PUBLIC HEARINGS 8. DISCUSSION ITEMS a) Grant Program Funding and Guidelines The EDA administers two grant programs,the Downtown Fagade Improvement Grant Program and the Redevelopment and Property Reinvestment Program. Each program is provided with $20,000 in funding. At the March EDA meeting, all funds were used for the Fagade Improvement Program. For 2021, staff recommended adding$30,000 in funding to the Fagade Improvement Program to cover any anticipated applications. Regarding the Redevelopment and Property Reinvestment Program,two grants have been awarded in 2021 and there is $2,100 left in funding. Staff proposed an additional $20,000 in funding for this program. Additional funding could come from the $52,000 of unallocated funds and from the $100,000 set aside for the Rambling River Center Plaza project. EDA Minutes(Regular) April 22,2021 Page 2 For 2022,the EDA mentioned revising the guidelines and the process for how grants are awarded. Staff proposed two options: Option 1 —Leave the guidelines and process as is with accepting applications and awarding grants throughout the year, but with increased funding of$50,000. Option 2-Mail out the Facade Improvement Program packet to downtown eligible properties in January. Applications would be scored by staff based on criteria such as: - Clear title to the property;taxes and any city fees are paid - Project meets the program objectives - Project impact on the surrounding area - Proposed work follows city code and/or historic preservation guidelines Applications based on highest scores and those that would use up available funding would be brought to the EDA for approval. Round 1 —Receive applications February—March, award grants in April, work would need to be completed by the end of October. Round 2—Receive applications April—May, award grants in June, work would need to be completed by the end of December. These timelines allow for grant money to be awarded within the same year. Whether having one round or two rounds should be based on amount of funding. If there is $50,000 in funding,we could award $30,000 in grants in the first round and $20,000 in the second round. If no applications are received for the second round, any leftover applications from the first round would be reviewed again. If less than $50,000 in funding is provided by the EDA, have one round only. The actions requested were: 1. For 2021, the EDA should decide if an additional $30,000 in funding should be added to the Fagade Improvement Program or $20,000 in funding added to the Redevelopment and Property Reinvestment Program or both. If no funding is added, both programs will be closed for the year. 2. For 2022,the EDA should select option 1 or 2 for the grant programs and decide the amount of funding for each program. Member Simmons suggested discussing individual grant amount maximums,then the amount of funding to allocate for the year,timing and selection criteria. Chair Butterfield agreed. He noted the guidelines are vague by intent and are interpreted differently. We should decide what is weighted for both programs. The history of grant funds has increased because of the work being expensive. We are at a maximum grant amount of$10,000 now. Member Simmons recalled we started at$5,000 max and that felt right. When applicants said they could not do their project without$10,000 that caused an urgency for funds. She would rather award four to six $5,000 grants. Member Simmons recalled the EDA had EDA Minutes(Regular) April 22,2021 Page 3 talked about a similar program for Highway 3. Councilmember Bernhjelm noted this program was not intended to be a lifeline. Are large scale projects a bigger impact on buildings? She could leave the grant amounts at$10,000 or$5,000. Member Carpentier talked with a few businesses and dropping the amount to $5,000 would be okay with them. Mayor Hoyt stated the Fagade Program is for B-2 and B-3 businesses in the downtown. Now the downtown district will be larger with the new zoning. It would no longer cover just the downtown, so $30,000 in funding is a thin piece of the pie. He suggested allowing a business to apply once every 24 months. Keep the program clean and evenly distributed. We should not determine amounts until we know the number of businesses included in the new zoning. Chair Butterfield stated the Fagade Program aligns with City Council priorities. We would expand the program to include Highway 3, have a smaller grant amount or more scrutiny with reviewing applications. Councilmember Bernhjelm suggested for 2022 to include Highway 3 and have $5,000 in Fagade grants as a maximum. One criteria could be if they have received a grant within three years, the funds would go to other applicants. For the Redevelopment Program, have a maximum of$10,000 in grants and more scrutiny with reviewing applications, such as how this would allow them to grow their business and would it increase the number of employees. We would use option two and only have round two if all the money was not allocated or accept applications on a rolling basis for the rest of the year. This allows for Council budgeting to catch up. At the end of the year we will know if the EDA has more funding for next year. For 2022 programs, staff should add Highway 3, note whether it is a building owner or tenant, lower the Fagade grant maximum amount to possibly$5,000, ranking criteria should include the number of years the business has received a grant,will it expand their business,will it expand the number of employees. This item should be brought back to the October/November meeting. Member Simmons felt the EDA should have input on criteria. The business should be provided with a score card as to how their application will be ranked. Criteria should also include whether they are considered a small business according to their gross sales through the Small Business Association. Criteria should also include whether the work is a safety upgrade. For 2021, Councilmember Bernhjelm felt no additional funding should be provided to the Redevelopment Program. For the Fagade Program, we could provide additional funding if we define a window to open applications and have that period until July 1, 2021, and use the criteria discussed to award grants. The rest of the EDA members were not in favor of adding funds to either program. MOTION by Bernhjelm, second by Hudlemeyer to not allow additional funding for either program. APIF,MOTION CARRIED. EDA Minutes(Regular) April 22,2021 Page 4 Mayor Hoyt asked staff to identify the number of new businesses included in the downtown with the new zoning and the number of businesses that have received grants recently including CDBG grants. b. City Council Update/Member Roundtable Additional CARES dollars are being allocated. The downtown sidewalk project has been approved. A new development south of the fire station on Denmark has been approved. We have hired a new Parks and Rec Director. Interviews for the new Community Development Director will be May 3, 2021. There will be a question on the school district survey asking if residents would support a new recreation facility. At the May meeting approval for allocating funds for wayfinding signs, banners and holiday decor will be on the agenda. C. BR&E Update—2021 Plan The Business Retention and Expansion (BR&E)program was finalized in March 2020, but was paused due to COVID. The BR&E subcommittee met in September 2020 and approved a short-term modification of the program which included an online survey of COVID related questions which was open to all businesses in Farmington. In October 2020, 50 business responses were received and those results were reviewed at the November and December 2020 EDA meetings. The BR&E program is now gearing up for implementation. The traditional BR&E program is based on business assessment surveys and in- person business visits to address concerns and gather data for bigger policy decisions,programs and discussions to support Farmington businesses. Businesses who answered"yes" or"unsure" in the Fall 2020 BR&E survey will influence what businesses to visit in the initial program launch. There will be 2-3 visitors for in-person business visits consisting of staff, EDA, City Council to start, then include Dakota County Chamber of Commerce, citizen volunteers, various local/regional organizations, etc. Business visitor training will be provided before going on visits. Staff will distribute an online survey one week prior to the visit and notify business visitors of the online survey responses and issues to address while on the visit. Each visit will be an hour or less. Businesses will be provided with a questionnaire before the visits as preparation. A leave behind gift will be given to the business. Thank you notes will be sent immediately after the visit and there will be medium and long-term follow up. The goal for 2021 is 50 business visits, averaging two per week from June through November. Monthly updates will be provided to the EDA. In November, staff will launch Favor Farmington 2.0 with an online map of businesses. December will be used to prepare for 2022. Councilmember Bernhjelm was impressed with the number of businesses to visit in 2021. She hopes to participate as much as possible. Chair Butterfield stated this is not a one year thing. In year two we can keep a scale and a general set of questions and compare year to year. He would like to revisit this again after the May visits. The timing will be good for the start of the new Community EDA Minutes(Regular) April 22,2021 Page 5 Development Director. We should be able to do two visits/week. Mayor Hoyt asked how many surveys were sent. There were 226 mailings. He asked if staff attempted to get to the 176 who did not respond. It was a Fall 2020 survey, so staff was not too worried because the program would launch in 2021. Chair Butterfield felt this was a good response rate for an initial survey. The engagement came from long time businesses. Councilmember Bernhjelm asked that the City Administrator include the business visit schedule in his weekly update to City Council. Staff will set up meetings month by month. Chair Butterfield reminded everyone the visit should focus on their business. 9. DIRECTOR'S REPORT a) April Director's Report There have been a couple joint City Council/Planning Commission meetings on the 2040 Comp Plan. The next EDA meeting is May 27, 2021. The agenda will include a purchase agreement for the Riste lot. Councilmember Bernhjelm reminded members to direct any questions to Community Development Specialist Swift and she will forward to the appropriate staff person. The May agenda will also include finances and a proposed budget recommendation to the City Council for 2022 and the Rambling River Center Plaza allocation. 10.

