EDA Resolution No. 23-17
Resolution conveying property, approving contract for private
development with Beltline Mixed Use LLC including a business
subsidy agreement, authorizing the issuance of tax increment
revenue and other notes, and taking other actions in connection
therewith
Be it resolved by the board of commissioners (the “board”) of the St. Louis Park
Economic Development Authority (the “authority”) as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
1.01. The city council of the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota (the “city”) and the
authority have approved the establishment of Beltline Station Tax Increment Financing District
No. 2 (the “TIF district”), a renewal and renovation district within Redevelopment Project No. 1
(the “project”) and have adopted a tax increment financing plan for the purpose of financing
certain improvements within the project.
1.02. Minnesota Statutes, section 469.176, subdivision 4n (“Subd. 4n”) authorizes
authority to spend available tax increment from any existing tax increment financing district
(“available TIF”), notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, to provide improvements, loans,
interest rate subsidies, or assistance in any form to private development consisting of construction
or substantial rehabilitation of buildings and ancillary facilities, if the following conditions exist:
(a) Such assistance will create or retain jobs in the State of Minnesota (the
“state”), including construction jobs;
(b) Construction commences before December 31, 2025;
(c) The construction would not have commenced before December 31, 2025
without the assistance;
(d) Available TIF under the spending plan is spent by December 31, 2025; and
(e) The city council (the “council”) of the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota (the
“city”) approves a written spending plan (after a duly noticed public hearing) that
specifically authorizes the Authority to take such actions.
1.03. The authority and the council have heretofore adopted a spending plan (the
“spending plan”) pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 469.176, subdivision Subd. 4n, which
authorizes the use of available TIF to provide improvements, loans or assistance for private
development that satisfies the criteria listed above and as further described in the spending plan
(“qualified projects,” singularly, a “qualified project”). The spending plan expressly authorizes
available TIF assistance to qualified projects including to the development (as hereinafter defined).

1.04. The city, the authority, and Beltline Development LLC, a Minnesota limited
liability company (“Beltline Development”), or an entity related thereto or affiliated therewith
(collectively, the “Beltline development entities”), each own portions of certain property within
the project (the “development property”), which has been the subject of negotiations between
the parties for purposes of constructing a mixed-use (market rate and affordable multi-family
residential and commercial) development and related parking, including a parking ramp serving
in part as a park and ride facility for Metro Transit’s proposed Southwest Light Rail Transit
Beltline station on certain property in the project (the “development”).
1.05. To facilitate the development of the development property, the authority and
Beltline Mixed Use LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Beltline
Development (the “developer”), have negotiated a contract for private development (the
“agreement”) which provides for the construction by the developer on the development
property of (a) a building to include approximately 146 units of market rate housing with
approximately 96 underground parking spaces an affordable rental housing facility (the
“market-rate housing component”); (b) a building to include approximately 152 units of market
rate rental housing and approximately 18,200 rentable square feet of commercial space (the
“mixed-use component”); and (c) an approximately 571-space parking ramp with approximately
1,850 square feet of commercial space (including approximately 208 spaces to serve the mixed-
use component, approximately 95 spaces to serve the market-rate housing component, and
approximately 268 spaces to be dedicated as public transit park and ride spaces) and driver
restroom (the “parking ramp component,” and collectively with the market-rate housing
component and the mixed-use component, the “minimum improvements”). The Beltline
development entities and the authority previously entered into a contract for private
development relating to the construction of the affordable housing component of the
development.
1.06. Due to the costs of developing the minimum improvements, the developer has
requested certain financial assistance from the authority. To make the construction of the
minimum improvements economically feasible, the agreement provides that the authority will
issue separate tax increment revenue notes (individually, the “market-rate housing TIF note”
and the “mixed-use component TIF note,” and together, the “TIF notes”) to the Sherman
development entities. In addition, the authority will provide a grant in the maximum amount
of $1,554,000 from available TIF (the “authority TIF grant”) for the construction of the mixed-
use component as allowed under the spending plan.
1.07. As part of the development, the authority proposes to convey the property
legally described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “authority parcels”) to the Beltline
development entities, and the Beltline development entities intend to acquire the authority
parcels for purposes of constructing the development.
1.08. To facilitate the development, the authority and Beltline Development entered
into a purchase agreement, dated July 7, 2022, as amended by a first amendment to purchase
agreement, dated December 5, 2022, and a second amendment to purchase agreement, dated
June 5, 2023 (as heretofore amended, the “original purchase agreement”), which provides for
the conveyance the authority parcels to the Beltline development entities, provided that
DocuSign Envelope ID: 13B970A5-CB63-4622-844F-AABE339BF561
following closing on the conveyance and replatting of the development property certain rights
of way will be owned by the city.
