Executive summary
Title: Resolution amending Beltline Station cooperative construction agreement and contract
for private development between EDA and Beltline Mixed Use LLC - Ward 1
Recommended action: Motion to adopt EDA resolution approving an amendment to the
cooperative construction agreement with the Metropolitan Council for the Green Line
Extension Beltline Boulevard Station park & ride facility and an amendment to the contract for
private development between the EDA and Beltline Mixed Use LLC.
Policy consideration: Does the EDA approve the proposed agreement amendments to increase
Metropolitan Council grant funding for the Beltline Boulevard Station park & ride facility?
Summary: The EDA originally approved an agreement with the Metropolitan Council on Nov. 2,
2020, to establish the terms and specifications for constructing 268 public park and ride stalls
within the Beltline Boulevard Station parking ramp. On July 24, 2023, the EDA approved a
redevelopment agreement authorizing a Sherman Associates affiliate to construct this ramp on
the EDA's behalf. Subsequently, on May 19, 2025, the EDA approved amendments to both the
redevelopment agreement and the cooperative construction agreement to increase the
available funding.
The current proposed amendment further increases the Metropolitan Council's financial
contribution by $180,660, raising the total "not to exceed" cap from $3,484,167 to $3,664,827.
These new funds will cover additional ramp signage required by Metro Transit. Staff, the EDA’s
legal counsel and Sherman Associates have reviewed this amendment and recommend its
approval.
Financial or budget considerations: None. The EDA acts strictly as a fiscal pass-through. The
additional Metropolitan Council funds will be received by the EDA and utilized to reimburse
Sherman Associates and the builder for eligible costs. There is no financial impact on the EDA
budget.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing safe, reliable and well-
maintained infrastructure and neighborhoods that connect people and places with an emphasis
on walking, biking and transit.

EDA Resolution No. 26-___
Approving an amendment to cooperative construction agreement
with Metropolitan Council and an amendment to amended and
restated contract for private development with Beltline Mixed Use
LLC
Whereas, the St. Louis Park Economic Development Authority (the “authority”) and
Beltline Mixed Use LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “developer”), previously
entered into an amended and restated contract for private development, dated May 19, 2025,
as amended by the first amendment to amended and restated contract for private
development, dated Jan. 20, 2026 (collectively, the “original development agreement”),
pursuant to which the developer agreed to construct a multi-phase mixed-use development on
certain property in the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota (the “city”), including an approximately
571-space parking ramp with approximately 1,850 square feet of commercial space (the
“parking ramp”) including 268 spaces to be dedicated as public transit park and ride spaces and
a driver restroom (the “public parking”); and
Whereas, pursuant to the original development agreement, the authority agreed to
provide certain funds for the public parking subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set
forth therein including a grant from the Metropolitan Council in an amount not to exceed
$3,484,167 (the “Met Council grant”); and
Whereas, the authority and the Metropolitan Council entered into a cooperative
construction agreement, dated Dec. 15, 2020, as amended by the amendment number one to
Metropolitan Council contract no. 20I052 cooperative construction agreement, dated March
31, 2021, the amendment number two Metropolitan Council contract no. 20I052 cooperative
construction agreement, effective as of July 24, 2023, and the amendment number three
Metropolitan Council contract no. 20I052 cooperative construction agreement, effective as of
June 9, 2025 (collectively, the “original cooperative construction agreement”); and
Whereas, the authority and the developer have received proposals for the fabrication
and installation of Metro Transit signage within the parking ramp, and the authority and the
Metropolitan Council have determined the need to further amend the original cooperative
construction agreement to include the installation of such signage and to increase the ramp
contribution (as defined in the cooperative construction agreement) by an amount equal to the
actual cost of fabricating and installing the signage (from an amount not to exceed $3,484,167
to an amount not to exceed $3,664,827); and
Whereas, such amendment to the original cooperative construction agreement
necessitates a corresponding change to the amount of the Met Council grant described in the
amendment of the original development agreement; and
Whereas, there have been presented to the board of commissioners of the authority
(the “board”) forms of (i) the amendment number four Metropolitan Council contract no.

original cooperative construction agreement for the purposes described herein; and (ii) the
second amendment to amended and restated contract for private development (the “amended

Executive summary
Title: Recognition of Westwood Hills Nature Center junior naturalists
Recommended action: Summer junior naturalist coordinator Claire Lang and naturalist Becky
McConnell are present to recognize the junior naturalists for their service this summer.
Policy consideration: Not applicable.
Summary: This summer, there were 45 youth volunteers that served in the junior naturalist
program. Collectively, they volunteered for over 1,700 hours. Staff strive to include youth of all
backgrounds and remove barriers to participation.
The junior naturalist program has been part of Westwood Hills Nature Center for 35 years. The
goal of the program is to offer 7th – 12th grade youth an opportunity for community service that
fosters responsibility, initiative, teamwork and leadership skills. By volunteering in a
cooperative, goal-oriented and engaging work environment, the junior naturalists gain
important job skills, knowledge and experience.
The junior naturalist program is one of two teen volunteer programs in the Parks and
Recreation Department. The junior naturalists assist the naturalists with camps providing
valuable support with nature hikes, games, activities, crafts, set-up and clean-up. This year,
they helped serve over 500 summer camp participants. Because of the junior naturalists’
dedication and willingness to serve, summer camp participants’ experience is safer and more
engaging. Additionally, junior naturalists maintain the beautiful upper water garden and
waterfall area, fill bird feeders, collect invertebrates for the exhibit aquarium and take care of
the nature center’s education animals.
The junior naturalists are rewarded with this special recognition, a letter of recommendation
and a celebration in appreciation of their service.
Financial or budget considerations: Not applicable.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to being a city that delivers reliable

Title: Proclamation observing Women’s Equality Day
Recommended action: Mayor to read proclamation observing Women’s Equality Day 2026
Policy consideration: None.
Summary: Women’s Equality Day commemorates the 19th amendment to the United States
Constitution, which opened the door for women’s right to vote. This change came after
decades of activism by women across the country demanding the same right to vote as men.
Although this marked great progress for women, it did not include Indigenous women, Black
women and other women of color. This day calls us to celebrate the progress made and
remember there is still more work to do towards full equality for all women.
Financial or budget considerations: None.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to being an inclusive, equitable and
vibrant city where everyone feels safe and experiences a strong sense of belonging.

Title: Proclamation observing Women’s Equality Day
Proclamation
“Women’s Equality Day 2026”
Whereas, Women’s Equality Day marks the 19th amendment to the United States
Constitution and its significance to the struggle for women’s rights; and
Whereas, women across the United States fought for the 19th amendment, changing the
political landscape by writing women’s right to vote into law; and
Whereas, this right to vote did not extend to all women. Non-white women were
denied this progress through state laws, violence and other forms of racist barriers to vote; and
Whereas, recognizing women’s Equality Day means also recognizing the imperfect
history of voting rights in our country that has barred women’s right to vote based on race,
language and cultural identity; and
Whereas, St. Louis Park celebrates the women making a difference in political and civic
life of our city; and
Whereas, this day calls for a celebration of the women across our city, state, country
and world that show up and advocate for equality in the workplace, healthcare, childcare,
parenting and much more; and
Whereas, challenging gender discrimination and all forms of oppression honors
Women’s Equality Day and contributes to our strategic priority of being an inclusive, equitable
and vibrant city,
Now therefore, let it be known that the mayor and city council of the City of St. Louis
Park, Minnesota, hereby observe Women’s Equality Day 2026 in our community.
Wherefore, I set my hand and cause the Great Seal
of the City of St. Louis Park to be affixed this 17th
day of August, 2026.

Discussion Item
1. 2027 Base & Operating budget discussion
Ms. Keller thanked the department directors, managers and finance staff for their work in
preparing the recommended budget. She outlined the framework she used to evaluate
proposals: whether a request was in response to something that is mandated, whether a cost
was already being borne by the organization without a corresponding budget, whether it
advanced a strategic priority and whether it improved public service or organizational
effectiveness. Ms. Keller noted these were balanced against organizational and fiscal capacity
as well as council feedback received earlier in the process around maintaining excellent services
while minimizing levy impacts. She emphasized that all figures presented were point-in-time
and would continue to shift through the fall.
Ms. Keller introduced Ms. Stephens, finance director.
Ms. Stephens explained the policy consideration before the council was whether to support
moving forward with the 2027 general fund budget recommendations.
Ms. Stephens reviewed the full budget calendar:
• July 20, 2026 was a special study session presentation that covered the 2025 Annual
Comprehensive Financial Report.
• Aug. 3, 2026 – this evening’s discussion covers the proposed general fund budget

Ms. Stephens noted that informal council feedback received in spring 2026 shaped the budget
development process. That feedback emphasized balancing service levels with levy impacts,
identifying cost efficiencies and preserving flexibility for emerging needs.
Ms. Stephens presented the non-personnel operating comparison across all general fund
departments: administrative services, communications and technology, community
development/building and energy, engineering, fire, parks and recreation, police and public
works. The overall year-over-year increase was 0.7%. She explained that the -12% variance in
administrative services reflected a reallocation of legal service invoices to the police
department and a $50,000 social service programming budget to community development, in
both cases moving budgets to the departments actually overseeing the work. The -7% variance
in communications and technology reflected items still being transitioned into the technology
fund. Community development and building and energy were consolidated under a single
umbrella for 2027, and the 13% increase shown in police largely reflected the administrative
services reallocation rather than new spending.
Ms. Keller clarified that this slide did not include personnel costs, covering only operational
items such as supplies, contracts and consultant fees.
Council Member Engelking observed that holding costs nearly flat across departments in a
rising-cost environment demonstrated significant fiscal discipline.
Ms. Keller noted that the 2025 audit had left an unallocated cash balance of approximately
$160,000 — a meaningful reduction from prior years — and emphasized that some buffer
remained necessary given the variance inherent in a general fund budget of more than $50
million.
Ms. Stephens reported a projected 4.5% increase in personnel costs, primarily reflecting salary
adjustments and normal compensation increases. Benefits were projected to decrease slightly
due to favorable contract negotiations, not reductions to employee benefits.
Council Member Brausen asked who was responsible for the health benefits contract
negotiations, noting that the city had secured an 11% increase two years earlier when others
saw 20% increases, and was now projecting a decrease in costs. Ms. Keller credited Ms.
Vorpahl, who negotiates on behalf of the city with the assistance of a benefits broker.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 4b) Page 3
Title: City council special study session meeting minutes of August 3, 2026
Ms. Stephens presented 2027 one-time spending requests that would be funded entirely
through 2026 savings from vacant positions and programming changes, with no levy impact.
These included:
• a wellness committee initiative under administrative services;
• digital accessibility compliance support, data streamlining and governance and a
network and security administrator under communications and technology;
• a comprehensive plan update and climate action plan amendment under community
development;
• an HVAC controls update through facilities;
• and a citywide strategic plan project implementation fund.
Council Member Budd asked about the strategic plan line item and whether the cost was
comparable to prior cycles. Ms. Keller explained that the city conducts visioning every 10 years
but will update the strategic plan approximately every three years. She noted that staff had
been working for several months on goals and strategies for the upcoming three-year period
and that the budget requested is anticipated to cover consultant fees and one-time
implementation costs. She expected to return in a future year with more refined needs that
could include staffing or other expenses.
Ms. Stephens walked through each department's ongoing spending recommendations.
Under Administrative Services, she presented background checks through a third-party vendor
to replace the current police department dispatch process, which lacks access to all states,
preventing complete out-of-state applicant checks. She also presented an ergonomics budget
to fund chair replacements across the city and a wellness committee ongoing allocation.
Under communications and technology, she presented a Copilot generative Artificial
Intelligence (AI) license covering approximately half of the city's full-time employees, intended
to standardize and secure AI tool use across the organization. She also presented password
management software to consolidate staff onto a single secure platform, the ongoing cost for
the network and security administrator position (with the one-time startup cost funded
separately through 2026 savings) and an accessibility tools budget to formalize an existing
closed captioning expenditure that had not previously been budgeted.
Ms. Keller noted that the network and security administrator was planned as a mid-year hire,
meaning the 2027 cost would be partial. The full-year ongoing cost in 2028 would be $175,000,
partially offset by reduced vendor costs.
Under community development, Ms. Stephens presented funding for a housing intern.
Council Member Budd expressed support for the housing intern position and asked whether it
would remain an intern role on an ongoing basis. Ms. Barton confirmed that for the foreseeable
future, the position would remain an internship, noting that the administrative reimbursement
from the “Bring It Home” voucher program was unlikely to increase significantly. An intern
could also effectively serve as a housing navigator, helping residents understand city programs
and connecting them with county, St. Louis Park Emergency Program (STEP) or state resources.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 4b) Page 4
Title: City council special study session meeting minutes of August 3, 2026
Council Member Brausen asked whether the role would be year-round part time. Ms. Barton
confirmed it would be approximately 20 hours per week throughout the year.
Under parks and recreation and facilities, Ms. Stephens presented a temporary staffing salary
budget for facilities to reduce overtime during peak periods and a position reclassification from
custodian to Public Service Worker to better meet current operational demands.
Under police, Ms. Stephens presented two items: reinstating two sworn officer positions that
had been converted to civilian roles earlier in the year, and an increase to the Community
Service Officer (CSO) budget to expand the officer pipeline.
Council Member Farris asked how the sworn officer proposals related to earlier commitments
made to the police department regarding staffing.
Mayor Mohamed recalled that the earlier conversation involved converting two positions to
civilian roles with the intent to eventually restore sworn officer funding and noted that facility
improvements discussed at that time were not part of this budget.
Ms. Keller confirmed the 2027 proposal would restore the sworn complement to where it stood
at the start of 2026 while retaining the two new civilian positions and would also expand CSO
capacity.
Council Member Budd asked whether the department was short-staffed by more than these
two officers.
Mr. Nadem responded that current sworn staffing stood at 57, that the department was in a
hiring process aimed at reaching full strength of 60. Adding the two proposed positions would
bring the authorized complement to 62 as of Jan. 1, 2027.
Council Member Baudhuin noted he had understood the shortage to be larger than three
officers. Ms. Keller clarified the distinction between officers hired and officers available to
work, noting that medical, military and other leaves created a larger on-the-ground shortage
than the authorized headcount reflected.
Council Member Brausen asked whether the additional hiring would fully address the shortage.
Mr. Nadem acknowledged the department would still be short-staffed. Ms. Keller stated that
the primary near-term goal was to move off emergency staffing protocols. She described the
CSO pipeline as the key mechanism for matching new officers with vacancies over time.
Council Member Brausen noted that even if the department were fully staffed, they might face
challenges finding enough qualified candidates to fill all roles. He expressed support for
continued investment in officer staffing to avoid burnout.
Council Member Farris emphasized the importance of supporting officers and ensuring they
were not overextended.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 4b) Page 5
Title: City council special study session meeting minutes of August 3, 2026
Council Member Baudhuin asked how long the department had been operating on emergency
staffing. Ms. Keller indicated it had been since approximately December 2025; confirmed by
Mr. Nadem.
Council Member Budd asked whether the CSO program typically ran 18 months. Mr. Nadem
said the timeframe varied — some participants were near-graduates while others might not yet
hold a two-year degree, putting them in the program for up to 24 months. Ms. Keller noted that
the program could run up to four years depending on degree pursuit, but that most participants
completed it faster than that.
Council Member Budd referenced earlier concerns about officers leaving after the city invested
in them and asked whether that applied to the CSO program. Mr. Nadem clarified that the
attrition issue had been with the Pathway to Policing program, not with CSOs. He noted that
44% of current staff were former CSO cadets, including himself, and that CSOs demonstrated
strong retention and cultural alignment with the department.
Ms. Keller added that the Pathway to Policing program had previously relied on outside funding
that had since dried up, making CSOs the more cost-effective pipeline.
Ms. Stephens reported that total new ongoing allocations across all departments reached just
under $714,000. After applying anticipated 2026 savings the net new ongoing general fund
spending for 2027 was just under $395,000, representing approximately a 0.6% levy increase.
Ms. Keller noted that because she had authorization over personnel dollars, she was sharing all
three new roles for transparency. The net addition to the city - and the ultimate request - is for
one new position.
Ms. Stephens summarized the levy trajectory. The base budget increase for 2027 was
approximately 5.85%. The proposed ongoing spending additions contributed approximately
0.6%. The upcoming discussion of the CIP, climate investment fund and other special funds on
Sept. 8, 2026, would refine the total, culminating in the proposed maximum levy to be adopted
on Sept. 22, 2026.
Council Member Baudhuin asked whether staff foresaw any surprises that could drive the levy
higher, as had occurred the prior year. Ms. Stephens noted that debt service had increased
slightly more than expected, but that departments had offset that through careful budget
management, allowing the 5.85% base to hold.
Ms. Keller flagged the climate investment fund as a potential significant variable in the
September 2026 discussion, noting the city had been drawing down seed money as programs
matured. A sustainable ongoing funding source would need to be established to fund the work.
The said that staff was working smooth the transition for the levy.
Council Member Engelking asked whether commercial real estate had bottomed out and
whether less of the levy burden would shift to residential property owners than in the prior
year. Ms. Stephens indicated the shift would likely be smaller. Ms. Keller noted the city would
have more clarity in mid-September 2026 when the county released market valuation data. She
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 4b) Page 6
Title: City council special study session meeting minutes of August 3, 2026
expressed hope those numbers would be available before the Sept. 22, 2026, maximum levy
adoption.
Council Member Brausen expressed support for the budget overall and stated his desire to see
greater investment in the climate investment fund, acknowledging that would need to be
weighed against levy impact.
Mayor Mohamed commended staff for integrating strategic priorities into budget requests in a
way that made each investment easier to explain to residents. She highlighted the digital
accessibility work as a strong example of the city's commitment to welcoming and accessible
government.
Council Member Baudhuin and Council Member Brausen both acknowledged the difficulty of
balancing resident expectations around taxes with the cost of maintaining valued city services,
and thanked staff for their responsiveness to council direction.
Council Member Budd observed that residents both valued city services and rebuffed tax
increases, making the balance inherently challenging.
Council Member Baudhuin suggested that the city produce a chart or annual report showing
grants received and other outside revenue sources to help residents understand the full picture
of how the city funds its work. Ms. Keller confirmed staff was preparing an annual grants report
showing all grants applied for and awarded.
Council Member Budd added that the city's grants program was a significant contributor to the
financial bottom line and that staff deserved recognition for that work.
Council Member Engelking asked whether any TIF districts were eligible for decertification at
year-end. Ms. Barton confirmed a small number were eligible. She pointed out a full discussion
on this topic would take place during a TIF management plan presentation on Oct. 12, 2026.
Ms. Keller noted the districts did not appear to be large and that any decertification decision
would have a limited levy impact.
Mayor Mohamed closed the discussion, noting that no decisions were required and that council
feedback would inform the next phase of the budget process. She congratulated Ms. Stephens
on her appointment to finance director.
The meeting adjourned at 7:22 p.m.

