To provide a less formal forum to discuss these issues, the Plymouth City Council will host a town meeting on Tues., May 15, 7 p.m., at the Activity Center at Plymouth Creek Center, 14800 - 34`h Ave. N. The meeting will begin with an update of citywide issues. After the large group meeting, City Councilmembers will break into small group meetings based on the City's four wards. The smaller group meetings will give citizens a chance to discuss issues of specific interest to their area. Attendees also will have a chance to tour the Activity Center at Plymouth Creek Center, which opened last June. Refreshments will be served.

For the second time, the Northwest Broadcast News Association has honored Channel 12 for Overall News Excellence for Cable Television. Anne Angerer, news director for channel 12 commented, "We have a very talented and dedicated group of journalists at 12 News and while our number one goal is to inform our viewers, it is nice to receive the recognition of our peers. It is great to see hard work rewarded!" John Jacobson and Jay Wilcox hosts of Channel 12's SportsJam won the award of merit for sports reporting in a large market. John Jacobson said, "I am proud of all our staff that works hard on this show every week. We think we have a unique product, covering the local high school sports on a regular basis. We are in good company with the excellent sports coverage that the local affiliates provide in this market." Jason Ziemer producer and host of Northwest Cities, won the award of merit for Overall Excellence in Cable TV. "It is a tremendous honor to be recognized by your peers for the work you've done. This is the first award I've ever won since beginning my career in broadcasting; will always remember this moment whether or not I win another award." Channel 12 reporter Jamison Uhler was honored with two awards from the Minnesota Associated Press. First place in the Investigative Reporting category for "Drunk on the Information Superhighway", a story that worked with area police departments to stop out-of- state Internet alcohol web sites from delivering liquor to minors. Uhler won an Honorable Mention in the Feature Reporting category for "Homesick", a look at area immigrants who have come to the United States and find a common thread through the sport of cricket. These are the first journalism awards for Uhler as well. He said, "It's great to be recognized individually for your hard work, but I would be remiss not to acknowledge, this is a team award for a team effort."

Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: WH Link Application for OVS Certification The Cities of Plymouth, Minnesota and Maple Grove Minnesota have received the FCC Form 1275, Certification for Open Video Systems, as completed by WH Link, LLC ("Applicant"). Plymouth and a Maple Grove are part of a nine -city consortium referred to as the Northwest Suburbs Cable Communications Commission ("NWSCCC") which acts as the franchising authority for the participating communities. As such, the NWSCCC is filing these comments on behalf of Plymouth and Maple Grove. Based upon the limited material available for review and the short time frame in which to file comments, the following concerns have been expressed. The NWSCCC recognizes that pursuant Section 653 (c)(1)(C) of the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. 573 (c)(1)(C), OVS providers are not required under federal law to obtain a franchise in order to provide OVS service. At the same time, as the FCC has recognized in its Order on Remand from the Fifth Circuit's decision in City of Dallas V. FCC, 165 F.3d 341 (5' Cir. 1999), "localities retain their existing franchising authority" with respect to OVS operators. In the Matter of Implementation of Section 302 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, Order on Remand, CS Docket No. 96-46, released November 19, 1999. Consistent with this finding and the holding in Dallas, the NWSCCC requests that any action on WH Link's Certification Application affirm the cities' continuing franchising authority under applicable Minnesota law.