Attest: EDA Executive Director EDA Chairperson Date: Date: 4 CITY OF O 430 Third St., Farmington, MN 55024 FARMINGTON © 651-28o-6800 OFarmington MN.gov TO: Economic Development Authority FROM: Kalley Swift, Community Development Specialist SUBJECT: Public Hearing to Consider Sale of the EDA Owned "Riste Lot" at 209 Oak Street DATE: June 17, 2021 INTRODUCTION/DISCUSSION The EDA owns a small vacant lot(0.08 acres) in downtown Farmington commonly referred to as the "Riste Lot" located at 209 Oak Street directly west of the Larson and Exchange Bank Building.A location map for 209 Oak Street is attached. The property was originally acquired and demolished by the H RA/EDA of Farmington in 2007 using a combination of Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) funds and CDA Redevelopment Incentive Grant(RIG) dollars. The property is currently zoned B-2 (Downtown Business). Since 2007,there have been discussions at the EDA and City Council level about selling this property for private redevelopment. An Economic Development Authority may sell and convey property owned by it within the city if it determines that the sale and conveyance are in the best interests of the city and its people and that the transaction furthers its general plan of economic development. Since the completion of the Downtown Redevelopment Plan in 2016, the EDA has had discussions about selling this parcel to align with the strategies and opportunities outlined within the Downtown Redevelopment Plan.This includes redeveloping vacant and underutilized sites downtown.The Plan outlines that redevelopment in the downtown core is focused on retaining, reinvesting, and reinvigorating underutilized buildings, sites, and outdoor public spaces. As outlined in the Downtown Redevelopment Plan,the Riste Lot is specifically called out for redevelopment as a current vacant and underutilized site. The Downtown Redevelopment Plan provides direction for future redevelopment while leaving room for flexibility and individual expression as part of the redevelopment process for creating a varied and dynamic downtown environment.The Downtown Redevelopment Plan further outlines how redevelopment of individual sites will be primarily dependent upon property owners who are interested and willing to pursue redevelopment or to sell their property to developers who are interested in redevelopment.There may be opportunities for private property owners to partner with the city to successfully achieve the redevelopment goals of this plan and the property owner. Homestead Community Church acquired a conditional use permit by the Planning Commission in March 2015 to operate a church in the B-2 (Downtown Business) zoning district within the Exchange Bank and Larson Buildings located at 344 Third Street and 213 Oak Street. Since the purchase of this property, Homestead Community Church has invested in the property with fagade improvements and interior renovations. I n December 2018, representation from Homestead Community Church was present at the EDA meeting to express an interest in acquiring the Riste Lot. They have been in contact with city staff frequently regarding the purchase of the Riste Lot since then. Homestead Community Church is now seeking to finalize the purchase of the Riste Lot for the purposes of constructing a brick patio with outdoor furniture(tables and chairs), an open green space, a pergola, and a possible children's playground. Pole iron fencing will be at the entrance of the site(see Exhibit"B" Depiction of the Project in the Contract). As outlined in the Contract for Private Development, Homestead Community Church will be required to file a lot combination request with the County to ensure that the properties remain under common ownership.The Exchange Bank Building, Larson Building, and Riste Lot will be combined and included within a single parcel. Regarding the sale of the Riste Lot, an appraisal was conducted in September 2020 with a fair market value of$35,000. A purchase price of$35,000 was agreed upon at this time. Due to Dakota County and H UD requirements, an appraisal must be less than six months old at the time of the sale, so an updated appraisal with a fair market value of$36,000 was conducted in May 2021. Since CDBG dollars were used to fund part of the acquisition and demolition of the Riste building,there are repayment provisions to the CDBG Program upon the sale of the property to a private entity. 76.9% of the dollars used to acquire and demolish the Riste Lot in 2007 were CDBG dollars. When the Riste Lot is sold,the EDA will be obligated to pay 76.9%of the current fair market value of the property back into the CDBG Program. 76.9%of the $36,000 fair market value is$27,684 to be reimbursed back to the Dakota County CDA CDBG Program fund if the property is sold to Homestead Community Church at this time. City staff encourages the sale of the Riste Lot at this time to Homestead Community Church.The sale of the Riste Lot to Homestead Community Church furthers the plans of the Downtown Redevelopment Plan by allowing a private entity to reinvest and redevelop a vacant lot in downtown to an accessory outdoor use which helps create a varied and dynamic downtown environment.The EDA should have a conversation as to whether or not they wish to sell the Riste Lot for the proposed use for$35,000 or if they wish continue to hold onto this piece of property until a later date for a different redevelopment use. The EDA should discuss if the sale of the property is in the best interest of the city, its people, and if the transaction furthers its general plan of economic development as outlined in the Downtown Redevelopment Plan. ACTION REQUESTED The EDA must hold a public hearing to consider the sale of the Riste Lot at 209 Oak Street to Homestead Community Church. Pastor Kristie Kerr will be present at the meeting and will represent Homestead Community Church if there any questions or concerns from the EDA. After the public hearing,the EDA should make a motion to approve the sale of the Riste Lot and adopt the attached Contract For Private Development and Resolution Authorizing Sale of Property.

Date of Report: May 4, 2021 Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 Page 9 SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL REPORT USPAP defines Scope of Work as The type and extent of research and analyses in an assignment. For each appraisal,appraisal review and appraisal consulting assignment, an appraiser must: 1)Identify the problem to be solved, 2)Determine and perform the scope of work necessary to develop credible assignment results;and 3)Disclose the scope of work in the report. 1) Provide a reasonably supported value opinion as it relates to the intended use&scope. Per assignment request (see addenda for engagement letter), the following degree of research 2) and analysis has been made. The narrative format used is an Appraisal Report, which is intended to comply with the reporting requirements set forth under Standards Rule 2-2a of USPAP. See individual approaches for further detail. The scope of work for this appraisal includes: • a) Property Identification: Public record, plat maps, zoning maps and aerial photographs were used to identify the subject property. • b) Property Inspection: A viewing of the subject property (was not conducted for this assignment, Nagell has previously viewed the subject property). Physical factors: Based on property viewing and conversations with the client, city and county officials. Lot size is based on county information. Economic Factors: Consisted of gathering of information from market experts, city and/or county offices, and internet about the region, community, neighborhood, zoning, utilities, and any pending projects in the area that may affect the subject property. 3) • c) Extent of Data Researched: Sales data of competing properties within the subject market area were given primary consideration. The most relevant data is used in this report. Sources include, appraiser data files, assessor, internet, developers, agents, MLS, periodicals, in-office library, etc. In addition, during the course of appraisal practice and of this appraisal process, the appraiser has had ongoing discussions with market participants (buyers, sellers, property managers, real estate agents/brokers, appraisers, etc.) and/or viewed market data in relation to how the current real estate market may impact the subject value. The appraiser has not researched the title or ownership records. • d)Type and Extent of Analysis Applied at Opinions or Conclusions: An extensive review of market data was performed. The most recent, similar and proximate data has been used. The data used will be adjusted on a grid. Reasonable and appropriate collection, verification, analysis and viewing has been performed in the valuation approaches, given the purpose and intended use of the report. A final value opinion will be discussed and correlated. The data used was obtained from sources considered credible, yet its accuracy is not guaranteed. If found otherwise, value could differ. Page 10 Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 PROPERTY RIGHTS APPRAISED Real property ownership consists of a group of distinct rights. There are two primary property rights, Fee Simple and Leased Fee (as defined by The Appraisal of Real Estate, 1311 Edition, Appraisal Institute). Fee Simple Interest: Absolute ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate, subject only to the limitations imposed by the governmental powers of taxation, eminent domain, police power, and escheat. Note: This would typically reflect an owner-occupied property. When the property rights appraised are the unencumbered fee simple interest of the real estate, the appraised value is subject to normal easements for drainage, public streets and utilities, if any. The effect of any existing mortgage or delinquent taxes on the subject property has not been considered in this appraisal. Leased Fee Interest: The ownership interest held by a lessor (landlord), which includes the right to the contract rent specified in the lease plus reversionary right when the lease expires. The lessor's interest in a property is considered a leased fee interest regardless of the duration of the lease, specified rent, the parties to the lease, or any of the terms in the lease contract. A leased property, even one with rent that is consistent with market rent, is appraised as a leased fee interest, not as a fee simple interest. Even if the rent of the lease terms are not consistent with market terms, the lease fee interest must be given special consideration and is appraised as a leased fee interest. (The Appraisal of Real Estate, 13th Edition, Page 114) The subject is vacant commercial land; therefore, the appraised value reflects the fee simple interest. PROPERTY COMPONENTS APPRAISED Real Estate: The appraised value includes the real estate value opinion. The methods utilized for the real estate valuation include: • Sales Comparison Approach FF&E: Furniture, Fixtures, &Equipment(FF&E):The appraised value does not include any values of fixtures, furnishings and equipment. The appraised value reflects real estate only. Business Value: There is no business value included in the appraised value.

Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 Page 13 REGIONAL DATA Metro Area Minneapolis-Saint Paul is the most populous urban area in Minnesota and is composed of 186 cities and townships. Built around the Mississippi, Minnesota and St. Croix rivers, the area is also nicknamed The Twin Cities for its two largest cities, Minneapolis and Saint Paul. Saint Paul is the second largest city in Minnesota, as well as the state capital. The area is part of a larger U.S. Census division named Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-Wl, the country's 16th-largest metropolitan area, composed of eleven counties in Minnesota and two counties in Wisconsin. This larger area, in turn, is enveloped in the U.S. Census combined statistical area called Minneapolis-St. Paul-St. Cloud, MN-WI with an estimated population of 3.5 million people in 2006, ranked the 13th most populous in the U.S. In both of the fully developed central cities—Minneapolis and St. Paul—the population has declined due to smaller household sizes, yet growth in other areas of their counties has been more than offsetting.

Commercial rates are around 3.5% to 5.0%. Rates are expected to be relatively stable for the foreseeable future. The state of the macro economy (national, state, etc.) declined from its peak in 2006, but in 2010 began showing signs of recovery. Many economists are terming 2007 through 2009 as "The Great Recession". New construction labor costs have steadily increased, along with material costs as well. Overall, construction costs are less competitive to what they were 5 to 6 years ago. Generally, when vacancy is over 10%, new commercial/industrial construction is slow. Listing prices have been increasing steadily since 2012 +/- and are starting to approach peak levels similar to the market in 2006, which was a period of high seller expectations. However, recent buyer and seller expectations regarding value and list prices appear to be trending towards equilibrium. Although well diversified, the TCMA and surrounding Minnesota economy is not immune to the recent soft/declining trends of the overall economy.

Construction slowed in 2018 but picked up again in 2019. Properties in strong locations have generally experienced lower vacancy relative to the overall market. That said, building design and functionality can impact a specific property's performance, even in a good area. The COVID-19 pandemic has slowed absorption to a crawl.

Page 18 Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 Regional Data—continued The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (MN DEED) provides a county profile for each county in the state. The profile includes information on population, income, demographics, labor force, etc. Based on the data, it appears that Dakota County is growing, both in terms of population and income. Eagan is the largest city in the county and provides a strong economic base, although Burnsville and Apple Valley area similarly large. Surrounding suburban communities as well host small, medium, and large companies that also contribute to the strong economy of the area. Most new development has been occurring in the northern and central portions of the county. The southern area is more rural with an agricultural economic base. Mendota Heights is commonly considered an average to good community with appealing amenities. The following pages will include the MN DEED report.

Farmington had experienced significant residential growth from 2003-2007; commercial and industrial uses also increased. However, as a result of an oversupply of new residential units and the declining economy, new development ended in 2008 and property values (residential and commercial) declined. Since 2011, the market is showing signs of stabilization. Farmington has a reputation as a stable community, access to major shopping and support facilities are located within the city, as well as nearby communities including Lakeville to the west/north and Apple Valley to the north.

