RESOLUTION RECITING A PROPOSAL FOR A FINANCING PROGRAM
FOR A MULTIFAMILY RENTAL HOUSING DEVELOPMENT PROJECT,
GIVING PRELIMINARY APPROVAL TO THE PROJECT AND THE ISSUANCE OF HOUSING REVENUE BONDS,
PURSUANT TO MINNESOTA STATUTES, CHAPTER 462C,
AND APPROVING A HOUSING PLAN AND PROGRAM (THE COTTAGES OF MAPLEWOOD WEST PROJECT)
a.Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C (the "Act ") confers upon cities the power to
issue revenue bonds to finance a program for the purposes of planning,
administering, making or purchasing loans with respect to one or more
multifamily housing developments within the boundaries of the City;
b.The City of Maplewood, Minnesota (the "City ") has received from The Cottages of
Maplewood West Limited Partnership (the "Developer ") a proposal that the
City undertake a program to finance a Project hereinafter described,
through the issuance of revenue bonds or obligations (in one or more
series) (the "Bonds ") pursuant to the Act;
c.The City desires to facilitate the development of rental housing within the
community; encourage the development of affordable housing opportunities
21 12 -30 -91

facilities designed for occupancy by elderly persons; and encourage the
development of blighted or underutilized land and structures within the
boundaries of the City' and the Project will assist the City in
achieving these objectives;
d.The Developer is currently engaged in the business of real estate development.
The Project to be financed by the Bonds is the acquisition, construction
and equipping of an approximately 97,500 square foot multifamily rental
housing development of approximately 106 rental units all designed for
elderly housing located in the vicinity of Gervais Avenue, west of White
Bear Avenue in the City of Maplewood, Minnesota, and consists of the
construction and equipping of buildings thereon which will result in the
provision of additional rental housing opportunities to persons within
the community;
e.The City has been advised by representatives of the Developer that conventional,
commercial financing to pay the capital costs of the Project is
available only on a limited basis and at such high costs of borrowing
that the economic feasibility of operating the project would be
significantly reduced, but the Developer has also advised the City that
with the aid of municipal financing, and resulting low borrowing cost,
the Project is economically more feasible;
f.A public hearing on the Project was held on December 23, 1991, after notice was
published and materials made available for public inspection at the City
Hall, all as required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.154,
Subdivision 4, of the Act, at which public hearing all those appearing
who desired to speak were heard and written comments were accepted; and
g.No public official of the City has either a direct or indirect financial interest
in the Project nor will any public official either directly or
indirectly benefit financially from the Project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Maplewood,
Minnesota, as follows:
1.The Council hereby finds that no information presented at the hearing has caused
it to reject the Project.
2.The City hereby gives preliminary approval to the proposal of the Developer that
the City undertake the Project, described above, and the program of
financing therefor, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C,
consisting of the acquisition and construction of multifamily rental
housing facilities within the City pursuant to the Developer's
specifications and to a revenue agreement between the City and the
Developer on such terms and conditions with provisions for revision from
time to time as necessary, so as to produce income and revenues
sufficient to pay, when due, the principal and interest on the Bonds in
the total principal amount of approximately $5,200,000 to be issued
pursuant to the Act to finance the acquisition and construction of the
Project; and said agreement may also provide for the entire interest of
the Developer therein to be mortgaged to the purchasers of the Bonds, or
a trustee for the holder(s) of the Bonds; and the City, acting by and
through the City, hereby undertakes preliminarily to issue its bonds in
accordance with such terms and conditions.
3.At the option of the City, the financing may be structured so as to take
advantage of whatever means are available and are permitted by law to
enhance the security for, or marketability of, the Bonds; provided that
22 12 -30 -91
any such financing structure must be consented to by the Developer.
4.On the basis of information available to the City it appears, and the City hereby
finds, that the Project constitutes a multifamily housing development
within the meaning of subdivision 5 of Section 462C.02 of the Act; that
the availability of the financing under the Act and the willingness of
the City to furnish such financing will be a substantial inducement to
the Developer to undertake the Project, and that the effect of the
Project, if undertaken, will be to encourage the provision of additional
multifamily senior rental housing opportunities to residents of the
City, and to promote more intensive development and use of land within
the City.
5.The Project and the program to finance the Project by the issuance of revenue
bonds, is hereby given preliminary approval by the City subject to the
approval of the Metropolitan Council and the Minnesota Housing Finance
Agency ( "MHFA ") and subject to final approval by the City, the Developer
and the purchasers of the Bonds as to ultimate details of the financing
of the project.
6.The housing program for financing the project prepared in accordance with the
provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 462C.03 is hereby approved.
The City Clerk is authorized to submit the application to MHFA for its
approval.
7.The Developer has agreed and it is hereby determined that any and all costs
incurred by the City in connection with the financing of the Project,
whether or not the project is carried to completion and whether or not
approved by MHFA, will be paid by the Developer.
8.Briggs and Morgan, Professional Association, acting as bond counsel, is
authorized to assist in the preparation and review of necessary
documents relating to the Project, to consult with the City Attorney,
Developer and purchasers of the Bonds (or trustee for the purchasers of
the Bonds) as to the maturities, interest rates and other terms and
provisions of the Bonds and as to the covenants and other provisions of
the necessary documents and submit such documents to the City for final
approval.
9.Nothing in this Resolution or the documents prepared pursuant hereto shall
authorize the expenditure of any municipal funds on the Project other
than the revenues derived from the Project or otherwise granted to the
City for this purpose. The Bonds shall not constitute a charge, lien or
encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property or funds of the City
except the revenue and proceeds pledged to the payment thereof, nor
shall the City be subject to any liability thereon. The holder of the
Bonds shall never have the right to compel any exercise of the taxing
power of the City to pay the outstanding principal on the Bonds or the
interest thereon, or to enforce payment thereon against any property of
the City, except such property as may be expressly pledged for the
security of the Bonds. The Bonds shall recite in substance that Bonds,
including the interest thereon, are payable solely from the revenue and
proceeds pledged to the payment thereof. The Bonds shall not constitute
a debt of the City within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory
limitation.
10.In anticipation of the approval by MHFA and the issuance of the Bonds to
finance all or a portion of the Project, and in order that completion of the
project will not be unduly delayed when approved, the Developer is hereby
authorized to make such expenditures and advances toward payment of that
23 12 -30 -91
portion of the costs of the Project to be financed from the proceeds of the
Bonds, as the Developer considers necessary, including the use of interim,
short -term financing, subject to reimbursement from the proceeds of the
Bonds, if any, when delivered but otherwise without liability on the part of
the City.
11.The actions of City Staff in causing the notice of public hearing to be published
in the Maplewood Review are hereby ratified, confirmed and adopted.
12.The Developer shall enter into various agreements with the City which shall
impose the following restrictions on the Developer and the Project:
a.Construction must begin by December 23, 1992. The City Council may grant
a time extension if just cause is shown;
b.Contracts entered into with contractors doing work on the Project shall

