City of Elk River, Minnesota <br />Baker Tilly Municipal Advisors, LLC Page 10 <br />occurred without the establishment of the TIF District and the provision of public assistance. A <br />positive impact on other taxing jurisdictions will occur when the TIF District is decertified and the <br />development therein becomes part of the general tax base. <br /> <br />The fiscal and economic implications of the proposed tax increment financing district, as <br />pursuant to Minnesota Statutes section 469.175, subd. 2, are listed below. <br /> <br /> <br />1. The total amount of tax increment that will be generated over the life of the TIF district is <br />estimated to be $1,593,798. <br /> <br />2. To the extent the project in the TIF District generates any public cost impacts on City- <br />provided services such as police and fire protection, public infrastructure, and the impact <br />of any general obligation tax increment bonds attributable to the TIF District upon the <br />ability to issue other debt for general fund purposes, such costs will be levied upon the <br />taxable net tax capacity of the City, excluding that portion captured by the TIF District. <br />The City anticipates financing the project through the issuance of a tax increment <br />financing note supported by future tax increments. The City also reserves the right to <br />use internal financing or bonding, as necessary, to finance a portion of the project costs <br />attributable to the TIF District. Tax increment project revenues from the TIF District and <br />project will repay any issued obligations. <br /> <br />3. The amount of tax increment over the life of the TIF District that would be attributable to <br />school district levies, assuming the School District’s share of the total local tax rate for all <br />taxing jurisdictions remained the same, is estimated to be $406,327. <br /> <br />4. The amount of tax increment over the life of the TIF District that would be attributable to <br />county levies, assuming the County’s share of the total local tax rate for all taxing <br />jurisdictions remained the same is estimated to be $587,062. <br /> <br />5. No additional information has been requested by the County or School District that <br />would enable it to determine additional costs that will accrue to it due to the development <br />proposed for the TIF District. <br /> <br /> <br />Section W Prior Planned Improvements <br /> <br />The City shall accompany its request for certification to the County Auditor (or notice of district <br />enlargement), with a listing of all properties within the TIF District for which building permits <br />have been issued during the 18 months immediately preceding approval of the TIF Plan. The <br />County Auditor shall increase the original net tax capacity of the TIF District by the net tax <br />capacity of each improvement for which a building permit was issued. <br /> <br />There have been no building permits issued in the last 18 months in conjunction with any of the <br />properties within the TIF District. <br /> <br /> <br />Section X Development Agreements <br /> <br />If within a project containing a housing district, more than 10% of the acreage of the property to <br />be acquired by the City is purchased with tax increment bonds proceeds (to which tax increment <br />from the property is pledged), then prior to such acquisition, the City must enter into an <br />agreement for the development of the property. Such agreement must provide recourse for the <br />City should the development not be completed. <br />