HIGHEST AND BEST USE Highest and best use as defined in The Appraisal of Real Estate, Thirteenth Edition, by the Appraisal Institute, is: "The reasonably probable and legal use of vacant land or an improved property, that is physically possible, legally permissible, appropriately supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest value." Highest and best use is analyzed in two ways, site as vacant and site as improved. Typically,there are four criteria in highest and best use analysis Legally permissible uses What uses are allowed by zoning? Physically possible uses What uses are physically possible on the site? Financially feasible use Which possible and permissible uses will produce a positive return? Maximally productive use Of the financially feasible uses, which use produces the highest return warranted by the market(the ideal improvements)? Site as Vacant: Among all reasonable, alternative uses, the use that yields the highest present land value, after payments are made for labor,capital,and coordination. The use of a property based on the assumption that the parcel of land is vacant or can be made vacant by demolishing any improvements. The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal,Fifth Edition,by the Appraisal Institute. Legally Permissible Uses: The subject is currently zoned B-2 Downtown Business and guided for commercial. The current zoning allows for a variety of potential uses including office, retail, commercial, restaurant, etc. Mixed-uses allowed with a conditional use. Physically Possible Uses: The physical characteristics of the site appear suitable for development. Utilities are available. The subject has good access and average visibility/exposure along Oak Street. The subject would allow for a number of potential uses.Appraised value assumes subject site is buildable. Financially Feasible Uses: Typically, surrounding uses, market demand, and availability of financing drive financially feasible uses. Surrounding Uses: Directly to the north, east, and south are commercial related properties. Located to the west is a single-level office property with residential beyond. Given the surrounding uses a commercial related use would be logical. Financing: Over the past 3+ years, financing has loosened up since the "Great Recession". However, borrowers typically must be well qualified with 20% to 30% down. For new projects, lenders commonly require significant pre-leasing activity for multi-tenant properties. Market Demand: The subject area is mostly built-up with good demand in the immediate area The subject has limited traffic visibility/exposure. Financially Feasible Uses: Commercial related use Maximally Productive Use: Based on the above discussion, zoning, exposure, and access, a commercial related use would be logical. Given there is a gap between cost and value, consideration should be given to timing of any new development. Therefore, the highest and best use of the subject is considered to be for commercial related development as market demand warrants and zoning allows. Property would likely be a zero-lot line (similar to downtown buildings in the immediate area), and potentially could have multilevel layout. It would be logical to apply for a mixed-use to allow for apartments on the upper level. Given shape of subject it would likely be developed as a single site. Most probable buyer would be a developer that would either rent or owner-occupy the subject. Another potential buyer could be an adjacent property owner wanting to expand their building or parking area. Page 42 Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 COST APPROACH The Cost Approach is not applied as the subject is vacant land only. INCOME APPROACH The subject is vacant commercial land which is rarely leased in the market. Due to limited rent rates and capitalization rates the Income Approach was considered not reliable and was therefore not applied. Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 Page 43 SALES COMPARISON APPROACH The Sales Comparison Approach to Value is predicated upon sales of properties with similar characteristics as the subject. The primary premise of this approach is that the market value of the subject is directly related to the prices of competing properties after adjustment. Adjustments are made in an effort to account for significant differences. Supply and Demand: Sales in the market result from negotiations between buyers, sellers and lenders. Buyers reflect market demand and sellers supply. If demand is high, prices tend to increase, if it is low, prices usually decrease. Substitution: The principle of substitution holds that the value of a property tends to be set by the price paid to acquire a substitute property of similar utility and desirability within a reasonable amount of time (The Appraisal of Real Estate, 14th Edition). The Sales Comparison Approach is less reliable if substitute properties are not available in the market. There are adequate sales to apply the sales comparison approach and formulate a reliable indication of market value. Balance: The market tends to force a balance between supply and demand. Balance can change due to shifts in population, variations in purchasing power, consumer tastes and preference and time. Externalities: When possible, select comparables with similar location, economic conditions and support facilities. The Following Outline Is Used In The Sales Comparison Approach: -A location map of the comparable sales. -Comparable sales are listed. -An adjustment grid using the comparable sales. -A discussion of adjustment and conclusion of value. Page 44 Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 Comparable Location Map Primary Comparable Selection/Search Criteria: • Commercial properties with competing exposure, scope expanded as needed • Sale date of January 1, 2016+, older sales may be considered if appropriate • 1,500 SF to 10,000 SF +/-, properties outside of range will be considered based on proximity • Data from competing communities • In some instances, older data and/or data from competing communities will be utilized due to proximity to the subject and other characteristics similar to the subject.

Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 Page 55 Sales Comparison Approach—Continued Discussion of Adjustments Property Rights: Refers to the ownership interest conveyed at the time of sale. Properties with leases or other encumbrances in place can sell for more or less than comparable properties that sell fee simple interest. • The sale prices of the comparable properties were not impacted by existing lease terms (if any). Financing: The impact financing may have had on the sale price, favorable interest rate or term. • All sales were cash or estimated to be near or at market rates. Conditions of sale: Reflects non-market conditions, which may or may not have impacted the sale price, such as differing motivations of buyer or seller(related parties, distressed or liquidation sale, listings, pendings, occupancy, assemblage, etc.), impending eminent domain proceedings, influence due to tax ramifications, or lack of market exposure. • Comparable 8 adjusted for bank ownership. Market conditions: • The sales data did not indicate a time adjustment over sold comparables. Location: This adjustment is based on the appraiser's judgment. It takes into consideration surrounding land uses, intended use, neighborhood characteristics, traffic, exposure and access. • Comparable 1 adjusted for softer commercial market. • Comparable 2 adjusted for good exposure and location near an intersection. • Comparable 3 adjusted for superior community. • Comparable 4 adjusted for superior community location. • Comparable 5 adjusted for smaller community • Comparable 6 adjusted for inferior surrounding uses. • Comparable 7 adjusted for superior location and river amenity. • Comparable 8 adjusted for outstate area. • Comparable 9 adjusted for good highway exposure. Zoning/Use: Page 56 Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952,544.8966 • Comparables have competing zoning, no adjustment. Sales Comparison Approach—Continued Physical Characteristics: Shape and topography adjustments reflect the market preference for rectangular and level parcels, which optimize development potential. • Comparable 4 adjusted for appealing development appeal, due to good frontage along Elm Street and alley access. • Comparable 9 adjusted for good development appeal with two site layout and corner setting. Improvements: • Comparables considered competing, no adjustment warranted. Utilities: • Comparables all have access to public utilities, no adjustment warranted. Site Size: • Adjustments recognize larger parcels of land typically sell for less per SF than smaller sites. Conclusion: The comparables used are rated to be the most indicative of data analyzed and bracket the subject value. Other sales reviewed were older, further and/or needed more adjustment. Adjustments are made on a per square foot basis. The comparables utilized in this analysis each have several similar characteristics in common with the subject. While none are totally identical to the subject, each represents a viable alternative to a prospective buyer of the subject property and, after adjustment, can be utilized as an indicator of market value for the subject property. Indicator Un-adiusted Price per SF Adiusted Price per SF Range $3.34 - $22.65 $5.43 - $15.86 Average $11.52 $10;24 Median $9.84 $9.94 Variance in data is not uncommon for smaller site sizes in fringe communities. Based on the subject characteristics, a rate near the mid-range is considered appropriate. Site Size(SF) Value per SF Total Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 Page 57 3,703 SF $9.75 $36,104 '001111 W11 ' ' RECONCILIATION Indicated Value by Cost Approach Not Applied Indicated Value by Sales`'Comparison Approach $36,000 Indicated Value by Income Approach Not Applied The Cost Approach to value was considered less reliable as the subject is vacant land. The Direct Sales Comparison Approach to value analyzed recent sales of vacant land as compared with the characteristics of the subject property. Adjustments were made to the comparables to make them as similar to the subject as possible. This results in an indication of market value at which a typical buyer would be willing to pay for the subject property. Quantity and quality of dated rated to be fair, very few sales in downtown areas with small sizes sell. The Income Approach is typically preferred for income-producing properties. The reliability of this approach is a function of accuracy of rent and expense data and the capitalization rate. Limited to nil available data on land properties such as the subject as they are typically not rented. Therefore, the Income Approach was not applied. Conclusion: All weight given to the Sales Comparison Approach: NOTE: Changes in the economy, market, building, use, lease, and/or management, etc., subsequent to the effective appraisal date could impact market value. Typically, unstable and/or distressed properties with unusual conditions and/or motivated sellers tend to sell below market value. Based on market observations and discussions with various market experts, bank owned discounts can range from 10%-50%+. The appraised value opinion is considered to be indicative of the most probable price within the subject market(see Market Value Definition in rear of report). The actions of buyers and sellers operating in said market generally reflects a bell curve,with most participants and prices in the middle of the curve. However, there are right and left tail market participants that may have a different perception of value than most buyers/sellers resulting in a willingness to pay more or less than the appraised value opinion. Seller may be fortunate and find a buyer who needs this property and is willing to pay more,conversely there could only be buyers that are towards the left,that are willing to pay less.

DEFINITIONS MARKET VALUE - The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: (A)buyer and seller are typically motivated; (B) both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what they consider their own best interest; (C)a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; (D) payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto;and (E) the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold, unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.

Value assumes no hazardous or structural conditions exist. Value assumes any abandoned wells will be properly sealed. If any of these conditions exist the appraised value could differ significantly. EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPTIONS & HYPOTHETICAL CONDITIONS As stated by USPAP; Extraordinary Assumption: An assumption, directly related to a specific assignment, which, if found to be false, could alter the appraiser's opinions of conclusions. Appraised value assumes soils are stable and buildable, if found to be otherwise appraised value could differ. No survey provided, appraised value assumes the subject site is 100% buildable and does not require any major site improvements prior to development, if found to be otherwise appraised value could differ. Per request, the appraiser did not inspect the subject property. Appraiser previously inspected the property. If any of the described herein is found to be otherwise, value could differ. Hypothetical Condition: That which is contrary to what exists but is supposed for the purpose of analysis. None Page 60 Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS 1. The appraisers assume no responsibility for matters of a legal nature affecting the property appraised or the title thereto, nor do the appraisers render any opinion as to the title, which is assumed to be good and marketable. The property is appraised as though under responsible ownership and good management. 2. The furnished legal description is assumed to be correct. 3. Any sketch in the report may show approximate dimensions and is included to assist the reader in visualizing the property. The appraisers have made no survey of the property. It is assumed unless otherwise noted that no survey has been viewed and that all improvements are located within the legally described property. 4. The appraisers are not required to give testimony or appear in court because of having made the appraisal with reference to the property in question, unless arrangements have been previously made therefore. 5. The distribution of the total valuation in this report between land and improvements applies only under the reported highest and best use of the property. The allocations of value for land and improvements must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if so used. 6. The appraisers assume that there are no hidden or unapparent conditions of the property, subsoil, or structures, which would render it more or less valuable. The appraisers assume no responsibility for such conditions, or for engineering, which might be required to discover such factors. 7. Unless otherwise stated in this report, the existence of hazardous materials, which may or may not be present on the property, was not observed by the appraiser. The appraiser has no knowledge of the existence of such materials on or in the property. The appraiser, however, is not qualified to detect such substances. The presence of substances such as asbestos, urea-formaldehyde foam insulation, radon gas, or other potentially hazardous materials may affect the value of the property. The value estimate is predicated on the assumption that there is no such material on or in the property that would cause a loss in value. No responsibility is assumed for any such conditions, or for any expertise or engineering knowledge required to discover them. The client is urged to retain an expert in this field, if desired. 8. Information, estimates, and opinions furnished to the appraisers, and contained in the report, were obtained from sources considered reliable and believed to be true and correct. However, the appraisers can assume no responsibility for accuracy of such items furnished the appraisers. 9. Disclosure of the contents of the appraisal report is governed by the Bylaws and Regulations of the professional appraisal organizations with which the appraisers are affiliated.

