ITEM DESCRIPTION
Roers Apartments is requesting Tax Increment Financing (TIF) for Roers Eden Prairie
Apartments located at 6436 City West Parkway. Roers Apartments is a 195 unit mixed-income
apartment project that meets the criteria for a new Housing TIF District. The project will be
developed in one phase.
The project proposes to include 20% of the units (39 units) affordable to residents earning at or
below 50% of the Area Median Income (AMI). An additional 5% of the units (10 units) will be
inclusionary housing units as required by City Code and will be affordable to residents earning
at or below 80% of AMI. The remaining 146 units will be market rate.
This request necessitates a Redevelopment Plan modification, creation of a new TIF District No.
27, and a TIF Plan for Roers Apartments. The TIF Plan for TIF District No. 27 is the City’s planning
document for the district. It spells out the objectives and policies for the district, identifies the
geographic boundaries, and sets the maximum budgetary authority for the district. This
planning document simply allows for the creation of a new TIF district. Approval of the TIF Plan
does not grant any specific TIF assistance to the property owner. Assistance is granted through
a separate TIF agreement between the HRA and the developer.
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to:
• Adopt Resolution Adopting a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for
Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 and establishing Tax Increment Financing District No.
27: Roers Eden Prairie Apartments, adopt a Tax Increment Financing Plan therefor, and
approve the TIF Development Agreement
SUMMARY
TIF District No. 27 is being established as a Housing TIF District. The site qualifies as a Housing
TIF District because the project will meet the income requirements outlined above. The TIF Plan
sets up the district for a maximum duration of 26 years.
The maximum budgetary authority in the district is approximately $20.73 million. This is a
maximum budget intended to provide flexibility. It assumes the TIF district runs for the full 26
years. The actual assistance to the property owner is anticipated to be a present value of $4.9
million. Total payments, which include interest paid, are projected to be $9.5 million. Current
estimates show that the amount can be repaid within 21 years. The TIF Plan assumes pay-as-
you-go assistance to the developer. Pay-as-you-go TIF requires the developer to seek its own
financing secured by all or a portion of the tax increments generated by the project. In this
scenario, the City and HRA do not provide the funding up front, but enter into an agreement to
provide tax increments from the increased taxes from the project up to a specific dollar amount
over time. If tax increment is not enough to repay the developer, the City does not make up the
difference.
The TIF Plan also includes a 10% allowance for City administrative costs. The City can use this
10% to pay for any ongoing costs associated with administering the project in the TIF District.
The City Council held a public hearing on the TIF proposal on October 21, 2025. Staff and the
developer have come to terms on the Tax Increment Financing Development Agreement that
lays out the expected distribution of increment, determines the type and number of affordable
units by bedroom size, characterizes responsibilities going forward and more.
Proposed Financing and General Terms:
Housing TIF: Roers is requesting new Housing TIF District financing for Roers Eden Prairie
Apartments. The original request was for $5,070,000 of new TIF in the form of pay-as-you-go
over 26 years. Ehlers Public Finance (our TIF consultants) and staff have reviewed Roers
application. We have determined that the proposal meets the “but for test” for TIF District
financing. However, the development does not require the requested amount of TIF to
generate reasonable profits. Therefore, Ehlers and staff recommends a total of $4.9 million of
present value TIF paid over 21 years. The required affordability will continue for a total of 26
years, however, which is the maximum duration of the TIF district.
Affordable TIF and IH Units: During the 26 year affordability period, Roers would need to
maintain 39 units at rents affordable to households whose incomes do not exceed 50% of the
AMI. Roers would submit annual information to the City regarding the households occupying
these units and the rents they pay compared to commensurate market rate units. Of the 39
affordable TIF units staff recommends a minimum of 20 one bedroom, 16 two-bedroom, and 3
three-bedroom units.
In addition, City Code Chapter 13 requires that the developer provide Inclusionary Housing (IH)
units in perpetuity that must be affordable to households earning up to 80% of AMI. The
developer will be required to provide 10 IH units including 5 one-bedroom units, 4 two-
bedroom units, and 1 three-bedroom unit.
The developer will construct an off-site trail to connect the project to the City West LRT station.
The developer is required to provide actual costs for the trail construction and the TIF note can
be adjusted to include actual trail costs up to $458,531.
