If Bonds are prepaid, the prepayments shall be allocated to the portions of debt service (and
hence allocated to the payment of Bonds treated as relating to a particular portion of debt service) as
provided in this paragraph. If the source of prepayment moneys is the general fund of the City, or
other generally available source, the prepayment may be allocated to any of the portions of debt
service in such amounts as the City shall determine. If the source of a prepayment is special
assessments pledged to the Improvements, the prepayment shall be allocated to the Improvement
Portion of debt service. If the source of prepayment is tax increment revenues pledged to the TIF
Project, the prepayment shall be allocated to the TIF Portion of debt service.
(c) Book Entry Only System. The Depository Trust Company, a limited purpose trust
company organized under the laws of the State of New York or any of its successors or its successors
to its functions hereunder (the "Depository") will act as securities depository for the Bonds, and to this
end:
(i) The Bonds shall be initially issued and, so long as they remain in book entry form only
(the "Book Entry Only Period"), shall at all times be in the form of a separate single fully
registered Bond for each maturity of the Bonds; and for purposes of complying with this
requirement under paragraphs 5 and 10 Authorized Denominations for any Bond shall
be deemed to be limited during the Book Entry Only Period to the outstanding principal
amount of that Bond.

City Council Meeting Minutes 14
(ii) Upon initial issuance, ownership of the Bonds shall be registered in a bond register
maintained by the Bond Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in the name of CEDE & CO.,
as the nominee (it or any nominee of the existing or a successor Depository, the
"Nominee").
(iii) With respect to the Bonds neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall have any
responsibility or obligation to any broker, dealer, bank, or any other financial institution
for which the Depository holds Bonds as securities depository (the "Participant") or the
person for which a Participant holds an interest in the Bonds shown on the books and
records of the Participant (the "Beneficial Owner"). Without limiting the immediately
preceding sentence, neither the City, nor the Bond Registrar, shall have any such
responsibility or obligation with respect to (A) the accuracy of the records of the
Depository, the Nominee or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in
the Bonds, or (B) the delivery to any Participant, any Owner or any other person, other
than the Depository, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of
redemption, or (C) the payment to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other
person, other than the Depository, of any amount with respect to the principal of or
premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds, or (D) the consent given or other action
taken by the Depository as the Registered Holder of any Bonds (the "Holder"). For
purposes of securing the vote or consent of any Holder under this Resolution, the City
may, however, rely upon an omnibus proxy under which the Depository assigns its
consenting or voting rights to certain Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are
credited on the record date identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.
(iv) The City and the Bond Registrar may treat as and deem the Depository to be the
absolute owner of the Bonds for the purpose of payment of the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, for the purpose of giving notices of
redemption and other matters with respect to the Bonds, for the purpose of obtaining
any consent or other action to be taken by Holders for the purpose of registering
transfers with respect to such Bonds, and for all purpose whatsoever. The Bond
Registrar, as paying agent hereunder, shall pay all principal of and premium, if any,
and interest on the Bonds only to the Holder or the Holders of the Bonds as shown on
the bond register, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and
discharge the City's obligations with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(v) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Bond Registrar of written notice to the effect
that the Depository has determined to substitute a new Nominee in place of the
existing Nominee, and subject to the transfer provisions in paragraph 10, references to
the Nominee hereunder shall refer to such new Nominee.
(vi) So long as any Bond is registered in the name of a Nominee, all payments with respect
to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Bond and all notices with
respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, by the Bond Registrar or
City, as the case may be, to the Depository as provided in the Letter of
Representations to the Depository required by the Depository as a condition to its
acting as book-entry Depository for the Bonds (said Letter of Representations, together
with any replacement thereof or amendment or substitute thereto, including any
standard procedures or policies referenced therein or applicable thereto respecting the
procedures and other matters relating to the Depository's role as book-entry Depository
for the Bonds, collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Letter of Representations").
(vii) All transfers of beneficial ownership interests in each Bond issued in book-entry form
E2
July 14, 2014
City Council Meeting Minutes 15
shall be limited in principal amount to Authorized Denominations and shall be effected
by procedures by the Depository with the Participants for recording and transferring the
ownership of beneficial interests in such Bonds.
(viii) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to the Holders
pursuant to this Resolution by the City or Bond Registrar with respect to any consent or
other action to be taken by Holders, the Depository shall consider the date of receipt of
notice requesting such consent or other action as the record date for such consent or
other action; provided, that the City or the Bond Registrar may establish a special
record date for such consent or other action. The City or the Bond Registrar shall, to
the extent possible, give the Depository notice of such special record date not less than
fifteen calendar days in advance of such special record date to the extent possible.
(ix) Any successor Bond Registrar in its written acceptance of its duties under this
Resolution and any paying agency/bond registrar agreement, shall agree to take any
actions necessary from time to time to comply with the requirements of the Letter of
Representations.
(x) In the case of a partial prepayment of a Bond, the Holder may, in lieu of surrendering
the Bonds for a Bond of a lesser denomination as provided in paragraph 5, make a
notation of the reduction in principal amount on the panel provided on the Bond stating
the amount so redeemed.
(d) Termination of Book-Entry Only System. Discontinuance of a particular Depository's
services and termination of the book-entry only system may be effected as follows:
(i) The Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect to the
Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the City and discharging its
responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. The City may terminate the
services of the Depository with respect to the Bond if it determines that the Depository
is no longer able to carry out its functions as securities depository or the continuation of
the system of book-entry transfers through the Depository is not in the best interests of
the City or the Beneficial Owners.
(ii) Upon termination of the services of the Depository as provided in the preceding
paragraph, and if no substitute securities depository is willing to undertake the
functions of the Depository hereunder can be found which, in the opinion of the City, is
willing and able to assume such functions upon reasonable or customary terms, or if
the City determines that it is in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners of
the Bond that the Beneficial Owners be able to obtain certificates for the Bonds, the
Bonds shall no longer be registered as being registered in the bond register in the
name of the Nominee, but may be registered in whatever name or names the Holder of
the Bonds shall designate at that time, in accordance with paragraph 10. To the extent
that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the transferee by the Holders, in
accordance with paragraph 10, the Bonds will be delivered to the Beneficial Owners.
(iii) Nothing in this subparagraph (d) shall limit or restrict the provisions of paragraph 10.
(e) Letter of Representations. The provisions in the Letter of Representations are
incorporated herein by reference and made a part of the resolution, and if and to the extent any such
provisions are inconsistent with the other provisions of this resolution, the provisions in the Letter of
Representations shall control.

