HANUKKAH
December 20 - 27
3 3'10
Nnn lm H Shin
HANUKKAH, the "Festival of lights; is a celebration of the
Jewish faith tradition. This year Hanukkah starts at sun-
down on December 16 and ends on December 26, lasting
for eight days and nights.. Hanukkah means "dedication"
and is a celebration of the re -dedication of the Jerusalem
Temple. The Maccabees reclaimed the Temple and their
religious rights from Greek -Syrian ruler Antiochus IV. After
reclaiming the Temple, there was only enough purified oil
to kindle the light for a single day, but the light continued to
bum for eight days, thus the miracle of Hanukkah. The
most important Hanukkah tradition is lighting tie menorah
candle stand with nine branches) commemo,ating the oil
in the temple that burned for eight days. Other Hanukkah
traditions include gift giving, playing dreidel games, listen-
ing to Hanukkah music, and eating. foods cooked in oil.
CHRISTMAS
December 25
t HISTORICAL CHRISTMAS
Zachary and Elizabeth.,were an eld-
erly couple who were ,childless.
Zachary, a Jewish priest, was visited
by an angel who said he and Eliza-
beth would have a child. They did (John
the Baptist). Mary was also visited by
an angel who told her she too would
have a child through God's interven-
tion. The angel also told her that her
cousin Elizabeth was pregnant, and
Mary went to help her. Mary's be-
trothed, Joseph, was in a quandary,
since it was clear that Mary was preg-
nant, and he was not the baby's fa-
ther. Joseph was also visited by an
angel, who said Mary's child was of
God. Before her delivery, Joseph and
Mary went to Bethlehem to pay their
taxes. So many people gathered there
that there was no place for them to
stay other than in a barn. Joseph must
have agonized over so many of the
events in Jesus' life. For instance,
Jesus was born not in the cradle that
Joseph had crafted so lovingly but in.
a manger of hay. The family settled in
Nazareth, where Joseph taught Jesus

WHAT DO ANGELS LOOK LIXEP
Like the little old lady who returned your wallet yesterday.
Like the taxi driver who told you that your eves light up the world when you smile.
Like the small child who showed you the wonder in simple things.
Like the poor awn who offered to share his lunch with you.
Like the rich man who showed you that it really is al: possible, if only you believe.
Like the stranger who just happened to come along. When you had lost your way.
Like the friend who touched your heart, when you didn't think you had one.
Angels come in all sizes and shapes, all ages and skin types.
Some with freckles6 some with dimples. some with wrinkles, some without.
They come disguised as friends, enemies, teachem students, lovers and fools.
They dont take life too seriously, they travel light.
They leave no forwarding addrm they ask nothing in return.
They arc hard to find when your eves are closed, but when you choose to see, they are everywhere you look.
So, open your eyes and count all your Angels— for you arc truly blessed!

DATE: Decenber 2, 2003 for Housing and Redevelopment Authority Meeting of December 18,
2003
TO: Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority

FROM: J%WAousmg Programs Manager, through Anneur burt, Executive Director
SUBJECT: 2004 HRA Revised Budget
BACKGROUND:
At the November 2003 HRA meeting. the Board discussed reducing the HRH's 2004 levy and decided to
recommend an alternative levy of $593,395, an increase of $41,115 from 2003 or 7.48°/x. This would
reduce the proposed HRA levy by $63,954.
On December 1, 2003 the City Council held the Truth -in -Taxation hearing, which is required by state law
and additionally discussed the HRA's recommendation to reduce the 2004 HRA tax levy. The Council
follower the suggestion made by the HRA board and directed staff to lower the tax levy, which is
expected to be adopted by the Council on December 16, 2003.
Given this direction, stats has prepared a revised 2004 budget (attached) for the HRA to review and adopt.
The revised budget provides for a 7.48% increase in the HRA's tax levy to cover increases in
administrative costs and to adjust for inflation. Staffhas removed the requested increase for supplemental
program funding in the amount of $75,000. The only other difference to the previously adopted budget is
that personnel line items have been revised, as more current data is available.
I recommend that the Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority Board of Commissioners
adopt the revised 2004 HRA budget

ACTIVITIES AND OUTCOMES
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) General fund budget reflects funds collected primarily from the City's HRA tax levy. Supplemental funds are obtained
from housing bond fees and grants from state, federal, and metropolitan agencies. The primary use of the funds has been to subsidise the construction of (pre 1994) an J
subsidy of (post 1994) the Plymouth Towne Square senior citizens housing project. Primary activites include oversight of Plymouth Towne Square, parlic,paling in
metropolitan, county and stale housing programs, supervising and supporting HRA activities, administering city housing revenue bond issues, and planning for the future
housing needs of the city. Other activities include investigating, coordinating, and implementing programs to expand housing opportunilies and implementing the City's
economic development and redevelopment objectives.