The good news and the bad news are that legislation on these fertilizers is dead for this session. The bad news is that SF1789, which would have effectively addressed the use and sale of lawn fertilizers statewide, did not have a hearing prior to the March 30 deadline. As good news, the so-called Ag Bill (HF1524/SF1555) made it to the House floor but did not make it out of Senate committee. This bill hardly addressed the sale of phosphorus in lawn fertilizers, and would have been both preemptive and prescriptive for metro -area cities. (Enclosed is a memorandum from Shorewood's city administrator, summarizing what happened during this session.) So far, 30 cities (including four outside of the seven -county metro area), the Minnesota Association of Watershed Districts (MAWD), the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District have stated their support (mostly through resolutions) of statewide limitations on the use and sale of lawn fertilizers containing phosphorus. Many commented that they believe state -level regulation is, in the end, the only effective way to control the use and sale of these fertilizers. The population of these cities is more than 1,000,000 — over 20 percent of Minnesota's residents. This figure alone indicates the widespread, grass-roots support for more effective regulations to improve the quality of waters enjoyed by Minnesotans throughout the state. During the short period of time spent developing the proposed legislation, others — including those outside of government — indicated their support as well. Momentum has developed quickly across a broadening coalition. We will keep building it for the next session of the Legislature. «� PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER Re: Legislation on Lawn Fertilizers Containing Phosphorus April 26, 2001 Page Two I want to thank those cities that have passed resolutions or given other indications of support for such legislation.

Dawson, City Administrator DATE: April 9, 2001 SUBJECT: Lawn Fertilization Legislation The City -coordinated legislative effort for stronger limitations on lawn fertilizers containing phosphorus CT") is dead for this session. Senator Linda Higgins scuttled the SF1555, the companion to HF1524 that had been passed on to the House floor. Without progress of the Senate companion, this legislation can not go on to conference committee for enactment this year. The Bills under Consideration There were three bills affecting lawn fertilizers this session: HF1524 (Leppik)/SF1555 (Higgins) These files have been referred to as "the Ag Bill", as it came out of a one- or two-year effort by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture to work out a compromise among the stakeholders it identified. Its key features were: • Affect the use of lawn fertilizers, limiting P to three percent (the major manufacturer(s) has a five percent minimum of P in the blend) • Regulations regarding sale were limited to requiring retailers to provide consumer information at the point-of-sale Focus of legislation was on consumer education If cities in the seven -county metropolitan area decided to adopt their own ordinances, they would be limited in what and how they could regulate lawn fertilizers by this Act • This pre-emptive and prescriptive feature became the key sticking point that stalled progress on the Senate bill HF1508 (Howes)/SF1565 (Higgins) These files were similar to HF1524/SF1555, but did not include the pre emption/prescription provisions. These bills did not progress out of their initial committees. n rr� PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER -- 2 -- SF1789 (Higgins)/HF2075 (Kelliher) These files were the ones that the City of Shorewood offered to the legislative authors. Key features included: • Restrictions on the use of lawn fertilizers containing P • Restrictions on the sale of lawn fertilizers containing P; simplistically, allowing retailers to sell them only to persons showing need to use P to establish or maintain their turf • Related only to lawn fertilizers, not to agricultural or gardening purposes • Statewide in scope Neither of these bills made it out of their initial committees, and as such could not be considered for the rest of the 2001 session. The only bill that had made it through one committee of either side of the legislature by the March 30 deadline was HF1524. Consequently, SF1555 would be the only Senate bill in play. We had hoped that Senator Higgins would consider a "delete all amendment" to SF1555, and substitute the text of SF1789. The Course of the Week of April 2 SF1555 was scheduled to be heard by the Senate Environment and Natural Resources Committee on Tuesday morning, April 3. An amended bill was created by mid-afternoon Monday, April 2, but a copy of this bill was not forwarded to the City. During the course of the hearing, Senator Higgins was literally "lobbied" outside the hearing room by persons representing the City, the Department of Agriculture, and others interested in the sale or manufacturer of lawn fertilizers. (Plymouth Councilmember Ginny Black joined on the cities' side of the discussion.) In the end, Senator Higgins delayed discussion of the bill to the Thursday, April 5, meeting of the Committee, and asked that the parties in the lobby develop a compromise on Wednesday, April 4, that she could bring forward on April 5. Representatives of the cities, Department of Agriculture, and Minnesota Nursery & Landscaping Association met at the Ag offices on Wednesday morning. We identified for Ag what would be an acceptable (although not preferred) bill, and indicated that future legislation would also be need to be developed. Essentially, the bill could go through provided that (a) the law would apply to the metropolitan area, such that local ordinances would not be necessary, and (b) cities, water management organizations, and retailers be specifically named as groups to be consulted by the Department of Agriculture when evaluating further regulatory and research needs. We heard later that afternoon from higher-ups in Ag that they could not support these provisions. In the early evening, Senator Higgins called Mayor Love and said that she was pulling the bill. Next Steps We will build upon a coalition that has been quickly forming behind the City's initiative to regulate the use and sale of lawn fertilizers containing P. Already, 25 cities (including three in Greater Minnesota) and two organizations have adopted resolutions or have positions supporting this scope of regulation. The population of these 25 cities is 960,000, or 20 percent of Minnesota residents. We will also work with our municipal organizations — the League of Minnesota Cities and Association of Metropolitan Municipalities (AMM) — to develop and gain approval of policy positions favoring the sale -and -use legislation.

