The Honorable Mayor Abrahamson and esteemed members of the City Council;
Rivertown Taxi Inc. would like to make a request of you. To improve our
service to the downtown are~, especially on Friday and Saturday evenings, we
could use two (2) additional parking areas marked for taxi use only.
The locations we would like and believe to be the optimum choices for
our use are:
1. East Nelson Street - East of the railroad tracks on either
side of the street. North or South, either would be good.
2. Main Street - By the Village Shop, nest to the walk-thru
between the buildings.
We believe these two locations would help to show the residents and visitors
to our city that we do have Taxi service available.
Thank you for your time
Dick Binkley, Manager
Rivertown Taxi Inc.

June 16, 1989
RE:
MAPLE ISIAND SEWER RATE
On Friday, June 16th, I met with a Maple Island official to discuss the proposed
sewer rate increase. The official was somewhat concerned that the City might
bill them for the differential in usage vs. amount billed for past years. The
official said that their usage has averaged about 13.5 million gallons per year
except for 1987 which was a "down year" for them and they used considerably less
water during 1987. Further, in 1987, Maple Island disconnected their roof drains
from the sanitary sewer and thereby reduced the amount of water that was being
sewered (this water was not part of the metered sewage but did have a positive
impact on reducing our costs).
I would recommend that we bill Maple Island $14,694 for 1989 on a quarterly
basis ($3,674 per quarter) per estimated flows and costs as developed by the
Finance Director. Any difference between actual and estimated would be refunded
or recovered at year end. Maple Island will submit semi-annual reports to the
City regarding metered flows. The report will give a month-by-month listing of
flows. Subse~lent years could be handled in the same manner.

~
G! 20/ ~ /
Maple Island has been paying a flat fee in the amount of $2,650.50 per quarter
for sewer service charges sin e the 1st quarter of 1985. Wi th the recent
increase in sewer rates for th entire City, an adjustment to the flat fee for
Maple Island seems appropriate.
Analvsis
Maple Island total wastewater f ow for 1988 was 13.5 million gallons, as reported
in their seim-annual Industria Waste Discharge Reports.' 'The total discharge
was obtained by flow measuring equipment installed at the Company1s monitoring
point. MWCC inspectors teste the Maple Island meter in September 1988 for
discharge verification.
Conclusion
The discharge flows reported or 1988 are consistent with prior years flows
reported by Maple Island. T e 1985 rate was, based on the City I s Budgeted
Expenditures and MWCC Estimate Usage for 1984.
The following table shows the ctual expenditures, costs and charges to Maple

(REVISED)
Mayor and City Council
City of Stillwater
216 North Fourth Street
Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Council Members:
As you requested, we have revised our letter report dated May 16,
1989. We reviewed the existing catch basins and storm sewer
crossing South 6th Street between Olive and Pine Street.
The two structures were apparently constructed over a cross
culvert which provided drainage for a low area behind residences
on the west side of South 6th Street. This culvert at one time
drained across South 6th Street to the east side and discharged
on private property. Over the years this culvert has been
extended at times and filled over at other times. It appears now
that the catch basin structures are deteriorating and are in need
of replacement.
Our preliminary investigation indicates that it may be possible
to construct two new structures on South 6th Street and provide a
12" storm sewer north to the existing storm sewer in West Olive
Street.
As a part of our investigation we estimated the cost of
constructing ,the storm sewer, two new catch basin structures,
concrete curb and gutter, concrete sidewalk, water service
replacement, aggregate base, bituminous surfacing and
miscellaneous grading and removal items. The storm sewer will be
constructed in the gutter line on the west side of South 6th
Street and will be connected to the existing storm sewer on Olive
street. The total estimated cost, including engineering,
contingencies, legal and administrative is $102,915.

Re; Local Improvement 258--South Sixth Street between West Pine and West
Olive Streets
Dear ~fr Kriesel;
I am the home O\mer of 418 South Sixth Street; and I will be out
of to\m during the \-reek of .June 19, therefore unable to Attend Tuesday'
evening's Council Meeting dealing lolith the above improvement project.
I wish to register strong disapproval at the methods employed in
this public improvement project. Several of the neighbors claim this im-
provement on Sixth Street was intended to correct a chronic, recurring
drainage problem at Olive and Fifth Streets. We feel this is an inap-
propriate way to justify public \1orks improvements on an adjacent street
--assessing property owners on neighboring streets for improvements on
your O\ffi.
.
rIy property taxes are already excessive. I would have a hard time
adding to my already-,rohibitive assessment load. Before any such assess-
ment is leveraged, however, I feel you have an obligation to explain exact-
ly (or approximately) the extent of assessment for each lot and homeO\.mer
--prior to asking for concurrence. Otherwise it is commensurate with sign-
ing a blank check.
If, on the other hand, it is deemed absolutely necessary to complete
this project--or, if said improvement decisions are already made, let's think
about restoring South Sixth Street to its original limestone/cobblestone
resplendent past. On both sides of the current street we can see the orig-
inal stone--beyond where the bituminous overlay ends. Wouldn't this be in
keeping with partial restoration of Still\"ater's trarlational past as "Birhh-
place of Hinnesota?" No other street exists in the City. The stones are
already in place. This type of restoration would increase valuations to
individual property owners, the neighborhood, and the City as a whole. Let's
at least explore an estimate for this type of restoration.
Additionally, through the Celebrate Minnesota 1990 office of the
State of ~Iinnesota such restoration/beautification/renovation funds are
available--on a 1-3 basis (State provides ~ of costs if the City matches
with the remaining 3/4). Your City Planner should be well aware of this
program as well as application materials. These state funds were provided
to the CM1990 committee for restoration/beautification projects precisely
like this.
.
Thank you for allowing me to go on record through this letter.

As part of the parking management plan, additional public parking
si tes should be considered in the 2nd Street and Olive Street
area. Any site obtained for public parking should fit both the
immediate need for some alternate parking and a long term need
for the parking ramp which is anticipated as part of the long
range parking plan. Several specific sites have been mentioned
in the downtown plan.
An integral part of the parking management plan is a high level
of enforcement. Prior to implementation, a plan for enforcement
and for some efforts at goodwill should be considered. These
goodwill efforts could include the potential for utilizing tokens
for meters, the ability of merchants to provide some quarters for
their customers, a short period of courtesy tickets or other
methods. However, it is essential that enforcement be initiated
early in the program and be continuing and thorough. Enforcement
will be required evenings and weekends based on the hours of
operation of the parking meters. Enforcement is necessary thru
the entire downtown. It is recommended that adequate personnel
be assigned to parking enforcement in the downtown and that
enforcement be their sole function.
Distribution of information regarding the parking management plan
will also be essential. Information in the form of flyers or
brochures can be posted on store doors or handed out to
customers. Employees could be encouraged by their employers to
park in areas away from customer spaces.
Signs should also be provided which clearly indicate to the
public what parking is available and what the rates are. Signs
should be posted at the entrances to public parking areas
indicating "Public Parking, Meters Enforced 8:00 a.m. to 10:00
p.m., 7 days per week."
- 2 -
It will also be des'rable to provide directional signing to
parking areas. On no thbound Main street, a standard green on
white parking sign sh uld be provided at the south entrance to
the Main street lot, a Nelson Street, at Chestnut Street and at
the Maple Island park'ng area. Southbound signs on Main Street
should be posted at t e Maple Island parking area and at Main
Street. Signs eastbou d on Chestnut Street should be provided at
the Water Street lot a d at the river lot. Signs should also be
posted westbound on C estnut Street at 2nd Street and westbound
on Nelson Street at 2n Street. Finally, signs should be posted
directing traffic to t e public parking at the auditorium lot on
2nd Street.
The final step in the irst stage Parking Management Plan will be
to provide for the ne t phases of the long range program. The
next phase should addr ss several issues which have been deleted
from this portion of t e program including utilization of parking
along Water Street an Nelson Street within'the ~rea, obtaining
additional parking are the 2nd and Olive Street area and the
potential for shared use of the private parking. Public
designation of on-st spaces, angle vs. parallel parking,
additional spaces and potential public takeover of private lots
need to be addressed.

JUNE 19, 1989
SUBJECT: APPENDIX TO COSTS FOR PARKING MANAGEMENT PLAN IMPLEMENTATION.
Two types of costs for enforcement personnel and meter related costs are
considered here.
In order to have enforcement personnel on duty at all times when the parking
meters are in operation, 84 person hours of time are required - 9 A.M. to 9
P.M. (12 hr/day x 7 = 84 hours). Checking similar job descriptions and
salaries in some of the surrounding communities indicates a pay range of from'
$4.24 per hour entry to $7.67 after four years of service. For purposes of
this report, $5.50 per hour is assumed. At $5.50/hr x 84 hours = $24,024.
Other costs not included in this figure include meter maintenance, collection
of parking monies and ticket follow up. These costs could be charged against
parking revenues and possibly off set some existing cost. (See attached memo
from Public Safety Director.)
220 new parking meters will be installed in the South Main area as part of the
first phase improvement. The cost of the meters is $39,000. Besides the new
meters, modification to the existing meters cost $1,850. Other costs such as
removing old heads and installing new heads, or poles, can be done with
existing City Staff. (See attached memo.)
The total cost of the program is estimated at a one-time capital cost of
$41,347 and on-going operational cost of $30,000 - $40,000. Both of these
costs will be paid by the Downtown Parking District Revenue Fund.

