BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Edina, Minnesota(the "City"), as
follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
The City has by resolution adopted May 20, 2014, given preliminary approval to the
issuance of its Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds (Yorktown Continental, LP Project), Series
2014 in a principal amount not to exceed $26,500,000 (the "Bonds") for the purpose of making a
loan to Yorktown Continental, LP, a Minnesota limited partnership (the "Borrower")to finance a
portion of the costs of the acquisition, rehabilitation and equipping of a 264-unit low-income
housing development (the "Project") located at 7151 York Avenue South in the City. The City is
authorized by Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C (the "Act"), to issue the Bonds to finance
• multifamily housing projects such as the Project. Minnesota Statutes, Section 462C.07 provides
that programs for such multifamily housing projects may be financed with revenue bonds issued
by the City, following adoption of a housing program, after a public hearing, and other
proceedings conducted in accordance with the requirements of the Act. A copy of the Housing
Program prepared with respect to the Project and its financing(the "Housing Program") has been
presented to this Council and is ordered placed on file with the City Clerk. The Housing
Program has been submitted to the Metropolitan Council for review and comment as required by
the Act.
1.2. At a public hearing, duly noticed and held on the date hereof, in accordance with
Minnesota Statutes, Section 462C.05, subdivision 5 and Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, on the proposal to issue the Bonds and approve the Housing
Program, all parties who appeared at the hearing were given an opportunity to express their
views with respect to such proposal and interested persons were given the opportunity to submit
written comments to the City Manager before the date of the hearing.
Section 2. Preliminary Approval of Bond Financing. On the basis of the information
given the City to date, the views submitted at the public hearing and the written comments (if
any) submitted to the City on the Housing Program and issuance of the Bonds, the Housing
Program is hereby adopted and preliminary approval is hereby given to the issuance of the
Bonds, in an amount not to exceed $26,500,000, to provide financing for the Project. The

part of the City or its Council to issue or to cause the issuance of the Bonds. All details of the
Bonds and the provisions for payment thereof shall be subject to final approval of this Council
prior to their issuance. The Bonds, if issued, shall not constitute a charge, lien or encumbrance,
legal or equitable, upon any property of the City, except the revenues to be received from the
operation of the Project and owner thereof specifically pledged to the payment thereof, and each
Bond, when, as and if issued, shall recite in substance that the Bond, including interest thereon,
is payable solely from said revenues and funds specifically pledged to the payment thereof, and
shall not constitute a debt or pecuniary liability of the City within the meaning of any
constitutional or statutory limitation.
Adopted this 17th day of June, 2014.