The developer is in general agreement with the staff recommendations.

APARTMENTS THEREIN, ADOPTING A TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN THEREFOR AND APPROVING THE TIF DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. WHEREAS, it has been proposed by the Board of Commissioners (the "Board") of the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Eden Prairie (the "HRA") and the City of Eden
Prairie (the "City") that the HRA adopt a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan (the "Redevelopment Plan Modification") for Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 (the "Project Area") and establish Tax Increment Financing District No. 27: Roers Eden Prairie Apartments (the "District"), adopt a Tax Increment Financing Plan (the "TIF Plan") therefor (the Redevelopment Plan Modification and the TIF
Plan are referred to collectively herein as the "Plans"), and approve a TIF Development Agreement (the
(“Agreement”) all pursuant to and in conformity with applicable law, including Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.001 to 469.047, and Sections 469.174 to 469.1794, inclusive, as amended (the "Act"), all as reflected in the Plans and presented for the Board's consideration; and
WHEREAS, the HRA has investigated the facts relating to the Plans and has caused the Plans
to be prepared; and WHEREAS, the HRA has performed all actions required by law to be performed prior to the adoption of the Plans. The City Council has also held a public hearing on October 21, 2025, on the Plans
upon published notice as required by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board as follows: 1. The HRA hereby finds that the District is in the public interest and is a "housing district" under
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subd. 11, and finds that the adoption of the proposed Plans
conforms in all respects to the requirements of the Act and will help fulfill a need to develop an area of the State of Minnesota for affordable and high-quality housing. 2. The HRA further finds that the Plans will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound
needs for the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of the Project Area by private
enterprise in that the intent is to provide only that public assistance necessary to make the private developments financially feasible. 3. The reasons and facts supporting the findings in this resolution are described in the Plans and are
attached here to as Exhibit A.

4. The HRA elects to calculate fiscal disparities for the District in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, Subd. 3, clause b, which means the fiscal disparities contribution would
be taken from inside the District.
5. Upon satisfaction of the contingency in paragraph 10 hereof, the Plans, as presented to the HRA on this date, are hereby approved, established and adopted and shall be placed on file in the office of the Executive Director of the HRA.
6. Upon satisfaction of the contingency in paragraph 10 hereof, the TIF Development Agreement as presented to the HRA on this date, is hereby approved and the Chair and Executive Director are authorized to execute.

City Council, the staff, the HRA's advisors and legal counsel are authorized and directed to proceed with the implementation of the Plans and for this purpose to negotiate, draft, prepare and present to this Board for its consideration all further plans, resolutions, documents and contracts necessary for this purpose. Approval of the Plans does not constitute approval of any project or a
Development Agreement with any developer.
8. Upon satisfaction of the contingency in paragraph 10 hereof, the Executive Director of the HRA is authorized and directed to forward a copy of the Plans to the Minnesota Department of Revenue and the Office of the State Auditor pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 469.175, Subd. 4a.
9. Upon satisfaction of the contingency in paragraph 10 hereof, the Executive Director of the HRA is authorized and directed to forward a copy of the Plans to the Hennepin County Auditor and request that the Auditor certify the original tax capacity of the District as described in the Plans, all in accordance with Minnesota Statutes 469.177.
10. The approval of the Plans and the Agreement and the directions given in paragraphs 6 through 9
are contingent upon receipt by the Executive Director of documentation acceptable to the
Executive Director that Roers Eden Prairie Apartments LLC has acquired fee simple interest in
the Development Property as defined in the TIF Agreement. If the Executive Director does not
receive such documentation on or prior to April 8, 2026, this Resolution, including but not
limited to the approval of the Plans and the Agreement and the directions given in paragraphs 6-9
are null and void and of no further effect. The HRA may but is not required to, take such further
action to confirm that this Resolution is null and void and of no further effect.
ADOPTED by the HRA in and for the City of Eden Prairie this 6th day of January, 2026.

EXHIBIT A
The reasons and facts supporting the findings for the adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden Prairie Apartments), as required pursuant to
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, Subdivision 3 are as follows:
1. Finding that Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden Prairie Apartments) is a
housing district as defined in M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 11.