Nagell Appraisal Incorporated 1952.544.8966 Page 61 Assumptions & Limiting Conditions—continued 10. The appraisers have no present or contemplated future interest in the property appraised; and neither the employment to make the appraisal, nor the compensation for it, is contingent upon the appraised value of the property. The appraisers have no personal interest or bias with respect to the parties involved. 11. The appraiser has personally inspected the subject site (unless noted otherwise). The comparable sales data has been viewed via aerial maps, photographs and/or online street views along with file pictures, when available. To the best of the appraiser's knowledge and belief, all statements and information in this report are true and correct, and the appraisers have not knowingly withheld any significant information. 12. The reported analyses, opinions, and conclusions are limited only by the reported assumptions and limiting conditions, and is our personal, unbiased professional analyses, opinions, and conclusions. Our analyses, opinions, and conclusions were developed, and this report has been prepared, in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. The appraisal is for the sole use of the named client. 13. The Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") became effective January 26, 1992. We have not made a specific compliance survey and analysis of the property to determine whether or not it is in conformity with the various detailed requirements of the ADA. It is possible that a compliance survey of the property, together with a detailed analysis of the requirements of the ADA, could reveal that the property is not in compliance with one or more of the requirements of the Act. If so, this fact could have a negative effect upon the value of the property. Since we have no direct evidence relating to this issue, we did not consider possible non-compliance with the requirements of ADA in estimating the value of the property. 14. This appraisal assignment was not based on a requested minimum valuation or specific valuation or approval of a loan. 15. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the reported analysis, opinions, and conclusions were developed, and this report was prepared in conformity with the requirements of the Code of Professional Ethics and the Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice of the Appraisal Institute. 16. The appraised value opinion assumes all leases (if any) are current and paid in full as of the effective date of the appraisal. 17. Excel grids and tables may have slight deviations due to rounding, which may have a nominal impact on value. 18. The appraised value opinion assumes all formulas used in the Excel grids throughout the report are accurate. 19. Unless noted, value assumes no apparent adverse site, building or zoning issues or conditions. 20. Site and building sizes are based on public record, data services, client and/or appraiser measurement at the time of appraisal and are considered reliable, but not guaranteed.Actual sizes herein could vary if made by an engineer/surveyor/contractor. 21. Because market and property conditions may change rapidly, the appraised value set forth in this appraisal should not be relied on after thirty days from the date of the report. 22. If any of the above if found to be different, value could change.

For much of its history, the area viewed as downtown today was a freestanding rural downtown that served as the community's commercial, civic,and cultural center.As the Twin Cities metro area has grown and expanded its suburbs outward to Farmington,downtown Farmington's context has changed dramatically. Downtown's historic role as the most central, convenient commercial and civic destination for residents is now confronting major competition from new commercial areas emerging within Farmington and neighboring communities. With a growing portion of Farmington residents living north of downtown,and drawn toward destinations nearer to them or closer in to the metro area, downtown is increasingly viewed as being at the edge, less convenient, and irrelevant to the overall community. The purpose of the Downtown Redevelopment Plan is to analyze downtown's current and future challenges and provide a shared vision for downtown that guides reinvestment efforts by both the private and public sectors. 4 Figure 1: Project Study Area tr i y P M G Win' i ` $ J y, i i_ 7I , 1 i t i � 1 I !l 1 y I I i l 1 1 z• 7. i r .: a .y • h > j rt n Legentl ago n. ------------- FlmagaN DO D.( 0.12 0.18 02 DOWNTOWN STUDY AREA Downtown's traditional commercial district,approximately 3 blocks in length,is located south of Elm Street/Highway 50 and east of the rail line.However,the study area for the downtown redevelopment plan encompasses approximately 20 blocks,including blocks north of Elm Street/Highway 50 and west of the rail line.The downtown study area is bounded by the Vermillion River(north), 1 st Street(west),Walnut Street(south),and 5th Street(east),as shown in the above aerial map.It should be noted that the study area's boundaries are larger than the city's Downtown Commercial Overlay District's boundaries,which have an eastern boundary of 4th Street rather than 5th Street.Also of note,the downtown zoning districts encompass a much larger area,extending north to Main Street,west to Division Street,south to Maple Street,and east to Highway 3.These zoning districts include B-2, RT and R-D. © Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan CURRENT CONDITIONS ANALYSIS This chapter provides a brief overview of downtown Farmington's current conditions, issues,and opportunities.This analysis considers current land uses,planned land uses,zoning districts,historic properties,public property ownership,public parking, current sidewalks and trails.Maps and analysis specific to each of these elements are Q � on the pages that follow. In terms of current development character,the downtown core is lined with commercial storefronts primarily in traditional buildings along both 3rd Street and Oak Street.Unlike many historic downtowns,Farmington is fortunate to have retained downtown streets with solid building frontages.Many downtowns eventually lose some buildings and replace them with surface parking lots on their "Main Street"Surface parking lots front on the 3rd St/Highway 50 intersection,which is the primary entry or gateway into downtown,and the intersection of 3rd St/Spruce St.Changing the development character of the 3rd St/Highway 50 gateway corner to reflect the historic character of downtown is a strategic redevelopment opportunity. Downtown is also fortunate to have retained a number of unique historic buildings clustered near the intersection of 3rd St&Oak St,which are primarily commercial buildings with classic architecture.However,there is also a substantial number of vacant storefronts and buildings,particularly in the historic buildings.Empty storefronts in these iconic downtown buildings represents significant missed opportunities for downtown revitalization. Commitments to keeping downtown the civic and cultural center for the community are evident in the presence of civic assets,including the City Hall,County Library, Rambling River Center,Elementary School,Post Office,and Municipal Liquor Store. Downtown is also home to several community events,including Dew Days,Dazzle Day,Car Show,and the Farmers'Market.The city also has invested in providing quality downtown outdoor public spaces,including the Depot Way Arts Park and streetscape improvements in the downtown core.The downtown streets have features,such as wide sidewalks,decorative pavement,corner bumpouts,benches, and pedestrian lamps,that provide a foundation for creating desirable outdoor gathering spaces.A major gap is the lack of a public park,plaza,or open space in the downtown core east of the rail line. There are a limited number of vacant sites in the downtown core,as well as the downtown edges and riverside districts.These vacant sites,as well as underutilized sites,provide valuable opportunities for the city to attract,guide,and support redevelopment projects that strengthen downtown as a commercial,civic,cultural, and recreational center for the community. An active freight rail line is located on the western edge of the downtown core. Train traffic and noise is a concern for some existing downtown residents.While the city has previously explored the potential for creating a Quiet Zone in Farmington, the significant costs which would be the city's responsibility have prevented the establishment of a Quiet Zone thus far. Crossing of both the rail line and Highway 50 by pedestrians and bicyclists has been identified as a concern.

Preserve the downtown area by retaining historic buildings and features, require high design standards,provide for a diverse mix of community-oriented commercial and cultural activities,promote well-landscaped developments, be pedestrian-friendly,promote the display of public art and encourage community gatherings. The 2030 Land Use Map currently in the city's Comprehensive Plan,shown above, reflects these two strategies,including the expansion of downtown commercial north to the river and east along Highway 50.It also guides the expansion of medium and high density residential through redevelopment around the downtown core.

Issues Vacant commercial buildings/storefronts Vacant sites-Elm St&Hwy 50,Oak&2nd St Current restaurants&bars mix doesn't attract families Casual gathering places are limited,e.g.bakery seating,outdoor seating,no coffee shop,etc. Rail line impacts include frequent train traffic,train noise,and limited number of street and trail connections that can cross the rail line River also limits street and trail connections into downtown Lack of public green space in downtown core Buildings on Highway 50 don't reflect character of historic downtown Downtown is off the beaten path for residents north of downtown,not convenient Not enough unique shops to be a destination for boutique shoppers Not enough destinations to attract residents on a regular basis Identity and awareness of downtown is low within the community Opportunities Reuse of historic commercial buildings and other older buildings on 3rd Street and Oak Street Redevelop vacant and underutilized sites Add park or plaza in downtown core Add connections from downtown to the regional trail system and river Add a riverwalk on south side of river Create a stronger downtown entry from Hwy 50 Improve character of streets,e.g.2nd St,Hwy 50 Add new housing options Create a stronger downtown identity Downtown's Current Conditions Precedents&Inspiration 6�y,A- Strif.-et, Looking lX'esi Toward Milwaukee Depot, 1 NA W# OACV17- 777 t } t r 1 ♦, .. � i 1 1� .11F74nw1�t• S++ r j„,�y,...� ��` ',e�l w 1 1 1 „ � I �• � `�+r.— �"-"C1' � � I �'«R^ _ r 'fit �.�j S _�.. .. . l.r Historic photos of downtown Farmington buildings,streets,and views,including many buildings that still grace downtown today 0 Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan I CHAPTER 02 : REDEVELOPMENT PLAN & INITIATIVES The Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan is intended to provide a shared vision for downtown that guides reinvestment efforts by both the private and public sectors, including key redevelopment opportunities. The vision for downtown has the following guiding principles as its foundation: Preserve and enhance downtown's unique historic character to attract people to gather,visit,shop,work,and live downtown • Reinvigorate downtown as the community's commercial,cultural,and recreational center • Retain and strengthen civic destinations and events already located in downtown • Enhance downtown's walking and biking environment,including connections to the vermillion River,regional trails,parks,and natural areas • Improve downtown's identity and visibility as a desirable and convenient destination for residents as well as visitors from surrounding communities • Focus on redevelopment opportunities in the downtown core first This chapter lays out the community's preferred downtown redevelopment plan,including an illustrative development plan, land use plan,pedestrian and bike circulation plan,parking plan, and public space concepts. Redevelopment initiatives are identified for each of the downtown districts:downtown core,downtown edges, and downtown riverside. 16 Figure 9: Downtown Districts Concept - r a DOWNTOWN DISTRICTS The study area for the downtown redevelopment plan encompasses approximately 20 blocks,including blocks west of the rail line and north of Elm Street/Highway 50.Defining a downtown area can be challenging and often times there are multiple versions of downtown geographic areas within a community.Farmington's current zoning map actually defines an even larger downtown area based on the current extent of the downtown zoning districts:B-2(Downtown Business), R T(Downtown Transitional Mixed Use),and R-D(Downtown Residential).Since the downtown study area is fairly large,diverse in its development character,and includes two major connectivity challenges(Highway 50 and the rail line),this plan establishes five(5)downtown districts as shown above.These downtown districts each have somewhat unique development character and challenges for pursuing the plan's preferred redevelopment vision.The downtown redevelopment plan uses the downtown districts for identification of unique redevelopment initiatives, connectivity improvements,and redevelopment phasing. r� Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan Figure 10: Illustrative Downtown Redevelopment Plan 1 � / r Will 0V VERMtL R i o l - -�, R R R R R ---- } _J G0 TF — �- R ENVELOPMENT SMTEG IES T A Refurhishcurentvacant histOnt&odr -----�- commercial buildings a t R Retain&support improvementsrodvic/ municipal destNanDirsindowntown C.

