would be open land. Ms. Smick replied that it would. Jack Benedict, developer,
stated that as many trees as possible would be saved and the townhomes would be at
least 100 feet from pilot Knob Road. Resident Judy Bryant asked which curves woul
be planted with pine trees. Ms. Smick indicated them on the plat. Interim Engine

issued in March. She also stated that the valuation of properties being constructed
was up.
10. Legislative Update
Administrator Erar informed Council that he had attended a conference to discuss
various legislative issues on March 20th. He noted that of the 8 legislators
invited to attend, only 2 were present. Various information on current legislative
issues had been forwarded with the agenda packets for Council review.
11. MOTION by Fitch, second by Gamer to set the public hearing for the Main Street
Improvement Project for May 27, 1997 at 7:00 P.M. in the Farmington Library
conference room. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
12. CSAH 31 Project Update
Administrator Erar presented the most recent information on construction of pilot
Knob Road, stating he felt Council should begin considering financing options.
Discussion took place concerning the impact of assessing the project versus a City
wide tax levy. It was noted that the assessment area would be a one half mile
radius of the new road alignment. Mr. Erar informed Council the County was moving
forward with right of way acquisition and that noise mitigation legislation appeared
to have a fair chance of passage. If the mitigation exemption was approved,
construction would probably begin in late Fall of 1997 or early 1998.
13. Bill Peterson from the Assessor's Office informed Council that 10 residents had
presented their property valuation concerns. He requested Council close the public
hearing. MOTION by Gamer, second by Ristow to close the 1997 Annual Board of
Equalization hearing. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
14. Set Park Improvement Workshop Date/Approve CIP - Other Projects/Parks (Item 5k)
Administrator Erar explained that Council's decision to deny the Park referendum did
not remove those improvements/projects from the CIP. Member Fitch stated that it
was important to establish a policy on park improvement funding now in order to
avoid future problems. Member Cordes stated she felt it was important to upgrade
the existing parks. With the projects' inclusion in the CIP, the Council would
review each project individually and determine the best financing mechanism at that
time. It was Council consensus to set the Parks Improvement Project workshop for
Wednesday, April 16, 1997 at 6:30 P.M.. Approval of the remaining portions of the
CIP was tabled until after the workshop.
15. General Obligation Revenue Bonds - Water Reservoir
Finance Director Roland informed Council that the Water Board had authorized the
sale of revenue bonds to finance the water reservoir construction at its March 24th
meeting. The sale date has been set for April 21st. Ms. Roland noted that the
Water Board had saved funds from water usage fees over a period of time to finance
this improvement. MOTION by Gamer, second by Cordes to adopt RESOLUTION NO. R42-97
authorizing the sale of $2.14 million in General Obligation Water Revenue Bonds on
April 21, 1997. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
16. Sex Offender Notification Policy
Police Chief Siebenaler explained the notification policy and the different levels
of notification based on the offender's likelihood of reoffending. The policy had
been drafted by POST and was being adopted in many communities. Mr. Siebenaler
stressed that, at this time, the City has no information regarding any sex offenders
to be released within the City. It was requested that an article be placed in the
Farmington Update explaining the policy to residents. MOTION by Gamer, second by
Strachan to adopt the Sex Offender Notification Policy as presented. APIF, MOTION
CARRIED.
17. Joint City Participation in Trout Stream Study
Interim Engineer Mann explained that the City of Lakeville has requested Farmington
participation in this study. He informed Council that several sections of the
Vermillion River and its tributaries have been designated as trout streams by the
Department of Natural Resources. This would have the significant impact of
restricting development in these areas. The purpose of the study is to receive an
unbiased determination as to whether these streams are actually trout streams. The
City's share of participating in this study, to be conducted by Barr Engineering
Company, would be funded through the Stormwater Utility Fund. MOTION by Cordes,
second by Gamer to approve participation in the study. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
18. Amend Ordinance - Add Variance Appeal Process
Planning Coordinator Smick explained that the ordinance would provide a means of
appeal for citizens whose variance requests had been denied by the Zoning Board of
Adjustment. Discussion focused on the strict set of criteria which must be met in
order to receive a variance, that appeals would only be heard if there was a
question of fact, and the need to protect the authority of the Planning Commission
(Board of Adjustment). A fee has not been established at this time. Council
determined to wait approximately 6 months before doing so in order to see what
effect the appeal process would have. MOTION by Fitch, second by Gamer to adopt
ORDINANCE NO. 097-393 approving the variance appeal process amendment. APIF, MOTION
CARRIED.
19. Roundtable
Councilmember Gamer: Attended a LMC meeting which was very informative.
Mayor Ristow: Thanked the residents in the audience for their participation in
the meeting.
Administrator Erar: Clarified that the May 27th meeting to discuss Main Street was
a public hearing, not an informational meeting.
20. MOTION by Fitch, second by Gamer to adjourn at 8:57 P.M.. APIF, MOTION
CARRIED.

PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, Minnesota's forests have historically been a significant attraction because of their
usefulness and their beauty; and
WHEREAS, Trees are an increasingly vital resource in Minnesota today, enriching our lives by purifying
the air; conserving soil, water and energy; creating jobs through a large forest products industry; serving
as recreational settings; providing habitat for wildlife of all kinds; and creating beautiful landscapes to
make our communities more livable; and
WHEREAS, Human activities such as construction damage, pollution, and neglect, as well as climatic
extremes, disease and insects threaten our trees, creating the need for concerted action to ensure the
future of Farmington's and rural forests in our County, State and Nation; and
WHEREAS, Individuals can act locally to improve the environment by planting trees and ensuring that
these trees are protected and receive proper care and maintenance in the years ahead; and
WHEREAS, Each year the last Friday in April is set aside as Arbor Day, and the month of May is set
aside as Arbor Month, and all residents of Farmington are requested to pay special tribute to the vital
natural resource that our trees represent and dedicate themselves to the continued health of our
community's trees and wooded areas.

Adopt Resolution Accepting Bids
and Awarding Contract to Purchase
Rapid Rail Box Replacement.
DATE:
April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
Sealed bids were opened on Friday, April II for the Rapid Rail box replacement.
DISCUSSION
Bids were requested for a Rapid Rail box replacement. The City received one bid which was opened and
reviewed by staff. The company providing a bid for this equipment is as follows:
I. MacQueen Equipment
$66,950 plus tax
Total bid $71,301.15
The original Rapid Rail Box was purchased in 1991. At that time only two bids were received, one of
which was rejected because it did not meet specifications. This specialized equipment is only available
from limited suppliers. Two additional companies contacted the Solid Waste Supervisor about the
upcoming purchase, however no bids were received from either of them.
BUDGET IMPACT
Funds were budgeted for this purchase in 1997. The difference in the budgeted amount of $67,000 and
bid price of $71,301.75 is $4,301.75. These additional funds are available through savings in other areas
of the approved Solid Waste Fund Budget, generated primarily from a grant which the City will receive to
purchase recycling containers.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the attached resolution approving the purchase of the Rapid Rail box replacement with dollars as
described above.

SUBJECT: Appointment Recommendation
City Engineer
DATE: April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
.
As Council is aware, the engineering firm of Boonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik and Associates has
been fulfilling the role of City Engineer and Assistant City Engineer over the last several months.
Mr. Lee Mann has been serving in the role of Interim Assistant City Engineer, and has essentially
been managing the City's Engineering Division, overseeing pending projects and working with
private development projects. Mr. Mann's performance in this capacity has been commendable.
DISCUSSION
Accordingly, after a thorough review of staffmg alternatives relative to replacing both these
engineering positions, I am recommending that these positions be filled by Mr. Lee Mann as City
Engineer, supplemented by other consulting staff under a contract outsourcing agreement. Mr.
Mann is a registered civil engineer, and has worked on numerous municipal engineering projects
over the last six years. Lee's performance over the last several months has proven to be of
tremendous benefit to the City in resolving a number of outstanding engineering project
management issues.
Under this agreement, Mr. Mann would serve as the City Engineer as a member of the City's
management team, and oversee the City's Engineering Division, and Public Works\Utilities
Division. Mr. Mann would have the same responsibilities as a regular full-time Department
Head, with normal management oversight and supervisory responsibilities, and would as any
other department director report to the City Administrator. Mr. Glenn Cook would continue to
serve as principal engineering consultant.
Should this arrangement not fulfill the City's needs over time, a thirty (30) day notice would
terminate this relationship, and the City would be free to fill the existing positions without any
further commitments.
Other communities such as Apple Valley, Cottage Grove, New Hope, Orono have similar
engineering arrangements wherein they are able to utilize the vast resources of a consulting firm,
without any legally binding entanglements.

