EXCESS TAX INCREMENT REVENUE REBATE REQUEST OF SCHOOL DISTRICT CONTINUED TO 8/21/89 Manager Rosland presented the request of the Edina School District concerning rebate of the excess tax increment from the Grandview and 50th/France Tax Increment Districts. As noted in the resolution of the School Board, the voters of the School District authorized an additional levy in October, 1988. This additional levy resulted in a higher mill rate (i.e. tax capacity rate) within these tax increment districts. This increase produced a tax increment windfall for these two districts in the amount of $49,060 for payable 1989 taxes. The School Board has advised that the 1988 amendments to the Tax Increment Financing Act (Act) include a provision whereby cities can rebate to school districts the excess tax increment generated by a referendum levy. According to the Act, the City may elect to rebate such excess increment but is not obligated to do so. Based on these facts and circumstances, the School District requests that the City authorize the rebate of the excess increment to start with the 1989 tax increments and continue annually thereafter. Due to ongoing changes in tax increment financing laws, staff would recommend that the rebate be authorized for the payable 1989 tax increment only, and that this resolution be reviewed and considered annually in regard to future payments of excess increment. It is also recommended that the amount of the rebate should be conditioned on the collection of at least 95% of the taxes from each district, i.e. no more than a 5% delinquency rate of total tax revenue. Manager Rosland suggested that action on this matter be held for a month to be sure that there truly are excess increments. Mayor Richards said it might be helpful, as the City deals with the issue of tax increment financing for those districts, for two elected officials to meet with representatives of the School Board to discuss this as a policy issue. Motion was made by Commissioner Smith and was seconded by Commissioner Kelly that the School Board's request for rebate of excess tax increment revenue be continued to August 21, 1989. Ayes: Kelly, Paulus, Rice, Smith, Richards Motion carried.
