WHEREAS, it has been proposed by the Board of Commissioners (the "Board") of the Mounds View Economic Development Authority (the "EDA") and the City of Mounds View (the "City") that the EDA adopt a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan (the "Redevelopment Plan Modification") for the Mounds View Economic Development Project (the "Project Area") and establish Tax Increment Financing District No. 1-7 (Villas of Mounds View) (the "District") and adopt a Tax Increment Financing Plan (the "TIF Plan") therefor (the Redevelopment Plan Modification and the TIF Plan are referred to collectively herein as the "Plans"), all pursuant to and in conformity with applicable law, including Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.001 to 469.047, and Sections 469.174 to 469.1794, inclusive, as amended (the "Act"), all as reflected in the Plans and presented for the Board's consideration; and WHEREAS, the EDA has investigated the facts relating to the Plans and has caused the Plans to be prepared; and WHEREAS, the EDA has performed all actions required by law to be performed prior to the adoption of the Plans. The EDA has also requested the Council to provide for review of and written comment on the Plans and that the Council schedule a public hearing on the Plans upon published notice as required by law. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board as follows: 1. The EDA hereby finds that the District is in the public interest and is a "housing district" under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subd. 11, and finds that the adoption of the proposed Plans 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 Plans will help increase the availability of safe and decent life- cycle housing in the City, add a high quality development to the City, and preserve and enhance the tax base of the City and the State and thereby serves a public purpose. 2. The EDA further finds that the Plans 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. The boundaries of the Project Area are not being expanded.
