Item No. ~ City of Lakeville Community and Economic Development Memorandum To: Economic Development Commission From: David L. Olson,: Community & Economic Development Director'" _ Copy: Steven Mielke, City Administrator Adam IGenberger, Economic Development Specialist Date: January 20, 2006 Su6jecta 2006 Work Program for 2005-2007 Strategic Plan for Economic Development The City Council approved the EDC recommended 2005-2007 Strategic Plan in ` December of-2004. An Executive Summary of the approved Strategic Plan is attached for your reference.. The following 2005-2007 Strategic Plan goals were included in my departmental Work Program for 2005: 1. Coordinate preparation of a Downtown Plan. Z. .Implementation of a processto facilitate development of East-West Corridors. 3. Completion of a study. to determine the minimum market value of a residential housing unit that generates sufficient City taxes to pay for the City services required by that unit. 4. Facilitate a process to establish affordable housing goals for the City.. Significant. progress has been made in the preparation of the Downtown Plan. and EDC members were given an update on the status of his project by the City's consultant at a joint work. session with City Council and Planning Commission .held on January` 17"'. As was indicated at this joint work session, this project is scheduled to be completed by June of this year. There has also been progress on Goal #2 to facilitate development of East-West Corridors.- This primarily consisted of the completiori of Phase II of the. Dakota. County fast-West Corridor Preservation Study. The City was an active participant in this Phase 2 Study that involved the refinement of the 179"' Street and 185"' Street corridors in the Lakeville portion of the study. City staff is actively working with both private developers and Dakota .County to plan for the construction of these East-West Corridor extensions. The implementation of the actual construction of these corridors will be an ongoing effort over the next five years or possibly longer. Goals #3 and #4 were not actively pursued in 2005 primarily because of budgetary and staffing limitations. Since then, both of these limitations have been addressed and. these goals should be considered for inclusion in the 2006 Work Program. Other goals included in my departmental 2005 Work Program include continued involvement in reviewing the final design and completion of ofFcial mapping for the Co. Rd. 70 / I-35 Interchange improvements. Also included in my departmen~l 2005. Work Program is the completion of the remaining right-of-way acquisition settlements and coordination with the businesses for the remaining construction on the Co. Rd. 50 Interim Improvement project. Both of these projects are also ~ included in the Strategic Plan and are ongoing projects that carry over from last year and thus are not new initiatives. Progress on these two goals included working with the County and MnDOT to nearly finalize the proposed layout for the interchange design and to secure an additional $5 million in State funding for the project. In terms of the Co. Rd. 50 project, construction was completed in 2005 and of the 39 necessary right-of-way acquisitions there are only a few that remain to be settled. The City Administrator's office took the lead in 2005 to pursue various transit options and explore further the issues associated with transit services in Lakeville. Progress on this issue has included the funding and approval of extended bARTS bus service to Lakeville. This involved the EDC and Economic Development staff to comeyup with a plan to fund this extended service with CDBG funds. The Community and Economic Development Department coordinated the process to apply for and obtain approval of $1..45 million in Met Council RALF funds to acquire a park and pool site and future park and ride site near the Co. Rd. 70/I-35 Interchange.. A tentative. agreement .has recently. been :reached with the property owner for this acquisition. In addition to Goals #3 and #4 from 2005 being included in the 2006, there are several other goals that have been. identified for possible consideration for the 2006 Work Program. Included in this would be the possible re-convening of the High-Tech Subcommittee to survey existing businesses as to whether their data transmission. .needs are currently being met through the current local providers. It has been three years since this issue was discussed and the needs and available technologies continue to change. Several cities in the Metro area are studying the feasibility of providing wireless data. transmission services and there are also discussions taking place in several area cities about the possibility of cities installing