VI. REPORTS/RECOMMENDATIONS – (Favorable vote of majority of HRA Board Members

VI.A. APPOINTMENT TO EDINA HOUSING FOUNDATION BOARD
Manager Neal explained that the Edina Housing Foundation Board was established by the City as a separate
board and Commissioners Staunton and Fischer, and two board members conducted a recruitment process to
fill a board position. Five candidates were interviewed, and Ms. Bernadette Hornig was selected.

VI.B. REDEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH ORION 4500 FRANCE, LLC
Mr. Neuendorf explained that Orion Investments requested the use of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) to support
mixed-use development of the vacant property at 4500 France Avenue. He recommended approval of a $2.95
million TIF Note to reimburse the developer for extraordinary costs after the project was successfully completed
and the public benefits were delivered. Mr. Neuendorf recommended that the HRA entered into a
redevelopment agreement with Orion 4500 France, LLC.
Developer Ted Carlson addressed the HRA stating he was excited to proceed with the project and that staff
had done a good job protecting the City’s interest.
Motion made by Commissioner Staunton seconded by Commissioner Fischer approving
Redevelopment Agreement with Orion 4500 France, LLC, and authorizing staff to implement the
terms of the agreement.
Ayes: Fischer, Staunton, Stewart, Hovland
Motion carried.
VI.C. PROPOSED STRATEGY TO USE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING FOR AFFORDABLY-
PRICED HOUSING
Mr. Neuendorf recommended pursuing special legislation in 2019 that would allow the HRA to use Southdale 2
Tax Increment Fund to support the creation and retention of affordably-priced housing and establishing a policy
to guide the effective use of the funds. Mr. Neuendorf explained that approximately $7-$15 million could be
available but the funds must be used by December 2019 and could be used for existing buildings or new
construction in different scale and size. Several strategies were presented, along with concerns from the
community. Mr. Neuendorf recommended pursuing three to six affordable housing sites in the next three years
across all four quadrants of the City, in multiple school districts and in multiple elementary school boundaries.
Staff answered questions of the HRA including status of the Housing Policy in the Comprehensive Plan which
was expected to be approved by Council Jan. or Feb. 2019; the funds could only be used for housing or paying
off a $3 million obligation on Southdale and, if not spent, would be turned back to Hennepin County.
Motion made by Commissioner Fischer seconded by Commissioner Staunton approving strategy
to guide investment of incremental taxes to support affordably-priced housing.
Ayes: Fischer, Staunton, Stewart, Hovland
Motion carried.
VI.D. APPROVAL OF MULTI-FAMILY AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROPERTY TAX RELIEF
AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY GRANT PILOT PROGRAM
Affordable Housing Development Manager Hawkinson explained that the goal of this pilot program was to
preserve affordability, reduce energy use and create healthier homes to support tenants and strengthen the
Minutes/HRA/December 13, 2018
3
bottom line for property owners for existing Naturally Occurring Affordable Housing (NOAH). Ms. Hawkinson
said there were 94 NOAH properties with four or more units and 31% of these units were affordable rents.
The pilot program would provide City financing in exchange for a land declaration for long term affordability.
Motion made by Commissioner Fischer seconded by Commissioner Staunton approving the
Multifamily Affordable Housing Property Tax Relief and Energy Efficiency Grant Pilot Program.
Ayes: Fischer, Staunton, Stewart, Hovland
Motion carried.
VI.E. 7075 AMUNDSON STATUS REPORT
Ms. Hawkinson updated the HRA that the Edina Housing Foundation (EHF) offered exclusive development
rights to MWF Properties to develop 72- 100 percent affordable units for those earning an area median

ACTION REQUESTED:
Approve the contract for services with Metropolitan Consortium of Community Developers (MCCD) for the
Open to Business Program.
INTRODUCTION:
As a service to residents, the HRA participates in the MCCD's "Open to Business" program. This program
provides technical assistance and access to capital for new and expanding businesses located in Edina. The service
is also available to Edina residents interested in opening a business elsewhere.
This contract for service locks in the annual rate at $12,500.00. Hennepin County has agreed to pay 50 percent
of this fee with the HRA paying the balance.
Edina and MCCD has provided this service for five years. Edina is served by Program Manager Rob Smolund.
While Mr. Smolund holds business hours at City Hall each month, residents and businesses more frequently
schedule one-on-one meetings at a mutually convenient time and location. Each year, 30-50 Edina businesses
and/or Edina residents utilize this program.
Staff recommends that the Open to Business program continues in Edina and that the HRA approve the contract
for services with MCCD.

