No minutes attached to approve,
DISCUSS ANDOVER STATION NORTH IMPROVEMENTS
Mr. Neumeister reviewed information regarding the Andover Station North Improvements and
the supplemental information provided regarding the cost estimates to move forward with
utilities and streets. The feasibility study that was prepared in 2003 was never been presented to
the EDA and staffhas been working with Short Elliot and Hendrickson to prepare an amended
feasibility report for the needed public improvements,
Mr. Berkowitz discussed how the attached supplemental sheet shows the assessable costs of
$61,000 per acre that would allow the EDA to recoup costs to rebuild the roadway. The cul-de-
sac would be kept separate for future development. Some of the non-assessable costs include the
oversizing of the trunk, overpass and contaminate clean up.
Commissioner Trude asked if 2.8 million is for the entire street throughout the entire site,
Mr. Berkowitz stated that the costs include all residential, commercial and park properties. The
costs include site grading and a signal at 139th, The site grading is the most difficult due to the
amount of fill that must be brought in,
Commissioner Trude asked if the EDA authorized the feasibility study.
Mr, Dickinson stated that the feasibility study was authorized when the marketing plan was put
together over 1 year ago.

Commissioner Trude asked about RLK doing a study.
Mr, Dickinson said that RLK did an environmental study,
Mr, Berkowitz stated that he could look into exactly when the study was authorized. The RFP
submission process was done during the time Scott Erickson was City Engineer.
Mr. Berkowitz discussed how the land use has changed from a 5 lane roadway to a 3 lane
roadway, Originally SEH was asked to look at a Big Box concept versus what is current. RLK is
working on doing a concept approval to market the park. SEH is the underlying engineer on the
entire project
Commissioner Trude stated that Doug Hanson had been looking for information a while ago and
she was not aware of this study being done,
Commissioner Knight asked what the purpose of pad fInishing was,
/ "
'-J
Mr, Neumeister stated that this is related to number 4, Discuss Andover Station North
Residential Land Sale,
DISCUSS ANDOVER STATION NORTH RESIDENTIAL LAND SALE
Mr, Neumeister stated that since the City will be doing the mass grading on site, it makes sense
to prepare this as part of the grading, Bruggeman is willing to negotiate a higher purchase price
because the City will be doing the grading and tree clearing needed, This increases the purchase
price that they are willing to give,
Commissioner Trude noted the EDA needs to trust the staff on the numbers,
Commissioner Orttel asked if the light on I 39th was included in the numbers,
Mr, Berkowitz stated that yes it was, and that the County is not able to pay for it at this time.
Commissioner Orttel stated the street costs do not include expansion to the full 4 lanes. Is this
okay with the County?
Mr. Berkowitz stated that the County would in the future need to build it to the .full 4 lanes, but
that 3 lanes is all that is needed currently, These are the minimum road improvements required.
/ '\
'-j Commissioner Knight asked if Bill Hawkins has gone through this,
Mr. Neumeister stated no,
Discussion then revolved about lighting of Andover Station North and that this was a significant

portion of costs.
Commissioner Trude asked if this lighting makes sense. She stated that it may just be a waste if
people are just driving by,
Mr. Neumeister asked if the EDA would like to continue the same lighting theme as Andover
Station?
Commissioner Trude asked if there were still problems with the original lighting?
Mr. Berkowitz stated that yes there were issues and the City is still dealing with the
manufacturer, supplier and City Attorney to get some issues resolved,
Discussion involved checking with Connexus Energy about other lighting options.
Mr. Dickinson then discussed TIP fmancing and how the dollars would pay for the road
improvement project.
Commissioner Gamache asked about the accessibility of improvements to Pov's Sports Bar,
"
"
Commissioner Orttel stated that assessments were waived when Pov's was built and the City
should look into this for future assessments,
Commissioner Trude asked about the park assessments and felt that they did not make sense,
Mr. Neumeister stated that staff is going by City policy and there would be some benefit to the
park.
Mr. Neumeister stated that a decision does not need to be made on these issues right now. He
would like a decision at the next meeting on September 21,2004, since there is so much
information to look at.
DISCUSS ANDOVER STATION NORTH MARKETING CONCEPT
Community Development Director Neumeister stated that an error occurred in the packet and
pages 2, 3, and 4 should not have been attached,
Mr. Neumeister stated that Mr, Mike Mulrooney has developed a contract to assist with the
marketing of Andover Station North, The contract is for a period of I year.
Commissioner Knight asked about Section 4 and why the City would need to pay 3-'1,% for
projects that they found.