Executive summary
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software
Recommended action: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management
system software
Policy consideration: Does the council want to approve a contract to replace a legacy software
system in alignment with the good governance strategic priority?
Summary: The city's current permit and inspection management system (PIMS) is a legacy
software system built, maintained and provided to the city through the Local Government
Information Systems (LOGIS) consortium and expected to be retired by LOGIS. City staff
evaluated the proposed LOGIS replacement for this software and determined it did not provide
important features desired from a new system as identified by a cross-departmental
workgroup. Additionally, the city wants to move to contracting directly with the software
vendor rather than through the consortium. Following a Request for Proposal and quote and
evaluation process by the workgroup, Tyler Technologies has been selected to provide the city’s
replacement permit and inspection system software. The Tyler Technologies enterprise permit
and licensing (EPL) software most closely meets the city’s requirements for functionality,
security, accessibility, excellent internal and external user interface and cost-effectiveness.
EPL will help the city manage 26,500 permit and license applications and collect $4.4 million in
revenue annually. The building inspections and licensing and property maintenance division use
this software most heavily. It also supports planning, zoning, engineering, tree protection and
fire permits and inspections.
Financial or budget considerations: This is a three-year contract with a total cost of $448,668,
plus potential additional costs of up to $45,000 depending on use and selection of optional
implementation assistance and additional modules. The contract language has been reviewed
by the city attorney with required changes implemented by Tyler Technologies. The cost of the
software implementation will be funded through General Fund savings identified within the
current year budget. These savings reflect favorable budget-to-actual results and operational
efficiencies and are not the result of reductions to services, programs or staffing. The ongoing
costs will be funded through general levy in the Internal Service Fund.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to being a city that delivers reliable
services, uses city resources responsibly, operates transparently and builds strong relationships
with residents.

Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software
Discussion
Background: The city's current permit and inspection management system (PIMS) is a legacy
software system built, maintained and provided to the city through the Local Government
Information Systems (LOGIS) consortium.
The city currently uses this system to process approximately 26,500 permits and licenses and
collect $4.4 million in revenue annually. These are primarily building, mechanical, plumbing
electrical permits and businesses licenses. The system also supports several divisions, including
planning and zoning, city clerk, engineering, facilities and fire. It is an enterprise-wide product
that manages a complex system of permits, licenses, reviews, inspections and scheduling. It is
an important and high-volume point of contact for the city’s customers.
City staff evaluated the proposed LOGIS replacement for this software and determined it did
not provide important features desired from a new system as identified by a cross-
departmental workgroup. Additionally, the city wants to move to contracting directly with the
software vendor rather than through the consortium, which allows for the city to have a service
level agreement with the vendor, as well as other factors.
Important features for a new system were identified by a cross-department workgroup, then
used to develop the request for proposal and quote (RFP/Q). Vendors who met the RFP/Q
requirements were invited to provide proof-of-capability sessions to the workgroup, who
scored vendors based on the original criteria they had identified as important.
After careful consideration of the workgroup scorecards and feedback, pricing and reference
checks, Tyler Technologies was selected to provide the city’s replacement permit and
inspection system software. The Tyler Technologies enterprise permit and licensing (EPL)
software most closely meets the city’s requirements for functionality, security, accessibility,
internal and external user interface and cost-effectiveness. The EPL software will be both
internal and external facing and used for several city functions, including:
• Issuing construction project permits
• Inspecting new construction and remodeling for compliance with Minnesota State
Building Code standards
• Conducting point-of-sale property inspections
• Licensing for a wide variety of functions
• Enforcing city code provisions related to property maintenance, nuisance and zoning
• Inspecting multifamily rental units and non-owner-occupied one- and two-family homes
• Issuing right of way and erosion control permits
Cost: This is a three-year contract with a total cost of $448,668, plus potential additional costs
of up to $45,000 depending on use of optional implementation assistance.

Present considerations: As required, LOGIS was notified by June 15, 2026, of the city’s intention
to leave the LOGIS PIMS application in 2027. The city will continue to pay the current costs for
PIMS – approximately $100,000 annually – until the new system is implemented. LOGIS has
agreed to pro-rate those fees should the city accomplish the migration sooner than Dec. 31,
2027.
Next steps: Following approval and execution of the contract, implementation will begin in
September 2026 and be completed no later than Dec. 31, 2027.

5. Software Warranty. We warrant that the Tyler Software will perform without Defects during the
term of this Agreement. If the Tyler Software does not perform as warranted, we will use all
reasonable efforts, consistent with industry standards, to cure the Defect in accordance with our
then-current Support Call Process.
6. SaaS Services.
6.1. Audit & Compliance. Our SaaS Services are audited at least yearly in accordance with the
AICPA’s Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (“SSAE”) No. 21. We have
attained, and will maintain, SOC 1 and SOC 2 compliance, or their equivalent, for so long as you
are timely paying for SaaS Services. The foregoing notwithstanding, you acknowledge that the
scope of audit coverage varies depending on the specific Tyler Software solution. We will
provide you with a summary of our current compliance report(s) or its equivalent, upon your
request. For the avoidance of doubt, if our SaaS Services are provided using a third-party data
center, the compliance report may be for that third-party provider and be subject to
confidential treatment in accordance with applicable law. If you want us to provide our
compliance reports to a third-party auditor or similar entity, we reserve the right to require
execution of an NDA by that third party.
6.2. Service Levels. The Tyler Software will be made available to you according to the terms of the
SLA. Tyler SaaS Services will be provided via a third-party data center. Your Data will be
inaccessible to our other customers.
6.3. Business Continuity. Data centers used to deliver SaaS Services for this Agreement have
redundant telecommunications access, electrical power, and the required hardware to provide
access to the SaaS Services in the event of a disaster or component failure. We test our disaster
recovery plan on an annual basis. The plan is not client specific and is detailed in Tyler’s System
& Organization Control reports or their equivalent. In the event of a data center failure, we
reserve the right to employ our disaster recovery plan for resumption of the SaaS Services. In
that event, we commit to a Recovery Point Objective (“RPO”) of 24 hours and a Recovery Time
Objective (“RTO”) of 24 hours. RPO represents the maximum duration of time between the
most recent recoverable copy of your hosted Data and subsequent data center failure. RTO
represents the maximum duration of time following data center failure within which your access
to the Tyler Software must be restored. If we employ our disaster recovery plan, we will be
responsible for restoring your Data and ensuring that the SaaS Services are online, and you will
be responsible for validating your Data and confirming the functioning of the SaaS Services,
including any integrations.
6.4. Security Measures. We provide secure Data transmission paths between your devices and the
data center used to provide SaaS Services to you. Data centers used to provide SaaS Services
are accessible only by authorized personnel with a unique key entry or comparable security.
We conduct annual penetration testing of either the production network and/or web
application to be performed. We will maintain industry standard intrusion detection and
prevention systems to monitor malicious activity in the network and to log and block any such
activity. You may not attempt to bypass or subvert security restrictions in the SaaS Services or
environments related to the Tyler Software. Unauthorized attempts to access files, passwords,
or other confidential information, and vulnerability and penetration test scanning of our
network and systems (hosted or otherwise) are prohibited. Where applicable with respect to
our applications that take or process card payment data, we comply with applicable
requirements of PCI DSS. We agree to supply the then-current status of our PCI DSS compliance

program in the form of an official Attestation of Compliance, which can be found at
https://www.tylertech.com/about-us/compliance and, in the event of any change in our status,
we will comply with applicable notice requirements.
6.5. Password Security. You are responsible for:
6.5.1. keeping your and your representatives’ passwords secure and confidential;
6.5.2. any account activity or access that occurs pursuant to you and your representatives’
passwords, its account or IdPs; and

2. Professional Services Fees. You agree to pay us the services fees in the amounts set forth in the

expressly stated otherwise, are good-faith estimates of the amount of time and materials required

provided to you. Any discrepancies in the total values set forth in the Investment Summary will be
resolved by multiplying the applicable rate by the quoted units.
3. Additional Services. The Investment Summary contains, and the Statement of Work describes, the

Majeure or breach by us), you will be liable for all (i) daily fees associated with cancelled
professional services if we are unable to reassign our personnel and (ii) any non-refundable travel
expenses already incurred by us on your behalf. We will make all reasonable efforts to reassign
personnel in the event you cancel within four (4) weeks of scheduled commitments.

9.2. Once Tyler’s project team is assembled and Client’s counterparts have been identified, both
parties agree that, except for reasons outside of their control, they will not remove staff and
personnel from their assigned project roles without reasonable advance notice and good cause,
and that they will work together to mitigate project impacts after any such removal. The parties
will also work together to manage the project impact resulting from the temporary
unavailability of project staff from either party. Tyler agrees to use commercially reasonable
efforts to maintain consistency of project personnel and commit to replacement resources
having sufficient project knowledge, without additional cost to Client, in order to render services
in accordance with contractual requirements.
9.3. In the event Tyler’s personnel is/are not providing services consistent with Tyler’s services

designing and implementing the questionnaires.
Implementation Notes
Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EPL) Implementation: This implementation follows a shared services model. Tyler is responsible for configuring 5 case
types as examples, with the client completing the remaining configuration. Each unique case type configured by Tyler is estimated to require 25-30 hours
for definition, configuration, and validation. Tyler will also enable the application's standard Geo Rules and standard automation events. The client will
manage all additional configuration tasks.
Tyler's implementation team will primarily handle the following tasks:
• Training on EPL functionality.
• Providing training, best practices, and consultation on software configuration and maintenance for EPL and Civic Access applications.
• Establish connections between EPL, Civic Access, and the client-published GIS map services and configure EPL’s Live Link component.
• Configure and validate core EPL functionalities, including global settings and initial user roles.
• Configure and validate the payment system for EPL and Civic Access or enable electronic payments based on client-supplied payment gateway
information (where applicable, depending on the contract and the client securing an approved payment gateway).
• Configure and validate integrations between Tyler products (Enterprise ERP, Cashiering, Content Manager, Enterprise Service Requests, and others as
applicable based on the contract).
Client's Responsibilities The client's Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) are expected to be available approximately 25-50% of each week (depending on the
number of processes) throughout the project to perform configuration and validation, in addition to time spent with the Tyler team. The client’s
configuration team should plan to dedicate 30-45 hours per process following the completion of configuration training. The client’s SMEs will primarily be
responsible for the following tasks:
• Configuring Case Types and Work Classes, including all associated module components.
• Set up system configurations (e.g., Holidays, Zones, Hold Types, Hearing Types, etc.).
• Configure dynamic custom fields for Report Setup.
• Configure users and user roles.
• Configure Workflow components and Workflow Templates (e.g., Steps, Actions, Submittal Types, Item Reviews, etc.).
• Customizing and administering Civic Access (e.g., allowed Case Types, Application instructions, Geo Rules, Themes, Headers, Menus, Security Settings,
etc.).
• Configure Automation Events (e.g., Intelligent Objects, standard Intelligent Queries) to manage tasks such as emails, tasks, Geo Rules, etc.
• Manage any additional configuration tasks as the client desires.

Integration Notes
Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EPL) API Implementation & Support: Tyler’s services for EPL API implementation are limited to delivering the API and
providing guidance to the client’s integration development team. Tyler does not offer integration development services for EPL API/SDK toolkits. The
client, or a chosen third-party integrator, will be responsible for all development work related to the API/SDK.
Integration with Executive Insights: Tyler will establish the connection and verify the data exchange between Executive Insights and EPL. No additional
integrations are included in the scope of this implementation.
Conversion and Reports Notes
Full Conversion: The Client will provide Tyler with up to [1] legacy data source containing data related to Permitting, Planning, Licensing, Inspection, and
Code Enforcement from the legacy system. The Client is responsible for extracting the data from their legacy system(s) and delivering it to Tyler in an
acceptable format. Tyler will not manipulate or correct the legacy data on behalf of the Client; the Client must resolve any data quality issues before
submission. Tyler will populate the Data Conversion Template database (DCT-DB) with the legacy data for conversion into EPL. Tyler will use the
completed DCT-DB to produce a mapping document to enable the Client to correlate legacy data fields with EPL fields. The Client is responsible for all
data mapping decisions and document completion. The DCT-DB and mapping document provided by the client will translate the legacy data into the
EPL software, constituting a “conversion pass.” The scope of this implementation includes four (4) conversion passes: two (2) evaluation passes, one (1)
simulated go-live pass, and one (1) final golive pass. No additional conversion services are included in the scope of this implementation. Any further data
sources will require a change order.
Custom Reports: No custom reports, forms, or letters are included in this implementation.

Exhibit C
SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT
I. Agreement Overview
This SLA operates in conjunction with, and does not supersede or replace any part of, the Agreement. It
outlines the information technology service levels related to the availability of the Tyler SaaS Services that
you have requested us to provide. All other support services are documented in the Support Call Process.
This SLA does not apply to any Third-Party SaaS Services.
II. Definitions. Except as defined below, all defined terms have the meaning set forth in the
Agreement.
Actual Attainment: The percentage of time the Tyler Software is available during a calendar month,
calculated as follows: (Service Availability – Downtime) ÷ Service Availability.
Client Error Incident: Any service unavailability resulting from your applications, content or equipment, or
the acts or omissions of any of your service users or third-party providers over whom we exercise no
control.
Downtime: Those minutes during Service Availability, as defined below, when all users cannot launch,
login, search or save primary data in the Tyler Software. Downtime does not include those instances in
which only a Defect is present.
Emergency Maintenance Window: (1) maintenance that is required to patch a critical security
vulnerability; (2) maintenance that is required to prevent an imminent outage of Service Availability; or
(3) maintenance that is mutually agreed upon in writing by Tyler and the Client.
Planned Downtime: Downtime that occurs during a Standard or Emergency Maintenance window.
Service Availability: The total number of minutes in a calendar month that the Tyler Software is capable
of receiving, processing, and responding to requests, excluding Planned Downtime, Client Error Incidents,
denial of service attacks and Force Majeure. Service Availability only applies to Tyler Software being used
in the production environment.
Standard Maintenance: Routine maintenance to the Tyler Software and infrastructure. Standard
Maintenance is limited to five (5) hours per week.
III. Service Availability
a. Your Responsibilities
Whenever you experience Downtime, you must make a support call according to the procedures outlined
in the Support Call Process. You will receive a support case number.
b. Our Responsibilities
When our support team receives a call from you that Downtime has occurred or is occurring, we will work
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 28
2
with you to identify the cause of the Downtime (including whether it may be the result of Planned
Downtime, a Client Error Incident, denial of service attack or Force Majeure). We will also work with you
to resume normal operations.
c. Client Relief
Our targeted Attainment Goal is 100%. You may be entitled to credits as indicated in the Client Relief
Schedule found below. Your relief credit is calculated as a percentage of the SaaS Fees paid for the
calendar month.
In order to receive relief credits, you must submit a request through one of the channels listed in our
Support Call Process within fifteen (15) days of the end of the applicable month. We will respond to your
relief request within thirty (30) days of receipt.
The total credits confirmed by us will be applied to the SaaS Fee for the next billing cycle. Issuing of such
credit does not relieve us of our obligations under the Agreement to correct the problem which created
the service interruption.
Credits are only payable when Actual Attainment results in eligibility for credits in consecutive months
and only for such consecutive months.
Client Relief Schedule
Actual Attainment Client Relief
99.99% - 99.70% Remedial action will be taken
99.69% - 98.50% 2% of SaaS Fees paid for applicable month
98.49% - 97.50% 4% of SaaS Fees paid for applicable month
97.49% - 96.50% 6% of SaaS Fees paid for applicable month
96.49% - 95.50% 8% of SaaS Fees paid for applicable month
Below 95.50% 10% of SaaS Fees paid for applicable month
* Notwithstanding language in the Agreement to the contrary, Recovery Point Objective is one (1) hour.
IV. Maintenance Notifications
We perform Standard Maintenance during limited windows that are historically known to be reliably
low-traffic times. If and when maintenance is predicted to occur during periods of higher traffic, we will
provide advance notice of those windows and will coordinate to the greatest extent possible with you.
Not all maintenance activities will cause application unavailability. However, if Tyler anticipates that
activities during a Standard or Emergency Maintenance window may make the Tyler Software
unavailable, we will provide advance notice, as reasonably practicable, that the Tyler Software will be
unavailable during the maintenance window.