Motion to approve Resolution 2019-01 renewing support of affordable housing at 4100 West 76th Street.
INTRODUCTION:
Aeon, a nonprofit affordable housing developer, is seeking renewed support of up to $2,400,000 for their
proposed 70-unit affordable housing development at 4100 West 76th Street. This support will help advance the
development though the 2019 funding application cycle.

Description
Staff Report: Renewing Support
Resolution No. 2019-01: Renewing Support
January 17, 2019
Board of the Edina Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Stephanie Hawkinson, Affordable Housing Development Manager
Resolution 2019-01: Renewing Support of Affordable Housing at 4100 West 76th
Street
Information / Background:
Aeon, a non-profit real estate developer specializing in affordable housing intends to construct a new
building in Edina. In partnership with Land Bank Twin Cities they gained site control of 4100 West 76th
Street with the intent to raze the existing commercial building and build a new 4-story apartment building.
In June 2018 Aeon applied for the 2019 round of Low Income Housing Tax Credits from Minnesota
Housing. Although they received more points than the lowest awarded development, they were not
awarded tax credits. Therefore, they are reapplying in June 2019 for 2020 credits.
Due to the delay in financing, and the increase in construction costs, Aeon has reduced the number of units
from 80 to 70. The unit mix will remain the same, including 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom units to
serve households with incomes ranging from less than 30 percent of Area Median Income (AMI) to at or
below 60 percent of AMI. Seventy-five percent of the units will have two or more bedrooms. Parking for
residents and guests would be provided on site.
The financing of affordable housing is very complex. Pooled resources from several different public sources
is typical. As stated, in June Aeon will reapply to Minnesota Housing for 9 percent tax credits and a deferred
loan. Aeon will also be applying for Hennepin County financing in February 2019 with an award expected in
May.
As with last year’s application round, the developer requests that the City of Edina, through the Housing and
Redevelopment Authority, serve as an early funder of the project. Financial support by local municipalities is
taken into strong consideration when the Minnesota Housing and Hennepin County evaluate the readiness
of a project to finance.
Although the number of units has decreased, the financial request to the City remains the same as the
estimated development cost has increased in the past year. This is in large part due to increased
construction costs, added holding costs and increased fees. Other costs are fixed regardless of the number
of units. A comparison of the estimated development cost is below.
STAFF REPORT Page 2

Acquisition $ 2,900,000 $ 3,472,038* $ 13,351

Financing Fees $ 785,375 $ 868,348 $ 2,588
Reserves $ 551,500 $ 451,500 $ (444)
Total $ 21,673,275 $ 21,826,914 $ 40,897
Cost per unit $ 270,916 $ 311,813
*The increased acquisition cost reflects holding costs and interest payments.
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority supported the development through Resolution 2018-04 on
May 24, 2018, which awarded $2.4M towards the development. However, the Resolution did not provide
the terms of the HRA’s financing and included a clause stating the funds could be rescinded if Minnesota
Housing financing were not awarded by December 1, 2018. Because of this, Minnesota Housing did not
accept last’s year Resolution when awarding application points. To correct this, the developer requests
financial support from the Edina HRA be renewed. Staff is proposing the following terms:
• $2,400,000 loan deferred for 30 years, or the same term as the first mortgage.
• 1 percent simple interest due at the time of term or refinancing, whichever comes first.
• The HRA may rescind on financing approval if the development is not fully funded by June 2021.
This allows time for two more application cycles to Minnesota Housing and to secure a tax credit
investor.
Time is of the essence because applications for Hennepin County funding applications are due in early
February 2019.
This Resolution pledges financial support using $2.4 million of monies available to the HRA. The potential
sources of these funds include: pooled increment from Southdale 2 or developer ‘buy-in’ contributions in
the Affordable Housing Trust Fund. These local funding sources have an estimated balance of approximately
$6 million to invest in affordable housing.
Staff recommends that the HRA approve this Resolution to demonstrate its commitment to creating new
affordable housing in Edina.

HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
2018 - YEAR IN REVIEW
OVERVIEW
The Edina Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) was established in 1974 for the purpose of undertaking urban
redevelopment projects and assisting with the development of affordable housing. The members of the Edina City
Council serve as Commissions of the Board of the HRA. The Edina City Manager serves as Executive Director of the
HRA. From time-to-time, additional services are provided to the HRA by City staff as part of their regular job duties.
The HRA also uses third-party professionals to provide expertise in the preparation of redevelopment agreements and to
provide monitoring and reporting oversight.
This report has been prepared by City of Edina staff to highlight activities and accomplishments in the past year. This
report also contains updated project information that may shape upcoming activities and programs of the HRA.

2018 Edina HRA Year in Review Page 2
REDEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY
The flurry of redevelopment continues in commercial and industrial sites in Edina. Most redevelopment occurs on
properties that were originally developed 50 or more years ago. The aging structures on these properties, typically has
not kept pace with the needs or expectations of the current marketplace. Most redevelopment in Edina is privately
funded. The HRA does get involved in project financing when the project is determined to be unfeasible without
intervention and when the proposed project delivers long-term community benefits. Of the 52 major redevelopment
projects constructed since the Great Recession began to end in 2010, ninety percent of new projects have been privately
funded. Only five projects have included pledges of tax increment financing (TIF) from Edina.
In 2018, two new TIF districts were established and the budget of the Southdale 2 TIF District was modified. As of year-
end 2018, Edina has seven active TIF Districts. Key details are summarized below:
Name Type Size
(acres)
Year