3. Purpose. The Improvement Portion of the Bonds shall provide funds to finance the
Improvements. The Equipment Portion of the Bonds shall provide funds to finance acquisition and
installation of the Equipment. The CIP Portion of the Bonds shall provide funds to finance the CIP
Improvements. The TIF Portion of the Bonds shall provide funds to finance the TIF Project. The
Improvements, the Equipment, the CIP Improvements and the TIF Project are herein referred to
together as the Project. The total cost of the Project, which shall include all costs enumerated in
Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65, is estimated to be at least equal to the amount of the Bonds.
The City covenants that it shall do all things and perform all acts required of it to assure that work on
the Project proceeds with due diligence to completion and that any and all permits and studies
required under law for the Project are obtained.
4. Interest. The Bonds shall bear interest payable semiannually on February 1 and
August 1 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing August 1, 2015, calculated on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, at the respective rates per annum set forth
opposite the maturity years as follows:
Maturity Year Interest Rate Maturity Year Interest Rate
2016 2.00% 2025 3.00%
2017 2.00 2026 3.00
2018 2.00 2027 3.00

2024 4.00
5. Redemption. All Bonds maturing on February 1, 2023 and thereafter, shall be subject
to redemption and prepayment at the option of the City on February 1, 2022, and on any date
thereafter at a price of par plus accrued interest. Redemption may be in whole or in part of the Bonds
subject to prepayment. If redemption is in part, the maturities and the principal amounts within each
maturity to be redeemed shall be determined by the City; and if only part of the Bonds having a
common maturity date are called for prepayment, the specific Bonds to be prepaid shall be chosen by
lot by the Bond Registrar. Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall be due and payable
on the redemption date, and interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after the redemption
date. Mailed notice of redemption shall be given to the paying agent and to each affected registered
holder of the Bonds at least thirty days prior to the date fixed for redemption.
To effect a partial redemption of Bonds having a common maturity date, the Bond Registrar
prior to giving notice of redemption shall assign to each Bond having a common maturity date a
distinctive number for each $5,000 of the principal amount of such Bond. The Bond Registrar shall
then select by lot, using such method of selection as it shall deem proper in its discretion, from the
numbers so assigned to such Bonds, as many numbers as, at $5,000 for each number, shall equal
the principal amount of such Bonds to be redeemed. The Bonds to be redeemed shall be the Bonds
to which were assigned numbers so selected; provided, however, that only so much of the principal
amount of each such Bond of a denomination of more than $5,000 shall be redeemed as shall equal
$5,000 for each number assigned to it and so selected. If a Bond is to be redeemed only in part, it
shall be surrendered to the Bond Registrar (with, if the City or Bond Registrar so requires, a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the City and Bond Registrar duly executed by the Holder
thereof or the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing) and the City shall execute (if necessary)
and the Bond Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Bond, without service

do so unless and until a successor Bond Registrar is duly appointed, all pursuant to any contract the

for purposes of delivering the original Bonds to the Purchaser, the Bond Registrar shall insert as a
date of registration the date of original issue, which date is August 1, 2014. The Certificate of
Authentication so executed on each Bond shall be conclusive evidence that it has been authenticated
and delivered under this resolution.
10. Registration; Transfer; Exchange. The City will cause to be kept at the principal office
of the Bond Registrar a bond register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Bond
Registrar may prescribe, the Bond Registrar shall provide for the registration of Bonds and the

designation.
At the option of the Holder, Bonds may be exchanged for Bonds of any Authorized
Denomination or Denominations of a like aggregate principal amount and stated maturity, upon
surrender of the Bonds to be exchanged at the principal office of the Bond Registrar. Whenever any
Bonds are so surrendered for exchange, the City shall execute (if necessary), and the Bond Registrar
shall authenticate, insert the date of registration of, and deliver the Bonds which the Holder making
the exchange is entitled to receive.

executed by the Holder thereof or the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing.
The Bond Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection with the transfer or exchange of any Bond and any legal

(e) Covenants Relating to the TIF Portion of the Bonds.
Original Net Tax Capacity; Tax Increments; Use of Tax Increments. The County Auditor of
Ramsey County has certified the original net tax capacity of property in the Tax Increment District.
The County Auditor shall determine in each year if the then current net tax capacity of property in the