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden Prairie Apartments) consists of one (1) parcel. The development will consist of the construction of 195 apartment units, including 39
units affordable at 50% of area median income and 10 units affordable at 80% of area median income, all or a portion of which will receive tax increment assistance and will meet income restrictions described in M.S. 469.1761. At least 20 percent of the units receiving assistance will have incomes at or below 50 percent of area median income. Appendix C of the TIF Plan contains background for the above finding.
2. Finding that the proposed development, in the opinion of the HRA, would not reasonably be
expected to occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future.
The proposed development, in the opinion of the HRA, would not reasonably be expected to
occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future: This finding is
supported by the fact that the development proposed in this plan is a housing district that meets
the HRA's objectives for development and redevelopment. The cost of land acquisition, site and
public improvements and utilities makes this housing development infeasible without HRA
assistance. Due to decreased rental income from affordable units, there is insufficient cash flow
to provide a sufficient rate of return, pay operating expenses, and service the debt. This leaves a
gap in the funding for the project and makes this housing development feasible only through
assistance, in part, from tax increment financing. The developer was asked for and provided a
letter and a pro forma as justification that the developer would not have gone forward without tax
increment assistance.
The increased market value of the site that could reasonably be expected to occur without the use
of tax increment financing would be less than the increase in market value estimated to result
from the proposed development after subtracting the present value of the projected tax
increments for the maximum duration of the TIF District permitted by the TIF Plan: This finding
is justified on the grounds that the cost of land acquisition, site and public improvements, utilities
and construction of affordable housing add to the total development cost. Historically, the costs
of site and public improvements as well as reduced rents required for affordable workforce
housing in the City have made development infeasible without tax increment assistance. The
HRA reasonably determines that no other development of similar scope is anticipated on this site
without substantially similar assistance being provided to the development.
4
3. Finding that the TIF Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden Prairie
Apartments) conforms to the general plan for the development or redevelopment of the
municipality as a whole.
The City Council reviewed the TIF Plan and found that the TIF Plan conforms to the general
development plan of the City.
4. Finding that the TIF Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden Prairie
Apartments) will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the City as a
whole, for the development or redevelopment of Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 by private
enterprise.
Through the implementation of the TIF Plan, the HRA will provide an impetus for residential
development, which is desirable or necessary for increased population and an increased need for
life-cycle housing within the City.

the TIF Plan. Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.176, Subd. 1b., the duration of the
District will be 25 years after receipt of the first increment by the HRA or City
(a total of 26 years of tax increment). The HRA or City elects to receive the first
tax increment in 2028 , which is no later than four years following the year of
approval of the District.
Thus, it is estimated that the District, including any modifications of the TIF Plan
for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after 2053 , or when
the TIF Plan is satisfied. The HRA or City reserves the right to decertify the
District prior to the legally required date.

PRIOR PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 7 and M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 1 ,
the Original Net Tax Capacity (ONTC) as certified for the District will be based
on the market values placed on the property by the assessor in 2025 for taxes
payable 2026 .
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 5
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subds. 1 and 2 , the County Auditor shall
certify in each year (beginning in the payment year 202 8) the amount by
which the original value has increased or decreased as a result of:
1. Change in tax exempt status of property;
2. Reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of the D istrict;
3. Change due to adjustments, negotiated or court -ordered abatements;
4. Change in the use of the property and classification;
5. Change in state law governing class rates; or
6. Change in previously issued building permits.
In any year in which the current Net Tax Capacity (NTC) value of the District
declines below the ONTC, no value will be captured and no tax increment will
be payable to the HRA or City .
The original local tax rate for the District will be the local tax rate for taxes
payable 2026 , assuming the request for certification is made before June 30,
2026 . The rates for 202 6 were not available at the time the District was
established. The ONTC and the Original Local Tax Rate for the District appear
in the table below.
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174 Subd. 4 and M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 1, 2,
and 4 , the estimated Captured Net Tax Capacity (CTC) of the District, within
Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 , upon completion of the projects within
the District, will annually approximate tax increment revenues as shown in the
table below. The HRA and City request 100 % of the available increase in tax
capacity be used for repayment of the obligations of the HRA or City and
current expenditures, beginning in the tax year payab le 2028 . The Project Tax
Capacity (PTC) listed is an estimate of values when the projects within the
District are completed.

Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 6
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 4 , the HRA shall, after a due and
diligent search, accompany its request for certification to the County Auditor
or its notice of the District enlargement pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175,
Subd. 4 , with a listing of all properties within the District or area of
enlargement for which building permits have been issued during the eighteen
(18) months immediately preceding approval of the TIF Plan by the
municipality pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 3. The County Auditor
shall increase the original net tax capacity of the District by the net tax
capacity of improvements for which a building permit was issued.
The City has reviewed the area to be included in the District and found no
parcels for which building permits have been issued during the 18 months
immediately preceding approval of the TIF Plan by the City.
SOURCES OF REVENUE/BONDS TO BE ISSUED
The total estimated tax increment revenues for the District are shown in the
table below:
SOURCES
Tax Increment 18,846,905$
Interest 1,884,691
TOTAL 20,731,596$
The costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the
annual collection of tax increments. The HRA or City reserves the right to
issue bonds (as defined in the TIF Act) or incur other indebtedness as a result
of the TIF Plan. As presently proposed, the projects within the District will be
financed by pay -as -you -go notes and interfund loans . Any refunding amounts
will be deemed a budgeted cost without a formal modification to this TIF
Plan. This provision does not obligate the HRA o r City to incur debt. The HRA
or City will issue bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that
such action is in the best interest of the City.
The HRA or City may issue bonds secured in whole or in part with tax
increments from the District in a maximum principal amount of $12,013,846 .
Such bonds may be in the form of pay -as -you -go notes, revenue bonds or
notes, general obligation bonds, or interfund loans. This estimate of total
bonded indebtedness is a cumulative statement of authority under this TIF
Plan as of the date of approval.
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 7
USES OF FUNDS
Currently under consideration for the District is a proposal to facilitate
construction of 199 units of mixed -income apartments in the community. .
The HRA and City have determined that it will be necessary to provide
assistance to the project(s) for certain District costs, as described herein .
The HRA has studied the feasibility of the development or redevelopment of
property in and around the District. To facilitate the establishment and
development or redevelopment of the District, this TIF Plan authorizes the use
of tax increment financing to pay for the cost of certain eligible expenses. The
estimate of public costs and uses of funds associated with the District is
outlined in the following table.
USES
Land/Building Acquisition 5,250,000$
Site Improvements/Preparation 500,000
Affordable Housing 4,129,155
Utilities 250,000
Administrative Costs (up to 10%)1,884,691
PROJECT COSTS TOTAL 12,013,846$
Interest 8,717,750
PROJECT AND INTEREST COSTS TOTAL 20,731,596$
The total project cost, including financing costs (interest) listed in the table
above does not exceed the total projected tax increments for the District as
shown in the Sources of Revenue section.
Estimated costs associated with the District are subject to change among
categories without a modification to th e TIF Plan. The cost of all activities to
be considered for tax increment financing will not exceed, without formal
modification, the budget above pursuant to the applicable statutory
requirements. The HRA may expend funds for qualified housing activities
outside of the District boundaries.
FISCAL DISPARITIES ELECTION
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 3 , the HRA or City may elect one of two
methods to calculate fiscal disparities.
The HRA will choose to calculate fiscal disparities by clause b (inside).

Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 8
E STIMATED IMPACT ON OTHER TAXING JURISDICTIONS
The estimated impact on other taxing jurisdictions assumes that the
redevelopment contemplated by the TIF Plan would occur without the
creation of the District. However, the HRA or City has determined that such
development or redevelopment would not occur "but for" tax increment
financing and that, therefore, the fiscal impact on other taxing jurisdictions is
$0. The estimated fiscal impact of the District would be as follows if the "but
for" test was not met:

Impact on Tax Rates
The estimates listed above display the captured tax capacity when all
construction is completed. The tax rate used for calculations is the Pay 202 5
rate. The total net capacity for the entities listed above are based on Pay
202 5 figures. The District will be certified under the Pay 202 6 rates, which
were unavailable at the time this TIF Plan was prepared.
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175 Subd. 2(b):
(1) Estimate of total tax increment. It is estimated that the total amount
of tax increment that will be generated over the life of the District is
$18,846,905 ;
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 9
(2) Probable impact of the District on city provided services and ability
to issue debt. An impact of the District on police protection is
expected. With any addition of new residents or businesses, police
calls for service will be increased. New developments add an
increase in traffic, and additional overall demands to the call load.