2)The contractor shall compensate employees with wages and financial
remuneration as provided under the United States Code,

Minnesota Statutes 1985, Sections 177.41 - 177.44.
3)The contractor shall be required to employ Minnesota residents in at
least 80% of the jobs created by the project; and at least
60% of the group shall be residents of the seven - county
metropolitan area. Resident status under both of the above
categories shall be determined as of the date of this
resolution. However, if the contractor can show that these
quotas are not feasible because of a shortage of qualified
personnel in specific skills, the contractor may request the
City Council for a release from the two residency
requirements. The requirements shall continue for the
duration of the construction project.
4)The contractor shall be an active participant in a State of Minnesota
apprentice program, approved by the Department of Labor and
Industry.
5)All provisions of these tax - exempt finance requirements shall apply to
all subcontractors working on the Project.
c.A written opinion, with supporting justification from a qualified expert
acceptable to the City, shall be submitted with the application

multiple dwellings in the City that are existing or have
received preliminary City approval over the metropolitan
average.
2)There is reasonable assurance that the Project will be able to comply
with the federal, county and City low -to- moderate income
requirements over the life of the bond issue.
24 12 -30 -91
d.The bond indenture for the Bonds shall require:
1)The Developer to periodically certify to the City and trustee, compliance
with the federal low -to- moderate income requirement. The
frequency of certification shall be determined on a case -by-
case basis.
2)The trustee is to inform the City of noncompliance trends with federal
low -to- moderate income requirements.
e.As a condition of approving the Project, a lump -sum fee at Bond closing or an
annual fee over the life of the Bond will be required. The City
reserves the right to choose the fee option that will be the most
beneficial to the City. This choice will be made when the final
resolution for the Project and the Bonds is adopted. Factors to be
taken into account will include, but not be limited to:
1)The size of the Bond issue.
2)Unbudgeted City funding needs at the time of the request.
3)The number of requests.
4)Federal arbitrage considerations.
f.The formula for each fee option is as follows:
1)Annual fee:
a)Full bond maturity: An annual fee payable on each anniversary of the
Bond issue of not less than one - eighth of one percent of

Bond issue shall be paid at Bond closing, subject to
federal arbitrage restrictions.
b)Prepayment of Bonds: The same as the full Bond maturity requirement,

prior to final Bond maturity, the developer shall
pay, at the time of such prepayment, a lump -sum fee
equal to the present value of the remaining annual
fee payments, from the date of prepayment to final
Bond maturity, subject to federal arbitrage
restrictions.
2)Lump -sum fee: At Bond closing, a lump -sum fee shall be paid that is
equivalent to the present value of the annual fee option.
The present value must be determined by a qualified expert,
acceptable to the City.
g.At least 20% of the units shall have households with an adjusted gross income
of 50% or less of the metropolitan median income or at least 40% of
the units shall have households with an adjusted gross income of 60%
of the median income.
h.At least 75% of the units shall have households that have an adjusted gross
income of not more than 110 percent of the metropolitan median
income.
i.At least 50% of the units shall be affordable to households which have
adjusted gross incomes of no more than 80% of the metropolitan
25 12 -30 -91
median income.