A successful outcome wit! be continued management of Plymouth Towne Square within budget, and operating the project to provide attractive, comfortable and
affordable housing to low and moderate income senior citizens in Plymouth. Other successful outcomes will be implementing plans and programs which increase
opportunities for affordable housing, preserve and enhance the City's tax base, and increase employment opportunities in the City.
KEY BUDGET ISSUES
The 2004 budget proposes a $75,000 increase to expand the housing rehab loan program, and $10,000 would expand local programs in order to leverage federal and
state housing funds. The amount of $4,000 is proposed to market all housing programs.

Introduction
f rpose of dw shimity
In January 2003. the Family Housing Fund (FHF), the Greater Minnesota Housing Fund (GMHF)
and the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) retained BBC Research & Consulting (BBC)
to project housing needs in Minnesota in 2010.' This project is known as The Nast Decade of
Housing in Minnesota.
Using the bat available dam, the goal of this effort was to quantify the need for affordable housing in
each county in Minnesota from 2000 to 2010,. taking into amount housing marker activity already
completed between 2000 and 2002. Within the bounds of this goal. the research c fon had the
following objectives
Understand housing demand by income and by type of household in 2010;
Understand the likely success or failure of the housing market (public, private and
philanthropic) to mea that demand; and
Quantify the unmet need for affordable housing in 2010.
The information provided in u.is report will be helpful for a variety of stakeholders and policy
makers, including community leaders, state l gislawas, state agenttia, and housing providers
It is important to note that this study is the first of its kind in Minnesota and fdbaus a specific
research path. The study is intended to serve as a benchmark for further discussion, analysis and
research. The research team hopes that subsequent research efforts will build from this effort an
further clarify the need for low-income housing throughout Minnesota.
Repostle9 of Results
The Nan Decade of Housing in Minnesota conveys findings in a -Main Report (this document) and
seven regional reports The Main Report provides a discussion of findings at the Sate, Greater
Minnesota and Twin Cities Metropolitan Ann' levels. The seven regional reports provide in-depth
discussions about the nature and magnitude of low-income housing need specific to each region. The
regional reports follow the county groupings outlined in the Economic Vitality and Housing
Initiative (EVHI). a progrun adopted by the Minnesota Legislature in 1995 that links affordable
housing m economic development and redevelopment throughout the state. The county groupings
used in the EVHI.pe..gram are listed in Section II, page 11-6.
In addition an the tardy fuaden, the Matopolitan Council was key partner on that project.

How to Read This Doazesesst
This document consists of four distinct pares.
Section I presents an overall guide about the beat Decide of Housing in Minneson
project and admowledgemLemts for the many individuals who supported this effort.
Is Section U contains an in-depth discussion of the methodology used to develop the
housing model. including the assumptions and data used w produce the estimates in
this Main Report and each of the seven regional reports.
Section ID presents a summary of findings. It offers data on the size and mature of the
estimated need for affordable housing statewide, in the Twin Cities Men opoBun Ann
and in Gtesuer Minnesota.
Section IV (the heart of the report) is comprised of a collection of exhibits presenting
housing needs for the state, the Twin Cities Metropolitan Arm and Grater Minnesota.
Each exhibit tells a slightly different story about the likely need for affordable housing
in a particular place in 2010. While as& of the exhibits has foomoms that provide a
general understanding of the methodology, a review of the technical explanations in
Section II is recommended for a comprehensive understanding.
overview of Model
The housing model developed in this analysis uses current and pro*W demographic and
housing dam to evaluate the need for affordable housing throughout the state. Estimates were
based on demographic and housing market information gathered using the best available
data. These data sources included the 2000 Census. databases of subsidized units from
affordable housing funders and demographic projections from three sources: commercial
dam providers (PCensus and Clarhas). Minnesota Planning.and the Metropolitan Council.
To increase the quality of the findings, every effort was made to minimize assumptions. As a
result, projections about housing market ;actors such as the share of affordable units
provided by the private market are based on recent experience and reliable dam sources
Testing of the assumptions used in the model indicates consstenry with past housing market
trends.
The following paragraphs describe the modd in general terms. A detailed description of the dam
assumptions and calculations in each exhibit is provided in Section 11 of this report.