The Cit y does not expect that the proposed development, in and of
itself, will necessitate new capital investment in vehicles or facilities.
The probable impact of the District on fire protection is not expected
to be significant. Typically new buildings generate few er calls and
are of superior construction. The City does not expect that the
proposed development, in and of itself, will necessitate new capital
investment in vehicles or facilities.
The impact of the District on public infrastructure is expected to be
minimal. The development is not expected to significantly impact
any traffic movements in the area. The current infrastructure for
sanitary sewer, storm sewer and water will be able to h andle the
additional volume generated from the proposed development. Based
on the development plans, there are little to no additional costs
associated with street maintenance, sweeping, plowing, lighting and
sidewalks.
The probable impact of the issuance of any general obligation tax
increment bonds payable from tax increment revenues from the
District on the City’s ability to issue debt for general fund purposes is
expected to be minimal. It is not anticipated that ther e will be any
general obligation debt issued in relation to this project, therefore
there will be no impact on the City's ability to issue future debt or on
the City's debt limit.
(3) Estimated amount of tax increment attributable to school district
levies. It is estimated that the amount of tax increments over the life
of the District that would be attributable to school district levies,
assuming the school district's share of the total local tax rate for all
taxing jurisdictions remained the same is $4,030,3 47 ;
(4) Estimated amount of tax increment attributable to county levies. It is
estimated that the amount of tax increments over the life of the
District that would be attributable to county levies, assuming the
county's share of the total local tax rate for all taxing jurisdictions
remained the same, is $7,208,6 28;
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 10
(5) Additional information requested by the county or school district. The
City is not aware of any standard questions in a county or school
district written policy regarding tax increment districts and impact on
county or school district services. The county or school district must
request additional information pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175 Subd.
2(b) within 15 days after receipt of the tax increment financing plan.
No requests for additional information from the county or school
district regarding the proposed development for the District have
been received.
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 1 (a), clause 7 th is TIF Plan must
contain identification and description of studies and analyses used to make
the determination set forth in M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 3, clause (b)(2) and
the findings are required in the resolution approving the District.
(i) In making said determination, reliance has been placed upon (1)
written representation made by the Developer to such effects, (2)
review of the Developer’s pro forma; and (3) City staff awareness of
the feasibility of developing the project site within the District, which
is further outlined in the City Council resolution approving the
establishment of the District and Appendix C.
(ii) A comparative analysis of estimated market value both with and
without establishment of the District and the use of tax increments
has been performed. Such analysis is included with the cashflow in
Appendix B and indicates that the increase in estimated ma rket
value of the proposed development (less the indicated subtractions)
exceeds the estimated market value of the site absent the
establishment of the District and the use of tax increments.

Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers)
Appendix C: Findings Including But/For Qualifications
The reasons and facts supporting the findings for the adoption of the Tax
Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers),
as required pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, (M.S.) Section 469.175,
Subdivision 3 are as follows:
1. Finding that Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) is a housing
district as defined in M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 11.
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) consists of two (2)
parcel s. The development will consist of construction of 199 units of
mixed -income apartments in the community , all or a portion of which
will receive tax increment assistance and will meet income restrictions
described in M.S. Section 469.1761. At least 20% of the units receiving
assistance will be occupied by individuals and families whose incomes
are at or below 50% of area median income.
2. Finding that the proposed development, in the opinion of the City
Council, would not reasonably be expected to occur solely through
private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future.
The proposed development, in the opinion of the City, would not
reasonably be expected to occur solely through private investment
within the reasonably foreseeable future: This finding is supported by
the fact that the development proposed in th e TIF P lan is a housing
district that meets the City's objectives for development and
redevelopment. The cost of land acquisition, site and public
improvements and utilities makes this housing development infeasible
without City assistance. Due to decreased rental in come from
affordable units, there is insufficient cash flow to provide a sufficient
rate of return, pay operating expenses, and service the debt. This leaves
a gap in the funding for the project and makes this housing
development feasible only through assi stance, in part, from tax
increment financing. The Developer was asked for and provided a letter
and a pro forma as justification that the Developer would not have gone
forward without tax increment assistance.