RE:
PARKING METER DEPLOYMENT PLAN
-------------------------------------------~----------------------
As yr:.u requested, Scr:.tt Mr:q",tbt"iant arId I have put togethet" a "t"'JI_lgh"
proposal for deployment and purchase of meters in the downtown area.
Scott should receive the credit for this proposal. His hard work and
research was responsible for this proposal. I just typed it!
We are proposing that all the current meters south of Chestnut St. be
.removed and replaced with new manual meters. Manual meters are
meters that the person putting money in turns the handl~ to wind the
meter and register time on it. These meters would be equipped with a
special feature that allows the person to turn the crank and get 15
minutes for free. This would allow residents who just want to run in
and get something downtown to have access to free parking.
The meters that are removed from the area south of Chestnut St. would
be integrated into and amon~the present meters north of Chestnut
St. This would greatly improve the efficiency of those meters and
would allow an adequate inventory on hand for repair and replacement.
In order to do this all the old meters would have to be reworked to a
point where they are all two (2) hour meters and will accept nickels,
dimes and quarters. ~~_2~~_B~QBQaiDg_ih2i_211_m~i~~a_~QI_i2~~_
Q~DDi~a_2DY_mQ~~. This is unnecessat"y and causes excessive wear on
the meters. We would like to see a plan implemented that would, over
the course of the next two to three years, replace all the meters
north of Chestnut St. with the new meters that are manual crankers.
The cost to implement this proposal is as follows;
220 new meters and cases ($175 to $180 ea.>
Current meter conversion costs
Coin device changes (no more pennies $2.28ea
Top time register plate $7.50 ea.

RE:
PROPOSED DOWNTOWN PARKING PLAN
I am addressing this memo to you regarding your request for
information regarding meter monitors for the downtown parking plan.
As I understood the meeting we had about the parking program, it
will be proposed that the meters will be enforced seven (7) days a
week from the hours of 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. In order to do this, it will
be necessary to purchase 84 hours of personnel services per week at a
.minimum. These hours could be consumed through full time employees,
part time employees or a combination of both. The 84 hours a week
does not account for sick time, vacation time or any other time an
employee may be away from the job. The 84 hours also does not
account for meter maintenance, collecting funds, follow-up on non
paid summons and other various administrative tasks that are required
as part of the job. If the plan's goal is to have the full 84 hours
a week dedicated to:I eYlfo:.rcemeYlt activities, it wo:.uld beYlecessary to:.
substantially increase the number of hours the city wishes to
purchase for the goals of the plan.
Attached are some job desct~iptions and salary schedules for meter
monitors in the surrounding area. A summary of the wages paid are as

There are other costs that would be associated with the
implementation of this plan that should be considered. Among them
are; 1) Meter enforcement vehicle, 2) Uniforms for personnel, 3) Any
benefits that will have to be paid to employees, 4) Office area for
the employees. 5) If efficiency and effectiveness in clperations is to

STILLWATER, MINNESOTA
DOWNTOWN
PARKING MANAGEMENT PLAN
A general parking management plan has been formulated for the
downtown. The plan reflects maximizing usage of existing spaces~
developing new areas for parking, and reorienting customer and
employee usage of spaces. The highest demand for parking was
determined on the basis of numerous observations and on specific
. parking usage studies made in the summer of 1987.
Heaviest demand is centered in the area south of Chesnut street
and east of Main street. Parking in this area is often utilized
almost 100%. Generally, 90% utilization indicates a parking
shortage. This is also the area where most visitors and
customers look first for parking it is convenient to most of the
retail shopping and close to Stillwater's greatest amity, the st.
Croix River. Currently, parking in these areas are used by both
employees and visitors.
There are 429 parking spaces available within this area. There
are 212 public off street spaces in three major parking lots; the
South Main Street Lot, the River Lot, , and the Water Street Lot.
There are also 59 on street public spaces with an additional 30
spaces within the public right-of-way, marked for private usage.
.
Heaviest demand for parking in this area occurs on weekends.
Utilization was almost 100% at 7:00 p.m. and 91% at 2:00 p.m. for
.
.
.
the Saturday study. Most of the available spaces were in private
lots or at the ~m street spaces marked as private. At peak
times, there are numerous illegally parked vehicles. On
weekdays, the demand is less. At 2:00 p.m. on a Thursday, the
overall usage was 64%. However, Main Street and Water Street LotS
had higher usages of between 85%-100%. Parking demand increased
in the evening with most public lots having a greater than 90%
utilization.
In many downtown areas, employees will park at parking meters in
order to have convenient parking. It is generally possible to
determine where employees are parking during the utilization
study, because of the duration of vehicles parked in a specific
space. In Stillwater, it is more difficult, because of the long
term visitor parking which takes place. The South Main Street
Lot has a number of spaces without parking meters, which are used
primarily by employees. Even with these spaces, the Thursday
study found five employees parked all day at parking meters. The
River Lot found three employees at meters on Thursday. Average
duration at the unmetered spaces in the River Lot was 4 1/2 hours
on Thursday, and 10 hours on Saturday.
Wi th the high...., demand for parking, the very high utilization"ofv
all spaces, and the number of employees parking at both metered
and unmetered spaces, it is nece~~~ry to make several changes in
order to provide more customer and visitor parking. The low
meter rate, low levels of enforcement and relatively small
parking fine all combine to make employee parking at a meter by
either plugging the meter repeatedly, or ignoring to pay anything
a relatively a safe gamble.
The parking management plan attempts to utilize all of the
existing public parking in this area for customers and visitors.
Employees parking in the area, estimated at approximately 100,
could be relocated to other areas through a combination of higher
parking rates, more enforcement, and a structured parking plan.
.
The parking management plan has a number of elements which are
detailed in the following paragraphs.
PARKING METERS
Parking meters will be installed at all open public spaces within
the area south of Main Street, including the west side of Main
Street, and south of Chestnut street. This will require
installation of approximately 84 meters at locations where meters
have previously been removed. Because all existing meters which
were removed have been utilized in other areas or used for parts,
it will be necessary to purchase new meters. A separate report
(attached) discusses these specific costs and the type of meters
to be installed.
.
Approximately 140 meters must be converted to reflect a higher
rate and longer hours of operation. Parts for the conversion are
estimated at approximately $7.00 with the largest cost being
labor. A separate report (attached) also specifically addresses
cost of conversion.
All meters will have a $.25 per hour rate. This rate is
significantly higher than the current rate, but less tbat charged
in many communities with heavy parking demand. City of st. Paul
has a rate of approximately $.75 per hour. Parking in ramps in
st. Paul, Minneapolis, and other major communities is
significantly higher. Meters at on-street locations could have
the first 15 minutes free.
Because of the highest demand on weekends and evenings, parking
must be regulated during those times. It is therefore,
recommended the parking meters be in affect from 8:00 a.m. to
9:00 p.m., 7 days per week.
PARKING RESTRICTIONS
. To help encourage turnover of parking spaces, two parking limits
should be utilized. All on street spaces should have a two hour
. limit. The actual usage of many spaces on streets during the
usage study vari~d with a high turnover and short duration on
Thursday, and a much longer duration on Saturday when the meters
were not on effect. Parking limit in the public lots should be
four hours. An option of installing a specific number of parking
meters with a 10 hour limit is possible. However, the high
demand for parking makes a four hour limit more desirable.
.
SIGNING
There are several signing changes which must be made as part of
the parking management plan. It will be necessary to make
certain that all parking lots and parking meters have clear
indications that they are in operation 7' days per week for
extended hours. Signs at the entrance to all of the parking lots
should clearly indicate that parking meters are in affect 7 days
per week, 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., with a four hour limit. On
street parking meters can rely upon directions contained within
the meter head. However, it may be desirable to place an
informational sign at the entrance to the downtown area
indicating that certain meters are in operation 7 days per week.
t':','t.,....<~.2 .t:~
It will also be desirable to revise all existing parking
directional signs. Apparently, there are several different types
of parking signs on Main street including white on blue, and
black on white signs. All directional signs should be converted
to the standard white and green sign, which is currently
identifiable to the motorist.
In cooperation with Minnesota Department of Transportation, other
signing on Main Street should be evaluated and any unneeded signs
should be removed. A separate sign inventory has been made and
discussions started with Mn/DOT. The primary sign on Main Street
is the City's "no parking 2: 00 a. m. to 6: 00 a. m. " These are in
poor condition and should be replaced.
.
~ ENFORCEMENT
Currently, the C~ty is able to provide enforcement of parking in
the downtown area on a part time basis. It will be necessary to
provide much greater enforcement if the .longer hours of meter
operation and parking restrictions are to be successful. Meters
must be monitored and duration of parking must be checked in
order to turn over parking spaces to provide maximum utilization.
It is suggested that the City hire individuals whose specific
duty is to enforce parking regulations throughout the City. A
separate report (attached) addresses the specific hours, working
conditions, and wages.
~
~
MISCELLANEOUS
The City currently has a number of permits which it grants to
individuals who wish to park in the downtown for a specific fee.
These employees may park in the Maple Island Lot or at other lots
in the downtown. It is recommended that the permit system be
revaluated with the following as guidelines. The number of
permits in the downtown area should be restricted to only
portions of specific lots. Individuals having permits should be
required to utilize the areas of these lots, which have less
exposure to the general public and which may be less desirable
for general public use. As an eKample, permits for the Maple
Island Lot should be restricted to the northern most row or the
easterly parking spaces. Permi t fees should approximate or be
slightly less than the cost of parking at parking meter for the
comparable time frame, which might be approximately eight hours.
Parking violation tickets currently have a relatively low cost.
With the increase in parking rates, the cost of a parking ticket
should be significantly higher than the cost of utilizing a meter
for a full day. The downtown committee has recommended an
increase in rates to approximately $10.00 for parking ticket.
Downtown cooperation between employees, employers, and the City
will be necessary in order to implement the plan. Even with
.
increased parking rates, increased enforcement, and clear
regulations, th~re will be a tenancy on the part of some
individuals to try and beat the system. Downtown individuals
should all be aware of the importance of providing convenient
parking for customers and visitors. It will be necessary for all
to comply with the system and find alternate parking spaces
either through permits, private parking areas, other on street
spaces further to the west, or utilization of parking areas to
the north of the immediate downtown. Both peer pressure and
employer requirements should be utilized in an effort to prevent
misuse of existing parking spaces.
.
There are a number of loading zones and handicap parking spaces
in the, downtown area. state law requires placement of a specific
number of handicapped spaces in the parking lots and as part of
the final design, these spaces will be provided. All on street
handicap spaces should be removed since the handicap off street
spaces are relatively convenient to the downtown and are safer
for handicapped individuals to utilize. Loading zones should be
evaluated for specific usage and removed if not absolutely
necessary.
Income from ~arking meters could be significant. If the
following assumptions are made, an annual income of over
$115,000.00 per year could be realized. The assumptions are that
220 meters will utilize the $.25 per hour rate from 8:00 a.m. to
9:00 p.m., 7 days per week. Overall utilization of the parking
meters will be 50% during the summer and 40% during the winter on
weekdays, and 80% percent during the summer and 50% during the
winter on Saturdays and Sundays. It is assumed that the Sunday
usage will only occur for eight of the normal 13 hours. It is
also assumed that there is adequate enforcement so that there are
few violations.