Tax Increment District exceeds the original net tax capacity, and shall calculate, in the manner
provided in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, Subdivision 3, the captured net tax capacity (as
defined therein) attributable to the Tax Increment District. The City hereby determines to retain 100%
of the captured tax capacity for purposes of tax increment financing. The County Auditor shall, in
each such year, compute the local tax rate to be extended against the captured net tax capacity in the
manner provided in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, Subdivision 3, and the tax generated
thereby shall constitute the Tax Increments for the year in which it is received. The County Auditor
will remit to the City the Tax Increments so received. The City hereby appropriates the Tax
Increments to the TIF Debt Service Subaccount, which appropriation shall continue until all of the TIF
Portion of the Bonds and any additional bonds payable from the TIF Debt Service Subaccount, are
paid or discharged.
Future Tax Levies. In the event that it is anticipated that the aggregate of Tax Increments and
any other funds appropriated to and then held in the TIF Debt Service Subaccount and the estimated
collections of Tax Increments to be received in the next succeeding year will not be sufficient to pay
the principal and interest on the TIF Portion of the Bonds to become due in the first calendar year
thereafter and the first six months of the succeeding calendar year, the City Council shall pass a
resolution requesting the County Auditor of Ramsey County to levy an ad valorem tax in an amount as
is necessary, together with the aforementioned funds then held in the TIF Debt Service Subaccount
and said estimated collections of Tax Increments to pay the principal and interest on the TIF Portion
of the Bonds to become due during said period.
Reservation of Rights. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, the City
E2
July 14, 2014
City Council Meeting Minutes 28
reserves the right to terminate, reduce, or apply to other lawful purposes the Tax Increments herein
pledged to the payment of the TIF Portion of the Bonds and interest thereon to the extent and in the
manner permitted by law.
Coverage Test. The Tax Increments herein pledged for the payment of the TIF Portion of the
Bonds, will produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to meet when due the
principal and interest payments on the TIF Portion of the Bonds.
17. General Obligation Pledge. For the prompt and full payment of the principal and
interest on the Bonds, as the same respectively become due, the full faith, credit and taxing powers of
the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. If the balance in the Debt Service Account is
ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due on the Bonds and any other bonds payable
therefrom, the deficiency shall be promptly paid out of any other funds of the City which are available
for such purpose, and such other funds may be reimbursed with or without interest from the Debt
Service Account when a sufficient balance is available therein.
18. Defeasance. When all Bonds have been discharged as provided in this paragraph, all
pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this resolution to the registered holders of the Bonds
shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The City may discharge its obligations with respect to
any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before
that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full; or if any Bond should not be paid when due,
it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Bond Registrar a sum sufficient for the
payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such deposit. The City may also discharge
its obligations with respect to any prepayable Bonds called for redemption on any date when they are
prepayable according to their terms, by depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a
sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full, provided that notice of redemption thereof has been duly
given. The City may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to
the provisions of law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing
irrevocably in escrow, with a suitable banking institution qualified by law as an escrow agent for this
purpose, cash or securities described in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 8, bearing
interest payable at such times and at such rates and maturing on such dates as shall be required,
without regard to sale and/or reinvestment, to pay all amounts to become due thereon to maturity or, if
notice of redemption as herein required has been duly provided for, to such earlier redemption date.
19. Compliance With Reimbursement Bond Regulations. The provisions of this paragraph
are intended to establish and provide for the City's compliance with United States Treasury
Regulations Section 1.150-2 (the "Reimbursement Regulations") applicable to the "reimbursement
proceeds" of the Bonds, being those portions thereof which will be used by the City to reimburse itself
for any expenditure which the City paid or will have paid prior to the Closing Date (a "Reimbursement
Expenditure").
The City hereby certifies and/or covenants as follows:
(a) Not later than 60 days after the date of payment of a Reimbursement Expenditure, the
City (or person designated to do so on behalf of the City) has made or will have made a written

