Lauderdale City Council Meeting Minutes, August 31, 2004 Page 4 D. Consideration of a Larpenteur Avenue Redevelopment Contract for Services with Ehlers' and Associates. The City Administrator stated that the City Council provided direction to city staff at their last meeting to pursue a contract with Ehlers and Associates for Larpenteur Avenue redevelopment services following a review of proposals from Ehlers and Springsted. Mayor Dains provided some background on this issue by stating the discussion of this redevelopment initiative dates back to the creation and approval of the Lauderdale Comprehensive Plan in the mid -1990's. He also noted that that the area to be included in the redevelopment study is south of Laipenteur Avenue to Idaho Avenue and east of Eustis Street to Carl Street, with the inclusion of one building east of Carl Street. Getschow stated that the scope of services delineated in the contract is identical to the elements of the proposal that the City Council has endorsed. It should be noted that only 2-4 to as many as all of the elements of the process could be fully utilized depending on this project proceeds. The City Council is entering into this project with open eyes. They want to evaluate all the redevelopment options that may be available. In terms of covering the cost of the contract, 50% of the cost of the services is being funded through a Metropolitan Council LCDA Opportunity Grant. The remaining 50% of the potential $41,965 contract is funded through a portion of proceeds received from Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) in 2003 as a result of the sewer treatment cost error. Motion by McCloskey, second by Gill -Gerbig to approve the contract for services between the City of Lauderdale and Ehlers and Associates for the Larpenteur Avenue Redevelopment Project. Roll: Yes: all. Motion carried. 10. ITEMS REMOVED FORM THE CONSENT AGENDA 11. ADDITIONAL ITEMS 12. SET AGENDA FOR THE NEXT MEETING - START TIME AT 8:00 P.M. 1. 2005 Preliminary Tax Levy 2.

As I noted at a previous meeting, the final levy is certified in December. Also at that December meeting, the final 2005 Budget will be adopted. Remember: In certifying the final levy in December, the Council can decrease the amount from the proposed levy amount from September, but it cannot increase the amount. Also, the proposed levy amount is the information given to all residents in the proposed county tax statement that will be sent in November. As you may recall, the State Legislature took major action in 2000 and 2001 by lowering the state class rates for determining tax capacity. Based on this change, and in spite of median property values increasing at a brisk pace for the last 6-8 years, the Lauderdale tax capacity decreased in 2001 and 2002. But since the State Legislature has not changed the class rates for determining tax capacity in the recent years, the Lauderdale tax capacity has increased for two consecutive years. In addition to the overall increased property values, we are continuing to see the full value of the new commercial property west of Highway 280 coming on to the property tax rolls. The overall total market value of the city for 2005 has increased along with the tax capacity from $1,370,005 to an estimate of $1,552,484. That is a 13% increase from 2004. This is extremely important because the Council will not need to consider a raised tax rate, and thus higher taxes throughout the city, because our tax capacity has been increasing. In past years when state class rates were lowered, the city's tax capacity decreased. This meant that taxes were vulnerable to rising for residents of Lauderdale because of the major burden shift from the commercial, industrial and public utility property owner to the residential property owner. This has even occurred under the conditions of the enactment of a lower tax levy. Fortunately, we have not dealt with this scenario for the past two years as a result of our tax capacity increases. ENCLOSURES: 1. Levy Spreadsheet Options A,B,C,D and E 2. Spreadsheet comparing the 2004 Median Value Home and Tax Rate to the 2005 Median Value Home and Proposed Tax Rates 3. Resolution 091404A: A Resolution Approving the Preliminary 2005 Lauderdale Tax Levy (There is an applicable resolution for all options being considered) COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Based on Council budget discussions at work sessions and the financial data presented here, I am presenting five options for the City Council to approve a preliminary levy. OPTION A SAME REGULAR LEVY AS 2004 (SEE SPREADSHEET A) This was the option that was selected for the 2001, 2003 and 2004 Levy. It resulted in a decrease in the tax rate in those years. In 2002, the levy was decreased by $8,406, but the tax rate increased. As you know, this was due to the 2001 Legislative reform of the state class rates, whereby even a lowering of the levy could not lower the city tax rate. Similar to 2003 and 2004, choosing the no levy increase option will once again lower the city tax rate. As you can see from the Option A spreadsheet, if the levy is kept the same for 2005, the city tax rate will decrease from 28.8% to 25.88%. This means that the proposed 0% levy increase would bring tax bills down by the same percentage that the city tax rate is decreasing. The average residential tax bill in Lauderdale (on a $145,200 house) will decrease by $41.84 or 10%, assuming property values are equal. But property values have not remained equal for the past several years. Property values have risen. For 2005, the highest increase for a given property is 15%. This percentage has continued to increase since the State Legislature is phasing out the limited market value policies