(b) Pursuant to a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) to be entered into
between the City and the Borrower, the City will loan to the Borrower the proceeds of the

the construction, maintenance, and operation of the Project, indemnification, insurance,

title, and interest in the Loan Agreement to the Purchaser (except for certain rights of
indemnification and to reimbursement for certain costs and expenses).

Agreement (the “Disbursing Agreement”) by and between the Borrower and the Purchaser.
(e) Certain rental and occupancy requirements of federal and state law are set
forth in a Regulatory Agreement (the “Regulatory Agreement”) by and between the City,

pledged therefor under the Loan Agreement; (ii) shall not constitute a debt of the City
within the meaning of any constitutional, charter, or statutory limitation; (iii) shall not
constitute nor give rise to a pecuniary liability of the City or a charge against its general
credit or taxing powers; (iv) shall not constitute a charge, lien, or encumbrance, legal or
equitable, upon any property of the City other than the City’s interest in the Loan
Agreement, which will be assigned to the Purchaser under the Pledge Agreement; and (v)
shall not constitute a general or moral obligation of the City.
(g) It is desirable, feasible and consistent with the objects and purposes of the
Act to issue the Note for the purpose of financing the costs of the Project.

meaning of Section 142(d) of the Code, and a “multifamily housing development”
authorized by the Act, and furthers the purposes of the Act.

public welfare by the acquisition and construction of a facility for use as a multifamily
housing development designed primarily for occupancy by persons of low and moderate
income.

the performance of all covenants and agreements of the City contained in the City
Agreements and any other documents reasonably necessary to effectuate the intent of this
resolution, and (v) the performance of all other acts and things required under the
constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota to make the City Agreements and the Note
valid and binding special, limited obligations of the City in accordance with its terms.
(k) It is desirable that the Borrower be authorized, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement, which terms and conditions the City
determines, based on representations of the Borrower, to be necessary, desirable, and
proper, to complete the acquisition, construction, and installation of the Project by such
means as shall be available to the Borrower and in the manner determined by the Borrower,
and with or without advertisement for bids as required for the acquisition and installation
of municipal facilities.
(l) The payments under the Loan Agreement are fixed to produce revenue
sufficient to provide for the prompt payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on the Note when due, and the Loan Agreement also provides that the Borrower is required
to pay all expenses of the operation and maintenance of the Project, including, but without
limitation, adequate insurance thereon and insurance against all liability for injury to
persons or property arising from the operation thereof, and all taxes and special
assessments levied upon or with respect to the Project and payable during the term of the
Loan Agreement.
(m) There is no litigation pending or, to the actual knowledge of the City,
threatened against the City questioning the City’s execution or delivery of the Note or the
City Agreements or questioning the due organization of the City, or the powers or authority
of the City to issue the Note and undertake the transactions contemplated hereby.
(n) The execution, delivery, and performance of the City’s obligations under
the Note and the City Agreements do not and will not violate any order against the City of
any court or other agency of government, or any indenture, agreement, or other instrument
to which the City is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or be in conflict
with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default
under any such indenture, agreement or other instrument.
(o) The City hereby finds, determines, and declares, based on representations
of the Borrower, that it is in the public interest of the residents of the City that the Project
be undertaken in order to further the public purpose by providing multifamily housing
developments for low or moderate income residents of the City and otherwise further the
purposes and policies of the Act.

authorize the Borrower, in accordance with the provisions of the Act and subject to the terms and
conditions imposed by the Purchaser, to provide for the acquisition and construction of the Project

and without advertisement for bids as may be required for the construction and acquisition of other
5