Mr. Neumeister stated that the EDA had requested Mr. Mulrooney come back to them with an
hourly cost; however this contract is what he provided.
Discussion about why Mr. Mulrooney would get the 3-1/2% fee and some examples such as
Bruggeman homes was discussed as being completely done by staff. Other discussion about
what exactly the 3 \1,% would be for and the marketing Mr. Mulrooney would perform,
Commissioner Trude felt that Bill Hawkins should be able to close the deals.
Commissioner Orttel stated that he still did not understand what the need for the contract was,
He stated that there should be a map that shows exclusions for specific property that staff has
already identified purchases of.
Commissioner Knight stated that there should be a cap on the total amount of commissions
earned from property that City staff has already identified possible interest in.
Mr, Neumeister stated that this does not need to be decided tonight and can be brought back to
the September 21,2004, EDA meeting with some more fine tuning,
UPDATE ON ANDOVER STATION
Mr, Neumeister sated that the TCF building is again a possibility, but in front of Festival Foods.
Ryan Construction is still planning on a retail strip in front of Target. Therefore the City will get

June 29,2004: Correct as written.
July 6, 2004: Correct as written.
MOTION by Jacobson, Seconded by Orttel, approval of the Minutes as written, Motion carried
unanimously.
Commissioner Jacobson wondered why some of the members are not showing up for the
meetings, Mr. Dickinson stated they are notified every month and Mr, Nowak did tell him he
would not be able to make the meeting because he would be out of town, He explained that Mr,
Nowak usually does come to the meetings.
Commissioner Jacobson was concerned because the EDA is a board consisting of City Council
members and residents of Andover and he felt the resident members should be at the meetings,
Commissioner Trude arrived at 6:05 p,m.
DISCUSS PROPOSED TIF DISTRICT I-4/APPROVE RESOLUTION MODIFYING
DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT NO.1 AND TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN FOR TIF
DISTRICT 1-4
Interim Executive Director Dickinson stated 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,

Mr. Neumeister reviewed information regarding the TIF District with the Commission and why
the commercial owners want the two residential properties included,
Commissioner Jacobson asked if this was jerry mandering to meet code. Mr. Neumeister stated
the person they have consulted asked they do not jerry mander to make this meet code,
Mr. Dickinson stated right now the property owners cannot insure their buildings for full value
because of water issues,
Commissioner Jacobson stated the residential properties do not seem to want to be included, Mr.
Dickinson stated the end residential owner does not want to be included and they are willing to
take that property out but they requested the Commission keep the other residential property in
for reasons explained,
Commissioner Jacobson asked what the other residential owner would do with the land that
would be the community septic system, Mr. Dickinson stated the owner could split the lot and
sell that portion off.
Commissioner Trude stated even if the residential land is in the TIF District, they could use and
maintain their land as they want to for as long as they want but it just gives them some financial
options if they want to sell out Mr. Dickinson stated this is correct Commissioner Trude stated
this could potentially raise the land value quite a bit if it could be sub-divided as commercial or
business use.
Commissioner Jacobson asked what the difficulty was of adding them in at a later date. Mr.
Dickinson stated they could add them in the future but the difficulty is in how long they can
collect an increment on them. He stated there becomes some real criteria issues trying to attach
to that
Commissioner Orttel stated they could still develop it but they would not get subsidy.
Commissioner Trude stated the advantage to them would to be included in the TIF District from
the beginning, Mr, Dickinson stated that is correct because they can always take them out of the
TIF District.
Mr. Dickinson stated they need to fine tune the numbers in order to bring accurate numbers
forward and they had to switch inspection firms. They would like to get this extended to a future
date in September.
Commissioner Jacobson asked if they need to certifY by a certain date, Mr, Dickinson stated this
did not really matter at this point, it is when the value raises and they start to receive the
increment dollar that the clock starts ticking.

Commissioner Orttel asked if the rural reserve is filled out to Constance Boulevard, there is no
sewer capacity left to go north of there. Mr, Berkowitz stated their plan through the Rural
Reserve is to oversize this to handle development to the north. Commissioner Orttel stated the
reason he asked this was because the people on the residential property felt it is probably better to
have it commercial than residential, Having it commercial, they would be able to market their
property fairly quickly at a decent price,
APPROVE ANDOVER STATION NORTH MARKETING CONTRACT
Community Development Director Neumeister stated on June 29, 2004 the EDA authorized staff
to begin working one a contract with Mr. Mike Mulrooney, Advanced Resources, to assist in
marketing Andover Station North, Staff met with Mr. Mulrooney on July 20th to review his
contract proposal and indicated the terms and conditions that he should include in the final form
of his contract for services,
Mr, Neumeister stated they have not received all of the information for this item yet and they
would like to continue this until the September EDA meeting,