1.09. Due to changes in market conditions since the execution of the original purchase
agreement, the costs of the development have increased. As such, the authority and Beltline
Development have negotiated and now propose to execute a third amendment to purchase
agreement (the “third amendment to purchase agreement”) to revise the land payment
structure set forth in the original purchase agreement. The authority proposes to sell the
authority property at the price of $3,390,001.00 of which $1.00 will be paid for the property
upon which an affordable housing development will be constructed (the “affordable parcel”)
and $3,390,000 will be paid for the property upon which the mixed-use and market-rate
housing components (the “mixed-use property”) will be constructed. The costs of the mixed-
use property will be paid from $3,000,000 from the Beltline development entities and the
delivery of a purchase price note (the “purchase price note”) in the amount of $390,000 which
will be repaid from pooled tax increment available to the authority.
1.10. As required by Minnesota Statutes, section 469.105, as amended, on July 17,
2023, the board conducted a duly noticed public hearing regarding the conveyance of the
authority parcels to beltline development and the Beltline development entities pursuant to the
original purchase agreement, as amended by the third amendment to purchase agreement
(together, the “purchase agreement”), at which all interested parties were given an opportunity to
be heard, and hereby finds that the execution of the third amendment to purchase agreement and
performance of the authority’s obligations under the purchase agreement, including the
conveyance of the authority parcels to beltline development and the beltline development
entities, are in the best interest of the city and its residents.
1.11. The authority and the city have previously established various tax increment financing
districts including Park Center Tax Increment Financing District, the Zarthan/16th Avenue Tax
Increment Financing District, Mill City Tax Increment Financing District, Park Commons Tax
Increment Financing District, Wolfe Lake Tax Increment Financing District, Aquila Commons –
Tax Increment Financing District, Elmwood Village Tax Increment Financing District, Highway 7
Corporate Center Tax Increment Financing District, West End Tax Increment Financing District,
Ellipse on Excelsior, Tax Increment Financing District, Hardcoat Tax Increment Financing District,
Eliot Park Tax Increment Financing District, The Shoreham Tax Increment Financing District, 4900
Excelsior Tax Increment Financing District, Elmwood Apartments Tax Increment Financing
District, Wooddale Station Tax Increment Financing District, Bridgewater Bank Tax Increment
Financing District, Parkway Residences Tax Increment Financing District, Texa Tonka Tax
Increment Financing District, Beltline Residences Tax Increment Financing District, Rise on 7 –
Housing Tax Increment Financing District, 9920 Wayzata Blvd Tax Increment Financing District,
Wooddale Ave. Apartments Tax Increment Financing District (collectively, the “pooled TIF
districts”) and adopted tax increment financing plans therefore. The authority intends to any
available pooled tax increment from one or more of the pooled TIF districts as designated by the
executive director (the “pooled TIF”) to repay the purchase price note.
1.12. In order to assist with the costs of the minimum improvements, the authority
applied for and received a grant in the amount $418,547, of which $283,547 (the “DEED grant”)
DocuSign Envelope ID: 13B970A5-CB63-4622-844F-AABE339BF561
will be used for costs related to the minimum improvements, from the Minnesota Department
of Employment and Economic Development (“DEED”).
1.13. DEED and the authority entered into the Contamination Cleanup Grant Contract
Agreement No. CCGP-21-0022-Z-FY22 (the “DEED grant agreement”). Proceeds of the DEED
grant may be used for eligible project components of the minimum improvements (the “DEED
grant-eligible activities”) as described in the DEED grant agreement.
1.14. The authority intends to disburse the proceeds of the DEED grant to the
developer to provide financing for the DEED grant-eligible activities as set forth in the
agreement.
1.15. The mixed-use component TIF note, along with the portions of the authority TIF
grant, the DEED grant (as hereinafter defined) and the purchase price note allocable on a pro rata
basis to the mixed-use component, constitute a business subsidy (the “business subsidy”) pursuant
to Minnesota Statutes, sections 116j.993 to 116j.995, as amended (the “business subsidy act”).
The agreement includes an agreement whereby the developer will agree to meet certain goals
in connection with the business subsidy as required by the business subsidy act (the “business
subsidy agreement”).
1.16. As required by section 116J.994, subdivision 5 of the business subsidy act, on
July 17, 2023, the board conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the proposed business
subsidy to be provided to the developer. The views of all interested persons were heard and
considered at the public hearing.
1.17. In order to assist with the costs of the construction of the portion of the parking
ramp component containing 268 spaces to be dedicated as public transit park and ride spaces (the
“public transit parking tract”), the authority applied for and received a Congestion Mitigation
and Air Quality Contamination Cleanup grant in the amount $6,453,054 (the “CMAQ grant”)
from Metropolitan Council.
1.18. Metropolitan Council and the authority entered into a subrecipient agreement -
Beltline Blvd Station Park & Ride Project – METRO Green Line Light Rail Transit Extension -
Federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funding (the “original CMAQ grant
agreement”). Proceeds of the CMAQ grant may be used for eligible project components of the
minimum improvements (the “CMAQ grant-eligible activities”) as described in the original
CMAQ grant agreement.