T.V. & APPLIANCES
June 19, 1989
Dear Council Members:
I am writing this letter because I will miss tonights meeting. I have
a previous commitment. I am concerned about the Downtown Parking
situation. I am tired of seeing employee cars parked in the same spot
year after year.
I strongly feel that raising the meters to 25 cents will only create
more problems with the shoppers. 25 cents won't be that much of raise
to the employees that keep plugging the meters. A percentage of the
meters don't work anyway, so it won't ~ost them that much more.
I would like to see us adopt a~ system such as Red Wing. When I had a
store there, shoppers were much more against them than the Stillwater
. people are now. They also had employee abuse. They ~olved the
problem by:
1. Removing the meters.
2. Hired a full time woman, to CHALK _tires. They provided her
with a uniform and supplied a 3 wheeled Cushman Scooter.
3. She had no other duties. She was solely responsible for the
chalking of tires and writing tickets.
Red Wing

gained by:
Revenue went up 3 1/2 times.
No investment in new meters;
No down time because of defective meters.
No lost revenue because of defective meters.
No costly repairs of meters.
Shoppers quit complaining, even though they were being
tagged. There's something about having to plug the meter
that makes people very angry.
The employee parking problem was solved.

Our meter maid should be consistent. Every hour on the hour and six
days a week~ She should not be given any other responsibilities.

I would like the Council and the Mayor to strongly consider this
proposal. To me, this is the least expensive and most effective
solution to our problem.

Notice of Petition
To Stillwater City Council
Stillwater, MN 55082
We, the undersigned, representing both Stillwater customers and
business establishments alike register our disapproval in the
existing inefficient and unfair parking mismanagement practi~es
and specifically in the proposed twenty-five cent meters (25~)
with extended hours (8:00 to 10:00 p.m./six days a week). This
proposal is detrimental to the area's attractiveness as a retail
and service center for this city. It is noted at this time that
the effectiveness of the parking program will be determ~ned by
customers ~nd not by committees and consultants.

SUBJECT: MODIFICATION OF THE MODIFIED DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM RELATED TO
DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 AND ESTABLISHMENT OF TAX INCREMENT
FINANCING DISTRICT NO. 5 FOR THE BRICK POND AREA.
BACKGROUND:
On May 16th, the City Council considered establishing an Economic Development
Tax Increment District for the Brick Pond Plan Area. (See attached map.) A
public hearing was set to consider the item on June 20, 1989. Since that time,
the hearing notice was published in the local paper and notices sent to the
#834 School District and Washington County as required by law. No comments on
the modification have been received as of. this writing.
PROGRAM SUMMARY
The tax increment funds generated through new development in the Brick Pond
Economi c Development Area will be used to enhance the quality of publ i c
improvement and to reduce the extraordinary utility improvement cos~s caused
by an inappropriate subdivision pattern and incompatible land uses. The Brick
Pond Planning Area contains land-locked parcels (no street address) and
commercial and multifamily residential development next to a stable, single
family neighborhood.
TIF proceeds can be used to reduce util ity improvement costs in line wi th
other competitive sites in the area. This will increase the likelihood for the
area to develop. The need for a neighborhood park and Greenbelt Buffer was
identified in the Comprehensive Plan for the area. TIF funds will be used to
purchase land for the park and make park improvements and to establish a
landscape buffer between incompatible land uses. Remaining TIF proceeds will
be sued to upgrade and rehabilitate Downtown Stillwater.
PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW
On June 12, 1989, the Planning Commission reviewed the modification for
consistency with the City Comprehensive Plan. The Commission determined that
the modification is consistent with the plan (resolution attached).
CITY COUNCIL ACTION
After reviewing the program modification, reviewing the Planning Commission
recommendation and hearing public comments, the City Council can approve the
modification by passing the attached resolution and directing Staff to file
the modification with Washington County and the State.

BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council (the "Council") of the
City of Stillwater (the "City"), as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
1.01. It has been proposed that the City modify the
Modified Development Program for Development District No. 1 to
reflect an _enlargement of the project area and increased project
costs, pursuant to and in accordance with Minnesota Statutes,
Sections 469.124 to 469.134, inclusive. It has been further
proposed that the City modify the Tax Increment Financing Plans
for Tax Increment Financing District Nos. 1 through 4, located
within Development District No. 1 to reflect increased project
costs, and establish Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 and
adopt the Tax Increment Financing Plan relating thereto, pursuant
to and in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.174 to

1.02. The Council has caused to be prepared, and has

modification of the Modified Development Program (the "Modified
Development Program") for Development District No.1, defining
more precisely the geographic area to be included and project
costs to be undertaken wi thin Development District No.1; the
proposed modification of the Tax Increment Financing Plans (the
"Modified Tax Increment Financing Plans") for Tax Increment
Financing Districts Nos. 1 through 4 and the proposed Tax
Increment Financing Plan (the "Tax Increment Financing Plan") for
proposed Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 (collectively
referred to as the "Plans").
1.03. The City has performed all actions required by law
to be performed prior to the modification and the adoption of the
.
.
.
Plans, including, but not limited to, a review of the proposed
Plans by the Planning Commission and the holding of a public
hearing upon published and mailed notice as required by law.
1.04. The Council hereby determines that it is necessary
and in the best interest of the City at this time to modify the
Modified Development Program and the Modified Tax Increment
Financing Plans to reflect increased project costs and an
enlargement of the project area and to establish Tax Increment
Financing District No. 5 and adopt the Tax Increment Financing
Plan relating thereto.
Section 2. Findings for the Modification of Development
District No. 1 and the Establishment of proposed Tax Increment
Financing District No. 5 located therein.
2.01. The Council hereby finds, determines and declares
that the modification by enlargement of the geographic proj ect
area and increased project costs of Development District No. 1 is
intended and, in the judgment of this Council, its effect will
be, to further provide an impetus for commercial, industrial and
housing development, increase employment and otherwise promote
certain public purposes and accomplish certain objectives as
specified in the Modified Development Program.
2.02. The Council hereby finds, determines and declares
that the establishment of proposed Tax Increment Financing
District No. 5 located within Development District No. 1 is
intended and, in the jUdgment of this Council, its effect will
be, to further provide an impetus for commercial and industrial
development, increase employment and otherwise promote certain
public purposes and accomplish certain objectives as specified in
the Tax Increment Financing Plan.
2.03. The Council finds, determines and declares that
the proposed development, hous ing , and redevelopment, in the
opinion of the Council, would not occur solely through private
investment within the reasonably forseeable future and, therfore,
the use of tax increment financing is deemed necessary.
2 . 04 . The
the proposed Tax
Financing District
the City.
Council finds, determines and declares that
Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment
No. 5 conforms to the comprehensive plan of
2 . 05. The Council finds, determines and declares that

Financing District No. 5 will afford maximum opportunity, be
consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the
development or redevelopment of Development District No. 1 by
private enterprise.
2.06. The Council hereby finds, determines and declares
that the Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 is an economic
development type of tax increment financing district and that the
City finds it to be in the public interest because: (a) it will
discourage commerce, industry, or manufacturing from moving their
.
.
.
employment in the municipality; or (c) it will result in
preservation and enhancement of the tax base of the municipality.
2.07. The _ Council determines and declares :that
Development District No. 1 is hereby modified and that Tax
Increment Financing District No. 5 is hereby established.

EXHIBIT A TO RESOLUTION NO.
The reasons and facts supporting the findings for the
establishment of Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 and
adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan relating thereto as
required pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175,
Subdivision 3 are as follows:
1. Finding that Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 is an
"economic development district" as defined in Minnesota Statutes,
Section 469.175. Subdivision 12.
Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 does not meet the
requirements of a redevelopment district, mined underground
space development district or housing district but its
establishment is in the public interest because the proposed
development will result in increased employment, as well as
enhance the tax base of the city.
2. Finding that the proposed development, in the op1n1on of the
Council, would not occur solely through private investment within
the reasonable foreseeable future and, therefore, the use of tax
increment financing is deemed necessary.
City staff has reviewed available financing costs and has
determined that because of certain off site public
improvements required to be undertaken by the City, the
project would not be feasible without the City's assistance.
3. Finding that the Tax Increment Financing Plan conforms to
the general plan for the development or redevelopment of the
municipality as a whole.
The Planning Commission reviewed the Tax Increment Financing
Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 on June 12,
1989, and determined that the Tax Increment Financing Plan
for Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 conforms to the
comprehensive plan of the City.
4. Finding that the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax
Increment Financing District No. 5 will afford maximum
opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the City as a
whole, for the development of Development District No. 1 by
private enterprise.
Tax increment revenues can be used to reduce utility
improvement costs in line with other competitive sites,
increasing the likelihood for the area to be developed by
private enterprise.