Plymouth, MN 55447 April 30, 2001 J. Tierney, Mayor City of Plymouth 3400 Plymouth Blvd Plymouth, MN 55447 Dear Mayor Tierney: This correspondence is in regards to the improvement in highway 101 project south of highway 55. I find that Plymouth has purchased numerous houses at the corner of 101 and county road 24. I have asked why I was not given the opportunity to also have Plymouth purchase my property. I can get not respond from Fred Moore, he tells me to contact Hennepin County. They tell me it up to Plymouth. Could you find out why I was not given the same opportunity? In contacting both people at Hennepin County and Plymouth I can not find out whether or not their will be a walking/running path in front of the house. No one will state there will be a path (it appears on the drawings this could happen) or guarantee there will not be a path. This does affect the value of the remaining property. Also I find when Plymouth and Hennepin County upgraded County Road 6 near the 494 freeway that houses/land that was purchased by Plymouth was used in your "affordable housing program" I do not know what restrictions were placed on the buyers, but I understand that presently one of the houses is being used as a "group home" for young individuals. There are numerous calls to the police department regarding problems that arise there. Are these home at County road 24 and 101 going to used for "affordable housing" also? If so I feel the area homeowners should be made aware of this. I shall look forward to the answers to these questions.

MAYOR CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS �o CITY OF PLVMOUTFF May 3, 2001 Jay Scott North American Properties 18566 Bearpath Trail Eden Prairie, MN 55347 SUBJECT: Lighting at Plymouth Marketplace Dear Jay: We received a copy of the letter sent to you by Bruce and Veronica Johnson outlining a number of concerns they have about the lighting at Plymouth Marketplace. After reviewing these concerns, we visited the site and checked what we saw against the conditions in 1) the City Council resolution approving Plymouth Marketplace and 2) the administrative approvals for the two retail buildings and the Lund's grocery store. Based on this review, we have the following comments. I would add that the Johnson's referred to an agreement a number of times in their letter. We are not aware of or party to any private agreement that you may have with the neighbors. The City can only require you to comply with the conditions of project approval and applicable Zoning Ordinance requirements. Retail Building Lighting The Johnson's letter indicated that you agreed not to put lights directly on the back of the retail building. Staff checked the elevations approved with the PUD general plan and found that building lights were shown on these elevations and therefore were approved as part of the PUD general plan. Further, staff recognizes that the reason for these lights is based on safety and we support their inclusion for that purpose. However, as stipulated in the approving resolution, the light fixtures must meet the standards in the Zoning Ordinance. You will need to provide the City with documentation that the building -mounted fixtures have a cutoff angle of less than or equal to 66 degrees for vertically mounted fixtures and less than or equal to 90 degrees for horizontally mounted fixtures. If the existing fixtures do not meet the applicable standard, you will need to replace them with fixtures that do. PLYMOUTH A'Beautifu[Place To Live 3400 PLYMOUTH BOULEVARD • PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA 55447-1482 • TELEPHONE (612) 509-5000 www.d.plymouth.mn.us Jay Scott Page 2 The light standards in the rear of the retail building exceed the height allowed in the Zoning Ordinance. The resolution approving Plymouth Marketplace included a condition that all lighting meet Zoning Ordinance standards. Based on the retail building height of 20 feet, 4 inches, the ordinance would require that the height of a freestanding light not extend above the roof line of the building. The existing standards clearly exceed this height and must be replaced with