REBATE OF EXCESS TAX INCREMENTS TO EDINA SCHOOL DISTRICT APPROVED Executive
Director Hughes explained that a letter had been received from the Board of
Education for the Edina Public Schools requesting that the HRA rebate the
excess tax increments resulting from the 1988 excess levy referendum. The
rebate for 1993 would be $20,000.00. The proposed rebate would be collected
only from the Grandview Tax Increment Financing District.
A similar rebate to the School District has been granted previously in 1991
and 1992. In 1991, the School District used the rebated funds to recondition
tennis courts at the Community Center. In 1992, the rebate was applied to the
cost of rehabilitating the track at Kuhlman Field. The School District
proposes to use the 1993 rebate to improve handicap accessibility to the
seating area of Kuhlman field stadium complex and to upgrade the press box
facility. An alternative use would be using the rebate to replace the playing
surface in the field house at Edina High School. The School District pointed
out that these facilities receive use by residents of the City.
The requested rebate is for 1993 only. Future rebates would be considered on
a year-by-year basis.
After a brief discussion, Commissioner Kelly introduced the following
Resolution and moved its adoption:
RESOLUTION

Minnesota, does hereby approve payment of rebate of excess tax increments in
the amount of $20,000.00 from the Grandview Tax Increment Financing District
for the year 1993 to Independent School District No. 273 to be used for
replacement of the playing surface in the Edina High School Field House.
Motion for adoption of the resolution was seconded by Commissioner Rice.