In general, Edina uses tax increment financing less frequently and to a lesser extent than neighboring communities and
peers. Maps to illustrate the use of TIF are attached as Exhibits A and B.
PROJECT STATUS
1) 4500 France Avenue
The HRA entered into a Redevelopment Agreement and pledged to issue a TIF Note up to $2.295 million after
successful completion of the $29 million redevelopment project. The project consists of approximately 46
apartments with approximately 7,000 square feet of commercial space on the first floor. The new building is
designed to be four stories near the commercial street and two stories along Sunnyside Road to make a smooth
transition to the adjacent single-family houses. The project will also include several infrastructure improvements
in the commercial node and will provide a public plaza, public parking, public art and new public sidewalks with
streetscape improvements.
2018 Edina HRA Year in Review Page 3
2) North Ramp on Market Street
The HRA hired Adolfson and Peterson Construction to expand the North Parking Ramp. This project was
completed in Fall 2018 at a total estimated cost of $12 million. The expanded ramp includes 546 public parking
stalls as well as 10,000 square feet of commercial space that will be sold to a private developer in Q2 2019.
The construction project included several mitigation efforts to support local businesses during the construction
phase. These efforts included: off-site parking, employee shuttle, valet parking for customers (extended on four
occasions), on-site parking manager, business-neighborhood liaison, district marketing and promotion. The cost
of these mitigation strategies is included in the total project cost.
3) Nolan Mains / Center Ramp on Market Street
The HRA sold property at 3925 Market Street to a private developer in January 2018 to promote mixed-use
redevelopment of the site. This redevelopment effort was set in motion in 2013 based on concerns of businesses
and residents that the 50th & France district was experiencing reduced foot traffic and needed parking
improvements and other enhancements to meet the needs of the next generation. In 2013, the HRA acquired
two commercial parcels adjacent to the original North Ramp to accommodate additional parking and sought
creative solutions from the private sector in 2016 to reinvigorate the underused parcels on Market Street.
The approved project consists of 100 units of rental housing and approximately 20,000 square feet of commercial
space. The building is configured around a series of public walkways and plazas to create a vibrant pedestrian
experience that engages the adjacent commercial properties. The new structure is arranged as three connected
buildings with a height of six stories in the middle and five stories on the ends.
The HRA pledged to issue a TIF Note up to $10.1 million upon completion of the $74 million project. The
project will include approximately 128 public parking stalls located on the first underground level (Center Ramp),
shared trash rooms, public plazas, sidewalks and enhanced streetscape to create a uniform customer experience.
The developer will also provide infrastructure and utility improvements to benefit surrounding commercial
properties.
With the support of the Edina Housing Foundation, the HRA also pledged to provide a low-interest loan to
support 10 affordably priced rental units in the facility for a period of at least 15-years.
As of year-end 2018, the Nolan Mains apartment project has the lower level foundations completed and the
structural frame is about 50 percent complete. The project is on schedule for completion in Fall 2019.
4) Edina Flats – Valley View Road and Kellogg Avenue
The developer continues to make progress on the construction and sale of 18 new condominium units. The
project is partially constructed on land previously owned by the HRA.
As of year-end 2018, the shell construction of the first 6-unit building is nearly complete and the site preparation
for the other buildings is beginning to take shape.
2018 Edina HRA Year in Review Page 4
5) 5146 Eden Avenue
The HRA worked in partnership with developers at Frauenshuh Inc. to explore the possible sale and
redevelopment of the former public works property in the Grandview District. Several layouts and scenarios
were explored including elements of market-rate housing (in both high-rise and mid-rise configurations),
affordably priced housing, district shared parking, outdoor public space, and a new community facility ranging in
size from 15,000 to 50,000 square feet to replace the existing Art Center and Senior Center facilities.
Ultimately, the negotiations with Frauenshuh were terminated due to disagreement on the sales price, terms and
site layout. Concerns were also raised by the HRA about the high construction and operating costs of a new
community facility at this site.
6) Southdale Center Mall
The 77-acre Southdale Center Mall property continues to undergo significant transformation in 2018. The RH
Gallery store is under construction at the southwest corner of the site and anticipated to open in late 2019. The
Shake Shack restaurant opened in Fall 2018 at the northwest corner. The 146-room Homewood Suites hotel
opened in Fall 2018 at the northeast corner. The structural frame for the new Lifetime Fitness and Lifetime
Sport/Lifetime Work facility is nearly complete at the former site of the JC Penney’s department store. The
former Herberger site remains vacant since the retailer was liquidated and the department store was closed in
late summer 2018. Simon Properties, the property owner is reviewing several possibilities for re-use or
redevelopment of the Herberger site.
7) 6600-6800 France Avenue
The property owner/developer secured land use approvals to add new retail, housing, hotel and office space on
the site in 2016. The new buildings are intended to be arranged around a new inner circulation route that can be
used by both pedestrians and vehicles. The approved site plan includes several public realm amenities that
incorporate unique and contemporary strategies to achieve a welcoming and vibrant sense of place.
The City and the developer secured a grant from the Metropolitan Council to support creative placemaking on
the site in 2017.
While the flagship suburban site for Bank of America has been completed, none of the other anticipated elements
has been initiated. The site continues to face challenges resolving stormwater runoff, due in part to its low
