ACTION ITEMS
A. Lyngblomsten Senior Community: i. Consider Resolution No. 19-01, Approving
Tax Increment Financing Plan for District 1-13 — Community Development Director
Grochala reviewed the written report that includes information on elements of the proposed
project, how the project has come forward to the council, developer's request for financial
assistance for the project in the form of tax increment financing, and elements of the City's
proposal to provide tax increment financing for the project. Mr. Grochala reviewed the total
amount available for increment and the proposal for providing tax increment ($3.2 million).
The City Council held a public hearing on this and no public comment was received. The Plan
was approved at that time. He noted that the council is currently being asked to consider a
contract for private developmenet which lays out the details for the assistance provided. He
reviewed how increment will be provided. He noted that staff has continued to have discussions
about the valuation figures and a change is noted in the report.
Julie Eddington, Kennedy and Graven, public finance counsel, addressed the council. She
offered a reminder that the independent and skilled living will include 20% affordable units. She
noted provisions in the contract that could reduce the tax increment note: lower construction
costs and/or costs are lower for the later developed skilled nursing element, and/or if the
developer sells their land around the facility at a profit. In the minimum assessment agreement,
the number will be increased after the meeting and prior to execution of the contract.
EDA Member Reinert noted the council's request that construction costs be followed.
Community Development Director Grochala said they have WSB reviewing the numbers and
will also have BakerTilly providing auditing services; there will be review prior to submittals.
