<br />y <br /> <br />CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br />Topic Report: Anoka County Economic <br />Development Authority <br /> <br /> <br />By: Sean M. Sullivan, Economic Development <br />Coordinator <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Karen Skepper from Anoka County will make a presentation detailing the purpose of the <br />Anoka County Housing and Redevelopment Authority (ACHRA). The ACHRA will <br />utilize a regional development concept that is planned to give Anoka County a focused <br />approach on development within the county by expanding its powers to include the <br />authority of an Economic Development Authority. Projects that have a regional <br />significance will be the focus of the ACHRA. Attached is a sample resolution to opt in to <br />this voluntary program. If the City were to participate in this program it would be a tax <br />increase for Ramsey businesses and residents and the increase would be on the Anoka <br />County portion of the tax statement. A copy of the study conducted by Springsted for <br />Anoka County to determine the need for this program is available upon request. <br /> <br />Action Statement: <br /> <br />Based on discussion <br /> <br />CCWS: 07/31/2007 <br />