The model funs identifies households by income and type (family/non-family structure) in 2000 and
2010. These results can be found in Fa6ibit 1. This exhibit also shows die changes between die two
periods, which is critical to identifying the unmet need in 2010.
The model neva identifies, in fAbi Eit2, the structure of the low-income housing market in 2000.
This part of the model identifies the number of existing low-income households and how they are
housed (in subsidized units or private -market units). This part of the model ultimately reveals the

however, a category of that may be satisfied. through housing assistance programs rather than
new construction).
The heart of the housing model for the Near Decade of Housing in Minnesota project is presented in
ElubiLa. This part of the model serves to reveal unmet need for new low-income housing
specific*. the need for new unit construction) in 2010 by following this approach:
New Low-Income Households 2000-2010
minor
Expected Provision of Low-Income Units by the Private-Market by 2010
mime
Expected Provision of Low-Income Units by the Public and Philanthropic Same by 2010
Unmet Need for New law-Income Units in 2010
The model does not address the provision of housing by public and philanthropic entities in counties
and regions in 2010 bemuse there are no reliable projections at these smaller levels of geography.
lnsrcad, the model reports public and philanthropic provision at the larger state, Twin Cities
Metropolitan Arca and Greater Minnesota levels. This is explained in greater detail in Section 11, the
discussion of methodology.
FghlaiL4 shows an analysis of the unmet need in 2010 for new construction and housing assistance,
at the State, Greater Minnesota and the Twin Cities levels. This data is important because it will
help inform housing stakeholders about the needs for a variety of housing assistance programs
possible including new construction) at the broader aro levels of the sere.
Policy Proudpstion
It should be noted that the reader looking for policy prescriptions to address the need will not find
than in this report. This repots intentionally provides only an assessment of housing needs
throughout the state during the remainder of the decade. It is expected that policymakers, housing
providers and government officials will examine the report and consider its findings within the
context of policynuking decisions. Solutions to the affordable housing needs demonstrated in this
model could include-housing production, housing rehabilitation, individual income support, tenant-
based rental assistance, economic development to genote jobs with increased wages and others.
The most prominent example of this focus on an assessment of housing needs is in the decision not
to estimate housing need by tenure (owner versus renter) for 2010. Development of such an estimate
would have required the research team to understand the policy stance of local, regional and state-
level policymakers toward housing production and predict their decisions regarding acceptable levels
of subsidy for owner and rental housing in the future. While the model does show different classes of
households in need of affordable housing (i.e. seniors, families with children and all others), the type
Cort-burden ed hmaelaHs are throe who spend 30% or more of their household income on rekaed monthly owner or

Methodology
The exhibits included in Section III of this document present detailed dam on housing nods in
Minnesota through 2010. Each of these exhibits incudes a series of footnotes allowing reader to
identify the sources and primary assumptions used in their development. However, a move detailed
understanding of the methodology used to develop the housing model is helpful in accurately
interpreting the dare. This section provides an in-depth description of the an unptions, des and
dcvlations used in these exhibits:
Key As nWILioes
The housing model presented in this report nese on the following key assumptions. These
assumptions were used to inform the development of the model and should be considered in
inmpm . g findings.
Cnmlk8r. th,studes.
One of the underlying principles of this model is an assumption of 'comparative static' In other
words, the model asnmtes that over the near dam&. public, private and non- profit housing provident
will continue to respond to demand in much the same May as they do now. The private market will
provide housing to similar households as those it currently serves. The public and philanthropic
sectors will have similar priorities for responding to housing needs and will continue to spend their
resources in approanately the manna in which they arc currently spent.
One strong reason to use the comparative statics approach is to minimize the number of assumptions
in the housing model. Every assumption increases the complexity of interactions within a model, and
consequecdy increases the potential error produced. It is pteferable to use the fixest assumptions
possible. while not hesitating m make sound assumptions when they arc requited.
In addition to minimising the number of assumptions, additional reasons to use die comparative
statics approach are the historical consistency of private market provision of housing and the
uncertainty inherent in forecasting changL: in the provision of rrbsidired housing.
The relative share of low-income housing prodded by the private market has stayed. relatively
constant ova the past dam&. This can be verified by considering the percent of total households in
each county that wen coat burdened in 1990 and :000, as well as the relationships between median
household incomes and median housing prices. These two measures are strong indicators of the
degree to which the private housing market it providing affordable homing.