Commissioner Trude noted she had a correction to the EDA meeting dated June 29, 2004 on
page 2, Councilmember Knight did not inquire about a mix of housing and residential, he
inquired about a mix of housing and office. "Commissioner Knight inquired ifit was possible to
provide a mix of housing and r-esiaential offices along the main street-"
DISCUSS ANDOVER STATION NORTH DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Community Development Director Neumeister stated 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.
Motion by Commissioner Orttel, Seconded by Commissioner Jacobson, to approve the land use
change,
Commissioner Jacobson asked if there is anything else that needs to be taken care of so they
could send it all in together, Mr. Neumeister stated he would rather see it done this way because
the Met Council reviewing under forty acres at a time, processes it as a minor plan amendment
and it can be processed within ten days, He stated he would rather not take the whole hundred
acres in at one time because it could take awhile to explain to the Met Council and screw up the
plans for Bruggeman.

Minutes - August 17, 2004

Neumeister stated it is all commercially zoned. The land use plan shows high density in one
small quadrant.
Commissioner Trude stated she is going to oppose this because she does not think they should
have more than ten acres because of the lack of commercial development and tax base,
Mr. Neumeister stated the Met Council is still holding them to 120 units of affordable housing
which this ten acres would have provided at 12 units per acre. This is six units per acre which is
considerably less than 12 units per acre which leaves a considerable amount of open space in a
housing type that hits their criteria for affordable.
Commissioner Orttel asked how many units are on the City land. Mr. Neumeister stated 108.
Commissioner Knight asked what the definition is for affordable, ML Dickinson stated it would
be between $180 to $200 thousand. These units would start at around $180.
Commissioner Jacobson thought they agreed with the Met Council to reserve affordable housing
in certain areas. Mr, Neumeister stated that if they reduce the counts in this area, they will have
to increase them elsewhere,
Commissioner Knight asked where they would put high density housing, Mr, Neumeister stated
there are two areas they could put high density. He showed on the map where the areas are
located.
Motion carried 4 ayes, I nay (Trude).
REVIEW REQUEST FROM UNITED PROPERTIES FOR USE OF LOT FOR FINANCIAL
INSTITUTION
Community Development Director Neumeister stated on May 25, 2004, the EDA reviewed
whether the lot at the southwest corner of Martin Street and Bunker Lake Boulevard could be
allowed to be used for a TCF Bank The EDA approved 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 corner or Quinn Street and
Station Parkway, to also be allowed to be used for either an office building or a fmancial
institution,
Commissioner Jacobson asked why they want this changed, Mr, Neumeister stated United
Properties felt this was a use they would like to market to, When you look at the area, because
there is not high visibility off of Bunker, this would work well as a financial building, He stated
they bring high tax value with very low service levels,
Commissioner Jacobson stated they already have a number of bank buildings in the area.

Commissioner Trude asked if they change this parcel, wouldn't it make most of the area office.
She stated this land is more visible than Andover Station North ever will be.
The Commission discussed the possibilities of future retail versus office areas in Andover Station
South.
Motion by Commissioner Jacobson, seconded by Commissioner Trude, to deny the request.
Commissioner Knight asked what happens if they deny the request. Mr. Neumeister stated
United will probably not sign off on the TCF Bank site,
Commissioner Trude thought they could solve this problem by having United come back when
they have a distinct plan,
Motion carried 4 ayes, I nay (Gamache),
VERBAL UPDATE ON ANDOVER STATION
'\
City Engineer Berkowitz stated the wetland mitigation and storm water basin have been created
on the north side which is complete without any issues tied to it, He stated that as they got to the
south side, they knew they had petroleum contaminants and they are working through the PCA,
Leash and Ryan Companies evaluating the petroleum issues, He stated they have to take samples
out of each pile and evaluate each one, He explained the big benefit for the area is that they got
Ryan Companies to build the storm water ponds, wetland mitigation and the outlet pipes for both
of the ponding areas.
Commissioner Orttel asked if they have three hundred yards of spoiled material. Mr, Berkowitz
stated that was correct.
OTHER BUSINESS
Commissioner Knight asked what was happening with the garden golf course, Mr. Neumeister
stated Mr. Ward did not get Target's approval for his use in front of their store so he thought they
might allow him to use the back pond area instead.
Motion by Jacobson, Seconded by Knight, to adjourn. Motion carried unanimously. The meeting
adjourned at 7:00 p,m.

