This letter is being submitted on behalf of the concerned citizens residing on
block 2 of The Nelson Hills Farm sub-division, fifth edition, (Everest Path). The people
in our neighborhood have a growing concern for the safety and well-being of their
children. The problem is people excessively speeding on Everest Path. It is our belief
as a neighborhood that if some measures are not taken soon someone will end up
hurt. The street itself is rather wide and has long stretches without any stop signs. It is
our belief that most people end up speeding unconsciously. The fact remails that if
people are driving in excess of 40 mph and up on residential streets people are bound
to get hurt. As concerned citizens living in a newer neighborhood we feel it is our job
to bring this danger to a halt. One other issue to consider is that there is a woman in
this neighborhood who is permanently in a wheelchair. People such as her deserve
the common 'courtesy of using the streets just like anyone else. It seems some people
are taking this freedom away from not only her but from our kids as well. Below is a list
of people who could not come to the meeting but are concerned and are hoping some
measures can be taken to stop this before someone gets hurt or even worse killed.

9. AWARD OF CONTRACT
10. PETITIONS, REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
a) Adopt Ordinance - Interim Use Zoning Code Amendment
JDS Properties has made application for an interim use within the B-4
(Neighborhood Business) zoning district. The process of the Interim Use permit
requires a text amendment be approved by the City Council for that particular
zoning district. Once the text amendment is approved, other applications can be
made for the same use within other B-4 zoned properties. The text amendment
requested is for "Automobile Repair: Minor" within the B-4 zoning district. The
subject property is 821 Third Street. At the May 17, 1999 Council Meeting,
Council suggested placing a "sunset" date on any text amendment to coincide
with the period of time approved for the Interim Use. In this case, the Planning
Commission approved the Interim Use for Airlake Ford to 3 years.
Mr. Don Hunter, 613 Heritage Way, owner of the building located at 821 Third
Street, stated he would like a 5-year term for the interim use. Staff replied the
Planning Commission sets the terms for the interim use permits. Originally, staff
did recommend a 5-year term for the interim use, however, the Planning
Commission was uncomfortable with 5 years and therefore, agreed to 3 years.
Mr. Hunter can appeal the decision at a future Council Meeting.
MOTION by Soderberg, second by Strachan to adopt ORDINANCE 099-432
amending the B-4 (Neighborhood Business) district adding "Automobile Repair:
Minor" as an Interim use. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
b) Adopt Resolution - Approval of Final Plat Cameron Woods Subdivision
Cameron Woods consists of an 84-unit senior cooperative housing facility. The
final plat was recently approved by the Planning Commission on May 25, 1999
contingent on engineering requirements and the resolution of the connection of
Euclid Street on the north and south in the Development Contract. The proposed
development consists of two, 3-story, 42-unit buildings on 13.7 acres. MOTION
by Cordes, second by Soderberg adopting RESOLUTION R58-99 approving the
Council Minutes (Regular)
June 7, 1999
Page 3
Cameron Woods Final Plat/Final PUD Plan contingent upon the above
requirements. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
c) Adopt Ordinance - Amend Existing Wetland Ordinance
The City Council authorized retaining the firm of Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik &
Associates to assist the City in the preparation of an update to the City's Wetland
Ordinance as well as completing a field inventory and classification of all existing
wetlands. The primary motivations in updating the ordinance were the need to
update the setback and buffer yard requirements for areas adjacent to wetlands
and the need to classify existing wetlands by floral diversity and storm water
susceptibility. The previous ordinance treated all wetlands the same regardless of
these factors. Ms. Sherri Buss ofBRAA gave a brief overview of the proposed
ordinance amendments. All amendments pertain to future developments.
MOTION by Strachan, second by Verch to adopt ORDINANCE 099-433
amending the existing wetland ordinance. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
d) 1998 Annual Financial Report - Presentation
The independent audit of the December 31, 1998 financial records was completed
on March 31, 1999. In 1998, actual General Fund revenues exceeded budgeted
revenues by $38,733 and actual expenditures were $8,772 more than budgeted.
The difference in budgeted to actual expenditures is due to an accounting
adjustment of$12,673 for compensated absences in the General Fund in response
to a management suggestion made by the auditors after the 1997 audit. The
Water Utility, Sewer Operations, Solid Waste and Liquor and Arena Funds all
showed increases to their 1998 retained earnings.
11. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
a) State Building Code Chapter 1306 - Review and Disposition
The issue deals with the optional building code provision that was adopted by the
City Council in 1996 dealing with fire protection (sprinkler) systems. It was the
consensus at the May 11, 1999 workshop that the Council had three options
relative to this previously adopted optional building code provision which
requires the installation of sprinkler systems in certain new, expanded, or
remodeled commercial buildings containing 2000 square feet or more. These
options include 1) retaining the current requirements; 2) repealing the current
requirements entirely; 3) adopting 8a of Chapter 1306 which triggers the need for
sprinkler systems at 5000 square feet rather than the current 2000 square feet.
Option 1 - Retaining Chapter 1306 - The City has received a letter from the
Minnesota Fire Chiefs Association that Chapter 1306 is proposed to be re-written
to allow more flexibility and choices at the local level as to the level of built-in
fire protection needed in individual communities.
Option 2 - Repealing Chapter 1306 - This option would result in the City
enforcing the more standard building code and fire code provisions as they pertain
to commercial new construction as well as additions and remodeling.
Council Minutes (Regular)
June 7, 1999
Page 4
Option 3 - Adopting Chapter 1306 8a - This option represents a compromise
between Options 1 and 2 in that it does not repeal this requirement altogether, but
raises the threshold to 5000 square feet before it would be triggered.
Mr. Scott Wollmering, 14030 Delta Avenue, Rosemount, co-owner ofLiI Rascals
Daycare Center, asked if option 8a eliminates child care centers. Staff replied no
because the code is based on occupant load. Mr. Wollmering stated the daycare
center has expanded to make more room for the children already there, not to add
more children. This code makes it physically and financially difficult to expand.
Mr. Phil Carison, 17482 Eventide, representing Farmington Mall and Lil Rascals
Daycare Center, felt there is another issue to look at. He stated Council needs to
look at if the footprint is being expanded or if there is remodeling within the
building, which is what Lil Rascals has done.
Mr. Dave Adelman, owner of Farmington Mall, stated he would like to see 1306
repealed. They currently have 2 spaces that are not rentable. Even option 8a
would not make the spaces rentable.
MOTION by Strachan, second by Verch to adopt Chapter 1306 8a. MOTION
by Soderberg suggesting to amend the previous motion by adding that this
ordinance should be reviewed in one year. Councilmembers Strachan and Verch
accepted this as a friendly amendment and added to the previous motion.
MOTION by Cordes, second by Ristow to amend the original motion by
substituting the repeal of 1306 instead of amending 1306 8a option. Voting for:
Ristow, Cordes, Soderberg. Voting against: Strachan, Verch. MOTION by
Cordes, second by Ristow adopting the motion as amended, ORDINANCE 099-
434, repealing Chapter 1306. Voting for: Ristow, Cordes, Soderberg. Voting
against: Strachan, Verch.
b) Authorize Public Facilities Task Force
Council directed staff to pursue the creation of a City Task Force to study and
formulate recommendations to the City Council on the need for new public
facilities. The composition of the task force was discussed. The Mayor felt that
more than one citizen should be appointed and Council suggested 5
representatives between the citizens and business representatives. Council also
suggested a student in addition to the school board representative. The
composition was agreed on as follows:
Citizen-at-Iarge and Business Representative (5)
Council (1)
City Commissions (HRA - 1, Planning - 1, Parks and Recreation - 1)
School District Board or Staff Representative (1) and (1) student
City Administrator (1)

MOTION by Soderberg, second by Cordes authorizing the creation of the Task
Force, approving the composition of the Task Force, approving the scope of the
Task Force, and approving the Task Force objectives. APIF, MOTION
CARRIED.
12. NEW BUSINESS
a) Review Comments - Southern Dakota County Cities and Townships
Comprehensive Plan Update
The City recently received a final draft of the composite comprehensive plan
update for 18 townships and cities in southern Dakota County. The areas of
greatest concern include the three townships of Castle Rock, Empire and Eureka.
The primary change for Castle Rock is the issue that was addressed by the City
Council last year. This change involved the expansion of the commercial land use
designation from TH3 and Fountain Valley Golf Course approximately 1/4 mile
further south. This has resulted in the development of the Castle Rock Industrial
Park. There are virtually no changes proposed for Eureka Township and the
entire township is proposed to remain designated as Agriculture with a permitted
density of 1 unit per 40 acres. Empire Township identifies an additional area of
approximately 300 acres designated as "Sewered Area." Empire Township has
scheduled a public hearing on their more detailed Comprehensive Plan update for
June 15, 1999. Staffwill bring this information to the City Council once it is
received.
13. COUNCIL ROUNDTABLE
a) TH3 MediaD Issues - Update
At the May 3, 1999 City Council meeting, the issue of motorists driving over the
easterly median from the easterly frontage road north of Budget Mart to access
Trunk Highway 3 was brought to staff for review. Representatives from MnDOT
have indicated that,. as a temporary measure, they are willing to install additional
posts along the median to help prevent motorists from driving over the median.
MnDOT has indicated a willingness to explore more permanent solutions to this
problem.

FROM: Paul Asher, Liquor Operations Manager
SUBJECT: Capital Outlay Purchase - Liquor Operations
DATE: June 21,1999
INTRODUCTION
The 1999 Liquor Operation's Budget provides for an upgrade of the operation's "point of sale"
computer hardware, and software.
DISCUSSION
The City Administrator and I have discussed the different possible computer systems that would
be applicable to our operation, and the different vendors. Our present computer system is over 5
years old, and the four computers are not Y2K compliant. In review of customer service needs,
staff will also be adding a second computerized cash register lane to the Pilot Knob Store. The
City received two bids for the upgrade, and it was decided to go with the lowest proposal. A
thorough review of the proposal was completed.
The proposal also includes cash register auxiliary equipment, installation, training, and
hardware/software support for one year.
BUDGET IMP ACT
The quoted price of$18,200 is within the 1999 Liquor Operation's Capital Outlay Budget.

SUBJECT: Prairie Waterway Phase II Project Closeout
DATE: June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
The Southeast Area Storm Sewer - Prairie Waterway Phase II project is ready to be
closed out.
DISCUSSION
The Southeast Area Storm Sewer - Prairie Waterway Phase II project was constructed
and substantially completed in the fall of 1996. In the spring of 1997, as staff was
preparing the final payment voucher for the project, staff determined that based on the
final quantity measurements for the project, the contractor for the project had been
previously overpaid for excavation work.
Negotiations with the contractor regarding this issue have been completed. Attached is
the final pay voucher for the project. Included is the change order showing a deduct in
earthwork quantities and a credit to the City in the amount of $60,526.72. The City had
been retaining $20,526.72 and therefore, the net reimbursement, as shown on the first
page of the final pay voucher, is $40,000. The City has received a check from the
Contractor in that amount.
BUDGET IMPACT
The Southeast Area Storm Sewer Fund showed a deficit balance as of December 31,
1998, of $82,401. After application of the project retainage and the Contractor's
payment, a deficit of $21,874 remains. A transfer from the Storm Water Trunk fund to
the project fund in this amount would eliminate the project deficit.
As the Prairie Waterway is a Trunk Storm Water facility, use of these funds to eliminate
the project deficit balance is appropriate. Elimination of this deficit fund balance also
fulfills one of the management suggestions made by the City's auditors in their 1998
Management Letter.
ACTION REOUESTED
1. Acknowledge closeout of the Southeast Area Storm Sewer - Prairie Waterway Phase
II project.
2. Authorize a fund transfer in the amount of$21,874 from the Storm Water Trunk Fund
to eliminate the project deficit.
Respectfully submitted,

SUBJECT: Approve Joint Powers Agreement - Fit Testing Equipment Contribution
DATE: June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
At the December 7, 1998 Council meeting, Council approved a Joint Powers Agreement with the
City of Apple Valley to allow the Farmington Fire Department to jointly utilize Apple Valley's
fit testing respirator equipment. This use of this equipment is mandated under Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements to "fit test" firefighters with the same
make, model, style and size of respirator that will be used during fire department operations. The
joint utilization of this equipment is highly desirable, as it will significantly reduce the City's
costs associated with the singular purchase of this testing equipment to meet federal safety
requirements.
DISCUSSION
Discussions with the Apple Valley City Administrator since that time has resulted in the need to
amend the existing joint powers agreement currently in place between Apple Valley, Eagan and
Rosemount. In addition, Farmington, as a new participant in the existing joint powers agreement,
will need to financially contribute for its use of the fit testing equipment as an equal municipal
member.
The City Attorney's Office has drafted the attached Amendment to Agreement to Acquire TSI
Portacount which has been tentatively approved by the Apple Valley City Attorney. Fire Chief
Kuchera and this office has also reviewed the agreement.
BUDGET IMPACT
The City's financial contribution of $2,215.04 is equal to the other cities in the agreement and
will be used to underwrite the original purchase of the TSI Portacount and for the establishment
of a fund to maintain the equipment. Funding for the Fire Department's contribution to the TSI
Portacount was not included in the 1999 Budget as the OSHA requirements were either not
known or recognized by the Fire Department during the 1999 Budget process.
Funding is available for the City's contribution due to off-setting expenditure reductions in other
areas of the Fire Department budget and will be formally submitted to Council as a 1999 Budget
Reappropriation in November of this year.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the attached Amendment to Agreement to Acquire a TSI Portacount to fulfill OSHA
requirements associated with fit testing of respirators.
Respectfully Submitted,

Cc: Andrea Poehler, Assistant City Attorney, Campbell Knutson P.A.

remain in full force and effect.
3. The Agreement is amended to include the City of Farmington as a party
to the Agreement and the term "Cities" as referred to in the Agreement is amended to

4. Paragraph 4 of the Agreement is amended to provide:
FINANCIAL RESPONSffiILITY. Apple Valley, Eagan,
Farmington, and Rosemount have all made equal contributions in the amount of

the purchase of the TSI Portacount and for the establishment of a fund for
maintenance and any necessary replacements of the TSI Portacount. Unless
otherwise agreed by the Cities or unless Apple Valley withdraws from this

SUBJECT: Consultant Contract - RLK Kuusisto Ltd. - Comprehensive Plan Update
DATE: June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
With the completion of the proposed Comprehensive Plan Update, the City has also
completed its contract for services with RLK Kuusisto for the portion of the project in
which they were involved. In addition to the original scope of services included in the
original with RLK, additional services, at the request of the City, were provided by RLK
during the process. The following is a summary of the additional services and the cost
associated with these services.
DISCUSSION
The original contract for services with RLK called for a total fee of $19,800. After the
approval of this contract, there were additional services requested from RLK. These
included their participation in the neighborhood meetings, participation in discussions
and meetings on the Orderly Annexation Agreement with Empire Township, and time
spent re-calculating existing land use inventory numbers. The original proposal with
RLK did not envision these types of activities as the scope of services was dependent on
changing City needs and circumstances.
The City and RLK has agreed to an additional fee amount of $2,000 for these additional
services. While RLK's normal hourly billing rates would have resulted in fees in excess
of this amount, RLK has agreed to the additional fee amount of $2,000. This would
increase the total contract amount to $21,800.
BUDGET IMP ACT
The City recently received notice that it will be receiving approximately $4,950 in 1993
Small Cities Block Grant Program Income. It is recommended that the additional
contract amount be funded from these proceeds.
ACTION REOUESTED
Approval of an amendment to the original contract with RLK Kuusisto to increase the
total final contract amount to $21,800 subject to a written acceptance and waiver of this
contract amendment from RLK.
Respectfully submitted,
~~~

Audio Visual Consultant Proposal
DATE:
June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
Proposals have been received from AudioNisual Consultants.
