PROCEEDINGS OF THE HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
REGULAR SESSION SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA OCTOBER 2, 1984
Chrm. Colligan called the meeting to order at 7:02 p.m. with Comm. Lebens,
Wampach, Vierling and Leroux present. Also present were Mayor Reinke,
John K. Anderson, City Admr. and Jeanne Andre, HRA Director. Julius A.
Coller, II, City Attorney, arrived later.
Lebens/Wampach moved to approve the minutes of September 18, 1984 as kept.
Motion carried unanimously.
Leroux/Vierling offered Resolution No. 84-11, A Resolution Adopting a
General Fund Budget for 1985, and moved its adoption.
Roll Call: Aves; Unanimous Noes; None Motion carried.
Lebens/Leroux offered Resolution No. 84-12, A Resolution Requesting the
Shakopee City Council to Consent to the Levy of A Special Tax by the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Shakopee, and
moved its adoption.
Comm. Leroux questioned the amount of the levy, asking what the maximum
is allowed by Statutue, and the advisability of increasing this levy to
that limit. He is considering that the levy limit may be frozen at some
time. He also pointed out the potential for an increased need for consul-
tant services with all the development anticipated.
Leroux/Vierling moved to table Resolution No. 84-12 until further informa-
tion is received later this evening. Motion carried unanimously.
Vierling/Wampach moved to authorize the purchase of City property in Block
29, Lots 9 and 10, by the Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority at
a price of $5,150., contingent upon the City's successful completion of
title registration of this property.
Discussion followed regarding where this purchase fits into the budget. The
HRA Director explained how hard it would be to budget an amount for these
purchases, which do not occur regularly. She said she would research how
a line item could be set up for real estate purchases.

Chrm. Colligan asked for comments from the audience.
Larry Smith, of Housing Alliance and Arvid Elness & Assoc., Architects,
stated he has been working on the River Inn project, along with Gary
Mclnerny, rather intensively for the last couple of months in order to
develop this project with practical aspects for Shakopee, in an attempt
to attract tourists downtown. He stated they have invested a lot of time
and money in this project, and they are concerned about then having to
compete with other developers for this project. He added an exclusive
contract would allow a developer to put his resources into the project
without feel there is such a risk.
Mr. Gary McInerny added that this approach gives more control to the pro-
ject, and he agrees with Mr. Smith.
Crystal Ahlman said when she first started this project, no one was in-
terested except Arvid Elness. She said this group has come up with a con-
cept, and have changed it to reflect the changing needs. She feels it is
unfair to allow others to come in now, when they had their chance earlier.
She would like very much to continue to work with Arvid Elness in this
development, unless they can't develop it for some reason. She thinks they
are in the position to come up with a developer.
Mr. Ron Maddox spoke of his conversations with Arvid Elness and staff.
He sees a potential for a lot of development because of the racetrack.
He suggests the City ask for a performance bond, because "Money talks and
baloney walks." He would hope the City would keep the process open through
the staff, so if a developer is interested, the City isn't tied to one de-
veloper. However, if the City does designate exclusivity, he would advise
requiring a performance bond. He thinks that any developer who comes to
the Council table with a plan will have his financial ideas intact and
probably have done some preliminary market studies. Discussion followed.
Motion carried with Comm. Lebens opposed.
Leroux/Wampach moved to direct staff in researching developers, enter into
negotiations with more than one developer at a time to secure for the City
the best possible development program and proposal, but not to go out for
bids. Discussion followed about timing and if a limit should be set.
Comm. Leroux spoke of three different kinds of projects; 1)When a developer
brings a project to the City; 2) A group comes up with a concept plan which
it brings to the City to seek a developer; and 3) A City -initiated project.
Ms. Ahlman said she would like to see Arvid Elness be given the first chance
to find a developer and develop the River Inn project, and if they can't
then it could be open to others.
Leroux/Wampach moved to amend the motion that the projects currently under
consideration with Housing Alliance be conducted as they have been progress-
ing to date, and that staff come up with some some of policy in writing for
that procedure.
Shakopee HRA
October 2, 1984