Active storefronts in unique historic buildings will Redevelopment in the downtown core is focused on retaining,reinvesting,and reinvigorate downtown reinvigorating underutilized buildings,sites,and outdoor public spaces,including the following redevelopment initiatives: A. Refurbish vacant historic buildings and other commercial buildings » Exteriors and interiors,some buildings with restored exteriors are in need of significant interior improvements to be attractive to potential tenants » Downtown's low rental rates for commercial space create a financing — gap for building improvements,so public or non-profit involvement in funding could be critical to jumpstart this initiative B. Proactively support the retention of and improvements to current civic/municipal destinations and expand events in downtown ` » Current civic/municipal destinations include the city hall, library,post office,and liquor store » The municipal liquor store should consider locations in downtown, including existing buildings and a potential new building on a redevelopment site » Current and potential downtown events include Farmers'Market, Dew Days,Car Show,and Dazzle Day,which are important for attracting people to downtown and also serve as a cost-effective form of downtown marketing C.

Redevelopment Plan & Initiatives Precedents&Inspiration DOWNTOWN EDGES REDEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES The downtown edge areas are located east,south,and west of the downtown core area.The east and south edges are primarily single-family residential today. However,the west edge is a mix of single-family residential and outdoor/indoor storage,and manufacturing businesses.There arejust three retail uses within the two edge areas,which are all on Highway 50,and one office use on 4th/Oak St. ,. Redevelopment in the downtown edge areas is focused on two redevelopment initiatives: L. Redevelop sites to provide new housing options in Farmington p� » Redevelop area west of rail line,north and south of Spruce Street, ' with apartments or a mix of apartments and rowhouses Redevelop half block on Walnut Street, between 3rd and 4th Street, with townhouses similar to the north half of the same block M. Improve design of existing commercial sites on Hwy 50 Add landscaping buffers,including trees,between the sidewalk and surface parking areas 11 aa, Precedent housing development types for the Downtown Edge districts Example of improving street edge between surface parking area and sidewalk 0 Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan DOWNTOWN RIVERSIDE REDEVELOPMENT Precedents&Inspiration INITIATIVES The downtown riverside areas are located between the Vermillion River and downtown,north of Highway 50.A key opportunity exists to connect downtown and the river with a riverwalk,trail connections,park expansion,and site redevelopment. Redevelopment in the downtown riverside areas is focused on the following redevelopment initiatives: N. Expand Rambling River Park » To better link downtown and the river's natural area,expand the park south of the river and east of the rail line,and add a new park entry at 3rd &Pine 0. Create a riverwalk on the south side of the river and L 1; connect to the regional trail network (see North Creek I B r Greenway regional trail plan on following page) While there is a trail on the north side of the river,a new trail or riverwalk on the south side of the river could be an added amenity for downtown residents and workers,as well as an added destination r to attract visitors to downtown P. Add a pedestrian/bike bridge over the rail line » The rail line is a major barrier for walking and biking in downtown and near the river,so adding this pedestrian/bike bridge is an important connection for creating a pedestrian/bike trail network in downtown Q. Redevelop Riverside West ,FYI » Redevelop the commercial site furthest from Hwy 50 with residential building(s) next to the river's open space long-term » Redesign the current commercial parking lot driveways as streets to transition the area from a suburban retail site to a place for shopping and living ILI lit R.

The concept above shows Dakota County's current plan for the future North Creek Regional Greenway segment nearest to downtown Farmington. It identifies a proposed local trail connection between the regional trail and downtown that crosses Highway 50 at 1 st Street,which is west of the rail line,then uses 1 st Street and Oak Street to connect to downtown where the rail line crosses Oak Street.The Downtown Redevelopment Plan recommendation is to work with Dakota County on ways for the North Creek Regional Greenway to better connect into downtown Farmington. For example, bringing the regional trail to the south side of the Vermillion River would be preferable for more directly linking downtown to the regional trail.Additionally,safer connections to downtown than the uncontrolled intersection at Highway 50/1 st Street would be Spruce Street west from downtown to the Rambling River Trail (next to the Schmitz Maki hockey arena) or the traffic controlled intersection at Highway 50/3rd Street. ® Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan i►' CHAPTER 03 : MARKET ANALYSIS To ensure that the Downtown Redevelopment Plan's vision, concepts, and initiatives are based in reality, the process of developing this plan includes a high-level market analysis. The limited scope of this market analysis includes the following elements: Retail trade area identification Consumer expenditures analysis Retail gap analysis Housing market analysis These elements are addressed at a general level for the downtown Farmington trade area and specifically for the downtown redevelopmen concepts that were explored during this project. The market analysis was integral to identifying the preferred downtown redevelopment concept, redevelopment site opportunities, priority initiatives,and phasing. 32 FARMINGTON RETAIL TRADE AREA Figure 16 outlines the retail draw area from which the majority of the demand for goods and services in downtown Farmington will be generated.Lakeville is adjacent to Farmington on the west and has continued to increase its level of retail development in support of the large number of households that have been attracted to the community.As most of the retail development in Lakeville is newer, new retail in Farmington is more likely to draw from households in Farmington rather than neighboring suburban communities like Lakeville,Apple Valley and Rosemount.Downtown Farmington is also likely to draw from households in adjacent outlying areas to the east and south.These communities do not have a substantial retail base and are more likely to rely on commercial development in Farmington to support and enhance their ability to obtain retail goods and services within a reasonable drive time of the city. Figure 17 shows retail drive times from downtown Farmington using 5, 10 and 15 minute drive times. The majority of retail customers most likely to be drawn to Farmington are within a 10-minute drive time. POPULATION & HOUSEHOLD GROWTH TRENDS & ESTIMATES The most recent population and household estimates as published by the Metropolitan Council show Farmington is estimated to have 22,386 people and 7,557 households. Average annual growth rates in Farmington over the past four years are about 2%for population and 2%for households,respectively. We anticipate that Farmington has the potential to exceed the Metropolitan Council's 2020 projections for population and households,most likely by 2019. ® Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan Figure 16: Farmington Retail Trade Area - `•.,r1 s - ire rc a r � -- ' ' a a Sava a Burnsville g 1)2nd S i E a APpfd c ,v _ Prescott o Nasttngs Valle Rosemount +ast s,e 4M." --CR 1:E t.R:i 0 I e � Ok{� k 9 $� h J: ?, I;ei strv„ oy N - p CR=2t S ,,R-d0 .y.

Sources:ESRl Inc:Maxfield Research and Consults n&,LLC ® Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan CONSUMER EXPENDITURES ANALYSIS Table 1 presents information on retail expenditures for households located in the Farmington Retail Trade Area. The data was compiled by ESRI Inc.;a national demographics forecasting firm and is derived from national data on household expenditures through the Consumer Survey of Expenditures. The report uses a benchmark index of 100. Proportions above 100 indicate that households in the retail draw area spend proportionally more on items or services in that category than the average US household. Proportions below 100 indicate the opposite--that households spend less than the average US households on those items or services. The table shows that households in the Farmington Retail Trade Area spend more than the average US household in nearly every expenditure category shown on the table. Categories that exhibit the highest proportions above the 100 benchmark are: Child care Home mortgage payments Computer software Vehicle loans Life insurance Major appliances Vehicle rental-travel Airline fares Lodging Other retail goods that are still above the 100 benchmark but not as high as the above categories include: Apparel and services Food away from home Alcoholic beverages Computer hardware Entertainment and recreation Personal care products and services Eye glasses and contact ienses Lawn and garden Housewares and small appliances Market Analysis RETAIL GAPS ANALYSIS In considering businesses that might take advantage of the high proportion of consumer expenditures as identified in these categories,Maxfield Research also completed a retail gaps analysis. The retail gaps analysis identifies the amount of retail sales within the Retail Trade Area,the number of business establishments,and categories where existing or new businesses would be able to capture a portion of sales from the Retail Trade Area that are"leaking"out to other retail areas. This information is presented in Table 2. Table 2 shows that the Farmington Retail Trade Area is currently losing nearly 75 percent of possible retail expenditures to other locations outside of the Retail Trade Area. Farmington is situated on the edge of a more rural area with limited options available in small towns and surrounding townships for the development of commercial retail goods and services. A portion of those households would look to Farmington to be able to satisfy some of that demand.Categories with the highest proportions of leakage outside of the Retail Trade Area are: Stores associated with items specifically for the home such as: - Home furnishings - Furniture - Appliances - Building materials - Lawn and garden supplies Other categories include: - General merchandise stores - Health and beauty stores - Apparel and accessories stores - Giftstores - Limited and full service eating places(coffee shop,small family-friendly restaurant, outdoor seating for bakery) Not all of these categories have store formats that would"fit"or be acceptable in a downtown location,but some do. Gift shops,drugstores,hair salon,kids salon, restaurants(casual and sit-down)are types of businesses that would be able to capture some of the retail demand that is currently leaving the area. HOUSING ANALYSIS The market analysis included a review of two preliminary alternative redevelopment concepts in downtown Farmington.The first concept showed housing in close proximity to the downtown on two to three sites.Housing in close proximity to the downtown will encourage households to patronize establishments in the downtown if they are desirable and attractive as it will be easy to walk or bike to them rather than having to get into a car and drive a distance.A modest amount of housing above downtown retail shops will provide a more energized environment. Young adults,middle-age singles,couples without children,single-parents,and empty-nesters are household types that are often drawn to an urban downtown district. A variety of housing products,medium to high density,could be offered to attract multiple market segments.