(AS ORIGINALLY ADOPTED MAY 7, 1985)
It is found that there is a need for new development in
the City of Stillwater, Minnesota, to encourage development
wi thin areas which are already built up to provide employment
opportu-ni ties to improve the local tax base and to improve the
general tax base of the state.
The Council of the City determines that there is a need
for development and redevelopment within the corporate limits of
the City in the Development District to provide employment oppor-
tuni ties, to improve the tax base and to improve the general
1-2

"
~conomy of the State. It is found that the area wi thin the
Development District is potentially more useful and valuable than
is being realized under existing development, is less productive
than is -possible unaer this program and, therefore, is not con-
tributing. to the tax base to its full potential.
, Therefore, the City has determined to exercise its
author i ty to develop a program for improving the Development
District of the City to provide impetus for private development,
to maintain and increase employment, to utilize existing
potential and to provide other facilities as are outlined in the
Development Program adopted by the City.
The Council has also determined that the proposed
developments would not occur solely through private investment in
the foreseeable future; that the tax increment financing plans
proposed herein are consistent with the Development Program; and
that the tax increment financing plans will afford maximum oppor-
tuni ty, consistent with the sound needs of the .municipali ty as a
whole, for the development or redevelopment of the Development
District by private enterprise.
The Council finds that the welfare of the City as well
as the State of Minnesota requires active promotion, attraction,
encouragement and development of economically sound industry and
commerce to carry out its stated public purpose objectives.

determines that it is necessary, desirable and in the public
interest to establish, designate, develop, and administer a

Subsection 1.9. Proposed Reuse of Property.
(AS ORIGINALLY ADOPTED MAY 7, 1985)
1.
Current Land Use
The ~urrent land uses in the development district
include public/semi-public, residential, multi-family residen-
tial, industrial, land consumptive/highway oriented commercial
and retail/office/service commercial. The development sites are
or will be zoned in conformance with zoning standards for commer-
cial and industrial uses.
2. Proposed Reuse of Land
It is proposed that a portion of the property identi-
fied in Section C of the Development Plan will be acquired for
the construction of a restaurant and bank expansion. The restau-
rant site is capable of accommodating 6,000 square feet of on-
si te development plus related deck, patio space and parking.
Certain existing structures will be relocated or demolished to
prepare for this development. The size of the bank expansion is
yet to be determined as well as the extent of rehabilitation of
certain buildings in the "historic district."
(AS MODIFIED OCTOBER 1, 1985)
In addition, several ind1. vidual developments are
planned for certain vacant parcels in the industrial park.
(AS MODIFIED DECEMBER 12, 1985)
It is proposed that a portion of the property identi-
fied in Subsection 1.14 of "the Development Plan- will be acquired
for the construction of an elderly housing development. The 35
acre site is capable of accommodating 283 units of residential
rental development plus related retail/limited commercial devel-
opment and parking. The development parcel is currently vacant.
Phase I will consist of 64 units of lowrise housing, Phase IIA
will be 80 units of lowrise housing the Phase IIB will be a two
story 75 unit development. Phase IIIA is estimated to include a
shopping/retail facility and Phase IIIB consists of 64 units of
lowr ise housing. The city may also assist wi th the public im-
provement and land acquisition costs for the expansion of an
existing hotel. This project is further described in Ex-
hibit IV-A.
(AS MODIFIED FEBRUARY 21, 1989)
The public improvements needed to bring about the new
development include site improvements, and general improvements.
The estimated public improvement costs are referenced in the tax
increment financing plan and are collectively described in Sub-
section 1.5.

The Development Program does not contemplate the acqui-
sition of private property until such time as a private developer
presents an economically feasible program for the reuse of that
property. Proposals, in order to be considered, must be within
the fram~work of the above cited goals and objectives, and must
clearly demonstrate feasibility as a public program. Prior to
,.,formal consideration of the acquisition of any property, the City
Council will require a binding contract, performance bond and/or
other evidence or guarantees that a supporting tax increment or
other funds will be available to repay the public cost associated
with the proposed acquisition. It shall be the intent of the City
to negotiate the acquisition of property whenever necessary.
Appropriate restrictions regarding the reuse and redevelopment of
property shall be incorporated into any land sale contract to
which the City is a part.

(AS MODIFIED NOVEMBER 3, 1987)
It is not anticipated that any additional bonded
indebtedness relating to the recent developments will occur at
this time.
(AS MODIFIED FEBRUARY 21, 1989)
It is anticipated that the amount of bonded
indebtedness to be incurred in regard to the INCSTAR Corporation
project will not exceed $700,000.
Subsection 2.10. Sources of Revenue.
(AS ORIGINALLY ADOPTED MAY 7, 1985)
Several sources of revenue may be used to finance
public - costs associated with the development projects in the
municipal development district including tax increment financing,
industr ial revenue bonds, 312 rehabilitation loans, and Small
Cities Development Grant funds. Tax increment financing refers
to a funding technique that utilizes increases in assessed
valuation and the property taxes attributed to new development to
finance, or assist in the financing of public development costs.
The restaurant is expected to be fully assessed beginning in 1986

(AS MODIFIED OCTOBER 1, 1985)
< An additional $200,000 could be available {after fiscal
disparities) if all of the bond financed development is
completed.
(AS MODIFIED NOVEMBER 3, 1987)
Several sources of revenue may be used to finance
public costs associated with the development projects located
within the municipal development district. These sources include
tax increments, industrial revenue bonds, 312 rehabilitation
loans, Small Cities Development Grant funds, and special
assessments. Tax increment financing refers to a funding
technique that utilizes increases in assessed valuation and the
property taxes to assist in the financing of public development
costs.
Of the three proposed additional developments included
within Tax Increment Financing District No. 1 a partial increment
is expected to be received in 1989 with the full increment to be
received in 1990. The additional development will generate an
annual tax increment. of approximately $177,657.91, collectible in
1990 after fiscal disparfties has been allocated to the metro
pool.

Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.74,
Subdivision 1 and Section 273.76, Subdivision 1, the Original
Assessed Value (OAV) for the City of Stillwater tax increment
financing redevelopment district is based on the value placed on
the property by the County Assessor in 1984. This assessed value
is $3,600,000. Each year the Office of the County Auditor will
measure the amount of increase or decrease in the total assessed
value of the tax increment redevelopment district to calculated
the tax increment payable to the Stillwater redevelopment
district fund. In any year in which there is an increase in total
assessed valuation in the tax increment redevelopment district
above the adjusted original assessed value, a tax increment will
be payable. In any year in which the total assessed valuation in
the tax increment financing redevelopment district declines below
the original assessed valuation, no assessed valuation will be
captured and no tax increment will be payable.

OAV has increased or decreased as a result of:
1. _. change in tax exempt status of property;
2. reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundar ies
of the district; or
3. change due to stipulations, adjustments, negotiated or
court-ordered abatements.
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.74,

parcels in the district (70 percent) are occupied by buildings,
streets, utili ties or other improvements and 29 percent of the
buildings are structurally substandard and an additional 31
percent of the buildings are found to require substantial
renovation or clearance in order to remove such existing
conditions as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or
land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land,
excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete buildings not suitable
for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to
health, safety and general well-being of the community. The 59

No. 1 qualifies as a redevelopment district pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Section 273.73, Subdivision 10(a)(2). Of the 30
addi tional parcels being incorporated into Tax Increment
Financing District No.1, Washington County HRA has found that 21
parcels or 70% are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities or
other improvements; that 5 of the 21 parcels or 23.8% contain
buildings which are structurally substandard; and that an

Duration of Tax Increment Financina
(AS ORIGINALLY ADOPTED MAY 7, 1985)
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.75,
Subdivision 1, the duration of the tax increment district within
the Development District must be indicated within the finance
plan. The duration of the tax increment district will be 25
years from the date of receipt of the first tax increment. Thus,
it is estimated that the tax increment district, including any
modifications to the finance plan for subsequent phases or other
changes, would terminate in year 2012.
(AS MODIFIED NOVEMBER 3, 1987)
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.75,
Subdivisi:o-n 1, the collection of tax increment from Tax :Encrement
Financing District No. 1 may be collected up to 25 years from the
date of receipt of the first tax increment. The first tax
increment was received by the city in 1986. Therefore, the City
may collect tax increments generated from Tax Increment Financing
District No. 1 through year 2010.

Subsection 3.9. Estimated Amount of Bonded
Indebtedness. An estimate of the amount of bonded indebtedness
for all phases is expected to be approximately $3,500,000 based
upon all projects in the Nelle project being constructed. The
term of the issue is 15 years and the interest rate is 8.5
percent. The amount of maximum capitalized interest is estimated
to be $892,500. The amount of capitalized interest will be equal
to an amount sufficient to pay interest on the bonds from the date
of issue until the date of collection of sufficient tax increment
revenue to meet scheduled interest payments when due, but not
exceeding 3 years as required by Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 475.
Predicting capitalized interest prior to issuance is extremely
difficulty as it is a function of interest rates, construction
schedu~es and tax timing; therefore, the above figure is only an
estimate of capitalized interest and is subject to change.
Subsection 3.10. Sources of Revenue. Public
improvement costs, acquisition, and site preparation costs and
other costs outlined in the Estimated Cost of Project
(Subsection 4.7 above) will be financed through the annual
collection of tax increments as described below. It is

.
.
.
anticipated that the City will retain all tax increment generated
from Tax Increment Financing District No. 3 to pay for costs
outlined in Subsect~on 1.5 of the Development Program.
Other sources of revenue may be used to finance public
costs associated with the development projects in the municipal
development di~trict including industrial revenue bonds, and otheT
state and federal funds. Tax increment financing refers to a
funding technique that utilizes increases in assessed valuation
and the property taxes attributed to new development to finance,
or assist in the financing of public development costs. The
commercial development expected to be fully assessed beginning in
1989 at which time the development is estimated to generate
maximum annual tax increment of $386,694 collectable in 1990.
Subsection 3.11. Estimated Oriainal Assessed Value and
Estimated Captured Assessed Value and Estimate of Tax Increment.
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.74, Subdivi-
sion 1 and Section 273.76, Subdivision 1, the Original Assessed
Value (OAV) for the City of Stillwater tax increment financing
redevelopment district is based on the value placed on the prop-
erty by the County Assessor in 1985. This assessed value is
estimated at $1,333,542. Each year the Office of the County
Auditor will measure the amount of increase or decrease in the
total assessed value of the tax increment redevelopment district
to calculate the tax increment payable to the Stillwater
redevelopment district fund. In any'year in which there is an
increase in total assessed valuation in the tax increment
redevelopment district above the adjusted original assessed value,
a tax increment will be payable. In any year in which the total
assessed valuation in the tax increment financing redevelopment
district declines below the original assessed valuation, no
assessed valuation will be~'eaptured and no tax. increment will be
payable.
The County Auditor shall certify in each year after the
date the Original Assessed Value was certified, the amount the OAV
has increased or decreased as a result of:
1. change in tax exempt status of property;
2. reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of
the district;
3. change due to stipulations, adjustments, negotiated or
court-ordered abatements.
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.74, Subdivi-
sion 1 and Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.76, Subdivision 2, the
maximum estimated Captured Assessed Value (CAV) of the tax incre-
ment financing redevelopment district will annually approximate
$3,599,432 in all present and future phases. This amount will be