12126778v3
Exhibit A
MULTI-FAMILY RENTAL HOUSING PROGRAM OF THE
CITY OF PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA
FOR
FOUR SEASONS FAMILY APARTMENTS PROJECT
November 12, 2019
Proposal; Authority. The City of Plymouth, Minnesota (the "City"), at the request of the
Borrower (defined below), proposes to issue revenue bonds, in one or more series, to assist in
financing the acquisition and construction of a multi-family rental housing project described herein
(this "Program") pursuant to applicable authority conferred upon the City by the laws of the State
of Minnesota, including without limitation Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C, as the same may be
amended from time to time (collectively, the "Act").
Purposes. In creating this Program, the City is acting in furtherance of its findings that the
preservation of the quality of life in the City is in part dependent upon the maintenance and
provision of adequate, decent, safe, sanitary, and affordable housing stock; that accomplishing the
goals of this Program is a public purpose and will benefit the residents of the City; that the need
exists within the City to provide in a timely fashion additional affordable rental housing to and for
the benefit of persons of low and moderate income and their families residing and expected to
reside within the City; that there exist or are expected to exist persons and families within the City
who are and will be able to benefit from and are in need of the Program; that the Program is
necessary in view of the limited resources that may be available to such persons relative to the
expenses involved in accomplishing the type of objectives outlined in this Program in the absence
of one or more of the forms of assistance described herein or otherwise available pursuant to the
Act; and that the City hereby finds that such forms of assistance are often necessary for the benefit
of such persons, families, and goals and that, furthermore, the successful implementation of the
objectives of the kind described in this Program has been found to provide impetus for the
development of other housing in the City, as well as the general development of the City, by other
persons who are not the beneficiaries of such governmentally sponsored or assisted activities.
Rental Housing Purposes. More particularly, the City finds that there exists a need for
affordable multi-family rental housing for qualifying individuals and families, which need is not
being filled by private enterprise alone due to a variety of factors, including that the cost of new
construction of multi-family rental units may in many cases prove economically unfeasible, given
the high costs of construction and prevailing area rental levels, and that therefore appropriate levels
of public assistance may be helpful and necessary in bridging that gap.
General Description of the Program. This Program consists of the financing of the
acquisition and construction of an approximately 301,634 square-foot rentable apartment
community that will consist of an approximately 163-unit multi-family housing development
known as Four Seasons Family Apartments (the "Project"). The owner of the Project pursuant to
the financing will be Plymouth Leased Housing Associates V, LLLP, a Minnesota limited liability
limited partnership (the "Borrower"), with Plymouth Leased Housing Associates V, LLC, a
Minnesota limited liability company, as general partner.
12126778v3
Location. This Program is limited to the Project. The Project is located at 4108 Lancaster
Lane North, in Plymouth, Minnesota.
Units. The Project is currently anticipated to consist of the following units:
Units Number of Square Footage Estimated Initial
Units Rents
1 BR / 1 BA(50%) 4 723 $915
1 BR / 1 BA (60%) 23 723 $1,114
1 BR / 1 BA (70%) 4 723 $1,315
2 BR / 2 BA (50%) 9 1,050 $1,095
2 BR / 2 BA (60%) 66 1,050 $1,335
2 BR / 2 BA (70%) 9 1,050 $1,576
3 BR / 2 BA (50%) 5 1,320 $1,261
3 BR / 2 BA (60%) 38 1,320 $1,538
3 BR / 2 BA (70%) 5 1,320 $1,816
Revenue Bonds. The amount of revenue bonds required to finance this Program will not
exceed $45,000,000. The City preliminarily intends to finance the Program by issuing bonds, in
one or more series. The proceeds will finance the acquisition and construction of the Project and
pay costs of issuing the bonds. The revenue bonds are expected to be issued in 2019, subject to
final Council approval in its sole and absolute discretion.
Monitoring. The City expects to enter into suitable agreements with the Borrower, the
purchaser of the bonds and/or others respecting the monitoring or implementation by participants
to ensure that the Project will be consistent with this housing Program and its objectives, which
for this purpose means providing affordable rental housing.
Meeting Needs; Methods. The Program will meet the need for rental housing for persons
and families of low and moderate incomes by providing units at an affordable rent. The City
believes that this Program will help meet the identified needs under this Program. The specific
methods anticipated to be used include the issuance of revenue bonds under the Act to provide
feasible financing for various aspects of the Program so undertaken.
Authorization. The Program is undertaken pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section
462C.05, Subdivision 2, for units affordable to persons and families of low and moderate income.
Limits on Gross Income. In connection with the issuance of the Bonds, the Borrower will
be required to agree to limit the gross income of occupants of the Project in accordance with the
requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C, and with the requirements relating to tax-
exempt bonds for qualified residential rental projects.
Adopted and approved on November 12, 2019, by the City Council of the City of
Plymouth, Minnesota.
