This work is being accomplished in partnership with the United States Army Corps of Engineers. The amount requested for this significant public improvement is $2.4 million. The source of funds is the $14,402,000 designated for riverfront use by �ity Council action in July of this year. This represents the city's 25% share of the total cost as provided by the Corps of Engineers. It should be noted that this provides the city with a very financially attractive 3:1 leverage ratio of federal to tocal dollars. The particulars are discussed on the following pages of this report. BACKGROUND The Mississippi River has flooded the City of Saint Paul along the south shore across from the downtown area repeatedly since the first major flood was recorded in 1867. Following a record flood in 1952 the Corps of Engineers was authorized to design and construct a flood barrier extending from the western end of Harriet Island on the south bank of the Mississippi River to a point west of the Saint Paul Downtown Airport (See attachment A: Map of Flood Control Project Area). The levee/floodwall protects Riverview, a major 315-acre industrial/commercial development site as well as many other developed and emerging �areas on the south bank. It is currently estimated that the protected area contains $164 million of existing investment. This area is now the focus of a concentrated development effort on the part of the City of Saint Paul with extensive commercial as well as new housing development and recreation uses proposed for the area to be protected by the proposed heightened flood barrier. When proposed investment of $167 miltion is added to the existing amount, the new flood protection works will protect a total of $332 million of public and private investment. Following the two floods which occurred in 1965 and 1969, the Corps of Engineers initiated a feasibility study to determine what measures could be taken to further improve flood protection in the area. This study was completed in 1981. Among other findings, the Corps recommended that the levee/floodwall be increased by an average of four feet in height. Recognizing the critical nature of obtaining adequate flood protection at an early date as a part of the Riverfront Initiative, the Mayor led a group of city officials to Washington, D.C. last summer to meet with the c'�ty's congressional delegation and hlgh ranking officials of the Corps of Engineers. l�hat meeting resutted in a heighter�d awareness on the part of everyone preseM that speed was of the essence in moving thls project forward. . - : � . � .. � � ��-i9f� As a resuit of that meeting and earlier ones with local Corps representatives in Saint Paul, a full year was eliminated from the design and construction timetable. RIVERFRONT INITIATIVE In 1984 the Mayor initiated the Riverfront Initiative. This program called for extensive redevelopment of both the north and south banks of the Mississippi River in downtown Saint Paul. A 20 member Riverfront Commission was appointed by the Mayor with the concurrence of the City Council to guide the planning and development of the river corridor in downtown. An 18 month planning process yielded a specific development program for the riverfront. With this study underway, the Corps of Engineers and the City decided to move ahead on the flood control project so both the levee/floodwall reconstruction and the city's redevelopment plans might coincide with and enhance each other. In 1986 the Corps received preliminary design and engineering funds for fiscal year 1987. That same year, the Riverfront Commission, Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council pre-approved the "Saint Paul Riverfront Redevelopment Plan" which had been completed that year. In November 1987, the city established a $23 million tax increment financing district in the riverfront to help spur private development. The first project, a $25 million office building on the former American Hoist property, that will be the future home of the Minnesota Department of Revenue, is now under construction and scheduled for occupancy this year. A total of approximately $167 million in new commercial and housing development is proposed or already under construction in the area behind the flood barrier. This is in addition to more than $164 million in existing industrial and commercial development in the Riverview Industrial Park and Riverview Industrial Park West. The Saint Paul Flood Control Project, now underway with the Corps of Engineers and the City of Saint Paul, is seen as the keystone to redevelopment of the south bank of the Mississippi, particularly for the parcels where housing, new office, commercial and industrial space are proposed. the City has committed millions of dollars (See attachment B: Public and Private Investment in the Saint Paul Riverfront) and several years of planning to its Riverfront Initiative. The flood protection reconstruction is a critical need for the city, since financing of the tax increment district is keyed to new development that will be dependent on the completion of the higher flood barrier. Proposed housing development on the site becomes feasible with increased flood protection. PROJECT FINANCING The 1981 Corps of Engineers feasibility report concluded tMat improvements to the flood barrier