Consent
Action Requested
• Approve the Joint Powers Agreement with Dakota County CDA and various participating
communities to participate in the "Open to Business" program.
Project Summary/Issues
Attached for your consideration is a Joint Powers Agreement with the Dakota County Community
Development Agency (CDA) for the "Open to Business" program in Dakota County. The program is
offered through the Metropolitan Consortium of Community Developers (MCCD), and helps small
businesses and entrepreneurs that need individual advice and counseling, and access to capital that is
not available from the commercial banking system. Small businesses and entrepreneurs generate a
significant number of jobs and income, but are often unable to obtain traditional funding because they
are considered too risky by many lending institutions. The technical assistance and financing network
offered by MCCD can make a difference in creating a successful business.
The "Open to Business" program supports on -site business services specialist Laurie Crow who is
available for one -on -one consultations at regular office hours one day every month, as well as. Ms.
Crow provides expertise in start-up financing and business plan development, as well as meeting with
businesses at other locations at their convenience. In addition to Apple Valley, the participating
communities include Burnsville, Eagan, Farmington, Hastings, Inver Grove Heights, Lakeville,
Mendota Heights, Rosemount, South St Paul, West St. Paul, and small cities and townships in the
County.
Budget Impact
The CDA will continue to administer the program and fund half of MCCD's $135,000 fee;
participating cities fund the other half of the fee. Apple Valley's cost to participate in this program
continues to be $7,500, which represents 50% of the total cost for the City's participation of $15,000.
The funds have been allocated in the EDA's 2015 budget.

Action Requested
• Adopt the draft resolution authorizing submittal of an application to the Dakota County
Community Development Agency (CDA) for a Redevelopment Incentive Grant.
Project Summary/Issues
Attached for your consideration is a draft resolution and application to the Dakota County Community
Development Agency (CDA) for the Redevelopment Incentive Grant (RIG) program. The RIG
program was started in 2006 to encourage redevelopment and redevelopment planning. In 2015, there
is $1,000,000 available County wide for no more than one application from each city. Funding is
determined on a competitive basis, and requests were required to be submitted by January 15, 2015.
Due to the City Council and Economic Development Authority meeting schedules, staff prepared an
application and submitted it to the CDA. The CDA is anticipated to make a decision regarding the
funding by the middle of March.
A request of $99,585 was submitted to partially support a neighborhood public parking lot in the
Central Village area, which was designed to develop over a 10- to 15 -year period to become a fully
built out urban-style neighborhood for living, shopping, dining and walking and biking. The Central
Village Plan, which was adopted by the City in 2002, always envisioned a public parking solution as
the area intensified as a destination. The site discussed for the shared parking lot is a 1.64 -acre lot
north of the Grandstay Hotel. The City Engineer has begun preliminary designs and an estimated
budget of $298,755 is needed for a 135 -space parking lot. Surrounding businesses, such as the
Grandstay Hotel, Culver's, and Apple Valley Ford, are all becoming more intensified in their uses,
and the shared parking lot will help them solve peak parking demand that each experiences. The
shared parking lot will also help support Kelley Park especially when there are large special events.
Should the EDA choose not to authorize the submittal of the application, staff will request the
withdrawal of the application. Staff would then seek alternative funding sources for the proposed
parking area.
Budget Impact
The RIG application can be for up to 1/3 of the funding necessary, or $99,585. Staff has identified
funds from the Economic Development Authority budget for the remaining amount of $199,170. A
breakdown of the funds to be expended is shown in the following table.

