The Commissioners of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota (the "HRA") and the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota (the "City"), have previously approved Kenzie Terrace Redevelopment Plan, Chandler Place Redevelopment Plan, Highway Eight Redevelopment Plan, Redevelopment Plan for Redevelopment Project No. 2 and Redevelopment Plan for Redevelopment Project No. 3, together with certain amendments thereto (the "Redevelopment Plans") and redevelopment projects (the "Redevelopment Projects") to be undertaken pursuant thereto, and in order to finance the public redevelopment costs to be incurred by the City and the HRA in connection with certain of the Redevelopment Plans and Redevelopment Projects, the HRA and the City have approved Tax Increment Financing Plans (the "Financing Plans"), which establish two tax increment financing districts which are designated by the HRA as • follows: Kenzie Terrace Tax Increment District (Hennepin County No. 1950) and Chandler Place Tax Increment District (Ramsey County No. 58) (the "Districts"). The Board of Commissioners of the HRA has approved an amendment to the Redevelopment Plans and the Financing Plans which is entitled "Master Modification to Redevelopment Plans and Tax Increment Financing Plans" (the "Master Modification"). The Master Modification combines the areas'subject to the Redevelopment Plans and expands the area subject to the Redevelopment Plans and authorizes the expenditure of tax increment revenues derived from the Districts to pay public redevelopment costs in the additional area made subject to the Redevelopment Plans by the Master Modification and costs related to construction of a community center designed to serve residents of the City. 2. This Council on June 27, 1995, held a public hearing on the Master Modification after notice of the public hearing was published in the official newspaper of the City not less than ten (10) days prior to the date of the hearing. At such public hearing all persons desiring to be heard with respect to the Master Modification were given an opportunity to express their views with respect thereto. 3. This Council has previously found that the Kenzie Terrace Tax Increment District is a redevelopment district within the scope of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, subdivision 10, and that the Chandler Place Tax Increment District is a housing district within the scope of Minnesota Statutes Section 469.174, • subdivision 11, and the Master Modification will not change such prior findings. The Master Modification further serves the original goals and purposes of the City • and HRA in approving the Redevelopment Plans, the Redevelopment Projects and the Financing Plans, by developing property in the City and by providing needed facilities which will be of benefit to all residents of the City, including those residing in the area subject to the Redevelopment Plans, prior to the inclusion of the additional property by the Master Modification. 4. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, subdivision 4, it is hereby found that: (A) Kenzie Terrace Tax Increment District, is a redevelopment district, as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, subdivision 10, and Chandler Place Tax Increment District is a housing district, as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, subdivision 11, for the reasons set forth in previous findings by this Council, and the Master Modification does not alter these previous findings. (B) The proposed development to be undertaken in accordance with the Redevelopment Plans, as amended by the Master Modification, in the opinion of this Council would not occur solely through private investment • within the reasonably foreseeable future and therefor the use of tax increment financing is deemed necessary. (C) The Financing Plans, as amended by the Master Modification, conforms to the general plan for the development of the City as a whole. (D) The Financing Plans, as amended by the Master Modification, will afford maximum opportunity consistent with the sound needs of'the City as a whole for the development of the area subject to Redevelopment Plans by private enterprise. (E) The City confirms its election of the method of tax increment computation set forth in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, subdivision 3, clause (a) with respect to each of the Districts. • -2- 1, .