Part 1: Executive Summary
Project Overview
Introduction
Tyler Technologies (“Tyler”) is the largest and most established provider of integrated software and
technology services focused solely on the public sector. Tyler’s end-to-end solutions empower public sector
entities including local, state, provincial and federal government, to operate more efficiently and connect
more transparently with their constituents and with each other. By connecting data and processes across
disparate systems, Tyler’s solutions transform how the City of St. Louis Park gains actionable insights that
solve problems.
Project Goals
This Statement of Work (“SOW”) documents the methodology, implementation stages, activities, and roles
and responsibilities, and project scope listed in the Investment Summary of the Agreement between Tyler
and the City of St. Louis Park (collectively the “Project”).
The overall goals of the project are to:
▪Successfully implement the contracted scope on time and on budget
▪Increase operational efficiencies and empower users to be more productive
▪Improve accessibility and responsiveness to external and internal customer needs
▪Overcome current challenges and meet future goals
▪Providing a single, comprehensive, and integrated solution to manage business functions
▪Streamline business processes through automation, integration, and workflows
▪Provide a user-friendly user interface to promote system use and productivity
▪Eliminate redundant data entry
Methodology
This is accomplished by the City of St. Louis Park and Tyler working as a partnership and Tyler utilizing its
depth of implementation experience. While each Project is unique, all will follow Tyler’s six-stage
methodology. Each of the six stages is comprised of multiple work packages, and each work package includes
a narrative description, objectives, tasks, inputs, outputs/deliverables, assumptions, and a responsibility
matrix.
Tailored specifically for Tyler’s public sector clients, the project methodology contains Stage Acceptance
Control Points throughout each Phase to ensure adherence to scope, budget, timeline controls, effective
communications, and quality standards. Clearly defined, the project methodology repeats consistently across
Phases and is scaled to meet the City of St. Louis Park’s complexity and organizational needs.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 36
City of St. Louis Park
Tyler Technologies, Inc. Page | 2
The methodology adapts to both single-phase and multiple-phase projects.
To achieve Project success, it is imperative that both the City of St. Louis Park and Tyler commit to including
the necessary leadership and governance. During each stage of the Project, it is expected that the City of St.
Louis Park and Tyler Project teams work collaboratively to complete tasks. An underlying principle of Tyler’s
Implementation process is to employ an iterative model where the City of St. Louis Park’s processes are
assessed, configured, validated, and refined cyclically in line with the project budget. This approach is used in
multiple stages and work packages as illustrated in the graphic below.
The delivery approach is systematic, which reduces variability and mitigates risks to ensure Project success. As
illustrated, some stages, along with work packages and tasks, are intended to be overlapping by nature to
complete the Project efficiently and effectively.

Part 2: Project Foundation
Project Governance
Project governance is the management framework within which Project decisions are made. The role of
Project governance is to provide a decision-making approach that is logical, robust, and repeatable. This
allows organizations to have a structured approach for conducting its daily business in addition to project
related activities.
This section outlines the resources required to meet the business needs, objectives, and priorities for the
Project, communicate the goals to other Project participants, and provide support and guidance to
accomplish these goals. Project governance defines the structure for escalation of issues and risks, Change
Control review and authority, and Organizational Change Management activities. Throughout the Statement
of Work Tyler has provided RACI Matrices for activities to be completed throughout the implementation
which will further outline responsibilities of different roles in each stage. Further refinement of the
governance structure, related processes, and specific roles and responsibilities occur during the Initiate &
Plan Stage.
The chart below illustrates an overall team perspective where Tyler and the City of St. Louis Park collaborate
to resolve Project challenges according to defined escalation paths. If project managers do not possess
authority to determine a solution, resolve an issue, or mitigate a risk, Tyler implementation management and
the City of St. Louis Park Steering Committee become the escalation points to triage responses prior to
escalation to the City of St. Louis Park and Tyler executive sponsors. As part of the escalation process, each
Project governance tier presents recommendations and supporting information to facilitate knowledge
transfer and issue resolution. Them City of St. Louis Park and Tyler executive sponsors serve as the final
escalation point.

Project Scope Control
Managing Scope and Project Change
Project Management governance principles contend that there are three connected constraints on a Project:
budget, timeline, and scope. These constraints, known as the “triple constraints” or project management
triangle, define budget in terms of financial cost, labor costs, and other resource costs. Scope is defined as the
work performed to deliver a product, service or result with the specified features and functions, while time is
simply defined as the schedule. The Triple Constraint theory states that if you change one side of the triangle,
the other two sides must be correspondingly adjusted. For example, if the scope of the Project is increased,
cost and time to complete will also need to increase. The Project and executive teams will need to remain
cognizant of these constraints when making impactful decisions to the Project. A simple illustration of this
triangle is included here, showing the connection of each item and their relational impact to the overall
Scope.
A pillar of any successful project is the ability to properly manage scope while allowing the appropriate level
of flexibility to incorporate approved changes. Scope and changes within the project will be managed using
the change control process outlined in the following section.
Change Control
It may become necessary to change the scope of this Project due to unforeseeable circumstances (e.g., new
constraints or opportunities are discovered). This Project is being undertaken with the understanding that
Project scope, schedule, and/or cost may need to change to produce optimal results for stakeholders.
Changes to contractual requirements will follow the change control process specified in the final contract,
and as described below.
Change Request Management
Should the need for a change to Project scope, schedule, and/or cost be identified during the Project, the
change will be brought to the attention of the Steering Committee, and an assessment of the change will
occur. While such changes may result in additional costs and delays relative to the schedule, some changes
may result in less cost to City of St. Louis Park; for example, City of St. Louis Park may decide it no longer
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 39
City of St. Louis Park
Tyler Technologies, Inc. Page | 5
needs a deliverable originally defined in the Project. The Change Request will include the following
information:
▪ The nature of the change.
▪ A good faith estimate of the additional cost or associated savings to City of St. Louis Park, if any.
▪ The timetable for implementing the change.
▪ The effect on and/or risk to the schedule, resource needs or resource responsibilities.
The City of St. Louis Park will use its good faith efforts to either approve or disapprove any Change Request
within ten (10) Business Days (or other period as mutually agreeable between Tyler and the City of St. Louis
Park). Any changes to the Project scope, budget, or timeline must be documented and approved in writing
using a Change Request form. These changes constitute a formal amendment to the Statement of Work and
will supersede any conflicting term in the Statement of Work.

Acceptance Process
The implementation of a Project involves many decisions to be made throughout its lifecycle. Decisions will
vary from higher level strategy decisions to smaller, detailed Project level decisions. It is critical to the success
of the Project that each City of St. Louis Park office or department designates specific individuals for making
decisions on behalf of their offices or departments.
Both Tyler and the City of St. Louis Park will identify representative project managers. These individuals will
represent the interests of all stakeholders and serve as the primary contacts between the two organizations.
The coordination of gaining City of St. Louis Park feedback and approval on Project deliverables will be critical
to the success of the Project. City of St. Louis Park project manager will strive to gain deliverable and decision
approvals from all authorized City of St. Louis Park representatives. Given that the designated decision-maker
for each department may not always be available, there must be a designated proxy for each decision point in
the Project. Assignment of each proxy will be the responsibility of the leadership from each City of St. Louis
Park department. The proxies will be named individuals that have the authorization to make decisions on
behalf of their department.
The following process will be used for accepting Deliverables and Control Points:
▪City of St. Louis Park shall have five (5) business days from the date of delivery, or as otherwise
mutually agreed upon by the parties in writing, to accept each Deliverable or Control Point. If City of
St. Louis Park does not provide acceptance or acknowledgement within five (5) business days, or the
otherwise agreed upon timeframe, not to be unreasonably withheld, Tyler deems the Deliverable or
Control Point as accepted.
▪If City of St. Louis Park does not agree the Deliverable or Control Point meets requirements, City of St.
Louis Park shall notify Tyler project manager(s), in writing, with reasoning within five (5) business
days, or the otherwise agreed-upon timeframe, not to be unreasonably withheld, of receipt of the
Deliverable.
▪Tyler shall address any deficiencies and redeliver the Deliverable or Control Point. City of St. Louis
Park shall then have two (2) business days from receipt of the redelivered Deliverable or Control
Point to accept or again submit written notification of reasons for rejecting the milestone. If City of St.
Louis Park does not provide acceptance within two (2) business days, or the otherwise agreed upon
timeframe, not to be unreasonably withheld, Tyler deems the Deliverable or Control Point as
accepted.
Roles and Responsibilities
The following defines the roles and responsibilities of each Project resource for City of St. Louis Park and
Tyler. Roles and responsibilities may not follow the organizational chart or position descriptions at City of St.
Louis Park, but are roles defined within the Project. It is common for individual resources on both the Tyler
and City of St. Louis Park project teams to fill multiple roles. Similarly, it is common for some roles to be filled
by multiple people.
Tyler Roles & Responsibilities
Tyler assigns a project manager prior to the start of each Phase of the Project (some Projects may only be one
Phase in duration). Additional Tyler resources are assigned as the schedule develops and as needs arise.

Part 3: Project Plan
Project Stages
Work Breakdown Structure
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is a hierarchical representation of a Project or Phase broken down into
smaller, more manageable components. The top-level components are called “Stages”, and the second level
components are called “Work Packages”. The work packages, shown below each stage, contain the high-level
work to be done. The detailed Project Schedule, developed during Project/Phase Planning and finalized during
subsequent stages, lists the tasks to be completed within each work package. Each stage ends with a “Control
Point”, confirming the work performed during that stage of the Project has been accepted by City of St. Louis
Park.
*Items noted with an asterisk in the graphic above relate to specific products and services. If those products and services are not included in the scope
of the contract, these specific work packages will be noted as “Intentionally Left Blank” in Section 6 of the Statement of Work.

Initiate and Plan
The Initiate and Plan stage involves Project initiation, infrastructure, and planning. This stage creates a
foundation for the Project by identifying and establishing sequence and timing for each Phase as well as
verifying scope for the Project. This stage will be conducted at the onset of the Project, with a few unique
items being repeated for the additional Phases as needed.
Initial Coordination
Prior to Project commencement, Tyler management assigns project manager(s). Additional Project resources
will be assigned later in the Project as a Project schedule is developed. Tyler provides City of St. Louis Park
with initial Project documents used to gather names of key personnel, their functional role as it pertains to
the Project, as well as any blackout dates to consider for future planning. City of St. Louis Park gathers the
information requested by the provided deadline ensuring preliminary planning and scheduling can be
conducted moving the Project forward in a timely fashion. Internally, the Tyler Project Manager(s) coordinate
with sales to ensure transfer of vital information from the sales process prior to scheduling a Project Planning
Meeting with City of St. Louis Park’s team. During this step, Tyler will work with City of St. Louis Park to
establish the date(s) for the Project and Phase Planning session.
Objectives:
▪Formally launch the project.
▪Establish project governance.
▪Define and communicate governance for Tyler.
▪Identify City of St. Louis Park project team.

Project/Phase Planning
Project and Phase planning provides an opportunity to review the contract, software, data conversions and
services purchased, identify applications to implement in each Phase (if applicable), and discuss
implementation timeframes.
During this work package Tyler will work with City of St. Louis Park to coordinate and plan a formal Project
planning meeting(s). This meeting signifies the start of the Project and should be attended by all City of St.
Louis Park Project team members and the Tyler Project Manager. The meeting provides an opportunity for
Tyler to introduce its implementation methodology, terminology, and Project management best practices to
City of St. Louis Park’s Project Team. This will also present an opportunity for project managers and Project
sponsors to begin to discuss Project communication, metrics, status reporting and tools to be used to
measure Project progress and manage change.
Tyler will work with City of St. Louis Park Project Team to prepare and deliver the Project Management Plan as
an output of the planning meeting. This plan will continue to evolve and grow as the Project progresses and
will describe how the project will be executed, monitored, and controlled.
During project planning, Tyler will introduce the tools that will be used throughout the implementation. Tyler
will familiarize City of St. Louis Park with these tools during project planning and make them available for
review and maintenance as applicable throughout the project. Some examples are Solution validation plan,
issue log, and go-live checklist.

begin preparation early.
Objectives:
▪Identify all City of St. Louis Park GIS data sources and formats.
▪Tyler to understand City of St. Louis Park’s GIS needs and practices.
▪Ensure City of St. Louis Park’s GIS data meets Tyler product requirements.

Assess & Define
The Assess & Define stage will provide an opportunity to gather information related to current City of St.
Louis Park business processes. This information will be used to identify and define business processes utilized
with Tyler software. City of St. Louis Park collaborates with Tyler providing complete and accurate information
to Tyler staff and assisting in analysis, understanding current workflows and business processes.
Solution Orientation
The Solution Orientation provides the Project stakeholders a high-level understanding of the solution
functionality prior to beginning the current and future state analysis. The primary goal is to establish a
foundation for upcoming conversations regarding the design and configuration of the solution.
Tyler utilizes a variety of tools for the Solution Orientation, focusing on City of St. Louis Park team knowledge
transfer such as: eLearning, documentation, or walkthroughs. City of St. Louis Park team will gain a better
understanding of the major processes and focus on data flow, the connection between configuration options
and outcome, integration, and terminology that may be unique to Tyler’s solution.
Objectives:
▪Provide a basic understanding of system functionality.
▪Prepare City of St. Louis Park for current and future state analysis.

Current & Future State Analysis
The Current & Future State Analysis provides the Project stakeholders and Tyler an understanding of process
changes that will be achieved with the new system.
City of St. Louis Park and Tyler will evaluate current state processes, options within the new software, pros
and cons of each based on current or desired state and make decisions about the future state configuration
and processing. This may occur before or within the same timeframe as the configuration work package. The
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 56
City of St. Louis Park
Tyler Technologies, Inc. Page | 22
options within the new software will be limited to the scope of this implementation and will make use of
standard Tyler functionality.
City of St. Louis Park will adopt the existing Tyler solution wherever possible to avoid project schedule and
quality risk from over customization of Tyler products. It is City of St. Louis Park’s responsibility to verify that
in-scope requirements are being met throughout the implementation if functional requirements are defined
as part of the contract. The following guidelines will be followed when evaluating if a modification to the
product is required:
▪A reasonable business process change is available.
▪Functionality exists which satisfies the requirement.
▪Configuration of the application satisfies the requirement.
▪An in-scope modification satisfies the requirement.
Requirements that are not met will follow the agreed upon change control process and can have impacts on
the project schedule, scope, budget, and resource availability.

▪City of St. Louis Park attendees possess sufficient knowledge and authority to make future state
decisions.
▪City of St. Louis Park is responsible for any documentation of current state business processes.

Conversion Assessment
Data Conversions are a major effort in any software implementation. Tyler’s conversion tools facilitate the
predictable, repeatable conversion process that is necessary to support a successful transition to the Tyler
system. The first step in this process is to perform an assessment of the existing (“legacy”) system(s), to
better understand the source data, risks, and options available. Once the data has been analyzed, the plan for
data conversion is completed and communicated to the appropriate stakeholders.
Objectives:
▪Communicate a common understanding of the project goals with respect to data.
▪Ensure complete and accurate source data is available for review/transfer.
▪Map the data from the source to the Tyler system.
▪Document the data conversion/loading approach.

End User Training
End User Training is a critical part of any successful software implementation. Using a training plan previously
reviewed and approved, the Project team will organize and initiate the training activities.
Train the Trainer: Tyler provides one occurrence of each scheduled training or implementation topic. City of
St. Louis Park users who attended the Tyler sessions may train additional users. Additional Tyler led sessions
may be contracted at the applicable rates for training.
Tyler will provide standard application documentation for the general use of the software. It is not Tyler’s
responsibility to develop City of St. Louis Park specific business process documentation. City of St. Louis Park-
led training labs using City of St. Louis Park specific business process documentation if created by City of St.
Louis Park can be added to the regular training curriculum, enhancing the training experiences of the end
users.

Production Readiness stage acceptance criteria:
▪All stage deliverables accepted based on criteria previously defined.
▪Go-Live planning session conducted.
Production
Following end user training the production system will be fully enabled and made ready for daily operational
use as of the scheduled date. Tyler and City of St. Louis Park will follow the comprehensive action plan laid out
during Go-Live Readiness to support go-live activities and minimize risk to the Project during go-live.
Following go-live, Tyler will work with City of St. Louis Park to verify that implementation work is concluded,
post go-live activities are scheduled, and the transition to City of St. Louis Park Services is complete for long-
term operations and maintenance of the Tyler software.
Go-Live
Following the action plan for Go-Live, defined in the Production Readiness stage, City of St. Louis Park and
Tyler will complete work assigned to prepare for Go-Live.
City of St. Louis Park provides final data extract and Reports from the Legacy System for data conversion and
Tyler executes final conversion iteration, if applicable. If defined in the action plan, City of St. Louis Park
manually enters any data added to the Legacy System after final data extract into the Tyler system.
Tyler staff collaborates with City of St. Louis Park during Go-Live activities. City of St. Louis Park transitions to
Tyler software for day-to day business processing.
Some training topics are better addressed following Go-Live when additional data is available in the system or
based on timing of applicable business processes and will be scheduled following Go-Live per the Project
Schedule.
Objectives:
▪Execute day to day processing in Tyler software.
▪City of St. Louis Park data available in Production environment.