elevation compared to the adjacent Rosland Park and Lake Cornelia. The developer appears to be reassessing the
combination of elements based on market conditions.
It may be necessary for the HRA to intervene in the future to facilitate redevelopment of this site so that the
desired stormwater and public realm improvements can be achieved.
2018 Edina HRA Year in Review Page 5
8) 7200/7250 France Avenue
The developer/property owner has secured preliminary rezoning approval to replace two aging office buildings
with two multi-family apartment buildings with commercial space on the street level. The approved site plan
includes several public realm amenities and preserves a portion of the property that has a grove of mature trees.
The developer has requested $12 million in TIF to support the $117 million project. While the rezoning of the
site has been approved by the City Council, staff is still evaluating the TIF request. Action on this request is
anticipated early in 2019.
9) 7001 York Avenue
Hennepin County owns and operates the Regional Library on this 8-acre property. For several years, they have
been considering how to redevelop the site to provide county services to residents of Edina and surrounding
communities. The Service Center relocated to Southdale Center in 2015. The Court Facility is on schedule to
move to Ridgedale Center in Minnetonka in 2019. The Regional Library is scheduled to be reconstructed in the
next few years.
The HRA may get involved in the future redevelopment of this site, possibly for the creation of new affordably
priced housing. Details are pending until the County determines the preferred use of the property and timing for
a future transaction.
10) 4100 West 76th Street
Aeon, a private developer who specializes in affordably priced housing has purchased this property after it had
been listed on the open market for more than one year. The existing commercial building was originally
constructed in 1967 and has been occupied by a number of different businesses – including a successful recording
studio.
In Fall 2018, Aeon secured an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan to allow affordably priced housing to be
built on this parcel.
The HRA pledged to provide $2.4 million in monies and $925,000 in future incremental property taxes from the
site to support long-term affordability on the site.
Aeon is in the process of securing full funding commitments so that construction can commence in 2020.
The HRA is negotiating for the temporary purchase of the property from the Community Land Bank to
demonstrate the City’s commitment to provide new affordably priced housing in the community.
2018 Edina HRA Year in Review Page 6
11) Pentagon Park South – Pentagon Village
The HRA executed a redevelopment agreement with the developer to support complete redevelopment of the
vacant 12-acre property. Upon completion, the developer will deliver several new building elements. They are
anticipated to include: new dual brand hotel, two new retail buildings, extended-stay hotel, mixed-use retail/office
building, two new office buildings, parking garages, public plaza and new infrastructure.
TIF support will be provided via multiple TIF Notes with a combined maximum principal amount of $18.1 million.
The actual amount of TIF reimbursement will be determined based on actual project costs and the amount of
investment that can be delivered prior to June 30, 2019.
As of year-end 2018, the developer is making significant progress with site improvements. A minor amendment
to the site plan and TIF Redevelopment Agreement is anticipated in early 2019.
12) Pentagon Park North
A proposal from Chase Real Estate to construct 585 units of market-rate housing on a portion of the north
parcel was denied. The HRA negotiated preliminary terms but final agreement was unable to be reached. While
there is still interest from the private sector to redevelop part of this site, the property owner intends to
rehabilitate the existing office buildings and offer leases for new office space.
13) 7075 Amundson Avenue
The Edina Housing Foundation purchased this vacant site in 2018 after the business closed due to bankruptcy.
The Foundation has expressed their intention to sell the site to a developer for the construction of affordably
priced housing. The use of TIF is anticipated in order to secure other funding sources and make the eventual
project viable.
OTHER HRA ACTIVITIES
14) Development Strategy for Affordably Priced Housing
The HRA approved a strategy to use incremental property taxes generated from the market-rate developments
within the Southdale 2 District to support the creation or retention of affordably priced housing in Edina. Based
on the amount of tax revenue estimated to be collected prior to expiration in 2021, between three and six
developments could potentially be supported. Financial support from other entities would also be required to
make these projects viable.
Staff will investigate potential sites in a variety of commercial/multi-family districts for possible implementation.
Staff will also seek additional approval from the State Legislature to use as much of the local funding as possible
before 2021.
2018 Edina HRA Year in Review Page 7
15) Open to Business Program
The HRA continues to partner with the Metropolitan Consortium of Community Developers (MCCD) to
provide free business consulting services for start-up businesses or expanding businesses located within Edina.
These services are also provided to Edina residents regardless of where the business may eventually be located.
The $5,000 annual contribution from the HRA supplements funding provided from Hennepin County.
In 2018, the Open to Business program provided service to 24 entrepreneurs with business interests or homes in
Edina. Staff at MCCD provided 165 hours of direct technical assistance with these clients.
The categories of businesses included start-ups, existing with growth opportunities and existing businesses with
operational challenges. The types of businesses ranged from fitness to consulting and from real estate to
packaging design.
The Open to Business program resulted in direct business loans of $188,000 to some of these clients. These
loans leveraged another $1.69 million in business investment.
FORECAST OF 2019 ACTIVITIES
The staff work plans for 2019 tentatively include these activities:
• Ongoing management of Market Street redevelopment, including re-opening the Center Ramp in Fall 2019
• Execute real estate transaction and secure site approval for 5146 Eden Ave.

