Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for May 18, 2009 Page 3 of 9 other projects, the Highway 61 & 147th Street Intersection Improvement Project. This project involves street, drainage and traffic control improvements. Total costs are estimated at $3,393,518.00, with $1,020,600.00 coming from MnDot. This leaves a balance of $2,372,918.00 to be financed from the City's state aid construction account. Since these improvements are being made within the geographical boundaries of the downtown Tax Increment District (TIF District No. 1-2) the City can recapture its state aid construction funds from future tax increments when they materialize. It is important to note that the City waives any future ability to recapture these funds from tax increment revenues unless an enabling resolution is passed prior to the start of the project. Adoption of the Consent Agenda approved RESOLUTION 2009-14 APPROVING THE TERMS OF INTERNAL LOAN IN CONNECTION WITH TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT NO. 1-2. All Ayes. Motion carried.