General Assumptions
Tyler and City of St. Louis Park will use this SOW as a guide for managing the implementation of the Tyler
Project as provided and described in the Agreement. There are a few assumptions which, when
acknowledged and adhered to, will support a successful implementation. Assumptions relate d to specific
work packages are documented throughout the SOW. Included here are general assumptions which should
be considered throughout the overall implementation process.
Project
▪Project activities will begin after the Agreement has been fully executed.
▪City of St. Louis Park Project Team will complete their necessary assignments in a mutually agreed
upon timeframe to meet the scheduled go-live date, as outlined in the Project Schedule.
▪Sessions will be scheduled and conducted at a mutually agreeable time.
▪Additional services, software modules and modifications not described in the SOW or Agreement will
be considered a change to this Project and will require a Change Request Form as previously
referenced in the definition of the Change Control Process.
▪Tyler will provide a written agenda and notice of any prerequisites to City of St. Louis Park project
manager(s) ten (10) business days or as otherwise mutually agreed upon time frame prior to any
scheduled on-site or remote sessions, as applicable.
▪Tyler will provide guidance for configuration and processing options available within the Tyler
software. If multiple options are presented by Tyler, City of St. Louis Park is responsible for making
decisions based on the options available.
▪Implementation of new software may require changes to existing processes, both business and
technical, requiring City of St. Louis Park to make process changes.
▪City of St. Louis Park is responsible for defining, documenting, and implementing their policies that
result from any business process changes.
Organizational Change Management
Unless otherwise contracted by Tyler, City of St. Louis Park is responsible for managing Organizational
Change. Impacted City of St. Louis Park resources will need consistent coaching and reassurance from their
leadership team to embrace and accept the changes being imposed by the move to new software. An
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 75
City of St. Louis Park
Tyler Technologies, Inc. Page | 41
important part of change is ensuring that impacted City of St. Louis Park resources understand the value of
the change, and why they are being asked to change.
Resources and Scheduling
▪City of St. Louis Park resources will participate in scheduled activities as assigned in the Project
Schedule.
▪City of St. Louis Park team will complete prerequisites prior to applicable scheduled activities. Failure
to do so may affect the schedule.
▪Tyler and City of St. Louis Park will provide resources to support the efforts to complete the Project as
scheduled and within the constraints of the Project budget.
▪Abbreviated timelines and overlapped Phases require sufficient resources to complete all required
work as scheduled.
▪Changes to the Project Schedule, availability of resources or changes in Scope will be requested
through a Change Request. Impacts to the triple constraints (scope, budget, and schedule) will be
assessed and documented as part of the change control process.
▪City of St. Louis Park will ensure assigned resources will follow the change control process and
possess the required business knowledge to complete their assigned tasks successfully. Should there
be a change in resources, the replacement resource should have a comparable level of availability,
change control process buy-in, and knowledge.
▪City of St. Louis Park makes timely Project related decisions to achieve scheduled due dates on tasks
and prepare for subsequent training sessions. Failure to do so may affect the schedule, as each
analysis and implementation session is dependent on the decisions made in prior sessions.
▪City of St. Louis Park will respond to information requests in a comprehensive and timely manner, in
accordance with the Project Schedule.
▪City of St. Louis Park will provide adequate meeting space or facilities, including appropriate system
connectivity, to the project teams including Tyler team members.
▪For on-site visits, Tyler will identify a travel schedule that balances the needs of the project and the
employee.
Data
▪Data will be converted as provided and Tyler will not create data that does not exist.
▪City of St. Louis Park is responsible for the quality of legacy data and for cleaning or scrubbing
erroneous legacy data.
▪Tyler will work closely with City of St. Louis Park representatives to identify business rules before
writing the conversion. City of St. Louis Park must confirm that all known data mapping from source
to target have been identified and documented before Tyler writes the conversion.
▪All in-scope source data is in data extract(s).
▪Each legacy system data file submitted for conversion includes all associated records in a single
approved file layout.
▪City of St. Louis Park will provide the legacy system data extract in the same format for each iteration
unless changes are mutually agreed upon in advance. If not, negative impacts to the schedule, budget
and resource availability may occur and/or data in the new system may be incorrect.
▪City of St. Louis Park Project Team is responsible for reviewing the converted data and reporting
issues during each iteration, with assistance from Tyler.
▪City of St. Louis Park is responsible for providing or entering test data (e.g., data for training, testing
interfaces, etc.)

Part 4: A ppendices
Conversion
Data Conversion Process for Enterprise Permitting & Licensing
Enterprise Server
Overview:
This document is an introduction to the SQL Server EG_Template database and how to populate it.
The Full Conversion is the same process, as the Templated. However, with the Full Conversion option, Tyler is
responsible for the data import instead of City of St. Louis Park.
Modularized Design:
As with the Enterprise Permitting & Licensing software, the EG_Template db is sectioned into modules. Each
contains one master table at the top of the chain (ex. ‘permit’ for the Permit module). Within each module,
various child tables branch below the master table for the associated module (ex. ‘permit_address’,
‘permit_note’, etc.).
Some tables cross multiple modules. The most notable of these involve inspections and payment
transactions.
The EG_Template database includes database diagrams, which indicate the tables and their relationships to
each module.
Required Fields:
In the Enterprise Permitting & Licensing software, some fields are “Required Fields,” and the associated
columns must be populated for records to be written to the Enterprise Permitting & Licensing db. On
occasion, these required fields will not be available in the legacy source data, so a simple default value can be
written to the EG_Template db to fulfill any NOT NULL constraint.
Dropdown picklist columns restrict the user from entering certain values in the Enterprise Permitting &
Licensing db. Conversely, drop-down fields do not have a restriction on values written to the EG_Template db.
Therefore, exact spelling or careful matching to the Enterprise Permitting & Licensing configured values is not
a requirement for fields intended for Enterprise Permitting & Licensing drop-down fields. Tyler maps the
values through a separate table to translate the values to the appropriate Enterprise Permitting & Licensing
value during conversion and collaborates with City of St. Louis Park to validate the resulting mappings during
the development phase of the conversion.
Custom Fields (any fields not available in the master table for the module in
question):
Most legacy systems have some attribute fields that are not specified in the corresponding master table
within EG_Template. Tyler refers to these as custom fields. Within each module exists a child table for such
custom fields. Since these fields are specific to the legacy system(s), City of St. Louis Park may add columns to
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 81
City of St. Louis Park
Tyler Technologies, Inc. Page | 47
these tables in EG_Template to accommodate any needed custom fields in the migration. For example,
‘permit_additional_fields’ is the table for extra fields relating to the ‘permit’ records.
Gap Handling (where legacy data doesn’t fit anywhere within EG_Template):
On occasion, legacy systems contain special features for which Enterprise Permitting & Licensing does not
account in the EG_Template db. As a result, the need may arise to develop a modified solution to address
special cases.
Contacts:
Contacts generally fall into two categories:
1. Those managed with each person/company having one contact record, kept up to date over time.
With this model, there is generally no duplication of contact records (except when created by
mistake).
2. Contacts where the user enters the contact attribute info on each permit, case, license, etc. With this
model, there is no single master record representing the contact itself and there is likely
considerable duplication of contacts.
Enterprise Permitting & Licensing stores contacts as in category 1 above. Tyler migrates contacts put into
EG_Template without a master ‘contact’ record link (category 2 above) into custom field memo boxes to
avoid duplication of contacts within the Enterprise Permitting & Licensing contact repository. For example,
when populating the permit contacts, for contacts in category 1, input the record into the ‘permit_contact’
table. Input contacts for category 2 into the ‘permit_contact_no_key’ table.
Multiple Legacy Data Sources:
When presenting multiple data sources, ensure population of EG_Template for all data sources. At the main
table level, an optional column exists for the legacy data source. Tyler provides this column to easily count or
research records originating from a particular legacy data source.
Overall Architecture of Conversion:
There are 3 SQL Server databases involved in the conversion process.
1. EG_Template (for legacy data)
3. Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (the production Enterprise Permitting & Licensing db)
4. A database containing all conversion processes and mapping tables; maintained by Tyler’s data
conversion team. This db translates the data from EG_Tempate into the Enterprise Permitting &
Licensing db.

Progression of Conversion Development Process:
Step Step Name Responsible Party Notes
1 Provide empty EG_Template
database to City of St. Louis Park
Tyler Database format will be SQL Server
2 Load legacy data into template
database
City of St. Louis Park If there are multiple legacy data sources, all should
be loaded into the one template SQL database.
3 Mapping process Tyler /City of St. Louis
Park
Dependent on completed Enterprise Permitting &
Licensing configuration
Spreadsheets will be used to communicate
mapping values.
Mapping questions may arise and both parties may
need to discuss these until answers are agreed
upon.
4 Import-specific configuration
changes to Enterprise Permitting &
Licensing
Tyler Certain fields or values may need to exist for
imported records only. These usually require some
minor Enterprise Permitting & Licensing
configuration changes.
5 Customize conversion scripts Tyler Minor customization can be expected for many
conversions, based on special requests from City of
St. Louis Park.
Any special requests would also be added into the
conversion scripts at this time.
6 Conversion execution Tyler Resulting Enterprise Permitting & Licensing
database will be provided to City of St. Louis
Park team for review.
7 Review and either sign-off or
request changes
City of St. Louis Park City of St. Louis Park team will review the data and
the interaction with it in the Enterprise Permitting
& Licensing software.
If it meets City of St. Louis Park’s needs, sign-off will
occur. If not, certain steps above may need to be
repeated until City of St. Louis Park signs off on the
conversion.

Executive Summary
Overview of the proposed solution
Tyler Technologies proposes our Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EPL) software - a comprehensive,
configurable solution designed to modernize and support the City of St. Louis Park’s permitting, inspections,
licensing, and code enforcement operations. Tyler’s EPL provides a centralized platform that streamlines
workflows, improves user experience for both staff and the public, and supports integration with existing
systems such as ProjectDox and Laserfiche. Tyler’s EPL is now in use by over 740 agencies, and in 2025, a
record 72 agencies successfully implemented (Go-Live) Tyler’s EPL.
For more than 30 years, Tyler Technologies has partnered with local governments to optimize operations
through innovative software solutions. Our depth of public-sector experience provides a strong
understanding of the regulatory, operational, and resource realities faced by municipalities, and this
perspective informs how we design, implement, and support our solutions. We recognize the importance of
making a strategic, future-focused choice that positions your organization for continued success.
Enterprise Permitting & Licensing delivers a measurable return on investment by streamlining workflows,
reducing manual effort, improving data accuracy, and leveraging intelligent automation to increase
productivity and help control operational costs.
Tyler’s commitment to clients’ long-term success has helped build trusted relationships with more than 2,400
public-sector organizations nationwide, with consistently high client-retention rates across our core solutions.
Tyler Technologies maintains an established presence across Minnesota, supporting cities, counties, and
other local governments with permitting, financial, and administrative solutions. Through Tyler Community,
state and regional user groups, and the annual Tyler Connect conference, Tyler connects the City of St. Louis
Park to a collaborative network of public-sector organizations that share best practices and lessons learned.
Why Enterprise Permitting & Licensing
From planning and permitting to inspections and compliance, Tyler's Enterprise Permitting enhances
efficiency and boosts productivity and collaboration. Mobile apps and advanced, ESRI-based GIS technology
allow fieldworkers to work more effectively, while an intuitive web portal simplifies permitting and licensing
processes for your community.

Tyler’s Community Development software simplifies operations from planning, through permitting, code
enforcement, and inspections. By minimizing manual entries and repetitive tasks, Tyler's Enterprise
Community Development application saves your staff time and reduces potentially costly errors. With mobile
functionality, your organization will optimize processing time, improving both citizen satisfaction and agency
efficiency.

collection, Business Management makes payment processes more convenient for community users, while the
automatic routing of funds reduces staff hours and the potential for clerical errors.
Key benefits and differentiators
Tyler’s Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EPL) is purpose-built to support the operational complexity,
regulatory requirements, and service expectations of mid- to large-sized municipalities like the City of St.
Louis Park. The following benefits and differentiators directly align with the City’s evaluation criteria and
operational needs.
Comprehensive, End-to-End PIMS Functionality
EPL supports the full permit, inspection, licensing, and enforcement lifecycle within a single, configurable
platform. From intake and plan review through inspections, compliance, and renewals, EPL enables
consistent, standardized processes while allowing the City to configure workflows to reflect its specific
policies and approval structures.
Proven Integration With the City’s Existing Technology Environment
EPL is designed to integrate with best-of-breed solutions already used by the City, including ProjectDox for
plan review, Laserfiche for document management, ESRI ArcGIS for spatial data, InvoiceCloud for payments,
and Office365 productivity tools. This approach minimizes disruption, protects existing investments, and
creates a connected operational ecosystem rather than a standalone system.
Superior User Experience for Staff and the Community
An intuitive staff interface reduces training time and improves productivity, while a modern public portal
enables applicants to apply online, submit documents, track status, schedule inspections, and make
payments. Mobile inspection capabilities allow field staff to access data, complete inspections, capture
photos, and enter results in real time, improving accuracy and efficiency.
Automation That Reduces Manual Effort and Operational Risk
Highly configurable automation supports intelligent routing, task assignment, notifications, and approvals. By
reducing manual handoffs and duplicate entry, EPL improves consistency, reduces processing times, and
lowers the risk of errors that can impact compliance and customer service.
GIS-Enabled Decision Support
Native ESRI-based GIS functionality provides spatial awareness across permitting, inspections, and
enforcement activities. This capability supports better coordination between departments and enhances
data-driven planning and decision-making.
Scalable, Secure, and Future-Ready Architecture
EPL is delivered as a secure, cloud-based solution that scales with demand and adapts to changing regulations
and business practices. Regular product enhancements ensure the system continues to align with industry
best practices without requiring major reinvestment or disruption.
Reduced Implementation and Long-Term Risk
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 97

municipalities nationwide. Tyler’s focus on the public sector, strong financial stability, and established
presence across Minnesota provide the City with a reliable partner committed to long-term support, ongoing
product investment, and successful system adoption.
Access to a Proven Public-Sector User Community
Through Tyler Community, state and regional user groups, and the annual Tyler Connect conference, the City
of St. Louis Park will have opportunities to collaborate with peer agencies, share best practices, and provide
input into future product direction—helping ensure the system continues to meet evolving needs.