RESOLUTION APPROVING THE MODIFICATION OF THE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
RELATING TO DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT NO. 1,
AND ESTABLISHING HOUSING DISTRICT NO. 1 -4
AND THE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN RELATING THERETO
WHEREAS:
A. The City of Maplewood (the "City ") has heretofore created Development
District No. 1;
B. The Cottages of Maplewood West Limited Partnership is proposing that the
City change the development program for Development District No. 1 and establish
Housing District No. 1 -4 within Development District No. 1 and adopt a Tax
Increment Financing Plan with respect thereto under the provisions of Minnesota
Statutes, Sections 469.124 to 469.134 and 469.174 to 469.179 (collectively the
Act ") ;
C. The City Council has investigated the facts and has caused to be prepared a
revised Development Program for Development District No. 1 and a proposed Tax
Increment Financing Plan for Housing District No. 1 -4; and
D. The City has performed all actions the law requires to be performed before
the creation of Housing District No. 1 -4 and the adoption of the proposed
revision of the Development Program and the adoption of the Tax Increment
Financing Plan relating thereto, including, but not limited to, notification of
Ramsey County, Independent School District No. 622 and Special Intermediate
School District No. 916 having taxing jurisdiction over the property to be
included in Housing District No. 1 -4, and the holding of a public hearing after
publishing and mailing notice as required by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Maplewood
as follows:
1. Development Program The City Council adopts the revised Development Program
for Development District No. 1, a copy of which is on file in the office
of the City Clerk, as the Development Program for Development District
No. 1.
2. Housing District No. 1 -4 . The City Council approves the establishment in the
City of Housing District No. 1 -4 within Development District No. 1. The
initial boundaries of Housing District No. 1 -4 are fixed and determined as
described in the Tax Increment Financing Plan.
3. Increment Financing Plan The City Council adopts the Tax Increment
Financing Plan as the tax increment financing plan for Housing District No.
1 -4 and the City Council makes the following findings:
26 12 -30 -91
a)Housing District No. 1 -4 is a housing district as defined in Minnesota
Statutes, Section 469.174, subd. 11, the specific basis for such
determination being that the multifamily rental housing development to
be undertaken by The Cottages of Maplewood West Limited Partnership
consists of a project, or a portion of a project, intended for
occupancy, in part, by persons or families of low and moderate income.
Low and moderate income is as defined in chapter 462A, Title II of the
National Housing Act of 1934, the National Housing Act of 1959, the
United States Housing Act of 1937, as amended, Title V of the Housing
Act of 1949, as amended, any other similar present or future federal,
state, or municipal legislation, or the regulations promulgated under
any of those acts.
b)The proposed redevelopment, in the opinion of the City Council, would not
occur solely through private investment within the reasonably
foreseeable future and therefore the City Council deems the use of tax
increment financing necessary.
The reasons supporting this finding are that:
The Cottages of Maplewood West Limited Partnership has represented to the City that
they would not undertake the project in Maplewood without the City's use of
tax increment financing. Private investment will not finance these
development activities because of prohibitive costs. It is necessary to
finance these development activities with tax increment financing so other
development by private enterprise will occur within Development District No.
1.
c)The Tax Increment Financing Plan for Housing District No. 1 -4 conforms to
the City of Maplewood's general plan for development or redevelopment.
The reasons supporting this finding are that:
i)Housing District No. 1 -4 is properly zoned; and
ii) The Tax Increment Financing Plan will generally compliment and serve to
implement policies adopted in the City's comprehensive plan.
d)The Tax Increment Financing Plan will allow maximum opportunity,
consistent with the sound needs of the City of Maplewood as a whole, for
the development or redevelopment of Development District No. 1 by
private enterprise.
The reasons supporting this finding are that:
The development activities are necessary so that development and redevelopment by
private enterprise can occur within Development District No. 1.
4. Public Purpose The revised Development Program for Development District No.
1, and the adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Housing District
No. 1 -4 conforms in all respects to the requirements of the Act and will
help fulfill a need to develop an area of the City which is already built up
to provide employment opportunities to improve the tax base, and to improve
the general economy of the State and thereby serves a public purpose.
S. Certification . The City Council requests that the Ramsey County Auditor
certify the original net tax capacity of Housing District No. 1 -4, as
described in the Tax Increment Financing Plan, and certify in each year
thereafter the amount by which the original net tax capacity has increased
27 12 -30 -91
or decreased according to the Act. The City Council also authorizes and
directs the City Clerk to promptly send this request to the County Auditor
in such form and content as the Auditor may specify, together with a list of
all properties within Housing District No. 1 -4 for which the City has issued
building permits during the 18 months immediately preceding the adoption of
this Resolution.
6. Filing The City Council further authorizes and directs the City Clerk to
file a copy of the Development Program and Tax Increment Financing Plan for
Housing District No. 1 -4 with the Commissioner of Revenue.
7. Administration . The City Council assigns the administration of Development
District No. 1 to the City Clerk who shall from time to time be granted such
powers and duties pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.130 and
469.131 as the City Council may think appropriate.
