty) was repealed by the 2001 Legislature and does not apply to
the District.
Subsection 2-12. Fiscal Disparities Election
Pursuant toM,S" Section 469,177, Subd, 3, the EDA or City may elect one of two methods to calculate fiscal
disparities. If the calculations pursuant to M,S, Section 469,177, Subd, 3, clause a, (outside the District) are
followed, the following method of computation shall apply:
(1) The original net tax capacity and the current net tax capacity shall be determined before the
application of the fiscal disparity provisions of Chapter 276A or 473F. Where the original net
tax capacity is equal to or greater than the current net tax capacity, there is no captured net tax
capacity and no tax increment determination, Where the original net tax capacity is less than
the current net tax capacity, the difference between the original net tax capacity and the current
net tax capacity is the captured net tax capacity, This amount less any portion thereof which
the authority has designated, in its tax increment financing plan, to share with the local taxing
districts is the retained captured net tax capacity of the authority,
(2) The county auditor shall exclude the retained captured net tax capacity of the authority from the
net tax capacity of the local taxing districts in determining local taxing district tax rates, The

of the authority as well as the net tax capacity of the local taxing districts, The tax generated
by the extension of the lesser of (A) the local taxing district tax rates or (B) the original local

Subsection 2-15. Estimated Impact on Other Taxing Jurisdictions
r'
\, ) The estimated impact on other taxingjurisdictions assumes that the redevelopment contemplated by the TIF
Plan would occur without the creation of the District. However, the EDA or City has determined that such
development or redevelopment would not occur "but for" tax increment financing and that, therefore, the
fiscal impact on other taxing jurisdictions is $0, The estimated fiscal impact of the District would be as
follows if the "but for" test was not met:

The estimates listed above display the captured tax capacity when all construction is completed, The tax rate
used for calculations is the actual2003/Pay 2004 rate. The total net capacity for the entities listed above are
based on actual Pay 2004 figures. The District will be certified under the actual2004/Pay 2005 rates, which
were unavailable at the time this TIF Plan was prepared,
Subsection 2-16. Supporting Documentation

o
Pursuant to M.s., Section 469,175, Subd, 5, 6, and 6b the EDA or City must undertake financial reporting
for all tax increment financing districts to the Office of the State Auditor, County Board, County Auditor and

annual statement shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City on or before August 15.
If the City fails to make a disclosure or submit a report containing the information required by M.S, Section
469,175 Subd, 5 and Subd, 6, the OSA will direct the County Auditor to withhold the distribution of tax
increment from the District.
Subsection 2-27. Reasonable Expectations
o
As required by the TIP Act, in establishing the District, the determination has been made that the anticipated
development would not reasonably be expected to occur solely through private investment within the
reasonably foreseeable future and that the increased market value of the site that could reasonably be
expected to occur without the use of tax increment financing would be less than the increase in the market
value estimated to result from the proposed development after subtracting the present value of the projected
tax increments for the maximum duration of the District permitted by the TIP Plan, In making said
determination, reliance has been placed upon written representation made by the developer to such effects
and upon EDA and City staff awareness of the feasibility of developing the project site, A comparative
analysis of estimated market values both with and without establishment of the District and the use of tax
increments has been performed as described above, Such analysis is included with the cashf10w in Appendix
D, and indicates that the increase in estimated market value ofthe proposed development (less the indicated
subtractions) exceeds the estimated market value of the site absent the establishment of the District and the
use of tax increments,
Subsection 2-28. Other Limitations on the Use of Tax Increment
I, General Limitations, All revenue derived from tax increment shall be used in accordance with the TIP
Plan. The revenues shall be used to finance, or otherwise pay the cost of redevelopment of Development
District No, I pursuant to the M,S" Sections 469,090 /0 469,1082, Tax increments may not be used to
circumvent existing levy limit law. No tax increment may be used for the acquisition, construction,
renovation, operation, or maintenance of a building to be used primarily and regularly for conducting
the business of a municipality, county, school district, or any other local unit of government or the state
or federal government. This provision does not prohibit the use of revenues derived from tax increments
for the construction or renovation of a parking structure,
2, Pooling Limitations, At least 75 percent of tax increments from the District must be expended on
activities in the District or to pay bonds, to the extent that the proceeds of the bonds were used to finance
activities within said district or to pay, or secure payment of, debt service on credit enhanced bonds, Not
more than 25 percent of said tax increments may be expended, through a development fund or otherwise,
on activities outside of the District except to pay, or secure payment of, debt service on credit enhanced
bonds, For purposes of applying this restriction, all administrative expenses must be treated as if they
were solely for activities outside ofthe District.
o
3. Five Year Limitation on Commitment of Tax Increments. Tax increments derived from the District shall
be deemed to have satisfied the 75 percent test set forth in paragraph (2) above only if the five year rule
set forth in M,S" Section 469,1763, Subd. 3, has been satisfied; and beginning with the sixth year
following certification of the District, 75 percent of said tax increments that remain after expenditures