Appointment Recommendation - City Engineer
Page 2
BUDGET IMP ACT
The cost of this arrangement is well within the regular budgeted salaries for these two positions,
and has been negotiated at a fixed rate of $7,000 per month. Accordingly, all general engineering
time, regardless of hours worked, will be at this set rate. An analysis of the hours spent on
engineering and supervision of public works activities makes this an exceptionally good value for
the City. With respect to private and public engineering projects fees, the City will experience no
increase in costs as engineering fees are charged directly against respective projects.
Council, however, should be aware that in past years, project administration and engineering fees
which were generated by staff will more than likely be charged out to Boonestroo as needed and
will minimize generated project income.
As Council will recall, the 1996 Budget experienced a significant shortfall due to the fact that a
number of public projects were never brought forward on time, with a resulting loss in City
revenues. In review of past years, this type of income was not accurately reported in financial
statements suggesting a somewhat inflated level of project income.O
In light of the tremendous growth in the City and the need to provide competent, responsive and
quality engineering services, the generation of income (retained earnings) from projects should
be viewed as secondary at this time. It is my belief that the City's primary mission, as a public
entity, should be to provide engineering services in as cost-effective, process efficient manner as
possible.
RECOMMENDA nON
Approve the appointment of Mr. Lee Mann as City Engineer under a contract agreement with the
firm of Boonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik and Associates effective May 16, 1997.

SUBJECT: Final 1997 Budget Document
DATE:
April 21, 1997
The City of Farmington adopted its 1997 budget on December 16, 1996, and certified it to Dakota
County and the State of Minnesota on December 27, 1997. The 1997 Budget Document was
recently finalized and submitted to the National Government Finance Officers Association for their
.. consideration. A copy of this final document will be provided to each council member at the
meeting on April 21, 1997.
DISCUSSION
As stated in the Budget message, the Adopted 1997 Budget includes an increase in the property
tax rate from 34.769 in 1996 to 34.903 percent in 1997. This one one thousandth of a percent
increase resulted from a final Adjusted Tax Capacity Value decrease of $17,108 from the value
provided by the County to the City for its computations. (To compute the levy rate provided to
Council for the budget adoption process, the City relies on the best numbers available at the time
the Budget document is prepared. The County tax capacity valuation figures may change without
notice. )
This very slight increase should have no real effect on individual property owners. The total Tax
Capacity Rate for Farmington (including city, county and school district) for 1997 is 1.24411 as
compared to the 1996 rate of 1.31735, a total decrease of 7.324 percent.

SUBJECT:
Public Hearing for TIP District # 13
DATE:
April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
The creation of a Renewal and Renovation District to assist the Eagles Club in the acquisition of a site
for the construction of their new facility requires that Council hold a public hearing to facilitate the use
of tax increment financing pursuant to state law. In addition, the adoption of a tax increment financing
plan is also necessary to formally articulate the parameters of the financial plan which will be utilized in
this project.
DISCUSSION
Mr. Thomas Truszinski, City financial advisor from Juran & Moody, will be present to review the project
plan and financial particulars underwriting the assistance to the Eagles Club.
BUDGET IMPACT
As indicated earlier, the use of tax increment financing may result in a local government penalty to the
City. However, in light of the fact, that this district will be closed once adequate increment is generated
equivalent to the commitment made by the HRA, the penalty, as presented, is relatively minimal. This
information will be formally presented to Council at the April 21, 1997 meeting.
ACTION REOUESTED
1) Open the Public Hearing for the purpose of receiving comments relative to the establishment of Tax
Increment Financing District No. 13 for the purpose of assisting the Eagles Club in site acquisition. The
level of financial assistance committed to by the Farmington HRA was in an amount not to exceed
$100,000.
2) Adopt the attached resolution authorizing the establishment of Tax Increment Financing District No.
13 and adopting a Tax Increment Financing plan related to assisting the developer (Eagles Club) in site
acquisition.

A RESOLUTION APPROVING ESTABLISHMENT OF
T AX INCREMENT FINANCING (RENEvV AL AND
RENOVATION) DISTRICT NO. 13 AND APPROVING
AND ADOPTING A TAX INCREMENT FINANCING
PLAN RELATING THERETO
WHEREAS, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of
Farmington, Minnesota (the "HRA"), with the approval of the City of Farmington,
Minnesota (the "City"), has heretofore established the Farmington Redevelopment
Project Area (the "Project Area") within the City and has approved a
Redevelopment Plan for the Project Area (the "Redevelopment Plan");
WHEREAS, to carry out the Redevelopment Plan, the HRA has now
prepared, approved and submitted to the City a Tax Increment Financing Plan (the
"Tax Increment Plan") pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.174 to 469.179,
for Tax Increment Financing (Renewal and Renovation) District No. 13 (the "TIF
District") within the Project Area;
WHEREAS, the HRA has submitted its estimate of the fiscal and economic
implications of the proposed TIP District to the County Board of Commissioners and
the school board of the local school district, all in accordance with the requirements
of Section 469.175, subdivision 2;
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City (the "Council") on the date hereof
held a public hearing regarding approval of the Tax Increment Plan, for which
hearing notice was published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City not
less than 10 or more than 30 days prior to the date hereof, including a map of the
Project Area and TIP District;
WHEREAS, the City has performed all actions required bv law to be
performed prior to the consideration of the Tax Increment Plan and the
establishment of the TIF District.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF FARMINGTON, MINNESOTA, as follows:
1. On the basis of the information presented to the Council at meetings
regarding establishment of the TIF District, information included in the Tax
-2-
Increment Plan, information provided at the public hearing and at other Council
meetings, the Council hereby finds and determines:
(a) that the TIF District qualifies as an renewal and renovation district
as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subd. lOa;
(b) that the Tax Increment Plan conforms to the general plan for the
development or redevelopment of the City as a whole;
(c) that the Tax Increment Plan will afford maximum opportunity,
consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the development
or redevelopment of the Project Area by private enterprise;
(d) that the Eagles Club development proposed to be assisted as
described in the Tax Increment Plan would not, in the opinion of the City,
reasonably be expected to occur within the reasonably foreseeable future solely
through private investment; and
(e) that, based on a comparative analysis of estimated market values
both with and without the establishment of the TIF District and the use of tax
increment assistance, the increase in estimated market value of the
development site, less the present value of the projected tax increments for
the duration of the TIF District as permitted by the Tax Increment Plan,
exceeds the market value of the development site expected to occur without
the use of tax increment financing.
The reasons and supporting evidence for the foregoing findings are set forth
in Section J of the Tax Increment Plan, and Exhibits A and B thereto, which findings
and exhibits are incorporated herein by reference.
2. Based upon the foregoing, Tax Increment Financing (Renewal and
Renovation) District No. 13 within the Project Area is hereby established and the
Tax Increment Plan is hereby approved and adopted by the City in substantially the
form on file with the City on this date.
3. The City Administrator is authorized and directed to take all action on
behalf of the City, subject to such approval of the Council as is required by law, to
implement the Tax Increment Plan.
4. The City Administrator is authorized and directed to request the County
Auditor to certify the original tax capacity value of the real property within the TIF
District and the original tax capacity rate for the TIF District.
,..,
-J-
5. The City Administrator is also authorized and directed to file a copy of the
Tax Increment Plan with the Commissioner of Revenue, as required by Minnesota
Statutes, Section 469.175, subd. 2.