DISCUSSION
On April 19, 1999, the City Council authorized staff to seek a consultant to design an
audio visual system for the broadcasting of City Council meetings from the City Council
Chambers. A Request for Proposal (RFP) was prepared and sent to six bidders. Two
proposals were submitted in response to the RFP.
lP.L. & Associates
$10,000
$12,000
Erickson, Ellison & Associates, Inc.
Both proposals indicated the project could be completed by November or December of
this year. Given the variables on the project which include site work that needs to be
done such as building walls and adding electricity, availability and delivery time for
equipment ordered, and availability of installers, the project schedule will most likely be
extended to November or early December, 1999.
BUDGET IMPACT
The costs associated with the consultant phase of this project are eligible expenditures of
the $60,000 grant received as a result of the Cable Franchise Agreement.
ACTION REQUIRED
Approve the appointment of the lowest bidder, J.P.L. & Associates as Audio Visual
Consultant for the design of an audio visual system as required for cable broadcasting.

2. Personnel and Project Staffing
. I will be fully responsible for this project. I have worked in the field of
Broadcast & Cable Television since 1979. From 1985 to 1997 I

Coordinator. During that time I planned and coordinated the purchase
and installation of a wide variety of telecommunications installations
which included a five camera School Board room as well as assisting in
the planning, purchasing, and coordination of installation of five
secondary TV studios and transmission centers, the wiring of 18
elementary buildings for cable TV and data, and two-way interactive
classrooms at each high school. While in Rochester I also was
involved, as chair of the Mayor's Cable TV Advisory Committee, in the
planning of the A/V - TV -Presentation system installation for the
Olmsted County/City of Rochester Community Room.
I started this consulting business in 1995 and was hired by the
Minnetonka Public Schools to assist in the planning, bid specification
preparation, and equipment installation coordination for a new School
Board/Community Room in a newly constructed School District
Central Office Building. I was hired in July of 1998 and I am in the
final stages of a project as a consultant for ISD #194 Lakeville Public
Schools on a new school board room A/V-TV-Presentation system.
Jeff is the Cable Coordinator for the City ofLakeville. He and his wife
of 9 years and their two children are residents ofLakeville.
. I utilize the talents of an experienced CAD (Computer Assisted

SUBJECT: Amendments for TIF Districts No(s). 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
DATE: June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
This public hearing is to consider amending Tax Increment Districts (TIF) Districts
No.(s) 4,5,6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 to add up to one additional year of captured tax increment in
each of these existing TIF districts.
DISCUSSION
The proposed amendments to the above listed TIF Districts would add one additional
year to the maximum number of years for which tax increment can be captured by the
City. The change will allow for nine (9) years of captured increment rather than the
presently approved eight (8) years.
This recommended change will allow either the HRA or the developer, depending on the
terms of the Development Contract, to receive reimbursement in an amount closer to the
original amount estimated in the TIF Plan Budget for each district. The financial
justification for these proposed amendments was presented to the HRA Board in March
and a copy is attached.
The actual amounts of captured tax increment have been reduced as a result of reduction
of property tax class rates for commercial and industrial properties approved by the State
Legislature in the last three legislative sessions.
The HRA Board conducted a public hearing on these proposed amendments on May 10,
1999 and adopted the attached resolution requesting that the City Council also act to
approve the proposed amendments.
BUDGET IMPACT
The budget impact of these proposed changes is addressed in the financial analysis
included with the February 8, 1999 memo to the HRA Board.
ACTION REQUESTED
Adopt the attached resolution approving the proposed amendments to nF Districts No.(s)
4,5,6,7,8, 9,10,11.

THE HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
OF THE CITY OF FARMINGTON, MINNESOTA
1999 AMENDMENT TO TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN
for
HRA ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT NO.4
(Austin Products)
Approved and Adopted by HRA: May 10, 1999
Approved and Adopted by City: June 21, 1999
1999 Amendment to Tax Increment Financing Plan
for
HRA Economic Development District No.4
(Austin Products)
I. Background
A. Formation of District. Pursuant to the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Sections
469.174-469.179 (the "Act"), HRA Economic Development District No.4 (the "TIF District")
was duly created and the original Tax Increment Financing Plan (the "Original TIF Plan") for the
TIF District was duly approved by resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Housing and
Redevelopment Authority (the "HRA"), adopted January 5, 1994, and resolution of the City
Council of the City of Farmington, Minnesota (the "City"), adopted January 18, 1994. The
original tax capacity ofthe TIF District was certified by the County Auditor on August 16, 1994.
B. Development Activities. The development activities described in the Original TIF
Plan have been completed and the HRA has incurred costs not less than the amount of project
cost estimates included in the Original TIF Plan.
II. Amendment
A. Duration of TIF District. The Original TIF Plan, in Section M, stated that the TIF
District would exist for eight (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax increment payment
or ten (10) years from approval of the tax increment financing plan, whichever is earlier, or, if
the public costs are repaid within a shorter period, the TIF District would be dissolved as of the
date of repayment of such costs. Pursuant to this 1999 Amendment, Section M would be
amended to read as follows:
"The tax increment financing district is an economic development district. The
district shall exist for nine (9) years from the date of the receipt of the first tax increment
payment or eleven (11) years from approval of the tax increment financing plan, whichever is
earlier or, if the public costs are repaid within a shorter period, the district shall be dissolved as of
the date of repayment of such costs."
B. Reasons for Change. It was the intention of the HRA and City to provide a
maximum duration for the TIF District equal to the maximum duration provided under the Act.
F or districts certified prior to May 31, 1993, the maximum duration allowed under the Act was
the lesser of (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax increment payment or ten (10) years
from approval of the tax increment financing plan. Effective for districts certified after May 31,
1993, the maximum duration was changed to the lesser of nine (9) years from the date of the
receipt of the first tax increment payment or eleven (11) years from approval of the tax increment
financing plan. See Section 469.176, subd. Ib(4) of the Act. The drafter of the Original TIF Plan
mistakenly used the pre-May, 1993 maximum durationallimits in the Original TIF Plan, rather
than the maximum durationallimits permitted by the Act as of the date of certification of the TIF
District. The amendment will correct this mistake.
As noted in the following section, correction of the mistake will permit the HRA to
receive a distribution of tax increment in 2004 in the estimated amount of$II,249. Because of
recent changes in tax class rates, and because the tax capacity value of the improvements
constructed in the TIF District was less than originally estimated, estimated increments
receivable by the HRA through 2003 (the year of expiration of the TIF District if the duration
mistake is not corrected) total approximately $86,299, compared with the original projected
amount receivable of$104,640. By correction of the duration mistake, the aggregate increments
estimated to be receivable by the HRA increases to approximately $97,548, still less than the
original projected amount and still less than the project costs incurred by the HRA in accordance
with the Original TIF Plan. Hence, correction of the mistake will mitigate, but will not fully cure,
the tax increment shortfall likely to be experienced by the TIF District.
C. Increments To Be Received; Impact on Taxing Districts
The HRA is presently receiving tax increment payments from the TIF District of
approximately $11,249 per year. Adoption of the amendment will permit the HRA to receive an
additional payment of approximately $11,249 in the year 2004. If the amendment were not
adopted the TIF District would terminate in 2003 and, in 2004, the taxes otherwise receivable as
tax increment would be distributed to the taxing districts (approximately 22% to the City, 45% to
the school district, 17% to the County and 16% to fiscal disparity). However, as previously
noted, adoption of the amendment will not extend the duration of the TIF District beyond the
limitation set forth in the Act and is necessary to correctly evidence the original intentions of the
HRA and City and mitigate the tax increment shortfall likely to be experienced by the TIF
District.
D. Other Changes.
Other than as set forth above, no other changes are made to the TIF Plan.

B. Reasons for Change in Duration. It was the intention of the HRA and City to
provide a maximum duration for the TIF District equal to the maximum duration provided under
the Act. For districts certified prior to May 31, 1993, the maximum duration allowed under the
Act was the lesser of (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax increment payment or ten
(10) years from approval of the tax increment financing plan. Effective for districts certified after
May 31, 1993, the maximum duration was changed to the lesser of nine (9) years from the date
ofthe receipt of the first tax increment payment or eleven (11) years from approval of the tax
increment financing plan. See Section 469.176, subd. 1 b( 4) of the Act. The drafter of the
Original TIF Plan mistakenly used the pre-May, 1993 maximum durationallimits in the Original
TIF Plan, rather than the maximum durationallimits permitted by the Act as of the date of
certification of the TIF District. The amendment will correct this mistake.
As noted in the following section, correction of the mistake will permit the HRA to
receive a distribution oftax increment in 2004 in the estimated amount of$25,804. Because of
recent changes in tax class rates, and because the tax capacity value of the improvements
constructed in the TIF District was less than originally estimated, estimated increments
receivable by the HRA through 2003 (the year of expiration ofthe TIF District ifthe duration
mistake is not corrected) total approximately $223,170, compared with the original projected
amount receivable of$423,936. By correction of the duration mistake, the aggregate increments
estimated to be receivable by the HRA increases to approximately $248,974, still less than the
original projected amount and still less than the project costs incurred by the HRA and the
Developer in accordance with the Original TIF Plan. Hence, correction of the mistake will
mitigate, but will not fully cure, the tax increment shortfall likely to be experienced by the TIF
District.
C. Increments To Be Received; Impact on Taxing Districts
The HRA is presently receiving tax increment payments from the TIF District of
approximately $25,~03 per year. Adoption of the amendment will permit the HRA to receive an
additional payment of$25,803 in the year 2004. If the amendment extending the duration were
not adopted, the TIF District would terminate in the year 2003 and, in 2004, the taxes otherwise
receivable as tax increment would be distributed to the taxing districts (approximately 22% to the
City, 45% to the school district, 17% to the County and 16% to fiscal disparity). However, as
previously noted, adoption of the amendment will not extend the duration of the TIF District
beyond the limitation set forth in the Act and is necessary to correctly evidence the original
intentions of the HRA and City and mitigate the tax increment shortfall likely to be experienced
by the TIF District.
D. Other Changes.
Other than as set forth above, no other changes are made to the TIF Plan.

1999 AMENDMENT TO TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN
for
HRA ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT NO.6
(nT Powder Coating Inc.)
Approved and Adopted by HRA: May 10, 1999
Approved and Adopted by City: June 21, 1999
1999 Amendment to Tax Increment Financing Plan
for
HRA Economic Development District No.6
(JIT Powder Coating Inc.)
I. Background
A. Formation of District. Pursuant to the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Sections
469.174-469.179 (the "Act"), HRA Economic Development District No.6 (the "TIF District")
was duly created and the original Tax Increment Financing Plan (the "Original TIF Plan") for the
TIF District was duly approved by resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Housing and
Redevelopment Authority (the "HRA"), adopted July 5, 1994, and resolution of the City Council
ofthe City of Farmington, Minnesota (the "City"), adopted July 18, 1994. The original tax
capacity of the TIF District was certified by the County Auditor on June 6, 1996.
B. Development Activities. The development activities described in the Original TIF
Plan have been completed and the HRA and the Developer have incurred costs not less than the
amount of project cost estimates included in the Original TIF Plan.
II. Amendments.
A. Duration ofTIF District. The Original TIF Plan, in Section N, stated that the TIF
District would exist for eight (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax increment payment
or ten (10) years from approval of the tax increment financing plan, whichever is earlier, or, if
the public costs are repaid within a shorter period, the TIF District would be dissolved as of the
date of repayment of such costs. Pursuant to this 1999 Amendment, Section N would be
amended to read as follows:
"The tax increment financing district is an economic development district. The
district shall exist for nine (9) years from the date of the receipt of the first tax increment
payment or eleven (11) years from approval of the tax increment financing plan, whichever is
earlier or, if the public costs are repaid within a shorter period, the district shall be dissolved as of
the date of repayment of such costs."
B. Reasons for Change in Duration. It was the intention of the HRA and City to
provide a maximum duration for the TIF District equal to the maximum duration provided under
the Act. For districts certified prior to May 31, 1993, the maximum duration allowed under the
Act was the lesser of (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax increment payment or ten
(10) years from approval of the tax increment financing plan. Effective for districts certified after
May 31, 1993, the maximum duration was changed to the lesser of nine (9) years from the date
of the receipt of the first tax increment payment or eleven (11) years from approval of the tax
increment financing plan. See Section 469.176, subd. Ib(4) of the Act. The drafter of the
Original nF Plan mistakenly used the pre-May, 1993 maximum durationallimits in the Original
TIF Plan, rather than the maximum durationallimits permitted by the Act as of the date of
certification of the nF District. The amendment will correct this mistake.
As noted in the following section, correction of the mistake will permit the HRA to
receive a distribution of tax increment in 2004 and 2005 in an aggregate amount up to $60,400.
Because of recent changes in tax class rates, and because the tax capacity value of the
improvements constructed in the TIF District was less than originally estimated, estimated
increments receivable by the HRA through 2003 (the year of expiration of the nF District if the
duration mistake is not corrected) total approximately $221,986, compared with the original
projected amount receivable of$419,696. By correction of the duration mistake, the aggregate
increments estimated to be receivable by the HRA increases to an estimated maximum of
approximately $282,386, still less than the original projected amount and still less than the
project costs incurred by the HRA and the Developer in accordance with the Original nF Plan.
Hence, correction of the mistake will mitigate, but will not fully cure, the tax increment shortfall
likely to be experienced by the nF District.
C. Increments To Be Received; Impact on Taxing Districts
The HRA is presently receiving tax increment payments from the TIF District of
approximately $30,200 per year. Adoption ofthe amendment will permit the HRA to receive
additional payments of approximately $30,200 in each of the years 2004 and 2005. If the
amendment were not adopted, the TIF District would terminate in 2003, and, in 2004 and 2005,
the taxes otherwise receivable as tax increment would be distributed to the taxing districts
(approximately 22% to the City, 45% to the school district, 17% to the County and 16% to fiscal
disparity). However, as previously noted, adoption of the amendment will not extend the
duration of the TIF District beyond the limitation set forth in the Act and is necessary to correctly
evidence the original intentions of the HRA and City and mitigate the tax increment shortfall
likely to be experienced by the TIF District.

As noted in the following section, correction of the mistake will permit the HRA to
receive a distribution of tax increment in 2004 and 2005 in a maximum aggregate estimated
amount of $27,270. Because of recent changes in tax class rates, and because the tax capacity
value of the improvements constructed in the TIF District was less than originally estimated,
estimated increments receivable by the HRA through 2003 (the year of expiration of the TIF
District if the duration mistake is not corrected) total approximately $100,615, compared with the
original projected amount receivable of$189,360. By correction ofthe duration mistake, the
aggregate increments estimated to be receivable by the HRA increases to a maximum of
approximately $127,885, still less than the original projected amount and still less than the
project costs incurred by the HRA in accordance with the Original TIF Plan. Hence, correction of
the mistake will mitigate, but will not fully cure, the tax increment shortfall likely to be
experienced by the TIF District.
C. Increments To Be Received; Impact on Taxing Districts
The HRA is presently receiving tax increment payments from the TIF District of

increments receivable by the HRA through 2005 (the year of expiration of the TIF District if the
duration mistake is not corrected) total approximately $82,988, compared with the original
projected amount receivable of$142,784. By correction of the duration mistake, the aggregate
increments estimated to be receivable by the HRA increases to a maximum of approximately
$93,253, still less than the original projected amount and still less than the project costs incurred
by the HRA and the Developer in accordance with the Original TIF Plan. Hence, correction of

For districts certified prior to May 31, 1993, the maximum duration allowed under the Act was
the lesser of (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax increment payment or ten (10) years
from approval of the tax increment financing plan. Effective for districts certified after May 31,
1993, the maximum duration was changed to the lesser of nine (9) years from the date of the
receipt ofthe first tax increment payment or eleven (11) years from approval of the tax increment
financing plan. See Section 469.176, subd. 1 b( 4) of the Act. The drafter of the Original TIF Plan
mistakenly used the pre-May, 1993 maximum durationallimits in the Original TIF Plan, rather
than the maximum durationallimits permitted by the Act as of the date of certification of the TIF
District. The amendment will correct this mistake.