expectation to reimburse itself for the payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure out of the proceeds
of a subsequent borrowing; (ii) gives a general and functional description of the property, project or
program to which the Declaration relates and for which the Reimbursement Expenditure is paid, or
identifies a specific fund or account of the City and the general functional purpose thereof from which
the Reimbursement Expenditure was to be paid (collectively the "Project"); and (iii) states the
maximum principal amount of debt expected to be issued by the City for the purpose of financing the
Project; provided, however, that no such Declaration shall necessarily have been made with respect
E2

engineering or architectural, surveying and soil testing expenses and similar prefatory costs, which in
the aggregate do not exceed 20% of the "issue price" of the Bonds, and (ii) a de minimis amount of
Reimbursement Expenditures not in excess of the lesser of $100,000 or 5% of the proceeds of the
Bonds.
(b) Each Reimbursement Expenditure is a capital expenditure or a cost of issuance of the
Bonds or any of the other types of expenditures described in Section 1.150-2(d)(3) of the
Reimbursement Regulations.
(c) The "reimbursement allocation" described in the Reimbursement Regulations for each
Reimbursement Expenditure shall and will be made forthwith following (but not prior to) the issuance
of the Bonds and in all events within the period ending on the date which is the later of three years
after payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure or one year after the date on which the Project to
which the Reimbursement Expenditure relates is first placed in service.
(d) Each such reimbursement allocation will be made in a writing that evidences the City's
use of Bond proceeds to reimburse the Reimbursement Expenditure and, if made within 30 days after
the Bonds are issued, shall be treated as made on the day the Bonds are issued.
Provided, however, that the City may take action contrary to any of the foregoing covenants in
this paragraph upon receipt of an opinion of its Bond Counsel for the Bonds stating in effect that such
action will not impair the tax-exempt status of the Bonds.

