City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Mounds View Economic Development Authority
From: Mark Beer, Finance Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 21-EDA-346 Approving the Preliminary EDA Property
Tax Levy Request and Budget for Fiscal Year 2022
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 2022. 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 $249,633 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 6, 2021 at 6pm at City Hall. The final levy will be adopted on or
about December 13, 2021.
Respectfully submitted,