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers)
The increased market value of the site that could reasonably be
expected to occur without the use of tax increment financing would be
less than the increase in market value estimated to result from the
proposed development after subtracting the present val ue of the
projected tax increments for the maximum duration of the District
permitted by the TIF Plan: This finding is justified on the grounds that
the cost of land acquisition, site and public improvements, utilities and
construction of affordable housin g add to the total development cost.
Historically, the costs of site and public improvements as well as
reduced rents required for affordable workforce housing in the City
have made development infeasible without tax increment assistance.
The City reasonably determines that no other development of similar
scope is anticipated on this site without substantially similar assistance
being provided to the development.
3. Finding that the TIF Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27
(Roers) conforms to the general plan for the development or
redevelopment of the municipality as a whole.
The City Council reviewed the TIF Plan and found that the TIF Plan
conforms to the general development plan of the City.
4. Finding that the TIF Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27
(Roers) will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound
needs of the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of
Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 by private enterprise.
Through the implementation of the TIF Plan, the City will provide an
impetus for residential development, which is desirable or necessary for
increased population and an increased need for life -cycle housing within
the City. The TIF Plan also helps the HRA or the City meet their goal of
providing more affordable housing options in the City.

(9) The Developer acknowledges that Tax Increment projections contained in the Tax Increment Financing Plan are estimates only and the Developer acknowledges that it will place no reliance on the amount of projected Tax Increments and the sufficiency of
such Tax Increments to reimburse the Developer for a portion of the costs of the acquisition
of the Development Property and the construction of the Site Improvements as provided in Article III.
9
(10) The Developer will not seek a reduction in the market value (as determined by the City Assessor) of the Project or other facilities, if any, that it constructs on the Development Property, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, for the duration of the TIF District. ARTICLE III UNDERTAKINGS BY DEVELOPER AND HRA Section 3.1 Project, Site Improvements and Development Property. The parties agree that
the acquisition of the Development Property and the installation of the Site Improvements is
essential to the successful completion of the Project. The Developer will pay the costs of the Development Property and the Site Improvements. The HRA will reimburse the Developer for the Reimbursement Amount, as further provided in Section 3.3 hereof.
Section 3.2 Limitations on Undertaking of the HRA. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 3.1, the HRA will have no obligation to the Developer under this Agreement to reimburse the Developer for the costs identified in Section 3.1,if the HRA, at the time or times such payment is to be made, is entitled under Section 4.2 to exercise any of the remedies set forth therein as a result of an Event of Default which has not been cured.
Section 3.3 Reimbursement: TIF Note. The HRA will reimburse the payments made by the Developer under Section 3.1 for costs of the acquisition of the Development Property and the construction of Site Improvements through the issuance of the HRA’s TIF Note in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B, subject to the following conditions:
(1) The TIF Note will be dated, issued and delivered when the Developer has demonstrated in writing to the reasonable satisfaction of the HRA that (i) the Developer has incurred and paid the costs of the acquisition of the Development Property and of the construction of Site Improvements in the amount of the Reimbursement Amount, as
described in and limited by Section 3.1; and (ii) the Developer has submitted paid invoices
for the costs of construction of the Site Improvements (to the HRA and to an escrow agent providing construction loan disbursing services for the Project (if any)) and a settlement statement or other evidence of payment of the costs of the acquisition of the Development Property, which are collectively in an amount not less than the Reimbursement Amount.
(2) The initial amount of the TIF Note will be the Reimbursement Amount less any Trail Cost Reduction as described in Section 3.8. The unpaid principal of the TIF Note will bear simple non-compounding interest from the date of issuance of the TIF Note, at the rate equal to the lesser of 6.25% per annum or the rate per annum on the Developer’s
permanent first lien mortgage financing for the construction of the Project Interest will be
computed on the basis of a 360 day year consisting of twelve (12) 30-day months. (3) The Tax Increment District has a maximum duration of twenty-six (26) years under the Tax Increment Act. The TIF Note is payable by the HRA to Developer
over a maximum of twenty-one (21) years or until the Reimbursement Amount is paid in full, whichever occurs first. Developer must continue to meet its obligations under this Agreement, including provision of the Affordable Units as provided in Section 3.4, until
10
the TIF District Expiration Date, despite the earlier completion of the TIF Payments. (4) The principal amount of the TIF Note and the interest thereon will be payable solely from the Available Tax Increments.