BBC Rissma4 At CoNsuxTnu SECTION U. PAGE t
the fact that the proportion of eosnburdened households has reeuined stable regardless of
population increases or decreases in every Minnesom.eounty iodiat - that the private market is
provi %affordable housing to a consistent share of the population. Stable shares of the population
ate (and are not) adequately served by the housing market over the decade.
The ratio benseen median household income and median housing prigs is another strong indicator
of the degree to which private market is providiog affordable housing. It portrays the degree to which
housing price have shifted in relationship to incomes, and potentially may have served only
particular segments of the population. The fact that this ratio has been consistent over the deme
indicates tint the private housing mar:et is seeing low-income households to the same degree as it
did in 1990. This ratio changed by leu than 2 pe cane in every county over the decade, with most
counties experiencing changes of far teas than 1 percent. These patterns indicate condstenr private
market activity actma a variety of economic environments.
Given the consistency of private marker provision of affordable housing, the rnodd assumes that a
stable percentage of low-income households will be affordably F.oused by the private market. To
arrive at this percentage, the tool number of low-income houselhokh in each county is first reduced
1. The number of cost -burdened hou:ehdds who, by definition, are not affordably
housed; and
2. The number of households -in subsidized units who are not served by the privare
market.
The remainder are households served by the private market. The percent of all households in the
county represet cid by this teaainder is used In both 2000 and 2010 to estimate private market
provision of affordable housing.
VPhile the private marker is assumed to servethe same proportion of low -inosine households over the
decade. public and philanthropic funders were assumed to have a fixed capacity to fund subsidized
units (referred to u the 'pipeline in this document). The ability of organizations to deliver
subsidized units depends on the resources available to them; tF.is depends on public policy and
private charitable decisions.
The pipeline of espeecre 'public and philanthropic units was determined by reviewing databases of
funded units from 2000-2002 (a dutayear period) provided by the Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD), the Grater Minnesota Housing Fond (GMHF), Habitat for
Humanity and the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). These databases were reviewed
auensivdy to eliminate the double counting of unks funded by multiple o ganiatiom This process
determined how many units could be expected m be funded going f reward through available
resources.
BBC Rssuma & CoNsuLywc, SECTION n, PAGE 2
To supplement this work, key person interviews were eonducted.with representatives of other
jurisdictions that recdve direct federal funding and with major subsidized housing providers.
Adjustments were made to reflect projections of Wtum funding (2003 and after).
Due to the dEculty of allocating units to particular counties, cite pipeline for subsidized housing was
only calculated at the Statewide, Twin Cities Metropolitan Area and Greater Minresota levels. Since
funding allocation decisions at the county level are unpredictable, the most conservative approach
was to quantify the recent pipeline at the throe largL u= levels, but not move to the county or
regional keel.
The model assumed that future funding for low-income units by household type (families witti
children, seniors and all other households) at the State, Greater Minnesota and Twin Cities Metro
Am levels would follow unmet need. To the extent that public policy or private donavion decisions
change markedly in the coming yeas, the pipeline will grow or shrink and the households in need of
affordable housing forecast in this model will increase or decrease.
aWatemient of
The methodology contained in this report does not explicitly measure the amount of housing needed
to replace obsolete units, those that may be demolished or those that may be lost due to gentrification
during the period under study. Measuring housing need along these lines is fraught with pitfalls for
the followine seasons:
a There are no reliable local area estimates of obsolete housing (and whether it is
occupied or not);
Tle U.S. Cents does not make definitive statements on unit obsolescence but instead
orL measures certain physical conditions that mould be associated with obsolescence;
At the time the study was conducted. available Census dam did not allow for the
identification of the overlap between affordable units and those in poor condition.
leading to the danger of double counting if poor condition units were identified;
There is no dear say to determine if a demolished unit was affordable or not;
e Malting assumptions about units lost to gentrification invoh.s anticipating which at
mi
may of interest to developers and homebuyers in the future. which is difficult to
predict.
DWInitbm of Loawlncouee HosnehW&
To define low-income households across the state, the housing model takes into amount the variance
in incomes, housing prices and purchasing power between most of Ginter Minnesota and the Twin
Cities. BBC initially considered using one cutoff point. 60% or 809E of median family income, &r all
areas of thestate since both 60% and 80% of median income arc federal definitions of low-income.
commonly used in the administration of HUD progrms. However, this approach did not
realistically reflect the coat of new construction.