prepayment, on August 1 in the years and amounts as follows:
Year Amount
2016 $275,000
2017 265,000
2018 250,000
2019 240,000
2020 225,000
As may be requested by the Purchaser, one or more term Bonds may be issued having
mandatory sinking fund redemption and final maturity amounts conforming to the foregoing principal
repayment schedule, and corresponding additions may be made to the provisions of the applicable
Bond(s).
(b) Book Entry Only System. The Depository Trust Company, a limited purpose trust
company organized under the laws of the State of New York or any of its successors or its successors
to its functions hereunder (the "Depository") will act as securities depository for the Bonds, and to this
end:
(i) The Bonds shall be initially issued and, so long as they remain in book entry
form only (the "Book Entry Only Period"), shall at all times be in the form of a separate single
fully registered Bond for each maturity of the Bonds; and for purposes of complying with this
requirement under paragraphs 6 and 11 Authorized Denominations for any Bond shall be
deemed to be limited during the Book Entry Only Period to the outstanding principal amount of
that Bond.
(ii) Upon initial issuance, ownership of the Bonds shall be registered in a bond
register maintained by the Bond Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in the name of CEDE &
CO., as the nominee (it or any nominee of the existing or a successor Depository, the
"Nominee").
(iii) With respect to the Bonds neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall have
any responsibility or obligation to any broker, dealer, bank, or any other financial institution for
which the Depository holds Bonds as securities depository (the "Participant") or the person for
which a Participant holds an interest in the Bonds shown on the books and records of the
Participant (the "Beneficial Owner"). Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence,
neither the City, nor the Bond Registrar, shall have any such responsibility or obligation with
respect to (A) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, the Nominee or any Participant
with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, or (B) the delivery to any Participant, any
E2
July 14, 2014
City Council Meeting Minutes 33
Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any notice with respect to the Bonds,
including any notice of redemption, or (C) the payment to any Participant, any Beneficial
Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any amount with respect to the
principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds, or (D) the consent given or other
action taken by the Depository as the Registered Holder of any Bonds (the "Holder"). For
purposes of securing the vote or consent of any Holder under this Resolution, the City may,
however, rely upon an omnibus proxy under which the Depository assigns its consenting or
voting rights to certain Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the record
date identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.
(iv) The City and the Bond Registrar may treat as and deem the Depository to be
the absolute owner of the Bonds for the purpose of payment of the principal of and premium, if
any, and interest on the Bonds, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other
matters with respect to the Bonds, for the purpose of obtaining any consent or other action to
be taken by Holders for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Bonds, and
for all purpose whatsoever. The Bond Registrar, as paying agent hereunder, shall pay all
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to the Holder or the Holders of
the Bonds as shown on the bond register, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to
fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations with respect to the principal of and premium, if
any, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(v) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Bond Registrar of written notice to the
effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new Nominee in place of the existing
Nominee, and subject to the transfer provisions in paragraph 11, references to the Nominee
hereunder shall refer to such new Nominee.
(vi) So long as any Bond is registered in the name of a Nominee, all payments with
respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Bond and all notices with
respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, by the Bond Registrar or City, as
the case may be, to the Depository as provided in the Letter of Representations to the
Depository required by the Depository as a condition to its acting as book-entry Depository for
the Bonds (said Letter of Representations, together with any replacement thereof or
amendment or substitute thereto, including any standard procedures or policies referenced
therein or applicable thereto respecting the procedures and other matters relating to the
Depository's role as book-entry Depository for the Bonds, collectively hereinafter referred to as
the "Letter of Representations").
(vii) All transfers of beneficial ownership interests in each Bond issued in book-entry
form shall be limited in principal amount to Authorized Denominations and shall be effected by
procedures by the Depository with the Participants for recording and transferring the
ownership of beneficial interests in such Bonds.
(viii) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to the
Holders pursuant to this Resolution by the City or Bond Registrar with respect to any consent
or other action to be taken by Holders, the Depository shall consider the date of receipt of
notice requesting such consent or other action as the record date for such consent or other
action; provided, that the City or the Bond Registrar may establish a special record date for
such consent or other action. The City or the Bond Registrar shall, to the extent possible, give
the Depository notice of such special record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of
such special record date to the extent possible.
E2