Sources SSRI:Maxield Research and Consultirue,LIC Market Analysis 0 MARKET REVIEW OF PREFERRED DOWNTOWN REDEVELOPMENT CONCEPT The Preferred Downtown Redevelopment Concept identifies various parcels in the downtown that may be redeveloped over a period of time and provides suggested development density and use concepts for those parcels. This review comments on the Preferred Redevelopment Concept from a market perspective,identifying potential support and challenges that may arise based on the concept presented. The downtown area was divided into four subareas: Downtown Core Downtown Edges Riverside West Riverside North It is our understanding that parcels in the Downtown Core and the Downtown West Edge are those that would be considered first for redevelopment with the Downtown East Edge and Riverside North following after. Downtown Core Suggested redevelopment in the Downtown Core includes refurbishing existing vacant structures to fill them with new commercial users. Refurbishing typically provides lower cost space to small and medium size businesses that may not have the capital to invest in purchasing a building or want to initially check out a market. Refurbishing can provide updated mechanicals,exterior fa4ade improvements, and a reconfiguration of the interior space to suit a new user. The smaller building sizes allow for multiple users to occupy new space creating a greater variety of businesses and increasing the potential to draw customers to the downtown area. A potential mix could include some restaurant dining,coffee shop,and/or soft goods retailers that are looking for smaller size spaces. The average retail space for small to mid-size users is between about 1,500 and 3,000 square feet. These smaller buildings can provide that niche for the downtown. The larger parcel at the corner of 3rd St and Elm St/Highway 50 is currently proposed for mixed use with commercial at the street level and housing above. The current drawing of the building on this site does not show any off-street parking for this facility. Parking for the housing could be accommodated under the building, but is quite expensive and would most likely require some type of assistance to make that type of design economically feasible. With a number of smaller buildings in the downtown identified for redevelopment,this larger site is more likely to be attractive to a larger national retailer. However,larger national retailers will require off-street parking. Some users may also want a drive-through for their customers. Lease rates for new space in this type of use typically approach $18.00 to$20.00 per square foot. Most small businesses would have difficulty paying lease rates at this level. Providing housing(likely rentals)at this site would be attractive to prospects. The difficulty would be in filling the commercial space at a lease rate that would be Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan economically viable for smaller users if the space were to be subdivided into smaller segments. Visibility and signage for the commercial space would be critical. Most properties that have housing above with retail below have been built in urban districts where there is greater population density. Despite higher densities,many of these properties have also suffered because the design of the mixed-use development favors the housing and not the commercial space. The commercial space often attracts smaller businesses,has higher turnover rates,and higher average vacancy rates. The parcel at 3rd St and Elm St/Highway 50 is a key parcel in the Downtown Core and the"gateway"to the downtown. We believe that it is critical to ensure that the redevelopment of this parcel is successful to support momentum for additional redevelopment in the Downtown Core. At this time,we would not recommend incorporating housing above commercial space at this location. Other sites are available in close proximity to the Downtown Core that can support housing in more traditional formats and would increase the number of people downtown that view it as their shopping district. Two other sites in the Downtown Core have been identified for housing,4th and Elm and directly facing Elm Street between 3rd and 4th Streets. The parcel at 4th and Elm Street could possibly be considered for mixed-use development,but at a later date as other redevelopment is completed and downtown business activity has increased. Rental rates for new apartments in third-tier suburban locations are ranging from $1.50 to$1.70 per square foot,on average. In order to support new rental housing in the downtown,grants or low-interest loans would likely be needed to ensure that the apartments would be economically viable. Downtown Edges Two primary redevelopment sites are shown in the West Edge,north and south of Spruce Street. An open space buffer is shown between the proposed housing and the train tracks. As we understand,there are about ten trains per day that move through downtown Farmington and the train tracks are not a"whistle free"zone. While the open space buffer would provide green area between the proposed rental housing and the train tracks,units situated along the train tracks may be more difficult to lease if tenants are bothered by noise and vibration from the trains. Developing housing on this property is likely to require more insulation,higher quality windows and other sound attenuation practices to mitigate and reduce the noise from the train traffic. To the southeast of the Downtown Core,a parcel is shown at Walnut between 4th and 5th Streets with attached housing. These units may be either rental or ownership. Market analysis identified a potential demand for either rental apartments or ownership multifamily at a modest price point. With the greater number of redevelopment sites identified as apartments,we recommend that this property be targeted for ownership housing,either young to mid-age households or empty-nester households(single-level living). Market Analysis Riverside West Redevelopment parcels in the Riverside West district show a commercial expansion space of 5,000 square feet extending out from the current grocery store. In addition two other redevelopment buildings are shown in this area,one that is proposed to incorporate housing adjacent to a second building that would have commercial uses. There is an existing building that is situated to the east from the two proposed buildings. From the drawing it appears that most of the parking would be located north of the existing building. It is unclear how the access and/or visibility to the new commercial space would be provided. Convenient access and a high level of visibility are usually critical to most retailers. The layout of these new buildings do not appear to improve the access or visibility of the existing building and to a degree,seem not to offer the new space the appropriate level of access or visibility that most retailers would desire. It is our recommendation that this portion of the site may need to be entirely reconfigured to offer the best potential layout for new space. Riverside North Phasing of redevelopment is likely to position the Riverside North district as a later phase of redevelopment,although depending on market conditions,some parcels may redevelop in this area prior to others in some of the other districts. The sites identified for redevelopment are all near the Kemps plant on the north side of the Downtown Core and are proposed to include a multi-story building which could be general occupancy apartments or senior housing. Other parcels show attached housing which may either be rental or ownership. Again,with a significant amount of rental already suggested for other sites in and near Downtown Core,we would recommend that the lower density units be targeted as ownership versus rental. Phasing We recommend that the city initially focus on redevelopment in the Downtown Core as redevelopment incorporates commercial and residential uses. Redevelopment to the west in the Downtown Edge district could accompany redevelopment of the Downtown Core to generate additional household growth that would support new business uses contemplated for the Downtown Core area. Additional redevelopment outside of the Downtown Core should be prioritized regarding funding support that may be requested to encourage new uses. We recommend beginning with the Downtown Core,then moving to the West Edge and East Edge districts,then up to Riverside West and finally over to Riverside North. However,if private developers desire to redevelop various areas outside of the Downtown Core with no public assistance from the community,the city may want to consider the potential benefits of early redevelopment of some sites outside of the Downtown Core if the uses on those sites would complement uses in the Downtown Core. Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan s CHAPTER 04 : IMPLEMENTATION Without clear direction on implementation, the Plan risks remaining little more than a sheaf of papers. This chapter focuses on the keys to achieving the vision presented in this Plan. KEYS TO IMPLEMENTATION The experience of Farmington and other cities shows that several factors are important ingredients for successful redevelopment: Patience.The vision for this Plan cannot be implemented overnight.The time frame for implementing this Plan reflects its evolutionary nature;it looks forward over a period of years.Redevelopment often requires the patience to wait for the right things to happen,rather than making changes simply to be seen doing something. Commitment.Commitment to the Plan and patience go hand-in-hand. This Plan does not simply seek to attract development to downtown;it also seeks to move downtown toward a vision for the future.There is a difference. Commitment to the Plan means the willingness to actively promote public and private investments that achieve the vision,and to deter developments that do not meet the objectives of the Plan.Not all of these decisions will be easy. 42 Public-Private Partnerships.Implementation of this Plan requires a continuation of the public-private partnerships that created the Plan.Both city government and businesses must actively work to achieve the vision for downtown. Financial Reality.A large portion of the implementation chapter discusses roles and responsibilities for the city.Implementing the Plan requires the careful investment of public funds,but the private side of the financial equation must not be overlooked.New development and existing businesses will pay for part of the improvements called for in the Plan.Implementing the Plan seeks to balance the investment in Plan initiatives with the creation of a financial environment that sustains businesses. Strategic Investments.If financial support for the Plan was unlimited,the need for strategic decisions would be less important.With limited funds,though, every expenditure is crucial.It is not possible to undertake immediately all of the initiatives described in this Plan.Needs and opportunities not contemplated in the Plan may arise in the future.Every investment must be evaluated for its impact on achieving the vision for the future of downtown Farmington. The Plan provides a guide for private and public investments to revitalize downtown in a manner consistent with this Plan.The following strategies will assist the city in implementing the Plan and realizing the vision for downtown. ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES There is a temptation to give full responsibility for implementation of the Downtown Redevelopment Plan to Farmington's city staff.Many of the powers and resources needed to undertake the strategies described in this Plan are held by the city.The success of downtown Farmington cannot be made the sole responsibility of city government.Achieving the vision for downtown requires on-going collaboration of both public and private stakeholders.This section describes the roles and responsibilities of key parties. Business and Property Owners While the city influences the physical setting,downtown largely remains a place of private activities. Individual businesses determine the types of goods and services available in downtown.Individual businesses make decisions about how they operate.Property owners decide how to maintain and improve their buildings.Each of these factors plays a role in the long-term success of downtown. City Council The City Council must be committed to implementing this Plan.Important redevelopment powers reside solely with the City Council.Among the powers that may be needed to undertake redevelopment powers in the downtown are: Approving the establishment of TIF districts. Approving the establishment of special service districts and levying service charges on properties in the district. Levying special assessments for public improvements. Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan Issuance of general obligation bonds to finance redevelopment and improvement projects. The City Council must be engaged in the redevelopment process and be prepared to take action as needed.Actions by the City Council can enhance the downtown in other ways.Some examples include: Keeping and adding community events to make downtown a focal point. Keeping civic institutions concentrated in downtown. Avoiding subsidizing non-downtown projects that include businesses that should be located in downtown. Providing staff capacity and resources needed to plan and undertake projects in downtown. EDA The Farmington Economic Development Authority(EDA)should play a key role in implementing the Plan.Many municipal development powers for redevelopment are given to the EDA(using the powers of a housing and redevelopment authority). Additionally,FDAs often have more time to focus on plan implementation than a City Council. Some important EDA powers include: Acquiring property. Making loans. Constructing and operating public facilities. Establishing TIF districts. The section"Using the HRA Act"at the end of this chapter explains the steps to better access statutory redevelopment powers. Downtown Partnerships Building partnerships and collaborative teams,both internally at the city and externally with stakeholder agencies,will enable the city to leverage everyone's interests and needs related to downtown.Internally,it is important that city departments work collaboratively on planning,programming,and investing in downtown improvements.For example,new trails and a plaza/park in downtown impacts the community development,parks and recreation,and municipal services departments,at a minimum.Externally,the city needs to partner with other agencies with jurisdictional authority or property ownership in downtown,such as Dakota County(library,highway,community development agency),School District, and MN Dept.of Natural Resources. Implementation w M 4 AU21 t f GETTING STARTED-DOWNTOWNAMON PLAN Implementation of the Downtown Redevelopment The use of an annual Downtown Action Plan keeps an Plan is not a single action.