BBC WEAaCH 8 CONSULTING SECTION n, PACA 3
The median family income thrsughout most of Gram Minnesota is significantly lower than that in
the Twin Cities. Simply def ring a low-income household at the same cutoff percentage (e.& 60% of
income) throughout the state would mbrrtesent the number of households that indeed have
difficulty finding affordable housing. For example, if the model had at the bw-income attoff at
6096 of median income, it would have left out many households in the lowest-inamm counties of
Grata Minnesota who technically earn above the cutoff, but still earn well below what is needed to
afford newly constructed unsubsidized housing. If the model had set the low-income cutoff at 80%
of median income. it would have included many Twin Cities arca households who are technically
defined as'bw-income (below the 80% cutoff), but for whom ample, affordable marker-nue
options exist.
The final version of the model uses a 'blended' rate to define low-income households across
Minnesota: those filling below 60% of HUD median family income in the Twin Cities and those
below 8096 of median family-mccwne throughout Gmmr Minnesota
Daft Used
The exhibits presented in this report depend on five primary data sources:
a U.S. Census data for 2000 were used for all of the 2000 exhibits, and 1990 and 2000
U.S. Census data were used in confirming the response of the private market in
providing low-income housing;
a Databases provided by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
GMHF, Habitat for Humanity and MHFA were used to quantify the number of

As with any madding ezercise. the estimates presented in. this report we subject to certain limitations.
All models are abs rocdons of reality limited by the available data. and ro modd an pueclsdy mirror
the actual functioning ota housing market. These limitations have a number of effects on the
estimate provided in this report.
First, data is only provided at the county level. potentially hiding trends at the sub -county level. For
example, some rural counties will show no need for new housing in 2010 due TO declining
population. However, specific cities within these counties may have a need for new housing for one
or more household types bemuse of population gains (e.g. in -migration of migrant workers) or
changing resident demographics (e.g. aging in place). In these axes, different measures of housing
need between the county and local level ase reasonable, and neither estimate is necessarily wrong.
This situation simply acknowledges the fact that housing markets ate often very localized.The
research team expects that. the figures in this report will be used to support discussions of housing
provitiwr at the broader level (e.g. county and ng on). but that decisions regarding need within a
municipality will be based on local area market research.
Second, it is impossible to accurately predict the geographic distribution of public and philanthropic
resources at small levels of geography. Therefore, new-uL.idired development projections are
reported only at the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. Greater Minnesota and Statewide levels.
Third, a number of factors may also serve to understate the need for affordable housing. Households
that are not coat -burdened but are living in housing that is in poor condition or overcrowded are not
measured in this study. At the time the study was completed, it was not possible to assess the overlap
between poor condition, overcrowded and cost -burdened households using Cesssus data. Given the
limitations of the dare, a conservative approach was taken and only cost -burdened hous"ds were
considered in the mWel. In addition, housing units lost to gentrification or demolition are also not
estimated in this analysis, due to the lack of reliable demolition data and the difficulty in predicting
gentrification. These limitations combine TO make the estimates presented in this report a
conservative picture of affordable housing needs in Minnesota
Finally, a note on how homelessness was considered in this study. The estimated housing needs of
Minnesoas homeless population are included in the 'cost -burdened' category. However. homeless
households are very difficult to count. The study estimated this need using the most recant data
available from the Minnesota Depa-mens of Haman Services Quarterly S! titer Survey. This is a
very conservative estimate of hom.,ussness, as it only includes than utilizing shdws on a given night.
More complete information on the overall need for housing to serve the homeless will. be available in
the 2003 Wilder Research Center survey of homeless adults and children in Minnesota. expected to
be released in early 2004.

Exhibit 1 fust presents the number of households in seven: income categories in 2000. The mode
uses 2000 HUD Median Family Income for the seven -county Twin Cities Metropolitan aeon for each
of the Mesio Area counties. For each of the remaining Grave Minnesota counties, the model use
the median family income that HUD definer for that specific county. Census data were
supplemented by quarterly shelter survey data provided by the Minnesota Department of Human
Services to incorporate homeless households that are not counted by the Comm
Households in each income category in Exhibit I were subdivided into three categories: family
households, senior households and non -senior households without children under 18. This division
was completed using a variety of cross -tabulations from the 2000 Census. These categories of housing
types correspond with a variety of housing programs and potential housing solutions.
The second part of Exhibit 1 includes projections for 2010 following the same income breakdown as
in 2000. In the 80 Grow Minnesota counties, the household projections W.Rect averages of dam
provided by MN Planning and two commada data providers. Claritas and PCensus. In tht seven -
county Twin fides Metro Area, total households ware projected using Metropolitan Council
forecasts. and were then distributed into income and household type categories using the averages
from other resources.