o
o
permitted under said five year rule must be used only to pay previously committed expenditures or credit
enhanced bonds as more fully set forth in M.S" Section 469,1763, Subd, 5.
4, Redevelopment District. At least 90 percent of the revenues derived from tax increment from a
redevelopment district must be used to finance the cost of correcting conditions that allow designation
of redevelopment and renewal and renovation districts under M.S" Section 469,176 Subd, 4j. These costs
include, but are not limited to, acquiring properties containing structurally substandard buildings or
improvements or hazardous substances, pollution, or contaminants, acquiring adjacent parcels necessary
to provide a site of sufficient size to permit development, demolition and rehabilitation of structures,
clearing of the land, the removal of hazardous substances or remediation necessary for development of
the land, and installation of utilities, roads, sidewalks, and parking facilities for the site, The allocated
administrative expenses of the EDA or City, including the cost of preparation of the development action
response plan, may be included in the qualifYing costs,

APPENDIX A
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
There are over twenty separate properties included in the proposed District. Currently under consideration
is a proposal to facilitate the demolition of several substandard buildings. New buildings will be constructed
that will serve primarily as office and warehouse facilities for service businesses, within the City. The
project is expected to be in two phases, Proposed for Phase I is a 14,000 s,f. building, with an estimated
value of$725,000. The proposal for Phase II includes a 6,000 s,f, addition to the Phase I building ,to be built
at a later date, Development is likely to begin in the Spring/Summer of2005,
The balance ofthe properties in the proposed district are aging and have expressed interest in a variety of
building and site improvements to expand, upgrade facades or make site improvements to their properties
to bring them up to current building and fire codes,
The EDA and City have determined that it will be necessary to provide assistance to the project for certain
costs which include, but are not limited to demolition costs, site improvements, utility installation and
parking facility costs, The EDA has studied the feasibility ofthe development or redevelopment of property
in and around the District. To facilitate the establishment and development orredevelopment ofthe District,
this TIF Plan authorizes the use of tax increment financing to reimburse for the cost of certain eligible
expenses paid by the developer,