Implementation LAND USE CONTROLS The city manages land use with several different tools.The primary tools are the city's Comprehensive Plan and the adopted Zoning Ordinance.Existing land use controls should be reviewed and revised as necessary to ensure consistency with this Plan.This step allows development to occur that fits the Plan.These modifications will also prevent land uses that do not conform with the Downtown Redevelopment Plan. Comprehensive Plan The Plan for the revitalization of downtown should be made part of the Comprehensive Plan either by incorporation into the document or by reference. The city's 2030 Comprehensive Plan sets the long-term framework for development within the entire community.Based upon the 2030 Comprehensive Plan,other land use controls such as the Zoning Ordinance are created.These zoning regulations, for example,must be consistent with the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and in that way the city ensures that development conforms to the community's goals.The currently adopted 2030 Comprehensive Plan does acknowledge redevelopment of downtown and does recognize that a mix of land uses,including residential,would be acceptable. As a result of the Downtown Redevelopment Plan's vision and illustrative plan, future land use designation changes are recommended to the 2030 Land Use Plan Map in the city's 2030 Comprehensive Plan,which are identified on the following page 21. Zoning Zoning Map. In order to ensure consistency between the land use plan map and the zoning map,the city should consider potential changes to the zoning map, including the following: Change B-2 zoning east of 4th Street to R T. Change B-3 zoning west of rail line,north and south of Spruce Street,to R-5. Change B-2 zoning west of rail line and adjacent to the Vermillion River to R-5. Change B-3 zoning east of rail line,and along Pine Street,to R-5. Downtown Commercial Overlay District Design Standards.The city has established a downtown overlay district that has required design standards for all new construction,renovations,or additions of commercial buildings.To implement the Downtown Redevelopment Plan,it is recommended that the city consider the following changes to the overlay district's design standards: Make the design standards applicable to multi-family buildings,notjust commercial buildings. Expand the overlay district's boundaries east to 5th Street to be consistent with the boundaries of the Downtown Redevelopment Plan. While the B-2 zoning district is exempt from providing off-street parking spaces, this exemption or a reduced off-street parking quantity standard should be Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan considered for the entire Downtown Redevelopment Plan study area which includes the R T(Downtown Transitional Mixed Use)zoning district. » Specify that the building facade material and design standards apply to facades visible from an alley,mid-block pedestrian way,off-street parking area,or public open space. Strengthen the standard regarding blank windowless walls(E)(3),such as requiring facade treatments that compensate for the lack of windows.