Section 469.175, subdivision 1 thereof.
Section C
Statement of Objectives
See Section III, C of the Redevelopment Plan for the Redevelopment
Project. The development to be assisted pursuant to this TIF Plan will further the
specific objectives of removing substandard and blighted structures in the central
business district of the City and promoting new development on the property.
Section D
Development Activities To Take Place Within Redevelopment
Project
See Section III, D and Section III, E of the Redevelopment Plan for a
general description of development activities expected to take place within the
Project Area. The specific activities to assisted by this TIF Plan are described below in
Section I of this TIF Plan. No contracts have been entered into as of the date of this
TIF Plan with respect to the specific activities to assisted by this TIF Plan.
Section E
Designation of Tax Increment Financing District as a Renewal and
Renovation District
Renewal and renovation districts are a type of tax increment financing
district in which the following conditions exist and are reasonably distributed
throughout the district: Parcels comprising at least 70% of the area of the district are
occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or other improvements; (ii) 20% of the
buildings are structurally substandard; and (iii) 30% of the other buildings require
substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as:
inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding
of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete buildings not
suitable for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health,
safety, and general well-being of the community.
For districts consisting of two more noncontiguous areas, each area
must individually qualify under the provisions listed above, as well as the entire
area must also qualify as a whole.
"Structurally substandard" is defined as buildings containing defects or
deficiencies in structural elements, essential utilities and facilities, light and
ventilation, fire protection (including egress), layout and condition of interior
partitions, or similar factors. A building is not structurally substandard if it is in
compliance with the building code applicable to a new building, or could be
modified to satisfy the existing code at a cost of less than 15% of the cost of
constructing a new structure of the same size and type.
The Authority may find that a building is structurally substandard
without an interior inspection or an independent expert appraisal, if there exists
"reasonably available evidence" to support this conclusion. Such evidence may
include size, type, and age of the building, the average cost of plumbing, electrical, or
structural repairs, or other similar information.
-2-
At least 90 percent of the tax increment derived from the TIF District
must be used to finance the cost of correcting conditions that allow designation as a
renewal and renovation district. These costs include acquiring properties
containing structurally substandard buildings or improvements, acquiring adjacent
parcels necessary to provide a site of sufficient size to permit development,
demolition of structures, clearing of land, and installation of utilities, roads,
sidewalks, and parking facilities for the site. The allocated administrative expenses
of the Authority may be included in the qualifying costs.
Section F
Duration of the TIF District
Renewal and Renovation districts may remain in existence 15 years
from the date of receipt of the first tax increment. Modifications of this plan (see
Section AA) shall not generally extend this limitation.
This TIF Plan assumes the Authority will receive increment through
the year 2013, which is within the foregoing limitation. However, the TIF district
will be decertified prior to that time if all qualifying public costs have been
reimbursed to the developer of the site. The Authority shall retain all increment
until such qualifying costs have been reimbursed.
In addition to the foregoing, no tax increments shall be paid to the
Authority from the TIF District after three years from the date of certification unless
within that time period:
(1) bonds have been issued in aid of the redevelopment project (except
revenue bonds issued pursuant to M.s. Sections 469.152 to 469.165);
(2) the Authority has acquired property within the TIF District; or
(3) the Authority has constructed or caused to be constructed public
improvements within the TIF District.
Section G Property to be Included in the TIF District
The TIF District consists of a single parcel of land located within the
Project Area. The boundaries and area encompassed by the TIF District are described
below:
Parcel ID Number
14-77000-030- 25
-3-
Generally this parcel is located at 3rd Street & Main in the City. Total square footage
of the site is approximately 28,979 square feet.
Section H Property to be Acquired in the TIF District
The Authority may acquire and sell any or all of the property located
within the TIF District; however, the Authority does not anticipate acquiring any
such property directly but will assist the developer in the acquisition of the site.
Section I
Specific Development Expected to Occur Within the TIF District
Development expected to occur within the TIF District consists of
demolition/ removal of the two substandard buildings on the site (being
approximately 4,059 square feet and 2,376 square feet respectively), the preparation of
the site for building and the installation on the site of utility, road, landscaping,
parking and sidewalk improvements. The specific private development to be
assisted is the construction of an approximately 8,300 square foot club facility for the
Eagles social organization.
It is anticipated the club facility will be fully constructed in 1997 and be
100% assessed and on the tax rolls as of January 2, 1998 for taxes payable in 1999. At
the time this document was prepared there were no signed construction contracts
with regards to the above described development.
Section J
Findings and Need for Tax Increment Financing
In establishing the TIF District, the Authority and the City make the
following findings:
(1) The TIF District qualifies as a Renewal and Renovation District in that:
(i) the TIF District consists of a single parcel, (ii) both buildings located
on the site are structurally substandard in that they are not in
compliance with the building code applicable to new structures of
similar type and size and cannot be modified to satisfy the building
code at a cost of less than 15% of the cost of constructing new buildings
of similar size and type. See Exhibit A hereto for additional supporting
information.
(2) The proposed development, in the opinion of the Authority and the
City, would not reasonably be expected to occur solely through private
investment within the reasonably foreseeable future, and the increased
market value of the site that could reasonably be expected to occur
without the use of tax increment would be less than the increase in
market value estimated to result from the proposed development after
-4-
subtracting the present value of the projected tax increments for the
maximum duration of the TIF District permitted by the TIF Plan;
The reasons and facts supporting this finding are that the Eagles
have represented to the Authority and the City that the proposed
development would not be feasible without the assistance of tax
. increment financing. See Exhibit B hereto, a letter from the
Eagles certifying as to this finding.
The present market value of the site is estimated to be
approximately $42,200. After completion of the proposed
development on the site the estimated market value is
approximately $622,600. The increase in market value
($580,400), less the present value of the estimated tax increments
to be received from TIF District for its duration ($316,576), is
$263,824. This exceeds the reasonably foreseeable increase in
market value without the provision of tax increment assistance
(said increase being $0).
(3) The TIF Plan conforms to the general plan for development or
redevelopment of the City as a whole; and
The reasons and facts supporting this finding are that the TIF
District is properly zoned the proposed development and the
proposed development has been approved by the City Planning
Commission as compatible with the City's comprehensive plan.
(4) The TIF Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the
sound needs of the City as a whole, for the development of the
Redevelopment Project by private enterprise.
The reasons and facts supporting this finding are that the
primary development within the TIF District, and within the
larger Project Area, has been and will be undertaken by private
enterprise, and the role of the Authority is limited to assisting
private enterprise by providing financing for the initial costs of
land acquisition and clearance and for the required
infrastructure.
Section K Estimated Public Costs
The estimated public costs of the proposed development in the TIF
District will not exceed $480,978 in the aggregate consisting of up to (i) $432,880 for
land acquisition, clearance and demolition, site preparation and installation of
-5-
needed road, utility, parking, landscaping and sidewalk improvements and (ii)
$48,098 for administrative expenses (see Section T below).
The Authority reserves the right to adjust the foregoing amounts or
incorporate additional eligible items, so long as the total estimated public costs do
not exceed $480,978. The Authority anticipates that the final public costs to be paid or
reimbursed, and the mechanism for payment or reimbursement, will be set forth in
a development agreement to be entered into between the Authority and the
developer.
Section L
Estimated Sources of Revenue
The estimated public costs of the project to be incurred in the TIF
District will be paid through the collection of tax increments derived from the TIF
District. The Authority reserves the right to finance any or all public costs of the TIF
District using pay-as-you-go assistance, internal funding, general obligation debt, or
any other financing mechanism authorized by law. The Authority also reserves the
right to use other sources of revenue legally applicable to the Redevelopment
Project to pay for such costs including, but not limited to, utility revenues, federal or
state funds, and investment income.
The Authority expects to enter into a pay-as-you-go development
agreement with the developer of the site whereby the Authority would agree to
reimburse the developer for eligible public costs initially paid by the developer as
increment becomes available, which reimbursement, if made over time, may
include a reasonable market interest component. However, the aggregate amount
of increment devoted to the payment of the eligible public costs, including any
interest component, shall not exceed the limitations set forth in Section K above.
Section M Estimated Amount of Bonded Indebtedness
The City does not expect to issue any tax increment bonds to finance
the estimated public costs of the TIF District, though it reserves the right to do so.
Section N Original Net Tax Capacity
The County Auditor shall certify the Original Net Tax Capacity of the
TIF District, which will be the total net tax capacity of all property in the TIF District
as certified by the State Commissioner of Revenue. For districts certified between
January 1 and June 30, inclusive, this value is based on the previous assessment
year. For districts certified between July 1 and December 31, inclusive, this value is
based on the current assessment year.
-6-
The Estimated Market Value of all property within the TIF District as of
January 2, 1996, for taxes payable in 1997, is $42,200. Upon establishment of the TIF
District it is estimated that the Original Net Tax Capacity of the TIF District will be
approximately $1,266.
Section 0 Original Tax Capacity Rate
The County Auditor shall also certify the Original Tax Capacity Rate of
the TIF District. This rate shall be the sum of all local tax rates that apply to property
in the TIF District. This rate shall be for the same taxes payable year as the Original
Net Tax Capacity.
In future years, the amount of tax increment generated by the TIF
District will be calculated using the lesser of (a) the sum of the current local tax rates
at that time or (b) the Original Tax Capacity Rate of the TIF District.
The sum of all local tax rates that apply to property in the TIF District,
for taxes levied in 1996 and payable in 1997, is 124.411% as shown below. The
County Auditor shall certify this amount as the Original Tax Capacity Rate of the
TIF District.