fiberinfrastructure that would be made available to providers of high speed data transmission services. Exploring this possible initiative could possibly fal(under several of the goals of the current Strategic Plan including; • Improve communication and coordination with other units of government on important community and economic development issues facing Lakeville. • Create partnerships with Lakeville Chamber of Commerce, DLBA and other businesses and other development associations on mutual development objectives. - Finally, it appears as though there may likely be improvements made to the Fxed Based Operator (FBO) facilities at Airlake Airport in 2006. Working with FBO representatives and MAC staff on these proposed improvements will be necessary to accomplish these improvements. This would fall under the following goal of the Strategic Plan. • Advocate for on behalf of business interests with airport and rail planners. Staff would like input from EDC members regarding the proposed 4-5 2006 work program items listed above. It is the opinion of staff that additional work program items cannot be added and reasonably expected to be completed in 2006. However, if EDC members are of the opinion that other goals of the Strategic Plan should be pursued in 2006, this should be discussed at the meeting. I will be discussing the work program far the Community. and Economic Development Department with City Administrator Steve Mielke on January 23ro and will be able to update the EDC on any additional items or issues that come up as a result of that meeting at our meeting. on ]anuary 24th. The following are .Strategic Plan goals that are not proposed to result in new initiatives to be included in the 2006 Work Program but could be addressed in 2007: • Monitor development and advise the Council to ensure a balanced tax base and a manageable rate of growth. Advocate with the Council and stakeholders for desired, diverse and distinctive commercial development. • Help develop a process with other stakeholders. to begin to meet the Council's affordable housing goals. Improve the awareness and support of Lakeville residents on the importance of C/I to the tax base and quality of life. • Encourage greater citizen. input into the community and economic development decisions. ACTION REQUESTED EDC concurrence as to the major goals of 2005-2007 StrategicPian to be pursued in 2006 and authorize staff to prepare amore detailed work program.

Olson, Community & Economic Development Director if)ate: January 20, 2006 Subject: Summary of 2005 Development Project Feedback Surveys As a result of the 1995 Strategic Plan far Economic Development, the City each year conducts a "survey of business after the development process for feedback." The surveys are sent to developers and owners of commercial and indusMal projects after they have received a certificate of occupancy for their project. The plan also called for an annual report on survey results during the first quarter of the following year. Four measures of satisfaction are addressed in the survey. These include: 1. Were questions answered to the respondent's satisfaction? 2. Whether the respondent felt informed and up-to~ate on City procedures. 3. Whether staff responded in a reasonable amount of time. 4. Rating the overall service received during the development process. In addition, respondents. were asked to provide comments to the City to continually address the. needs of businesses during the development process. In 2005, the City sent out 116 survey letters for which 29 responses were received. In 96% of the surveys that were returned respondents indicated that their questions were answered to heir satisfaction and in most instances rated the services they received as good or excellent. The following is a sample of a number of the written comments that were received in the responses: '7n our process, three particular stafl`members were ~ he/pful (Dave Olson, Amanda Schwabe, Erin Seeman).

Kraus Anderson "Best city we have a'ea/t with!"- LaMettry's Body Shop In comparison to the results from the 2004 survey, the level of favorable responses for questions No. 1 and No. 2 decreased by 4°10, while No. 4 decreased by 1%. The satisfaction or favorable response level increased by 29FO on question No. 3. It should be noted that the survey response rate was down from 394k~ in 2004 to only 25°/0 in 2005. Because of this, a smaller number of responses can have a greeter impact on the overall outcome of the survey. While the responses to the surveys returned were favorable overall in 2005, staff will continue these efforts including the mailing of surveys for projects completed in 2006. A copy of the survey and a detailed breakdown of responses dating back to 2000 are included.