standards that do not exceed the height of the building. In addition, you will need to provide the City with documentation that the lights have a cutoff angle equal to or less than 90 degrees. The Johnson's letter referred to automatic controls to shut off or dim lights after store hours. The City's approving resolution did not restrict the hours that fixtures could be illuminated nor does the Zoning Ordinance. The City regulates lighting levels through the requirements that fixtures have stipulated cutoff angles and not exceed 0.5 foot candles as measured from the property line or public street centerline. Noodles and Chipotle Building Lighting The Johnson's letter indicated that you agreed not to place any signs on the northwest side of the building. The City's approving resolution stipulated that this building could not have any signs on the north side of the building, but did not prohibit sign placement on the west side. The Master Sign Plan approved as part of this project shows a sign on the west side of the building. Consequently, the sign is permitted. The decorative fixtures on the building would appear not to meet Zoning Ordinance standards. The accent lighting for the building signs also may not meet standards. As is the case with the lights on the rear of the retail building, you will need to provide the City with documentation that these fixtures have a cutoff angle of less than or equal to 66 degrees for vertically mounted fixtures and less than or equal to 90 degrees for horizontally mounted fixtures. If any of the existing fixtures do not meet the applicable standard, you will need to replace them with fixtures that do. The Johnson's letter objected to light fixtures over the service doors on the north side of the building. As was the case with the lights attached to the rear of the retail building, these lights were shown on the elevations approved as part of the PUD general plan. Their purpose is also for security which staff supports. However, as is the case with the retail building, you will need to provide the City with documentation that the building -mounted fixtures have a cutoff angle of less than or equal to 66 degrees for vertically mounted fixtures and less than or equal to 90 degrees for horizontally mounted fixtures. If the existing fixtures do not meet the applicable standard, you will need to replace them with fixtures that do. The Johnson's letter objected to windows on the north and west sides of the Noodles/Chipotle building. Nothing in the approving resolution or zoning ordinance standards would prohibit windows on these two sides of the building. On the contrary, City Center design standards that apply to this building require that all sides of buildings have an equal appearance in terms of materials and general design. That factor together with the fact that this building is located at the entrance to Plymouth Marketplace would indicate that both the north and west sides of the building have windows. Jay Scott Page 3 General Project Lighting The Johnson's letter indicated that your parking lot lights throughout Plymouth Marketplace are not distinctive and tasteful as promised. The City's approving resolution did not stipulate decorative lighting, so the City would not be able to require you to change the lighting on that basis. However, you will need to provide the City with documentation that 1) all the freestanding light standards do not extend above the roof line of the buildings and 2) the light fixtures have a cutoff angle equal to or less than 90 degrees. Any lighting not meeting these standards will have to be replaced with standards and fixtures that do. The City requires that you comply with the directives in this letter as follows. All items except the lighting on the Noodles/Chipotle building must be corrected before the City will reduce any letter of credit associated with the site improvement performance agreement. Because it appears that the Noodles/Chipotle building decorative lighting does not meet City standards, we require that you cease use of this lighting immediately and move to replace these fixtures with acceptable fixtures.