As noted in the following section, correction of the mistake will permit the HRA to
receive a distribution of tax increment in 2006 in the estimated amount of $91,185. Because of
recent changes in tax class rates, and because the tax capacity value of the improvements
constructed in the TIF District was less than originally estimated, estimated increments
receivable by the HRA through 2005 (the year of expiration of the TIF District if the duration
mistake is not corrected) total approximately $704,846, compared with the original projected
amount receivable of$793,712. By correction ofthe duration mistake, the aggregate increments
estimated to be receivable by the HRA increases to approximately $796,031, approximately
equal to the original projected amount but still less than the project costs incurred by the HRA
and the Developer in accordance with the Original TIF Plan. Hence, correction of the mistake
will mitigate, but will not fully cure, the tax increment shortfall likely to be experienced by the
TIF District.
C. Increments To Be Received; Impact on Taxing Districts
The HRA is presently receiving tax increment payments from the TIF District of
approximately $91,185 per year. Adoption of the amendment will permit the HRA to receive an
additional payment of approximately $91,185 in the year 2006. If the amendment were not
adopted the TIF District would terminate in 2005 and, in 2006, the taxes otherwise receivable as
tax increment would be distributed to the taxing districts (approximately 22% to the City, 45% to
the school district, 17% to the County and 16% to fiscal disparity). However, as previously
noted, adoption of the amendment will not extend the duration of the TIF District beyond the
limitation set forth in the Act and is necessary to correctly evidence the original intentions of the
HRA and City.
D. Other Changes.
Other than as set forth above, no other changes are made to the TIF Plan.

DATE: May 10, 1999
INTRODUCTION
The Board authorized the retention of the law firm of Dorsey Whitney to prepare the
necessary documents to amend the TIF Plans for the above Districts at the March 8, 1999
Board meeting.
DISCUSSION
The financial justification for amending the TIF Districts No.4, 5,6,7,8,9,10, and 11 was
presented at the March meeting and a copy of which is attached. The proposed
amendment simply adds one additional year to the maximum number of years for which
tax increment can be captured by the City. The change will allow for nine (9) years of
captured increment rather than the presently allowed eight (8) years.
This recommended change will allow either the HRA or the developer, depending on the
terms of the Development Contract, to receive reimbursement in an amount closer to the
original amount estimated in the TIF Plan Budget. The actual amounts of captured tax
increment have been reduced as a result of reduction of property tax class rates for
commercial and industrial property approved by the State Legislature in the last two
years.
The HRA Board should make a recommendation to City Council which will consider
these proposed amendments at a public hearing scheduled for June 21, 1999.
ACTION REOUESTED
Adopt the attached resolution recommending to the City Council approval of the
proposed amendments to Tax Increment Financing Plans for Tax Increment Financing
Districts No. 4,5,6,7,8,9,10, and 11.

FINANCING DISTRICTS NO.4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 AND 11
BE IT RESO.L VED by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of
Farmington, Minnesota (the "Authority") as follows:
1. Background. The Authority has heretofore prepared and approved Tax Increment
Financing Plans (the "Original TIF Plans") for Tax Increment Financing Districts No.4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9, 10 and 11 in the City of Farmington (the ''TIF Districts"), all pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Section 469.174-469.179 (the "Act"). Each of the Original TIF Plans stated that the
applicable TIF District would exist for eight (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax
increment payment or ten (10) years from approval of the tax increment financing plan,
whichever is earlier, or, if the public costs are repaid within a shorter period, the TIF District
would be dissolved as of the date of repayment of such costs. It was the intention of the HRA and
City to provide a maximum duration for each of the TIF Districts equal to the maximum duration
provided under the Act. For districts certified prior to May 31, 1993, the maximum duration
allowed under the Act was the lesser of (8) years from the date of receipt of the first tax
increment payment or ten (10) years from approval of the tax increment financing plan. Effective
for districts certified after May 31,1993, the maximum duration was changed to the lesser of
nine (9) years from the date of the receipt of the first tax increment payment or eleven (11) years
from approval of the tax increment financing plan. Investigation by the Authority has determined
that the drafter of each of the Original TIF Plans mistakenly used the pre-May, 1993 maximum
durationallimits in the Original TIF Plans, rather than the maximum durationallimits permitted
by the Act as of the date of certification of each of the TlF Districts.
2. Proposed Amendments to Original TIF Plans. The Authority has reviewed a draft of
amendments to the Original TIF Plans which, in each case, would extend the durationallimit of
the respective TIF Districts to the maximum permitted under the Act as of the date of
certification of the TIF Districts. Said amendments will correct the drafting mistake made at the
time the Original TIF Plans were prepared.
3. Approval. The Authority hereby approves and adopts the proposed amendments to the
Original TIP Plans and, except as to duration of the TIF Districts, confirms the findings made at
the time of approval of the Original TIP Plans.
4. Transmittal. The Authority does hereby transmit the amendments to the Original TIP
Plans to the Farmington City Council for approval after the same has been considered by the City
-2-
Council subsequent to a public hearing to be held in accordance with Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 469.
The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was seconded by
Commissioner and up"", voting being taken thereon, the following voted in
favor thereof:

and the following voted against the same:
whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted.

SUBJECT: Proposed TIF Plan Amendments of Existing TIF Districts
DATE: March 8,1999
INTRODUCTION
This issue was discussed by the Board at their February 8, 1999 meeting and a copy of
the memo that provided background on this issue is attached.
DISCUSSION
It was the consensus of the Board to instruct staff to prepare detailed tax increment
revenue projections for existing TIF Districts to determine whether additional captured
increment is required to meet the original budget projections contained in the TIF Plan.
The following is a summary of each of the Economic Development TIF Districts created
since 1994 that would be eligible for amending to provide for nine (9) years of captured
increment rather than the eight (8) years of captured increment identified in the original
TIF Plans
Economic Development TIF District No.4 - Austin Products
This TIF District was created in 1994. The amount of captured tax increment that was
estimated to be captured in this district was $13,080 a year for 8 years for a total of
$104,640. The actual amount of captured increment has averaged between $10-$11,000 a
year over the first 4 years of the district and is projected to amount to $86,300 over 8
years.
This project involved HRA selling the land for $1.00. The additional year of captured
increment will result in the HRA being reimbursed approximately $97,548 rather than the
current projected amount of $86,300. This would be considerably closer to the original
budgeted reimbursement of $1 04,640.
Based on these projections, staff recommends amendment of the TIF Plan for Economic
Development District No.4 to extend its duration to 9 years of captured increment.
Economic Development TIF District No.5 - Performance Industrial Coatines (PIC)
This TIF District was also created in 1994. The amount of captured increment that was
estimated to be captured in this district was $52,992 a year for 8 years for a total of
$423,936. The actual amount of captured increment has averaged approximately $30,000
a year for the first 4 years of the district and is projected to total $223,170 over 8 years.
This project involved the HRA selling the land for the actual improved cost of $82,600.
Seventy percent of the captured increment is being reimbursed to the developer to
reimburse him the land cost and an estimated $123,550 in site improvements. The
additional year of captured increment will result in the developer being reimbursed
approximately $174,282 rather than the current projected amount of $156,219, which is
$122,000 less than projected in 1994"
In addition, the developer has indicated a planned 15,000-20,000 square foot expansion
of their present facility. While this expansion will involve the purchase of the adjacent
lot, the majority of the improvements for this expansion will be constructed on their
present lot within the current TIF District boundaries. Extending the duration of this TIF
district will be the only mechanism available to the HRA to assist in this expansion.
Based on these projections and the proposed facility expansion to occur within this TIF
District, staff recommends amendment of the TIF Plan for TIF District No 5 to extend its
duration to 9 years of captured increment.
Economic Development TIF District No.6 - JIT Powder Coatin~Inc.
This TIF District was also created in 1994. The amount of captured increment that was
originally estimated to be captured in this district was $52,462 a year for 8 years for a
total of $419,697. The actual amount of captured increment has averaged approximately
$33,700 a year for the first 3 years of the district and is projected to total $252,185 over 8
years, a difference of more than $160,000 less than originally projected.
This project involved the HRA selling the land at its actual improved cost of $76,300.
Seventy percent of the captured increment is being reimbursed to the developer to
reimburse the land cost and an estimated $126,550 in site improvements. The actual site
improvement costs for this site were considerably higher than originally estimated. The
additional year of captured increment will result in the developer being reimbursed
approximately $197,670 rather than the current projected amount of $176,529.79 which is
still $96,000 less than originally projected in 1994.
In addition, the developer of this project has also indicated a desire to expand their
present facility. While this expansion will also involve the purchase of the adjacent lot,
the majority of the improvements for this expansion will be constructed within the current
TIF District boundaries. Extending the duration of this TIF district will be the only
mechanism by available for the HRA to assist in this expansion.
Based on these projections and the proposed facility expansion to occur within this TIF
District, staff recommends amendment of the TIF Plan for TIF District No 6 to extend its
duration to 9 years of captured increment.
Economic Development TIF District No.7 - Minnesota Pine
This TIF District was also created in 1994. The amount of captured increment that was
estimated to be captured in this district was $23,670 a year for 8 years for a total of
$189,360. The actual amount of captured increment has averaged approximately $15,400
a year for the first 3 years of the district and is projected to total $114,250 over 8 years a
difference of $75,000 less than originally projected.
This project involved the HRA selling the land for $1. The captured increment is being
used to reimburse the HRA the cost of raw land and improvements. The additional year
of captured increment will result in the HRA being reimbursed approximately $127,885
rather than the current projected amount of $114,249 which would be closer to the
original budgeted reimbursement to the HRA.
Based on these projections staff recommends amendment of the TIF Plan for TIF District
No 7 to extend its duration to 9 years of captured increment.
Economic Development TIF District No.8 - Controlled Air
This TIF District was created in 1995. The amount of captured increment that was
originally estimated to be captured in this district was $19,200 a year for 8 years for a
total of $153,200. The actual amount of captured increment has averaged approximately
$12,100 a year for the first 3 years of the district and is projected to total $90,717 over 8
years or $63,000 less than originally projected.
This project involved the HRA selling the land for $1. In addition to reimbursing the
HRA for the improved land price, the TIF Plan budget also provided a partial
reimbursement to the Developer for site improvement costs. The total amount of this
reimbursement was estimated to be $38,424. Since the actual increment amount has
dropped below the minimum amount required to reimburse the HRA for the land costs,
the developer did not receive reimbursement in 1998 and is not scheduled to receive
reimbursement in 1999. The proposed additional year of captured increment will result in
a total of $101,594 of captured increment rather than the current projected amount of
$90,717. This would allow for reimbursements to the HRA and the Developer to be
closer to the original budgeted amount.
Based on these projections staff recommends amendment of the TIF Plan for TIF District
No 8 to extend its duration to 9 years of captured increment.
Economic Development TIF District No.9 - Crop Characteristics
This TIF District was also created in 1995. The amount of captured increment that was
estimated to be captured in this district was $10,184 a year for 8 years for a total of
$81,472. The actual amount of captured increment has averaged approximately $4,300 a
year for the first 2 years of the district and is projected to total $33,309 over 8 years, or
$48,000 less than originally projected.
This project involved the HRA selling the land its actual improved cost of $54,800.
Approximately 74% percent of the captured increment is being reimbursed to the
developer to reimburse the land cost and an estimated $44,450 in site improvements. The
additional year of captured increment will result in the developer being reimbursed
approximately $27,514 rather than the current projected amount of $24,515, which is still
$33,000 less than originally projected.
Based on these projections staff recommends amendment of the TIF Plan for TIF District
No 9 to extend its duration to 9 years of captured increment.
Economic Development TIF District No. 10 - CG Construction
This TIF District was also created in 1996. The amount of captured increment that was
estimated to be captured in this district was $17,849 a year for 8 years for a total of
$142,790. The actual amount of captured increment has averaged approximately $10,700
a year for the first 2 years of the district and is projected to total $82,988 over 8 years or
$59,000 less than originally projected.
This project involved the HRA selling the land for $1. In addition to reimbursing the
HRA for the improved land cost of $66,800, the HRA was to reimburse the developer
$80,000 in site improvement costs. The additional year of captured increment will result
in the HRA capturing a total of $93,253 of increment rather the current projected $82,988
which is sti1lless than total original projections. This will allow for reimbursement to the
HRA and Developer closer to the original budgeted amount.
Based on these projections staff recommends amendment of the TIF Plan for TIF District
No 10 to extend its duration to 9 years of captured increment.
Economic Development TIF District No. 11- Lexinlfon Standard Phase n
This TIF District was also created in 1996. The amount of captured increment that was
estimated to be captured in this district was $99,214 a year for 8 years for a total of
$793,712. The actual amount of captured increment has averaged approximately $78,900
a year for the first 2 years of the district and is projected to total $704,846 over 8 years, or
$89,000 less than originally projected.
This project involved the HRA selling the land its actual improved cost of $130,000.
The TIF Plan calls for 90% percent of the captured increment is being reimbursed to the
developer to reimburse the land cost and an estimated $663,714 in site improvements.
The additional year of captured increment will result in the developer being reimbursed
approximately $716,430 rather than the current projected amount of $634.361. This
would be just slightly in excess of the original budgeted amount.
Based on these projections. staff recommends amendment of the TIF Plan for TIF District
No 11 to extend its duration to 9 years of captured increment.
Economic Development TIF District No. 12- Precision Fitting and Valve
This TIF District was also created in 1996. The amount of captured increment that was
originally estimated to be captured in this district was $54,538 a year for 8 years for a
total of $436,304. The actual amount of captured increment will be $57,234 in 1999 and
is projected to total $424,133 over 8 years.
This project involved the HRA selling the land at its actual improved cost. 80 percent of
the captured increment is being reimbursed to the developer to reimburse the land cost
and site improvement costs which totaled $509,024. The additional year of captured
increment would result in the developer being reimbursed approximately $385,093 rather
than the current projected amount of $339,093. This level of reimbursement would
considerably exceed the original budgeted amount.
Based on these projections staff does not recommend an amendment of the TIF Plan for
TIP District No 12 at this time, but rather continue to monitor its financial status.
BUDGET IMPACT
The cost of preparing the necessary documents to facilitate the recommended TIF Plan
Amendments was estimated at $5,000 by the Dorsey Whitney law firm. The expenses
would be eligible to be reimbursed as administrative cost from the districts being
amended.
ACTION REOUESTED
Authorize the preparation of the necessary documents and schedule a public hearing for
consider amendments to the TIF Plans of Economic Development TIF Districts No.4, 5,
6,7,8,9,10 and 11.

SUBJECT: Proposed Amendment to Economic Development TIF Districts
DATE: February 8, 1999
INTRODUCTION
In. response to requeSts from several. industries in the Industrial. Park to expand their existing. facilities,
staff has been reviewing the possibility of extending the duration of existing TIF districts. John IGrby of
Dorsey Whitney has prQvided an opinion on the possibility of extending the duration of these existing
TIF districts.
DISCUSSION
Two existing industries in the Industrial Park have recently expressed interest in purchasing the adjacent
lots to expand their existing facilities. In both instances, the majority of the proposed expansion will take
place on their existing lot, which in both cases, is in an existing TIF District. In both cases, creationofa
new TIF District would not be practical since little or no building improvements would be constructed
outside of their presently existing TIF District. However in both cases the . additional. lot is needed for
setback, parking, and future expansion purposes.
