Meeting Date: September 14, 2020 Type of Business: EDA Business City Administrator Review: ______ City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Mounds View Economic Development Authority From: Mark Beer, Finance Director Item Title/Subject: Resolution 20-EDA-337 Approving the Preliminary EDA Property Tax Levy Request and Budget for Fiscal Year 2021 Previously the City’s economic development activities were funded with tax increment revenues. These tax increment revenues were discontinued as required by state statute when the tax increment districts were decertified. 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 EDA proposes to continue a levy of $100,000 for 2021. The City’s EDA is requesting that the City Council levy on behalf of the EDA $100,000 to support the above activities within the City of Mounds View. The 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 proposed EDA budget of $244,000 is attached, there will be changes as additional information becomes available. Once this amount is set, the levy cannot be increased but can be lowered. A Truth-In-Taxation meeting will be held December 7, 2020 at 6pm at City Hall. The final levy will be adopted on or about December 14, 2020.