DATE:
September 21, 2004
INTRODUCTION
The City staff in conjunction with Ehlers Associates, have now put together a fmal report that
is going to the City Council on September 21, 2004 that includes twenty parcels in the area that
is referred to as the Hughs Industrial Park (see attached location map),
The public hearing was continued for three City Council meetings to allow adequate time to
complete additional inspections of properties that has resulted in a better district and has
allowed additional public input
DISCUSSION
Ehlers Associates has completed the necessary paperwork to bring this forward for fmal action
and the industrial property owners in the proposed district are "on board" with the proposed
district. This District will enable them to achieve something that has been woefully inadequate
for many years, that being the lack of a comprehensive sewer, storm and potable and irrigation
water supply for their properties. These improvements to the area will be the primary focus of
how the tax increment dollars will be used. The secondary focus will be improving the
aesthetics of the area., both buildings and grounds.

SUBJECT: Discuss Andover Station North Improvements--Planning
DATE:
September2l,2004
INTRODUCTION
~
This item was brought before the EDA on September 7,2004 and was continued to this meeting,
Due to the progress that has been made with regard to negotiating an agreement with Bruggeman
Properties, there is now a need to discuss the extension of streets and utilities into Andover
Station North. As you will see in the next item on the agenda, the decision to move ahead with
ordering, designing and bidding a public improvement project to bring utilities and streets into the
area becomes timely,
DISCUSSION
Staffhas worked with Short Elliot Hendrickson to prepare an amended feasibility report for the
needed public improvements. In the spring of2003, staff began to discuss the land use plan and
issues related to the development of Andover Station North, and direction was given at that time
by the previous City Administrator to prepare a feasibility report, That report was prepared, but
never presented, Now with the letter of intent from Bruggeman, it needed to be revised and costs
evaluated to make a decision on whether this project should be moved forward,
The engineer's estimated costs are shown on the attached spreadsheet The costs on the sheets are
based on a preliminary design of the roadway, which is now anticipated to be a three-lane design
with the center lane being a turn lane, There is a need to do site grading all at once and that is
also shown on the tally sheet
u
The decision needs to be made whether utilities and streets can be extended halfway from Btmker
Lake Boulevard to Hanson Boulevard, or all the way, to Hanson Boulevard. Halfway is the
minimum needed in order to be able to extend lateral lines and streets into the Bruggeman
townhome site, Bruggeman, at this point, is a potential contract purchaser and the City EDA is
the underlying landowner, For this to move forward, the EDA must make the decision to petition
for the improvement project (at least Phase I) and the City Council must be willing to consider
assessing the property that benefits. This would also potentially involve other properties in the
area, including Povlitski's and the Great River Energy property along Btmker Lake Boulevard,
Bruggeman is working on putting together a purchase agreement with Mr.Povlitski to buy the
portion of his property that is located along Jay Street and the portion that would enable all the
townhomes to be built according to the attached schematic plan.
'"
Cost and Financial Commitments
By authorizing the Phase 1 of Jay Street to begin, the EDA would be committing to bearing an
assessment against the property owned by the EDA. Phase 1 is estimated to cost a little more than
half (assume 60%) of the estimated overall assessable costs,
Estimated Assessable Project Costs (to build entire Jay Street to Hanson Blvd.): $3,708,049
Assuming sixty percent of project costs attributable to the Phase I construction: $2,224,829
These costs would be offset by the land sale to Bruggeman Properties $1,767,000 (based on 114
housing units), paid over the next two years, with interest the amount will be on the order of
$1,912,600.
Other potential land developers that staff is working with are in the process of preparing "Letters
of Intent" that may be available in the next two weeks. These two potential land sales could allow
the entire Jay Street project to be constructed all at the same time. If these materialize, staff
would bring this back to the EDA for review, and request authorization for the entire project to be
moved forward,
Also, take into consideration that there are other costs that would be attributable to serving the
surrounding properties (Povlitski, and Great River Energy, and the City for the park complex)
with utilities and street access. The swnmary is provided below:
-,
Povlitski assessable (residential site)
Povlitski assessable (new office area)
City Park assessable
City non-assessable
EDA non-assessable
TOTAL
$345,451
$277,584
$370,126
$177,763
$187.387
$1,358,311
Contaminant Removal
The City staff has been working with Ryan Companies and Leisch to quantify the amount and
type of contaminants at the excavation site for the wetlands in Andover Station North and
complete the needed clean up of contaminants for the Target site in Andover Station South, At
this point in time, it appears that the costs involved that are attributable to the EDA are on the
order of$300,000. The staff will provide further details at the meeting.
ACTION REOUIRED
The EDA is requested to receive the information, take this opportunity to discuss the
spreadsheets and the overall direction this needs to move to accommodate the Bruggeman
townhome development.