• Summary of process
Implementation Methodology
At Tyler, successful implementations are more than an objective—they’re an expectation. To consistently
carry out implementations that are on time, within budget, and capable of meeting the unique needs of the
public sector, Tyler utilizes a proven implementation process built on three foundations:
Decades of Experience
In-House Expertise
A Globally Recognized Project Management Approach
Industry Experience
Having completed over 45,000 installations for more than 13,000 local governments, Tyler continues to lead
the industry in successful public sector implementations. By pairing a deep understanding of your specific
needs and processes with our decades of industry expertise, Tyler will provide the City with the tools and
resources you need for a successful go live. Tyler will work with the City to ensure that your organization is
well-prepared for future technology developments and releases.
In House-Expertise
As a Tyler client, you will receive ongoing support from Tyler’s in-house professionals. No one knows our
software better than we do, which is exactly why we continue to perform our own implementations.
A Globally Recognized Project Management Approach
While each project is unique, all Tyler implementations follow the same six-stage methodology. All six stages
are comprised of multiple work packages—groups of related tasks required to meet individual deliverables.
To ensure seamless execution, every work package includes a narrative description, defined objectives, tasks,
inputs, outputs/deliverables, assumptions, and a responsibility matrix.
Stage Acceptance Control Points are applied at every phase to ensure alignment with scope, budget, timeline,
and quality standards. This structured, systematic approach allows Tyler to reduce variability, mitigate risks,
and tailor solutions to your organization's unique needs.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 113
The methodology adapts to both single-phase and multiple-phase
projects. To achieve Project success, it is imperative that both clients
and Tyler commit to including the necessary leadership and
governance. During each stage of the Project, it is expected that
clients and Tyler Project teams work collaboratively to complete
tasks. An underlying principle of Tyler’s Implementation process is to
employ an iterative model where client business processes are
assessed, configured, validated, and refined cyclically in line with the
project budget. This approach is used in multiple stages and work
packages as illustrated in the graphic below.
The delivery approach is systematic, which reduces variability and
mitigates risks to ensure Project success. As illustrated, some stages, along with work packages and tasks, are
intended to be overlapping by nature to complete the Project efficiently and effectively.
Work Breakdown Structure
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is a hierarchical representation of a Project or Phase broken down into
smaller, more manageable components. The top-level components are called “Stages” and the second level
components are called “Work Packages”. The work packages, shown below each stage, contain the high-level
work to be done. The detailed Project Schedule, developed during Project/Phase Planning and finalized during
subsequent stages, lists the tasks to be completed within each work package. Each stage ends with a “Control
Point”, confirming the work performed during that stage of the Project has been accepted by the city.
Project Governance
Project governance is the management framework within which Project decisions are made. The role of
Project governance is to provide a decision-making approach that is logical, robust, and repeatable. This
allows organizations to have a structured approach for conducting its daily business in addition to project
related activities.
Project governance defines the structure for escalation of issues and risks, Change Control review and
authority, and Organizational Change Management activities. Further refinement of the governance
structure, related processes, and specific roles and responsibilities occurs during the Initiate & Plan Stage.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 114
The chart below illustrates an overall team perspective where Tyler and the City collaborate to resolve Project
challenges according to defined escalation paths. If project managers do not possess authority to determine a
solution, resolve an issue, or mitigate a risk, Tyler implementation management and the City Steering
Committee become the escalation points to triage responses prior to escalation to the City and Tyler
executive sponsors. As part of the escalation process, each Project governance tier presents
recommendations and supporting information to facilitate knowledge transfer and issue resolution. The City
and Tyler executive sponsors serve as the final escalation point.
Implementation Plan Stages
Stage 1: Initiate & Plan
The Initiate and Plan stage involves Project initiation, infrastructure, and planning. This stage creates a
foundation for the Project by identifying and establishing sequence and timing for each Phase as well as
verifying scope for the Project. This stage will be conducted at the onset of the Project, with a few unique
items being repeated for the additional Phases as needed.
Objectives:
Formally launch the project.
Establish project governance.
Define and communicate governance for Tyler.
Identify client project team.
Stage 2: Assess & Define
The Assess & Define stage will provide an opportunity to gather information related to current City business
processes. This information will be used to identify and define business processes utilized with Tyler software.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 115
City collaborates with Tyler providing complete and accurate information to Tyler staff and assisting in
analysis, understanding current workflows and business processes.
Objectives:
Provide a basic understanding of system functionality.
Prepare City for current and future state analysis.
Stage 3: Prepare Solution
During the Prepare Solution stage, information gathered during the Initiate & Plan and Assess & Define stages
will be used to install and configure the Tyler software solution. Software configuration will be validated by
the City against future state decisions defined in previous stages and processes refined as needed to ensure
business requirements are met.
Objectives:
All licensed software is installed and operational.
City is able to access the software.
Stage 4: Production Readiness
Activities in the Production Readiness stage will prepare the client team for go-live through solution
validation, the development of a detailed go-live plan and end user training. A readiness assessment will be
conducted with the City to review the status of the project and the organizations readiness for go-live.
Objectives:
Validate that the solution performs as indicated in the solution validation plan.
Ensure City organization is ready to move forward with go-live and training (if applicable).
Stage 5: Production
Following end user training the production system will be fully enabled and made ready for daily operational
use as of the scheduled date. Tyler and City will follow the comprehensive action plan laid out during Go-Live
Readiness to support go-live activities and minimize risk to the Project during go-live. Following go-live, Tyler
will work with City to verify that implementation work is concluded, post go-live activities are scheduled, and
the transition to Client Services is complete for long-term operations and maintenance of the Tyler software.
Objectives:
Execute day to day processing in Tyler software.
Client data available in Production environment.
Stage 6: Close
The Close stage signifies full implementation of all products purchased and encompassed in the Phase or
Project. City transitions to the next cycle of their relationship with Tyler (next Phase of implementation or
long-term relationship with Tyler Client Services).
Objectives:
Agreement from Tyler and City teams that activities within this phase are complete.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 116
Solution Validation
Making sure your new system works the way you need it to is paramount to the success of the
implementation. Tyler’s quality management and validation plan addresses both the project and the product,
while ensuring project objectives are met. The project teams validate the solution throughout the life of the
project to expose issues that would normally only be revealed in a production environment.
A controlled environment is created for high-level product validation, import and export interface, functional
flow, and reliability.
The goal of validation is for End Users to gain extensive product experience, develop a high level of
confidence in Tyler’s products, and understand their specific functions within the solution.
Expected benefits from the completion of validation also include:
The infrastructure of hardware and network design is thoroughly vetted
In-scope data conversions are delivered and fully integrated into the solution (if applicable)
Modifications are delivered and fully integrated into the solution (if applicable)
A managed Issues List is fully quantified
Issue tracking, resolution accountability, and completed issue resolution are necessary in a successfully
completed project. The validation phase is a shared responsibility and must be recognized as such.
Solution Validation Responsibilities- City & Tyler
Tyler implementation consultants (ICs) are responsible for updating the solution validation plan and follow-up
on all required issues. Tyler’s project manager (PM), is held accountable for ICs completing these items. City
functional leads are responsible for updating validation scripts, performing solution validation, and
documenting issues that arise during solution validation. City PMs are accountable of ensuring functional
leads complete all tasks for which they are responsible.
Go-Live Readiness Responsibilities- City & Tyler
The Tyler PM(s) are responsible for performing readiness assessments for the City and conducting go-live
planning session with the City project team. The Tyler PM(s) are also responsible for confirming procedures
for go-live issue reporting and resolution and developing a go-live checklist. Tyler’s implementation
manager(s) are ultimately accountable for ensuring Tyler PM(s) complete all tasks for which they are
responsible. Tyler’s technical services team is responsible for completing the final system infrastructure
review prior to go-live.
The City PM is responsible for ordering any peripheral hardware, where applicable. All other City team
members are consulted or kept informed throughout the go-live readiness stage.
Knowledge Transfer Approach
During implementation of our products, Tyler’s goal is to educate your resources so that they are self-
sufficient users of the solution. Tyler uses a train-the-trainer model to transfer knowledge. Tyler’s project
team will provide comprehensive training to your team, which includes the project manager, functional leads,
and power users. Tyler provides one occurrence, or more, of each scheduled training or implementation
topic. The first time focuses on the process steps, while the second time, the training is more advanced.
Sessions for each topic will also cover configuration for functional leads and power users, so that future
changes can be easily made.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 117
Ensuring comprehension of daily job functions is essential to a successful go-live and product adoption. The
goal of our train-the-trainer approach is to expose the most sophisticated users to the system first, so system
configuration, converted data, and new procedures are thoroughly vetted by your team before being
introduced to end users. During training, Tyler implementation consultants measure knowledge transfers
through assessments and lead mini parallel processes and validations.

using your organization’s own data.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 120
A mutually developed education plan lays out the process of transferring knowledge between you and Tyler.
The purpose of the education plan is to:
Communicate the process to stakeholders and functional leaders
Answer specific questions (where classrooms will be established, what database environment will be
utilized, etc.)
Establish action items and link project personnel as owners
Define measurement criteria to ensure the plan has been successfully followed
Your organization is set up for success with Tyler’s train the trainer approach to training and education plan
developed over years of industry experience.
Responsibilities
Tyler knows the value of being prepared for the use of our software in production. Our goal is to partner with
you and lend our expertise based on experience, in order to allow your resources to be successful at go-live.
Both teams collaborate on all aspects of training, discussed, and documented during the planning stage of the
project. The expectation is for Tyler to provide one or more occurrence of each scheduled training. You will
be responsible for the logistics of the training by completing such tasks as scheduling resources and ensuring
facilities are available. These sessions are to be attended by your key staff members (i.e. functional leads and
power users) so that they can then disseminate the information they learn to others in your organization if or
when necessary
Documentation
Tyler Technologies provides structured training documentation to support user adoption and effective system
use throughout and after implementation.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 121
Training materials and project-related documentation are made available through a centralized project portal,
allowing City staff to access, store, and reference relevant information in a single location. This ensures that
users have ongoing access to the most current materials throughout the project lifecycle and after go-live.
Training documentation is developed to align with system functionality and user roles, supporting both end
users and system administrators. Materials are designed to reinforce key processes and workflows and may
include step-by-step guides, reference materials, and supporting documentation to assist users in performing
their daily tasks.
Throughout the implementation, Tyler Project Managers oversee the development and delivery of training
documentation, ensuring that materials are aligned with project activities and user needs. As project
deliverables are completed, the implementation team monitors staff participation and material absorption to
assess the effectiveness of training efforts and identify any areas where additional documentation or support
may be needed.
This approach ensures that training documentation is accessible, relevant, and aligned with project progress,
supporting users in understanding and adopting the new system.
• User communications/change management documents
User communications/change management document
Tyler Technologies uses a structured and collaborative approach to user communications and change
management to support successful system adoption and minimize disruption to City operations.
Project Communication
During implementation, the City will be provided access to a centralized project portal. This portal serves as
the primary communication hub and allows both Tyler and City staff to plan, store, and access project
documentation, track progress, and maintain transparency throughout the implementation. The portal is
jointly maintained by Tyler and the City and remains available for up to one year after go-live.
In addition to the project portal, Tyler establishes a defined communication plan that outlines communication
channels, meeting cadence, stakeholder roles, and escalation paths. This ensures consistent, timely
communication across all project participants.
Change Management Approach
Tyler’s change management approach focuses on preparing City staff and stakeholders for new processes and
system functionality. Throughout the project, Tyler Project Managers assigned to each phase work closely
with City stakeholders to communicate upcoming changes, set expectations, and support user readiness.
As project deliverables are completed, the implementation team generates detailed reports that provide
insight into project progress, staff participation, and completion of key tasks. These reports are reviewed by
Tyler Project Managers to identify any gaps, risks, or areas requiring adjustment. Findings are communicated
to the City along with recommended actions to maintain alignment with project goals.
User Communication and Readiness
User communications are integrated throughout the implementation lifecycle and include updates on project
milestones, system changes, and training activities. Tyler works with the City to ensure that end users are
informed and prepared for system adoption.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 122
If issues arise during the project, defined escalation paths are followed in accordance with the
communication plan to ensure timely resolution and minimal impact to the project timeline.
This structured approach to communication and change management supports effective collaboration, clear
expectations, and a smooth transition to the new system.
Prepare a schedule showing key phases, deliverables and milestones for the project.
Project Planning
Project Planning is an important piece of any implementation. Tyler takes a custom approach to every project
we lead. The project schedule is developed collaboratively with both project teams in order to meet your
needs, while keeping in mind Tyler’s guidelines for implementation. Periodic project meetings will be
scheduled where changes in scope, project length, or cost will be reviewed.
Tyler is open to discussing the project schedule in more detail and working out a mutually agreed upon plan
that considers all project risks, requests and resource constraints.
Tyler recommends a phased implementation approach, staggering start and live dates for each phase of the
project. Live dates will be targets but should not place unnecessary constraints on the project. The following
schedule takes into consideration the City’s goals and Tyler’s recommended approach, and assumes the
product will be used as is, without additional go-live customizations.
Proposed Project Phases
Enterprise Permitting & Licensing 12 Month Timeline
Describe the data migration strategy and tools.
Tyler Technologies uses a structured, collaborative approach to data migration designed to ensure accuracy,
completeness, and a smooth transition from legacy systems. Tyler’s data experts conduct hundreds of data
conversions each year and bring extensive experience in data extraction, transformation, and validation.
The data migration strategy includes the following components:
•Data assessment and planning
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 123
o Work with the City to identify data sources, including the current PIMS application and
related systems
o Define scope of data to be migrated and establish priorities
o Confirm data formats and readiness for conversion
•Data mapping and transformation
o Tyler’s conversion programmers translate legacy data into the appropriate fields in the new
system
o Mapping is defined and validated in collaboration with City stakeholders
•Data extraction and tools
o The City will provide data from legacy systems in a usable format such as MSSQL database
backup (.bak), ASCII files, MS Access, or MS Excel
o Standard data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) processes are used to convert
and load data into the system
•Data cleansing and validation
o Tyler guides the City through review of specific data elements after conversion
o The City identifies and reports discrepancies
o Tyler collaborates with the City to resolve issues and ensure data accuracy
•Testing and user acceptance
o Conduct test conversions and validation cycles
o Support user acceptance testing (UAT) to confirm data supports permitting, inspections, and
reporting processes
•Final migration and go-live support
o Execute final data migration aligned with the project timeline
o Ensure minimal disruption to operations during transition
•Post-migration support
o Provide support to address any post-go-live data issues
o Ensure data is complete, reconciled, and usable for ongoing operations
Data Conversion Standards and Responsibilities
Achieving a successful migration is a shared responsibility between Tyler and the City. Tyler provides
experienced data conversion resources and tools, while the City is responsible for:
•Providing data in a readable format suitable for conversion
•Reviewing converted data for accuracy and completeness
•Assisting in identifying and resolving discrepancies
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system softwarePage 124
This collaborative approach ensures that only clean, validated, and reconciled data is migrated into the new
system.
Integration capability with a variety of existing software applications, including ProjectDox, Laserfiche,
ArcGIS, InvoiceCloud, OpenGov budgeting, JDE Enterprise interface processing capabilities, and Office365
applications; and the city’s property data system that is proprietary software provided by a local
government consortium.
Enterprise Permitting & Licensing includes native integration support with ProjectDox, ArcGIS and Office365.
• Enterprise Permitting & Licensing’s eReviews suite integrates natively with ProjectDox for digital plan
document mark-ups and real-time collaborative staff reviews. Applicants submit plans and supporting
documents directly into the permit record, and reviewers complete routing, markups/comments, re-
submittals, and approval steps within the same system of record that manages the permit/plan.
• Enterprise Permitting & Licensing is designed to natively consume Esri ArcGIS REST services (e.g.,
map/geometry services and related capabilities) to support mapping, parcel/location selection, and
GIS-driven workflow decisions. All communication with ArcGIS takes place via ArcGIS map services;
the integration with ArcGIS consumes feature sets and layers that the City chooses to publish.
• Enterprise Permitting & Licensing supports native integration with an Outlook/Exchange calendar
instance, including system event synchronization for inspections and meetings, plus conflict checks
upon scheduling. The interface is configured via the Microsoft Graph API using registration and
authentication credentials obtained and maintained by the City. The interface is one-way only (send).
For document management and financial transactions, Tyler offers its own natively integrated solutions for
the City’s consideration.
• Tyler Content Manager acts as a centralized content repository that could replace the default
attachment/document repository used by Laserfiche, enabling the City to manage permitting and
licensing documents within a unified Tyler ecosystem. In this model, the two systems operate
through a built-in integration designed to streamline document capture, storage, retrieval, and
security without requiring the City to build and maintain a custom interface to a third-party
document system.
• Tyler Payments is natively integrated with Enterprise Permitting & Licensing and would provide a
single vendor relationship for all aspects of payment processing. Tyler Payments offers native real-
time integration features including enhanced reconciliation actions and eliminates the need for
manual integration. Tyler Payments is available as a solution for both back-office and online payment
transactions.
For all other third-party systems, and for any that the City wished to keep in place of our natively integrated
alternatives, Tyler’s Enterprise Permitting & Licensing software suite supports an industry standard
architecture of open APIs architected in jSON RESTful services that expose business objects as a web service
and provide logic, rules, roles, and security. The system can integrate with third-party systems and external
data sources using standard REST-based APIs for bi-directional interfaces for providing and consuming
information to/from the external systems; the APIs are synchronous, returning requested results as HTTP
responses. Optionally, Enterprise Permitting & Licensing is pre-mapped to SnapLogic IPaaS for the facilitation
of low or no-code integration development; Tyler is an authorized SnapLogic reseller.

Ownership and portability of data entered in the system.
•Note: The city expects to retain control of the data it enters in the PIMS application and to have the
ability to export the data without vendor involvement, either for its own purposes or transfer to a
different PIMS application.
The client retains full ownership of all client data. Data is accessible at all times through secure, role-based
application access and may be exported without Tyler assistance using available application tools and
interfaces. Export capabilities support industry-standard, non-proprietary structures to ensure data
portability. Upon request or contract termination, Tyler provides data extraction and delivery in accordance
with contractual terms.

purchased, Tyler will establish the connection, troubleshoot as needed, and provide training for application configuration. The client is responsible for
designing and implementing the questionnaires.
Implementation Notes
Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EPL) Implementation: This implementation follows a shared services model. Tyler is responsible for configuring 5 case
types as examples, with the client completing the remaining configuration. Each unique case type configured by Tyler is estimated to require 25-30
hours for definition, configuration, and validation. Tyler will also enable the application's standard Geo Rules and standard automation events. The client
will manage all additional configuration tasks.
Tyler's implementation team will primarily handle the following tasks:
• Training on EPL functionality.
• Providing training, best practices, and consultation on software configuration and maintenance for EPL and Civic Access applications.
• Establish connections between EPL, Civic Access, and the client-published GIS map services and configure EPL’s Live Link component.
• Configure and validate core EPL functionalities, including global settings and initial user roles.
• Configure and validate the payment system for EPL and Civic Access or enable electronic payments based on client-supplied payment gateway
information (where applicable, depending on the contract and the client securing an approved payment gateway).
• Configure and validate integrations between Tyler products (Enterprise ERP, Cashiering, Content Manager, Enterprise Service Requests, and others as
applicable based on the contract).
Client's Responsibilities The client's Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) are expected to be available approximately 25-50% of each week (depending on the
number of processes) throughout the project to perform configuration and validation, in addition to time spent with the Tyler team. The client’s
configuration team should plan to dedicate 30-45 hours per process following the completion of configuration training. The client’s SMEs will primarily
be responsible for the following tasks:
• Configuring Case Types and Work Classes, including all associated module components.
• Set up system configurations (e.g., Holidays, Zones, Hold Types, Hearing Types, etc.).
• Configure dynamic custom fields for Report Setup.

