MEMORANDUM
TO: Michael McCauley, City Manager
FROM: Brad Hoffman, Community Development Director
DATE: May 9, 2002
SUBJECT: Twin Lake Business Park Agreement
On April 27, 1999, the EDA entered into a development agreement with Twin Lakes
Business Park (Real Estate Recycling). As an overview of the agreement, the EDA was to write
down the cost of the land to $2.00 per foot to make it competitive with other industrial properties
being marketed at that time. The total EDA commitment was capped at $4,000,000 for Phase I
® (Wicks) and Phase II (Toro). In essence, the EDA would take the sum of the purchase price, the
cost of the environmental clean up and the clearing of the site less any grants and write the
developers land cost down to $2.00 per square foot but not to exceed a total of $4,000,000.
The agreement further stipulated that each Phase would stand alone and would receive
TIF monies for a period of 10 years once that Phase had reached full value. The Wicks building
would generate of to be used to pay a note to Twin Lake Business Park on the Wicks building
only. Under the agreement, the Wicks site (Phase I) had $1,600,000 in eligible costs not covered
by grants and in excess of $2.00 per square foot. They received a note from the EDA in the
amount of $1,600,000 at 8 %. The Toro building or Phase II is treated in the same manner under
the terms of the agreement. At the time the EDA entered into the agreement, each development
Phase would have its own note from the EDA and would have had sufficient of cash flows to
easily amortize the note. Each building had its own 10 -year period to collect the of monies to pay
off their respective notes. It was intended that each Phase or development would be removed
from the of district once the note had been paid off.
The problem is that when the legislature significantly altered the property tax laws last
year, the impact on of districts throughout the state was profound. The cash flows from existing
districts were almost cut in half. As an example, the Wicks building which has a market value of
$8,000,000 should have generated approximately $335,000 in of annually. Under the new
property tax laws, it generates approximately $158,000 in of annually. Originally, the Wicks
project should have been paid off and returned to the general tax roles after approximately 8
years of of payments. The current of cash flow will not pay off the note within the lifetime of the
district. Phase II (Toro) was hit even harder. In determining the amount of the EDA note to the
• developer the agreement limits the amount of the note to 97.5% of the present value to the of
generated by the project discounted at 8 %. Originally, that of would have had a net present
• value well in excess of $1,000,000. The project had $758,056 in eligible expenditures and should
have received a note from the EDA in that amount. Because of the change in property tax laws,
the net present value of the cash flow from the Toro building was $569,938. The developer lost
$188,118 in principal. Again, Phase II is unable to amortize the current note. As a result of the
property tax law changes, the developer will not receive the benefits of our development
agreement as currently written. It should be noted that the total to the two notes if corrected
would be $2,358,056, which is substantially less than the $4,000,000 the EDA was potentially
committed to.
Attached for discussion Monday evening is an amendment to the agreement that would
restore or make whole the developer as intended in the original agreement. It would require that
the EDA agree to use the of generated from all 3 phases of the development to retire the two
notes as opposed to each Phase of the development retiring only the note associated with that
Phase. It would also amend the second note to cover all eligible costs. Finally, it would extend
the time frame in which the developer would be able to receive of assistance.
The time frame by which the of district would be extended is contingent upon several
variables. First, to the extent that we see an increase in the market value of the real estate within
the district, there will be a corresponding reduction in the time frame to retire the notes. I have
had S p rin sted run several scenarios from 0 inflation to 2% inflation. Attached for our discussion
g
Monday evening is the 0% inflation model. At 0% inflation, both notes should be retired by
August 2015. The current Phase I note will run through 2011 and the Phase II note runs through
2013. Another option available to the EDA under new legislation would allow the EDA to let the
tax rate float. When the district was established, the tax rate at that time was frozen at 134.261.
• Tax increment districts do not capture increases in the tax rate. However, the legislature is
currently considering an exception to this law to provide relief to of districts that had been hurts
by the property tax changes. The City /EDA could elect to let the rate float to the current rate of
146.909. The two notes would be retired around February 2014.
These scenarios have one other major assumption. We are assuming that Phase III is built
and that it is comparable in value to Phase II. Further, Phase III needs to be completed so that
2004 pay 2005 is at full value. The owners should be available to discuss this matter and answer
other questions of the Commissioners.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Michael McCauley, City Manager
FROM: Brad Hoffman, Community Development Director
DATE: May 28, 2002
SUBJECT: 69 & Brooklyn Blvd Update
I have received a request to change the closing date on 69 and Brooklyn Boulevard with
Westbrook (Johnco) from May 31 to June 11, 2002. The reason for the request is a sort of catch
22 in our development agreement. We require the developer to provide proof of financing. The
developer has provided the proof of financing however, a contingency of the bank is that the City
• has approved the project. The project is before the Planning Commission this Thursday and
before the City Council on the 10 of June. Since this development is almost identical to the
project proposed b Ron Christenson that received City approval, I would recommend that we
agree to a June l I closing.
