CONTRACT BETWEEN THE - ROSEMOUNT PORT AUTHORITY AND I ENDRES PROPERI'IES,L.L.G �I (Revised 4/4/97) ', This contract legally binds the Port and Endres to complete specific actions as part of the proposed �� development project within a tax increment financing district. The main highlights are identified as follows: 1. Taa Increments. This is the source of public financing assistance for development project after the Port Authority has contributed 10% of the annual increment amount from other sources. 2. Site Improvement Costs. Section 3.2 now defines eligible site improvements(for purposes of tax increment payments) as"grading and excavation; paving, curb and gutter; and on-site water and sewer." Each of these three categories also now include corresponding estimated costs. 3. Reimbursement. Tax increments are proposed to reimburse the owner for site improvement costs that are verified within a contract and certified by an architect or engineer. In addition, the contract identifies $60,000 for land acquisition write-down. 4. Financing Structure. Section 3.5 specifies that total reimbursement costs sha11 not exceed $385,000 with an additional 6.0%interest. Interest will start accruing on the date when all site improvement costs have been verified by the Port Authority. Payments will be made to Endres semi-annually each August 1 and February 1, starting with August 1, 1999 and ending no later than February l, 2008. 5. Local Contribution. Section 3.S.a. specifies that each semi-annual payment will include 10% of the total tax increment received during the previous 6-months from unrestricted local resources, such as the Port Authority's general budget (excluding any tax increment sources.) 6. Financing Risk. Section 3.S.d. specifies that the Port Authority makes no representation or covenant that tax increments will be sufficient to pay the total amount due and payable to Endres ($385,000 plus interest). In addition, the Port Authority may prepay costs and accrued interest at any time. 7. Job and Wage Covenants. Section 3.8 now defines the wage covenant from Endres to include 3 new jobs at a minimum wage of$10.50/hr. within two years of receiving financial assistance. However, since that date is estimated to be August of 1999, staff will interpret the start date to be the date of executing the contract. This section also now recognizes the 7 jobs that were created within the past six months related to the project. 8. Construction. Section 4 specifies that the project must meet all applicable local, state and federal codes, and it must be completed by December 31, I997 with verification frorn the Port Authority in the form of a Certificate of Completion. 9. Fire Calls. Section 4.5 specifies that Endres must pay to the Port Authority actual costs for any _ fire calls in excess of two in a calendar year during the life of the TIF District. 10. Events of Default. Section 9 identifies events that trigger default of the contract, which relate to the failure of Endres to observe or perform conditions of all sections within the contrac�t. Remedies are standard, including notification followed by optional actions of the Port Authority. ��::;�i��E ��:::��:;�:1;�� CONTRACT FOR PRIVATE REDEVELOPMENT By and Between ROSEMOUNT PORT AUTHORITY and ENDRES PROPERTIES, L.L.C.

Metropolitan Council Working for the Region, P(anning for the Future April 2, 1997 Mr. Dan Rogness Community Development Director City of Rosemount 2875 145th Streei W. P.O. Box�10 Rosemount, MN »068-0510 RE: Plan Amendment-Land Use Designation Change from Agricultural to General Industrial Y1eisJpolit,^..*+�'�uncil Dist�ict 15 Metropolitan Council Referral No. 16449-2 Dear Mr. Rogness: The Metropolitan Council staffhas reviewed the city's plan amendment originally received by the Council on February 7, 1997. The amendment involves a land use change on a�4 acre paxcel from a�>ricultural to general industrial. We have deternuned that the proposed amendment has no potential impact upon any of the metropolitan system plans. Because the proposed amendment appeazs unlikely to affect policies and plans in other chapters of the Metropolitan Development Guide and Regional Growth Straxegy,the Council will waive further review and comment on this amendment. ADVISORY COMMENTS Transportaxion: Our transportation staff advises the city that because the site is located adjacent to state TH>j, a principal arterial, access to TH 55 from the site should be consistent with the regional Transportation Development Guide/Policy Plan's standards for principal arterials. According to the policy plan,non-freeway principal arterials should have access limited to 1/2 mile spacing,with 1-2 miles desires. However, it is our understanding that MnDOT may be willing to consider a single direct access to TH�5 (subject to conditions)because the site's topography may make access to Pine Bend Trail unfeasible. MNRRA/Critical Area: Because the proposed site is wholly within the critical area corridor,the city is advised that although the Council is waiving further review and comment,the proposed plan amendment is subject to approval by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR). The DNR will ha.ve 45 days from receipt of Council recommendations to either approve the plan amendment or request addirional information. The Council encourages the city to update its Critical Area plan and ordinances to ensure that they address all Critical Area requirements and other voluntary MNRRA plan standards. The proposed plan amendment appears generally consistent with the Critical Area Urban Diversified District which allows industrial use, and with the Rosemount Critical Area Plan which designated this area for industrial use, provided that other Critical Area management goals are met. The amendment materials indicate that the area will be developed in accordance with Critical Corridor standa.rds and applicable local ordinances. Therefore, the Council will recommend to the DNR approval of the requested plan amendment. 230 East FIRh Street St. Paul.Minnesota 55101-1634 1612)291-6359 F.L�c 291-6550 TDD/'1'[Y 291-0904 Metro In(o Line 228-3780 An£.yuul Upp(xtunity Employer . x Page 2 Apri12, 1997 The amendmern,�planatory materials supplied,and the information submission form will be appended to the city's plan in the Council's files.