.
.
.
captured for up to twenty-five years or until the project debt is
retired.
Subsection 3.12.
Type of Tax Increment Financina Dis-
trict.
The City Council of the City of Stillwater, Minnesota,
in determining the need for a tax increment financing district in
accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Sections 273.71-273.78 inclu-
sive, finds that the district to be established is a housing
district pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 273.73, Subdivi-
sion 10. It has been determined that 23 of the parcels in the
district (71 percent) are occupied by buildings, streets,
utili ties or other improvements and 20 percent of the buildings
are structurally substandard and an additional 30 percent of the
buildings are found to require substantial renovation or clearance
in order to remove such existing conditions as: inadequate street
layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding
ob buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density,
obsolete buildings not suitable for improvement or conversion, or
other identified hazards to health, safety and general well-being
of the communi ty. The 23 structures on the 32 parcels of land
constituting the redevelopment district have been investigated by
the Washington County Housing and Redevelopment Authority. Five
of the 23 buildings are deteriorated and structurally substandard
to a degree requiring clearance and 8 other structures are found
to require substantial renovation in order to remove such existing
conditions as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or
land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land,
excessi~e dwelling unit density, obsolete buildings not suitable
for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the
health, safety and general well-being of the community. Thus,
the tax increment financing district appears to meet the statutory
requirement"s"'of a redevelopment district and will henceforth'" be
referred to as a redevelopment tax increment financing district.
The parcels that have been used to establish eligibility as a
redevelopment tax increment financing district have been listed in
Appendix B of Exhibit III-A.
Subsection 3.13.
District No.2.
Duration of Tax Increment Financinq
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.75, Subdivi-
sion 1, the duration of the tax increment district within the
Development District must be indicated within the finance plan.
The duration of the tax increment district will be 25 years from
the date of receipt of the first tax increment. Thus, it is
estimated that the tax increment district, including any modifica-
tions to the finance plan for subsequent phases or other changes,
would terminate in year 2012.

The impact of the loss of tax dollars represented as tax

estimate is based on the existing redevelopment proposals and does
not include the possible tax increments derived from any other
future de~elopment, mill changes, or inflation factors.

The following table represents the additional mills that
would have to be levied to compensate for the loss of tax dollars
in estimated tax increments for each taxing jurisdiction. The tax
- increments der i ved from the development alluded to in the tax
increment distr ict would not be available to any of the taxing
jur isdictions were it. not for public intervention by the City.
Although the increases in assessed value due to development will
not be available for the application of the mill levy for the
duration of the tax increment financing district, this new as-
sessed value could eventually permit.. a'mill levy decrease. If it
could be assumed that the captured assessed value was available
for each taxing jurisdiction, the non-receipt of tax dollars
represented as tax increments may be determined. This. determina-
tion is facilitated by estimating how much the mill levy for
property outside of the tax increment financing district would
have to be increased to raise the same amount of tax dollars in
each taxing jurisdiction that would be available if the projects
occurred without the assistance of the City.

wNOTE: As of February 21, 1989 the City has determined
to implemept a master project concept in regard to tax increment
financing districts located within Development District No.1.
Tax Increment Financing District No 3 was established and its Tax
Increment Financing Plan was approved on December 12, 1985. The
February 21, 1989 modification to the Tax Increment Financing Plan
is to implement such a concept. Attached as Exhibit IV-A are
portions of the original plan which are not required to be pro-
vided in a tax increment financing plan pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Section 469.175, Subdivision 1, and therefore are not
reflected in this Section IV.

(AS MODIFIED FEBRUARY 21, 1989)
The City may acquire and reconvey the parcels identified
in Section I, Subsection 1.14 of the Development Program as modi-
fied on June 13, 1988.
The following are conditions under which properties not
designated to be acquired may be acquired at a future date:
( 1 )
The City may acquire property by
condemnation or direct purchase from
order to achieve the objectives of
financing plan; and
gift, dedication,
willing sellers in

(2) Such acquisitions will be undertaken only when there is
assurance of funding to finance the acquisition and
related costs.
Subsection 4.5. Development Activity'in the Tax Incre-
ment Financina District for which Contracts have been Sianed. The
following contracts have been entered into by the City of
Stillwater and the persons named below:
.
It is expected that the Phase I, II and III develop-
ments will have executed development contracts no later than the
spring of 1986.
(As Contracts are entered into with the City of Stillwater,
they will be inserted in this Subsection.)
Subsection 4.6. Other Specific Development Ex?ected to
Occur within the Tax Increment Financina District.
As a part of the City's overall revitalization=program
within the redevelopment district, the other phases of the program
may provide for additional public facilities, and land acquisi-
tion. Depending on the availability of public funds, the Phase II
development should commence within the next two years. Phase II-A
is expected to consist of 80 units of elderly housing located on
7.5 acres and Phase II-B consists of 75 units of two story elderly
housing on 6 acres. Phase III-A consists of a shopping/retail
facility located on approximately 9 acres and Phase III-B consists
of 64 units of elderly housing. The total site size covering all
five phases is approximately 35 acres.
(As other specific development is expected to occur, it
will be inserted into this Subsection.)

Amount
An estimate of the maximum amount of bonded indebtedness
for Phases I, II and III is expected to be $1,200,000. The term
of the issue is 15 years and the interest rate is expected to be
8.5 percent. The amount of capitalized interest for 3 years is
estimated to be $306,000. This estimate is based upon all of the
development occurring within the parameters described in Appendix
A to Exhibi t IV-A. The amount of capi talized interest will be
equal to an amount sufficient to pay interest on the bonds from
the date of issue until the date of collection of sufficient tax
increment revenue to meet scheduled interest payments when due,
but not exceeding 3 years as required by Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 475. Predicting capitalized interest prior to issuance is
extremely difficult as it is a function of interest rates, con-
struction schedules and tax timing; therefore, the above figure is
only an estimate of capitalized interest and is subject to change.
Subsection 4.9. Sources of Revenue. Public improvement
costs, acquisi tion, and site preparation costs and other costs
outlined in the Estimated Cost of Project (Subsection 4.7 above)
will be financed through the annual collection of tax increments
as described below. It is anticipated that the City will retain
all tax increment generated from Tax Increment Financing District
No.3 to pay for costs outlined in Subsection 1.5 of the Develop-
ment Program.
Several other sources of revenue may be used to finance
public costs associated with the development projects in the
municipal development district including industrial revenue bonds,
and other state and federal funds as available. Tax increment
financing refers to a funding technique that utilizes increases in
assessed valuation and the property taxes attr~buted to new devel-
opment to finance, or assist in the financing of public develop-
ment costs. Phase I of the elderly housing development is
expected to be fully assessed beginning in 1988 at which time the
development will generate an annual tax increment of $44,200
collectable in 1989. An additional $156,000 per year of tax
increment could be available if all of the phases of development
are completed. Timing of development phases, lease-up schedules
and resulting tax increment cash flow should be calculated and
agreed upon between the City and the developer as a part of the
redevelopment contract prior to bond issuance.
Subsection 4.10. Estimated Oriainal Assessed Value and
Estimated Captured Assessed Value and Estimate of Tax Increment.
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.74, Subdivi-
sion 1 and Section 273.76, Subdivision 1, the Original Assessed
Value (OAV) for the City of Stillwater tax increment financing
redevelopment district is based on the value placed on the prop-
erty by the County Assessor in 1985. This assessed value is
estimated at $12,708. Each year the Office of the County Auditor
4-3
.'
.
.
will measure the amount of increase or decrease in the total
assessed value of the tax increment redevelopment district to
calculate the tax increment payable to the Stillwater redevelop-
ment district fund.' In any year in which there is an increase in
total assessed valuation in the tax increment redevelopment dis-
trict above the adjusted original assessed value, a tax increment
will be payable. In any year in which the total assessed valu-
ation in the tax increment financing redevelopment district de-
clines below the original assessed valuation, no assessed
valuation will be captured and no tax increment will be payable.
The County Auditor shall certify in each year after the
date the Original Assessed Value was certified, the amount the OAV
has increased or decreased as a result of:
1. change in tax exempt status of property;
2. reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of
the district;
3. change due to stipulations, adjustments, negotiated or
court-ordered abatements.
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.74, Subdivi-
sion 1 and Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.76, Subdivision 2, the
maximum estimated Captured Assessed Value (CAV) of the tax incre-
ment financing redevelopment district will annually approximate
$411,612 to $1,863,582 in' all present and future phases. It is
expected that an estimated $411,612 will be captured as a result
of Phase I. This amount will be captured for up to twenty~five
years or until the project debt is retired.
Subsection 4.11. Type of Tax Increment Financinq Dis-
trict. Tax Increment Financing" District No. -3 is, pursuant to
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, ,Subd. 10(a)(2), a redevelop-
ment district as defined below:
The City Council of the City of Stillwater, Minnesota,
in determining the need for a tax increment financing district in
accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Sections 273.71-273.78 inclu-
sive, finds that the district to be established is a housing
district pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 273.73, Subdivi~
sion 11. The tax increment financing distr ict consists of a
project, a portion of which is intended for occupancy by persons
or families of low and moderate income as defined in Chapter 462A
and other state and federal legislation in connection with the
issuan~e of 462C housing bonds. Thus, the tax increment financing
district meets the statutory requirements of a housing district.

