WHEREAS, the HRA and City Council have provided an opportunity to members of the
Ramsey County Board and Independent School District No. 625 to meet with the HRA Board
and City Council and HRA has presented the Board members of said County and School District
its estimate of the fiscal and economic implications of the proposed tax increment
financing district; and
WHEREAS, on August l� 1982, the City Council conducted a public hearing upon the
Tax Increment Financing Plan after pu6lished notice in the Saint Paul Pioneer Press and
Di s patch on August 1, 1982; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council heard testimony from all interested
parties appearing on the creation of said District, reviewed and considered the Project
Redevelopment Plan and Tax Increment Financing Plan with supporting analysis , attachments ,
maps and tables , and the findings and determinations of the St. Paul Planning Commission
and of HRA, respecting said Rroject and District;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Council of the City of Saint Paul , in view
of the foregoing here6y approved as findings , that the following further findings are
hereby made:
1 . That, upon the evidence presented in the public hearing and upon the
data, information, and statistical evidence specifically stated in the
Tax Increment Financing Plan, and as supplemented in the application
of the HRA to the Minnesota Department of Energy, Planning and Devel-
opment for approval of commercial development revenue bonds to assist
Phase I of the District and by other information available to and
knowledge of the Councilmembers, the site comprising the District
individually is an economic development district within the meaning
and provision of Minnesota Statutes , Section 273.73, Subdivision 12,
in that the proposed development and redevelopment will result in
increased employment and enhancement of the tax base of the City;
2. That the proposed development or redevelopment has not occurred nor
would it occur solely through private investment within the reasonably
forseeable future without significant public financial and other
assistance proposed, that usual sources of public revenue are not
adequate to provide the required level of such public assistance and
that, therefore, the use of tax increment financing as proposed in the
Tax Increment Financing Plan is necessary to the accomplishment of the
development and redevelopment of the District in accordance with the
Project and District Plans ;
3. That the tax increment financing plan conforms to the Saint Paul
Comprehensive Plan which is the general plan for the development of
the municipality as a whole;
4. That the Tax Increment Financing Plan will afford maximum opportunity,
consistent with the sound needs of the municipality as a whole, for
the development or redevelopment of the district by private enterprise;
and
5. That the City of Saint Paul elects the method of tax increment compu-
tation set forth in Section 273.76, Subdivision 3, clause (a) .

Tax Increment Financing Plan
- Brief History - � �
On May 25, 1982, the "Iris Park Place" project, also known as "Palen-Kimball/Hammond
� Building" project, was given preliminary approval by the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority to issue commercial revenue bonds , not to exceed $2,700,0OO. ,to assist in
.financing the purchase and rehabilitation of the Hammond Building located at 1885
University Avenue, Saint Paul . The project is to be the maiden venture of the
Neighborhood Business Development Program. The City Council on July 29, 1982 approved
the submission of our UDAG application for this project.
At this juncture, staff is requesting that the City Council create a Tax Increment
Financing District and adopt a Tax Increment Financing Plan for the purpose of
further financing the projert. The Tax Increment Financing Plan for Iris Park Place
project has been sent to the County .and School Boards for their review. The Project
has also been reviewed by the Planning Commissian and resolved to be in conformance with
the Comprehensive Plan.
Staff will present the Iris Park Place Tax Increment Financing Plan to both the Finance
Committee of the City Council :and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority on August
12, 1982. On August 19, 1982 there will be a public hearing and a request for the final
adoption by the City Council .