Section P
Projected Captured Net Tax Capacity and Projected Tax Increment
Each year the County Auditor shall determine the current net tax
capacity of all property in the TIF District. To the extent that this total exceeds the
Original Net Tax Capacity, the difference shall be known as the Captured Net Tax
Capacity of the TIF District.
The County Auditor shall certify to the Authority the amount of
Captured Net Tax Capacity each year. The Authority may choose to retain any or all
of this amount. It is the Authority's intention to retain 100% of the Captured Net
Tax Capacity of the TIF District.
-7-
Exhibit C shows the projected tax increment generated over the
anticipated life of the TIF District based on the assumptions set forth therein.
Section Q Use of Tax Increment
Each year the County Treasurer shall deduct 0.1 % of the annual tax
increment generated by the TIF District and pay such amount to the State's General
Fund. Such amounts will be appropriated to the State Auditor for the cost of
financial reporting and auditing of tax increment financing information throughout
the state.
The Authority has determined that it will use 100% of the remaining
tax increment generated by the TIF District for any of the following purposes:
(1) Pay for the estimated public costs of the TIF District, including
administrative expenses of the Authority and County administrative
costs associated with the TIF District;
(2) pay principal and interest on tax increment bonds or other bonds
issued to finance the estimated public costs of the TIF District or pay
required reimbursement payments for such public costs to the
developer pursuant to any pay-as-you-go development agreement
entered into between the Authority and the developer;
(3) pay all or a portion of the county road costs as may be required by the
County Board under M.s. Section 469.175, Subdivision 1a; or
(4) return excess tax increments to the County Auditor for redistribution
to the City, County and School District in proportion to their local tax
capacity rates.
Tax increment shall not be used to finance the acquisition,
construction, renovation, operation, or maintenance of a building to be used
primarily and regularly for conducting the business of a municipality, county,
school district, or any other local unit of government or the State or federal
government. This prohibition does not apply to the construction or renovation of a
parking structure, a common area used as a public park, or a facility used for social,
recreational, or conference purposes and not primarily for conducting the business
of the community.
If there exists any type of agreement or arrangement providing for the
developer, or other beneficiary of assistance, to repay all or a portion of the
assistance that was paid or financed with tax increments, such payments shall be
subject to all of the restrictions imposed on the use of tax increments. Assistance
-8-
includes sales of property at less than the cost of acquisition or fair market value,
grants, ground or other leases at less than fair market rent, interest rate subsidies,
utility service connections, roads, or other similar assistance that would otherwise
be paid for by the developer or beneficiary.
Section R Excess Tax Increment
In any year in which the tax increments from the TIF District exceed
the amount necessary to pay the estimated public costs authorized by the TIF Plan,
the Authority shall use the excess tax increments to:
(1)
prepay any outstanding tax increment bonds;
discharge the pledge of tax increments therefor;
(2)
(3)
pay amounts into an escrow account dedicated to the payment of the
tax increment bonds; or
(4)
return excess tax increments to the County Auditor for redistribution
to the City, County and School District in proportion to their local tax
capacity rates.
Section S
Tax Increment Pooling; Additional Limitation
At least 75% of the tax increments from the TIF District must be
expended on activities within the district or to pay for bonds used to finance the
estimated public costs of the TIF District. No more than 25% of the tax increments
may be spent on costs outside of the TIF District, but within the boundaries of the
Project Area. All administrative expenses are considered to have been spent outside
of the TIF District. Tax increments are considered to have been spent within the TIF
District if such amounts are:
(1) actually paid to a third party for activities performed within the TIF
District within five years after certification of the district;
(2) used to make payments or reimbursements to a third party under
binding contracts for activities performed within the TIF District,
which were entered into within five years after certification of the
district; or
(3) used to pay bonds that were issued and sold to a third party, the
proceeds of which are reasonably expected on the date of issuance to be
spent within the later of the five-year period or a reasonable temporary
-9-
period or are deposited in a reasonably required reserve or replacement
fund.
Beginning with the sixth year following certification of the TIF District,
at least 75% of the tax increments must be used to pay outstanding bonds or make
contractual payments obligated within the first five years. When outstanding bonds
have been defeased and sufficient money has been set aside to pay for such
contractual obligations, the TIF District must be decertified.
The Authority reserves the right to allow for tax increment pooling
from the TIF District. See, however, Section E for additional restrictions imposed on
expenditures of tax increments of the TIF District.
Section T
Limitation on Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses are defined as all costs of the Authority other
than:
(1) amounts paid for the purchase of land;
(2) amounts paid for materials and services, including architectural and
engineering services, directly connected with the proposed
development within the TIF District;
(3) relocation benefits paid to, or services provided for, persons or
businesses located within the TIF District; or
(4) amounts used to pay interest on, fund a reserve for, or sell at a
discount, tax increment bonds.
Administrative expenses include amounts paid for services provided
by bond counsel, fiscal consultants and planning or economic development
consultants. Tax increments may be used to pay administrative expenses of the TIF
District up to the lesser of (a) 10% of the total estimated public costs authorized by
the TIF Plan or (b) 10% of the total tax increment expenditures of the project.
Section U Limitation on Property Not Subject to Improvements
If after four years from certification of the TIF District no demolition,
rehabilitation, renovation, or qualified improvement of an adjacent street has
commenced on a: parcel located within the TIF District, then that parcel shall be
excluded from the TIF District and the Original Net Tax Capacity shall be adjusted
accordingly. The Authority must submit to the County Auditor, by February 1 of
-10-
the fifth year, evidence that the required activity has taken place for each parcel in
the TIF District.
If a parcel is excluded from the TIF District and the Authority or owner
of the parcel subsequently commences any of the above activities, the Authority
shall certify to the County Auditor that such activity has commenced and the parcel
shall once again be included in the TIF District. The County Auditor shall certify the
net tax capacity of the parcel, as most recently certified by the Commissioner of
Revenue, and add such amount to the Original Net Tax Capacity of the TIF District.
Section V Estimated Impact on Other Taxing Jurisdictions
Exhibit D shows the estimated impact on other taxing jurisdictions if
the maximum projected Captured Net Tax Capacity of the TIF District was
hypothetically available to the other jurisdictions. The Authority believes that there
will be no adverse impact on other taxing jurisdictions during the life of the TIF
District, since the proposed development would not have occurred without the
establishment of the TIF District and the provision of public assistance. A positive
impact on other taxing jurisdictions will occur when the TIF District is decertified
and the development therein becomes part of the general tax base.
Section W Local Government Aid Penalty
Tax increment financing districts established or expanded after April
30, 1990 may cause a reduction in the local government aid (LGA/HACA) received
by the City from the State.
For tax increment financing plans approved on of after July 1, 1995, the
Authority may elect at the time of such approval to make qualifying local
contribution(s) to the TIF District, and thereby be exempt from any loss of local
government aid. For renewal and renovation districts these contributions must
equal 10% of the annual increment generated by the TIF District.
Such contributions must be made out of unrestricted money and may
not be made, directly or indirectly, with tax increments or developer payments. The
contributions must be used to pay project costs and cannot be used for general
government purposes or for costs which would have been incurred absent the
project. The Authority may request contributions from other local governmental
entities that will benefit from the establishment of the district.
The Authority does hereby elect to make the qualifying local
contribution(s) to the TIF District. See Exhibit E hereto - the Authority elects Option
B as shown thereon.
-11-
Section X
Prior Planned Improvements
The Authority shall accompany its request for certification to the
County Auditor with a listing of all properties within the TIF District for which
building permits have been issued during the 18 months immediately preceding
approval of the TIF Plan by the City. The County Auditor shall increase the Original
Net Tax Capacity of the TIF District by the net tax capacity of each improvement for
which a building permit was issued.
There have been no building permits issued in the last 18 months in
conjunction with any of the properties within the TIF District.
Section Y
Development Agreements
The Authority anticipates entering into an agreement for development
of the TIF District by the developer, but does not anticipate that the Authority will
acquire any property located within the TIF District.
Section Z
Assessment Agreements
The Authority may, upon entering into a development agreement,
also enter into an assessment agreement with the developer, which establishes a
minimum market value of the land and improvements for each year during the life
of the TIF District.
The Authority does not anticipate entering into an assessment
agreement since it anticipates any reimbursement of eligible public costs to the
developer will be made only on a pay-as-you-go basis from increment actually
received by the Authority.
Section AA Modifications of the Tax Increment Financing Plan
Any reduction or enlargement in the geographic area of the
Redevelopment Project or the TIF District; increase in the amount of bonded
indebtedness to be incurred; increase in the amount of capitalized interest; increase
in that portion of the Captured Net Tax Capacity to be retained by the Authority;
increase in the total estimated public costs; or designation of additional property to
be acquired by the Authority shall be approved only after satisfying all the necessary
requirements for approval of the original TIF Plan. This paragraph does not apply
if:
(1) the only modification is elimination of parcels from the
Redevelopment Project or the TIF District; and
-12-
(2) the current net tax capacity of the parcels eliminated equals or exceeds
the net tax capacity of those parcels in the TIF District's Original Net
Tax Capacity, or the Authority agrees that the TIF District's Original
Net Tax Capacity will be reduced by no more than the current net tax
capacity of the parcels eliminated.
The Authority must notify the County Auditor of any modification
that reduces or enlarges the geographic area of the Redevelopment Project or the TIF
District. The geographic area of the TIF District may be reduced but not enlarged
after five years following the date of certification.
Section AB Administration of the Tax Increment Financing Plan
Upon adoption of the TIF Plan, the Authority shall submit a copy of
such plan to the Minnesota Department of Revenue. The Authority shall also
request that the County Auditor certify the Original Net Tax Capacity and Net Tax
Capacity Rate of the TIF District.
The County shall distribute to the Authority the amount of tax
increment as it becomes available. The amount of tax increment in any year
represents the applicable property taxes generated by the Captured Net Tax Capacity
of the TIF District. The amount of tax increment may change due to development
anticipated by the TIF Plan, other development, inflation of property values, or
changes in property classification rates or formulas. Tax increment shall be
computed in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177.
Section AC Financial Reporting and Disclosure Requirements
The State Auditor shall enforce the provisions of the TIF Act and shall
have full responsibility for financial and compliance auditing of the Authority's use
of tax increment financing. The Authority and City shall comply with the
disclosure and reporting requirements of Section 469.175, subd. 5, subd. 6 and subd.
6a.

