On Saturday, April 15, 1989, a meeting has been scheduled for 8:30 a.m. at the Normandy Hotel, Minneapolis for mayors and city council members whose communities are adversely affected by the proposed legislation. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss a legislative action plan to defeat S.F. 891.

No. 891 ANALYSTS F LY QIEMERMAN FRANK This bill introduced by Senator Ember Reichgott, RANK NK F DAVID GIEL :, modifies the fiscal disparities law in GREGORY C KNOPFF several ways. ELAINE M MANGE PATRICK „ MC CORMACK MARK MISUKANIS Section 1 removes a reference In the purpose section -ACK PAULSON of the fiscal disparities law that refers to the municipal _L_Hrz S SEAN v SON equity account, which is abolished under this bill. The _ MA„ANEICMANN municipal equity account was a feature of the original fiscal disparities law that provided a mechanism for distributing money to local units of government. It was never implemented. This section also requires use of the proceeds of the area -wide tax for normal tax expenditure purposes. Section 2 provides that, if any debt is incurred in connection with a pre -1979 tax increment district after 1989, any increase in tax base after 1989 would be included in the definitions of "commercial- industrial property" used to determine the contribution. This section also strikes a reference to an obsolete exemption relating to a sinking fund for the City of St. Paul, and provides that vacant land is not included in the definition of commercial - industrial property. Section 3 adds personal property to the market value definition, thereby adding utility property as well as manufactured homes to the distribution value. Section 4 eliminates the exemption for the City of South St. Paul, establishing 1988 as the base year for the city and phasing out the city's exemption by five percent per year over a 20 -year period. Section 5 requires adjustment of commercial - industrial values by the median commercial - industrial sales ratio of the municipality. If the municipality's sales ratio is greater than 90 percent, the ratio used will be 90 percent. If it is less than 90 percent, three percent will be added each year to the actual median commercial - industrial sales ratio until it reaches 90 percent. This section also phases out the exemption for pre -1971 commercial- industrial values over a period of 20 years, reducing that exemption by five percent per year. -' The current 40 percent contribution rate is also reduced by two percent per year until it reaches 30 percent. Section 6 elimina --s the factor of two and the minimum population provision r_ 7, the distribution formula. Sections 7 and 8 change references to the contribu- tion percentage from 40 percent to the new phased -in percentages. Section 9 eliminates a reference used in relation to the municipal equity account. Section 10 repeals municipal equity account provisions. Section 11 provides that this act applies to the -' seven- county metropolitan area. Section 12 provides that the bill is effective for .. taxes payable in 1990 and subsequent years. JZS:ld -2- r Explanation of Table In an effort to better understand the economic impact on cities, townships and legislative districts, of implementing the AMM proposal the following tables have been created using figures supplied by the City of Minneapolis. -- The table illustrates the impact of the AMM proposal in 1990, 1992 and 1994. The first column under the heading "Current Law" is the amount cities or townships presently contribute or receive. The second column headed by "AMM Proposal" is the amount they would receive or contribute if the AMM proposal is adopted. The third column under the heading of "Loss /Gain" lists the amount a city or township would lose or gain as a result of implementing the AMM proposal versus retaining the existing law. The total amount that each legislative district would lose or gain under the AMM proposal compared to the current law is listed at the bottom of the "Loss /Gain" column. In some instances, a city or township contributes under both the current law and the AMM proposal. If a municipality contributes less under the AMM proposal than it would under the existing law, this is considered a gain. Conversely, even if a municipality ultimately gains revenue, if that municipality receives less under the AMM proposal than under existing law, it is considered a loss.