In both of these cases, the original TIF Plans that were approved in 1994 included a maximum duration
of 10 years with a maximum of 8 eight years of captured tax increment. The law at the time would have
allowed for a TIF district to be created with II year maximum duration with 9 years of captured
increment.
As the attached memo from John Kirby indicates, the City BRA has the option to propose an amendment
to the original TIF plan to extend the duration of these TIF Districts to the maximum duration of 9 years
increment and II years duration to comport with original BRA intentions. This amendment process
would require both a letter notice to Dakota County and ISD 192, published notice in the newspaper and
a public hearing to approve this proposed additional one year extension of the TIF districts.
In addition to the districts in which expansions are being proposed, the HRA may wish to consider
extending the duration of the other Economic TIF Districts that were created in 1994 or later for the same
reason. The following is a list of all districts created since 1994:
· Economic Development District No.4 - Austin Products
· Economic Development District No.5 - Performance Industrial Coatings
· Economic Development District No.6 - JIT
· Economic Development District No. 7 - Minnesota Pipe
· Economic Development District No.8 - Controlled Air
· Economic Development District No.9 - Crop Characteristics
· Economic Development District No. 10 - CG Construction
· Economic Development District No. 11 - Lexington Standard
· Economic Development District No. 12 - Precision Fitting and Valve
BUDGET IMPACT
The Budget implications of these proposed amendments would vary from district to district and/or
project to project. In almost every case. the amount of tax increment that was estimated in the original
plan was higher than the actual amount of tax increment currently being captured. This is due in part to
two factors.
The first factor has been caused by the estimated market value of the improvements that the Dakota
County Assessor has assigned to building. and iInprovements. which has Ilet'n le~s. .than.. the . amount
ori~inally estimated in the TIF Plan.
The second. factor has been caused by the reduction of commercial and industrial tax rates approved .I>Y
the State Legislature in each of the last two legislative sessions. In effect, lowering the taxable value of
the building improvements in the TIF District.
The extension of the duration of each of these TIF districts would allow for additional reimbursement to
the lIRA to come closer to equaling.the lIRA's costs, as identified in the TIF Plan; for sites.that were
sold for a write-down price. In the .cases where companies are being reimbursed for eligible costs they
incurred, one additional year of increment will allow the companies additional. reimbursement to COme
closer to the amount intended in the original TIF Plan.
ACTION REOUESTED
The following actions are recommended for consideration by the Board:
1) Instruct staff to prepare detailed revenue projections for the TIF Districts to detennine whether an
additional year of increment would be necessary to reimburse the developer and the lIRA for the
original eligible costs and expenses identified in the TIF Plan; and
2) Obtain a proposal from legal and/or fiscal consultants to determine the costs associated with
preparing the necessary notices and amendment documents.

RE:
Amendmenl of TlF Plans
Here are my thoughts on amending the Economic Development District TIP Plans
which we discussed - I'll start with the argument against amendment and then rn discuss why, in
these particular cases, I think we can undertake the amendments.
1. Section 469.176, subdivision l(a). provides thaL a municipality may specify in
the TlF Plan a shorter maximum duration than the maximum permitted by law. According to the
last sentence in sl1bdivision 1 (a): "The specified limit applies in place of the otherwise
applicable limit:' Then, Section 469.176, subdi vision 1 d. states: "Moditlc3tion of a tax
increment financing phm pursuant to section 469.175, subdivision 4, shull not extend lhe
duration limitations of subdivisions 1 to 1 f," BWieu on these two provisions you can certainly
make an argumenL that once you have specified a dunltional limit, you can not extend it by
modification. If we proceed to modify the Farmington plans it is possible the State Auditor or
odler party may raise this point, so T want to point it out at this time.
2. Notwithstanding the argument set forth ill paragraph I above. I believe there is
a strong case to be made for modifying the Farmington TIF Plans. It is clear from Lhe language
that the intent of the drafter was to specify a duration for the districLS equal to the maximum tenn
permitted by law and not to ~pecify a ~pecitic shorter duration - hence the use of thl: a.lternative 8
and 10 year language. which was the maximum duration permilted for districts certified prior LO
May 31, 1993 (at which time it changed to the current 9 and 11 year limitalions). The problem
was the drafter was not aware, or forgot, that the durationallimits had changed. Hence, what we
really have here is a mistake in the language used to specify Lhe maximum duration. Under the
circumstances I believe we should be able Lo correct that mistake to make clear that the 9/11
limilf; apply. At the same time we should probably update lhe increment cash flow. update the
budget if necessary and make any other changes you deem appropriate. As you indicaled we
should go through the formal anlendment procedure with letter notice, published notice, etc.
After you have had a chance to review 'this memo please give me a call and tel me
know how you wi~h to proceed.

TO: Mayor, Councilmembers, City Administrato~
FROM: Lee M. Mann, P.E., Director of Public Works/City Engineer
SUBJECT: Award of Contract - Downtown Streetscape and Sliplining Project
DATE: June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
Bids were received for the Downtown Streetscape and Sliplining Project on Thursday,
June 17, 1999.
DISCUSSION
Two bids were received for the project (see attached bid tabulation). Arcon Construction
Company Inc. has submitted the low bid for the project improvements excluding the
street lights in the amount of $805,001.00. NSP has submitted a cost for installing the
street lights in the amount of $166,770.00. The total construction cost for the project
based on the bid and NSP's proposal is $971,771.00. The total estimated project cost
including contingencies and engineering, legal and administrative costs is'$1,295,000.
The bids came in significantly higher than anticipated. Discussions with contractors
during the bidding process and the receipt of only two bids for the project suggest that
there is little competitive interest in this type of project at this time.
BUDGET IMPACT
The estimated project cost in the feasibility report was $1,056,500. The estimated project
cost at the completion of the design was $1,080,200, an increase of approximately
$24,000 to the report estimate. The increase in the estimate was due to the addition of
water main work, additional street lights required beyond the project limits and necessary
additional mitigation of the poor soils below the existing sidewalk as recommended by
the soils engineer.
The estimated project cost based on the bids received is $1,295,000, approximately
$215,000 above the design estimate.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the fact that only two bids were received and said bids significantly exceed the
engineering estimates, staff is recommending that Council reject all bids. It would be
further recommended that this project be re-bid in January/February 2000.
Respectfully submitted,

Request to revise the 2020 Comprehensive Plan Update
Larry & Doneene Wenzel Property
DATE:
June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
The City has received a request from Mr. Gary G. Fuchs, Attorney at Law, on behalf of Mr. and
Mrs. Larry & Doneene Wenzel to re-designate three acres of their property to business on the
2020 Land Use Plan (see attached letter). The Wenzel property lies south of 195th Street and east
of the newly aligned Pilot Knob Road expansion.
DISCUSSION
In the February 1998 approval of the MUSA Expansion, this property showed approximately 11
acres of business along the west side of the newly aligned Pilot Knob Road expansion. At the
time, the business area was perceived as a logical location for a business strip center in close
proximity to dense neighborhoods and along a highly traveled traffic corridor.
However, during the Comprehensive Plan visioning sessions held in June of 1998, it became
apparent that maintaining the downtown area was a high priority and extensive commercial areas
located outside of the downtown business district could detract from the downtown revitalization
goals set at the visioning sessions.
The Planning Commission and City Council examined this property in March and April of 1999
and determined that the business area shown on the Wenzel property was too large in scale and
may detract from the downtown by drawing businesses to this new location. They also
determined that since the Charleswood development to the west had already designated the
southwest comer of 195th Street and Pilot Knob Road as a business/high density residential use,
the location of an additional business use to the east on the Wenzel property may become too
populated with businesses and further detract from the downtown revitalization goals. Therefore,
the business strip was removed from the Wenzel property and relocated to the north at a smaller
scale on the SeedlGenstar property in Neighborhood District 2.
Throughout the Comprehensive Planning process, Mr. Wenzel did not comment on proposed
changes to the land use designations for his property. However, with the prospects of
development on his property, the developers have begun to formulate conceptual plans that
include both residential and business land use designations.
The attached conceptual site plan shows high, medium and low-density designations along with a
three acre business designation directly to the south of the City's proposed general maintenance
facility. The residential areas generally comply with the 2020 Land Use Plan shown on the
Wenzel property with the exception of the business use proposal.
With this new information showing a development concept for the property, City staff
recommends that the City Council refer this matter back to the Planning Commission for their
review so that the Planning Commission may forward their recommendations concerning this
request to the City Council at a later meeting.
ACTION REOUESTED
Refer this request back to the Planning Commission for their review and recommendation.
Respectfully Submitted,

Re: 2020 Comprehensive Guide Plan
Larry & Doneene Wenzel Property
Dear Mr. Olson:
Thank you for the time you took last week to visit with me regarding the City's ongoing
efforts to revise its Comprehensive Guide Plan and how those efforts affect the land owned by
Larry and Doneene Wenzel, my clients.
On behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Wenzel, I request that they and their representatives be placed
on the Council agenda for the June 21, 1999 Council meeting for the purpose of presenting a
request that a portion of their property that lies south of 19Sth Street and east of Pilot Knob Road
be designated on the 2020 Comprehensive Guide Plan for future Business uses.
We are currently working on identifying the specific portion of the property to be guided
for Business use. I will contact you as soon as we have a decision and will give you as much
information ahead of time as I can.
In the meantime, please place the matter on the Council agenda, and if you have any
quesiions, please cali me.
Very truly yours,

TO: Mayor and Council Members
FROM: John F. Erar, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Castle Rock Board Communication - Ash Street Sub-Committee Meeting
DATE: June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
The City has received a response from Castle Rock Township dated June 2, 1999 acknowledging
Councilmembers' Cordes and Soderberg communication dated May 7, 1999.
DISCUSSION
In review of this most recent Township communication, staff has identified the following issues
that continue to be raised by the township. It would appear that these issues remain either
unresolved or unclear with the township as of this date.
1) Township issue of a "20 year commitment of no forcible annexation". Council has
previously indicated that this issue is premature given the context of current discussions.
However, Council has suggested no interest in forcibly annexing township properties.
Similarly, Council has indicated that the substantive nature of these discussions could be
raised at the next stage of project discussions.
2) Township issue of "a fair and equitable tax policy on voluntary or "hook-up" annexations.
Council has taken the position of supporting State guidelines relative to declining tax
payments to the township. I have included additional information from the Department of
Revenue on annexation by ordinance levy procedures that could be incorporated in an
orderly annexation agreement. Again, these discussions could be raised at the next stage
of proj ect discussions.
3) Township issue of "maximum assessments and/or hook-up charges that Farmington
agrees will not be exceeded under any circumstances." This point has been raised by the
township in the past to suggest a ceiling for township property assessments regardless of
actual project costs. In response, staff has indicated that feasibility study costs are
estimates, and that the City could not guarantee or limit assessments based on feasibility
estimates. Moreover, should the City take the position of "maximum assessments" as
advocated by the Township, and actual project assessments exceed the "maximum", then

Page 2 of2
the City would effectively have to subsidize township charges with City taxpayer dollars.
Again, this issue is also premature given the stage of project discussions.
4) The issue associated with jurisdictional cost-sharing for the feasibility study in the event
that the project does not go forward has again been raised by the township. Castle Rock
Township's most recent proposal suggests committing $2,500 to the City for feasibility
study costs over and above their lower portion of feasibility study costs in the event the
Township does not approve the project is unclear. As Council may recall, the joint
powers agreement approved by Council on April 5, 1999 indicates that both jurisdictions
will equally share costs unless the project is ordered. If the project is ordered, then the
costs of the feasibility study would be allocated according to project construction costs.
The latest proposal by the Township suggests that the City would have higher feasibility
study costs, effectively negating the 50/50 cost share concept, and that should the
Township decide not to approve the project, they would offer $2,500. This significantly
alters the City's previous understanding of an equal cost-sharing arrangement in the
absence of moving the project forward. It has been the City's understanding that should
the project not be ordered, that both jurisdictions, regardless of which jurisdiction took
the project disapproval action, would equally share in the costs of preparing a new
feasibility study.
Section 6. Right to Terminate, of the Joint Powers Agreement, establishes this
understanding based on the cost sharing formula of an even split of feasibility report
costs.
ACTION REOUESTED
This brief analysis of the Township's letter dated June 2, 1999 is presented for Council's review
and discussion. The Township has indicated that they would be willing to attend another
subcommittee meeting to further discuss these remaining issues. If Council desires to hold
another sub-committee meeting, possible dates should be determined and forwarded to the
Township.

Dear Council Members,
We have reviewed your letter of May 7, 1999. We appreciate your timely
correspondence and your candor and forthrightness in stating your position.
Your positions are not unreasonable, but we feel that they need to be fine tuned and
worked out for the mutual benefit of both communities.
Of significant concern to the township is the issue of orderly annexation. a 20-year
commitment for no forcible annexation and a fair and equitable tax policy on voluntary or
"hook-up" annexations is absolutely critical to this process going-forward. The impact on
the loss of these tax revenues to the township is not small. We have every intention of
fulfilling our obligations to the taxpayers and residents of Castle Rock Township.
We, like you, know that we all need a completed Feasibility Report to make good
judgments on this project and its effect on our communities. The Feasibility Report must
contain maximum assessments and/or hook-up charges that Farmington agrees will not be
exceeded under any circumstances. The residents will then know how much the costs
will be and will be able to advise us in a knowledgeable fashion of their desires and needs
in this matter. Likewise you will have a clear picture of Farmington's cost in the matter.
We realize that the City of Farmington, as the lead agency on this project, will incur
engineering costs in excess of those of Castle Rock. In the event that Castle Rock does
not approve the project, we would commit to advancing $2,500.00 to the City of
,.
Farmington to help defray its additional engineering costs. We feel that is a gesture of
good will towards our neighbor and hope that you will accept it as such.
Ifwe can agree in principle, especially on the tax retainage by Castle Rock Township, we
believe that an Orderly Annexation Agreement as outlined above and the Joint Powers
Agreement can be reasonable and fair to both communitites. We will continue to meet
and negotiate in good faith and out of respect and concern for our neighbors and .our
neighboring community. We are looking forward to another subcommittee meeting and
would be glad to meet at the Township Hall as reasonably soon as you are able to
schedule a meeting.
Thank you for your consideration and cooperation.
Very truly yours,

RE: Re""ised Instructions Regarding Annexations By Ordinance
.
In a letter to you dated September 22, 1994, I provided instructions cOncerning how to
administer the property tax provisions of the new taw governing 'annexations by .
ordinance (M.S. 414.033). Recently one ofyoUt peers pointed out that the 1994 letter
does not agree with the current law. This observation is correct, since Laws 1997,
Chapter 31, Article 3, Section 15 made the following significant changes to the
annexations by ordinance law:
. If the annexation becomes effective after August 1. of the levy year. the town
continues to levy on the annexed area for that le'V)' year, and the town tax~s '
collected in the following taxes payable year, are paid'to the town. In this situation,
the city does not begin to receive taxes from the annexed 'area until the year
following the first year that the city may levy on the arinexed area. Previously~ if
the annexation became effective after August I of a levy year, the town taxes
collected from property in the annexed area in the following taxes payable year
were to be paid to the city. l
. The basis for the required payments from the city to the town was, changed to the
amount of property taxes that were distributed to the town in regard to the annexed
area in the last year that the property taxes from the ~exed area were payable to
the town. Previously the payments were based on the town portion of the property
taxes collected from the annexed area in the year the land was annexed.
. The city does not begin to make payments to the town until the year following the
year that the city may levy on the annexed area.
These changes are effective for annexations that became effective in 1996 and
thereafter.

The following example illustrates how the property tax provisions of the annexation
by ordinance law, as amended, are to be administered:
1. The annexation by ordinance is effective 10/1/98.
2. The town levies on the annexed area for the taxes payable year 1999.
3. The county treasurer distributes the town share of the 1999 tax collections for
the annexed area to the town.