BBC RisimcN At CONsuLnNG SECTION U. PAGE 6
A two-step method was used to allocate the projected housdu l:& into groups of household types.
First. PCauus forecasts of households by age were used to identify senior and non -senior household:.
The second step used 2000 data to split remaining households into households with and without
Children under the age of 18.
Finally. Exhibit I condudes by subtracting the 2000 Census dam from the 2010 psellons to show
the change ova the decade.
Exhibit 2. The structure of the lour-Ineame houslnn wserket In 2000.
The second exhibit calculates the private market's success at housing low-income households in 2000.
As in Exhibit 1, data are provided for all households, family households, senior households and non -
senior households without Children under 18. Cost -burdened households and subsidized units are
subtracted from total households to arrive at the share of affordable housing that is provided by the
private market. Throughout the model, households "housed al%rdably by the private market'
indicate non -cost -burdened, low-income households that are not living in subsidized housing.
Although these are low-income households, they have suooessfidly found housing they an afford in
the private market.
Subsidized units for each household type (family, senior, otha) were estimated using a variety of
databases. In many ries, these databases identified the target population for each property. When
such information was not available, non -senior units were allocated to family or non -family
households by assuming that units with two or more bedrooms were for families and one -bedroom or
studio units were for non -family households. Using these data and assumptions, relatively few units
were identified as targeted to non -family households. However, it is possible that non -family
households could. be living in "Family' units.
The cost -burdened household tallies are taken from the U.S. Census and supplemented with
homeless households identified tl:rough qua.-tedy state shdta counts. The calculations in Exhibit 2
produce estimates of the proportion of I:ouseholds served by the private market and the proportion of
households not housed affordably by any provider.
Exhibit 3 projects the total number of new low-income households that will be in need of affordable
housing in 2010, based on growth during the decade. The calculations start with new low-income
households that arc expected to be added during the decade in each arm. by household type. Certain
counties show "ties in the overall number of bra -income households (or among certain household
types) mirroring expected dedines in the larger population. In these aces. Exhibit 3 will show
ne,;ative.hange numbers encased in parentheses (). Negative population gmwth does not necessarily
indicate that housinir investment is not needed. In such counties, rehabilitation and/or preservation
may be key strategies, tather than new construction.
The exhibit then determines the number of low-income. households that are not expected to be
served by the private mar' -et by 2010. This is accomplished by subtracting. the expected private
market provision of low-income housing in 2010 from new low-income households that are expected
during the deader
BBC RE5ImcN It CONSULTING :SECTION 14 PAGE 7
If the number of low-income households is predicted to decrease across all household theptypes,
model assumes no new private market provision for the love-income market. However, in some
counties, the number of certain types of low-income households (e.g.. senior households) is predicted
to decease, while die number of other types of low-income households (e.g.. families with children c
18) is expected to ;ted In these cases, the model does not address potential shifting of units
between different household types.
For example, if the number of senior households decreases, the model does not assume that units
vacated by those households would be suitable for families with children. While same units maybe
acceptable for all household types, quantifying the number of those units is beyond the scope of this
study. As a result. some counties may show net household loss but still have a need for new units
targeted to certain household types.
At. the State, Grater Minnesota and Twin Cities Metropolitan Ara levels. Exhibit 3 provides a
deeper level ofanalysis. one that illuminates the true need for low-income housing during the decade
due to increasing numbers of low-income households. At the bottom of the Exhibit, the model
factors in the provision of low-income housing expected by the public and philanthropic sectors
during the donde. After considering this production source, the new low-income households that
remain in one of these three lager areas are truly unsupported; they find a home neither in the
private market, not in newly-built subsidized units. Ter ie mmed unmet need for new low-income

F This dubit a Wyatt, unmet need by income level and household type at the State, Greater
Minnesota and Twin Cities Mesmpolitan Area levels. This exhibit works off of two sources: 1) the
unmet need for new low-income housing units in 2010 that the model determined in Exhibit 3; and
2) the con-burdened. love-income households in 2000 that the model described in Exhibit 2.
The former demand source could be characterized as demand for newly-constructed units that will
emerge during the decade. The latter source of demand could be characterized as an entrenched,
structural, housing-macket problem that could be solved by a variety of programs, just one of which
could be new construction. Households that were cost-burdened in 2000 (and still presumably are),
were technically housed, but were in need of some sort of assistance to relieve a high-cost burden.