facility, and 84,300 square feet of office and retail space. The
developer may be assisted with a portion of the land acquisition,

Subsection 5.8.
Estimated Amount of Bonded Indebted-
ness.
_ An estimate of the maximum amount of bonded indebted-
ness, using 60% of the tax increment, is expected to be $3,711,020
based on all projects in the Woodland Lakes development being
constructed. The term of the issue is 16 years and the interest
rate of 7 percent is based upon a tax exempt bond. Due to pendina
federal legislation, the bonds may be taxable and the interest
rate may be higher. The amount of capitalized interest years is
estimated to be $997,720. The amount of capitalized interest will
5-2
.
.
.
be equal to an amount sufficient to pay interest on the bonds from
the date of issue until the date of collection of sufficient tax
increment revenue to meet scheduled interest payments when due,
but not exceeding 3 years as required by Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 4.75.
Predicting capitalized interest prior to issuance is extremely
difficult as it is a function of interest rates, construction
schedules and tax timing; therefore, the above figure is only an
estimate of capitalized interest and is subject to change.
Excess increment may be used to issue future bonds or to
pay additional costs for improvements in the municipal development
district.

all tax increment generated from Tax Increment Financing District
No. 3 to pay for costs outlined in Subsection 1.5 of the Develop-
ment Program.
Several other sources of revenue may be used to finance
public costs associated with the development projects in the
muni'cipal development district including industrial revenue bonds,
and other -state and federal funds. Tax increment financing refers
to a funding technique that utilizes increases in assessed valu-
ation and the property taxes attributed to new development to
finance, or assist in the financing of public development costs.
The commercial development is expected to be fully assessed begin-
ning in 1991 at which time the development is estimated to gener-
ate maximum annual tax increment of $1,144,800 collectable in 1992
(PLAN A) .
Subsection 5.10. Original Assessed Value and Estimated
Captured Assessed Value and Estimate of Tax Increment.
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.74, Subdivi-
sion 1. and Section 273.76, Subdivision 1, the Original Assessed
Value (OAV) for the City of Stillwater tax increment financing
redevelopment district is based on the value placed on the prop-
erty by the County Assessor in 1985. This assessed value is
estimated at $60,650. Each year the Office of the County Auditor
will measure the amount of increase or decrease in the total
assessed value of the tax increment redevelopment district to
calculate the tax increment payable to the Stillwater redevelop-
ment district fund. In any year in which there is an increase in
total assessed valuation in the tax increment redevelopment dis-
trict above the adjusted original assessed value, a tax increment
will be payable. In any year in which the total assessed valu-
ation in the tax increment financing redevelopment district
5-3
.'
.
.
declines below the original assessed valuation, no assessed
valuation will be captured and no tax increment will be payable.
The County Auditor shall certify in each year after the
date the Original Assessed Value was certified, the amount the OAV
has increased or decreased as a result of:
1. change in tax exempt status of property;
2. reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of
the district;
3. change due to stipulations, adjustments, negotiated or
court-ordered abatements.
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.74, Subdivi-
sion 1 and Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.76, Subdivision 2, the
estimated Captured Assessed Value (CAV) of the tax increment
financing redevelopment district will annually approximate
$10,062,715 in all present and future phases. This amount will be
captured for up to twenty-five years or until the project debt is
retired.
Subsection 5.11.
Type of Tax Increment Financina Dis-
trict.
The City 'Council of the City of Stillwater, Minnesota,
in determining the need for a tax increment financing district in
accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Sections 273.7l-273.7a inclu-
sive, finds that the district to be established is a redevelopment
district pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 273.73, Subdivi-
sion 10 (a) (3) . Less than 70 percent of the parcels in the dis-
trict are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities or other
improvements, but due to unusual terrain, or- soil deficiencies
requiring substantial filling, grading or other physical prepara-
tion for use at least 80 percent of the total acreage of such land
has a fair market value upon inclusion in the redevelopment dis-
trict which, when added to the estimated cost of preparing that
land for development, excluding costs directly related to roads as
defined in section 160.01 and local improvements as described in
section 429.021, subdivision 1, clauses 1 to 7, 11, and 12, and
section 420.01, if any, exceeds its anticipated fair market value
after completion of said preparation.
No parcel shall be included within a redevelopment
district pursuant to this paragraph unless the authority has
concluded an agreement or agreements for the development of at
least 50 percent of the acreage having the unusual soil or terrain
deficiencies, which agreement provides recourse for the authority
should the development not be completed. Development agreements
will be executed prior to the approval of the Tax Increment Fi-
nance District Plan. Thus, the tax increment financing district
appears to meet the statutory requirements of a redevelopment
district and will henceforth be referred to as a redevelopment tax
5-4

.
.
,increment financing district. The parcels that have been used to
establish eligibility as a redevelopment tax increment financing
district have been ~isted in Appendix B of Exhibit V-A.
Subsection 5.12.
District 'No. 4.
Duration of Tax Increment Financina
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 273.75, Subdivi-
sion 1, the duration of the tax increment distr ict wi thin the
Development District must be indicated within the finance plan.
The duration of the tax increment district will be 25 years from
the date of receipt of the first tax increment. Thus, it is
estimated that the tax increment district, including any modifica-
tions to the finance plan for subsequent phases or other changes,
would terminate in year 2012.
Subsection 5.13.
Jurisdictions.
Estimated Impact on Other Taxing
The impact of the loss of tax dollars represented as tax
increments is estimated below for each taxing jurisdiction. This
estimate is based on the existing redevelopment proposals and does
not include the possible tax increments der i ved from any other
future development, mill changes, or inflation factors.

Considering all the districts, it can be seen from the
above that each respective district will have over 99% of each
respective district available for normal growth of tax base or
valuation. Applying the percentage of the total mill rate in 1985
levied.by each taxing jurisdiction to the projected mill rate and
the estimated tax increment received reveals the annual loss of
tax dollars by each taxing jurisdiction as listed in the table
below assuming development would occur without public assistance.
The finance plan indicates we anticipate a tax increment

The following table represents the additional mills that
would have to be levied to compensate for the loss of tax dollars
in estimated tax increments for each taxing jurisdiction. The tax
increments derived from the development alluded to in the tax
increment district would not be available to any of the taxing
jur isdictions were it not for public intervention by the City.
Although the 'increases in assessed value due to development will
not be available for the application of the mill levy for the
duration of the tax increment financing district,' this new as-
sessed value could eventually permit a mill levy decrease. If it
could be assumed that the captured assessed value was available
for each taxing jurisdiction, the non-receipt of tax dollars
represented as tax increments may be determined. This determina-
tion is facilitated by estimating how much the mill levy for
property outside of the tax increment financing district. would
have to be increased to raise the same amount of tax dollars in
each taxing jurisdiction that would be available if the projects
occurred without the assistance of the City.

SECTION VI.
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN FOR
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT NO. 5
Project Summary
The tax increment revenues generated through new
development in Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 (Brick Pond
Project) will be used to enhance the quality of public
improvements and to reduce the extraordinary utility improvement
costs caused by an inappropriate subdivision pattern and
incompa tible land uses. The Br ick Pond Planning Area contains
land-locked parcels (no street access) and commercial and
multifamily residential development next to a stable, single
family neighborhood.
.
Tax increment revenues can be used to reduce utility
improvement costs in line with other competitive sites in the
area. This will increase the likelihood for the area to develop.
The need for a neighborhood park and greenbelt buffer was
identified in the Comprehensive Plan for the area. Tax increment
revenues will be used to purchase land for the park and make park
improvements and to establish a landscape buffer between
incompatible land uses. Remaining tax increment revenues will be
used to upgrade and rehabilitate downtown Stillwater.

outlined in Subsection 1.5 of the Development Program.
Subsection 6.10. original Tax capacity; Estimated
Captured Tax Capacity. Pursuant to section 469.177, Subd. 1 of
the Tax Increment Financing Act, the original tax capacity for Tax
Increment Financing District No. 5 is estimated to be $109,804 for
the year 1988 payable 1989, based on the tax capacity of all
taxable real property within Tax Increment Financing District No.
5. Pursuant to section 469.177, Subds. 1 and 4, of the Tax
Increment Financing Act, the county Auditor of Washington County
(the "County Auditor") shall certify in each year the amount by
which the original tax capacity has increased or decreased as a
resul t in a change in tax-exempt property wi thin Tax Increment
Financing District No.5, reduction or enlargement of Tax
Increment Financing District No. 5 or changes in connection with
previously issued building permits. In any year in which the
current tax capacity of Tax Increment Financing District No. 5
declines below the original tax capacity, no tax capacity will be
captured and no tax increment will be payable to the city.
Pursuant to section 469.175, Subd. 1, and section
469.177, Subd. 2, of the Tax Increment Financing Act, the
estimated captured tax capacity in Tax Increment Financing
District No. Sat completion, 1991 paayb~e 1992, will be

subsection 6.11. Type of Tax Increment Financing Dis-
Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 is, pursuant to
469.174, Subdivision 12, an economic development as
below:
6-3
.
.
"Economic development district" means a type of tax increment
financing district which consists of any project, or portions
of a project, not meeting the requirements found in the
definition of redevelopment district, mined underground space
development district or housing district, but which the
authority finds to be in the public interest because:
( 1 )
it will discourage commerce,
manufacturing from moving their
another state: or
industry
operations
of
to
(2) it will result in increased employment in the
municipality; or
( 3) it will result in preservation and enhancement of
the tax base of the municipality.
Subsection 6.12. Duration of Tax Increment Financina
Distr ict No.5. In accordance with Section 469.176 , Subdivision
1, of Tax Increment Financing Act, the City, with this economic
development distr ict, may collect tax increment payments over a
period of time ending eight (8) years from the date of the receipt
of the first increment, or ten (10) years from approval of the tax
increment financing plan, whichever is less.
..
The City will approve the Tax Increment Financing Plan
on June 20, 1989. Therefore one defined termination date after
which tax increment income cannot be received will be June - 20,
1999.
No current development on properties within Tax
Increment Financing District No. 5 will have taken place by
January 2, 1990, the date on which the properties wi thin the
district were reassessed for tax purposes. The~efore any increase
in taxable assessed value over the original assessed value would
be caused only by an inflation value on undeveloped properties.
Any captured value created by an inflationary value would produce
an insignificant tax increment for collection in 1991.
The City does not wish to accept any tax increment in
1991 and wishes to pass through any such increment which might be
receivable to all other taxing jurisdictions within the district
which would collect such increment in the same proportion as
before establishment of the district.
If the City, through the tax increment district, is not
paid any tax increment in 1991, then the first possible receipt
would be in May, 1992, from any value captured based on assessor's
reevaluation of the property on January 2, 1991. Under the second
defined termination ate, eight years from May, 1991 would be May,
2000.
.
Since the June 20, 1999 limitation is less than the
period ending May, 2000, it is assumed in the finance plan that no
6-4
.
.
tax increments will be received after the final property tax
settlement in 1999.