4. The- city begins to levy on the annexed area starting with levy year 1"999. taxes ..
payable 2000.
S. The county treasurer distributes the city portion of the 2000 tax proceeds for
the annexed area to the city.
6. The county auditor determines the taxes distributed to the town in 1999 in
regard to the annexed area.
7. In 2000, the city pays the town an amount equal to 90% of the taxes
distributed to the town in 1999 in regard to the annexed area.
8. In 2001, the city pays the town an amount equal to 70% of the taxes
distributed to the town in 1999 in regard to the annexed area.
9. In 2002, the city pays the town an amount equal to 50% of the taxes
distributed to the town in 1999 in regard to the annexed area.
10. In 2003, the city pays the town an amount equal to 30% ofthe taxes
distributed to the town in 1999 in regard to the annexed area.
11. In 2004, the city pays the town an amount equal to 10% of the taxes
distributed to the town in 1999 in regard to the annexed area.
12. In 2005 and thereafter, no further payments are made by the city to the town.
An exam.ple with numbers is enclosed to further illustrate these provisions.
Note: If the annexation was effective August 1 or earlier in 1998, the city would
begin to levy on the annexed area in 1998, taxes payable 1999 instead of
waiting until levy year 1999, taxeS payable 2000.

FROM: John F. Erar, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Approve Joint Powers Agreement - Castle Rock Township
DATE: April 5, 1999
INTRODUCTION
At the March 10, 1999 joint project sub-committee meeting with Castle Rock Township
representatives, substantial agreement was reached concerning the approval of the draft Joint
Powers Agreement (JPA) presented to Council on January 19, 1999. As Council is aware, the
JP A will authorize the commission of a new feasibility study for the reconstruction of Ash Street
and construction of Phase III of the Prairie Waterway.
DISCUSSION
The attached JP A represents final committee discussions and thoughts and, with the exception of
one provisional change, does not materially affect the scope of the original draft of the
agreement. The one issue that was discussed at length by committee members focused on
feasibility cost allocations contained within Section 5 of the JPA. Essentially, this provision was
changed to allocate the cost of the feasibility study on an equal percentage basis to each
jurisdiction, unless the project is ordered. If the project is ordered, then feasibility study costs
will be allocated according to project construction cost percentages.
Committee members felt that this change represented the most equitable cost position for both
jurisdictions. It is my understanding that Committee members Cordes and Soderberg support the
JP A as amended and recommend full Council adoption at this time.
The Joint Project Committee discussed the need for l:!<iditional information on cost estimates and
time frame for the feasibility study. Committee members requested that City Engineer Mann and
Township engineering consultant Foertsch, of Rieke Carroll Muller Associates, Inc., meet to
more fully discuss the scope of feasibility study. Attached, please find copies of correspondence
from City Engineer Mann and Mr. Foertsch which will be discussed at this evening's meeting.
Township representatives indicated their support for the JPA as amended and stated that they
would bring the agreement back to their full Board on March 23, 1999 for approval. No other
issues were discussed or raised by the Township representatives regarding lPA issues or any
other concerns at that time.
ACTION REOUESTED
It is my understanding that the Castle Rock Township Board did not approve the JP A at their
March 23, 1999 Board meeting, and that a certain issue remains unresolved from the Township
Board's perspective regarding annexation of properties on the east side of Highway 3 along State
Highway 50. This issue, however, was never raised or discussed with City representatives at the
project committee meeting on March 10, 1999. Council may wish to discuss this issue at the
April 5, 1999 Council meeting and identify potential options regarding an appropriate City
response.
In review of past documentation, Council did take a formal public position on requiring any non-
municipal properties served with municipal services to be brought into the City. This position
was one of several project principles discussed and, in my understanding, accepted by the
Township in meetings last year regarding fundamental City project principles.
Approve the attached JP A as presented. While Council action approving the JP A will not
authorize the commissioning of a new joint project feasibility study until formally approved by
Castle Rock Township, it will satisfy the terms and conditions the Council has publicly agreed to
regarding the City's commitment to commission a new feasibility study.
Council may wish to have a letter transmitted to the Castle Rock Township Board informing
them of the Council action approving the JP A, and requesting information on the status of the
anticipated Township Board action on the JPA.
Respectfully Submitted,

SUBJECT: Prairie Waterway, Ash Street Utilities and Storm Sewer project
DATE: March 31, 1999
Mr. Mike Foertsch, the engineer for Castle Rock Township and I met on March 16, 1999
to discuss the assignment of responsibilities in regards to the feasibility report for the Ash
StreetlPrairie Waterway III project. At that meeting, we agreed on the following
allocation of duties:
Prairie Waterway III
Castle Rock will complete the portion of the feasibility report for the Prairie Waterway
III (PW III). All field work, design and generation of report text for PW III will be the
responsibility of Castle Rock's engineer. Farmington's engineer will supply Castle
Rock's engineer with the storm water flows coming from the storm sewer system in Ash
Street from the west. Farmington's engineer will review Castle Rock's design of the PW
III.
Ash Street Utilities and Storm Sewer
Farmington will complete the portion of the feasibility report for the utilities and storm
sewer in Ash Street. All field work, design and generation of the report text for the
sanitary sewer, water main and storm sewer for Ash Street will be the responsibility of
Farmington's Engineer. Castle Rock's engineer will supply Farmington's engineer with
the land uses for areas in the Township that drain into the Ash Street storm sewer system.
Castle Rock's engineer will review Farmington's design of the utilities and storm sewer
in Ash Street.
Ash Street Improvements
Farmington will incorporate the County's design of Ash Street in the feasibility report.
All coordination with Dakota County and generation of the report text for the
improvements for Ash Street will be the responsibility of Farmington's Engineer.
Feasibility Report Preparation Estimates
It had been estimated in the past that the cost to produce a new feasibility report for the
Ash Street project would cost between $30,000 and $40,000. I telephoned Mr. Foertsch
on Monday, March 29, to find out what the estimated engineering costs are associated
with completing the portion of the feasibility report for which Castle Rock is responsible.
Mr. Foertsch indicated he had not yet received a request from Castle Rock Township to
provide that information, however, he indicated he would forward his estimate as soon as
possible.
The estimated engineering costs for the City to complete it's portion of the feasibility
report for which Farmington would be responsible is $29,500. It is estimated that the
cost to review the Castle Rock's part of the feasibility report would not exceed $3,500,
and could be less. It should be noted that the work and costs to complete the report are
significantly greater for Farmington versus the duties that have been allocated to Castle
Rock by mutual agreement.
It is anticipated that the total cost to complete the report (not including Farmington's
review of Castle Rock and vice versa) will not exceed $40,000. The Joint Powers
Agreement stipulates that this cost would be split evenly between the City and the
Township in the event that the project is not ordered. If the project is ordered, then
feasibility study costs will be allocated the same as the construction costs for the project.

Sewer Connection Request - Malinski Property
DATE:
June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
Arcon Development has submitted a letter to the City outlining alternatives for providing sanitary
sewer service to the Malinski property and requesting discussion with the City Council regarding the
identified alternatives (see attached).
DISCUSSION
The Malinski property is located east of Limerock Ridge and south of the future Prairie Creek
Additions. The Malinski property is not currently developable because sewer is not available to the
site. The alternatives identified by Arcon relating to the development of the Malinski property in
regards to the sewer issue are as follows:
1) There is currently a City owned trunk sanitary sewer line running west to east approximately 150-
feet north of the Malinski property through the property owned by Progress Land Company. In
order to access this sewer line and allow for the development of the site, an easement will need to be
obtained from Progress Land Company. The required easement could be obtained either through
negotiations with Progress Land or through the City's powers of eminent domain.
City position: Arcon Development is strongly encouraged to continue negotiations with Progress
Land Company to obtain the necessary easement for the permanent connection to the trunk sanitary
sewer to the north. In light of the City's relationship with Progress Land Company and the
anticipated cost associated with the condemnation process, staff does not recommend that the City
exercise its powers of eminent domain on behalf of the developer to obtain a sewer easement from
Progress Land Company.
Staff recommendation not withstanding, if the Council decides to move forward and utilize its
powers of eminent domain to acquire the easement, all costs associated with the process would need
to be borne by the developer. Furthermore, Council should be aware that the decision to use eminent
domain on behalf of the developer would set a precedent for future development situations.
2) The second alternative is to allow Arcon to install a temporary lift station that would convey the
flows to an existing accessible sewer line. The temporary lift station would be eliminated at such
time the property to the north develops or Progress Land Company grants the necessary easement.
All costs associated with the installation of the temporary lift station, removal of the temporary lift
station and future permanent connection to the sewer line to the north would be the responsibility of
Arcon Development.
City position: From an engineering standpoint, the installation of a lift station that would allow the
site to have sewer service is an acceptable temporary solution. A transfer switch to accommodate an
auxiliary power source would be required equipment on the lift station. It is anticipated that the
permanent connection would be available within five years. As stated above, all costs associated
with the installation of the temporary lift station, removal of the temporary lift station and future
permanent connection to the sewer line to the north would be the responsibility of Arcon
Development.
3) The third alternative would be for the developer to wait until the property to the north develops
before the Malinski property develops.
City position: This alternative becomes the outcome if the developer is unsuccessful in acquiring the
easement from Progress Land Company, the Council determines not to use eminent domain to
acquire the easement and the Council prohibits the installation of a temporary lift station.
Mr. Larry Frank of Arcon Development will be present at the meeting to discuss these issues with
the Council.

RE: Jon Malinski Property, Farmington, MN
Dear Mr. Erar,
This letter is a follow-up to the meeting on May 10, 1999, to discuss the issue of sewer
availability to the Jon Malinski property in Farmington. Scott Johnson, President of
Arcon Development, Inc., and myself have visited with Warren Israelson, Progress Land
Company, several times to discuss the possibility of connecting sanitary sewer from the
Malinski property to the existing sanitary sewer line on his property. As of this date, no
resolution has been reached, however, we do anticipate hearing from Mr. Israelson by the
end of this week.
As was discussed at the May 10fl1 meeting, the Malinski property cannot be developed at
present because sewer is not available to the site, there are three alternatives relating to.
the development of the Malinski property regarding this sewer issue;
I. Connect directly to the existing line to the north, either by permission of Mr.
Israelson, or through condemnation.
2. Install a temporary lift station within the Malinski property that would be
removed when the Israelson property is developed and a permanent
connection can be made.
3. No development on the Malinski property until the Israelson property is
developed.
Subject to not reaching a resolution with Mr. Israelson this week, Mr. Malinski and I
would like to appear before the City Council on June 8, to discuss the above alternatives
relating to the development of the Malinski property.
I will be out of town the 3M and 4fl1 of June, but will call you Monday to confirm the City
Council meeting agenda.
We look forward to meeting with the City Council to discuss this issue.

INTRODUCTION
Heritage Development proposes to develop 66 single-family lots on 23.03 acres for the 7th
Addition of Nelson Hills Farm and provides a density of2.8 dwelling units per acre. This is the
final phase of the Nelson Hills Farm.PUD Development.
DISCUSSION
Nelson Hills 7th Addition is located north of 190th Street, west of Everest Path, south of Nelson
Hills Farm 5th Addition and east of the Devney property.
The proposed plat consists of four east-west local streets connecting to Everest Path to the east.
The streets will be constructed at 32 feet in width within a 60-foot right-of-way. Executive
Avenue shows a temporary cul-de-sac along the west property line and Exceptional Trail will
terminate as a stub street at the west property line. Sidewalks are not required on local streets and
are not provided for in this plat. Outlot A is proposed as a storm water pond and is located in the
central portion of the 7th Addition.
The parkland requirement has been met with the land acquisition of Daisy Knoll Park located
northeast of the Nelson Hills Farm 7th Addition. Construction of a play structure in this park will
commence in the summer of 1999. An existing north-south trail is located to the east of Everest
Path and continues south through the Troyhills development.
Grading for the Nelson Hills Farm 7th Addition has recently begun and will continue during the
summer months. A conditional use permit for grading the site was granted by the Planning
Commission on September 8, 1998 and by the City Council on September 21, 1998.
The Engineering Division has completed their review and has determined that minor engineering
issues need to be addressed as discussed in the attached letter by Lee Mann, Director of Public
Works/City Engineer.
The Planning Commission approved the Nelson Hills 7th Addition Preliminary & Final Plat on
May 25, 1999 contingent on engineering requirements and the submittal of a landscape and street
lighting plan. The landscape and street lighting plans have been received and approved by the
Planning and Engineering Divisions.
REQUESTED ACTION
Council approval of the attached resolution for the Nelson Hills Farm 7th Addition Preliminary &
Final Plat contingent on engineering requirements.

Application to Rezone Lot 3 in Block 16, Town of Farmington from R-2
(Medium-Density Residential) to B-2 (Heavy Business).
DATE:
June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
Lamperts Lumber is requesting to rezone Lot 3 in Block 16, Town of Farmington from R-2
Medium-Density Residential to B-2 General Business in Lot 3 (consisting of 10,235 square feet).
The owner proposes to expand the supply yard to the northwest into Lot 3 and this requires the
rezoning of the lot to allow a supply yard as a conditional use in a B-2 zoning district.
DISCUSSION
The property is located north of Lamperts Lumber along the south side of Oak Street. A
townhome development is proposed to the north of Lot 3 Block 16, a rail line and grain elevator
is located to the east, Lamperts Lumber retail and warehouse building is located to the south and a
single-family home resides to the west.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the rezoning of Lot 3, Block 16, Town of
Farmington on June 8, 1999.
Lamperts Lumber originally sought a change to B-3 Heavy Business zoning for Lots I, 2 and 3
which currently exists on the Lamperts Lumber lot to the south. The owner requested the B-3
zone to alleviate the need for additional meetings such as the need for conditional use permits if
the lumberyard were to expand in the future, since the B-3 zoning district permits supply yards.
However, at a meeting with Mike Cordova, Manager of Lamperts Lumber on June 3, 1999, the
Planning Division indicated to Mr. Cordova that staff would be recommending that the lots be
rezoned to B-2 General Business. Staffs position on this deals with the need to control future
expansion of Lamperts Lumber through conditional use permits because of the close proximity to
residential uses on the west and north. With the conditional use process, certain conditions may
be placed on a business when expansion or other construction is proposed such as screening or
landscaping requirements.
At the June 8, 1999 Planning Commission meeting, Lamperts Lumber agreed to the B-2 zoning
designation on Lot 3 Block 16 and maintaining the B-2 zoning for Lots 1 and 2.
Additional discussions at the June 8, 1999 meeting included discussions of previous requirements
that were not met when the lumberyard expanded in approximately 1993. A site plan submitted
in 1993 showed parking and landscaping improvements along Spruce Street in front of the retail
portion of the lumberyard. The City approved the site plan, however, the improvements along
Spruce Street were never installed. Currently, the parking lot along Spruce Street consists of
gravel and no landscaping has been installed. As required by City Code 10-6-8 (A2), "any off-
street parking lot and driveway area shall be graded for proper drainage and surfaced with
concrete or bituminous materiaL"
Therefore, the Planning Commission recommended that the parking lot be paved along Spruce
Street and landscaping be installed to fulfill the requirements of that approval.
In conclusion, the following issues were addressed and approved by the Planning Commission:
1. Rezone Lot 3 of Block 16, Town of Farmington from R-2 (Medium-Density residential) to B-
2 General Business and maintain the B-2 General Business zone for Lots 1 and 2, Block 16,
Town of Farmington.
2. Pave the parking lot along Spruce Street and provide landscaping in order to fulfill the
requirements of the 1993 approval.
3. Screening shall be provided within the expansion area requiring slats to be installed within
the proposed chain link fence.