INTRODUCTION:
This item pertains to the redevelopment of a commercial property located at 7200-7250 France Avenue. In
December 2018, the property owner/developer secured preliminary zoning approval to raze the aging medical and
office buildings and replace it with a new mixed-use project.
The new project includes approximately 309 new apartments, of which 20 percent will be affordably priced for at
least 15-years and approximately 30,000 square feet of new commercial space at the street level. The project
design includes below-grade structured parking and extensive public realm improvements, including a new shared
street/woonerf, new public plaza, preservation of mature grove of tree and improvements to West 72nd Street.
The developer has requested $12 million in tax increment financing (TIF) to address some of the extra-ordinary
costs.
Staff will provide an update of the evaluation and negotiations.

Board of the Edina Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Bill Neuendorf, Economic Development Manager
7200-7250 France Avenue – Project Update
Information / Background:
The property owner and developer of the commercial properties located at 7200 and 7250 France
Avenue have requested $12 million in tax increment financing (TIF) to fill a budget gap in the
proposed mixed-use project.
Project Status
Staff is in the midst of evaluating the TIF request. In general, staff supports the use of tax increment
financing on this site due to the declining condition of two existing buildings. The 7250 building has a
potentially unsafe structural problem in the parking garage which hinders its occupancy. The 7200
building has been declining for years. It is considered a “Class C” building that has not kept pace with
the marketplace. Staff also supports the use of TIF on this site due to the topography that results in
these properties retaining storm water for adjacent properties.
Staff also supports the use of TIF to help achieve community goals. The proposed project is designed
to include several public realm improvements that are consistent with the goals of the Greater
Southdale District Plan. The most significant public feature is the inclusion of a new north-south
shared street that provides a convenient alternative for drivers, pedestrians and bicyclists.
Improvements to 72nd Street would also be provided by the developer.
Staff is working with legal and financial advisors (Dorsey & Whitney and Ehlers Associates) to
prepare a Term Sheet that outlines the key business points of a potential TIF Redevelopment
Agreement. Some of the anticipated terms include:
• Consideration of a new TIF District to include both 7200 and 7250 France Ave.
o either a 20-year Housing District or a 26-year Redevelopment District
• All equity and construction debt secured by the developer
o no debt incurred by HRA or City
STAFF REPORT Page 2
• HRA/City to issue a single TIF Note after successful completion of the project
o TIF Note pledges to reimburse developer for eligible expenses based on actual costs
incurred
o Elements to be delivered to be in accordance with the approved zoning and site plans
include all public realm improvements, local improvements to 72nd Street, two
mixed-use apartment buildings and one building containing for-sale townhouses
• TIF Note sized to fill the financial gap in the pro forma as confirmed by actual project costs
o Actual amount of financial gap is still under review, but is anticipated to be less than
the $12 million requested
• 20 percent of the residential units to be affordably priced to households earning 60 percent
Area Median Income (AMI)
o Consistent with City policy and zoning approvals
o Affordable units distributed among studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units
• Affordably priced units to remain affordable for longer than the 15 years required by zoning
approvals
o Final term of affordability is still being evaluated
• Permanent public easements provided along all public elements including:
o Streetscape along France Avenue, 72nd Street and Gallagher Drive
o New north-south shared street, including the east-west extension to France Avenue
o Outdoor plaza on the second level of the 7200 building
o The extent of a parking easement is still under review
• Permanent conservation easement provided on the existing wooded area to be preserved as
a buffer between the new project and adjacent neighbors
• Permanent easement to allow storm water from adjacent properties and neighborhood to
collect on the site
• Typical look back provisions to ensure that the actual amount of incremental taxes provided
does not result in a higher than typical return to the developer
• Typical default and correction provisions
A full Term Sheet is anticipated to be presented for consideration by the HRA on February 14th and
by the City Council on February 20th.