construction is a result of tax increment financing, the impact is
$0 to other entities.
Test No.2: Notwithstanding the fact that the fiscal
impact on the other taxing jurisdictions is $0 due to the fact
that the financing would not have occurred without the assistance
of the City, the following estimated impact of Tax Increment

Attention: Charles Swanson, Administrator
RE: The proposed modif ication of the Development Program for
Development District No. 1 and the Tax Increment Financing
Plans for Tax Increment Financing Districts No. 1 through 4,
located therein, of the City of Stillwater.
Dear Chair Jergens and Board Members:
Enclosed please find one copy of the proposed modification of the Development
Program for Development District No. 1 and the Tax Increment Financing Plans for
Tax Increment Financing District No, 1 through 4 within Development District No.
1, and the establishment of Tax Increment Financing District No. 5 within
Development District No, 1 and the adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan
relating thereto to be considered by the City Council of the City of Stillwater
at a hearing to be held at approximately 7:00 p.m. on June 20, 1989 at City Hall.
The Minnesota Tax Increment Financing Act at Section 469.175, Subd. 4, required
that prior to the adoption of a new tax increment financing plan and certain

SUBJECT: REVIEW OF PARKING REQU~REMENTS FOR CONVERSION OF SNYDER
DRUG TO OFFICE SPACE. ~CASE NO. PR/89-36)
A letter from CUB Foods was re~iewed by the City Council June 6,
1989. As a result of that rev~ew, additional information and
clarification was requested. !
I
i
I
The request is to convert a previous retail use into office space and
approximately 1,000 square feet oif retai 1 use. The reason for thi s
review is to consider the parkiing requirements for the new use.
Officeparking demand is usually l~ss than retai 1 demand, so the net
change in parking will probably b~ less.
I
The letter requesting City apP10val of the change of use indicates
that CUB Foods would like to use ~he spaces West of Lowell Park for
employee parking. This area is I currently metered and as proposed in
the Downtown Parking Management Plan, there will be four hour spaces
set aside for visitor and custo~er parking. Employee parking-will be
set aside West of Main and North ~f Myrtle Street. This may require
CUB employees to walk for two blofks from parking location to work.
I
,
CUB mentioned joint use of their parking spaces North of Chestnut.
This is a good idea and should b~ implemented through signage this
summer.
.
RECOMMENDATION:
j.
Approval with co~dition.
I
1. No specific City parkijng lot spaces shall be set aside for
CUB employees. I

THE BIRTHPLACE OF MINNESOTA J

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVE RUSSELL, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
DATE: JUNE 19, 1989
SUBJECT: MYRTLE AND SECOND STREET PARKING IMPROVEMENTS
BACKGROUND:
A public hearing was held by the City Council May 23, 1989 to receive comments
from property and business owners along Second Street between Myrtle and
Mulberry, to review the parking situation in that area. As a result of the
meeting, Staff was directed to report back with parking iot design, cost and
financing information for three parking lot locations; between the Lowell Inn
and Rivertown Commons, North Second Street lot, on the corner of Mulberry and
Second Streets, and across from Staples Mill north of the old lumber yard,
North Main Street lot.
.
DESCRIPTION OF PARKING LOT:
The North Second Street lot is located between the Lowell Inn and Rivertown
- Commons. The site is currently used for parking. The south portion of the
site is paved and the north has a paved and gravel surface. Parking spaces are
not marked so that, depending on parking configuration, 60-70 cars can be
parked in the area.
Two parking lot designs have been developed for the 120x230 foot site. (See
map #1.) The first configuration provides for two-way through traffic
movement. 73 improved spaces are provided. A second alternative does not
provide for circulation from isle to isle. Using this parking pattern, 81
spaces are provided. If the existing garage remains, six parking spaces are
lost.
The south 94 foot end of the lot is owned by the Lowell Inn and the north 141
feet is owned by the City. It is suggested the City purchase approximately 31
feet of Lowell Inn property. By purchasing the 31 feet, this would clearly
define what is Lowell Inn, what is public and allow the existing businessess
to control the loading area and 20-24 parking spaces immediately adjacent to
the Inn. The net increase in parking spaces would be 10 to 20 spaces for the
entire area.
A rough estimate of cost for improving the lot (curbs, gutters, parking, and
minimum landscaping) is $42,000. This does not include land purchase estimated
at $15,000. Several funding sources are available, including Tax Increment
Financing, Parking Improvement District proceeds, or parking revenues from the
installation of parking meters.
.

.
J"he Mul berry-Second Street site currently contains an unimproved parki ng area
err the eastern portion of the lot and sloped area up to Second Street on the
. west side. A single family residence is located on the northwest corner of the
site. The residence would need to be removed and a retaining wall constructed
to make use of the sack portion of the lot. The Downtown Plan calls for
combining the parking areas behind the Main Street building with this area to
maximize the use of the site. The dotted line on map #2 shows the land
ownership pattern. Lots A and B are vacant lots. D and C have existing
businesses on them. The parking lot design shows 62 spaces. This number could
be increased by 5 to 10 spaces by developing the area shown as existing
building.
The estimated cost for improving the parking lot is $37,000. Again this
includes paving, curb and gutter, drainage and minimum landscaping. Lighting
would be an additional cost. Total land costs for the project are not
available at this time. The owner of site "A" has indicated a willingness to
sell or 1 ease the 1 and to the City. The owner of site "B" has offered to sell
the property to the City. An agreement would have to be entered into with the
owners of lots C and D to coordinate construction and provide access from.
Mulberry Street. .
The North Main Street site is currently owned by the developer of the Arrow
Building site. The plans for the recently approved three level office building
included an optional parking plan for the north portion of the lot. Map #3
shows the optional plan for the lot. 87 spaces can be accommodated in the
area. The cost of paving would be $51,000. Additional cost for lighting and
landscaping would be required to be consistent with the Main Street
Streetscape Plan.
The owner of the site indicated he would be willing to consider selling the
property to the City or leasing the property to the City or adjacent property
owners for a parking lot. The availability of this lot will depend on the
timing for construction of the office building.
All three parking lot sites were identified in the Downtown Plan. The Myrtle
and Second Street lot and the Mulberry Street lot are designated for parking
lots or structures. Purchasing the sites will be a big step in solving parking
problems in the North Main Street area and North Second Street area. As time
passes, the parking situation will become worse and land for parking will be
more difficult to acquire.
RECOMMENDATION
Direct Staff to:
1. Negotiate purchase of land for North Second Street lot and Mulberry
Street lot.
2. Direct Staff to meet with adjacent property owners to discuss
cooperative arrangement for improving Mulberry Street lot.
3. Revi ew specifi c funding sources and come back to the City Council with
funding recommendation.
4. Follow development of Main Street lot and encourage property owners to
work together to provide parking for the area.

SUBJECT: DRAFT TIF POLICY.
.
The enclosed Tax Increment Policy is developed to help
guide the City in its use of Tax Increment Financing. The
policy includes goals and objectives, establishes
program requirements, sets an application and review
procedure, lists eligible activities and describes the
City's approach to providing Tax Increment Assistance.
It is suggested that the City Council set a workshop
meeting date to discuss the policy to become familiar with
its various aspects before est~blishing a policy.

