Now I normally do not react to uninformed newspaper articles or other media misinformation by writing letters to the editor. However, your article implied that the City is sitting on its backside in regard to traffic and parking problems in the downtown area and it "baffles me" that someone who writes for a local newspaper, like yourself, can be so unaware of what is actually happening in our one-of-a-kind city. I realize that you have not lived in this area for over twenty years, but to my knowledge you have neither attended Council meetings or talked to City officials and staff to determine how the City is addressing parking and traffic issues mentioned in your article. For instance, the City property South of the Brick Alley parking lot is under lease to Aiple Barge and Towing until 1998. Therefore, this property is not available until that time. The City Council has made several attempts in the-past to terminate or renegotiate this lease. We will continue our efforts to obtain this property but we must also honor our lease with Mr. Aiple. Perhaps my biggest disappointment and surprise is that you appear to be totally unaware of the Downtown Plan that is presently being developed. The City has committed considerable resources, financial and human, in making downtown Stillwater a showplace for Minnesota, including adequate parking and traffic systems. This plan has been the subject of at least three public hearings and has been given ample coverage in our local newspapers. The fireworks display, paid for by the Freighthouse, was excellent. I know the citizens of Stillwater enjoyed the display and those attending had a good time.

MAYOR ABRAHAMSON AND ~OUNCIL MEMBERS STEVE RUSSELL, COMMU~ITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR JULY 7,1988 DISCUSSION OF REQUESTi FROM INCSTAR FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ASS I ST ANCE. BACKGROUND: TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: illwater THE .IRTHPLACE OF MINNESOTA ~ INCSTAR first opened its Sti~lwater facility in 1981: Since that time, the manufacturer of medical testing! kits has expanded its faci 1 ity and employment to 130. INCSTAR is currently! completing construction of a 35,000 square foot manufacturing/office facility a!nd have plans to construct an office addition and within five years a poss!ible second manufacturing addition. The attached site plans show future INCSTAR idevelopment plans. REQUEST FOR CITY FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE INCSTAR is requesting City edonomic development assistance in the form of tax increment financing for land puirchase and site improvements. The assistance is needed in order for INCSTAR to carry out their expansion plans according to the request. The benefits to the City would include new jobs and increased property tax base. According to the request, they plan to construct an approximately 2.5 million dollar office building behind the existing office building on Northwestern Aven~e. Construction of the building would begin this fall and be completed by mid 1989. In the next three to five years INCSTAR plans to build additional 30~000 square foot manufacturing building along Northwestern Avenue north of their newest addition. TAX INCREMENT ASSISTANCE The INCSTAR property is within the Scattered Site Tax Increment District. Increment from recent constructiion will be available in 1989. The IIL" shaped lot proposed for future expansion, not currently owned by INCSTAR, is also within the district so new impriovements will generate City tax increment. The Finance Director has estimateld tax increment generated by the office project. Based on the figures, approx~mately $300,000 will be generated. The land purchased with tax increment financing could be released to INCSTAR as construction plans progress to ensure the land is used for the intended purpose. CITY HALL: 216 NORTH FOURTHI STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 55082 PHONE: 612-439-6121 . The applicant has requested that other land improvement cost besides the land purchase be considered for assistance. These costs could include site clearing and grading with an estimated cost of $100,000.These additional costs may not be supported by ten year tax increment fro~ the office project= GUIDELINES FOR USE OF TAX INCREMENT FINANCING As the Council is well aware, other public improvements are needed in parts of the Scattered Site Tax Increment District. It would be possible, based on the need for improvements and type of desired economic development, to set guidelines for use of Tax Increment Funds. Such guidelines could describe the type of assistance available, grant or loans, determine the extent of assistance or identify the period of project assistance. These guidelines for use of Tax Increment Financing will become more important as the competition for TIF increases. It is suggested that, in the next year, the City develop an Economic Assistance Policy along with a Master Plan for the Tax Increment Districts to provide clear guidelines for City participation in economlc development activity and use of TIF funds. It is further suggested that the City Council set aside a minimum of 2% of TIF Bond proceeds for a City economic development account. This would eliminate use of general funds for City economic development activities and provide seed money for future projects. . RECOMMENDATION: - That the City Council consider providing economic assistance to INCSTAR by purchasing and providing land for the construction of the office and manufacturing buildings and eligible site preparation activities to the extent supportable by ten years of tax increment. - That 2% of the TIF Bond proceeds be set aside in an economic development account. - That INCSTAR provide necessary documentation of need for City TIF assistance. - That INCSTAR provide assurances to the City regarding the future development of the manufacturing building on the site. - That the City Attorney be directed to work with INCSTAR representatives on the Development Agreement and other necessary documents.