INTRODUCTION:
This item pertains to the October 2018 T IF Redevelopment Agreement with Pentagon Village, LLC.
The Developer proposes changes to the site plan and project schedule to reflect the interest of the market place.
Updating renderings are attached.
The most significant change is in the layout and timing of the three project elements on the southern edge of the
site - the Extended Stay Hotel, Office #2 and the parking structure.
A staff report that summarizes the impact to the TIF Redevelopment Agreement is attached.
Please note that the site plan modifications are scheduled to be considered by the Planning Commission on
January 30 and the City Council on February 5. Related modifications to the TIF Redevelopment Agreement are
anticipated to be submitted for consideration by the HRA on January 31 with final consideration by the City
Council on February 5.

Chair & Commissioners of the Edina HRA
Bill Neuendorf, Economic Development Manager
Pentagon Village Redevelopment Agreement: Request for Amendment
No. 1
Information / Background:
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) executed a TIF Redevelopment Agreement with
Pentagon Village, LLC on October 16, 2018. This Agreement pertains to the complete
redevelopment of the 12-acre site commonly referred to as Pentagon South.
This memo is provided for informational purposes. It is provided as background to an amendment
to the Redevelopment Agreement that will be prepared soon. The amendment is anticipated to
address two items: updated timing/phasing of each element on the property and the scope of the
public parking easement.
Over the three months since the developer secured site plan approvals and the TIF Agreement,
they have begun site work and full project design promptly. This project includes several different
developers, owners and tenants. It will be constructed in multiple phases. It is important to clarify
that TIF Notes can be issued no later than July 15, 2019 – due to limitations of MN TIF Statutes.
As the developer continues to make swift progress on the site, they are requesting some changes
to the site plan that reflect the needs of the users. While the site plan changes will be reviewed by
the Planning Commission and City Council, they have potential impacts to the economic
development goals that were embodied in the TIF Redevelopment Agreement.
The economic impacts of the proposed changes are summarized in the following table:
Description of Change Economic Impact to 12-Acre Project
1. Construction of a larger
Dual Brand Hotel
Increases the anticipated tax base and increases the potential hotel tax
revenue generated on site. Also increases the vibrancy of the site by
having more evening occupants.
STAFF REPORT Page 2
Description of Change Economic Impact to 12-Acre Project
2. Construction of Extended
Stay Hotel at grade – rather
than on top of Parking
Structure #1
No change to the economics.
3. Combination of Parking
Structure #1 and #2 into a
single structure
Will likely increase the overall number of parking stalls that will be
included in the Public Parking Easement. This potential increase in public
parking comes at no greater expense to the HRA.
The impact to the overall economics is unable to be determined since the
timing and size of the future office buildings are unknown.
4. Construction of mixed-use
building as part of Phase 1
instead of Phase 2
Hastens the growth in tax base and delivers more daytime occupants to
the site more quickly.
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
Staff has worked with legal and financial advisors at Dorsey & Whitney and Ehlers Associates to
fully understand the impact to the economic development goals embodied in the TIF
Redevelopment Agreement.
After meeting with the developer to understand the needs of the project to remain on schedule,
staff anticipates bringing forward an Amendment to the Redevelopment Agreement on January 31,
2019. The Amendment is anticipated to be presented to City Council on February 5, 2019.
The amendment will address two aspects of the Redevelopment Agreement.
1) The anticipated timing of each new element will be updated.
2) The scope of the public parking easement will reflect the larger parking structure.
No further changes are anticipated. The amount of incremental property taxes pledged and the
overall timing of the project will remain the same.

Centennial
Lakes
Condominiums
Several hundred condominium
units were built adjacent to
the public park on land
formerly owned by the HRA.
TIF was used to facility the
development of several
components of the 100-acre
development.
The condominium owners will present a request to the
HRA pertaining to the Agreement that requires them to
make annual contributions to the maintenance and
operational needs of the adjacent park.
They are requesting to be released from this Agreement
ten years early.
The consideration of this request was anticipated when
the TIF Redevelopment Agreements were written in the
1980s and 1990s.
