The Commissioners of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Edina, Minnesota (the "HRA") and the City of Edina, Minnesota (the "City"), have previously approved the Grandview Area Redevelopment Plan (the "Redevelopment Plan") and Grandview Redevelopment Project No. 1 (the "Redevelopment Project") to be undertaken pursuant thereto, and in order to finance the public redevelopment costs to be incurred by the City and the HRA in connection with the Redevelopment Plan and Redevelopment Project, the HRA and the City have approved Grandview Tax Increment Financing Plan (the "Financing Plan"), which establishes a tax increment financing district which is designated by the HRA as • the Grandview Tax Increment Financing District (Hennepin County No. 1202) (the "District"). On April 7, 1997 and December 7, 1999, the HRA and City approved amendments to the Redevelopment Plan, Redevelopment Project and Financing Plan (the "Amendments"). The HRA has approved an amendment to the Redevelopment Project, the Redevelopment Plan and the Tax Increment Financing Plan, as amended by the Amendments, which is entitled "Modification of Grandview Redevelopment Project No. 1, Grandview Area Redevelopment Plan and Grandview Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Finance District No. 1202" (the "2000 Amendment"). The 2000 Amendment establishes Hazard Substance Subdistrict No. 1 (the "HSS") within the District, and authorizes the use of tax increment revenues derived from the HSS to pay or reimburse costs specified within Minnesota Statutes; Section 469.176, subdivision 4c, within the HSS. 2. This Council on August 15, 2000, held a public hearing on the 2000 Amendment after notice of the public hearing was published in the official newspaper of the City not less than ten (10) days prior to the date of the hearing. At such public hearing all persons desiring to be heard with respect to the 2000 Amendment were given an opportunity to express their views with respect thereto. 3. This Council has previously found that the District is a redevelopment district within the scope of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, subdivision 10 and the 2000 Amendment will not change such prior findings. The 2000 Amendment further serves the original goals and objectives of the City and HRA in approving the Redevelopment Plan, the Redevelopment Project and the Financing Plan and the Amendments, by redeveloping property in the City in order to prevent or reduce blight, blighting factors and the causes of blight, and by providing needed public facilities.

Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, subdivision 4, it is hereby found that: (A) The District, is a redevelopment district, as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, subdivision 10, for the reasons set forth in previous findings by this Council, and the 2000 Amendment does not alter these previous findings. (B) The proposed development to be undertaken in accordance with the Redevelopment Plan, as amended by the 2000 Amendment, in the opinion of this Council would not occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future and therefor the use of tax increment financing and the HSS is deemed necessary. (C) The Financing Plan, as amended by the 2000 Amendment, conforms to the general plan for the development of the City as a whole. (D) The Financing Plan, as amended by the 2000 Amendment, will afford maximum opportunity consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole for the development of the area subject to Redevelopment Plan by private enterprise. • (E) The City confirms its election of the method of tax increment computation set forth in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, subdivision 3, clause(a)with respect to the District. Passed by the Council this 15th day of August, 2000.