City Council Meeting Minutes 34
(ix) Any successor Bond Registrar in its written acceptance of its duties under this
Resolution and any paying agency/bond registrar agreement, shall agree to take any actions
necessary from time to time to comply with the requirements of the Letter of Representations.
(x) In the case of a partial prepayment of a Bond, the Holder may, in lieu of
surrendering the Bonds for a Bond of a lesser denomination as provided in paragraph 6
hereof, make a notation of the reduction in principal amount on the panel provided on the
Bond stating the amount so redeemed.
(c) Termination of Book-Entry Only System. Discontinuance of a particular Depository's
services and termination of the book-entry only system may be effected as follows:
(i) The Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect
to the Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the City and discharging its responsibilities
with respect thereto under applicable law. The City may terminate the services of the
Depository with respect to the Bond if it determines that the Depository is no longer able to
carry out its functions as securities depository or the continuation of the system of book-entry
transfers through the Depository is not in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial
Owners.
(ii) Upon termination of the services of the Depository as provided in the preceding
paragraph, and if no substitute securities depository is willing to undertake the functions of the
Depository hereunder can be found which, in the opinion of the City, is willing and able to
assume such functions upon reasonable or customary terms, or if the City determines that it is
in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners of the Bond that the Beneficial
Owners be able to obtain certificates for the Bonds, the Bonds shall no longer be registered as
being registered in the bond register in the name of the Nominee, but may be registered in
whatever name or names the Holder of the Bonds shall designate at that time, in accordance
with paragraph 11. To the extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the transferee
by the Holders, in accordance with paragraph 11, the Bonds will be delivered to the Beneficial
Owners.
(iii) Nothing in this subparagraph (c) shall limit or restrict the provisions of
paragraph 11.
(d) Letter of Representations. The provisions in the Letter of Representations are
incorporated herein by reference and made a part of the resolution, and if and to the extent any such
provisions are inconsistent with the other provisions of this resolution, the provisions in the Letter of
Representations shall control.
3. Purpose; Refunding Findings. The Bonds shall provide funds for a crossover advance
refunding of the Refunded Bonds (the "Refunding"). It is hereby found, determined and declared that
the Refunding is pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67. As of the Crossover Date there
shall result a reduction in the present value of the dollar amount of the debt service to the City from a
total dollar amount of $2,664,296.26 for the Prior Bonds to a total dollar amount of $1,803,777.50 for
the Bonds computed in accordance with the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67,
Subdivision 12. The dollar amount of such present value of the debt service for the Bonds is lower by
at least three percent than the dollar amount of such present value of the debt service for the Prior
Bonds as required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 12.
4. Interest. The Bonds shall bear interest payable semiannually on February 1 and August
1 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing August 1, 2015, calculated on the
E2

basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, at the respective rates per annum set forth opposite
the maturity years as follows:

2016 1.50%
2017 1.50
2018 1.50
2019 2.00
2020 2.00
5. No Redemption. The Bonds shall not be subject to redemption and prepayment prior to
their stated maturity date.
6. Bond Registrar. U.S. Bank National Association, in St. Paul, Minnesota, is appointed to
act as bond registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Bonds (the "Bond Registrar"), and shall do
so unless and until a successor Bond Registrar is duly appointed, all pursuant to any contract the City
and Bond Registrar shall execute which is consistent herewith. The Bond Registrar shall also serve
as paying agent unless and until a successor paying agent is duly appointed. Principal and interest
on the Bonds shall be paid to the registered holders (or record holders) of the Bonds in the manner
set forth in the form of Bond and paragraph 13.

such Interest Payment Date (the "Regular Record Date"). Any such interest not so timely paid shall
cease to be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof as of the Regular Record Date, and shall

defaulted interest. Notice of the Special Record Date shall be given by the Bond Registrar to the