The proposed development, in the opinion oj the City, would not reasonably be expected to o~cr solely
through private investment within the reasonably Joreseeablf' Juture: The proposed redevelopme consists
of small commercial and light industrial busincsses in City of Andover, This area is occupied by parcels,
where some acquisition will be required, demolition and renovation to permit the proposed redevelopment
of the area, The costs of renovation, land acquisition costs and site preparation, on the original project, is
expected to be over $376,000, Without any public assistance, the cost of land utilities, demolition, site
preparation is higher than raw land prices. In addition, with public assistance, other business ownersin the
District have expresscd interest in renovating existing facilities,
The increased market value oj the site that could reasonably be expected to occur without the use oj tax
increment financing would be less than the increase in market value estimated to result from the proposed
development after subtracting the present value oJthe projected tax incrementsJor the maximum duration
oj the TIF District permitted by the TlF Plan:
It is not likely that any new development on this site is feasible without assistance, New development or
redevelopment on the site would not take place in the foreseeable future,
Therefore, the City concludes as follows:
a, The City's estimate of the amount by which the market value of the entire District will
increase without the use of tax increment financing is less than $11,744,288,
b, If all development which is proposed to be assisted with tax increment were to occur in the
District, the total increase in market value would be up to $15,770,280 (see above table),
c, The present value of tax increments from the District for the maximum duration of the district
permitted by the TlF Plan is estimated to be $4,022,922 (see above table),
Even if some development other than the proposed development were to occur, the Council finds that no
alternative development would occur that would produce a market value increase greater than $11,744,288 (the
,~) amount in clause b less the amount in clause c) without tax increment assistance,

Community Development Director Neumeister explained that staff held a meeting with the
property owners in the area known as Hughs Industrial Park on June 22, 2004. There were five
property owners representing nine of the properties present. Staff indicated that the process to
set up the District must start over and the City wants to make sure they have discussed with all
potential property owners in the area involved what the opportunity is and whether they would

be interested in being included in the District. It was explained that in order to assist in
qualifYing parcels that will be included in the potential new district there will need to be a visual
inspection and report on the properties to determine whether the conditions present will qualifY
the property for inclusion in the tax increment district. It was indicated that the inspection would
not be used for anything other than determining ifthe site and building will allow the City to
qualifY the parcel in the proposed new T1F district. Generally there was acceptance that the City
should proceed with the inspections and analysis of what can be done to set up the District for
the entire Hughs and Westview Industrial Parks.
Mr, Dickinson stated that due to the fact that a few property owners were not present at the
meeting, staff will be individually contacting the other property owners in the area to determine
iftheyare interested in being included in the proposed district. The general feeling that was
prevalent at the meeting on June 22nd was that the properties could greatly benefit from being
included in the TIF District and that the City should continue in the effort to expand the
boundaries of the original area.
Commissioner Orttel noted that MMHI is currently zoned residential so they should probably
make changes to the zoning if it is going to be included in the T1F District.

There was no action required,
Communi evelopment Director Neumeister explained staff has been working on determining
the cost ofthe ument signs and have found that the cost will generally exceed $16,750 per
monument sign. Th oal of the EDA was to have monument signs at six to seven locations at
entrances into the Comm 'ty, Firm cost estimates that staff has received are far in excess of
what had originally been enVl ' ned. Staff is concerned that the direction this is taking is not in
keeping with the original budget a also there are other priorities that they may want to
consider before these signs are authori ,Staff would prefer to have the green metal entrance
signs move forward and receive approval fo onstruction and installation (cost $6,000 to
$7,000) and hold off on the monument style en igns, There are many costs that could be
involved in the marketing of Andover Station North staff would prefer to hold off on the
large costs involved in the monument signs until the deve ment of Andover Station North has
generated enough additional revenues to support the large exp e involved,
President Gamache inquired if there was CIP money set aside for the m ument signs,
Dickinson replied yes, but explained that with as fast as Andover Station No
makes sense to hold off on spending that money until the area is developed,
o
Motion by Jacobson, seconded by Knight, to authorize the construction and installation 0 e
green metal signs; hold on any further work on the monument style signs until Andover Statio
North has been nearly fully developed and there are sufficient additional funds to support the
cost.