Comm. Lebens stated she doesn't think it is fair to be exclusive, as there
have been other developers interested in other property in town. Comm.
Vierling agreed because of the potential for problems in the future. Comm.
Leroux asserted that Council always has the right to reject their proposal
if it is not reasonable.
Motion to amend carried unanimously.
Main motion as amended carried with Comm. Lebens opposed.
Leroux/Wampach moved that as part of the policy staff pursue the creation
of an exclusive development agreement for developer selection, and that a
performance bond be made part of that agreement. Motion carried with Comm.
Lebens opposed.
Vierling/Wampach moved to direct staff to explore potential professional
services contracts to provide technical assistance in reviewing financial
data provided by developers. Motion carried unanimously.
Discussion followed regarding using the same procedures for land already
in City possession.
Leroux/Vierling moved to remove Resolution No. 84-12 from the table.
Motion carried unanimously.
The Finance Director stated the City is limited to one-third of a mill to
levy. He said he would be comfortable with an increase up to $25,000.00
Leroux/Lebens offered Resolution
special tax levy $25,000.00.
Roll Call: Ayes; Unanimous
No. 84-12 with an amendment making the
Noes; None
Motion carried.
Mr. Jim Casserly, of O'Conner & Hannan, said that a re -analysis of the
fund dictated a decrease in the size of the bond. This means the City has
more money to work with because the reserve fund is reduced and earnings
on the bond become immediately available, rather than being retained for
15 months.
Vierling/Leroux offered Resolution No. 84-13, A Resolution of the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Shakopee, Scott County,
Minnesota, Authorizing the Issuance of $3,140,000 Aggregate Principal Amount
Tax Increment Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 1984, Dated as of October 1,
1984, and Approving the Form and Authorizing the Execution of Necessary
Documents, and Superceding Resolution No. 84-10, and moved its adoption.
Mr. Pulscher, of Springsted, stated they are revising the trust indenture
and there will be an approximately $85,000 transfer from the 1984 refunding
bond fund to the HRA, which will eventually be transferred to the General
Obligation bond fund for District No. I.
Roll Call: Ayes; Wampach, Leroux, Colligan, Vierling
Noes; Lebens
Motion carried.

Leroux/Vierling moved to direct the review of the trust indenture to pro-

MEMO TO: Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA)
FROM: Jeanne Andre, Executive Director
RE: National Development Council Training
DATE: October 11, 1984
Introduction:
I would like to attend the training offered by the National
Development Council on economic development financing. Further
information on the training is provided herein.
Background:
The National Development Council has many years of experience
offering training in economic development. They have offered
courses nationally, generally from their New York or St. Louis
offices. Due to their excellent reputation the Minnesota
Department of Energy and Economic Development has brought the
training to Minnesota so that economic development personnel
could be trained locally without the added expense of travel and
hotel expenses. The first series was offered in the spring of
1984, and is being repeated starting this December. It is unclear
whether this opportunity will be available in the future.
Shakopee is just getting to the point where we seek to work
extensively with developers, and this training will be very
beneficial in packaging deals which are realistic for both the
City and the developer. The attached memo from Harry Rosefelt,
Director of the State Economic Development Division provides
further information on the training.
Each session is one week long and involves extensive homework and
advance reading to participate effectively. I am willing to make
the time commitment and would like to attend all four sessions,
spread over five months. Three hundred twenty-five dollars
($325.00) would be expended from funds available in the exist-
ing HRA budget for 1984, and $975.00 would be available from
the 1985 budget for the sessions next year.
Requested Action:
Authorize Jeanne Andre to attend four sessions of the National
Development Council Training starting December 3, 1984, expend-
ing $325.00 from the 1984 budget and $975.00 from the 1985
budget.