Neither building complies with the State Building Code applicable to structures of similar

STATEMENT #1: Assuming that ALL of the captured tax capacity would be available to
all taxing jurisdictions even if the City does not create Tax Increment Financing District
No. 13, then the creation of the District will reduce the tax capacities and increase the tax
capacity rates as illustrated in the above-referenced tables.
STATEMENT #2: Assuming that NONE of the captured tax capacity would be available to
all taxing jurisdictions if the City did not provide tax increment assistance through Tax
Increment Financing District No. 13, then the plan has virtually no initial impact on the tax
capaCities of the taxing jurisdictions. However, once the District is established. allowable
costs are paid from increments, and the District is terminated. all taxing jurisdiction will
enjoy an improvement in their tax base.

SUBJECT:
Public Hearing to Amend the Original
Downtown Redevelopment District
DATE:
April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
As Council is aware, the HRA had committed to assisting the developer, Ms. Melissa Lee, with
approximately $24,000 in tax increment financing. At this time, the Council will need to approve an
amendment to the Original Redevelopment Project Area to facilitate this use of tax increment for
qualifying redevelopment expenditures made by the developer.
DISCUSSION
Mr. Thomas Truszinski will be present to review the project plan and financial particulars underwriting
the assistance to the Ms. Lee redevelopment project.
BUDGET IMPACT
As indicated earlier, the use of tax increment financing may result in a local government penalty to the
City. However, in light of the fact, that this district is scheduled to be closed by April 1, 2001 for any
new redevelopment projects, the Local Government Aid penalty, as presented, will be fairly minimal.
This information will be formally presented to Council at the April 21, 1997 meeting.
ACTION REQUESTED
1) Open the Public Hearing for the purpose of receiving comments relative to amending the Original
Redevelopment Project Area to assist the developer in site acquisition, demolition and other
miscellaneous qualifying expenditures. The level of financial assistance committed to by the Farmington
HRA was in an amount not to exceed $24,000.
2) Adopt the attached resolution authorizing amending the Original Redevelopment Project Area to assist
the developer (Ms. Melissa Lee) in site acquisition and redevelopment.

RESOLUTION APPROVING AMENDMENT TO REDEVELOPMENT
PLAN FOR F A&.\I1INGTON REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA
WHEREAS, the Farmington Housing and Redevelopment Authority has
heretofore adopted a Redevelopment Plan (the "Plan") for the Farmington
Redevelopment Project Area; and
WHEREAS, it is now proposed that the Plan be amended to facilitate the
acquisition of property within the Original Redevelopment Project Area, the
demolition of an existing structure and the construction a restaurant facility on the
property with related site improvements; and
WHEREAS, the HRA has prepared an amendment to the Plan (the "1997
Amendment") updating the Plan to cover the proposed development;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 469.029, subd. 6, Minnesota Statutes, the City
has conducted a public hearing on the adoption of the 1997 Amendment; and
WHEREAS, the 1997 Amendment has heretofore been approved by the Board
of Commissioners of the HRA; and
WHEREAS, the City has held a public hearing on the 1997 Amendment after
published notice as required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.028.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council makes the
following findings with respect to the Plan and the 1997 Amendment, to-wit:
1. With respect to the Plan, the Council confirms the findings made in
Resolution No. R14-90, adopted by the Council on March 14, 1990.
2. The land described in the 1997 Amendment is subject to blighting
conditions preventing private development and it would not be available for
redevelopment without the governmental assistance and financial aid proposed to
be made available pursuant to the 1997 Amendment.
3. The 1997 Amendment will afford maximum opportunity for
redevelopment by private enterprise, consistent with the sound needs of the locality
as a whole, since the proposed redevelopment will be undertaken by private
enterprise and the role of the HRA will be to provide assistance with a portion of
the public redevelopment costs.
-4:. The redevelopment to be assisted pursuant to the 1997 Amendment is
consistent with the general land use proposals and planning objectives established
by the City in its Comprehensive Plan.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Farmington:
1. The 1997 Amendment is approved.
") The City Administrator is directed to communicate the Council's approval