Scott, Partner North American Properties 18566 Bearpath Trail Minneapolis, MN 55347 RE: Corrective Actions Required at Plymouth Marketplace Dear Jay, North American Properties made strong commitments to Sugar Hills' residents and the City of Plymouth concerning Plymouth Marketplace lighting. Commitment "Over the past two to three month we've worked with the residents of Sugar Hills to address their concerns which include noise, lights and pollution. We've incorporated all the City's new standards for lighting and we've minimized the lighting in the back of buildings to reduce the lighting impacts to Sugar Hills. " - - Jay Scott presentation, June 27, 2000 City Council Meeting Reality 1. The lighting installed at the back of the large retail store has not been minimized. In fact it's been maximized! It exceeds any existing Plymouth shopping complex ... including the recently built Plymouth Station. 2. The lighting, signage and windows installed for the Noodles & Chipotle Building are totally contrary to the carefully constructed agreements reached with the Sugar Hills residents. 3. The parking lot lighting fixtures installed in the main parking area do not come close to those shown Sugar Hills residents during the approval process. Furthermore, there is strong reason to believe the installed lights will glare into Sugar Hills. Allow me to expand on each of the above. I. Lighting at Rear of Large Retail Store facing Sugar Hills The parking lot and building lighting on the north side of this building facing Sugar Hills was discussed at great length. The agreement reached was: i. No lights would be put directly on the building. ii. Instead, a limited number of light standards, with shields and low to the ground would be installed on the tree side of the parking lot for safety/security reasons. iii. Automatic controls would shut off or dim those lights after store hours. So what actually got installed? i. Nine (9) building lights without glare protection. ii. Eleven 35' parking lot standards. Three with 2 -light pods & one with 4 -pods. Action: 1) Remove the rear building light fixtures. 2) Remove all 35' high light fixtures at the rear parking lot. 3) Install a minimum number of low to the ground fixtures, with shields on all four sides ... on the tree side of the parking lot. At this point, I don't want to hear about code conformance. This is something that should have been known or checked into before entering into agreements with Sugar Hills. Everyone on the Council, Community Development and North American Properties knew this was a very sensitive issue to Sugar Hills and that accommodations had to be made. Furthermore, a PUD allows variances to codes. 2. Noodles & Chipotle Building a) The northwest facing side of the Chipotle restaurant has a lighted sign. The agreement states that all store signs are to be on the "front" side only of buildings... none faces north or toward Sugar Hills. Action: Remove the northwest facing Chipotle sign plus the fixtures that light up that sign. b) The north and west sides of this building have decorative light fixtures with large open exposed bulbs that glare directly toward Sugar Hills. The agreement states no decorative light fixtures are to be installed on the north sides of buildings. Action: Remove the north and west facing decorative light fixtures. c) The north side of this building has two service doors with light fixtures that glare directly into Sugar Hills Action: Remove the service door light fixtures. That side of the building is already fully illuminated with parking lot lights installed directly adjacent to that building. As a result those fixtures serve no useful purpose. Furthermore, I don't want to hear about codes ... this is a PUD that allows variances to codes T w ; d) This building has several windows on the north and west sides. This is something that was repeatedly discussed with you and agreed to by you. The agreement states no windows shall face toward Sugar Hills that could cause glare into the neighborhood. Furthermore there is no requirement for those windows by code nor is there a written directive to that effect in the file from the City Council or Community Development group. If on the other hand you can show me a written directive from the Community Development group requiring installation of windows, then why was no one from Sugar Hills notified or involved? Action: Remove the north and west side windows. Sorry about the expense and inconvenience, but they should not have been installed in the first place. 3. Parking Lot Lights in Main Area a) Through out the discussion of this project you emphasized how the parking lot lights would be distinctive and tasteful. We were presented with drawings of very attractive parking lot lights. However, the parking lot lights actually installed are pedestrian and ho-hum ... found in every boring strip mall. Well what the heck happened? Action: Present a proposal to install parking lot lights as promised. Please honor the commitments made when this was being approved. b) There is strong reason to believe the parking lot lights will glare into our neighborhood. Action: The lights are now ready for a test. Let's do it within the week. If there's glare, then directional shields should be installed. Upon reflection. Following the approval vote, the Mayor and several Council Members commented openly during the meeting on this being a fine example of cooperation between residents and a developer. This outcome was particularly admired given the rezoning to retail development directly adjacent to an established neighborhood. Don't worry, promised the developer; we've agreed to take special precautions to buffer light pollution. Hummmm! That has not happened. Frankly, it appears quite the opposite has happened. North American Properties now needs to honor agreements and commitments made to the Sugar Hills residents in front of the City Council. I hope to see immediate and proactive responses from North American Properties and firm support for Sugar Hills by the City of Plymouth. Please no defensiveness or cost avoidance. Just accountable correction.