MEMORANDUM
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND
CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
CITY OF SHAKOPEE
FROM: PHILLIP R. KRASS
RE: RACETRACK INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BONDS
DATE: OCTOBER 15, 1984
Dear Mayor Reinke and Council Members:
I enclose the third and final draft of the Agreement I am proposing
to bind MRI to the conditions the City has imposed prior to giving our final
approval to the $90,000,000 in industrial revenue bonds. Several changes have
occurred since my October 8 letter to you which bears explaining.
In my October 8 memo I informed you that in order to have coverage of
our 8.4 million dollar tax increment revenue bonds, we needed a total of
$44,000,000 in valuation spread at $33,000,000 in the racetrack portion of the
tax increment district, and $11,000,000 in the K -Mart portion. You will
recall that the K -Mart valuation is worth a great deal more to us because we
do not pay fiscal disparities out of that portion. We have now received
information that the actual construction costs in the K -Mart portion of the
district will probably exceed $15,000,000 and we can therefore switch a great
deal of valuation into the K -Mart portion and thus reduce the overall
valuation. Consequently, with the division between the two increment
districts we are now proposing, we can have greater coverage with an
additional $2,000,000 valuation increase than we would have under the
previously proposed division of valuation with the $3,000,000 valuation
increase. Consequently, we have more safety without having to increase the
valuation quite as much as we had thought.
MRI has not yet firmed up the "shelving" of the $44,000,000 Series B
issue. It has made an agreement with Manufacturers Hanover Trust of New York
to park those bonds for 30 days while final arrangements are being rade. The
MRI people are becoming more confident every hour that Series b will be
issued. They will then be able to reduce our loan by the net proceeds they
can borrow against the arbitrage from Series B. That may reduce our loan from
$3,000,000 all the way down to no loan at all, which is our hope. They have
agreed, and the redrafted contract provides, that they will reduce their loan
from us by any amount they can borrow elsewhere. Actually, they are going to
try to borrow more than $3,000,000 on the arbitrage and that is fine as far as
we are concerned. The_ Qreater the reduction in our loan. the- _b_etter_�tzr
coveraee for the revenu-e_boat Anal the O Ppar-.r_ arm rnrprr_Ion_
The final structuring of this bond issue is going to be to treat it
as three series, with the $46,000,000 Series A being divided into a
$20,000,000 and $26,000,000 issue, and Series B remaining at $44,000,000. we
are therefore charging a total one time -up front fee of $35,DDD for the
crfrC�"iTf a12F vi �Lrr�oc'1I1Ji,uts3'dtfu--lZ1C -1`J10—%A"hi00L
commencing January 1, 1995. The $75,000 is a general fund payment to cover
City Hall admistrative costs since MRI is paying all consultant fees and
attorneys fees incurred by the City as a result of the issuance of any of the
bonds.
The involvement of Manufacturers Hanover Trust at this late date is
necessitating some significant changes in all of the documentation I have been
looking at for the last month. The last negotiating session respecting
documents began Saturday at 1:00. It was going strong when I left at 6:00 and
apparently concluded at midnight. As I draft this memo on Sunday, I have just
talked to Wood Kidner at the drafting session which started again at 9:00 this
morning and probably will go until midnight. The long and the short of it is
that there probably will be some technical changes in many of the documents
even after our meeting Monday night and it may well be that some amended
documents including possibly an Amended Indenture of Trust will come back to
us for approval. THOSE CHANGES WILL NOT AFFECT OUR AGREEMENT WITH MRI. It is
simply that this much paper cannot be shuffled in the time span involved.
I am also enclosing a City Council and an HRA Resolution authorizing
the execution of this agreement with MRI so you will have that to at least
review breifly before your meeting.
Our consultants will be at the meeting and I have asked Jim Lockhart
to have either himself or Bruce Malkerson there as well as hopefully one of
the principals from MRI just in case you have any questions.
At the risk of repeating the obvious, keep in mind that we are going
to finance the public contribution and any loan we make with revenue bonds.
The full_ faith and credit of the City will not be pledged to pay back these
bonds. However, it is certainly in our best interest that the bonds work and
are repaid because we will certainly be selling revenue bonds in the future
sometime and we certainly don't want the collapse of any Shakopee revenue bond
issue.
One last point. As part of our negotiations over the past week the
racetrack people have asked the City to agree to some sort of a cap on their
valuation and therefore their taxes, or some sort of a contingent write down
if their increment is increased by an increased mill rate. I have rejected
both of these suggestions as I think they are illadvised even if they are
legal, which I doubt. I have however informed the racetrack people that in
consideration of their agreement to increase the valuation of their property
by $2,000,000, and to reduce our loan by the amount of any alternate financing
they obtain, and in consideration of allowing us to apportion the valuation
between the two tax increment districts, I would write a letter and visit the
County Assessor requesting that for the period of the tax increment district,
the valuation of the racetrack facility not be increased, unless they expand
those facilites using Series B or some alternate method of financing.
I expect to be in this entire afternoon if you wish to call or stop
up and discuss any of these matters. Otherwise I will look forward to seeing
you this evening.