1997-1 AMENDMENT TO FARMINGTON REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT PLAN
Approved by the HRA: April 14, 1997
Approved by the City of Farmington: April 21, 1997
Section 1. Background. The Redevelopment Plan (the "Plan") for the
Farmington Redevelopment Project Area was originally drafted in December, 1974
and updated in February, 1990. The Project Area originally encompassed a large
portion ot the central area or the City (the "Original Project Area"). The boundaries
of the Project Area were expanded in 1990 to cover certain areas or the City outside
or the Original Project Area (the Project Area, as expanded, being referred to as the
"Expanded Project Area"). Among the redevelopment objectives of the Plan is to
enhance the livability or the City through the elimination or blighted areas by
removing substandard, blighted and obsolete structures and providing a cleared and
improved site ror new business development.
Section 2. Proposed Development. The HRA proposes to assist a
development within the Original Project Area near the intersection of 3rd and Oak
Streets in the City involving the acquisition or the site, the demolition or a blighted
and obsolete structure on the site, the improvement of the site with necessary
infrastructure and the construction thereon or a restaurant racility. The
development is to be undertaken by Laixing, Inc. or a related entity. The HRA
proposes to assist the development by providing up to $24,000 ror tax increment
eligible expenses on a pay-as-you-go basis. The development would assist in
achieving the redevelopment objectives or the Plan as outlined in Section 1 above.
Section 3. Tax Increment. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.176,
subd. 1c, the HRA cannot collect tax increment from the Original Project Area past
April 1, 2001 except for the limited purposes set forth in said Section. Attached
hereto as Exhibit A is an estimate or the increment payable by the proposed
development in years 1999 and 2000, assuming the development is fully constructed
in 1997. Said increment, up to $24,000, will be devoted to payment, or
reimbursement, or eligible expenses in connection with the development, including
land acquisition assistance, clearance and demolition, site preparation and
infrastructure improvements, all pursuant to an agreement to be executed between
the HRA and developer. The HRA is not amending the boundaries or the Original
Project Area, and assisting the development will not extend the life or the Original
Project Area.

SUBJECT:
Industrial Revenue Bonds

DATE:
April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
On September 3, 1996, the Council gave preliminary approval for the issuance of Industrial Revenue
Bonds to assist Wanner Engineering in the construction and completion of a 40,000 square foot
expansion in Phase I of the City's Industrial Park. These construction costs were proposed to be financed
by a $2.5 million Industrial Revenue Bond. Wanner Engineering is now requesting that the City approve
the issuance of these bonds to underwrite the construction of this recent expansion.
DISCUSSION
As Council may be aware, the issuance of Industrial Revenue Bonds does not affect the City's tax
capacity rate and are essentially financed by the company on whose behalf the issuance of the debt is
secured. Security of debt repayment is pledged by the company and underwritten through private
financial institutions. Council may recall a similar issuance on behalf of Lexington Standard.
Accordingly, there is essentially no risk to the City regarding the approval and issuance of these category
type bonds.
BUDGET IMP ACT
None.
ACTION REQUESTED
Open the Public Hearing for the purpose of receiving comments relative to the issuance of bonds in
support of this project on behalf of Wanner Engineering, Inc.
Adopt the attached resolution authorizing the issuance of Industrial Revenue Bonds, Series 1997 and the
execution of appropriate documents as required under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.153.

Re: Precision Fitting and Valve Project/ Wanner Engineering Inc.
Dear Mr. Erar:
Enclosed is a revised draft of the resolution approving the project and authorizing
the issuance of the bonds to be adopted by the City Council following the public hearing on
April 21. This can replace the initial draft of the resolution which was included in the
package of materials enclosed with the letter of April 8 from Lenore Aaseng of our office.
The Project to be financed by the proposed bond issue is a 40,000 square foot
manufacturing facility constructed by Wanner Engineering, Inc. (the "Company") following
the adoption by the City Council of a preliminary reimbursement resolution. The building
will be owned by WFW Ventures, LLC (the "Borrower"), a limited liability company
formed by the Company, and will be leased by the Borrower to the Company. The
Company plans to use the building for the manufacturing and assembly business of its
Precision Fitting and Valve division; initially, only half of the building will be used by
Precision, with the other half subleased to Centre Manufacturing, Inc. for a five-year period.
It is anticipated that, upon the expiration of the Centre Manufacturing sublease, Precision
will expand its manufacturing and assembly operations into the remainder of the building.
The Bonds will be issued pursuant to an Indenture of Trust between the City and
Firstar Trust Co. (the "Trustee"), and the Bond proceeds will be loaned to the B9rrower
pursuant to a Loan Agreement between the City and the Borrower. The Borrower will
agree in the Loan Agreement to operate and maintain the Project and pay all of the costs
thereof, and will agree to pay loan repayments to the Trustee for the account of the City in
the amounts and at the times required to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds.
The lease from the Borrower to the Company will also be assigned to the Trustee as security
for the Bonds.

The Bonds will be issued with a floating interest rate, and will be subject to tender by
the bondholders for purchase by the Borrower upon seven days' notice. The Borrower's
obligation to purchase the Bonds upon tender, and the prompt and full payment of the
principal of and interest on the Bonds, will be secured by an irrevocable, direct-pay letter of
credit issued by Firstar Bank of Minnesota, N.A. to the Trustee, for the account of the
Borrower.
If you have questions about the financing or the enclosed resolution, please call me.