4. Installation of landscaping along Oak Street at the north side of the property is required.
Lamperts Lumber was informed of the above requirements at the June 8, 1999 Planning
Commission meeting and have agreed to comply upon approval of the rezoning.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the attached resolution to rezone Lot 3, Block 16, Town of Farmington from R-2
(Medium-Density Residential) to B-2 (General Business) contingent upon the approval of the
2020 Comprehensive Plan Update.

SUBJECT: Water Board Communication - Proposed Water Use Restrictions
DATE: June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
The Water Board is considering adopting water use restrictions.
DISCUSSION
The purpose for adopting water use restrictions is two-fold. First, water use restrictions
have the effect of reducing the peak water demand during the summer season when water
usage is at its highest. By reducing the peak, the need for additional water supply wells
and water reservoirs is reduced, which in turn reduces the capital costs for building those
facilities.
Second, water use restrictions can result in water conservation. Water conservation is a
requirement of the City's Water Appropriation Permit that is granted by the DNR. As the
City grows and needs to pump more water, the DNR has the authority to regulate the
additional amount of water pumped from the aquifer. As part of the approval process, the
City must have a water conservation plan in place. As the City grows and needs to
appropriate more water, a watering ban would be looked on favorably by the DNR and
help the City to obtain approval for increased water appropriations. Future studies of the
Jordan aquifer (the aquifer from which Farmington's future wells will appropriate water)
may indicate the. need for mandatory water use restrictions in the Cities that draw water
from this aquifer.
There are two possible means with which to enact water use restrictions. The first would
entail the Water Board adopting water use restrictions as a policy. Enforcement of the
policy would be through penalties included as a surcharge on the water bill. The Water
Board has the statutory authority to enact this type of policy. As the Water Board does
not have the statutory authority to pass ordinances, no criminal penalties would be
possible under this approach.
Alternatively or in addition, the City Council could adopt water use restrictions as an
ordinance, which could be ultimately enforced by criminal citation. Attached is a
preliminary draft ordinance for discussion purposes. The draft ordinance outlines odd-
even water use restrictions, corresponding to property address, effective year round.
There is also a clause addressing emergency situations.
Nearby neighboring communities that currently have water use restrictions include
Eagan, Rosemount and Hastings. It would be the Water Board's intent that, if water use
restrictions are to be implemented, they become effective January 1,2000.
BUDGET IMPACT
None at this time.
ACTION REQUESTED
1. Council discussion regarding the issue of water use restrictions;
2. Provide recommendations regarding water use restrictions to the Water Board.

SUBJECT: Resident Alley Paving Request
DATE: June 21, 1999
INTRODUCTION
Mr. Matt Fischer, 904 7th Street, has requested that he be allowed to pave a portion of the
alley behind his home.
DISCUSSION
Mr. Fischer has approached City staff and requested that he be allowed to pave (concrete)
the portion of the alley abutting his property, as well as to the north to Beech Street
(approximately 200-feet), at his cost. Mr. Fischer proposes to do this in order to improve
the aesthetics and drainage of the alley.
As this project would be a public improvement, Council authorization is necessary before
Mr. Fischer could proceed with the work. Attached is a draft agreement that would
address the City's issues with the project. This agreement would need to be executed, the
surety posted and the construction details approved by engineering staff prior to the
commencement of the work. It is recommended that the City notify the other residents
affected by the improvement prior to construction.
At this time, assuming that the engineering details can be resolved, engineering staff does
not see any reason to deny Mr. Fischer's request.
BUDGET IMPACT
None.
ACTION REQUESTED
Council consideration whether to allow Mr. Fischer to pave the alley behind his residence
subject to the requirements outlined in the attached draft agreement.

owner of the Bond, whether the Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of
receiving payment of or on account of, the principal of and (subject to Section 2.3)
interest on the Bond and for all other purposes; and all payments made to or upon the
order of such Holder shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon
Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.

exchange of Bonds, but the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay any
tax, fee or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to any transfer or
exchange.
(h) Mutilated. Lost, Stolen or Destroved Bonds. In case any Bond shall become
mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Registrar shall deliver a new Bond of like

cancellation of any such mutilated Bond or in lieu of and in substitution for any Bond
destroyed, stolen or lost, upon the payment of the reasonable expenses and charges of the
Registrar in connection therewith; and, in the case of a Bond destroyed, stolen or lost,
upon filing with the Registrar of evidence satisfactory to it that the Bond was destroyed,
stolen or lost, and of the ownership thereof, and upon furnishing to the Registrar of an
appropriate bond or indemnity in form, substance and amount satisfactory to it, in which
both the Issuer and the Registrar shall be named as obligees. All Bonds so surrendered to

the Issuer. If the mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Bond has already matured or been
called for redemption in accordance with its terms it shall not be necessary to issue a new
Bond prior to payment.
(i) Authenticating Agent. The Registrar is hereby designated authenticating agent
for the Bonds, within the meaning of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.55, Subdivision 1,
as amended.
(j) Valid Obligations. All Bonds issued upon any transfer or exchange of Bonds

exchange.

direction of the Administrator and shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the signatures of
the Mayor and the Administrator, provided that the signatures may be printed, engraved or
lithographed facsimiles of the originals. In case any officer whose signature or a facsimile of
whose signature shall appear on any Bond shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of
such Bond, such signature or facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes,
the same as if such officer had remained in office until the date of delivery of such Bond.
Notwithstanding such execution, no Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or entitled
to any security or benefit under this Resolution unless and until a certificate of authentication on
the Bond, substantially in the form provided in Section 2.8, has been executed by the manual
signature of an authorized representative of the Registrar. Certificates of authentication on
different Bonds need not be signed by the same representative. The executed certificate of
authentication on any Bond shall be conclusive evidence that it has been duly authenticated and
delivered under this Resolution. When the Bonds have been prepared, executed and
authenticated, the Administrator shall deliver them to the Purchaser upon payment of the
purchase price in accordance with the contract of sale heretofore executed, and the Purchaser
shall not be obligated to see to the application of the purchase price.

and one Bond shall be issued in the principal amount of each stated maturity of the Bonds. Upon

as the sole and exclusive owner of the Bonds registered in its name for the purposes of payment
of the principal of or interest on the Bonds, selecting the Bonds or portions thereof to be
redeemed, if any, giving any notice permitted or required to be given to registered owners of
Bonds under this resolution, registering the transfer of Bonds, and for all other purposes
whatsoever; and neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary. Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall have any responsibility or obligation to any
Participant, any person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in the Bonds under or through
DTC or any Participant, or any other person which is not shown on the bond register as being a
registered owner of any Bonds, with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or
any Participant, with respect to the payment by DTC or any Participant of any amount with
respect to the principal of or interest on the Bonds, with respect to any notice which is permitted

DTC or any Participant of any person to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of
the Bonds, or with respect to any consent given or other action taken by DTC as registered owner
of the Bonds. So long as any Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC,
the Registrar shall pay all principal of and interest on such Bond, and shall give all notices with
respect to such Bond, only to Cede & Co. in accordance with DTC's Operational Arrangements,
and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer's
obligations with respect to the principal of and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or
sums so paid. No person other than DTC shall receive an authenticated Bond for each separate
stated maturity evidencing the obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal and interest.
Upon delivery by DTC to the Registrar of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to
substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., the Bonds will be transferable to such new
nominee in accordance with paragraph (e) hereof.
(c) In the event the Issuer determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial
Owners that they be able to obtain Bonds in the form of bond certificates, the Issuer may notify
DTC and the Registrar, whereupon DTC shall notify the Participants of the availability through
DTC of Bonds in the form of certificates. In such event, the Bonds will be transferable in
accordance with paragraph (e) hereof. DTC may determine to discontinue providing its services
with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving notice to the Issuer and the Registrar and
discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. In such event the
Bonds will be transferable in accordance with paragraph (e) hereof..
-6-
(d) The execution and delivery of the Representation Letter to DTC by the Mayor or City
Administrator, if not previously filed with DTC, is hereby authorized and directed.
(e) In the event that any transfer or exchange of Bonds is permitted under paragraph (b)
or (c) hereof, such transfer or exchange shall be accomplished upon receipt by the Registrar of
the Bonds to be transferred or exchanged and appropriate instruments of transfer to the permitted
transferee in accordance with the provisions of this resolution. In the event Bonds in the form of
certificates are issued to owners other than Cede & Co., its successor as nominee for DTC as
owner of all the Bonds, or another securities depository as owner of all the Bonds, the provisions
of this resolution shall also apply to all matters relating thereto, including, without limitation, the

denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof, of single maturities.
Bonds having stated maturity dates in the year 2005 and thereafter are each subject to
redemption at the option of the Issuer, in whole or in part, in inverse order of maturity dates and,
if less than all Bonds of a single maturity date are to be redeemed, by lot or other method as
selected by the Registrar (or, if applicable, by the bond depository in accordance with its
customary procedures), in multiples of $5,000, on December 1,2004, and on any Interest
Payment Date thereafter, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus interest
accrued to the date of redemption. At least 30 days before to the date specified for the
redemption of any Bond the Issuer will cause notice of redemption to be published if and to the
extent required by law, and to be mailed by first class mail (or, if applicable, provided in
accordance with the operational arrangements of the bond depository), to the registered owner of
any Bond to be redeemed at the owner's address as it appears on the Bond Register maintained by
the Registrar, but no defect in or failure to give such notice of redemption shall affect the validity
of proceedings for the redemption of any Bond not affected by such defect or failure. Upon
surrender to the Registrar of any Bond which has been redeemed in part, a new Bond or Bonds
will be delivered to the owner without charge, representing the unredeemed portion of the
principal of the Bond so surrendered.
As provided in the Resolution and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, this
Bond is transferable upon the Bond Register maintained by the Registrar at its principal office,
upon surrender of this Bond for transfer at such office, duly endorsed by the registered owner
hereof in person or by the owner's attorney duly authorized in writing upon surrender hereof
together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar, duly executed by the
registered owner or the owner's attorney, and may also be surrendered in exchange for Bonds of
other authorized denominations. Upon such transfer or exchange the Issuer will cause a new
Bond or Bonds to be issued in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, of the same
aggregate principal amount, bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date. The
Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay any tax, fee or governmental charge
required to be paid with respect to any such transfer or exchange.
-8-
The Bonds have been designated by the Issuer as "qualified tax-exempt obligations"
pursuant to Section 265(b )(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
The Issuer and the Registrar may deem and treat the person in whose name this Bond is
registered as the absolute owner hereof, whether this Bond is overdue or not, for the purpose of
receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, and neither the Issuer nor the
Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Bond, so long as this Bond is registered in
the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, or in the name of any
other nominee of The Depository Trust Company or other securities depository, the Registrar
shall pay all principal of and interest on this Bond, and shall give all notices with respect to this
Bond, only to Cede & Co. or other nominee in accordance with the operational arrangements of
The Depository Trust Company or other securities depository as agreed to by the Issuer.
IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED, RECITED, COVENANTED AND AGREED that all acts,
conditions and things required by the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota to be done,
to exist, to happen and to be performed preliminary to and in the issuance of this Bond in order to
make it a valid and binding general obligation of the Issuer in accordance with its terms, have
been done, do exist, have happened and have been performed as so required; that, prior to the
issuance hereof, the City Council has by the Resolution covenanted and agreed to levy special
assessments upon property specially benefitted by the local improvements financed by the Bonds,
and ad valorem taxes on all taxable property in the Issuer, which will be collectible for the years
and in amounts sufficient to produce sums not less than five percent in excess of the principal of
and interest on the Bonds when due, and has appropriated such special assessments and taxes to
its General Obligation Improvement Bonds of 1999 Bond Fund for the payment of such principal
and interest; that if necessary for payment of such principal and interest, additional ad valorem
taxes are required to be levied upon all taxable property in the Issuer, without limitation as to rate
or amount; that the issuance of this Bond, together with all other indebtedness of the Issuer
outstanding on the date hereof and on the date of its actual issuance and delivery, does not cause
the indebtedness of the Issuer to exceed any constitutional or statutory limitation of indebtedness;
and that the opinion printed hereon is a full, true and correct copy of the legal opinion given by
Bond Counsel with reference to the Bonds, dated as of the date of original issuance and delivery
of the Bonds.
This Bond shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any
security or benefit under the Resolution until the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have
been executed by the Bond Registrar by manual signature of one of its authorized representatives.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this Bond to be executed on its behalf
by the signatures of its Mayor and City Administrator.

SECTION 4. GENERAL OBLIGATION IMPROVEMENT BONDS OF 1999
CONSTRUCTION FUND. There is hereby established on the official books and records of the
Issuer a General Obligation Improvement Bonds of 1999 Construction Fund (the Construction
Fund), and the Finance Director shall continue to maintain the Construction Fund until payment
of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the construction of the Projects have been
paid. To the Construction Fund there shall be credited from the proceeds of the Bonds, exclusive
of unused discount and accrued and capitalized interest, an amount equal to the estimated cost of
the Projects and from the Construction Fund there shall be paid all construction costs and
expenses. There shall also be credited to the Construction Fund all special assessments collected
with respect to the Projects, until all costs of the Projects have been fully paid. After payment of
all construction costs, the Construction Fund shall be discontinued and any Bond proceeds
remaining therein may be transferred to the other funds or accounts established for construction
of other improvements instituted pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429. All special
assessments on hand in the Construction Fund when terminated or thereafter received, and any
Bond proceeds not so transferred, shall be credited to the General Obligation Improvement
Bonds of 1999 Bond Fund of the Issuer.
SECTION 5. GENERAL OBLIGATION IMPROVEMENT BONDS OF 1999 BOND FUND.
So long as any of the Bonds are outstanding and any principal of or interest thereon unpaid, the
Finance Director shall maintain a separate debt service fund on the official books and records of
the Issuer to be known as the General Obligation Improvement Bonds of 1999 Bond Fund (the
Bond Fund), and the principal of and interest on the Bonds shall be payable from the Bond Fund.
The Issuer irrevocably appropriates to the Bond Fund (a) any amount in excess of $1,748,375
received from the Purchaser; (b) capitalized interest in the amount of $ ; (c) all
taxes and special assessments levied and collected in accordance with this resolution; and (d) all
other moneys as shall be appropriated by the City Council to the Bond Fund from time to time.
-11-
There are hereby established two accounts in the Bond Fund, designated as the "Debt
Service Account" and the "Surplus Account." There shall initially be deposited into the Debt
Service Account upon the issuance of the Bonds the amount set forth in (a) above. Thereafter,
during each Bond Year (i.e., each twelve month period commencing on December 2 and ending
on the following December 1), as monies are received into the Bond Fund, the Finance Director
shall first deposit such monies into the Debt Service Account until an amount has been
appropriated thereto sufficient to pay all principal and interest due on the Bonds through the end
of the Bond Year. All subsequent monies received in the Bond Fund during the Bond Year shall
be appropriated to the Surplus Account. If at any time the amount on hand in the Debt Service
Account is insufficient for the payment of principal and interest then due, the Finance Director
shall transfer to the Debt Service Account amounts on hand in the Surplus Account to the extent
necessary to cure such deficiency. Investment earnings (and losses) on amounts from time to
time held in the Debt Service Account and Surplus Account shall be credited or charged to said
accounts.
If the aggregate balance in the Bond Fund is at any time insufficient to pay all interest and
principal then due on all Bonds payable therefrom, the payment shall be made from any fund of
the Issuer which is available for that purpose, subject to reimbursement from the Surplus
Account in the Bond Fund when the balance therein is sufficient, and the City Council covenants
and agrees that it will each year levy a sufficient amount of ad valorem taxes to take care of any
accumulated or anticipated deficiency, which levy is not subject to any constitutional or statutory
limitation.