City of Plymouth Plymouth, MN 55555 Dear Eric: We would like to thank you for the time you spent working with our association this past season. As we discussed, the Plymouth Ice Center facilities have proven to be a tremendous benefit to the Wayzata Youth Hockey Association and community at large. There is no question that the addition of the two ice sheets at the Plymouth Ice Center has greatly improved the hockey "experience" for the over 800 participants and families of Wayzata Youth Hockey. Our growth and subsequent ice usage requirements continues to exceed the availability of ice hours provided by the Plymouth Ice Center. We would like to go on record that we are committed to the City of Plymouth and any effort to expand the Plymouth Ice Center facility. To meet today's demand, we currently purchase over 400 hours of ice annually from arenas outside our community. Due to our projected growth rates, the need for additional ice is a major concem. This past season we had a 15% increase in our membership. We anticipate this trend to continue due to several factors: • 2001-2002 season we will introduce a new program for children under the age of five years old - TERMITES. This will brit children into the game and continue to add to our our already growing mite. program • Girl's Hockey — this program continues to grow and develop. 2 years ago we added a team for girl's aged 10 & under. We anticipate adding a second team at this level this year. As the girl's graduate onto the older levels, more teams will need to be added. • Jr. Gold — this level is comprised of high school aged boys. In the past we have seen a fairly significant drop in participation at this level. This year we will be adding a 5"' team to the program because we are doing a much getter job of retaining these players and keeping them involved in youth hockey, all the way through high school graduation. In addition to program ice, we continue to develop clinics and other programs to train our athletes to their top potential. While we do use a significant amount of ice time for these training programs, we have realized that many times this venue is not ideally suited for the specialized training required. A significant amount of training for our program should be done "off -ice." We presently have no facility for this purpose and are looking to develop an off -ice training facility. This facility would be from 5000- 10,000 square feet and accommodate some of the following attributes: • Shooting and stickhandling stations • Plyometric, balance and agility training equipment • Weights • Conditioning • Page 2 April 30, 2001 We are also looking for a location to establish an "official" Wayzata Youth Hockey office, preferably at the training center location. Eric, we value our relationship with yourself and Bill Abet and would like to continue working together to meet the needs of our association and the citizens of the City of Plymouth. Please feel free to contact me for further details or discussion. Thank you.

It does contain two constitutional amendments, one to transfer 60% of MVST (auto sale, tax) to HUTDF (Highway distribution fund) and one to allow state general fund bond procaeds to be used for trunk highways. The bill provides a very modest Metro transit operat- ing increase but eliminates $19 million from last years $44 million exclusive bus transitway appro- priation. It requires Metro Council to create LRT special service districts to include C/I property within one-half mile of an LRT line except Mall of America to pay icor LRT opera- tionial cost quested by them. Finally the bili contains ability for cities to create'quiet zones' around railroad tracks, auto registration fee increase from $3.50 to $4.50, 'choose life' license plates, a sane lane study, and TH62 crosstown delay for one year. Senate Omnibus Transporta- tion Bill SF2340 (Sen. Dean .Johnson) provides about $300 million more in general fund appropria- tion for Transportation than the Tax bills to be marked up next week not recovered by fares.

Also MNDOT, Metro Coun- cil nor TAB can fail to approve a project or withhold funds based on failure of local unit to zone or impose housing densities re - governor or house, most of it for highways. Metro transit is increased $60 million over the governors recommendation for a total of $196.2 million.