"General Obligation Tax Abatement Refunding Bonds, Series 2014B Fund" (the "Fund") to be
administered and maintained by the Finance Director as a bookkeeping account separate and apart
from all other funds maintained in the official financial records of the City. In such records there shall
be established accounts or accounts shall continue to be maintained as the case may be, of the Fund
for the purposes and in the amounts as follows:
(a) Escrow Account. The Escrow Account is established for the Refunded Bonds and
shall be maintained as an escrow account with U.S. Bank National Association (the "Escrow Agent"),
in St. Paul, Minnesota, which is a suitable financial institution within or without the State.
$1,944,462.32 in proceeds of the sale of the Bonds shall be received by the Escrow Agent and
applied to fund the Escrow Account or to pay costs of issuing the Bonds. $0 in proceeds of the sale of
the Bonds shall be received by the Escrow Agent to pay costs of issuing the Bonds. Proceeds of the
Bonds not used to pay costs of issuance or any Bond proceeds returned to the City are hereby
irrevocably pledged and appropriated to the Escrow Account, together with all investment earnings
thereon. The Escrow Account shall be invested in securities maturing or callable at the option of the
holder on such dates and bearing interest at such rates as shall be required to provide sufficient
funds, together with any cash or other funds retained in the Escrow Account, (i) to pay when due the
interest to accrue on the Bonds to and including the Crossover Date; and (ii) to pay when called for
redemption on the Crossover Date, the principal amount of the Refunded Bonds. The Escrow
Account shall be irrevocably appropriated to the payment of (i) all interest on the Bonds to and
including the Crossover Date, and (ii) the principal of the Refunded Bonds due by reason of their call
for redemption on the Crossover Date. The moneys in the Escrow Account shall be used solely for
the purposes herein set forth and for no other purpose, except that any surplus in the Escrow Account
may be remitted to the City, all in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, by and between the City
and Escrow Agent (the "Escrow Agreement"), a form of which is on file in the office of the Finance
Director. Any moneys remitted to the City upon termination of the Escrow Agreement shall be
deposited in the Debt Service Account.
(b) Debt Service Account. To the Debt Service Account there is hereby pledged and
irrevocably appropriated and there shall be credited: (1) after the Crossover Date, all uncollected tax
abatements pledged to the payment of the Prior Bonds; (2) any accrued interest received upon
delivery of the Bonds; (4) any collections of all taxes heretofore or hereafter levied for the payment of
the Prior Bonds and interest thereon which are not needed to pay the Prior Bonds as a result of the
Crossover Refunding; (5) all investment earnings on funds in the Debt Service Account; and (6) any
balance remitted to the City upon the termination of the Escrow Agreement; (7) any and all other
moneys which are properly available and are appropriated by the governing body of the City to the
Debt Service Account. The amount of any surplus remaining in the Debt Service Account when the
Bonds and interest thereon are paid shall be used consistent with Minnesota Statutes, Section
E2
July 14, 2014
City Council Meeting Minutes 41
475.61, Subdivision 4. The moneys in the Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the
principal of and interest on the Bonds or any other bonds hereafter issued and made payable from the
Fund.
The moneys in the Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the principal of and
interest on the Bonds or any other bonds hereafter issued and made payable from the Fund. No
portion of the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding
investments or to replace funds which were used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding
investments, except (1) for a reasonable temporary period until such proceeds are needed for the
purpose for which the Bonds were issued, and (2) in addition to the above, in an amount not greater
than the lesser of five percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or $100,000. To this effect, any proceeds
of the Bonds and any sums from time to time held in the Fund (or any other City account which will be
used to pay principal and interest to become due on the Bonds) in excess of amounts which under the
applicable federal arbitrage regulations may be invested without regard as to yield shall not be
invested in excess of the applicable yield restrictions imposed by the arbitrage regulations on such
investments after taking into account any applicable "temporary periods" or "minor portion" made
available under the federal arbitrage regulations. In addition, the proceeds of the Bonds and money in
the Fund shall not be invested in obligations or deposits issued by, guaranteed by or insured by the
United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof if and to the extent that such investment would
cause the Bonds to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the federal
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
16. Tax Abatements; Use of Tax Abatements. As provided in clause D hereof, the Council
has adopted the Abatement Resolution and has thereby approved the Tax Abatements, including the
pledge thereof to the payment of the Bonds. As provided in the Abatement Resolution, the estimated
total amount of the Tax Abatements is equal to the principal amount of the Bonds and does not
exceed the maximum projected amount of the Tax Abatements. The Council hereby confirms the
Abatement Resolution, which is hereby incorporated as though set forth herein.
17. Tax Levy; Coverage Test; Cancellation of Certain Tax Levies. To provide moneys,
together with the Tax Abatements, for payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds, there is
hereby levied upon all of the taxable property in the City a direct annual ad valorem tax which shall be
spread upon the tax rolls and collected with and as part of other general property taxes in the City for
the years and in the amounts as follows:
Years of Tax Levy Years of Tax Collection Amounts
See attached schedule
The tax levies are such that if collected in full they, together with estimated collections of Tax
Abatements will produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to meet when due the
principal and interest payments on the Bonds. The tax levies shall be irrepealable so long as any of
the Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, provided that the City reserves the right and power to reduce
the levies in the manner and to the extent permitted by Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61,
Subdivision 3.
Upon payment of the Bonds, the uncollected taxes levied in the Prior Resolution authorizing
the issuance of the Prior Bonds which are not needed to pay the Prior Bonds as a result of the
Refunding shall be canceled.
(a) General Obligation Pledge. For the prompt and full payment of the principal and
interest on the Bonds, as the same respectively become due, the full faith, credit and taxing powers of
the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. If the balance in the Debt Service Account is