Groups attack eminent domain Page 1 of 2 Posted on Fri, Dec 30, 2005 Groups attack eminent domain Bipartisan coalition aims to block seising of homeowners' land BY BILL SALISBURY Pioneer Press When the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June that local governments could seize private homes to make room for commercial developments, it sparked a wave of legislation from states across the nation to limit the use of eminent domain. That issue will be at the top of the 2006 Minnesota Legislature's agenda when It convenes March 1. Signaling that "homeowner protection" will be a top priority, two Minnesota House Democrats on Thursday announced their proposal to limit local governments' use of property condemnation -beating by a week House Republicans who planned to unveil their own plan to protect property owners next Thursday. Despite the political one-upmanship, House leaders of both parties said there's bipartisan agreement on the issue, and they expect prompt action on legislation to tighten up Minnesota's eminent domain law. "I expect legislation to be ready to pass during the first week of the session," said House Speaker Steve Sviggum, R- Kenyon. First out of the chute with a plan were House Minority Leader Matt Entenza, DFLSt. Paul, and ReD• Paul Thissen, DFL- Minneapolis. At a Capitol news conference, they proposed legislation to prohibit local governments from using their condemnation power to seize private homes for commercial use. e Thissen said his hill would create an exception so cities could continue to condemn blighted properties, but "we ought to draw a line where homeowners are keeping up their property." He said his proposals also would expand the power of courts to review eminent domain cases. "We want to set a bottom line," Entenza said, "and that line is it's wrong for governments to take people's homes just to build luxury town homes or condos so the government wn make more property-tax money." In its June 23 decision In Kelo vs. New London, Conn., the Supreme Court ruled the 5th Amendment allows local governments to condemn private property and transfer it to another private entity for economic development that henefits the public. But the court also said states could pass more restrictive eminent domain laws. Four states -Alabama, Delaware, Ohio and Texas -already have adopted such laws, and the National Conference of State Legislatures on Thursday listed eminent domain as one of the top 30 issues for state lawmakers across the country next year. In the Minnesota Legislature, Rep. Jeff Johnson, the Plymouth Republican who chairs a House civil law committee, said he has been working over the last four months with a "broad, bipartisan coalition" of interest groups to draft legislation to protect private property. The coalition includes business, farm, civil rights, union and socially conservative organizations. "Our bill will look very much like their (Entenza and Thissen's) bill," Johnson said, but it will protect businesses as well as homes. DFL Sen. Thomas Baak of Cook will sponsor the measure in the Senate, he said, and he would welcome Thissen as a co-sponsor. Johnson's committee wNt conduct the first hearing on his bill Jan. IS In Blaine. While Minnesota has had few sensational court cases on the issue, Johnson said he's received dozens of complaints that local governments are abusing their condemnation powers. "It's threatened more often than it's used," he said. Local authorities use it as a "gun to [he head of property owners to force them to sell." On the other side of the debate are city officials, construction firms and redevelopment specialists who argue they need the power to remove blighted properties to make way for economic growth and revitalized neighborhoods. http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/news/local/13512073.htm?template=contentM... 12/30/2005 Groups attack eminent domain Page 2 of 2 "The concern is they are going to take this too far and we really need to be thoughtful in our approach," said Laura Harris, a lobbyist for the League of Minnesota Cities. But Sviggum said that after the Supreme Court ruling, it's important for the state to protect the constitutional rights of private property owners. He said it would be one of the top five or six items on the House Republican majority's agenda next session. The Associated Press contributed to this story.

PAUL, MINNESOTA - Last update: January O8, 2006 - 9:34 PM Eminent domain comes calling ; A Champlin couple's house is in the cross hairs of city plans to jazz up the Mississippi riverfront, bringing renewed fears over seizing of property. David Peterson, Star Tribune A pair of outraged grandparents from Champlin emerged last week as the living symbols of the dark side of eminent domain the governments power to swipe your home and hand the property to someone else. But less than two miles away, across the Mississippi River in Anoka, the same tool is playing a key role in helping revitalize an aging downtown. Officials in Champlin admit to some misgivings about what could happen there the use of eminent domain to add condos and a marina to the city's riverfront. But their counterparts in Anoka call their project turning parking lots into a town center the most important of its kind in the city's history. Although eminent domain has long been used to secure land for roads and other civic projects, the policy is now generating heated debate in Minnesota and across the nation after a U.S. Supreme Court decision last summer approved the seizure of private homes for economic development. Last week, Gov. Tim Pawlenty was joined by state lawmakers from