SECTION 6. SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS. The Issuer hereby covenants and agrees that, for the
payment of the cost of the Projects, the Issuer has done or will do and perform all acts and things
necessary for the final and valid levy of special assessments in an amount not less than 20% of
the cost of each of the improvements financed by the Bonds. The Issuer estimates it will levy
special assessments in the aggregate principal amount of $1,130,450. It is estimated that the
principal and interest on such special assessments will be levied and collected in the years and
amounts shown on Appendix I attached hereto. In the event any such assessment shall at any
time be held invalid with respect to any lot or tract of land, due to any error, defect or irregularity
in any action or proceeding taken or to be taken by the Issuer or by the City Councilor by any of
the officers or employees of the Issuer, either in the making of such assessment or in the
performance of any condition precedent thereto, the Issuer hereby covenants and agrees that it
will forthwith do all such further things and take all such further proceedings as shall be required
by law to make such assessment a valid and binding lien upon said property.
SECTION 7. PLEDGE OF TAXING POWERS. For the prompt and full payment of the
principal of and interest on the Bonds as such payments respectively become due, the full faith,
credit and unlimited taxing powers of the Issuer shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. In
order to produce aggregate amounts which, together with the collections of special assessments
and other amounts as set forth in Section 5, will produce amounts not less than 5% in excess of
the amounts needed to meet when due the principal and interest payments on the Bonds, ad
-12-
valorem taxes are hereby levied on all taxable property in the Issuer. The taxes will be levied and
collected in the following years and amounts:
Levy Years
Collection Years
Amount
1999-2013
2000-2014
See attached Levy Computation
The taxes shall be irrepealable as long as any of the Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, provided
that the Issuer reserves the right and power to reduce the tax levies in accordance with the
provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61.
SECTION 8. DEFEASANCE. When all of the Bonds have been discharged as provided in this
Section, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this Resolution to the Holders of the
Bonds shall cease. The Issuer may discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds which are
due on any date by depositing with the Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the
payment thereof in full, or, if any Bond should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be
discharged by depositing with the Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with
interest accrued from the due date to the date of such deposit. The Issuer may also discharge its
obligations with respect to any prepayable Bonds called for redemption on any date when they
are prepayable according to their terms, by depositing with the Registrar on or before that date an
amount equal to the principal, interest and redemption premium, if any, which are then due,
provided that notice of such redemption has been duly given as provided herein. The Issuer may
also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions of
law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow,
with the Registrar or with a bank qualified by law to act as an escrow agent for this purpose, cash
or securities which are authorized by law to be so deposited for such purpose, bearing interest
payable at such times and at such rates and maturing or callable at the holder's option on such
dates as shall be required to pay all principal and interest to become due thereon to maturity or an
earlier designated redemption date. Provided, however, that if such deposit is made more than
ninety days before the maturity date or earlier designated redemption date of the Bonds to be
discharged, the Issuer shall have received a written opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that
such deposit does not adversely affect the exemption of interest on any Bonds from federal
income taxation and a written report of an accountant or investment banking or financial
advisory firm verifying that the deposit is sufficient to pay when due all of the principal and
interest on the Bonds to be discharged on and before their maturity dates or earlier designated
redemption date.
SECTION 9. TAX COVENANTS; ARBITRAGE MATTERS; AND CONTINUING
DISCLOSURE.
9.1. General Tax Covenant. The Issuer agrees with the Holders from time to time of the
Bonds that it will not take, or permit to be taken by any of its officers, employees or agents, any
action that would cause interest on the Bonds to become includable in gross income of the
-13-
recipient under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) and applicable
Treasury Regulations (the Regulations), and agrees to take any and all actions within its powers
to ensure that the interest on the Bonds will not become includable in gross income of the
recipient under the Code and the Regulations. All proceeds of the Bonds deposited in the
Construction Fund will be expended solely for the payment of the costs of the Projects (or other
improvements authorized pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429). All improvements so
financed will be owned and maintained by the Issuer and available for use by members of the
general public on a substantially equal basis. The Issuer shall not enter into any lease,
management contract, use agreement, capacity agreement or other agreement with any non-
governmental person relating to the use of the Projects or security for the payment of the Bonds
which might cause the Bonds to be considered "private activity bonds" or "private loan bonds"
pursuant to Section 141 of the Code.
9.2. Certification. The Mayor and City Administrator, being the officers of the Issuer
charged with the responsibility for issuing the Bonds pursuant to this Resolution, are authorized
and directed to execute and deliver to the Purchaser a certificate in accordance with Section 148
of the Code, and applicable Regulations, stating the facts, estimates and circumstances in
existence on the date of issue and delivery of the Bonds which make it reasonable to expect that
the proceeds of the Bonds will not be used in a manner that would cause the Bonds to be
"arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of the Code and Regulations.
9.3. Arbitrage Rebate Exemption. It is hereby found that the Issuer has general taxing
powers, that no Bond is a "private activity bond" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code,
that 95% or more of the net proceeds of the Bonds are to be used for local governmental
activities of the Issuer, and that the aggregate face amount of all tax-exempt obligations (other
than private activity bonds) issued by the Issuer and all subordinate entities thereof during the
year 1999 is not reasonably expected to exceed $5,000,000. Therefore, pursuant to Section
148(f)( 4 )(D) of the Code, the Issuer shall not be required to comply with the arbitrage rebate
requirements of paragraphs (2) and (3) of Section 148(f) of the Code.
9.4. Qualified Tax-Exempt Obligations. The Issuer hereby designates the Bonds as
"qualified tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code relating to the
disallowance of interest expense for financial institutions, and hereby finds that the reasonably
anticipated amount of qualified tax-exempt obligations (within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3)
of the Code) which will be issued by the Issuer and all subordinate entities during calendar year
1999 does not exceed $10,000,000.
9.5. Reimbursement. The Issuer certifies that the proceeds of the Bonds will not be used
by the Issuer to reimburse itself for any expenditure with respect to the Projects which the Issuer
paid or will have paid more than 60 days prior to the issuance of the Bonds unless, with respect
to such prior expenditures, the Issuer shall have made a declaration of official intent which
complies with the provisions of Section 1.150-2 of the Regulations; provided that a declaration
of official intent shall not be required (i) with respect to certain de minimis expenditures, if any,
-14-
with respect to the Projects meeting the requirements of Section 1.150-2(f)( I) of the Regulations,
or (ii) with respect to "preliminary expenditures" for the Projects as defined in Section 1.150-
2(f)(2) of the Regulations, including engineering or architectural expenses and similar
preparatory expenses, which in the aggregate do not exceed 20% of the "issue price" of the
Bonds.
9.6. Continuing Disclosure. (a) Purpose and Beneficiaries. To provide for the public
availability of certain information relating to the Bonds and the security therefor and to permit
the Purchaser and other participating underwriters in the primary offering of the Bonds to comply
with amendments to Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 C.P.R. ~ 240. 15c2-12), relating to
continuing disclosure (as in effect and interpreted from time to time, the Rule), which will
enhance the marketability of the Bonds, the Issuer hereby makes the following covenants and
agreements for the benefit of the Owners (as hereinafter defined) from time to time of the
Outstanding Bonds. The Issuer is the only obligated person in respect of the Bonds within the
meaning of the Rule for purposes of identifying the entities in respect of which continuing
disclosure must be made. If the Issuer fails to comply with any provisions of this section, any
person aggrieved thereby, including the Owners of any Outstanding Bonds, may take whatever
action at law or in equity may appear necessary or appropriate to enforce performance and
observance of any agreement or covenant contained in this section, including an action for a writ
of mandamus or specific performance. Direct, indirect, consequential and punitive damages shall
not be recoverable for any default hereunder to the extent permitted by law. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall a default under this section constitute
a default under the Bonds or under any other provision of this resolution. As used in this section,
Owner or Bondowner means, in respect of a Bond, the registered owner or owners thereof
appearing in the bond register maintained by the Registrar or any Beneficial Owner (as
hereinafter defined) thereof, if such Beneficial Owner provides to the Registrar evidence of such
beneficial ownership in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Registrar. As used
herein, Beneficial Owner means, in respect of a Bond, any person or entity which (i) has the
power, directly or indirectly, to vote or consent with respect to, or to dispose of ownership of,
such Bond (including persons or entities holding Bonds through nominees, depositories or other
intermediaries), or (ii) is treated as the owner of the Bond for federal income tax purposes.
(b) Information To Be Disclosed. The Issuer will provide, in the manner set forth in
subsection (c) hereof, either directly or indirectly through an agent designated by the Issuer, the
following information at the following times:
(1) on or before 365 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer,
commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 1999, the following financial
information and operating data in respect of the Issuer (the Disclosure Information):
(A) the audited financial statements of the Issuer for such fiscal year,
containing balance sheets as of the end of such fiscal year and a statement of
-15-
operations, changes in fund balances and cash flows for the fiscal year then ended,
showing in comparative form such figures for the preceding fiscal year of the
Issuer, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board as modified in
accordance with the governmental accounting standards promulgated by the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board or as otherwise provided under
Minnesota law, as in effect from time to time, or, if and to the extent such
financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with such generally
accepted accounting principles for reasons beyond the reasonable control of the
Issuer, noting the discrepancies therefrom and the effect thereof, and certified as
to accuracy and completeness in all material respects by the fiscal officer of the
Issuer; and
(B) To the extent not included in the financial statements referred to in
paragraph (A) hereof, the information for such fiscal year or for the period most
recently available of the type contained in the Preliminary Official Statement (i)
under the headings "Tax Base," "Area," "Population," "Municipal Facilities,"
"City Government," "Employee Pension Program," "Residential Development,"
"Industrial Park(s)," "Commercial/Industrial Development," "Building Permits,"
"Financial Institutions," "Education," "Major Employers" and "Largest Taxpayers"
in the Section entitled "The City of Farmington-General Information" and (ii)
under all the headings in the Section entitled "The City of Farmington-Economic
and Financial Information," which information may be unaudited.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, if the audited financial statements are not available by
the date specified, the Issuer shall provide on or before such date unaudited financial statements
in the format required for the audited financial statements as part of the Disclosure Information
and, within 10 days after the receipt thereof, the Issuer shall provide the audited financial
statements. Any or all of the Disclosure Information may be incorporated by reference, if it is
updated as required hereby, from other documents, including official statements, which have
been submitted to each of the repositories hereinafter referred to under subsection (c) or the SEC.
If the document incorporated by reference is a final official statement, it must be available from
the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. The Issuer shall clearly identify in the Disclosure
Information each document so incorporated by reference. If any part of the Disclosure
Information can no longer be generated because the operations of the Issuer have materially
changed or been discontinued, such Disclosure Information need no longer be provided if the
Issuer includes in the Disclosure Information a statement to such effect; provided, however, if
such operations have been replaced by other Issuer operations in respect of which data is not
included in the Disclosure Information and the Issuer determines that certain specified data
regarding such replacement operations would be a Material Fact (as defined in paragraph (2)
hereof), then, from and after such determination, the Disclosure Information shall include such
additional specified data regarding the replacement operations.
-l6-
If the Disclosure Information is changed or this section is amended as permitted by this
paragraph (b)(1) or subsection (d), then the Issuer shall include in the next Disclosure
Information to be delivered hereunder, to the extent necessary, an explanation of the reasons for
the amendment and the effect of any change in the type of financial information or operating data
provided.
(2) In a timely manner, notice of the occurrence of any of the following events
which is a Material Fact (as hereinafter defined):
(A) Principal and interest payment delinquencies;
(B) Non-payment related defaults;
(C) Unscheduled draws on debt service reserves reflecting financial difficulties;
(D) Unscheduled draws on credit enhancements reflecting financial difficulties;

(F) Adverse tax opinions or events affecting the tax-exempt status of the security;
(G) Modifications to rights of security holders;
(H) Bond calls;
(I) Defeasances;
(1) Release, substitution, or sale of property securing repayment of the securities; and
(K) Rating changes.
As used herein, a Material Fact is a fact as to which a substantial likelihood exists that a
reasonably prudent investor would attach importance thereto in deciding to buy, hold or sell a
Bond or, if not disclosed, would significantly alter the total information otherwise available to an
investor from the Preliminary Official Statement, information disclosed hereunder or information
generally available to the public. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a Material Fact is also
an event that would be deemed material for purposes of the purchase, holding or sale of a Bond
within the meaning of applicable federal securities laws, as interpreted at the time of discovery of
the occurrence of the event.
(3) In a timely manner, notice of the occurrence of any of the following events or
conditions:
(A) the failure of the Issuer to provide the Disclosure Information required
under paragraph (b)( 1) at the time specified thereunder;
(B) the amendment or supplementing of this section pursuant to subsection
(d), together with a copy of such amendment or supplement and any explanation
provided by the Issuer under subsection (d)(2);
(C) the termination of the obligations of the Issuer under this section pursuant
to subsection (d);
(D) any change in the accounting principles pursuant to which the financial
statements constituting a portion of the Disclosure Information are prepared; and
(E) any change in the fiscal year of the Issuer.
-17-
(c) Manner of Disclosure. The Issuer agrees to make available the information described
in subsection (b) to the following entities by telecopy, overnight delivery, mail or other means, as
. appropriate:
(1) the information described in paragraph (1) of subsection (b), to each then
nationally recognized municipal securities information repository under the Rule and to
any state information depository then designated or operated by the State of Minnesota as
contemplated by the Rule (the State Depository), if any;
(2) the information described in paragraphs (2) and (3) of subsection (b), to the
Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board and to the State Depository, if any; and
(3) the information described in subsection (b), to any rating agency then
maintaining a rating of the Bonds at the request of the Issuer and, at the expense of such
Bondowner, to any Bondowner who requests in writing such information, at the time of
transmission under paragraphs (1) or (2) of this subsection (c), as the case may be, or, if
such information is transmitted with a subsequent time of release, at the time such
information is to be released.
(d) Term; Amendments; Interpretation.
(1) The covenants of the Issuer in this section shall remain in effect so long as
any Bonds are Outstanding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, the
obligations of the Issuer under this section shall terminate and be without further effect as
of any date on which the Issuer delivers to the Registrar an opinion of Bond Counsel to
the effect that, because of legislative action or final judicial or administrative actions or
proceedings, the failure of the Issuer to comply with the requirements of this section will
not cause participating underwriters in the primary offering of the Bonds to be in
violation of the Rule or other applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, or any statutes or laws successory thereto or amendatory thereof.
(2) This section (and the form and requirements of the Disclosure Information)
may be amended or supplemented by the Issuer from time to time, without notice to
(except as provided in paragraph (c)(3) hereof) or the consent of the Owners of any
Bonds, by a resolution of this Council filed in the office of the recording officer of the
Issuer accompanied by an opinion of Bond Counsel, who may rely on certificates of the
Issuer and others and the opinion may be subject to customary qualifications, to the effect
that: (i) such amendment or supplement (a) is made in connection with a change in
circumstances that arises from a change in law or regulation or a change in the identity,
nature or status of the Issuer or the type of operations conducted by the Issuer, or (b) is
required by, or better complies with, the provisions of paragraph (b)(5) of the Rule; (ii)
this section as so amended or supplemented would have complied with the requirements
of paragraph (b)( 5) of the Rule at the time of the primary offering of the Bonds, giving
-18-
effect to any change in circumstances applicable under clause (i)(a) and assuming that the
Rule as in effect and interpreted at the time of the amendment or supplement was in effect
at the time of the primary offering; and (iii) such amendment or supplement does not
materially impair the interests of the Bondowners under the Rule.
If the Disclosure Information is so amended, the Issuer agrees to provide,
contemporaneously with the effectiveness of such amendment, an explanation of the
reasons for the amendment and the effect, if any, of the change in the type of financial
information or operating data being provided hereunder.
(3) This section is entered into to comply with the continuing disclosure
provisions of the Rule and should be construed so as to satisfy the requirements of
paragraph (b )(5) of the Rule.
