CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS NAC FILE: Client Project Job No May 17, 1993 RECEIVEO MAY 18 1993 To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights 14168 North 57th Street Stillwater, MN 55082 RE: ST. CROIX MALL - REVISED TIF PROJECTIONS - 1992/1993 Attached herewith are the following schedules projecting the TIF calculations and Developer assistance for the St. Croix Mall - TIF Agreement based upon current (1993) data: • Computations of total tax allocations (county basis) including City TIF monies based upon an $8,410,300 final project value and based upon zero inflationary growth of taxable valuations. • Computations of developer assistance (i.e. allocation of TIF. tax revenue between the developer and the City) based upon an $8,410,300 final project value and based upon zero inflationary rg owth of taxable valuations. The attached TIF computations for 1992/1993 again reflect a reduction from prior projections. This years reductions is (again) the direct result of State changes to the tax capacity ratio for industrial/commercial property. The 1991 /92 ratio was 4.75 %. The 1992/93 ratio is 4.70% representing another 3% decrease. TIF property taxes total $242,443 for 1992/93 and will be "shared" as follows: Allocation Amount Percent "Lost TIF" $62,993 26.0% Developer (60 %) 107,670 44.4% City (40 %) 71,780 29.6% TOTAL $242,443 100.0% 4810 White Bear Parkway • White Bear Lake, Minnesota 55110 • 612/426 -7000 • FAX /426 -5004 • Member of HLB International To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights May 17, 1993 Page 2 When the City Council approved this TIF Agreement in 1989, it was anticipated that payments to the Developer would total $960,000 over seven and one -half years and that the City would retain approximately $755,000 over eight years to be used to finance other City projects. Since that time, numerous changes have occurred such that current projections anticipate total payments to the Developer of approximately $688,600 and City TIF revenue of approximately $459,900. The reduced amounts are the direct result of the following: 1. The economic adjustment factor for the TIF District was originally estimated at 1.91% per year based upon preliminary estimates by the Developer and County. The actual economic adjustment factor for this TIF District is 5.7858 %. Accordingly, more tax base is being retained for regular taxes instead of incremental taxes. 2. The original estimates anticipated annual inflationary increases of 2% after completion of the incremental construction. Current economic conditions are such that the attached projections reflect zero inflationary growth. 3. Each year since 1988/89, the State has reduced the tax capacity ratios for industrial/commercial property as follows: TOTAL Comm./Indust. Class Ratios: 1988/89 1989/90 1990/91 1991/92 1992/93 CHANGE First $100,000 3.30% 3.30% 3.20% 3.10% 3.00% - 0.30% Balance 5.25% 5.06% 4.95% 4.75% 4.70% - 0.55% Percent Change: First $100,000 0.0% -3.0% -3.1% 3.2% -9.1% Balance -3.6% -2.2% -4.0% 1.1% - 10.5% Current TIF projections have been reduced substantially from the original estimates for both the Developer and the City and are summarized as follows: Year Developer City 1991 - Actual $30,908 $21,414 1992 - Actual 114,513 76,342 1993 - Actual 107,670 71,780 1994 -Est. 101,326 67,550 1995 -Est. 94,614 63,076 1996 -Est. 87,514 58,343 1997 -Est. 80,003 53,335 1998 -Est. 72,058 48,038 TOTALS $688,606 $459,878 To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights May 17, 1993 Page 3 CITY TIF COMMITMENTS In conjunction with the developer project, the City partially committed its TIF revenue to finance a street re- alignment project at 58th Street and Osgood Avenue. The primary purpose of this project was to improve traffic flows and patterns. A summary of construction costs at December 31, 1992 plus estimated final costs is as follows: Construction Costs Description @ 12/31/92 Contractor $114,705 Engineering 25,241 Other 10,132 Total $150,078 The City's financing plan for this project calls for 100% City TIF financing. Accordingly, the City has already committed its 1991 through 1993 TIF revenues to this project. Thereafter, the City can expect to have the following amounts available to finance other City TIF projects: Year Amount Accumulative 1994 $67,500 $67,500 1995 63,100 130,600 1996 58,300 188,900 1997 53,500 242,200 1998 48,000 290,200 As shown above, future City TIF revenue will not be available until 1994. Additionally, these amounts are limited -- averaging only approximately $58,000 per year for five years. The City Council has discussed the use of the above TIF revenue to help finance Phase I of the City's Street Reconstruction Program. To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights May 17, 1993 Page 4 LOST TIF The TIF portion (50% for 1992/93) of the development property pays taxes at the same rate (1.24337 %) as any other commercial property. This full amount, however, ja not available for the benefit of the City's TIF District. The 1988 /89 tax rate on this property was .92031 %. The TIF District's portion of TIF tax revenue is limited to the .92031% tax rate. All amounts above the 1988 /89 tax rate are considered to be "excess" and are remitted to the City, county and local school district based upon state statutes. The following schedule summarizes such amounts: School Year City County District Total 1991- Actual $2,473 $2,519 $3,396 $8,388 1992 - Actual 10,472 13,170 16,860 40,502 1993 - Actual 15,037 14,357 33,599 62,993 1994 - Est. 14,151 13,511 31,619 59,281 1995 - Est. 13,214 12,616 29,524 55,354 1996 - Est. 12,222 11,669 27,309 51,200 1997 - Est. 11,173 10,668 24,965 46,806 1998 - Est. 10,064 9,608 22,486 42,158 Totals $88,806 $88,118 $189,758 $366,682 The above estimates for 1994 through 1998 are based upon future tax rates equal exactly to the 1992/93 tax rates. Accordingly, the above estimates are probably conservatively low. The City Council has discussed the use of its portion of the "excess" TIF revenue to help finance Phase I of the City's Street Reconstruction Program. To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights May 17, 1993 Page 5 DEVELOPER IM The City's final commitment to the Developer of this project generally called for the Developer to receive 60% of the additional or incremental taxes generated by this project with a maximum amount of $960,000 to be paid over the term of this TIF District. Tax Increment Financing has been the subject of various State Statute changes over the past several years, most of which has limited TIF revenue and/or uses of TIF revenue (especially additional or excess TIF revenue). The City's Agreement with the Developer calls for the City to remit Developer TIF revenues within 30 days of the actual receipt of such monies. The City will be receiving these monies (both Developer TIF and City TIF) as part of its normal tax settlement each June and December. However, the City usually does not receive the detailed allocations (of its overall tax settlement) until sometime after the monies are received. Accordingly, it may not be possible for the City to remit these monies within 30 days of receipt. We recommend that the City remit such monies as soon as possible after receipt of all required information. The attached schedules include projected computations of Developer TIF for the full term of this TIF District, including actual computations for 1991, 1992, and 1993. Assuming full and prompt payment of the 1993 property tax by the Developer, the City should receive TIF tax settlements of $89,725 (each) in June and December. When this occurs, the City should remit $53,835 (or 60% of each amount) to the Developer. We will be available to discuss this report and other matters with the City Council at a later date.
