Discuss Development Scenario Proposed by the Beard Group for Crossroad 44 Pointe, Located at Southwest Corner of County Roads 10 and H2 45 Mounds View EDA November 23, 2015 Regular Meeting Page 2 1 Executive Director Ericson stated the EDA owns parcels at the corner of County Road H2 and 2 County Road 10 that are 4.25 acres in size. This land has been assembled over the course of 3 several years in an attempt to foster redevelopment. He discussed the highest and best uses for 4 the property and noted feedback from the public has been sought throughout the entire planning 5 process. He provided comment on a tour the Council went on to view several new 6 redevelopment sites in the metro area. 7 8 Executive Director Ericson explained that during the planning process, The Beard Group 9 submitted a plan for the site, which consisted of 119-unit market rate rental property (Phase I) on 10 the former Roberts site, with an additional phase (Phase II) of development to be determined. He 11 requested the EDA discuss this site further along with The Beard Group’s proposal and provide 12 staff with feedback and direction on how to proceed. 13 14 President Flaherty requested comment from The Beard Group representatives on their Phase I 15 and Phase II plans for the Crossroad Pointe site. 16 17 Bill Beard, The Beard Group, explained a phased approach would allow for proper construction 18 staging. In addition, this would assist with the lending process as two separate lenders would be 19 involved in the project. 20 21 Commissioner Mueller asked if there would be more interest in Phase II after Phase I was 22 complete. Mr. Beard believed this to be the case. 23 24 Commissioner Mueller requested an update on the 5 Central project in Osseo. Mr. Beard 25 reported the property was 95% full. He anticipated that by the end of January the building would 26 be 97% occupied. He reported his retention rate for this building was near 60%, which was 27 reaffirming that the site was a good fit for the community. 28 29 Vice President Gunn supported the project at Crossroad Pointe being completed in two phases. 30 She did not want to see Phase II constructed with retail that was an improper fit for Phase I. 31 32 Commissioner Mueller provided a brief history of the Crossroads Pointe site and the EDA’s 33 proposed redevelopment plans. 34 35 Commissioner Meehlhause was comfortable with the project being completed in two phases. He 36 discussed the potential for several local businesses to relocate and expand onto this site. 37 38 Commissioner Hull supported the site being developed in two phases. 39 40 President Flaherty indicated the City was 85% developed and had very little property to 41 redevelop. He was of the opinion the vision for the Crossroad Pointe property should be more 42 Mounds View EDA November 23, 2015 Regular Meeting Page 3 than multi-family housing. He did not see a “wow” factor within the proposed plan by The 1 Beard Group. He wanted to see the site become a destination in the City of Mounds View. He 2 was in favor of the City waiting until a special commercial development came along. He did not 3 support splitting the parcel into Phase I and Phase II. He feared there would be little interest in 4 the tiny sliver of commercial land that would remain. 5 6 President Flaherty questioned how much of the site was being proposed for multi-family housing. 7 Executive Director Ericson reported 2 acres of the 4.25-acre site was being proposed for multi-8 family housing. 9 10 Commissioner Meehlhause requested comment from Business Development Coordinator 11 Beeman regarding his thoughts on the Crossroads Pointe property. Business Development 12 Coordinator Beeman reported he has been in contact with 40 developers regarding the Crossroad 13 Pointe property with seven showing real interest. He provided further comment on the proposals 14 from the various developers. He discussed how the market in the north metro would be changing 15 once development began on TCAAP. 16 17 President Flaherty encouraged the EDA to wait and see how the TCAAP site developed before 18 moving forward with the Crossroad Pointe site. He questioned how the EDA wanted to proceed 19 with the site. 20 21 Commissioner Meehlhause supported the proposed two-phased approach. 22 23 Commissioner Hull was in agreement. 24 25 Commissioner Mueller believed the two-phased approach would work in Mounds View and 26 thought the proposed units would provide multi-generational housing for the City’s residents. 27 She understood there was a need for additional housing with amenities for young, urban 28 professionals. She supported the project being done sooner rather than later as she did not want 29 to miss out on a great opportunity and have new residents moving to TCAAP instead of Mounds 30 View. 31 32 Vice President Gunn supported the two-phased approach to the site as proposed by The Beard 33 Group. 34 35 President Flaherty reiterated that he believed the City was jumping the gun but explained he 36 would support the consensus of the EDA. 37 38 8.

Meeting Date: September 12, 2016 Type of Business: EDA Business City Administrator Review: ______ City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Economic Development Authority From: Mark Beer, Finance Director Item Title/Subject: Resolution 16-EDA-293 Approving the Special Benefit Tax Levy for the Purpose of Defraying the Costs Incurred by the Mounds View Economic Development Authority for Fiscal Year 2017 The City Council is considering establishing a property tax levy to continue to promote economic development activity within the City. Previously the City’s economic development activities were funded with tax increment revenues. These tax increment revenues were discontinued as required by state statute. This left the City with limited resources to continue existing business outreach, marketing, advertising, small scale incentives, property acquisitions, professional services, and staff training and development. The City Council has discussed establishing a levy of $100,000 for these purposes. The City’s EDA has been authorized with joint powers of an Economic Development Authority (EDA) and a Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA). The EDA may choose to establish either an EDA levy or an HRA levy, or both, to fund the above activities. The HRA levy provides the greatest flexibility in accomplishing the above activities and is administratively more efficient. The City Attorney has opined that neither levy would be subject to the charter levy limitations as each is considered a distinct corporate entity with individual powers from the City as outlined in State law. The proposed levy would represent a 2.26% increase in the City’s property taxes. State law requires that a “special taxing district” certify a preliminary property tax levy to Ramsey County by September 15. Once this amount is set, the levy cannot be increased but can be lowered. A Truth-In-Taxation meeting will be held December 5, 2016 at 6pm at City Hall. The final levy will be adopted on or about December 12, 2016 Respectfully submitted, ___________________________ Mark Beer, Finance Director 485711v2 AMB MU205-13 RESOLUTION NO. 16-EDA-293 MOUNDS VIEW ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY COUNTY OF RAMSEY STATE OF MINNESOTA APPROVING THE PRELIMINARYSPECIAL BENEFIT TAX LEVY FOR THE PURPOSE OF DEFRAYING THE COSTS INCURRED BY THE MOUNDS VIEW ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY FOR THE YEAR 2017 WHEREAS, the Mounds View Economic Development Authority (the "EDA") was created by the City Council of the City of Mounds View (the "City Council") by its adoption of an "Enabling Resolution" No. 4532, dated March 28, 1994 pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.090 to 469.1081 (the "EDA Act"); and WHEREAS, the Enabling Resolution was amended by Resolution No. 8467 dated November 23, 2015, whereby the EDA was granted all of the powers, rights, duties, and obligations set forth in Minnesota Statutes Sections 469.001 to 469.047 (the "HRA Act"); and WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 469.033, Subd. 6 of the HRA Act, with the consent of the City, the EDA is authorized to levy a special benefit tax within its area of operation, not to exceed 0.0185 percent of the City's taxable estimated market value, for the purpose of defraying its operational costs (the "HRA Levy") NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mounds View Economic Development Authority Board of Commissioners as follows: 1.