I. RED:EVELOP
1. Describe Redevelopment Plan including the city's goals and need for the Redevelopment Area and
anticipated businesses, housing units, and other proposed components.
The subject site is located in the Central Village West area, generally west of Galaxie Avenue and 153rd
St. W., and part of the larger Central Village development area. The Central Village is an approved
walkable, planned neighborhood in the City's existing Downtown that allows for higher density housing,
and more intense commercial uses that share parking. The Central Village plan, adopted by the City in
2002, designed the area to develop over a 10- to 15 -year period to become a fully built out urban-style
neighborhood for living, shopping, dining and walking and biking that replaces what might have been:
low density, single story mid -sized boxes of commercial uses and warehouse space. The plan always
envisioned a public parking solution as the Central Village intensified as a destination. The Central
Village West is also located within the Apple Valley Transit Station Transit Improvement Area (TIA).
The requested $99,585 funding will be used towards the construction of a 135 -space parking lot on a
1.64 -acre lot that will be open to the public, and will support the existing commercial and housing
development in the area, as well as Kelley Park.
Attach copy o Plan. Central Village Plan attached.
2. Has an end user committed to redevelopment of site? The City of Apple Valley, as present owner
and the Apple Valley Economic Development Authority for the balance of funding needed for parking
improvements has been identified to support the construction of the shared parking area.
If end user committed, attach documentation of commitment.
3. Provide a brief history of the site including previous uses, activities, prior or existing contamination,
and other attempts at redevelopment.
The subject site had been used for farming before the City was incorporated. It also had an interim use
as .art of the .erimeter •rounds for the South.ort airstri . that existed until the late 1970's. Parcels north
of the site required the formation of Redevelopment TIF District 1 in 1984 to remove declining airstrip
improvements and incorporate new commercial uses. In 2002, the adoption of the Central Village Plan
led to a decade of consideration and development of multiple housing and commercial projects in initial
phases. This site has remained undeveloped and the need for a public parking solution in the Village
continues. The City of Apple Valley acquired the site through a County tax forfeiture process in 2014.
Based on the history of adjacent development and prior use, no soil constraints or contamination would
delay or prevent development of the proposed improvements.
4. Describe redevelopment within the Redevelopment Plan that has already been completed or is
currently underway.
Existing development in the Central Village includes the Grandstay Hotel, Legacy Townhomes (105
units), Haralson Apartments (36 units of supportive housing); the 196 -unit Gabella Apartment building,
and the 101 -unit Remington Cove Apartment building are currently under construction. Kelley Park is
also located in the Central Villa ge. Future development additionally includes approximately 470 units
of multi- family housing and approximately 150,000 sq. ft. of commercial and office uses. The future
development anticipated for the Central Village West area includes the Village Pointe Plaza
development, which will have a 78 -unit senior cooperative, and approximately 40,000 sq. ft. of
commercial uses; as well as a 168 -unit apartment site, now owned by the Dakota County CDA. A
development map is attached.
6. Smart Growth. Describe how the Redeveiopment Plan incorporates smart growth concepts, including
proximity to public transit, pedestrian- friendly design, maximizing green space, mixed land uses, and
community building elements.
The Central Village encompasses approximately 65 acres of land bounded by County Road 42, 155
Street W., Garrett Avenue and Foliage Avenue. The City Council approved the Central Village Plan on
May 9, 2002. The Central Village Plan, which uses Smart Growth principles, provides the regulatory
framework for the proposed development. Some characteristics of the Central Village Plan:
• The separation of the 153` Street W. travel lanes east of Garrett Avenue, creating a paired one-
way coupler system that reconnects at Foliage Avenue.
• The use of shared parking areas and on- street parking spaces.

7. Leverage. Itemize all other funding sources for the Redevelopment Plan. Please include all
previously awarded RIG grants.
Funding for the Central Village has been a combination of private and public funds. Total existing
development value is estimated at approximately $52,000,000. New value to be created is estimated to
exceed $60,000,000.
Public funds committed and /or expended for existing development in the Central Village total
approximately $6,050,000. All utilities, sidewalks and road improvement have been installed at a cost
in excess of $12 million. Public funds committed to future development in the Central Village West
development are listed below:
Itemize Redevelopment Plan expenses.
1. Environmental Benefits.
• Has the Redevelopment Plan area been found or suspected to be contaminated? No
• Does your Redevelopment Plan include the cleanup of contaminated soils, hazardous waste or
materials? If yes, please describe information on type of cleanup, what measures have been taken
to address the contamination, consultant reports, and/or Response Action Plan. Not applicable.
Describe positive environmental impacts of the redevelopment plan. The Central Village intensifies
land uses in a compact suburban downtown core within a defined Transit Improvement Area (TIA). On
site parking has been reduced, and multi -story development is required. By reducing the amount of
parking typically required of development, and constructing pedestrian connections leading to Apple
Valley Transit Station (AVTS), and the METRO Red Line, the reliance on autos is reduced. Regional
two cell storm water treatment has already been installed for the greater Central Village and adjacent
commercial areas. The landscaping and pedestrian amenities that circulate throughout the Village help
to manage storm water and are part of the ongoing place making.
9. Housing Affordability. Indicate the number of housing units planned in the Redevelopment Plan.
Attach separate sheet if necessary.
Will any existing affordable housing be demolished? No.
If yes, please explain.
Will there be any mechanisms to ensure long -term affordability? Yes.
If yes, please describe. Several of the housing developments in the Central Village contain
affordable housing components, specifically:
• Haralson Apartments — 36 units of supportive housing serving low- income adults, and adults
with serious mental illnesses and other disabilities. Four of the supportive housing units are
targeted for adults meeting the state's definition of long -term homelessness. All units are
permanent affordability at 30% AMI.
• Gabella/Galante — 322 units includes 64 units affordable at 50% AMI for at least 20 years.