Re: Andover Station North (Exclusions)
Dear Mr. Mulrooney:
As we discussed, the City of Andover has been working with a number of businesses and developers
who may want to buy property directly from the City of Andover in the area known as Andover
Station North. As you know, the City found a great deal of interest in the sites for town house
development and selected Bruggeman Homes to become the developer of choice for the housing area
in Andover Station North, During those discussions, we learned that Bruggeman is also interested in
potentially developing offices in the same area, Therefore, we have listed them as exclusions to both
the housing and office development at Andover Station North.
, \ The remaining exclusions have been working with the City Staff for some time and include the
V following companies or individuals:
. Thomas Bissen -- Copperwood Investments
. Michael Casey -- Northstar Glass Industries, Inc.
. Michael Monson - Benson-Orth Associates, Inc,
. Keith Ulstad - United Properties
. Tom Palmquist - Ryan Companies, US, Inc,
. Kevin Maas - Amcon, Inc.
. Mike Quigley -- Emmerich Companies, Inc.
We ask that in preparing the final form of the contract for your services, please list these names and
companies as exclusions, The City would ask that the final form of the contract to be non-exclusive,
Meaning if the City locates other individuals or companies that are interested, and you did not
provide the lead, there will be no finders fee paid to Advance Resources for them to purchase
property in Andover Station North, The contract should also include an hourly fee if we should need
your services to complete a sale with the people or companies named above, If you should have any
questions please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,

initial development of Andover Station, The new proposal proposes various development
services through a consulting fee/commission of seven percent of the negotiated selling price of
the property sold. The proposal is performance based as requested by the EDA, and if the EDA
were to decide to proceed forward with the proposal, staff would recommend that the proposal
be modified to allow that exclusions be made for proposals and contacts that City Staff has
marketed to and secured development interest from in Andover Station North.
Commissioner Trude inquired if Mr. Mulrooney would consider a flat hourly rate to assist with
staff with the process in the situation where staff has already secured development interest.
Commissioner Nowak inquired if any thought had been given to pay a fee based on a sliding
scale.
Commissioner Trude replied that she was thinking oftrying to have staff and Mr. Mulrooney
work together rather than against each other.
Mr. Dickinson explained that staff did discuss with Mr, Mulrooney that they would want
exclusions and he seemed fine with that. His concern is that at this point going forward it could
o be very fuzzy as to who those contacts are.
Commissioner Jacobson stated that it seems that staff has had great success already with
bringing in potential users and questioned if it is necessary to even enter into a contract with
Advance Resources.
Mr. Neumeister replied that he thought there were definitely contacts that Mr. Mulrooney has
that City staff does not.
Mr, Dickinson stated that he felt ajoint agreement would work fine.
Mr, Orttel inquired if staff felt that $4.5 per square foot was a reasonable market rate. Mr.
Neumeister replied that the retail property is at least that, and the light industrial property would
sell between $2,00 to $4,00 per square foot. He noted that the City does have to consider price
breaks on the commercial/industrial section because surrounding communities are giving the
land away,
Commissioner Orttel inquired if the City would only be selling the building pad. Mr,
Neumeister replied yes.
Commissioner Orttel replied that if that was the case the City was providing a huge subsidy
because the ponding, roads, etc will already be in.

Mr, Dickinson stated that he is hearing from the EDA that they would like staff to discuss the
possibility of a sliding scale fee on commercial/industrial transactions if appropriate, an hourly
rate for service to assist with closings on any of the transactions listed under the exclusion.

DATE:

INTRODUCTION
On June 29, 2004 the attached colored drawing was reviewed by the EDA so that it may be
presented at the EDA Business Appreciation Day Golf Outing on the 30th. In order to
implement the vision for medium density housing for this area, there will need to be a land
use plan amendment processed through the City Planning Commission and City Council, that
is ultimately approved by Metropolitan Council.
~J DISCUSSION
The land use plan amendment would change the land use for this area. The land use is
currently shown as commercial and also high density residential and that would be changed to
medium density residential, Provided the EDA agrees with this request, staffwill bring this
forward to the Planning Commission on August 24, 2004,
ACTION REOUIRED
The EDA is asked to review this change in land use and authorize the staff to proceed to the
next step. That step being review and approval of the land use plan change to medium density
residential over an area of approximately twenty acres in Andover Station North, Provided
the land use changes are approved by the City Council and ultimately the Metropolitan
Council, the zoning map would also need to be changed to M-2, Multiple Dwelling.

