City of Ramsey, Minnesota <br />a. The City's estimate of the amount by which the market value of the site will increase without <br />the use of tax increment financing is anywhere from $0 to some modest amount based on small scale <br />development that could be possible without assistance; any estimated values would be too speculative <br />to ascertain. <br />b. If the proposed development to be assisted with tax increment occurs in the District, the total <br />increase in market value would be approximately $591,723,309, including the value of the building (See <br />Exhibit III). Prior to the inclusion of a 2% market value inflator starting in 2018. <br />C. The present value of tax increments from the District for the maximum duration of the district <br />permitted by the TIF Plan is estimated to be $68,943,022 (See Exhibit VI) <br />d. Even if some development other than the proposed development were to occur, the Council <br />finds that no alternative would occur that would produce a market value increase greater than <br />$522,780,287 (the amount in clause b less the amount in clause c) without tax increment assistance. <br />(3) The TIF Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the City as a <br />whole, for development of the Project Area by private enterprise. <br />Factual basis: The anticipated development projected by the City may include the development of 69 acres for <br />retail development, 10 acres for mixed -use development, 15 acres for commercial /business development, and 16 <br />acres for housing development; in addition to the substantial private development which is projected to occur in <br />the District. The mixed -use, transit - oriented development clearly meets the economic development goals of the <br />City. <br />(4) The TIF Plan conforms to general plans for development of the City as a whole. <br />Factual basis: The City Planning Commission has determined that the development proposed in the TIF Plan <br />conforms to the City comprehensive plan. <br />(5) The City does not elect the method of tax increment computation set forth in Minnesota Statutes, <br />Section 469.177, Subdivision 3(b); therefore subdivision 3(a) shall apply which indicates the original <br />net tax capacity and the current net tax capacity shall be determined before the application of the <br />fiscal disparity provisions (see method (a) in Section P). <br />Section K Estimated Public Costs <br />The estimated public costs of the TIF District are listed below.