Councilmember Abrams moved to approve the staff recommendation with minor amendment
of only permitting 7 cars out in front of the property at one time.
A. Approve the conditional use permit resolution to allow used-car sales at 1081 Highway 36.
Approval is based on the findings required by ordinance and subject to the following
conditions:
1. All construction shall follow the plans date-stamped June 11, 2014, approved by the
city. Staff may approve minor changes.
2. The proposed use must be substantially started within one year of council approval or
the permit shall become null and void. The council may extend this deadline for one
year after review and good-cause is shown.
3. The city council shall review this permit in one year.
4. This permit requires that cars for sale be kept indoors as proposed.
5. Any signs shall be installed in accordance with the Maplewood Sign Ordinance.
6. The applicant shall pave the area behind the building to eliminate the graveled parking
and driveway surfaces. The property owner shall also do the same in the area behind
Hirschfield’s at the same time to clean up the site.
7. The permitted hours of retail operation shall be Monday through Thursday 9 a.m. to 8
p.m. and Friday and Saturday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
8. Test drives shall be limited to the frontage road with drives through the residential
neighborhood strongly discouraged.
9. Vehicle deliveries and transport unloading shall be done on site and not along public
streets.
B. Approve of the variance resolution for the proposed Whitaker used car sales business to
be less than 350 feet from a residential district. The proposed use would be 190 feet
away. This variance approval is based on the following findings:
1. The proposed variance would be in harmony with the intent of the ordinance. With a
350 foot separation from a residential property, the code attempts to buffer auto sales
activities from residents. In this case, there would be no outdoor car sales or displays,
to eliminate any neighborhood impact.
2. The use would be consistent with the comprehensive plan since it is classified
commercial and auto sales are a commercial activity.
3. There are practical difficulties in complying with the ordinance. The existing building is
closer than 350 feet to the nearest residentially zoned property. This proximity is
nothing the applicant can control. This “practical difficulty” is being addressed by the
applicant by operating his used car sales business inside the building. Other than test
drives, there would be no impact on the neighborhood. The residential district to the

property.

City Council Meeting Minutes 54
WHEREAS, the history of this variance is as follows:
1. The planning commission held a public hearing on July 1, 2014. City staff published a
notice in the Maplewood Review and sent notices to the surrounding property owners as
required by law. The planning commission gave everyone at the hearing an opportunity to
speak and present written statements. The council also considered reports and
recommendations from the city staff. The planning commission recommended that the city
council approve this variance.
2. On July 14, 2014, the city council considered the recommendations of city staff and the
planning commission and the testimony of persons present at the meeting.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the city council approve the above-described
variances since:
1. The proposed variance would be in harmony with the intent of the ordinance. With a 350
foot separation from a residential property, the code attempts to buffer auto sales activities
from residents. In this case, there would be no outdoor car sales or displays, to eliminate
any neighborhood impact.
2. The use would be consistent with the comprehensive plan since it is classified commercial
and auto sales are a commercial activity.
3. There are practical difficulties in complying with the ordinance. The existing building is
closer than 350 feet to the nearest residentially zoned property. This proximity is nothing
the applicant can control. This “practical difficulty” is being addressed by the applicant by
operating his used car sales business inside the building. Other than test drives, there
would be no impact on the neighborhood. The residential district to the north, furthermore,
is almost fully screened by mature trees from this commercial property.
The Maplewood City Council approved this resolution on July 14, 2014.