This relief could come in a variety of unit- or household-based subsidy programs, among other
solutions

Summary of Findings
The.rurpose of the Next Decade of Housing in Minnesota study is in quan-* the need for
affordable housing in Minnesota from 2000 to 2010-71w study was completed by BBC Research &
Consulting (BBC). an independent firm based in Denver that speSdizes in.housing market analysis.
The sthdy was funded by a collaborative of public and philanthropic organizations that provide
resources for affordable housing development'
Key Condudons
During the past several years, die issue of affordable.housing has become inatssiogly prominent in
Minnesota. The study indicates that many.houstholds will continue to have difficulty finding
affordable housing during the nes decade.
a Almost 300,000 lovwincome households are -living in unaffordable housing in
Minnesota.' For the one-third of dose households that earn less dun 30% of median
income. this housing cost burden often fomes difficult choices between housing and
f other necessities.
Thea will be a shortfall of 33,000 affordable housing units for low-inmme:households
by 2010 in Minnesota. This shortfall will occur despite incased private market
provision of housing and significant public and philanthropic contributions for
affordable hot sing.

The reaarch team believes the study presents an ac urate picture of housing needs in Minnesota.
However, there are some important data limitations that affect the study resuht:
The estimated housing needs of Minnesota's homeless population are included in the
cost burdened' category. However, homeless households ase very difficult to count.
The study estimated this rued Itsing the most recent data available fiom the statewide
Quarterly Shelter Survey. This is.a very conservative sstip ate of homelesme, as it
only includes those utilizing shelters on a given night. More complete information on
the overall need for housing to serve the homeless will be available in the 2003 Vedder
Research Center survey of homehm adults and children in Mumeaota, acpated to be
released in early 2004.
An analysis of housing units lose to demolition and attrition, as well as units that are in
poor condition or overcrowded, is not included in the an*. Good statewide data was
not available, so the researchers excluded these factors in the calculation of housing
need. As a result, the study presents a more conservative picture of housing need.
It is impossible to predict the level of public and philanthropic resources available to
each county during the deader As a result. the actual shortfall of affordable housing
after provision of subsidized units) can only be calculated at the statewide and Taro
Cities Metropolitan Ann and Greater Minnesota levels rather than for individual
counties.
The study only provides data at the county kvd, whicA may mask trends at the sub -
county (ie., dry) level. For example, some nual counties may show no housing need
due to declining populations, but particular cities within a county may -- — ce
gmw th and need addidonal housing. In these cases, local arm market research will be
required to make decisions about the level of housing need and the provision of public
and philanthropic resources.
Finally, the study does not attempt to predict policy changes or funding priorities
during the coming decade. It does not offer funding recommendations. such as the type
of subsidized housing (e.g., owner versus renal) that shoud be provided to address the
identified shortfall. It is the 'responsibility of a variety of decision mrkers at the load.

DRAFT
TO: Metropolitan Council
FR: Association of Metropolitan Municipalities
RE: 2030 Regional Development Framework
Thank you for the opportunity to provide our comments on the public hearing draft of the 2030
Regional Development Framework. The Association of Metropolitan Municipalities is
composed of 75 cities from around the seven -county metropolitan area, which are home to
approximately 90 percent of the region's citizens.
After closely following your work developing the draft Framework and discussing it with our
member cities, the Association of Metropolitan Municipalities offers the following comments
for your consideration.
2030 Regional Development Framework
Overall, the draft Framework appears to be a seep in the right direction. Our member cities are
encouraged by the general tone of the document and its focus on the Council's core mission
71te draft Framework is more succinct, more flexible and seems to offer more collaborative
overtures than previous planning documents published by the Metropolitan Council.
Our members support the MUSA approach contained in the document, which moves our region
away from growth based on outwardly moving concentric circles and toward a more flexible
staging process that provides greater opportunity for local control and input. We also support
the Council's plans to leave decisions about the long-term protection of agricultural lands up to
local officials.
In talking with our members about the Framework, they have also identified four major
shortcomings of the document.
1) Redevelopment Expectations
The draft Framework calls for 30 percent of the forecasted growth to be accommodated through
redevelopment and reinvestment in the already developed portions of the region. This is a bold
goal, which our member cities largely support — in principle. Redevelopment allows our frilly
developed communities to adapt to changing consumer preferences, expand their tax base and
maintain their vitality. It also allows the region to take advantage of the extensive public
investment in infrastructure that already exists in these areas.
