Item No: 8.A.2. <br />Meeting Date: December 14, 2020 <br />MOTypeUN-DISVVIEW of Business: Council Business <br />CityAdministrator Review: <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: City Council <br />From: Mark Beer, Finance Director <br />Item Title/Subject: Resolution 9360 Approving the EDA Property Tax Levy Request <br />for Fiscal Year 2021 <br />Previously the City's economic development activities were funded with tax increment revenues. <br />These tax increment revenues were discontinued as required by state statute. This left the City <br />with limited resources to continue existing business outreach, marketing, advertising, small scale <br />incentives, property acquisitions, professional services, and staff training and development. The <br />City Council as part of the 3 year Strategic Plan indicated that maintaining this levy is a priority. <br />The EDA established levies in 2017 to help accomplish some of the above goals. There is no <br />proposed increase in the total levied for 2021. <br />The EDA adopted a request to the City to levy $100,000 on behalf of the EDA at the September 14, <br />2020 meeting and the City Council approved that request at the September 14, 2020 meeting and <br />there is no change in that request since preliminary adoption. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Mark Beer, Finance Director <br />486850v2 AMB MU205-13 <br />