Implementation ATTRACTING INVESTMENT The Downtown Redevelopment Plan will be implemented by attracting private investment to downtown.This investment will come from property owners and from new development partners for the city. Solicitation of Proposals The planning process has raised awareness about the potential for revitalization in Downtown Farmington.For the purposes of this Plan,redevelopment means demolition of existing structures and construction of a new building or buildings consistent with the downtown framework.A potential development partner may be apparent at the time of implementation.If not,the city may use a request for proposal (RFP)process to obtain a private development partner for a redevelopment project.The RFP allows the city to explain its objectives and to find the developer best suited to bring the segments of the design framework to fruition in this area.The steps in the RFP process include: » Prepare and distribute RFP » Select preferred development partner » Negotiate preliminary development agreement. » Approve final development agreement by EDA. » Planning review and approval process. Revitalization Revitalization is an important outcome of this Plan.In the Plan,revitalization is used where existing structures will remain and will be upgraded.The city hopes to create an environment that encourages property owners to invest in the betterment of existing buildings and sites,perhaps through financial incentives.Tools to create that environment include: » Grants for initial architectural and design work. » Low interest loans to finance improvements. » Use of public funds in matching grant program for qualifying improvements. » Technical assistance for property owners wishing to explore revitalization projects. The city and the EDA should take steps to establish a specific revitalization assistance program following adoption of this Plan.Without a commitment to this program,revitalization of existing structures may be set aside as resources are applied to other,larger redevelopment initiatives. Land Acquisition Opportunities may arise to acquire land not related to a current development proposal.It is advantageous to have the ability to purchase land at key locations when offered for sale by property owners.This approach offers several benefits: ® Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan » A"willing seller"purchase often reduces the long-term land expense and the public cost of redevelopment. » The assembly of land enhances the potential for redevelopment.Land costs are certain and the delays to assemble a site are reduced. » Control of land minimizes the need for condemnation.The challenge of acquiring and banking land in advance of redevelopment is funding.The city will be looking into funding alternatives for land acquisition as well as specific redevelopment projects. FINANCIAL TOOL BOX Revitalization or redevelopment of downtown will be more difficult without the financial assistance of the City of Farmington.The need for public financial assistance comes from several factors: » Redevelopment projects often prove not to be financially feasible without public assistance.Projected revenues available from the new development do not cover the costs of redevelopment.This"gap"between revenues and expenditures stems from a variety of causes.Land costs are often higher than alternative"green field"locations.The price of a redevelopment site includes land and structures.Further,redevelopment includes costs for demolition and clearance of existing structures.There are also expenses(direct or indirect)for the relocation of existing businesses.Often these additional costs cannot be passed on through higher lease rates or sale prices. » Structured enclosed parking may be three or four times more expensive than outdoor surface parking. » The Plan seeks a higher level of design and building materials in downtown.The Plan anticipates that the city's downtown will create a showcase area for the community and therefore higher quality design and materials are anticipated. City financial participation in redevelopment provides a means of achieving this goal. » Revitalization,rather than full-scale redevelopment,is also costly and limited by some of the same factors as the redevelopment process.The current economic environment of downtown may not generate enough additional income for the property owner to invest in enhanced building facades or signage.Public financing may be needed to support a portion of the cost of improvements. The remainder of this chapter provides an overview of the primary tools available to the City of Farmington for financing actions related to implementation of this Plan. Tax Increment Financing Tax increment Financing(TIF)is the primary development finance tool available to Minnesota cities(Minnesota Statutes,Sections 469.174 through 469.179). TIF is simple in concept,but complex in its application.Through tax increment financing,the property taxes created by new development(or redevelopment)are captured and used to finance activities needed to encourage the development. The challenge in using TIF lies with the complex and ever-changing statutory Implementation limitations.These complexities make it impractical to provide a thorough explanation of tax increment financing as part of this Plan.Instead,this section highlights the use of TIF as it relates to the implementation of the Plan. Uses Tax increment financing can be used to finance all of the important implementation actions facing the city:land acquisition,site preparation,parking, and public improvements.In addition,TIF creates a means to borrow money needed to pay for redevelopment costs. Type of TIF Districts The implementation of the plan may require the creation of one or more new TIF districts.The following overview highlights some of the considerations in creating a TIF district.This information is intended solely as a basic framework for finding applications within downtown.All specific uses will require a thorough analysis of all statutory factors.The ability to meet the statutory criteria for establishing a district is a key to the use ofTIF.Three types of TIF districts have application to the plan: » Redevelopment.A redevelopment TIF district has two basic criteria:(1)parcels consisting of 70%of the area of the district are occupied by buildings,streets, utilities,or other improvements;to be occupied,not less than 15%of the parcel's area must be covered by the improvements;and (2),more than 50% of the buildings,not including outbuildings,are structurally substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance(as defined by statute).A redevelopment district may consist of non-contiguous areas,but each area and the entire area must meet these criteria; » Renewal and renovation.A renewal and renovation district requires similar, but reduced criteria.The following three factors must exist:(1)the same 70% occupied test applies;(2)the minimum amount of structurally substandard buildings drops to 20%;(3)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); » Housing.A housing TIF district is intended to contain a project,or a portion of a project,intended for occupancy,in part,by persons or families of low and moderate income.A district does not qualify as a housing district if the fair market value of the improvements,which are constructed in the district for commercial uses or for uses other than low and moderate income housing, consists of more than 20%of the total fair market value of the planned improvements in the development plan or agreement.Several variations of housing districts may also apply different rent and income restrictions and apply to owner-occupied and rental housing.These districts have typically been established and managed by the Dakota County Community Development Agency(DCCDA). ® Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan Limitations The use of TIF as a financing tool also poses limitations: » Use of Tax Increments.The use of tax increment revenues is controlled by both State Law and by a local plan.State Law sets forth specific limitations based on the type of TIF district.These limitations generally tie back to the original criteria used for establishing the district.For example,at least 90%of the revenues derived from tax increments from a redevelopment district or renewal and renovation district must be used to finance the cost of correcting conditions that allowed for the designation of the district.The use of tax increments must also be authorized by a tax increment financing plan adopted by the city; » Pooling.The term pooling refers to the ability to spend money outside of the boundaries of the TIF district.For redevelopment districts,not more than 25% of revenues can be spent on activities outside of the TIF district.The limit is 20% for all other districts.Monies spent on administrative expense count against this limit.This limit reduces the ability of TIF to pay for area-wide improvements and to use excess revenues to support other development sites; » Timing Constraints.Timing factors must be considered in creating a TIF district. Establishing a district too far in advance of actual development may limit future use.Within 3 years from the date,of certification,the city must undertake activity within the district.The statutory criteria of activity includes issuance of bonds in aid of a project,acquisition of property,or the construction of public improvements.Without qualifying activity,no tax increment can be collected from the district.Within 4 years from the date of certification,the city or property owners must take qualifying actions to improve parcels within the district.All parcels not meeting these statutory criteria must be removed(knocked down) from the district.Upon future improvement,any parcel so removed may be returned to the district.After 5 years from the date of certification,the use of tax increment is subject to new restrictions.Generally,tax increment can only be used to satisfy existing debt and contractual obligations.The geographic area of theTlF district can be reduced,but not enlarged,after 5 years from the date of certification. Tax Abatement Tax abatement acts like a simpler and less powerful version of tax increment financing.With TIF,the city controls the entire property tax revenue from new development.Under the abatement statute(Minnesota Statutes,Sections 469.1812 through 469.1815),the city,county and school district have independent authority to grant an abatement.Acting alone,the city cannot use tax abatement to generate the same amount of revenue as TIF.Nonetheless,tax abatement provides a valuable tool for the downtown initiatives.Certain projects may be of sufficient importance to encourage county and/,or school district abatement and achieve additional funding capacity. Implementation Uses Abatement in Minnesota works more like a rebate than an abatement.The city(and other units abating taxes)adds a tax levy equal to the amount of taxes to be abated. The revenue from the abatement levy can be returned to the property owner or retained and used to finance development activities.Tax abatement can be used to finance the key redevelopment actions in the downtown;such as land acquisition, site preparation and public improvements.Tax abatement is perhaps best suited as an incentive for reinvestment in existing property.While TIF deals with only the value from new development,abatement can apply to both new and existing value.This power provides the means to encourage building rehabilitation and storefront improvements.The city could agree to abate all or part of the municipal share of taxes to encourage reinvestment tied to the plan. The statute grants the authority to issue general obligation bonds supported by the collection of abated taxes.The proceeds of the bonds may be used to pay for(1) public improvements that benefit the property,(2)land acquisition,(3) reimbursement to the property owner for improvements to the property,and (4) the costs of issuing the bonds. Limitations State law places several important limitations on the use of tax abatement: The total amount of tax abatements for each political subdivision is capped.The total abated taxes in any year cannot exceed the greater of ten percent(10%) of the net tax capacity of the political subdivision for the taxes payable year to which the abatement applies,or(2) $200,000. If one political subdivision declines to abate,then the abatement levy can be made for a maximum of 15 years.If the city,county and school district all abate, then the maximum period drops to 10 years; Taxes cannot be abated for property located within a tax increment financing district. Special Assessments Public improvements are often financed using the power to levy special assessments(Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429).A special assessment is a means for benefiting properties to pay for all or part of the costs associated with improvements,and to spread the impact over a period of years.From a city perspective,this authority provides an important means of raising capital. Uses Special assessments can be used to finance all of the public improvements needed to implement the Plan.Eligible improvements include streets,sidewalks,street lighting,streetscape,and parking.Special assessments provide a means to borrow money to finance public improvements.Chapter 429 conveys the power to issue general obligation improvement bonds to finance the design and construction of public improvements.Important factors in the use of improvement bonds include: A minimum of 20%of the cost of the improvement to the city must be assessed against benefited properties; ® Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan » Beyond the 20%threshold,any other legally available source of municipal revenue may be used to pay debt service on improvement bonds; » Improvements bonds are not subject to any statutory debt limit; » Improvement bonds maybe issued without voter approval. Limitations Careful consideration must be given to setting the amount of the assessment. From a legal perspective,the amount of an assessment cannot exceed the benefit to property as measured by increased market value.There are also practical considerations.Benefiting property owners should pay for a fair share of improvement costs without creating an economic disincentive to operating a business in downtown.Within this limitation,several factors will shape the amount of the assessment: » The amount of the assessment must be 20%or more of the improvement cost to allow the issuance of bonds; » Local improvement policies and/or decisions made on previous projects often create parameters for assessments. » Likewise,assessment decisions should be made with consideration of the potential implications for future similar projects; » The assessment must strike a balance between equity and feasibility.Properties that benefit from improvements should pay a fair share of the costs.The assessment must be affordable for both the property owner and the city. Reducing the assessment to the property requires the city to allocate other revenues to the project. Special Service District A special service district is a tool for financing the construction and maintenance of public improvements within a defined area.Minnesota Statutes Sections 428A. OI through 428A.1 O govern the creation and use of special service districts.This legislation is currently scheduled to expire in 2028.A special service district provides a means to levy taxes(service charges)and fund improvements to and services for a commercial area. Uses A special service district has several applications for downtown Farmington: » The district can provide an alternative to special assessments as a means of financing some of the public improvements in downtown.The service district approach avoids the benefits test imposed by special assessments.The test for the service district is that the amount of service charges imposed must be reasonably related to the special services provided.The costs of shared parking or streetscape improvements,for example,may be better spread across a district than through assessments to individual properties. » A special service district can provide for maintenance of public improvements. Some of the improvements described in the Plan require a level of maintenance above the typical public improvement.Items such as banners and planted Implementation materials must be maintained and replaced at a faster rate than that expected for streets or utilities.A higher standard of cleaning and snow removal may be expected in downtown.Without a special service district,these costs are typically borne through the General Fund of the city. » A special service district provides a means of providing and operating the downtown parking system.Use of a special service district should be considered during the negotiation of a development agreement. If the city is going to use a special service district,the city should seek agreement to a petition and waiver of veto and other objections related to the use of a special service district.The development agreement must address both the establishment of the service district and the levy of a service charge. Limitations The use of a special service district is subject to some important constraints: » The process to create a district and to levy taxes must be initiated by petition of property owners and is subject to owner veto.The use of a special service district requires a collaboration of property owners and the city.There are two separate steps in the process:(1)adoption of an ordinance establishing the service district and (2)adoption of a resolution imposing the service charges. Neither step can be initiated by the city;the city must receive a petition to undertake the processes to create the special service district and to impose service charges.At a minimum,the petition must be signed by owners representing 25%of the area that would be included in the district and 25%of the tax capacity subject to the service charge. » The actions of the City Council to adopt the ordinance and the resolution are subject to veto of the property owners.To veto the ordinance or the resolution, objections must be filed with the City Clerk within 45 days of initial City Council action to approve.The objections must exceed 35%of area,tax capacity,or individual/business organizations in the proposed district.The specific veto requirements depend on the nature of the service charge.The service charge applies solely to nonresidential property.State law limits the application of a service charge only to property that is classified for property taxation and used for commercial,industrial,or public utility purposes,or is vacant land zoned or designated on a land use plan for commercial or industrial use.Other types of property may be part of the service district,but may not be subject to the service charge.A housing improvement area could be employed for owned housing elements of a redevelopment project. General Property Taxes General property taxes can be used to finance many of the services,improvements, facilities and development activities needed to implement the Plan.There are a variety of ways to provide property support.Taxes may be levied through the General Fund,to pay debt service on bonds,and as a levy for a development authority(EDA or HRA). ® Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan Grant Programs Grant funding from County,Regional,State and Federal programs can be a valuable tool for planning and implementation.The specific nature of grant programs changes over time depending on policy objectives and funding.The following section describes some of the key current programs. Dakota County Community Development Agency (DCCDA) The DCCDA operates several assistance programs targeted at community development and redevelopment: Community Development Block Grant Program. The federal Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) Program provides annual grants on a formula basis to Dakota County,which then distributes funds to participating cities and townships.This program was established to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment.CDBG funding expands economic opportunities for low-and moderate-income persons and eliminates slum/blight conditions. Examples of how CDBG funds could be used in the downtown are acquisition and demolition of blighted properties to assemble sites for redevelopment and construction or substantial rehabilitation of affordable housing. Redevelopment Program. The DCCDA's Redevelopment Program provides staff expertise to cities for redevelopment activities.Projects have ranged from the acquisition of affordable housing sites to the redevelopment of commercial sites on behalf of cities.Staff assistance includes acquisition,relocation,demolition,and environmental remediation. Redevelopment Incentive Grant(RIG) Program. The DCCDA's Redevelopment Incentive Grant Program was created in 2006 to assist cities with redevelopment goals and promote the development of affordable workforce and supportive housing.To date,the program has awarded nearly$7 million to 34 redevelopment projects and 13 plans.All cities in Dakota County are eligible to participate in the program.Applications are solicited annually in the Fall.Maximum award for redevelopment projects is$250,000 and $15,000 for redevelopment planning. Examples of potential uses include: Acquisition and demolition of blighted properties to assemble property for redevelopment; Installation of public improvements,including utilities,sidewalks,trails, streetscape improvements; Land use,planning,marketing and transit oriented development studies; Construction of structured public parking. Livable Communities Grants The Metropolitan Council provides grants to fund"community investment that revitalizes economies,creates affordable housing,and links different land uses and transportation."There are currently four categories of Livable Communities Grants: Implementation Transit Oriented Development Grants.These grants are targeted at projects that promote higher density/mixed-use development with strong connections to transit.Projects must be located within the one half mile station area zone.Grant funds may be used for site assembly,placemaking,infrastructure,and site cleanup. Livable Communities Demonstration Account(LCDA). LCDA grants are intended for "innovative(re)development projects that efficiently link housing,jobs,services,and transit in an effort to create inspiring and lasting Livable Communities" Grant funds may be used for planning,infrastructure and site assembly. Local Housing Incentives Account(LHIA).The Local Housing Incentives program promotes affordable rental and owned housing opportunities. Tax Base Revitalization Account(TBRA).This program provides funding for the investigation and remediation of brownfields. State Redevelopment Grant Program The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development(DEED) provides grants to help finance the"costs of redeveloping blighted industrial, residential,or commercial sites"Monies from this program can be used for a wide range of activities including land acquisition,site preparation and infrastructure.At least one half of the funding goes to projects located outside of the seven-county metropolitan area. USING THE HRA ACT Many redevelopment powers come to the city through the HRA Act(Minnesota Statutes Sections 469.001 through 469.047).State Law authorizes the EDA to use their powers.This section of the Plan lays the foundation for accessing the necessary statutory authority. Findings To exercise these powers,the HRA Act requires that the City Council make certain findings(by resolution)about the downtown area.The statutory findings focus on two development characteristics:(1)the presence of"substandard,slum,or blighted areas"or(2)a shortage of"decent,safe,and sanitary dwelling accommodations available to persons of low income and their families' While housing needs form part of this plan,the physical condition of buildings and infrastructure are the primary catalyst for public actions. The process of preparing this Plan involved the review and assessment of the existing condition of structures and infrastructure in the downtown area.Through these efforts the city has laid the foundation for using the powers granted by the HRA Act. The assessment of the downtown undertaken through the planning process identifies a variety of factors that show the need for redevelopment and the public actions offered in this Plan.Among the factors present in the downtown area are: Buildings and improvements that are physically or economically obsolete. Parcels with faulty arrangement and design and obsolete layout. Farmington Downtown Redevelopment Plan Parcels with excessive land coverage. Parcels with deficient soil conditions. The combination of these and other factors impair the ability of the private sector to correct these factors without the implementation of this plan.The failure to address this situation would not serve the best interests or general welfare of the community.Further,the results of the planning process should provide the basis for findings needed to support city actions under the HRA Act. Redevelopment Plan It would be appropriate to designate the Downtown Redevelopment Plan as a"redevelopment plan"for the purposes of the HRA Act.In designating this redevelopment plan,the City Council will make the following findings: 1.Land in the project area would not be made available for redevelopment without the financial aid to be sought.This Plan identifies the financial barriers to redevelopment in downtown Farmington.The need for financial assistance from the city(and other public bodies)will be determined as part of each project.This finding will be verified throughout the implementation of the Plan. 2.This redevelopment plan will afford maximum opportunity for the redevelopment of the downtown by private enterprise.A fundamental objective of this Plan is to maximize the opportunities for private investment in downtown. Public actions and investments are taken to remove barriers and to provide catalysts for private development. 3.This redevelopment plan is consistent with the needs of Farmington as a whole. To ensure this consistency,the city's 2030 Comprehensive Plan will be amended to support the Downtown Redevelopment Plan. Redevelopment Project Area The downtown planning area,as shown in Figure 1,is designated as the"project area"for undertaking redevelopment projects pursuant to this Plan.This area should also serve as the project area for the purposes of tax increment financing.This designation allows any excess tax increments to be spent in the downtown,subject to the authorizations and limitations of each tax increment financing plan.
