Member Faust questioned if the Southdale TIF district is retired what happens to the
funds. Assistant Manager Hughes responded that generally funds go back to the taxing
jurisdictions in the proportion they were levied. The City would receive approximately
13% of the dollar, approximately 35% to the County and approximately 55% School
District, remainder to Metropolitan Mosquito Control, etc. Since the Southdale Center's
valuation was being protested none of the collected increments were spent and would
be available to be refunded to Southdale.
Member Hovland noted a enterprise fund surplus had not been established. Manager
Rosland told that he suggested this surplus be held in the liquor fund during budget
discussions and that a enterprise fund be established at a later time.

issue be placed on a fufme agenda for action during 1998.