RESOLUTION APPROVING A PROJECT ON BEHALF OF
PRECISION FITTING AND VALVE, A DIVISION OF WANNER
ENGINEERING; INC. AND ITS FINANCING UNDER THE
MINNESOTA MUNICIPAL INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT ACT;
AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF INDUSTRIAL
DEVELOPMENT BONDS (PRECISION FITTING AND VAL VB
PROJECT), SERIES 1997, AND THE EXECUTION OF
DOCUMENTS AND OTHER MATTERS RELATING THERETO
WHEREAS, pursuant to a resolution adopted on September 3, 1996, this
Council gave preliminary approval to the issuance of revenue bonds by the City of
Farmington, Minnesota (the "City") under Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.152
through 469.165 (the "Act") in an amount not to exceed $2,500,000 to finance a project
on behalf of Precision Fitting and Valve, a division of Wanner Engineering, Inc., a
Minnesota corporation (the "Company"), consisting of the construction and
equipment of an approximately 40,000 square foot manufacturing facility adjacent to
the Company's existing facility located on Highway 50 in the Farmington Industrial
Park (the "Project") to be used by the Company in its business of manufacturing,
assembly and distribution of precision engineered products; and
WHEREAS, at a public hearing, duly noticed and held on April 21, 1997, in
accordance with the Act and Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, on
the proposal to undertake and finance the Project, all parties who appeared at the
hearing were given an opportunity to express their views with respect to the proposal
to . undertake and finance the Project and interested persons were given the
opportunity to submit written comments to the City Administrator before the time of
the hearing. Based on the public hearing, such written comments (if any) and such
other facts and circumstances as this Council deems relevant, this Council hereby
finds, determines and declares as follows:
(a) The welfare of the State of Minnesota requires active promotion,
attraction, encouragement and development of economically sound industry and
commerce through governmental actions for the purpose of preventing the
emergence of blighted and marginal lands and areas of chronic unemployment, and
the State of Minnesota has encouraged local government units to act to prevent such
economic deterioration.
(b) The undertaking of the Project would further the general purposes
contemplated and described in Section 469.152 of the Act.
(c) The existence of the Project would add to the tax base of Dakota
County, the City and the School District in which the Project is located and would
provide increased opportunities for employment for residents of the City and
surrounding area.
(d) This Council has been advised by representatives of the Company
that conventional, commercial financing to pay the cost of the Project is available
only on a limited basis and at such high costs of borrowing that the economic
feasibility of constructing and operating the Project would be reduced, but that with
the aid of municipal borrowing, and its resulting lower borrowing cost, the Project is
economically more feasible.
(e) The Council has been advised by representatives of the Company
that the Project would not be undertaken but for the availability of industrial
development bond financing.
(f) This Council has also been advised by representatives of the
Company that on the basis of their discussions with potential buyers of tax-exempt
bonds, revenue bonds of the City (which may be in the form of a revenue note or
notes) could be issued and sold upon favorable rates and terms to finance the Project.
(g) The City is authorized by the Act to issue its revenue bonds to
finance capital projects consisting of properties used and useful in connection with a
revenue-producing enterprise, such as that of the Company, and the issuance of the
bonds by the City was substantial inducement to the Company to construct the Project;
and
WHEREAS, the City is authorized by the Act to enter into a revenue agreement
with any person in such manner that payments required thereby to be made by the
contracting party shall be fixed, and revised from time to time as necessary, so as to
produce income and revenue sufficient to provide for the prompt payment of
principal of and interest on all bonds issued under the Act when due, and the
revenue agreement shall also provide that the contracting party shall be required to
pay all expenses of the operation and maintenance of the project including, but
without limitation, adequate insurance thereon and insurance against all liability for
injury to persons or property arising from the operation thereof, and all taxes and
special assessments levied upon or with respect to the project and payable during the
term of the revenue agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Company has formed a Minnesota limited liability company,
WFW Ventures LLC (the "Borrower"), which will own the Project and lease it to the
Company; the Borrower will be the recipient of the loan from the City hereinafter
described, and the lease will require that the Company perform all of the obligations
of the Borrower with respect to the revenue bonds; the lease will be assigned by the
Borrower as security for the revenue bonds; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Act and the Indenture of Trust (the "Indenture")
to be dated as of May I, 1997, between the City and Firstar Trust Co. (the "Trustee"),
the City proposes to authorize, issue and sell its Industrial Development Revenue
-2-
Bonds (Precision Fitting and Valve Project), Series 1997 (the "Bonds") in an aggregate
principal amount not to exceed $2,000,000, payable solely from the amounts pledged
therefor under the Indenture; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to a Loan Agreement (the "Loan Agreement"), to be
dated as of May 1, 1997, between the City and the Borrower, the City proposes to loan
the proceeds of the Bonds to the Borrower, which the Borrower will agree to repay in
installments in amounts and at times sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on the Bonds when due, and which proceeds the Borrower will
agree to use to pay a portion of the costs of the Project; and
WHEREAS, concurrently with, as a condition to, and as further security for, the
issuance of the Bonds, and pursuant to a Letter of Credit and Reimbursement
.Agreement, to be dated as of May 1, 1997, between Firstar Bank of Minnesota, N.A.
(the "Bank") and the Borrower, the Bank will issue an irrevocable direct-pay Letter of
Credit (the "Letter of Credit") to the Trustee; and
WHEREAS, the Trustee is entitled to draw on the Letter of Credit to pay
principal and interest on the Bonds in accordance with the provisions of the
Indenture, which provisions include, but are not limited to, draws on the Letter of
Credit in the event the Bonds are not remarketed, when applicable, according to the
provisions of a Remarketing Agreement (the "Remarketing Agreement") among the
City, the Trustee, the Borrower and Miller & Schroeder Financial, Inc.; and
WHEREAS, neither the City nor the State of Minnesota nor any political
subdivision thereof (other than the City and then only to the extent of the trust estate
pledged in the Indenture) shall be liable on the Bonds, and the Bonds shall not be a
debt of the City or the State of Minnesota or any political subdivision thereof (other
than the City and then only to the extent of the trust estate pledged in the Indenture),
and in any event shall not give rise to a charge against the credit or taxing power of
the City, Dakota County (the "County"), the State of Minnesota, or any political
subdivision thereof;

Subject: South Suburban Medical Center
Expansion, Extension of Elm Street
to 9th Street
Date: April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
The South Suburban Medical Center has come in with preliminary plans to expand their facilities by
adding a clinic on the south side of their existing building. As part of this expansion the Medical
Center is petitioning the City to construct street and utility improvements that would extend Elm Street
to the east and connect to 9th Street (See attached petition and figure).
DISCUSSION
The extension of Elm Street to the east is necessary for the Medical Center expansion to occur. The
Medical Center is in the process of obtaining the land through which the extension of Elm Street
would be routed. In order for the project to go forward, the Council would need to authorize a
feasibility study on the road and utility improvements. The feasibility study along with a developers
agreement between the Medical Center and the City would be brought to Council for approval, and the
Council at that time could authorize the preparation of plans and specifications. In the developers
agreement, the Medical Center would agree to pay for all costs associated with the street and utility
improvements. As stated on the petition and as is consistent with previous development agreements,
the Medical Center would waive their right to a public hearing regarding the assessment of costs for
the project.
BUDGET IMPACT
The Medical Center has agreed through the signing of the petition to pay for the costs of the
feasibility study if the project were not to go forward. Otherwise, the entire cost of the project will be
the responsibility of the Medical Center.
ACTION REQUIRED
Authorize the staff to prepare a feasibility study for the proposed street and utility improvements for
the easterly extension of Elm Street to 9th Street by resolution.

SUBJECT: Public Improvement Process
Capital Project Schedule
DATE: April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
At the April 7, 1997 Council meeting, there was some confusion relative to whether a public
improvement hearing or an informational meeting had been scheduled for the Main Street
Improvement Project.
DISCUSSION
As discussed with Council in an earlier work session, a current review of the entire public
improvement process by involved staff has again emphasized the need to revise this process to
facilitate the efficient progress and cost-effective accomplishment of proposed CIP projects.
Further, it is of particular importance that Council be provided with a standard or model process
that staff will utilize to advance projects through the various development stages, and the types of
official actions necessary to ensure compliance with state statutes.
Several key stages in the project development process include the Public Hearing; Ordering of
the Public Improvement; and the Preparation of Plans and Specifications.
. The Public Hearing is a key decision point in the project development stage with respect to
whether the Council will ultimately decide to approve the project, or will reject the project. It
is of significant importance relative to whether Council will:
1. Authorize further expenditures of time and funds in the preparation of plans
and specifications.
2. Consider whether there is public support for the project
3. Consider the financial implications of attempting the project, i.e. tax. levies,
bonding, debt service, tax capacity.
4. Consider Preliminary Special Assessments for affected residents
5. Determine whether to Order the Public Improvement
. With respect to official actions Council should take to set or schedule a public hearing, the
City Attorney has indicated that all public hearings relative to public improvements should be
adopted by Council resolution.

Public Improvement Process

The Public Hearing stage identified as Step 3 in this process will essentially determine the
viability of the proposed project. The ordering of the project is effectively a "green" light to
authorize the completion of the project by staff.
ACTION REQUESTED
The attached CIP Project Development and Process Authorization Schedule, as revised, will be
reviewed with Council.

CIP PROJECT DEVELOPMENT AND
PROCESS AUTHORIZATION SCHEDULE
The following process is a Council/staff guideline for authorizing public improvement projects.
As this process is controlled by State Statute, and other influencing environmental factors, it is
subject to change and should be viewed as a tool to assist the Council and public in
understanding the public improvement process used by City staff. Each step in the process, and
accomplishment of respective activities would be facilitated by a separate Council meeting. As
a result, the process time frame is a significant factor affecting City staff s ability to properly
manage and complete approved Council ordered projects within budget and on time.
1. Council Approval of Annual CIP Projects will authorize the following
outcomes:

SUBJECT: Purchase Front End Loader
DATE:
April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
On March 17, 1997 the City Council authorized advertisement for bids on a new 1997 Front End
Loader which was included the 1997 Budget.
DISCUSSION
Bids were received on the Loader from three different vendors, on April 17, 1997 at 2:00 P.M.
The low bidder on the equipment with the three options was St. Joseph Equipment with the Case
model 721 Bat $140,011.29. The second lowest bid was from ROO Equipment on a John Deere
624G at $140,571.48. Costs of scheduled maintenance were included by all bidders, as were
guaranteed "buyback" prices. A schedule of the bids is attached to this memo.
Analysis of the bids, on the basis of actual hard costs paid to the vendor, indicates that the Case
Loader (a 505 cubic inch engine, 30,096 lb. Piece of equipment) is the low bid in comparison to
the John Deere Loader (a 414 cubic inch engine, 28,965 lb. Piece of equipment). Although both
meet minimum specs, the Case is a larger unit. The costs of scheduled maintenance are what
the vendor believes will be the cost to the buyer for items like oil changes, hydraulic fluid and fuel
economy, and is, essentially, an estimate.
These items are outlined in the bids to ensure equality between the bidders, but are difficult to
compare on a point-to-point basis on equipment of slightly different specifications (as in this case).
BUDGET IMPACT
The 1997 Budget allowed for $150,000 to be spent on this Loader. The low bid is almost $10,000
less than the amount budgeted. Funding for the Loader is in the form of $155,000 Certificates of
Indebtedness to be issued through negotiated sale at an interest rate of 4.5%.
ACTION REQUIRED
1) Accept the low bid by St. Joseph Equipment for purchase of the New 1997 Four Wheel
Loader at $140,011.29.
2) Approve the resolution for the sale of $155,000 Certificates of Indebtedness to fund the
purchase.