across the political spectrum in calling for a legislation that would curb government land- taking. Similar measures are under consideration in other states. But the process of crafting such laws could be more complicated and intense than it first looks. Eminent domain, all sides agree, is a valuable tool; its a question of how and when it's used. "Cities do sometimes do things you and I might wonder about," said Louis Jambois, executive director of a metro-area association of cities. "But this issue defies simple bumper sticker ideology." Defining 'public purpose' With the Legislature set to convene in March, Minnesota cities are gearing up for afull-scale battle on behalf of what some are calling a public "hysteria" after the court case known as Kelo vs. New London. Late last week, the Republican-dominated Metropolitan Council announced that it will consider a proposal this week to stop giving subsidies to projects invoking "the power of eminent domain to transfer property from one private party to another." Such a decision could jeopardize at least one major pending grant, to the city of Anoka. http://wwwstarh'ibune.com/462/v-print/story/171007.htm1 1/9/2006 Eminent domain comes calling Page 2 of 3 T , "It's in the eye of the beholder when we talk about what constitutes 'public purpose,' "said Chris Georgacas, a council member pushing the proposal. "We want to make sure as we craft this policy that the definition of public purpose doesn't get stretched beyond what has been commonly accepted" meaning things like roads, sewers or schools. City officials across the region concede that the public outcry over eminent domain is likely to wind up forcing them to abide by stricter standards. But they are privately warning legislators that for every televised outrage in one city where a family's home is threatened, there's another city using the same tool to reclaim decrepit industrial land for community use. Eminent domain opponents last week selected Jim and Beverly Meide of Champlin as their means of making the issue come alive: The northern suburb, they said, wants to kick them out of their home of nearly 30 years. Cities say it's often not clear which property owners are really refusing to leave or whether they're holding out for a better price. The Meides said they haven't been offered enough. Under eminent domain, property owners are compensated if seizure occurs. The Meides also agree that what Champlin envisions for the area is more than just kicking some people out in favor of others. The goal is shops, dining and a public riverfront. New heart of the city Just a short distance across the river, meanwhile, a similar project is much closer to reality: It's what Anoka's development director, Bob Kirchner, calls a "new epicenter" for the entire city. Downtown Anoka may not look distressed to the casual visitor, he said, but fully one-third of its floor space mainly second-floor units once used as apartments --are vacant, many uninhabitable. In the face of all that, he said, the "heart of Anoka" project aims to complete a riverside trail system and add to public park land. Hundreds of condos and new shops are part of the deal. Most of the property acquired was vacant, he said, but a pair of owners of rental property could force an eminent-domain faceoff. "We're right at the threshold of a lot of exciting things happening in Anoka," he said. But the city awaits a major Met Council grant for a parking deck needed to support the developments. The question whether to deny a project such as Anoka's is bound to lead to debate within the Met Council, not to mention the Legislature. Lee McGrath is the executive director of the Minnesota chapter of the Institute for Justice, a group fighting to scale back eminent domain. http://www.startribune.com/462/v-print/story/171007.htm1 1/9/2006 ' ° Eminent domain comes calling Page 3 of 3 Government should not have the power to take property for economic development. It has plenty of other tools," he said. "It should not have the power to choose political favorites and take property from existing homeowners and small businesses that have been in the community for years and transfer it to the politically favored," One of the most deceptive things about these plans, McGrath said, is that they tend to be "tax increment" projects, meaning the city doesn't reap any payoff for 25 years. "You end up kicking out small businesses for aesthetics, and little else." Seeing all sides Steve Devich, city manager in Richfield, said that isn't quite true. Richfield was the poster city for eminent domain in the 1990s, having invoked it as part of a plan to clear out car dealerships and homes to make way for Best Buy's corporate headquarters. Not only has $20 million in property market value soared to $134 million, he said, but as the city awaits its full payoff, Richfield is benefitting from the nearly a half-million dollars a year the company is contributing to a fund to help upgrade its housing stock. Moreover, he said, even as Best Buy's tax value was frozen, an older tax- incrementdistrict matured, bringing a "big bump in revenues." Bottom line, Devich said, eminent domain is a valuable tool for cities and thdse weighing in need to consider all aspects of it, particularly its potential for community improvements that affect all residents. "It's hard to get the same emotional feeling for that as someone saying, 'Look, here's Mr. and Mrs. Johnson who've lived here 38 years and the city's going to take them out,' "Devich said. "It's an emotionally charged issue. But somehow people have to see the other side." David Peterson •.612-673-4440 ®2006 Star Tribune.
