DATED: December 20, 2004 ATTEST: City Clerk SJB- 240584v1 LN 140 -80 May -43- AGENDA ITEM 6C STAFF ORIGINATOR: Mary Alice Divine DATE: 12/20/04 TOPIC: Consideration of Resolution No. 04 -201 Approving modification of Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 1 -11 VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 BACKGROUND: The City of Lino Lakes approved TIF District No. 1 -11 on November 24, 2003. The establishment of this 25 -year Redevelopment District was intended to provide a source of revenue for development of the city's downtown area, known as Woods Edge, and is comprised mainly of the Arctic Sandblasting site and the Tagg home. Because of some minor adjustment to the site plan for Woods Edge, the Tagg home site (PIN 17- 31 -22 -12 -0005) is now a part of the YMCA site and no longer a part of the Woods Edge Planned Unit Development Earlier this evening the Lino Lakes Economic Development Authority approved a modification of the TIF Plan to remove the parcel. This resolution removes the Tagg home parcel from the district before certification, which will occur by year- end. Elimination of the parcel and delay in certification do not materially change the impacts and TIF estimates in the plan. OPTIONS: 1. Approve Resolution No. 04 -201 Modifying TIF District No. 1 -11 2. Do not modify the district. 3.