This will allow the Company to expand and consolidate its operations in Stillwater and provide adequate room for future growth. . Reason for Assistance: INCST AR Corporation is requesting assistance from the City in order to help finance its rapid expansion. The accelerated growth rate of the Company has put a strain on its capital resources. During fiscal 1988 the Company borrowed approximately $10 million to finance its expansion. The assistance provided by the City would help INCSTAR in obtaining financing for the construction of a new office facility which in turn would allow the Company to continue its rapid growth. Benefits to the City: The City has already benefitted by the increased tax base due to the $3.3 million dollar manufacturing facility which was completed in April. The construction of the $2.5 million office building beginning in October of this year will provide sufficient tax increment to cover the requested assistance. The City would realize further tax increment from the Company's planned expansion of the manufacturing facility in 1990 (estimated cost $4-5 million) and planned expansion of the office facility in 1992 (estimated cost $2-3 million). In addition to increases from the future building expansion, INCST AR will currently be improving the land and generating more tax revenue for the City on the vacant land prior to building. . INCSTAR will also be contributing indirectly to the community by increasing its number of employees. The following table illustrates current and anticipated employment by INCSTAR.

MAWHORTER, PUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR ~ FROM: DATE: JULY 12, 1988 RE: SCHEDULED TV PRODUCTION ON JULY 19TH I have been contacted by Ms Kelly Pratt of the Mn. Motion Picture Board for the American Broadcasting Corp. (ABC). Ms Pratt advised me that ABC was going to be filming the nationally broadcasted TV show The Home Show from the Dock Cafe on July 19th. The times of the filming will be from 6:00 am to dark if necessary. The production entourage includes a 40 ft. semi truck and 4 rv's measuring from 26 ft to 35 ft. Ms Pratt stated that the semi would have to be parked on Nelson St. in front of the Dock Cafe and the rest of the vehicles could be parked anywhere nearby. The purpose the the filming is to promote Minnesota as a fun place to come in the summer. ABC is filming five shows in Minnesota. Of the five, two are going to be filmed in Stillwater, both on the 19th. The program is on the air weekdays at 11:00 am. At your suggestion I looked at the possibility of blocking of the levy road for the rv's and at the area of Nelson St. to see if it was large enough to hold the semi. I feel that both areas are adequate. I would recommend that the Streets Department block off Nelson St. just east of the entrance to the Dock Cafe on the south side of Nelson St. and the east side of the river parking lot on the north side of Nelson St. Also that the Street Department block off the levy road just to the south of the road that goes up to Chestnut St. I would recommend that this be done early on the morning of the 19th before people begin gathering and parking in the area. No parking sign on the south side of Nelson St. in front of the Dock Cafe would also be helpful. Please advise me of your decision regarding this matter tomorrow morning (Wed. July 13th) so that I can contact Ms. Pratt and advise het"" what to de,. 88-32C 212 North Fourth Street, Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 Phone: 612-439-1314 or 612-439-1336 , ", .

MAWHORTER, PUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR~ JULY 12, 1988 FROM: DATE: RE: THE PEDDLERS LICENSE APPLICATION OF WALLACE THOMAS I have received the application for a peddlers license from Wallace Robert Thomas. The license request is for the day of the Lumber Jack Days Parade. The purpose of the license is to sell canned soft drinks from a push cart along the parade route. . According to Ordinance 606, Section 8, ~ag_Qf_Ei~ggia_2nQ_e2~h~, a peddlet~ is prohibited from operating in any congested ~rea where his operations might impede or inconvenience the public. It is my feelingthat~his license should not be issued due to the congested conditions on the parade route and the danger this type of operation may create from children running across the parade rqute to get soft dt~i r.ks. Please advise me on your and/or the council's decision on this recommendation so that I may notify the applicant. 88-33C . 212 North Fourth Street, Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 Phone: 612~1314or612~1336 . . . 7982 15th.St. North Oakdale, Minnesota 55119 Phone: 738-0694 July 12, 1988 Mr. Nile Kriesel City Administrator 216 North 4th St. Stillwater, Minnesota Dear Mr. Kriesel: This letter is to confirm our phone conversation on Monday, July 11th, regarding a variance to Stillwate'r'sPeddlers Ordinance. Our family would like to sell cans of pop from one or pos- sibly two small carts for the July 24th parade, along the parade route only. Our intent is to provide ,a service that we have previously not seen provided, and not to compete with local'vendors or stands already established. That is why we will limit our sales to the parade and parade route. The City Clerk informed me that the Peddlers Ordinance requires' a fifty dollar cart permit fee, plus a twenty-five dollar background investigation fee, both good through Dec- ember 31st. We have paid the twenty-five dollar fee and have been contacted regarding their investigation. Because we will be selling the pop for only one to four hours, we would like to be granted a variance to your ordinance requiring the fifty dollar fee. Your attention to and consideration of this matter is greatly appreciated. We would be happy to answer any questions you may have. Thank you very much.