would cost $7 million. Recently this cost was updated to $9.1 million. Federal law requires that this cost be shared with the local sponsoring govemment, the City of Saint Paul, at a ratio of 75 percent federal to 25 percent local sponsor dollars. This means the city share of the cost of basic flood protection would be approximately $2.3 million in 1988 dollars. Increasing this at 496 per year for a four year period to allow for inflation and increasing construction costs yields a need for $2.7 million for design and construction as the city's 25°� local share. - 2 - • � /.I�/ ��//` � V� The city will cover its share of the cost through a combination of services (preparation of the plans and specifications and construction), provision of land for easements and rights-of-way for the project. The city proposes to begin assuming its portion of its project cost share as early as 1989 with the signing of the 215 Agreement with the Corps of Engineers. This agreement when approved by the Corps and city spells out the specifics of the contractual arrangement and allows the city to proceed with work on the levee/floodwall prior to the starting of construction by the Corps scheduled for 1991. The City Council adopted Resolution No. 88-611 on May 5, 1988 directing the sum of $14,402,000 of sewer revenue bond proceeds be placed in a separate account in the Capital Improvement Fund and be frozen pending further City Council direction. The City Council on July 26, 1988 adopted Resolution No. 88-1205 that the account balance be retained in the Capital Improvement Fund dedicated to riverfront capitol improvements and that capital improvement projects including those that displace any current ;.ise of the river or require investment of over $100,000 or physically alter the course of the river or the banks of the river will be reviewed by the C.I.B. Committee and approved by City Council on their merits on a project by project basis. Resolution No. 88-1206 dated July 26, 1988 did allocate $1 million to the 1987 Capital Improvement Budget as follows: Levee specific design work $.30 million (entire levee) Site development plan - Harriet Island $.30 million Site preparation design - Harriet Island $.05 million Temporary site improvements $.05 million Promenade - Harriet Island $.05 million Marina Lower Harbor $.25 million $1,000,000 It will be noted that the first item above is $300,000 for levee specific design work. Noted previously was a total local share need of $2.7 million for the city's portion of levee/floodwall design and construction. Therefore, the remaining local share is $2.4 million ($2.7 million minus .30 million). This request to the Capital Improvement Budget Committee is for $2.4 million dollars for the purpose stated. This allocation now will permit the city to proceed in its partnership with the Corps of Engineers. It will also accelerate the date by which this important work is completed, thereby permitting marketing and development of the land parcels scheduled for private investment. This in turn will permit the city to meet the timing required to meet its financial obligations relating to the $23 mitlion tax increment bonds issued in November 1987. - 3 - e . � i �1,,,(�' .� L � � ` ' � �� �I � � � � �/ _� vl a b 1��7 r- a . �i �� � � � aa aZ �� U � � Y �' � � O � . o�C� o� l � � —�--- � Q' (A NN �� � u w� � a�� .-- � {� W � � �! � .. s � a � Z � p� N i � Z � J� O y y � � � J � •- Z -�. _ � � ' " / � 8� o�" � � � � �' Q a , � $ VN� � p.

The play�round will be unique due to its scale, themes and a strong emphasis on a wide interest and age range as well as handicapped accessibility. The adventure playground will provide entertainment and education for children visiting the park, and will be conveniently located between the pavilion area and the excursion docks. While waiting for an excursion trip or during a visit to the pavilion, the play feature will begin to introduce an awareness of the river. The design will provide for physical and mental challenges with a specific theme and emphasis demonstrating one or more aspects relating to river history, hydraulics, commercial navigation, etc. One of the playground themes has been developed to the concept stage. This was accomplished through a donation of Professional Services by Ellerbe Architects in conjuction with an interested group of citizens, the Downtown Riverfront Commission and the Division of Parks and Recreation. The theme of this part of the desi gn reco�nizes Harriet Bishop, the first school teacher in Saint Paul and the Park s namesake. The theme creates a playground that will contain a commemorative to Harriet Bishop, multi- cultural , riverfront and pioneer life themes, and will be both challeng ing and educational . This and other themes will be further developed as the design progresses. Of particular note are two aspects to the funding of this project: 1. Some of the funds are expected to be donated, up to an amount of $50,000.00. 2. Harriet Island is a Regional Park and as such the cost of the playground should be reimbursed to the City by the Metropolitan Parks and Open Space Commission of the Metropolitan Council , at a future date. eos . . . 1,��. � � ��� 'r .�° 0122 4 '��,�;P�#t�C� � ReCreation DEPARTI�IENT . - - - - - rdm CONTACT NAME "` PHONE ` +� �t" , DATE . .