CITY OF STILLWATER
iAX INCREMENT FINANCE POLICY
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this policy is to describe the City.s goals and objectives for
the use of Tax Increment Financing assistance and to establish a review
process for Tax Increment Financing proposals including requir~nents, review
criteria, eligible activities, and funding approach.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES:
The goal for the City of Stillwater is to encourage and provide for the
revitalization of the City through the development, or red,evelopment, of
existing and new commercial, industrial and residential areas, to increase
jobs, to strengthen the local tax base and to assist in the provision of a
variety of affordable housing opportunities for City residents.
OBJECTIVES:
1. Create a desirable and unique character through compatible land use and
quality design in new and redeveloped building.
2. Stabilize and strengthen the local property tax base.
3. Increase job opportunities for City residents.
4. Eliminate blighting and substandard conditions that impede the
development potential and economic health of the Downtown Area.
5. Preserve historically significant structure for reuse in viable
commercial, industrial or residential activities.
6. Encourage local business expansion.
7. Promote the development of certain areas and properties consistent with
the City Comprehensive Plan, Downtown Plan and Special Area Plans.
1
.
8. Retain and attract stable industries which provide significant
employment and tax base.
ELIGIBLE USES OF TAX INCREMENT ASSISTANCE
1. Acquire land or building space which is vacant, unused, under used, or
inappropriately used.
2. Provide for the financing and construction of public improvements; i.e.
water, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer lines, roads and drainage.
3. Provide for site preparation; i.e. grading, soil correction, cliff
dewatering, landscaping or drainage improvements for private
development.
4. Enhance building design and site landscaping.
. 5. Provide adequate business and shopper parking.
.
6. Reduce special assessment or write down land costs.
FUNDING APPROACH
The preferred method of providing assistance for private projects is the "pay
as you go" approach and the loan approach. "Pay as you go" does not involve
the issuance of bonds, and thus limits the City's financial exposure in these
uncertain times of State enabling legislation.
The loan approach involves the sale of tax exempt bonds, and loaning the
proceeds to the developer which, in turn comes back to the City with interest.
This lessens the bond risk because there are two income streams, tax increment
and loan payments, that can be used to meet the bond obligation. Only in
special unique situations where there is very significant benefit to the
community, will "up front" assistance be considered. A combination of
assistance techniques may be appropriate in some situations.
2
.
The following TIF allocation criteria will be used; (1) A minimum of 50% of
all new TIF proceeds shall be used in the Downtown Redevelopment District to
correct blighted conditions (2) New or expansion of basic industrial
development may receive TIF assistance according to the Economic Development
District requirements (maximum eight years of assistance) (3) Other commercial
office or service business may receive two and one half years of "pay as you
go" assistance (50% of TIF proceeds for five years) for land write down or
special assessment reductions.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PROPOSAL
1. Public benefit of assistance must be clearly demonstrated. It must be
financially demonstrated that the project will not take place without
tax increment assistance. All proposals requesting TIF assistance shall
sign a "but for" letter showing the need for the public assistance and
that, but for the assistance the project would not go forward or would
locate in a different area.
. 2. All projects requesting tax increment assistance shall be of the
highest quality of design including brick or masonry materials
exhibiting a dist~nctive non-generic style, extensive landscaping,
underground irrigation system, screened service and utility areas and
subdued exterior lighting and signage.
3. The valuation of built improvements for the proposed project shall be
at least $600,000 and offer at least four hundred hours per week of
employment opportunity.
4. All proposals shall be located in the Development District, Tax
Increment Financing Districts 1-5.
5. Construction for all assisted proposals must start within one year of
planning permit approval and be completed within two years. (For extra-
ordinary reasons, this may be extended by the City Council.)
.
3
.
6. Assisted sites shall not be land banked for future use but developed at
the time of assistance.
7. TIF proposals shall not be speculative, industrial, commercial and
office projects. (In general, speculative projects are defined as those
projects which have lease agreements for less than 70% of the available
leased space.)
8. TIF assistance will not be used in projects that involve excess lands
and/or higher than market property price.
9. The developer shall retain ownership of the project at least one year
from the date of completion to stabilize occupancy, establish project
management and begin repayment of TIF.
PRINCIPLES USED TO REVIEW AND NEGOTIATE TIF DEVELOPMENT CONTRACTS
1. To limit public financial assistance to a project to the minimum amount
. necessary and assure the successful accomplishment of the project.
2. To keep the payback period for tax increment bonds and loans to the
shortest term possible.
3. To provide tax increment assistance only to those projects which
generate sufficient increment to cover debt service.
4. To require developers to provide full disclosure of project financial
and market information so that the City may assess the need for and
type of public assistance.
5. To provide the greatest security possible to protect the City's
investment in the project.
6. To recapture the public investment to the maximum extent possible
through equity participation in the project or to treat TIF assistance
. as a second mortgage with fixed payments.
4
~ 7. To assist only projects that will not result in significant negative
environment impacts on the City.
8. TIF assistance will not be used to give a competitive financial
advantage over similar projects in the area due to tax increment
assistance.
REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Projects shall leverage the maximum private investment possible.
Generally, they should achieve a 6-8 to 1 private to public ratio. Less

SUBJECT: APPLICATION FOR PARKS AND RECREATION GRANT TO
PURCHASE MULBERRY POINT.
.
A preapplication was submitted to the State Department of
Community Development for consideration of a Lawcon grant
to assist in purchase of Mulberry Point. After meeting with
State officials, it appears as though the project has a
good chance of funding. The grant is a 50/50 match up to
$200,000 State share. In order to file a final application,
a plan and appraisal for the site is needed. It is
estimated that the cost of the appraisal would be about
$1,500.00. .
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize Staff to obtain appraisal for Mulberry Point
property.

DOWNTOWN PARKING
At their meeting of June 12, 1989, the Planning Commission
passed a motion recommending that the Ci ty Counci 1 pass an
ordinance prohibiting parking on the green landscaped areas
in the Downtown and instruct the Police Department to
enforce the prohibition. The car parking is killing the
grass and compacting the soil around the trees which will
eventually kill the trees detracting from the
appearance of the area.

On June 3, 1989, at approximately 4:00 P.M., in the City of
Stillwater, Minnesota, John DeWitt and Carol DeWitt sustained
injuries as a result of a negligently maintained street surface

Dear Mayor Abrahamson:
I am writing in regards to the recently formed Downtown Plan
Implementation Committee. I would like to ask that my name be
placed on file to be considered a member of the committee if
. there should be an opening at any time.
My interest in serving on the committee is two-fold. First being
a long time resident of Stillwater and the beautiful St. Croix
Valley. Secondly being employed by a downtown business perks my
interest in having a healthy downtown.

SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
--
AGREEMENT made this /"2- day of 0 AN lAARjL, 1989, by,
/
between, and among STILUJATER TOWNSHIP ("Township"), and
MINNESOTA TRANSPORTATION MUSEUM, INC., a Minnesota non-profit
corporation ("MTM").
RECITALS
1 . The railroad line, identified on the attached Exhibit
"A", ("Railroad Line") ~vas previously o.,med and operated by the
Burlington Northern Railroad (f1BN"). Since 1980, BN has ceased
all use of the line, obtained abandonment authorization from the
Interstate Commerce Commission, and donated the right-of-way,
rails, ties and other fixtures to MTM.
2. MTM is a non-profit corporation that operates and
displays transportation vehicles at several sites for educational
and historical purposes. MTM has entered into an agreement with
Minnesota Zephyr, Ltd., a Minnesota corporation ("Zephyr"), which
allows Zephyr to use MTM's track. Zephyr operates a restaurant
train.
3. The railroad line identified on the attached Exhibit
"A" was constructed by the Northern Pacific Railway Company, or
its predecessors, in 1870. The BN Railroad is a successor in
interest to the Northern Pacific Railway Company. Until World
War II, the portion of the Township through which the railroad
line passes was undeveloped rural land. Since 1950,
approximately six residences have been constructed on property
abutting the railroad line.
.
.'
.
4. The Township and MTM acknowledge that certain residents
of the Township have complained about railroad operations
conducted by MTM and Zephyr.
5. The Township claims that the operation of the Railroad
Line is in violation of the Township zoning ordinance and MTM
denies the alleged violation.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. MTM and Zephyr agree to conduct operations in
accordance with the terms.of this Agreement, in the interest of
minimizing concerns of residents of the Township living in the
vicinity of the railroad line.
2. Whistle blowing will be prohibited except for
emergencies, at railroad grade crossings, and as necessary to
cbmply wi~h applicable federal,state and other laws, regulations
and ordinances. Efforts will be made to reduce whistle noise by
using partial applications of air pressure or stearn, whenever
there is no perceived risk.
3. By the end of 1988, MTM will complete a side track east
of Neal Avenue behind Countryside TowinS for the purpose of
storing track repair equipment previously stored at Summit
siding. After that time, railroad equipment will no longer be
repaired within the Township by MTM or Zephyr, except in case of
emergency.
4. Track repairs within the Township will be res~ricted as
follows:
-2-
.
a. Repairs by contractors will only be done
during the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday
through Friday! except in emergencies.
b. MTM members will repair tracks in residential
areas only on Saturdays between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.,
except in emergencies.
c. Emergencies will be defined as derailments,
track washouts, and other unforeseen situations, and
will not include any planned track work
5. Except for crew members acting in the line of duty or
in the event of emergency, no persons will board or alight from
trains within the Township.
6. Summit siding will no longer be used ,for work crews and
parking of vehicles.
7. MTM has recently acquired additional land in Grant
Township at the west end of the track. In 1989 a passing siding
. will be built there, crea.ting an alternative to trains meeting
and passing at Summit. MTM will use its best efforts to
reschedule trains to avoid meeting at Summit.
8.
MTM will continue to negotiate with BN in an effort to
>
secure storage facilities for railroad equipment in downtown
Stillwater. If this effort is successful, MTM will reduce non-
revenue train movements on operating days.
9. MTM will remove all stored rail and track materials at
Summi t by the end of 1988. In the spring of 1989, t-1TM will make
the following improvements on MTM right-of-way at the sole
expense of MTM: areas of bare dirt will be seeded with grass; a
berm will be pushed up on the south side of the right-of-way;
.
-3-
.
..
.
trees will be planted on both sides of the track from Marylane to
the east switch of the Summit siding; and a wooden fence will be
built along the western portion of the south side of Summit
siding.
10. MTM will make every effort to keep the right-of-way
within the Township free of litter and debris, especially any
object that may create a safety hazard.
11. No additional trackage will be laid within the
Township, but this is not to be construed as precluding repair,
replacement, or renewal of existing trackage.
12. No regularly scheduled MTM trains will run on Saturdays
before 10:30 a.m., on Sundays before 12:00 noon, or after 7:00
p.m., excepting for special events such as Lumberjack Days,
i
. I
~
~
chartered special trains, and the Zephyr dinner train.
13. MTM will introduce no additional regularly scheduled-
train operations that are operated in whole or in part by someone
other than MTM, unless such operations are of a special event
type and are occasional, such as a visiting historic train.
14. So long as MTM conducts its operations in substantial
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Township, its
Board, employees, agents, or assigns, will not institute or join
any cause of action or proceeding, civil or criminal, which in
any way attempts to close down MTM's operation of the railroad
line as an illegal nonconforming use.