~ UPDATE OF ANDOVER STATION NORTH
Community Development Director Neumeister explained the staff has been working to develop a
land use plan and marketing drawing for Andover Station North.
Mr. Neumeister reviewed the schematic drawing for Andover Station North with the EDA.
Commissioner Knight inquired as to what type of use would be considered light industrial. Mr.
Neumeister replied that one of the potential uses would be a builder showcase building, He
explained that the units for the light industrial would be carved into 2,000 square foot bases to
accommodate several different uses,
Commissioner Jacobson inquired as to what the net density is in the residential portion of the
development Mr. Neumeister replied that six to eight units per acre is currently being proposed.
He explained that they would be constructing two different types of units that would be
affordable market rate housing and be owner occupied,
Commissioner Trude suggested replacing the housing units adjacent to Jay Street with office
units that look similar to the housing units. Mr. Neumeister replied that staff did talk to the
developer about that possibility and it was his preference to have the housing come all the way to
Jay Street,
Commissioner Trude replied that she thought it would be a way to bring more commercial tax
base into the City.
Commissioner Knight inquired if it was possible to provide a mix of housing and residential
along the main street
Mr. Dickinson replied that is something they could negotiate with the developer, but noted that
in reality the City would more than likely receive more tax base with the townhouse units rather
than the commercial units because you have to provide for additional parking with the
commercial units,

SUBJECT:
Review Request from United Properties for Use of Lot for Financial Institution -Planning
DATE:
August 17, 2004
INTRODUCTION
On May 25, 2004, the EDA reviewed whether the lot at the southwest comer of Martin Street and Bunker
Lake Boulevard could be allowed to be used for a TCF Bank As you will recall, the EDA approved of the
modifications to the Covenants to allow the use of that site for a financial institution. Recently, United
Properties verbally requested the same change to allow Outlot C, located at the northeast comer of Quinn
. 'i Street and Station Parkway, to also be allowed to be used for either an office building or a financial
-./ institution.
DISCUSSION
In the previous discussion, the case was made by the developer, Ryan Companies, that attempts were made
to market the site for a sit-down restaurant They also had indicated that they would like to accommodate
the desire of the EDA for a sit-down restaurant, but the reality is that the market did not support it The
property in question does not have the high visibility that the site at the comer of Bunker and Martin Street
had. Staff is supportive of the changes to the covenants to allow the property known as Outlot C, located at
the northeast comer of Quinn Street and Station Parkway, to allowed to be sold for use as a financ'ial
institution,
ACTION REOUESTED
The EDA is requested to consider the request from United Properties and allow the covenants to be changed
to allow the use of the property known as Outlot C, Andover Marketplace East, to be used for an office
building or as a financial institution.
Res~ submitted,
Will Neumeister

parking space requirements., but the EDA will still have one more opportunity to review the plan

,~ \
'- J Commissioner Knight' quired as to what type of use would be considered light industrial. Mr.

explained that the units for light industrial would be carved into 2,000 square foot bases to
accommodate several different es,

development Mr. Neumeister replied t six to eight units per acre is currently being proposed.
He explained that they would be construe ' g two different types of units that would be
affordable market rate housing and be owner cupied.
Commissioner Trude suggested replacing the hOUSl units adjacent to Jay Street with office
units that look similar to the housing units, Mr. Neu ister replied that staff did talk to the
developer about that possibility and it was his preference have the housing come all the way to
Jay Street
Commissioner Trude replied that she thought it would be a way to
base into the City.
Commissioner Knight inquired if it was possible to provide a mix ofhousi
along the main street
Mr. Dickinson replied that is something they could negotiate with the developer, bu oted that
.' ') in reality the City would more than likely receive more tax base with the townhouse u 's rather
,,__ than the commercial units because you have to provide for additional parking with the
commercial units.