Industrial Park II
DATE:
April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
Construction of the second phase of the Farmington Industrial Park infrastructure has been
completed and assessment of the appropriate costs to benefiting properties under Minnesota
Statute 429 may now take place.
DISCUSSION
The City of Farmington issued $850,000 of Improvement Bonds to fund the infrastructure
improvements in October 1996. Levying assessments on the benefiting properties within the
project area will fund the debt service payment on these bonds.
Property owners in the Industrial Park Phase II include Lexington Standard, Bernard "Babe"
Murphy and the City of Farmington HRA. Wally Sapp and Tim Milner have options with the HRA
on certain properties in Phase II. Waivers of hearing and appeal rights on these proposed
assessments have been received verbally from all property owners. By waiving their rights, the
property owners accept the proposed assessments against their property.
BUDGET IMPACT
A schedule of the Final Assessment Roll is attached. Total project costs were $820,833, of which
$138,012 benefited properties in Phases 3 & 4 of the Park (and will be assessed against those
properties when those phases are developed). Total Phase 2 assessable costs are $682,821.51
or $30,293.77 per acre.
ACTION REQUIRED
Adoption of the attached resolution, Assessment Roll for Industrial Park Phase II properties,
contingent on obtaining written waivers.

Henderson Area Storm Sewer
Feasibility Study, Project 96-2
DATE:
April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
Transmitted herewith is the feasibility report for the construction of storm sewer in the Henderson Area,
Project 96-2, for your review.
DISCUSSION
The construction of storm sewer in the Henderson area would address drainage and groundwater issues that
have been identified in Farmington's 1993 Facilities Plan. Currently, this area has no storm sewer, large areas
of overland flow and high groundwater. The lack of an adequate drainage system contributes to street dete-
rioration and presents safety concerns with ponding and ice, especially at the low area on Hickory between
7th and 8th Street. This report discusses the feasibility of constructing storm sewer between 7th and 10th
Street generally along the alignment of Hickory Street.
This report provides detailed cost estimates, financial review, proposed assessments, plan views of the
improvement area and a project schedule.
BUDGET IMPACT
The Henderson Area Storm Sewer improvements \vere approved in the 1997 Capital Improvement Plan. The
total estimated project cost is $397,900. Special assessments are presented in this study.
ACTION REQUESTED .
1) Council decision whether to approve or reject the Henderson Area Storm Sewer project as presented.
2) If the project is approved:
. Accept the feasibility study.
· Adopt the attached resolution order a Public Hearing to be held on May 19, 1997.

INTRODUCTION
The City Council has requested this report to determine the feasibility of providing storm sewer service
to the Henderson Area of Farmington including the location of an existing low point located on Hickory
Street midway between 7th Street and Highway 3. This report has been ordered to investigate the
existing drainage conditions and determine what improvements need to be made. The report also
addresses the costs associated with the proposed improvements.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In May of 1993, the City of Farmington's Facilities Plan indicated that the Henderson area had no storm
sewer, large areas of overland flow and a-high ground water elevation. The Facilities Plan proposed
installing storm sewer and a sump pump discharge line to reduce the overland flow, lower the ground
water elevation and provide a discharge line for sump pumps.
The Prairie Waterway, which was constructed after the Facilities Plan was published, appears to have
stabilized the ground water table in the Henderson Area. As a result, the discharge of sump pumps has
been reduced a great deal and does not appear to be a problem any longer. Knowing this information,
we have decided to remove the sump pump discharge line from the project. It may be necessary to
implement a project in the future for the sump pump discharge lines if the problem reoccurs.
To guard against possible future groundwater fluctuations, a drain tile will be constructed along with
the storm sewer as suggested in the Facilities Plan. This drain tile will connect into storm sewer
structures. The storm sewer will then convey the water to the Prairie Waterway.
The combination of storm sewer and drain tile in the Henderson Area will reduce overland flow and
stabilize the groundwater table at the same subsurface elevation as the storm sewer. This will result
in a lengthened life of streets, improved drainage at intersections, less ice buildup and safer driving
conditions, less infiltration into the sanitary sewer, less flooding of basements and the elimination of
flooding on Hickory Street between 7th Street and Highway 3.

Storm Sewer Improvements
The proposed storm sewer (see Figure 2) will connect into the existing 36" storm sewer in place at 10th
and Hickory Streets. The storm sewer will run along Hickory Street to 9th Street. Catch basins will be
constructed at this intersection. The storm sewer \\'ill then run between the townhomes and into the pond
at the northwest comer of the Townsedge Mall. From the pond, the sewer will be jacked beneath T.H.
3 to the west service road. From here it will be open cut to Hickory Street, and then to the low point on
Hickory. At the low point, the existing dry well catch basins will be removed and new catch basins will
be installed and connected to the storm sewer. The storm sewer will then run to the intersection of Hickory
and 7th Streets. Catch basins will be installed at this intersection as well as a manhole that will be the
connection point for future storm sewer constructed to the north. The intersection of 7th and Hickory is
the end point of this project.
The drain tile will be laid in the same trench as the storm sewer along the entire route and will be connected
to th~ storm sewer at the manhole locations.
Street Improvements
Street construction will be limited to repairing areas that are disturbed during construction. Repairs will
consist of a two foot granular subgrade, eight inches of Class 5 aggregate base and four inches of
bituminous surfacing. The existing curb and gutter will be replaced where catch basins are to be installed.

SUBJECT: Height Regulations for
Airspace Safety - Ordinance
DATE: April 21, 1997
INTRODUCTION
The proposed ordinance will amend Title 10, Chapter 5 by adding Section 2 to include a
requirement to notify the Federal Aviation Administration and the Minnesota Department
of Transportation when a proposed structure of two hundred feet or more above ground
level is located within the boundaries of the City of Farmington.
DISCUSSION
The proposed amendment will meet the Metropolitan Council's requirements regarding
the 714 acres of MUS A expansion in Farmington and addresses airspace safety near the
Airlake Airport. The amendment will provide a notification process to be followed when
a structure is proposed to be two hundred feet or more above ground level within the
boundaries of the Farmington. The ordinance will insure that approval of the proposed
structure has been reviewed by the Federal Aviation Administration and the Minnesota
Department of Transportation. The amendment also references Section 10-6-20(F)
stating the requirement for a maximum height of two hundred feet for towers. The
reference was included to address tower structures in airspace zones and exhibit
maximum height restrictions for these structures. The Planning Commission has
reviewed and approved the proposed amendment. The City Attorney has recommended
that clarification of the language for notification and approval by both ~eferenced bodies
be revised and the revisions have been reflected in the attached ordinance. The City
Attorney has also recommended the deletion of a reference for required tower heights
near the Airlake Aiport because this information already exists in the City Code. This
revision has also been reflected in the attached ordinance.
ACTION REQUIRED
Approve the Height Regulations for Airspace Safety amendment.