that were created to shield fast rising property values from substantial tax increases. As a result of this, I have created a new spreadsheet that highlights the difference between the 2004 median valued home's tax rate and the 2005 median valued home's proposed tax rate. The same house valued at $125,700 with a 28.76% tax rate in 2004 would see a $28.82 increase in city taxes in 2005 as a $145,200 house with a 25.88% tax rate. As you can see from the last paragraph, the $28.82 tax increase, plus another $41.84 that would have been saved through the lower tax rate, is completely due to the increase in property valuation. This option of the same levy in 2005 has been factored into the preliminary 2005 Budget. Under this option, expenditures in the 2005 General Fund Budget are held to a 1% increase. This is unlike 2004, when this option resulted in a 3% decrease in the budget as a result of the state aid cut. Finally, it is important to note that this option still lowers the city tax rate, and subsequently the city residential tax bill, by 10%. OPTION B 1.5% OR TNT APPROVED LEVY INCREASE — STILL A LOWER TAX RATE THAN 2004 (SEE SPREADSHEET B) This option captures a small percentage of the tax capacity increase, but still produces a tax rate that is lower than 2004. As you can see from the Option B spreadsheet, if the levy is increased 1.5% for 2005, the city tax rate will decrease from 28.76% to 26.35%. This means that the proposed 1.5% levy increase would bring tax bills down by the same percentage that the city tax rate is decreasing. The average residential tax bill in Lauderdale (on a $145,200 house) will decrease by $35.05 or 8.3%, assuming property values are equal. This 1.5% increase is proposed here because it is the highest increase that would still not trigger the need for an official Truth -In -Taxation hearing. All Minnesota cities with a population over 500 are required to hold Truth -In -Taxation hearings if their property tax levy increase is greater than the implicit price deflator which is 1.5%. It is important to note that any option chosen besides Option A or B will trigger the need for a Truth -In -Taxation hearing. This potential action item is on the agenda following the approval of the preliminary levy, if needed. When examining the difference between the 2004 median valued home's tax rate and the 2005 median valued home's proposed tax rate, the same house valued at $125,700 with a 28.76% tax rate in 2004 would see a $21.03 increase in city taxes in 2005 as a $145,200 house with a 26.35% tax rate. This option would yield $7,260 in general fund revenue. OPTION C 2% LEVY INCREASE — STILL A LOWER TAX RATE THAN 2004 (SEE SPREADSHEET C) This option still captures a small percentage of the tax capacity increase and produces a tax rate that is lower than 2004. As you can see from the Option C spreadsheet, if the levy is increased 2% for 2005, the city tax rate will decrease from 28.76% to 26.50%. This means that the proposed 2% levy increase would bring tax bills down by the same percentage that the city tax rate is decreasing. The average residential tax bill in Lauderdale (on a $145,200 house) will decrease by $32.86 or 7.9%, assuming property values are equal. This 2% increase would trigger the need for an official Truth -In -Taxation hearing. When examining the difference between the 2004 median valued home's tax rate and the 2005 median valued home's proposed tax rate, the same house valued at $125,700 with a 28.76% tax rate in 2004 would see a $23.23 increase in city taxes in 2005 as a $145,200 house with a 26.50% tax rate. This option would yield $9,600 in general fund revenue. OPTION D 3% LEVY INCREASE — STILL A LOWER TAX RATE THAN 2004 (SEE SPREADSHEET D) This option continues to capture a small percentage of the tax capacity increase and still produces a tax rate that is lower than 2004. As you can see from the Option D spreadsheet, if the levy is increased 3% for 2005, the city tax rate will decrease from 28.76% to 26.81%. This means that the proposed 3% levy increase would bring tax bills down by the same percentage that the city tax rate is decreasing. The average residential tax bill in Lauderdale (on a $145,200 house) will decrease by $28.37 or 6.8%, assuming property values are equal. This 3% increase would trigger the need for an official Truth -In -Taxation hearing. When examining the difference between the 2004 median valued home's tax rate and the 2005 median valued home's proposed tax rate, the same house valued at $125,700 with a 28.76% tax rate in 2004 would see a $27.71 increase in city taxes in 2005 as a $145,200 house with a 26.81% tax rate. This option would yield $14,400 in general fund revenue. OPTION E 4% LEVY INCREASE — STILL A LOWER TAX RATE THAN 2004 (SEE SPREADSHEET E) As is the case will all options presented, this one would but still produce a tax rate that is lower than 2004. As you can see from the Option E spreadsheet, if the levy is increased 4% for 2005, the city tax rate will decrease from 28.76% to 27.12%. This means that the proposed 4% levy increase would bring tax bills down by the same percentage that the city tax rate is decreasing. The average residential tax bill in Lauderdale (on a $145,200 house) will decrease by $23.88 or 5.7%, assuming property values are equal. This 4% increase would trigger the need for an official Truth -In -Taxation hearing. When examining the difference between the 2004 median valued home's tax rate and the 2005 median valued home's proposed tax rate, the same house valued at $125,700 with a 28.76% tax rate in 2004 would see a $32.21 increase in city taxes in 2005 as a $145,200 house with a 27.12% tax rate. This option would yield $19,200 in general fund revenue.