Metropolitan Council Legis- lative Commission The House bill will be in the House tax bill. The Senate companion, which has been amended to be an elected Metropolitan Council, has been referred to the Tax Committee. s -I he House bill generally aaopts the Governor's recommenda- tions for the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). There- fore, the MHFA program consoli- dation is included in the House bill and the total funding approxi- mates $100.0 million. The Sen- ate bill also includes the program consolidation but appropriates $75.0 million in one time funding. The bulk of the funds will be used for rental housing and the hous- ing trust fund. Approximately $6.7 million of the one time funding has been appropriated for the inclusionary housing program. The inclusionary housing pro- gram requirements, however, have changed from preference for lower income units to a re- quirement for lower income units. The Senate bill also provides for a developer initiated affordable housing program. If a developer proposes to have twenty percent of the development's housing units affordable to households whose incomes are at or below eighty percent of the area me- dian income, the city must offer a density bonus of at least thirty - percent and one other regulatory relief measure. The policy changes are not in the House bill. Neither bill includes mandatory inclusionary housing.

For residential homesteads, the bill eliminates the second tier and applies the current first tier rate of 1.0% to the entire value of the property. For residential non -homestead, there would continue to be a tier break at $76,000, but the first tier rate would fall from 1.2% to 1.0% and the second tier rate would fall from 1.65% to 1.5%. Under the proposal, the class rate for all apartments would change gradually to arrive at 1.0% (the same as residential homesteads) by payable 2004.

The rate for small city apartments would decline from 2.15% to 1.5% for payable 2002, and then fall to 1.25% for 2003 and 1.0% fcr 2004. A 1.0% rate would also be applied to all seasonal recre- ational property -both corrmmer- cial and residential, starting with payable 2002.

The bill includes a state prop- erty tax on commercial -industrial and seasonal recreational prop- erty, with the same class rates for the state tax as for local taxes. Finally, the bill would reduce the number of tiers for agricultural homesteads from three to two. Currently, the first tier (up to $115,000) is at 0.35% and second tier ($115,000 - $600,000) is at 0.8%. These tiers would be combined under a 0.55% rate.

Levy base is adjusted each year for household and inflation (Implicit Price Defla- tor). The property tax levy limit is the adjusted base minus general purpose aids. The allowable levy is the greater of (1) the calcu- lated amount, or (2) the amount actually levied in 2000 less any amount for specials. Thus, a city whose levy increased over what the limit for 2000 would have been will not have to reduce their levy but will not be able to in- crease above the limit calcula- tion. Maintains special levies other than 1997/98 flood and tornado related specials. LGA/HACA HACA is eliminated, LGA is increased by $81 million to $505 million in 2002. Limits Metro first class city increase to 55% of HACA loss. Limits other cities increase to 50% of net levy for taxes payable 2001. Also in- creases aid base for cities losing electric generation property tax through compression. In 2003 and beyond a Rental Housing Tax Base replacement aid is provided for net tax capacity reduction in excess of .4 percent due to rental housing class rate compression. Metropolitan Council Legisla- tive Commission The contents of HF 981 have been included in the omnibus bill Sales Tax/Education/General Although there were about 40 requests for sales exemption for city buildings, NONE were granted. The general sales tax on city purchases was not elimi- nated, State determined education levy is eliminated. A statewide property tax on C/I and seasonal recreational is provided to raise $429.4 million in 2002. Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Article XII of the omnibus kill addresses TIF. Many of the general law provisions included in the technical bill or separate bills have been placed into the bill. In some instances the lan- guage has been modified. For example, the pre -1990 provi- sions retain the dates -- plan modification by April 30, 2001 and activities completed or commenced by April 30, 2002 but also permits exemptions similar to those contained in HF 1505. Among the major provisions of the article are the following: Registration of TIF consultants Definition of substandard building to be either dilapi- dated or deteriorating. The effective date for this provision is prospective for new districts (Sept. 1, 2002) Redefines use of increments from pooled districts and expands the use of special taxing authority for deficits. Another article of the bill (Ar- ticle Section 36) establishes a TIF grant program to assist districts to cover deficits caused by the tax class changes and the elimination of the general educa- tion levy. The appropriation for the grants is $184.0 million in fiscal year 2002 and $22.0 million in 2003. Transit Property Tax The bill transfers 19.5 percent of motor vehicle sales tax (MVST) to replace metro council transit property tax for opera- tions. Does not affect capital levy. Protects optouts by requiring a proportional amount be allo- cated.