SECTION 10. CERTIFICATION OF PROCEEDINGS.
10.1. Registration of Bonds. The City Administrator is hereby authorized and directed to

register (the "Bond Register") in which the Registrar shall provide for the registration of
ownership of Obligations and the registration of transfers and exchanges of Obligations
entitled to be registered, transferred or exchanged. The term "Holder" or "Bondholder" as
used herein shall mean the person (whether a natural person, corporation, association,
partnership, trust, governmental unit, or other legal entity) in whose name an Obligation
is registered in the Bond Register.
(b) Transfer of Obligations. Upon surrender for transfer of any Obligation duly
endorsed by the Holder thereof or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in
form satisfactory to the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or by an attorney
duly authorized by the Holder in writing, the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Obligations of a
like aggregate principal amount and maturity, as requested by the transferor.
(c) Exchange of Obligations. At the option of the Holder of any Obligation in a
denomination greater than $5,000, such Obligation may be exchanged for other
Obligations of authorized denominations, of the same maturity and a like aggregate
principal amount, upon surrender of the Obligation to be exchanged at the office of the
Registrar. Whenever any Obligations are so surrendered for exchange the Issuer shall
execute and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver the Obligations which the
Bondholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
-3-
(d) Cancellation. All Obligations surrendered for payment, transfer or exchange
shall be promptly canceled by the Registrar and thereafter disposed of. The Registrar
shall furnish the Issuer at least once each year a certificate setting forth the principal
amounts and numbers of Obligations canceled and destroyed.
(e) Improper or Unauthorized Transfer. When any Obligation is presented to the
Registrar for transfer, the Registrar may refuse to transfer the same until it is satisfied that
the endorsement on such Obligation or separate instrument of transfer is valid and
genuine and that the requested transfer is legally authorized. The Registrar shall incur no
liability for the refusal, in good faith, to make transfers which it, in its judgment, deems
improper or unauthorized.
(f) Persons Deemed Owners. The Issuer and the Registrar may treat the person in
whose name any Obligation is at any time registered in the Bond Register as the absolute
owner of the Obligation, whether the Obligation shall be overdue or not, for the purpose
of receiving payment of or on account of, the principal of and (subject to Section 2.3)
interest on the Obligation and for all other purposes; and all payments made to or upon
the order of such Holder shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability
upon Obligation to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.

exchange of Obligations, but the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay
any tax, fee or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to any transfer
or exchange.
(h) Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Obligations. In case any Obligation
shall become mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Registrar shall deliver a new
Obligation of like amount, number, maturity date and tenor in exchange and substitution
for and upon cancellation of any such mutilated Obligation or in lieu of and in
substitution for any Obligation destroyed, stolen or lost, upon the payment of the
reasonable expenses and charges of the Registrar in connection therewith; and, in the case
of an Obligation destroyed, stolen or lost, upon filing with the Registrar of evidence
satisfactory to it that the Obligation was destroyed, stolen or lost, and of the ownership
thereof, and upon furnishing to the Registrar of an appropriate bond or indemnity in form,
substance and amount satisfactory to it, in which both the Issuer and the Registrar shall be
named as obligees. All Obligations so surrendered to the Registrar shall be canceled by it
and evidence of such cancellation shall be given to the Issuer. If the mutilated, destroyed,
stolen or lost Obligation has already matured or been called for redemption in accordance
with its terms it shall not be necessary to issue a new Obligation prior to payment.
. (i) Authenticating: Agent. The Registrar is hereby designated authenticating agent
for the Obligations, within the meaning of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.55,
Subdivision 1, as amended.
-4-
U) Valid Obligations. All Obligations issued upon any transfer or exchange of
Obligations shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and
entitled to the same benefits under this Resolution as the Obligations surrendered upon
such transfer or exchange.
2.7. Execution, Authentication and Delivery. The Obligations shall be prepared under
the direction of the Administrator and shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the signatures
of the Mayor and the Administrator, provided that the signatures may be printed, engraved or
lithographed facsimiles of the originals. In case any officer whose signature or a facsimile of
whose signature shall appear on the Obligations shall cease to be such officer before the delivery
of any Obligation, such signature or facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all
purposes, the same as if he had remained in office until delivery. Notwithstanding such
execution, no Obligation shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or entitled to any security or
benefit under this Resolution unless and until a certificate of authentication on the Obligation has
been duly executed by the manual signature of an authorized representative of the Registrar.
Certificates of authentication on different Obligations need not be signed by the same
representative. The executed certificate of authentication on each Obligation shall be conclusive
evidence that it has been authenticated and delivered under this Resolution. When the
Obligations have been prepared, executed and authenticated, the Administrator shall cause them
to be delivered to the Purchaser upon payment of the purchase price in accordance with the
contract of sale heretofore executed, and the Purchaser shall not be obligated to see to the
application of the purchase price.
2.8. Securities Depositorv. (a) For purposes of this section the following terms shall
have the following meanings:
"Beneficial Owner" shall mean, whenever used with respect to an Obligation, the person
in whose name such Obligation is recorded as the beneficial owner of such Obligation by a
Participant on the records of such Participant, or such person's subrogee.
"Cede & Co." shall mean Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, and any successor nominee
of DTC with respect to the Obligations.
"DTC" shall mean The Depository Trust Company of New York, New York.
"Participant" shall mean any broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution for which
DTC holds Obligations as securities depository.
"Representation Letter" shall mean the Representation Letter pursuant to which the sender
agrees to comply with DTC's Operational Arrangements.
(b) The Obligations shall be initially issued as separately authenticated fully registered
obligations, and one Obligation shall be issued in the principal amount of each stated maturity of
-5-
the Obligations. Upon initial issuance, the ownership of such Obligations shall be registered in
the bond register in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. The Registrar and the Issuer
may treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Obligations registered in
its name for the purposes of payment of the principal of or interest on the Obligations, selecting
the Obligations or portions thereof to be redeemed, if any, giving any notice permitted or
required to be given to registered owners of Obligations under this resolution, registering the
transfer of Obligations, and for all other purposes whatsoever; and neither the Registrar nor the
Issuer shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall
have any responsibility or obligation to any Participant, any person claiming a beneficial
ownership interest in the Obligations under or through DTC or any Participant, or any other
person which is not shown on the bond register as being a registered owner of any Obligations,
with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or any Participant, with respect to
the payment by DTC or any Participant of any amount with respect to the principal of or interest
on the Obligations, with respect to any notice which is permitted or required to be given to
owners of Obligations under this resolution, with respect to the selection by DTC or any
Participant of any person to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the
Obligations, or with respect to any consent given or other action taken by DTC as registered
owner of the Obligations. So long as any Obligation is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as
nominee of DTC, the Registrar shall pay all principal of and interest on such Obligation, and
shall give all notices with respect to such Obligation, only to Cede & Co. in accordance with
DTC's Operational Arrangements, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully
satisfy and discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the principal of and interest on the
Obligations to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No person other than DTC shall receive an
authenticated Obligation for each separate stated maturity evidencing the obligation of the Issuer
to make payments of principal and interest. Upon delivery by DTC to the Registrar of written
notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co.,
the Obligations will be transferable to such new nominee in accordance with paragraph (e)
hereof.
(c) In the event the Issuer determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial
Owners that they be able to obtain Obligations in the form of bond certificates, the Issuer may
notify DTC and the Registrar, whereupon DTC shall notify the Participants of the availability
through DTC of Obligations in the form of certificates. In such event, the Obligations will be
transferable in accordance with paragraph (e) hereof. DTC may determine to discontinue
providing its services with respect to the Obligations at any time by giving notice to the Issuer
and the Registrar and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law.
In such event the Obligations will be transferable in accordance with paragraph (e) hereof.
(d) The execution and delivery of the Representation Letter to DTC by the Mayor or
Administrator, if not previously filed with DTC, is hereby authorized and directed.
(e) In the event that any transfer or exchange of Obligations is permitted under paragraph
(b) or (c) hereof, such transfer or exchange shall be accomplished upon receipt by the Registrar
-6-
of the Obligations to be transferred or exchanged and appropriate instruments of transfer to the
permitted transferee in accordance with the provisions of this resolution. In the event
Obligations in the form of certificates are issued to owners other than Cede & Co., its successor
as nominee for DTC as owner of all the Obligations, or another securities depository as owner of
all the Obligations, the provisions of this resolution shall also apply to all matters relating
thereto, including, without limitation, the printing of such Obligations in the form of bond
certificates and the method of payment of principal of and interest on such Obligations in the
form of bond certificates.

therein is sufficient, and the City Council covenants and agrees that it will each year levy a

provided that the Issuer reserves the right and power to reduce the tax levies in accordance with
the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61.
SECTION 6. DEFEASANCE. When all of the Obligations have been discharged as provided in
this Section, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this Resolution to the Holders of
the Obligations shall cease. The Issuer may discharge its obligations with respect to any
Obligations which are due on any date by depositing with the Registrar on or before that date a
sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full, or, if any Obligation should not be paid when due,
it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Registrar a sum sufficient for the
payment thereof in full with interest accrued from the due date to the date of such deposit. The
Issuer may also discharge its obligations with respect to any prepayable Obligations called for
redemption on any date when they are prepayable according to their terms, by depositing with the
Registrar on or before that date an amount equal to the principal, interest and redemption
premium, if any, which are then due, provided that notice of such redemption has been duly
given as provided herein. The Issuer may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect

earlier designated redemption date of the Obligations to be discharged, the Issuer shall have
received a written opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such deposit does not adversely
affect the exemption of interest on any Obligations from federal income taxation and a written
report of an accountant or investment banking or financial advisory firm verifying that the
deposit is sufficient to pay when due all of the principal and interest on the Obligations to be
discharged on and before their maturity dates or earlier designated redemption date.
SECTION 7. TAX COVENANTS; ARBITRAGE MATTERS AND CONTINUING
DISCLOSURE.
7.1. General Tax Covenant. The Issuer agrees with the Holders from time to time of the
Obligations that it will not take, or permit to be taken by any of its officers, employees or agents,
any action that would cause interest on the Obligations to become includable in gross income of
the recipient under the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations (the Regulations), and agrees
to take any and all actions within its powers to ensure that the interest on the Obligations will not
become includable in gross income of the recipient under the Code and the Regulations. All
proceeds of the Obligations will be expended solely for the payment of the costs of acquisition
and installation of capital equipment to be owned and maintained by the Issuer and used in the
Issuer's general governmental operations. The Issuer shall not enter into any lease, management
contract, use agreement or other agreement with any non-governmental person relating to the use
-12-
of the capital equipment or security for the payment of the Obligations which might cause the
Obligations to be considered "private activity bonds" or "private loan bonds" pursuant to Section
141 of the Code.
7.2. Certification. The Mayor and Administrator being the officers of the Issuer charged
with the responsibility for issuing the Obligations pursuant to this Resolution, are authorized and
directed to execute and deliver to the Purchaser a certificate in accordance with the provisions of
Section 148 of the Code, and applicable Regulations, stating the facts, estimates and
circumstances in existence on the date of issue and delivery of the Obligations which make it
reasonable to expect that the proceeds of the Obligations will not be used in a manner that would
cause the Obligations to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of the Code and Regulations.
7.3. Arbitrage Rebate Exemption. It is hereby found that the Issuer has general taxing
powers, that no Bond is a "private activity bond" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code,
that 95% or more of the net proceeds of the Bonds are to be used for local governmental
activities of the Issuer, and that the aggregate face amount of all tax-exempt obligations (other
than private activity bonds) issued by the Issuer and all subordinate entities thereof during the
year 1999 is not reasonably expected to exceed $5,000,000. Therefore, pursuant to the
provisions of Section 148(f)( 4 )(D) of the Code, the Issuer shall not be required to comply with
the arbitrage rebate requirements of paragraphs (2) and (3) of Section 148(f) of the Code.
7.4. Qualified Tax-Exempt Obligations. The Issuer hereby designates the Obligations as
"qualified tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code relating to the
disallowance of interest expense for financial institutions, and hereby finds that the reasonably
anticipated amount of qualified tax-exempt obligations (within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3)
of the Code) which will be issued by the Issuer and all subordinate entities during calendar year
1999 does not exceed $10,000,000.
7.5. Reimbursement. The Issuer certifies that the proceeds of the Obligations will not be
used by the Issuer to reimburse itself for any expenditure with respect to the capital equipment
which the Issuer paid or will have paid more than 60 days prior to the issuance of the Obligations
unless, with respect to such prior expenditures, the Issuer shall have made a declaration of
official intent which complies with the provisions of Section 1.150-2 of the Regulations;
provided that a declaration of official intent shall not be required (i) with respect to certain de
minimis expenditures, if any, with respect to the capital equipment meeting the requirements of
Section 1. 150-2(f)(1) of the Regulations, or (ii) with respect to "preliminary expenditures" for the
capital equipment as defined in Section 1.150-2(f)(2) of the Regulations, including engineering
or architectural expenses and similar preparatory expenses, which in the aggregate do not exceed
20% of the "issue price" of the Obligations.
7.6. Continuing Disclosure. The SEC has promulgated certain amendments to Rule 15c2-
12 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 C.P.R. S 240.15c2-l2) (the Rule) that make it
unlawful for an underwriter to participate in the primary offering of municipal securities in a
-13-
principal amount of $1,000,000 or more unless, before submitting a bid or entering into a
purchase contract for the Obligations, it has reasonably determined that the Issuer or an obligated
person has undertaken in writing for the benefit of the bondholders to provide certain disclosure
information to prescribed information repositories on a continuing basis or unless and to the
extent the offering is exempt from the requirements of the Rule. The principal amount of the
Obligations is less than $1,000,000. The Issuer hereby represents that it has not issued within the
six months before the date of issuance of the Obligations, and that it reasonably expects that it
will not issue within six months after the date of issuance of the Obligations, other securities of
the Issuer of substantially the same security and providing financing for the same general purpose
or purposes as the Obligations. Consequently, this Council hereby finds that the Rule is
inapplicable to the Obligations, because the aggregate principal amount of the Obligations and
any other securities required to be integrated with the Obligations thereunder is less than
$1,000,000. Therefore, the Issuer will not enter into any undertaking to provide continuing
disclosure of any kind with respect to the Obligations.
SECTION 8. CERTIFICATION OF PROCEEDINGS.
8.1. Registration of Obligations. The Administrator is hereby authorized and directed to
file a certified copy of this resolution with the Dakota County Public Service and Revenue
Division Director and obtain a certificate that the Obligations have been duly entered upon the
Director's bond register and the tax required by law has been levied.
8.2. Authentication of Transcript. The officers of the Issuer are hereby authorized and
directed to prepare and furnish to the Purchaser and to Dorsey & Whitney LLP, Bond Counsel,
certified copies of all proceedings and records relating to the Obligations and such other
affidavits, certificates and information as may be required to show the facts relating to the
legality and marketability of the Obligations, as the same appear from the books and records in
their custody and control or as otherwise known to them, and all such certified copies, affidavits
and certificates, including any heretofore furnished, shall be deemed representations of the Issuer
as to the correctness of all statements contained therein.
8.3. Preliminary Official Statement. The Preliminary Official Statement relating to the
Obligations, dated June 2, 1999, prepared and distributed by Juran & Moody is hereby approved.
Juran & Moody is hereby authorized on behalf of the Issuer to prepare and deliver to the
Purchaser within seven business days from the date hereof, a supplement to the Official
Statement listing the offering price, the interest rates, selling compensation, delivery date, the
underwriters and such other information relating to the Obligations required to be included in the
Official Statement by Rule l5c2-12 adopted by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. The officers of the Issuer are hereby authorized and directed to execute such certificates as
may be appropriate concerning the accuracy, completeness and sufficiency of the Official
Statement.