1.19. The authority and Metropolitan Council have negotiated and now propose to
execute a first amendment to subrecipient agreement with respect to the CMAQ grant (the
“first amendment to CMAQ grant agreement”) to implement the construction of the public
transit parking tract and to update certain other provisions.
1.20. The authority intends to disburse the proceeds of the CMAQ grant to the
developer to provide financing for the CMAQ grant-eligible activities as set forth in the
agreement.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 13B970A5-CB63-4622-844F-AABE339BF561
1.21. Metropolitan Council and the authority entered into a cooperative construction
agreement, dated December 15, 2020, as amended by a first amendment to the cooperative
construction agreement, dated March 31, 2021 (as heretofore amended, the “original
cooperative construction agreement”), which described the responsibilities of Metropolitan
Council and the authority with respect to the construction of the public transit parking tract.
1.22. The authority and Metropolitan Council have negotiated and now propose to
execute amendment number two to the cooperative construction agreement (the “second
amendment to cooperative construction agreement”) to lay out the responsibilities of and to
reflect that the authority and the developer will enter into a partnership to cooperatively
implement the construction of the public transit parking tract and whereby the authority will
delegate the construction of the public transit parking tract to the Sherman development
entities.
1.23. The developer expects to receive one or more loans (the “NBC loan”) from
National Bank of Commerce, a national banking association (“National Bank of Commerce”), to
provide financing for the minimum improvements. In connection with the NBC loan, National
Bank of Commerce will require that the developer assign its interests in the TIF notes to
National Bank of Commerce.
1.24. The developer also expects to receive one or more loans (the “Bridgewater
loan”) from Bridgewater Bank, a Minnesota banking corporation (“Bridgewater Bank”), to
provide financing for the market-rate housing component and the mixed-use component. As a
condition to providing the Bridgewater loan, Bridgewater Bank will require that the authority
subordinate its rights, interests, and liens in the market-rate housing component and the
mixed-use component and the property on which such components will be constructed arising
under or pursuant to the agreement or the deed of such property to the interests and rights of
Bridgewater Bank under the documents executed in connection with the Bridgewater loan.
1.25. The developer previously acquired a portion of the property for the construction of
the parking ramp (the “Vision Bank parcel”) from a third party, and the authority financed a
portion of the acquisition cost of the Vision Bank parcel pursuant to a loan agreement between
the authority and developer, as subsequently amended (the “loan agreement”), pursuant to which
the authority loaned $3,100,000 (the “EDA loan”) to the developer to finance such acquisition as
evidenced by a promissory note, as subsequently amended(the “note”) and secured by a
mortgage, as subsequently amended (the “mortgage”).
Section 2. Findings for authority TIF grant and business subsidy.
2.01. The board hereby finds that the mixed-Use component is a qualified project
because:
(a) the mixed-use component will create and retain jobs in the state;
(b) construction on the mixed-use component will commence in 2023 and
requires financial assistance to make the project financially feasible. the developer has
represented that the mixed-use component would not be economically feasible within
DocuSign Envelope ID: 13B970A5-CB63-4622-844F-AABE339BF561
the reasonably foreseeable future and would not have commenced construction before
December 31, 2025 if the developer does not receive the authority TIF grant;
(c) the construction of the mixed-use component would not have
commenced before December 31, 2025 without the authority TIF grant and there is a
significant need for construction of mixed-use component to commence prior to such
date so that the mixed-use component is completed prior to the commencement of
service by light rail transit and to provide additional housing options in the city of which
there is a significant need; and
(d) the available TIF for the mixed-use component will be spent under the
spending plan by December 31, 2025.
2.02 The board further finds that the authority TIF grant meets the spending plan goal
of providing financial assistance to advance construction of the development is authorized
pursuant to the spending plan and Minnesota Statutes, section 469.176, Subd. 4n.
2.03. After a public hearing held by the board on the date hereof, the board hereby
determines that the public purposes of the proposed mixed-use component include creating a
mixed-use transit oriented development, helping spur development along the light rail,
eliminate blight and blighting factors in the city, increasing the tax base in the city, and
stimulating construction and construction jobs, and that the creation or retention of jobs is not
a goal of the proposed development. Therefore, the wage and job goals may be set at zero in
the agreement in accordance with the business subsidy act.

3.01. The board approves the third amendment to purchase agreement in
substantially the form presented to the board, together with any related documents necessary

to the conveyance of the authority parcels (the “conveyance documents”). The board hereby
approves the conveyance of the authority parcels to the beltline developer entities, or an entity
affiliated therewith, in accordance with the terms of the third amendment to purchase
agreement. Following closing on the conveyance and replatting of the development property,
certain rights of way will be owned by the city.