The Senate bill contains similar language and rates but the pro- posed appropriation is currently only 92.0 million. 7kannsit Fund/ng The House tax bill would remove the metropolitan transit operations levy f.om the property tax and replai:e it with state general fund- ing. Transit debt would continue to be paid from the property tax. Housing Funding The. House Housing and Eco- nomic; Development Finance bill appropriates $129.6 million to the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). Of the total $14,9 million is from federal funds (Tem- porary Assistance for Needy Families) and the remainder is from the state general fund. The federal funds are "one time fund- ing." The, Senate appropriates a similar amount in base funding for the MHFA and $75.0 million in "one time" general funds. The one time money will be used to fund such programs as the inclusionary housing program ($4.0 million), the challenge fund ($20.639 million), and the Housing Trust Fund ($23.017 million). Inclusionary Housing The Senate bill contains provi- sions regarding a developer initi- ated affordable housing program. If a developer proposes to have 20 percent of its units affordable to households having incomes at or below 80 percent of the area median income, the city is required to provide the developer with a 30 percent density bonus and one additional regulatory relief mea- sure. There are no similar provi- sions in the House bill. Legislative Commission on Ilse Atetropolltan Council The House tax bill includes the legislative commission as pro- posed in HF 981. The Senate companion as amended is in the Senate Tax Committee. The Sen- ate version proposes an elected Metropolitan Council. Additional information on these and other issues is included in the tracking report to be sent later today or accessed now on the AMM website. Once the Senate tax bill is introduced, a future fax will summarize the bill and compare it to the House bill.

I MEMO CITY OF PLYMOUTH 3400 Plymouth Boulevard Plymouth, MN 55447 DATE: May 2, 2001 TO: Mayor and City Council Dwight D. Johnson, City Manager through Fred G. Moore, Director of Public Works ��cc FROM: George C. Bentley, Acting Transit Administratorli SUBJECT: Plymouth Metrolink Ridership Graphs UI.U'►1►n1..t J Attached FYI are ridership graphs for Plymouth Metrolink through March, 2001. The first set of graphs depicts actual ridership (boardings) per month, and the other set of graphs shows passengers per day by month. March was a record month for ridership with 34,152 rides. Ridership per day since 1997 has increased by nearly 400 rides per day, the equivalent of 10 additional 40 -foot busloads of people each day. Overall, system ridership through March, 2001, is up by 8.62% over 2000. Dial -A -Ride ridership is virtually unchanged (down .67%), Plymouth Flyer ridership is down 9.61%, and Metrolink ridership (rides on all the fixed route services) is up by 9.98%. Breaking down the Metrolink services, ridership on the Route 770 services (south and west of Medicine Lake) is up by 5.68%, ridership on the 790 services (north and east of Medicine Lake) is up by 12.30%, and ridership on the 740 services (reverse commute) is up by 7.47%. The new midday service seems to be catching on nicely. In February, the first full month of service, there were 251 midday passengers, and in March there were 424, an increase of 69%. We continue to get calls requesting information about the midday services, and I anticipate continued ridership increases. In addition, all of the new Plymouth Metrolink buses have been delivered and are being phased into service as drivers are trained in their operation. By the end of May all of the old buses should be retired. We will hold a ribbon cutting ceremony soon at City Hall and all of you will be invited to attend. If you have any questions please let me know. attachment F:\pw\Engineering\TRANSITIPMOL\2001\CC Memo re Ridmhip 3_101.doc i ro r d r. pa ci GIQ � x x b � N O i i i N N tAi w N O ch O 0 O ch O ANtD-d W -• Cb .P -J L" o a o O 0 0 0 0 t.