However, we continue to hear concerns from our fully developed cities about the availability of
the tools and resnurces necessary to meet this goal. While Council representatives say that this
is only a modest increase from what is currently taking place and the draft Framework clearly
outlines a preference for letting the ` market" function, the feedback we are receiving from the
individual cities actually expected to carry this out is much different.
For example, the City of Robbinsdale tells us that during the decade of the 1980's they
experienced a redevelopment boom, which resulted in the addition of 500 new households in
ten years. They were able to achieve that as a result of optimum conditions — broad and
flexible TIF authority and political leadership that was willing to do whatever it took to get the
projects done. Today, you are asking the City of Robbinsdale to plan for more than 600 new
households a decade, for three straight decades — yet the costs are higher, the conditions are
more challenging, and the tools available to the city have declined.
As a group, our member cities want to grow and redevelop. But it isn't going to be easy. It is
going to take time, effort, incentives and investments. As the years go by, and the easier places
to redevelop are completed, the remaining opportunities will be increasingly challenging. The
market alone is likely to provide some level of redevelopment, especially along the riverfronts
or next to key amenities. But the market alone will not achieve the kind of widespread
redevelopment that these forecasts call for. Regional plans and policies need to recognize the
challenge that lies ahead, as well as the additional investments that will be needed to
accomplish this goal.
2) Transportation Investments
The drag Framework recognizes the need to enhance transportation choices and slow the
growth in congestion. for the sake of our economy and our daily quality of life. However, it
stops short of providing a plan or strategy for meeting this need.
Twenty-five years ago, sewers were the growth challenge for this metropolitan area. With
some out-of-the-box thinking, bold public policies and a little political risk taking, we have
now reached the point where the Metropolitan Council's environmental services are widely
recognized as a successful regional system, with an established and stable funding source, that
keeps pace with growth and allows infrastructure investments to be coordinated with planned
development.
But the term "urban services" must be recognized as more than simply wastewater treatment.
Today we need the same leadership for our transportation system that our wastewater treatment
system has benefited from over the past thirty years. This metropolitan area has a compelling
and urgent need for investment in both roads and transit; tailoring the appropriate mode and
investment to individual neighborhoods, cities, corridors and subregions.
As. it stands today, the draft Framework is lacking a plan to provide the full range of urban
services and regional investments needed to accommodate the forecasted population growth.
For example, the Framework forecasts call for the three Dakota County cities of Lakeville,
Farmington, and Rosemount to grow by 89,000 people by the year 2030 — that's almost ten
percent of all of the growth projected for the region. 'Yet an examination of MnDOTs
investment plans for the metropolitan area fails to identify a single road or highway in Dakota
County that is scheduled for improvement before the year 2025.
The population and household forecasts contained in this document will bring significant
growth and development to individual cities and entire sub -regions of the metropolitan area
Without a coordinated regional strategy for transportation, and the funding mechanisms to
implement it, this growth will only bring more conge-:ion, increased limitations on economic
growth and a declining quality of life for the residents of this region.
3) Coordination with State Policy, Collaboration with State Agencies
Thirdly, the draft Framework needs to give more attention to impacts state fiscal policy and
state agency policies will have on this region's ability to accommodate the forecasted growth.
State policy on issues such as local government aid and levy limits are working in direct
opposition to the Council's efforts to accommodate an additional million people by the. year
2030. How are communities such as Lakeville supposed to accommodate 20,000 new
households, if state imposed levy limits won't allow them to access that new taxbase? Current
state policy severely limits growing cities' ability to raise the revenue necessary to hire the
additional police offers or plow the additional city streets needed to serve new households.
Meanwhile, the loss of state aids is forcing many frilly developed cities to close recreation
facilities, cut back on park maintenance and reduce other quality of life services, at the same
time the Council is expecting them to attract thousands of new residents.
Beyond the fiscal issues, there are policy and permit issues. The Metropolitan Council is
asking the City of Prior Lake to plan for approximately 9,000 new households by 2030, yet
DNR requirements are restricting their ability to dig a new well. If the Council wants to work
with local governments and strengthen collaboration, then it must give serious consideration to
working within the administration and with metro -area legislators to resolve these
contradictions.
4) Links to Adjacent County Growth
Finally, we would urge the Council to go further in addressing the inter -relatedness of the
seven -county area and the wider metropolitan region. Forecasting population, household and
employment trends cannot be done in isolation from the adjacent counties, nor can planning for
investments in transportation and the other regional systems. Our member cities continue to
note that the legitimacy and usefulness of the planning taking place within the seven -county
area is increasingly questionable when done in isolation from the wider metropolitan region.