• Configure users and user roles.
• Configure Workflow components and Workflow Templates (e.g., Steps, Actions, Submittal Types, Item Reviews, etc.).
• Customizing and administering Civic Access (e.g., allowed Case Types, Application instructions, Geo Rules, Themes, Headers, Menus, Security Settings,
etc.).
• Configure Automation Events (e.g., Intelligent Objects, standard Intelligent Queries) to manage tasks such as emails, tasks, Geo Rules, etc.
• Manage any additional configuration tasks as the client desires.
Integration Notes
Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EPL) API Implementation & Support: Tyler’s services for EPL API implementation are limited to delivering the API and
providing guidance to the client’s integration development team. Tyler does not offer integration development services for EPL API/SDK toolkits. The
client, or a chosen third-party integrator, will be responsible for all development work related to the API/SDK.
Integration with Executive Insights: Tyler will establish the connection and verify the data exchange between Executive Insights and EPL. No additional
integrations are included in the scope of this implementation.
Conversion and Reports Notes
Full Conversion: The Client will provide Tyler with up to [1] legacy data source containing data related to Permitting, Planning, Licensing, Inspection, and
Code Enforcement from the legacy system. The Client is responsible for extracting the data from their legacy system(s) and delivering it to Tyler in an
acceptable format. Tyler will not manipulate or correct the legacy data on behalf of the Client; the Client must resolve any data quality issues before
submission. Tyler will populate the Data Conversion Template database (DCT-DB) with the legacy data for conversion into EPL. Tyler will use the
completed DCT-DB to produce a mapping document to enable the Client to correlate legacy data fields with EPL fields. The Client is responsible for all
data mapping decisions and document completion. The DCT-DB and mapping document provided by the client will translate the legacy data into the
EPL software, constituting a “conversion pass.” The scope of this implementation includes four (4) conversion passes: two (2) evaluation passes, one (1)
simulated go-live pass, and one (1) final golive pass. No additional conversion services are included in the scope of this implementation. Any further data
sources will require a change order.
Custom Reports: No custom reports, forms, or letters are included in this implementation.

Proposers may offer ideas and services outside the scope of services; however, all such exceptions
should be specifically noted and explained.
St. Louis Park, MN (“Client”)
Request for Proposals / Quote (RFP/Q) Permit and Inspection Management System
Tyler’s Statement of Exceptions to the Procurement Documents
Tyler’s Proposal is based on the delivery of the requested software and services according to Tyler’s standard
implementation methodology and Tyler’s standard contract. That methodology, and that contract, have been
refined and enhanced over Tyler’s many years of operation in the public sector information technology
market. Tyler’s submission of its Proposal does not waive Tyler’s right to negotiate any and all terms to the
mutual satisfaction of the parties. Tyler will be obligated to provide products and services only upon
execution, and under the terms and conditions, of the mutually negotiated contract between Tyler and the
Client.
Tyler considers its implementation methodology and its contract to be the starting point for those
negotiations. A link to, or copy of, Tyler’s standard contract is included for your reference. If you ask to
incorporate your procurement documents and our Proposal documents into the contract package, we will
agree to do so as long as the order of priority is: (a) the final, negotiated contract; (b) our Proposal
documentation; and (c) your procurement documentation.
Tyler is providing representative exceptions to standard procurement terms and conditions for your review.
This list may not include all RFP terms and conditions Tyler may wish to negotiate if selected, and it does not
negate any of the expectations Tyler has stated above.
• Contract Document: Tyler expects to use the standard Tyler contract as the basis for beginning contract
negotiations, as it contains language specific to the software industry, such as license grant and
intellectual property infringement. Tyler recognizes that there may be clauses of particular importance to
the Client that may not be included in the Tyler contract. Tyler is amenable to accommodating the Client’s
contract requests by incorporating mutually agreed clauses into the Tyler contract.
• Insurance: Tyler has provided its evidence of insurance certificate. Tyler’s insurance program is
established at a corporate level and is not subject to change for individual customers. While performing
services under an agreement with the Client, we will agree to maintain the following levels of insurance:
(a) Commercial General Liability (CGL) of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate;
(b) Automobile Liability of $1,000,000; (c) Professional Liability (including Cyber Liability) of $1,000,000;
(d) Workers’ Compensation complying with applicable statutory requirements; and (e) Excess/Umbrella
Liability of $5,000,000 per occurrence and in the aggregate.
• Ownership: We do not agree to work-for-hire provisions. Tyler retains all intellectual property and
confidentiality rights in and to our proprietary and/or confidential information and deliverables.
• Public Disclosure: Tyler will comply with applicable public records laws. Disclosure may be made only to
the extent disclosure is required by law, provided, however, that the Client shall give prompt notice of the
service of process or other documentation that underlies such requirement to Tyler so that it may obtain
a protective order or otherwise protect the confidentiality of Tyler’s confidential information.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 137
• Pricing: Tyler adheres to its pricing as set forth in its Proposal. Any fees for subsequent periods of time or
additional services not addressed in Tyler’s Proposal shall be at Tyler’s then-current rates. Unless noted
otherwise, our services rates do not include travel expenses, which are separately estimated and are
payable in accordance with our then-current Business Travel Policy. Unless expressly indicated otherwise,
the fees we have quoted do not include any taxes.
• Information Security and Privacy: Information security is important to Tyler and to every agency and
jurisdiction we serve. Tyler agrees to comply with all relevant federal and state laws and regulations on
security and privacy, and its handling of security breaches, including notification to customers, conforms
to applicable state and federal law. Tyler maintains industry-standard information technology and
security policies and practices at a company-wide level, including a documented security incident
response plan, that are not subject to change on a client-by-client basis. For hosted services, Tyler utilizes
industry standard public cloud deployment methods that provide the highest commercially reasonable
system availability and performance. Tyler implements systems utilizing shared responsibility models
where responsibility for physical infrastructure is provided by the public cloud provider, application
deployment is managed by Tyler, and application configuration is maintained by the customer, where
applicable. Tyler follows security best practices dictated and defined by the following three assurance
audits: SOX-404 Financial and IT General Controls, PCI Security Council PA-DSS/PCI-DSS, and the AICPA
SSAE-21 SOC 1 & SOC 2 Assurance Audits. Our security policy is based on the full NIST Cybersecurity
Framework and is reviewed during each audit.
• Compliance with Laws and Regulations: We will comply with all applicable state and federal laws,
ordinances, orders, decrees, and regulations. Tyler reserves the right to review and discuss with the Client
specific laws and regulations that the Client wishes to incorporate into the final contract. The quoted fees
are based, in part, on the cost of compliance with applicable laws existing as of the Proposal submission
date. Should laws applicable to Tyler’s performance under the contract change, Tyler reserves the right
to, for example, seek a change order for the additional work, time and/or cost that may be required to
comply with the new law, ordinance or regulation. To the extent compliance requires a modification to
the Tyler software, Tyler will provide that modification according to the provisions set forth in the Tyler
contract or as otherwise agreed to by the parties.
• Termination: Tyler's standard practice is not to include a termination for convenience provision in its
contracts, given the significant investments made by both parties to the procurement and
implementation. Tyler relies instead on its termination provisions for cause, non-appropriation, and/or
force majeure. The Client may terminate the contract for cause in the event Tyler fails to cure a material
breach according to the terms of the dispute resolution process set forth in Tyler’s standard contract.
The Client will make payment to Tyler for all products, services and expenses delivered or incurred
through the effective date of termination that were not previously disputed under the contract. Payment
for disputed products, services and expenses, and the Client’s remedies, will be determined through the
mutually agreed dispute resolution process.
• Warranties: Tyler provides a comprehensive, objective software warranty tied to functional descriptions
of the Tyler software. Tyler does not provide implied warranties, including the implied warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, as they are subjective. For as long as the Client is
current on paying its fees, Tyler warrants that the Tyler software will substantially conform to the
functional descriptions of the Tyler software contained in Tyler’s Proposal, or their functional equivalent.
Future functionality may be updated, modified, or otherwise enhanced through our maintenance and
support services, and the governing functional descriptions for such future functionality will be set forth
in our then-current documentation. Tyler warrants that it will perform services in a professional,
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5c)
Title: Approve contract for replacement permit and inspection management system software Page 138
workmanlike manner, consistent with industry standards. In the event Tyler provides services that do not
conform to this warranty, Tyler will re-perform the services at no additional cost to the Client. Tyler
passes through to its clients all warranties received on third party products. Tyler disclaims all other
warranties.
•Limitation of Liability: Except as otherwise expressly set forth in the agreement, Tyler’s liability for
damages arising out of the contract, whether based on a theory of contract or tort, including negligence
and strict liability, shall be limited to the lesser of (a) Client’s actual direct damages or (b) the amounts
paid by Client under the contract for the then-current term. To the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, in no event shall Tyler be liable for any special, incidental, punitive, indirect, or
consequential damages whatsoever, even if Tyler has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
•Indemnification: Tyler shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Client from and against any and all
direct claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and
costs) from third parties for personal injury or property damage arising from Tyler's negligence or willful
misconduct; or Tyler’s violation of a law applicable to Tyler’s performance under the contract. The Client
must notify Tyler promptly in writing of the claim and give Tyler sole control over its defense or
settlement. The Client agrees to provide Tyler with reasonable assistance, cooperation, and information
in defending the claim at Tyler’s expense.
•Personnel: Tyler will provide information on representative Tyler personnel. We are unable to assign
personnel to a project until Tyler is selected and a contract is signed, in an effort to most effectively use
resources.
•Audit: The Client may audit Tyler’s books and records relating directly to the contract once per year on
one-week advance written notice, and at Client’s expense. Unless otherwise agreed, the location of the
records will be the Tyler office servicing the contract. The audit will not include access to Tyler’s
personnel records, or conditions of employment.
•Milestone Payments: Tyler will agree to a retention schedule for at least a portion of the fees payable for
implementation services, with such retention to be invoiced and paid on the live production date of the
software, by phase.
•Services: Tyler’s Proposal contains estimates of the amount of services and associated expenses needed,
based on the size and scope of the Client’s project. The actual amount of services and expenses depends
on such factors as the Client’s level of involvement in the project and the speed of knowledge transfer. If
required, Tyler will provide a not-to-exceed quote once the scope of services has been finalized. Unless
noted otherwise, our services rates do not include travel expenses, which are separately estimated and
are payable in accordance with our then-current Business Travel Policy.
•Any other relevant information that supports the submitted proposal.

Executive summary
Title: Approve Park Place East approvals extension for 5775 Wayzata Boulevard – Ward 4
Recommended action: Motion to approve extension of the special permit amendment,
conditional use permit and final plat for 5775 Wayzata Boulevard until June 15, 2027.
Policy consideration: Should the city allow Trigild IVL, LLC (the receiver for the 5775 Wayzata
Blvd. property) more time to record the final plat and commence construction for the Park
Place East pad-site development?
Summary: Per city code, within two years of city council approval, projects related to
conditional use permits (CUP) and special permits (SP) are required to have completed
construction for the project (or substantially show on-going progress with construction), or the
approval will be revoked or cancelled. Applicants/owners may request an extension of the
approval from the city council.
On Dec. 18, 2023, the Park Place East pad-site development was approved for a SP amendment
and CUP via Resolutions No. 23-172 and 23-173. The SP amendment updated the site plan of
the Park Place East office property by adding two one-story commercial buildings on a new
parcel in the southeast corner. The CUP allows in-vehicle services on the site. On June 3, 2024,
city council approved a final plat for Park Plaza 2nd Addition to create a new commercial lot
along 16th Street. Following these approvals, the project stalled due to the property at 5775
Wayzata Blvd. going into receivership. The receiver, Trigild IVL, requested an extension of the
CUP, SP and final plat in December 2025. On Dec. 15, 2025, the city council approved the
request extending all three approvals to Dec. 15, 2026.
The receiver is working with new developers to move the project forward but requires
additional time and has requested another extension of the three approvals to June 15, 2027.
Hempel Real Estate has a purchase agreement with the receiver and is scheduled to close on its
acquisition of the new commercial parcel in mid-September 2026. Following closing, Hempel
intends to proceed with the approved development. The requested extension would provide
the developer the necessary time to complete the required pre-construction activities and
commence construction following the anticipated closing in September 2026.
Staff recommend all three approvals be extended to June 15, 2027.
Financial or budget considerations: Not applicable.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to being a city that delivers reliable
services, uses city resources responsibly, operates transparently and builds strong relationships
with residents.

Re: 5775 Wayzata Boulevard, St. Louis Park, Minnesota - Request for Extension of
Special Permit Amendment, Conditional Use Permit and Final Plat Approvals
Dear Ms. Chamberlain:
This office is counsel to Hempel Holdings, LLC (the “Developer”). On behalf of the
Developer, we respectfully request an extension of the approvals relating to the development of
the Property through June 15, 2027.
Background
On December 18, 2023, the City approved Resolution No. 23-172 amending and restating
Resolutions Nos. 06-176 and 04-138 granting amendment to existing special permit under Section
36-37 of the St. Louis Park zoning ordinance to allow the construction of two buildings at 5775
Wayzata Boulevard (the “Property”).
On the same date, the City approved a Conditional Use Permit pursuant to Resolution No.
23-173, allowing in-vehicle services as part of the proposed development.
Subsequently, on June 3, 2024, the City approved the final plat for Park Plaza 2nd Addition,
5775 Wayzata Boulevard.
Following these approvals, the project was delayed due to circumstances outside of the
Developer's control. In particular, the Property was placed into receivership, which prevented the
anticipated development and construction activities from proceeding in accordance with the
original project schedule. The court-appointed receiver, Trigild IVL, LLC, is now working with
the Developer in connection with the disposition and redevelopment of the Property.
The Developer is currently scheduled to close on its acquisition of the new commercial
parcel and related interests from the receiver in mid-September 2026. Following closing, the
Developer intends to proceed with the approved development.
City council meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5d)
Title: Approve Park Place East approvals extension for 5775 Wayzata Boulevard - Ward 4 Page 2

Requested Extension
The Developer respectfully requests that the City extend the expiration dates of:
the Special Permit amendment approved pursuant to Resolution No. 23-172;
the Conditional Use Permit approved pursuant to Resolution No. 23-173; and
the final plat approval for Park Plaza 2nd Addition approved June 3, 2024,
through June 15, 2027.
The requested extension is necessary to provide the Developer with a reasonable
opportunity to complete the required pre-construction activities and commence construction
following the anticipated September 2026 closing.
Because the acquisition is not expected to close until mid-September 2026, the Developer
will not have sufficient time to complete the required work before the current December 15, 2026
deadline. Moreover, commencing construction immediately following a September closing would
not be practical given the approaching winter construction season. Commencing substantial site
work in late fall would create significant scheduling, construction, and weather-related constraints
and could result in the project having to suspend construction during winter conditions.
An extension through June 15, 2027 will allow the Developer to close on the Property,
complete the necessary due diligence, permitting, engineering, site preparation and other pre-
construction activities, and commence construction during the spring 2027 construction season in
a manner that is consistent with the City's prior approvals.
Importantly, the Developer is not requesting any substantive modification to the previously
approved development. The requested extension is intended solely to preserve the City's existing
approvals while the Property transitions from receivership to the Developer and to provide
sufficient time for the approved development to proceed.
The Developer appreciates the City's consideration of this request and respectfully requests
that the City approve an extension of the Special Permit amendment, Conditional Use Permit and
final plat approval for Park Plaza 2nd Addition through June 15, 2027.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or require any additional
information regarding this request. We appreciate the City's continued cooperation and look
forward to moving the Park Place East development forward.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Nicholas J. Monson

Discussion
Background:
History
In 1996, the city council approved a resolution authorizing Special Service District (SSD) 1. Since
then, five additional service districts have been set up within the City (SSDs 1-4 are along
Excelsior Boulevard, SSD 5 is along Park Place Boulevard near West End and SSD 6 is along W.
36th Street near Hoiggard Village). City staff provide management services for the service
districts.
Present considerations:
Budget and service charge overview
Annually, the city council must set a service charge for the district following a public hearing on
the proposed charge. The service charges are used to fund the maintenance activities in each
district. The notice of this public hearing was published on the city’s website and in the Sun
Sailor on July 30 and August 13, 2026. The public hearing notice was sent to all property owners
within each district.
Special Service District 1 multi-year service charge was for ten years expiring in 2026. Service
district members have shown interest in extending the District beyond 2026. Staff sent a
petition to each property owner to approve service charges commencing 2027 through and
including 2036. As required by law, the city has received signed petitions from the owners of at
least 25% of the properties subject to the proposed service charge and at least 25% of the land
area.
A summary of proposed 2027 budget and service charges are below:
• SSD 1: budget and service charges proposed at $117,196; no increase
• SSD 2: budget and service charges proposed at $52,137; no increase
• SSD 3: budget and service charges proposed at $56,686; no increase
• SSD 4: budget and service charges proposed at $29,591; no increase
• SSD 5: budget and service charges proposed at $35,126; no increase