\.J
The EDA is requested to make a decision on beginning the work involved in Phase 1 of Jay Street
(utilities and streets) and whether to request the City Council to hold a public hearing and begin
the Chapter 429 Assessment process for the involved areas,
In a few weeks, as other "Letters of Intent" are provided by other developers, staff will bring
forward another discussion item on this topic to consider the authorization of the entire project all
at the same time.

Discuss Alldover Station North Residential Land Sale-Planning
DATE:
September 21, 2004
INTRODUCTION
The City StalIhave been negotiating a residential land sale with Bruggeman Homes and it has resulted in a "Letter of Intent"
that is attache<L
:J
DISCUSSION
While discussing the best method to determine land sale price, it was determined that the City would sell Bruggeman a parcel
that was graded, and had no additional charges for hringing a trunk sewer and water line to the edge of the property, The
developer's "Letter of Intent" explains this under the sellers responsibilities and it also explains under buyers responsibilities
that they are willing to pay a fee for area and connection charges as is consistent with City of Andover policy for city installed
improvements, They would also bear the costs of all lateral and street costs for extending the streets and utilities into the
property from Jay Street. This is important to keep in mind during these discussions as the actual costs of those items does
add significantly to the developer's costs, Attached is a detail that shows area charges will amount to an estimated $349,992
(based on 108 housing units) on the lands they would purchase from the EDA and will also be approximately $162,571 (based
on 50 units) on the residential land they plan to purchase from Mr. Brad Povlitsh These numbers may change slightly based
on actual units and acreage on each property,
The terms also indicate that they will provide $20,000 earnest money at the time of execution of a purchase agreement and an
additional $80,000 earnest money payment at the time of preliminary plat approval, and then another $100,000 at
the time of closing, StalIfeels this shows a major commitment to the development being done in a timely fashion, Another
important point to acknowledge is the timing that they are planning on taking down the frrst phase. They indicate that if the
City can agree to complete the first lift of asphalt by August 1,2005 they would close by February 28, 2005, This would be an
additional $389,000 that would be paid next spring, The remaining land in Phase II would be closed on in two years. Based
on the updated count of 114 housing units, the amount shown in the "Letter of Intent" needs to be changed to add an additional
$93,000, The balance of the amount due would be financed by the EDA at 6% compounded annually forthat period of time,
Using the higher total housing unit count, there would be a balance due of$I,323,600 on February 28,2007. Total land sale
would then amount to $1,912,600,
ACTION REOUIRED
The EDA is asked to review the "Letter oflnten!" from Bruggeman Homes and determine whether the terms are acceptable,
If they are, the EDA is asked to authorize stalIto: I.) Work with the City Attorney to prepare a purchase agreement on the sale
ofIand in Andover Station North to Bruggeman Properties; and 2.) Authorize stalIto begin the Chapter 429 process for public
improvements to fulfill the contract date of August I, 2005 to have installed utilities and completed the frrst lift of asphalt for
the frrst phase of the development,

SUBJECT: Update on Andover Station South -Planning
DATE:
September 21, 2004
INTRODUCTION
An update is being provided to the EDA on what is happening at Andover Station, as things do change on
a regular basis, Overall, everything is beginning to look very nice, Bruggeman Properties townhome
models are open for viewing during the Parade of Homes, and things there look very nice,
DISCUSSION
As you will recall in May of this year the EDA acted on a request from Ryan Construction to modify the
covenants to enable a TCF Bank to work out a deal to locate in front of the TARGET store. Since that
time, the bank deal has gone away, and now the site is being considered for a 10,000 square foot retail
convenience center (see attached site plan sketch). They are contemplating the endcap will be a drive
through for a coffee house. This will require the approval by the Planning Commission and Ci1y Council.
The developer, Ryan Construction has indicated that TCF was not willing to build on the site any sooner
than 2007, therefore they are now pursuing a retail building on the site. We have had recent discussions
with the developer and it is likely the TCF will be located in front of the Festival Foods at Quinn Street
and Bunker Lake Boulevard.
Walgreens is on schedule for completion in early November, and opening before Thanksgiving, TARGET
store is on schedule for completion in early December with opening scheduled before Easter.
The banners have been ordered for the light fixtures and should be on the light poles by the end of
September.
We are working on getting irrigation on Outlot E installed so that the grass can be seeded and be ready for
when Walgreens opens this fall, This is an ideal time for grass seed to germinate.
ACTION REOUIRED
No action is needed, this is written to keep the EDA updated on the latest information regarding the
progress at Andover Station.

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. I (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 469.1 082, 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
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 Plan 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:
L 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 of the 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 EDA 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 21" day of September, 2004,
