City of Elk River,Minnesota <br /> Envision Co.,LLC(Sportech)request for Tax Abatement <br /> June 23,2015 <br /> Page 4 <br /> Land Acquisition $1,288,590 Bank Loan $6,468,474 <br /> Site Development $667,215 Equity $1,939,266 <br /> Construction $5,640,525 Tax Abatement $1,288,590 <br /> Machinery&Equipment $2,100,000 <br /> Total Costs $9,696,330 Total Sources $9,696,330 <br /> Project Financing <br /> There are generally two ways in which assistance can be provided for most projects, either upfront or on a pay-as- <br /> you-go basis. With upfront financing,the City would finance a portion of the Developer's initial project costs through <br /> the issuance of bonds or as an internal loan. Future revenues would be collected by the City and used to pay debt <br /> service on the bonds or repayment of the internal loan. With pay-as-you-go financing, the Developer would finance <br /> all project costs upfront and would be reimbursed over time for a portion of those costs as revenues are available. <br /> Pay-as-you-go-financing is generally more acceptable than upfront financing for the City because it shifts the risk for <br /> repayment to the Developer. If revenues are less than originally projected,the Developer receives less and therefore <br /> bears the risk of not being reimbursed the full amount of their financing. However, in some cases pay as you go <br /> financing may not be financially feasible. With bonds, the City would still need to make debt service payments and <br /> would have to use other sources to fill any shortfall of revenues. With internal financing,the City reimburses the loan <br /> with future revenue collections and may risk not repaying itself in full if revenues are not sufficient. The form of <br /> financial assistance proposed in this case would be considered upfront internal financing in which the City would <br /> defer receiving upfront payment for the land in the amount of $1,288,590. The City would collect the annual <br /> abatement revenues from the proposed project(City and County share, if participation is approved)to reimburse the <br /> Development fund for the land cost of $1,288,590. An interest component has not been included and is simply <br /> payment in full for the price of the land. <br /> , ,,d ° k f <br /> „7*� �S`a.'�?�e-: tea`'-:���a.a �'� .� �?�:�a <br /> Total Estimated Tax Abatement Revenues <br /> Estimated Cit Share $699,924 $945,605 $699,924 $945,605 <br /> Estimated Count Share $608,587 $770,955 <br /> Estimated Total Combined Revenues $699 924 $945,605 $1,308 512 $1716,560 <br /> Total Land Cost $1,288,590 $1,288,590 $1,288,590 $1,288,590 <br /> Estimated Sur.Ius 1 Deficit 1111=1M $342,985 $19,922 $427,970 <br /> The table above shows what the impact of participants (City and County) and number of years may have on the <br /> ability of the City to receive full payment for the land price of$1,288,590.