Executive summary
Title: Public hearing for first reading of ordinance adopting fees for 2027
Recommended action: Motion to approve first reading of ordinance adopting fees for 2027 and
set second reading for Sept. 22, 2026.
Policy consideration: Is the council supportive of the proposed fees?
Summary: Each year, city fees are reviewed by departments as part of the budget process. Fees
are reviewed based on comparison to other cities in the metro area, changes in regulations,
and to make sure our business costs are covered for corresponding services. When possible,
staff try to stay in line with inflation. Inflationary expenses for the city currently are around
3.5%. Most of our fee increases are set at inflation. The city council is asked to approve
Appendix A items because those are within our city code. The remaining city fees are largely
utility-based and are set administratively to support efficient operational and cost recovery
practices.
The second reading and adoption of this ordinance is scheduled for Sept. 22, 2026. If approved,
the fee changes will be effective Jan. 1, 2027.
Financial or budget considerations: The proposed fee changes have been incorporated into the
preliminary 2027 budget.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Discussion
Background: St. Louis Park city code Sec. 1-19 references how fees are set. Fees included in the
attached ordinance are listed as Appendix A of the city code. Other fees are set administratively
and reviewed annually by city departments. Department directors have authority to set fees for
programs and services. Each department director has reviewed the fees listed in Appendix A of
the city code. Recommendations are included in the attached ordinance.
The council received a staff report and presentation on Aug. 3, 2026, regarding the preliminary
base budget for general fund projections for 2027. These fees align with those projections.
Utility fees for 2027 have been calculated to fund the utility capital costs and ongoing
operational costs included in the city’s Capital Improvement Plan. Full funding for these capital
projects relies on the approval of the annual fee increase included in this schedule of 7.0% for
water, 3.5% sewer, 1.5% storm water and 7.5% for solid waste fees. A separate study session is
scheduled for this evening, Aug. 17, 2026, to discuss utility funds and their rates.
Present considerations: The administrative services, communications & technology, community
development, engineering, fire, public works, parks and recreation, and police departments
have each reviewed and analyzed the proposed fee adjustments, additions, and/or removals
that are shown in Appendix A (attached). The 2027 proposed fee adjustments reflect
administrative costs of providing services and remain comparable with neighboring cities.
The following fees have been eliminated from the 2027 fee schedule:
•Duplicate DVD, 5+ copies (ParkTV Program)
•Duplicate video USB (ParkTV Program)
•Open hockey admission
•Open hockey ten punch pass
•Printing size 24 x 36
•Energy Benchmarking
The following fees are newly proposed for 2027:
•Printing sizes 24 x 24 and 22 x 34
Next steps: The second reading and adoption of this ordinance is scheduled for Sept. 22, 2026.
If approved, the fee changes will be effective Jan. 1, 2027.

Executive summary
Title: Police Advisory Commission annual meeting with council
Recommended action: None at this time.
Policy consideration: Does the council have any work direction for this commission?
Summary: The August 2026 boards and commission check-in with city council features the
Police Advisory Commission (PAC), represented by chair Karl Gamradt and vice chair Saul
Eugene. The staff liaison for this commission is Lt. Matt Blomsness.
The PAC is one of the five advisory boards and commissions whose purpose is to advise the city
council on strengthening community awareness of police services, expanding opportunities for
resident involvement and improving communications between the police department and the
community. Additionally, the PAC reviews community needs and develops initiatives promoting
safety, education and engagement.
This discussion will include a summary of the commission’s most recent approved work plan,
highlighting completed items, ongoing projects and areas still in progress. The focus of this
check-in will be on opportunities for council feedback, guidance on work plan priorities, and
any additional direction the council would like the commission to consider moving forward.
The next scheduled check-in on Sept. 15, 2026 will feature the Community Technology Advisory
Commission.
Financial or budget considerations: None at this time.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to being a city that delivers reliable
services, uses city resources responsibly, operates transparently and builds strong relationships
with residents.

Initiative description: Community connections through town halls
Hosting localized town hall conversations with residents to offer a space for open dialogue focused on building strong networks of relationships and
communication pathways. These would be information in/out sessions focused on: 1) listening to residents’ thoughts about public safety in their
community, and 2) providing residents with information about safety-related trends and tips for their area, introducing them to the SLP PD’s
transparency & outreach efforts, and providing residents with contacts/connections to community resources (e.g. SLP PD contacts, social work,
behavioral health, domestic violence, etc). This would also provide excellent opportunities to connect with/engage block captains, neighborhood
association leaders, and other stakeholder groups in the planning and presentation of information to their communities.

Title: Conveyance of city-owned parcel to Hennepin County
Recommended action: None at this time, report for informational purposes only.
Policy consideration: The council will be asked to provide direction on conveyance of
ownership of 3240 Library Lane to Hennepin County.
Summary: Staff requests council consideration to resolve a title cloud at 3240 Library Lane. On
Sept. 9, 1968, the City of St. Louis Park agreed to sell the property to Hennepin County for use
as a library via a contract for deed (Ordinance No. 1041). However, the final quit claim deed
was never recorded with the Hennepin County Recorder’s Office and neither the city or
Hennepin County have records indicating that the purchase was completed.
Financial or budget considerations: The city will incur legal and title work costs to record the
conveyance. It is suggested that Hennepin County be asked to cover all city expenses
by completing the title transfer and, at a minimum, the original purchase price.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Title: Conveyance of city-owned parcel to Hennepin County
Discussion
Background: In 1941, the City of St. Louis Park became owner of the parcel at 3240 Library
Lane by a quit claim deed. A reference to the property location is attached to this report.
On Sept. 9, 1968, the City of St. Louis Park agreed to sell the property to Hennepin County on a
contract for deed (Ordinance No. 1041). The county agreed to purchase the property for a total
of $190,405.17. The initial payment of $98,000 was due at the time of ordinance approval and
the balance was to be paid annually, at 5% interest over 15 years. Upon final payment, the city
would transfer title to Hennepin County by quit claim deed. Title transfer did not occur.
City staff discovered the owner discrepancy during routine record reviews. We notified county
staff who also reviewed the title record and they formally changed back to the city as the
owner. We also reviewed records on payment history and found no evidence of payment. We
contacted county staff to likewise review their historic record. Both offices found evidence of
the 1968 agreement intent as indicated by Ordinance No. 1041 approved Sept. 9, 1968. Neither
office, however, found documentation indicating payments were made. Neither
jurisdiction followed up in the early 1980’s on the process to convey title.
Present considerations: It is in the City of St. Louis Park’s best interest to
accurately maintain property and records which includes insurance and liability.
Next steps: Staff notes the following information and options for council consideration and
ultimately, direction:
1. Given the historical records, council directions on property disposition and title transfer
are needed. Should council decide to convey at no cost, it is strongly suggested that the
county reimburse the city for all legal costs for transfer.
2. If council deems payment is required, the current 2026 assessed market value is
$2,943,000 (land at 993,000 + improvements at 1,950,000). Status is tax exempt at this
time, although with title update, a new exemption application would be required.
3. If council deems payment is necessary, options below are made for your reference:
a. Full price of $190,405.17 as agreed upon in 1968. No interest charged.
b. Current value of the land $993,000.
c. Full price plus interest at 5% (per the 1968 agreement) = $3,073,708.10.
4. The city assessor recognizes and appreciates the variety of relationship layers between a
city and a county. As such, the city assessor suggests the library title issue be resolved
with conveyance to the county for their continued operations.
Pending direction from the council regarding conditions placed on the conveyance, the city
attorney’s office will process the title transfer from the City of St. Louis Park to Hennepin
County.

Title: Utility rate discussion
Recommended action: None at this time. The first reading of the ordinance adopting utility
fees for 2027 is scheduled for Sept. 8, 2026, at which time the council is presumed to set the
second reading for Sept.22, 2026.
Policy consideration: Does council accept the staff recommended proposed utility billing rates
for 2027?
Summary: Each year, city fees are reviewed by departments as part of the budget process. Fees
are reviewed based on comparison to other cities in the metro area, changes in regulations,
and to make sure our business costs are covered for corresponding services. The city has four
utility funds: Water, Sewer, Storm Water and Solid Waste. These funds are called “business
type” funds as they operate without the reliance of the property tax levy. These funds are
primarily funded by the utility revenue generated. These funds incur capital-related expenses
and operating-related expenses. To ensure these funds receive sufficient revenue to continue
operations, rate increases are recommended for 2027.
The first reading and public hearing of this ordinance is scheduled for Sept. 8, 2026. Presuming
it is adopted on Sept. 22, 2026, the fee changes will be effective Jan. 1, 2027.

Title: Utility rate discussion
Discussion
Background: The 2027 utility fee recommendations reflect the city’s ongoing need to balance
operating costs, capital investments and long-term financial stability across all four utility funds:
Water, Sanitary Sewer, Storm Water and Solid Waste. Cost recovery remains the primary driver
of all proposed rate adjustments.
Key Drivers Behind Rate Changes:
• Rising capital and operational costs across utilities;
• Variability in water consumption patterns, influenced by precipitation levels;
• Shifts in residential cart sizes, affecting solid waste revenue;
• Need to preserve healthy cash and investment balances for future Capital Improvement
Plan (CIP) work.
Summary of Proposed 2027 Rate Increases:
Utility Staff-Recommended Increase Prior Year Increase
Water 7.0% 4.5%
Sanitary Sewer 3.5% 4.5%
Storm Water 1.5% 4.5%
Solid Waste 7.5% 5.75%
Financial Health of Utility Funds:
• Water: The recommended rate increase for water is 7.0% based on the following
factors: cash balance is stable but significant capital outlays require above-inflation
increases. Overall cash balances have fluctuated from $7.1 million in 2022 to $6.2
million in 2025. The primary driver of the fluctuations is CIP project timing. With
significant projects on the horizon, an increase in utility rates is needed to continue to
have a healthy Water fund. While CIP plays a significant role as a variable for water, the
other major variable is consumption of water. Consumption fluctuates year-to-year and
typically, if there is increased precipitation, that could lead to less revenue being
generated (this occurred in 2024).
• Sanitary Sewer: The recommended 2027 rate increase for sanitary sewer is 3.5% based
on the following factors: cash and investment balances have significantly risen over the
past four years, increasing 64.2% from $3.7 million in 2022 to $6.1 million in 2025. The
city does have significant capital outlay for sewer line projects as part of the CIP. For
operating expenses, one of the leading variables is the municipal wastewater charge set
by the Metropolitan Council. In 2026, the charge increased 7.2%, setting the total fee at
$6,102,762. The city does not have control of this fee and the majority of operating-
related costs are Municipal Waste Combustion (MWC) charges.
• Storm Water: The recommended 2027 rate increase for storm water is 1.5% based on
the following factors: cash and investment balances have significantly risen over the
past four years, increasing 82.9% from $2.9 million in 2022 to $5.3 million in 2025. The
city has also received revenue from non-utility billing over the past four years, which has
Special study session meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 3) Page 3
Title: Utility rate discussion
funded some of the city’s CIP projects. Due to the very healthy cash and investments
reserve built, staff recommendation is the modest increase of 1.5%, which is less than
inflation.
• Solid Waste: The recommended 2027 rate increase for solid waste is 7.5% based on the
following factors: cash and investments balance of the funds has declined by 31.5% over
the past four years, with operating expenses exceeding revenues. The city increased
rates by 45% in 2024 followed by 5.75% increases in both 2025 and 2026. Those
increases were made to adjust to the service agreement that began in 2024. However,
changing customer behavior has resulted in expenses continuing to outpace revenues,
leading to less cash and investments. Specifically, utility billing staff observed a trend of
larger solid waste cart users scaling down to smaller carts. This supports the city’s
climate action goals but, in turn, lowers the city’s revenue. An increase above the
service agreement is needed to ensure revenues can offset operating expenses
incurred. There are no CIP projects for solid waste. Therefore, the main goal with the
fund is cost recovery of operating expenses.
Residential Impact
Typical residential quarterly bills are projected to increase between 5.6% and 6.3%, depending
on consumption and solid waste cart size. Below are different scenarios based on variables of
solid waste cart size and water/sewer consumption:
• Bill Example 1:
o Low consumption user quarterly bill increases by an estimated $11.68 (5.62%)
o Water/Sewer Consumption: 3 units (750 gallons per 1 unit)
o Cart size: 30-gallon every other week
• Bill Example 2
o Medium consumption user quarterly bill increases by an estimated $15.51
(5.75%).
o Water/Sewer Consumption: 7 units (750 gallons per 1 unit)
o Cart size: 30-gallon weekly
• Bill Example 3:
o High consumption user quarterly bill increases by an estimated $21.06 (5.84%)
o Water/Sewer Consumption: 13 units (750 gallons per 1 unit)
o Cart size: 60-gallon weekly
• Bill Example 4:
o High consumption user quarterly bill increases by an estimated $26.72 (6.31%)
o Water/Sewer Consumption: 15 units water / 8 units sewer (750 gallons per 1
unit)
o Cart size: 90-gallon weekly
Present considerations: Does council accept the proposed staff recommended rates for 2027
utility billing?

Fines imposed are double the amount from the previous fine assessed, up to a maximum of $2,000. The escalated fine amount is based on the number of
identical violations within the previous 24 months from the date of the current violation. For example, if there were four occurrences of an identical
violation within the previous 24 months of the current violation date that carried a $50 fine, the fine for the fourth violation would be $400. (First violation:
$50; second; $100; third:$200; fourth: $400). Fines reset to the minimum amount if there are no identical violations within the previous 24 months of the

Executive summary
Title: Broadway Street Development’s application for financial assistance for 8800 Highway 7 -
Ward 3
Recommended action: None at this time. This staff report outlines Broadway Street
Development’s application for financial assistance.
Policy consideration: Is the EDA willing to consider a redevelopment contract providing up to
$1,160,000 in tax increment financing (TIF) to reimburse eligible redevelopment costs, along
with a $1,500,000 deferred Affordable Housing Trust Fund (AHTF) loan to support deeply
affordable units within this income-averaged workforce housing development?
Summary: Broadway Street Development has a purchase agreement to acquire the former
Bremer Bank property at 8800 State Highway 7. The proposal would demolish the existing
office building and parking lot and construct a seven-story, 208-unit affordable apartment
building serving households across a range of incomes. The project exceeds the city's Green
Building and Inclusionary Housing Policy requirements, has received Tax-Exempt Bonds and
Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) and will maintain affordability for 30 years. The
building will also utilize geothermal heat pumps for heating and cooling.
Financial or budget considerations: Ehlers, the EDA’s financial consultant, examined the
redeveloper’s application for financial assistance to determine what, if any, level of financial
assistance is necessary for the development to achieve financial feasibility. To date, Minnesota
Management and Budget has allocated $45 million in tax exempt bonds allowing the
development to access LIHTC from Minnesota Housing; the redeveloper is applying for gap
funds from DEED and the Metropolitan Council as well. Despite these sources, and deferring
approximately 100% of their developer fee, Ehlers determined that the development has a
financing gap due to extraordinary costs. Ehlers determined that up to $1,160,000 (present
value) in TIF assistance over 17 years and a deferred loan of $1,500,000 from the city’s AHTF is
warranted to enable the project to proceed. The AHTF loan supports deeply affordable 30%
area median income (AMI) and 50% AMI units and larger two and three bedroom units, greatly
exceeding the requirements of the Inclusionary Housing Policy.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a range of quality,
affordable and attainable housing options.

Title: Broadway Street Development’s application for financial assistance for 8800 Highway 7 - Ward 3
Discussion
Site information: The subject redevelopment site is located at 8800 State Highway 7. The site is
approximately 4.4 acres in size. The site is immediately east of Knollwood Village and Boone
Avenue and is located south of 36th Street West. City-owned park land borders the site to the
north and east.
Proposed redevelopment site for Creekline Flats
Background: Broadway Street Development, a St. Paul-based affordable housing developer, has
a purchase agreement to acquire the former Bremer Bank office property located at 8800 State
Highway 7, east of Boone Avenue and south of 36th Street West along Minnehaha Creek. The
redeveloper proposes demolishing the existing office building and surface parking lot and
constructing a seven-story, 208-unit affordable apartment building. The proposed affordability
mix for the development is a mix of apartments for moderate income households alongside
more deeply affordable units. The development is currently working through the stormwater
Special study session meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5) Page 3
Title: Broadway Street Development’s application for financial assistance for 8800 Highway 7 - Ward 3
permitting process with the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) and needs to
complete that process in order to proceed.
To finance the project, the redeveloper has received an allocation of $45 million in tax exempt
bonds from Minnesota Management and Budget (MMB) and is applying for Low-Income
Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) through Minnesota Housing. MMB requires the redeveloper to
receive all financial obligations and close on the project by Dec. 31, 2026. Broadway Street
Development has also applied for $1.125 million in redevelopment grant funding from the
Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) and plans to seek
approximately $1 million in Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Act (LCA) funding.
Broadway Street Development anticipates closing on financing and commencing construction
by early December 2026.
Present considerations: As noted above, Broadway Street Development has been successful in
raising significant capital for this development; staff continue to work closely with the
redeveloper to ensure that grants and other public sources of funds are maximized. The
redeveloper has also committed to a financing structure that defers 100% of the developer fee.
After maximizing other sources of funds, Broadway Street Development states that their
development proforma exhibits a financial gap and requests financial assistance from the City
of St. Louis Park, noting that the development is not feasible without assistance.
Ehlers, the EDA’s financial advisor reviewed Broadway Street Development’s financial
assistance application and concluded that up to $1,160,000 (present value) in pay-as-you-go tax
increment financing (TIF) assistance and a $1,500,000 deferred loan from the city's affordable
housing trust fund (AHTF) are warranted to support the development. If approved, the TIF
assistance would be provided through a pay-as-you-go TIF Note funded by a new housing TIF
district. Based on current projections, the TIF Note is expected to be repaid in approximately 17
years.
If financial assistance is provided to Creekline Flats, the development will be required to adhere
to the Inclusionary Housing Policy and Green Building Policy. The redeveloper has stated that
the 208 proposed units will remain affordable for at least 30 years, exceeding the 26-year
requirement of the city’s Inclusionary Housing Policy. In addition, the proposed development
will exceed the requirements of the Green Building Policy.