• Gabella/Galante — 322 units includes 64 units affordable at 50% AMI for at least 20 years.
• Village Pointe Plaza senior cooperative — 78 units offering limited equity owner- occupied
housing will be available to residents who are 55 years and older. Twenty percent (20 %) of the
units will be priced to be affordable to those who make 50% AMI. Additionally the cooperative
offers a perpetual affordable mechanism for all of the units, and there is a requirement for a fixed
annual appreciation of no more than 2% to the shares price for every new buyer in perpetuity,
making the cooperative housing affordable into the future for at least the teun of the 40 -year
HUD insured mortgage and beyond. Historically, this mechanism has created an artificially
deflated share payment into the future allowing for subsequent owners to purchase the units at a
significantly lower market price of other competitive market rate housing developments.
• Future CDA Apartments — 168 units of market -rate apartments with 25% of the emits held for
residents whose income is 50% or less of the median income; and /or not more than 45% of the
units held for residents whose income is 60% or less of the median income.
10. Economic Benefits
What are the current property taxes for the Redevelopment Plan? $1,098,641
What will the estimated property tax be after redevelopment? $3,150,000
How was this figure determined? By examining existing Dakota County property tax values on
developed lots, City staff extrapolated estimated property tax for new development.
Who determined it? City staff
Project the number of new jobs created after redevelopment. Total new jobs = 728 FTEs.
Number of new jobs with wages greater than $14.00 per hour = 65
Project the number of jobs retained after redevelopment. Total retained jobs = 438 FTEs.

6. List other sources of funds requested or considered but not obtained for the Project, and explain why
they were not obtained, to the best of your knowledge. (The purpose of this question is to ensure all
funds have been exhausted.)
The City requested funding for a 400 -space parking ramp from the Metropolitan Council in 2013
through an LCDA grant. The grant was not approved because it was not deemed to be catalytic for new
development. The plan for the public parking area has since been scaled back in size to align with
available funds. The proposed parking lot is meant to serve existing and future development, and not
necessarily act as a catalyst for development.
7. IF the project includes property acquisition, clearance and/or construction activities, describe how
owners, tenants, and businesses will be temporarily or permanently relocated within the Redevelopment
Plan Attach relocation plan, if applicable.
Not applicable. Site is vacant, and no relocation is required.
8. Readiness To Proceed. Please provide detailed project timeline with all actions, phases, and
anticipated dates for completion.
The proposed parking area will be constructed in 2015. Funds are available through the Apple Valley
EDA, and the City has the means and experience to ensure construction will occur.
2. Please indicate whether any of the following entitlement or due diligence actions are required or have
been completed for the Project:
Zoning amendments or variances: Required to allow for shared public parking lot. Status:

MEMO
Finance Department
DATE: January, 15, 2015
SUBJECT: Approve Quit Claim Deed Related to Ground Lease with ISD 196 for the
Financing of the Stadiums at the High Schools.
Background
In October 1998, the Economic Development Authority as lessee entered into a ground lease
agreement with ISD 196 for the land at the Apple Valley and Eastview High Schools where the
stadiums are located. The EDA in turn issued the 1998 Lease Revenue Bonds to finance stadium
improvements at both high schools. The 1998 Lease Revenue Bonds were paid off in June 2014
so the EDA no longer has a reason to retain any interest in the property.
The attached quit claim deed is the recordable document that transfers the EDA's interest in the
property to the School District. This interest was satisfied with the retirement of the previously
issued Lease Revenue Bonds
Recommended Action:
Authorize the President and Secretary to execute the quit claim deed conveying the EDA's
interest in the site to ISD 196.