Creekline Flats, as shown from the entrance on Boone Ave.
Creekline Flats would be a single-phase, all-affordable, residential development marketed as
workforce housing. The 208-unit building would include nine units affordable to households at
80% AMI, 36 units at 70% AMI, 131 units at 60% AMI, 21 units at 50% AMI and 11 units
proposed at 30% AMI. Of the 208 units, 80 are anticipated to be three -bedroom units, 81 are
anticipated to be two-bedroom units and the remaining 47 units are anticipated to be one-
bedroom units. The full unit mix is shown in the following table:
Unit Type 30% AMI 50% AMI 60% AMI 70% AMI 80% AMI Total units
1-bedroom 3 5 32 6 1 47
2-bedroom 4 8 50 15 4 81
3-bedroom 4 8 49 15 4 80
Total 11 21 131 36 9 208
Upon closing on its financing, the redeveloper plans to commence construction in December
2026 and complete construction by mid-2028. A subsidiary of Broadway Street Development
would own and manage the residential development for at least 15 years, through the required
tax credit compliant period pertaining to the LIHTC allocation. However, it has indicated that it
will likely continue to own the property beyond the required 15 years.
Inclusionary housing: Creekline Flats exceeds the city’s Inclusionary Housing Policy
requirements as shown in the table below. The proposed apartment building would be an
income averaged all-affordable development with rents ranging from 30% to 80% AMI. The
redeveloper has also stated that affordability for all 208 units will be maintained for 30 years,
exceeding the 26-year minimum affordability term under the Inclusionary Housing Policy by
four years.

Title: Broadway Street Development’s application for financial assistance for 8800 Highway 7 - Ward 3
Per the Metropolitan Council, earnings of $105,200 for a family of four currently represent 80%
of AMI, earnings of $78,900 represent 60% AMI, earnings of $65,750 represent 50% AMI and
earnings of $39,450 represent 30% AMI. This income averaged affordable housing development
provides for households across all of these income bands.
In addition, a development of this size (over 175 units) is required to provide at least seven (7)
three-bedroom units per the city’s Inclusionary Housing Policy. The redeveloper plans to
include 80 three-bedroom units in the building’s unit mix, exceeding the policy requirements by
73 units, furthering the city’s goals for family-sized housing. Of those, four (4) of the three-
bedroom units are reserved for households with incomes at or below 30% AMI.

Climate Action Plan: The development will exceed the city’s Green Building Policy as amended
in 2022 and intends to follow Enterprise Green Communities with the Minnesota Overlay as its
design rating system. The development will also include the following sustainable features:
• A geothermal heat pump system known as Darcy, designed by University of Minnesota
geologists, that utilizes the earth’s stable underground temperature to heat and cool
the building;
• Dedicated enclosed bicycle parking in the ramp for at least 208 bicycle;
• Thirty-two (32) level 2 electric vehicle charging stations and electric vehicle supply
equipment to prepare to add 157 additional charging stations in the future (10% of total
stalls installed), 60% of all parking stalls have the ability to be served with electric
vehicle chargers in future per SLP Green Building Policy;
• As required by the Green Building Policy, the redeveloper will divert at least 75% of
demolition and construction waste from a landfill. In addition to meeting this
requirement, the redeveloper will work with a building materials reuse organization to
complete a salvage and deconstruction assessment that explores ways to best re-use
materials;
• Rooftop solar panels;
• Immediate access to the natural amenity of Minnehaha Creek for residents, as well as
preservation of existing community access to the creek by replacing the existing canoe
launch parking and extending the existing access trail for the canoe launch. Access to
Special study session meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5) Page 6
Title: Broadway Street Development’s application for financial assistance for 8800 Highway 7 - Ward 3
the existing city-owned canoe launch and the public parking stalls will be provided by an
access agreement between the redeveloper and the City of St. Louis Park;
• Its location on a bus line, and near the Cedar Lake regional trail system also encourages
walking, bicycling, and transit use, reducing vehicle miles traveled and associated
emissions;
• Given the above sustainable features, the proposed development exceeds the city’s
Green Building Policy requirements as amended in 2022.
Racial equity and inclusion: The proposed development will provide income qualified families,
including but not limited to households of color, with access to new, high-quality housing near
parks, natural amenities, retail, employment and other community resources. As an income
averaging development, all 208 units will be affordable to households earning between 30%
and 80% AMI, with an average affordability level below 60% AMI. In addition, 38% of the units
(80 total) will have three bedrooms, providing housing options that are well suited for families
and multigenerational households.
Located adjacent to parkland and Minnehaha Creek, the development expands equitable access
to a significant natural amenity by providing low and moderate income households of all races
and ethnicities the opportunity to live in a multifamily community with direct access to and
views of the creek. By offering affordable housing within a mixed-income community, the
proposed development promotes racial and economic integration and advances the city's racial
equity and inclusion goals.
The development team: Broadway Street Development is a local affordable housing developer
based out of St. Paul, Minnesota. Broadway Street Development (originally established as LS
Black) was founded in 2020 with a mission to develop high-quality real estate projects focusing
on affordable housing development. In 2025, Broadway Street Development won Best
Affordable Project – Minneapolis, and Best Mixed-Use Project at the Minnesota Real Estate
Journal Awards. More information on Broadway Street Development can be found on their
website; and an overview of the company was previously included as an attachment to
November 17, 2025 staff report related to the development proposed at 8800 Hwy. 7.
Application for tax increment financing (TIF) assistance: The proposed development will incur
a number of extraordinary site development costs, including the responsible demolition of an
existing underutilized commercial building while diverting at least 75% of nonhazardous waste
from landfills. In addition, the creation of an all-affordable housing development utilizing
income-averaging, with large unit sizes, including 80 three-bedroom units and 81 two-bedroom
units requiring below market rents for 30 years and the proposed sustainable features create
an additional financial gap in the project pro forma. To help address this estimated gap, the
redeveloper applied for TIF assistance.
TIF uses most of the increased future property taxes generated by a new development to
finance certain qualified development costs incurred by that project for a limited period to
enable it to achieve financial feasibility. The EDA's financial advisor, Ehlers, examined the
financial information provided in the redeveloper's TIF application using general industry
standards for land, construction and project costs, rents, operating expenses, fees,
underwriting and financing criteria, and project cash flow. Based on this analysis, Ehlers and
Special study session meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5) Page 7
Title: Broadway Street Development’s application for financial assistance for 8800 Highway 7 - Ward 3
EDA staff determined that the proposed development has a financial gap that justifies the
provision of TIF assistance.
Extraordinary redevelopment costs, affordability impact,
and sustainability features
Amount ($)
Demolition of existing building (extraordinary cost) $600,000
Geothermal heat pump system (sustainability feature) $843,224*
Solar energy system (sustainability feature) $250,000
Affordability impact (tied to 26 year TIF term) $34,399,751
*The geothermal heat pump system costs approximately $4 million. The figure presented above
is the difference between the cost to construct and the tax credits generated to fund the
system.
Construction/Extraordinary Costs: The estimated total development cost (TDC) for the
proposed Creekline Flats redevelopment is approximately $99.7 million, or $479,252 per unit,
which is consistent with current market conditions for a tax credit development given the larger
unit sizes and additional site costs. The project's financial gap is primarily attributable to the
$600,000 in extraordinary redevelopment costs, $34.4 million affordability impact and
$1,093,244 of the $4,250,000 in sustainability features that are unfunded by tax credits.
Affordability impact: The affordability impact is calculated by comparing the market rate rents
to the affordable rents for the term in which the redeveloper is not receiving any tax increment.
Rents for affordable housing units vary depending upon the affordability level but are less than
the rents charged for market rate units. The difference between these rents times the number
of affordable units each month for 26 years - which is the required term per the Inclusionary
Housing policy - significantly reduce the development’s rental income. In this case, it is
estimated that the affordability impact over 26 years will amount to $34,399,751 or $165,383
per affordable unit.
Due to decreased rental income from 100% of the units over 26 years, there is insufficient cash
flow to provide a market rate of return, pay ongoing operating expenses and service the
outstanding debt on the property. This leaves a gap in the funding for the project and makes
this housing development financially infeasible without public financial assistance. Under
Minnesota TIF statutes, costs to construct affordable housing are an eligible expense that may
be reimbursed through tax increment originating from a housing TIF District.
Proposed level of assistance: The recommended level of assistance for the project was
determined by analyzing the project’s extraordinary site development costs, construction costs,
affordability impact over 26 years, city-required sustainability features, and ensuring all private
forms of financing have been maximized. Ehlers concluded that a combination of tax increment
assistance in the amount of $1,160,000 and a loan in the amount of $1,500,000 from the city’s
AHTF is necessary to enable the proposed development to become financially feasible. Utilizing
a loan from the AHTF reduces the amount of TIF need to make the project financially feasible.
This level of assistance would offset enough of the extraordinary site costs, city-required
sustainability features, and affordability impact described above to allow the proposed project
to achieve financial feasibility and attract private financing thereby enabling it to proceed. The
redeveloper has indicated the recommended level of assistance is acceptable.
Special study session meeting of August 17, 2026 (Item No. 5) Page 8
Title: Broadway Street Development’s application for financial assistance for 8800 Highway 7 - Ward 3
Land Acquisition: Broadway Street Development has a purchase agreement to acquire the
subject redevelopment site from the current owner for $5.5 million or $26,442 per unit. This
land sale price is considered within market compared to other multi-family land sales within the
city.
TIF district: It is proposed that the tax increment provided to Creekline Flats derive from a
newly established housing TIF district. With 100% of the units affordable to households ranging
from 30% to 80% of AMI, the Creekline Flats development would meet the statutory
requirements for establishment of a housing TIF district. Once the tax increment obligation to
the redeveloper is paid off, the council will have the option to decertify the district or to keep it
open for TIF pooling purposes. Housing TIF Districts allow for up to 100% pooling for affordable
housing purposes. Such a TIF district would allow for up to 26 years of tax increment by state
statute.
TIF Note: The proposed development would take approximately 20 months to construct. It is
anticipated that the first increment could be paid in 2029. Given current estimates of market
value, it is estimated that a $1,160,000 TIF Note would be paid off in approximately 17 years
(on a net present value basis). It is projected that the Note would terminate with the final
payment on Feb. 1, 2046. Payments on the Note would be made on a "pay-as-you-go" basis,
which means that as the redeveloper pays the project’s property taxes, a portion of those taxes
(the “tax increment”) are paid back semi-annually to the redeveloper under the specified terms
of the TIF Note. Thus, payments to the redeveloper would only be made as the project’s
property taxes are received. This is the preferred financing method under the city's TIF Policy.
Property value and taxes: For tax increment financing purposes, the property’s taxable market
value is $4,954,000. This figure serves as the proposed TIF district’s Base Value. After the TIF
district is established and the use changes, the tax classification will change from Commercial
Industrial Preferred to Affordable Housing. The city would continue to receive property taxes
from the Base Value, however, those taxes would be lower than current collections due to the
classification change.
The table below shows the city taxes during the term of the TIF District. The reduced city tax
collection is due to the change in property tax classification from commercial/industrial to
affordable housing; and the statutory tax rate for affordable housing in Minnesota is lower than
the rate for commercial/industrial. This decrease in taxes on the base value is atypical for TIF
districts in St. Louis Park, and in this case, is due to the change from commercial tax rates to
affordable housing tax rates. For example, if a vacant commercial building was redeveloped as a
mixed use/mixed income building, the base value taxes collected during the TIF term would not
decrease. Other recent all-affordable residential buildings in St. Louis Park have seen an
increase in base value during the TIF term since these developments were previously tax-
exempt church properties.

TIF district)
$4,954,000 $6,409
Affordable Housing Tax Classification (Post-Development Value
at decertification of TIF district)
$44,720,000 $57,858
Upon decertification of the TIF district, city property taxes collected would increase above the
original base amount, as the proposed development is expected to have an estimated market
value of approximately $44.72 million. Most of that value - less the base value - would be
captured as tax increment and used to make payments on the TIF Note to the redeveloper until
the note is paid in full. At decertification of the TIF district, the development is estimated to
generate approximately $160,405 in annual property taxes, with the city’s share approximately
$57,860.
Analysis of development’s conformity with the city’s TIF Policy: The following table lists the
objectives, qualifications and guidelines for the use of tax increment financing as specified in
the city’s TIF Policy as amended in December 2021, as well as how and whether the proposed
development meets the majority of those standards.

approves the city’s land use changes and BOZA approves the variance, the development will be
consistent with city plans and zoning. The Metropolitan Council’s review of the city’s zoning
code update is anticipated by Aug. 28, 2026; and BOZA is expected to review the variance on
Sept. 2, 2026.
** The development will be required to comply with FEMA regulations as its adjacent to the
100 and 500 year floodplains near Minnehaha Creek. The development will also be required to
meet city and Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) requirements related to
stormwater management. The developer has designed the building to sit outside the floodplain
but is still in the process of working with its stormwater engineering team to meet the
requirements of FEMA and the watershed district. Both FEMA and watershed district
requirements will need to be met prior to the issuance of any building permits.
Given that the proposed development meets statutory requirements, all minimum
qualifications, and nearly all of the desired qualifications as specified in the TIF Policy, and
because the developer has begun the process of working through reviews required by other
jurisdictions (FEMA and MCWD) related to stormwater, staff finds Broadway Street
Development’s request for TIF assistance meets the EDA’s requirements for the provision of tax
increment financing.

Affordable Housing Trust Fund (AHTF): The City of St. Louis Park will be asked to consider
approval of an AHTF loan. The loan of $1,500,000 would be non-interest bearing and would be
repaid upon the earlier of 1) 17 years, 2) refinancing, or 3) re-syndication of the development.
The proposed development meets and exceeds the AHTF affordability requirements as shown in
the table below.

Three bedroom units (IHP minimum shown) 7 units 80 units 73 units
The remaining units for renters with incomes above 60% AMI are rent and income restricted at
70% and 80% of AMI, creating a mixed income community that provides a range of workforce
housing options within an income averaged development at 60% AMI. By providing additional
assistance through the trust fund, this allows the development to include a higher proportion of
units that are affordable at 30% AMI, 50% and 60% AMI than are required; creates a mixed
income community and enables the development to include mostly larger units (80 units, or 38%
are three bedrooms).
Summary and recommendation: Based upon its analysis of Broadway Street Development’s
proforma for Creekline Flats, Ehlers determined that the proposed development has a verified
financial gap and is not financially feasible but-for the provision of tax increment financing
combined with a deferred loan from the AHTF. To offset this gap, it is proposed that the EDA
consider reimbursing the redeveloper up to $1,160,000 in pay-as-you-go tax increment generated
by the project over a 17-year term. Such assistance would derive from a newly established
housing TIF district upon completion of the proposed project and stabilization. It is also proposed
that the City of St. Louis Park provide a deferred loan in the amount of $1,500,000 from the AHTF.
Providing tax increment financing assistance and a deferred loan through the AHTF to the
proposed Creekline Flats achieves the following:
• redevelops an under-utilized office building built in 1973;
• provides the city with a quality, multi-family all-affordable housing development
consistent with many goals of the Comprehensive Plan, city’s strategic priorities and
council preferences;
• provides access to Minnehaha Creek for residents; and preserves existing access to a city
canoe launch on the site, through an access agreement. The development will also
improve the quality of existing onsite parking for the canoe launch by reconstructing
existing parking stalls within a new parking lot;
• further diversifies the city’s housing stock with an additional 208 all-affordable multi-
family units, utilizing income-averaging to serve a wider range of households, including 11
deeply affordable units at 30% area median income, and 21 units affordable at 50% AMI

• includes numerous sustainable features, such as geothermal heat pumps and rooftop

• brings the subject property to a higher market value.
Broadway Street Development’s proposed Creekline Flats development meets the city’s
requirements for the provision of tax increment financing as specified in the city’s TIF Policy and
the provisions to utilize money from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund. Additionally, the
proposed development is not financially feasible but-for the provision of tax increment financing
and AHTF. Lastly, the proposed amount of assistance is comparable to other all-affordable
housing developments in which the EDA/city has previously invested. Given these findings, staff
supports reimbursing the redevelopment for eligible costs up to $1,160,000 in pay-as-you-go tax
increment generated by the proposed mixed income development and a deferred loan of
$1,500,000 from the AHTF to enable it to become financially feasible.