(5) On each TIF Note Payment Date and subject to the provisions of the TIF Note, the HRA will pay, against the principal and interest outstanding on the TIF Note, any Available Tax Increments received by the HRA during the preceding six (6) months. All such payments will be applied first to accrued interest and then to reduce the principal of
the TIF Note.
(6) The TIF Note will be a special and limited obligation of the HRA and not a general obligation of the HRA, and only Available Tax Increments will be used to pay the principal and interest on the TIF Note. If, on any TIF Note Payment Date, the Available
Tax Increments for the payment of the accrued and unpaid interest on the TIF Note are
insufficient for such purposes, the difference will be carried forward, without interest accruing thereon, and will be paid if and to the extent that on a future TIF Note Payment Date there are Available Tax Increments in excess of the amounts needed to pay the accrued interest then due on the TIF Note.
(7) The HRA’s obligation to make payments on the TIF Note on any TIF Note Payment Date or any date thereafter will be conditioned upon the requirements that: (A) there is not at that time an Event of Default that has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement beyond any applicable notice and cure period and (B) this Agreement has not
been rescinded pursuant to Section 4.2.
(8) The TIF Note will be governed by and payable pursuant to the additional terms thereof, as set forth in Exhibit B. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the TIF Note and the terms of this Section 3.3, the terms of the TIF Note will govern. The
issuance of the TIF Note pursuant and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and the
taking by the HRA of such additional actions as the HRA’s attorney may require in connection therewith, are hereby authorized and approved by the HRA.
Section 3.4 Compliance with Low and Moderate Income Requirements.
(1) The HRA and the Developer understand and agree that the Tax Increment District will constitute a “housing district” under Section 469.174, Subd. 11 of the Tax
Increment Act. Accordingly, in compliance with Section 469.1761, Subd. 3 of the Tax
Increment Act, the Developer agrees that the Project must satisfy, or be treated as satisfying, the income requirements for a qualified residential rental project as defined in Section 142(d) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Developer must meet the above requirements as follows:
(A) Affordable Units. At least thirty-nine (39) of the residential units in the Project must be Affordable Units and must be occupied or available for occupancy by persons whose incomes do not exceed 50% of AMI. The Affordable Units must include 20 one-bedroom units, 16 two-bedroom units, and 3 three-bedroom units. The obligation of Developer to provide the Affordable Units will survive and
11
remain in full force and effect through the TIF District Termination Date. (B) Inclusionary Units. For so long as the Development Property is used for a residential rental project, a minimum of ten (10) units in the Project must remain
affordable in perpetuity as Inclusionary Units to households whose annual income
is at 80% or less of AMI. The Inclusionary Units must include 5 one-bedroom units, 4 two-bedroom units, and 1 three-bedroom unit. The Inclusionary Units are subject, including rents and incomes, to review and approval by the City in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Inclusionary Units are further subject to the
requirements of Eden Prairie City Code § 13.03. The obligation of Developer to
provide Inclusionary Units as set forth in this Agreement, including in this Section 3.4(1)(B), will survive and remain in full force and effect after expiration, cancellation, termination, or rescission of this Agreement pursuant to its terms or by either party.
(C) Rent Restrictions. For so long as Developer is obligated to provide such units under this Agreement, Developer must restrict gross rents and incomes in the Project for the Affordable Units and the Inclusionary Units to amounts not exceeding the Multifamily Rent and Income Limits set by the United States
Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and promulgated by the
Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (“MHFA”) (or, if MHFA no longer promulgates such data, then by a similar resource that promulgates the HUD data), as adjusted for family size, as the same may be updated from time-to-time. Attached hereto as Exhibit D are the Multifamily Rent and Income Limits in effect as of the
date of this Agreement. Fees and charges for services or amenities in excess of base
rent shall be included in the maximum gross rent if payment of such fees or charges is required as a condition of occupancy, in accordance with the Tax Increment Act, Section 142(d) of the Internal Revenue Code, and Treasury Regulation 26 C.F.R. § 1.42-11. If the cost of any utility (other than telephone, cable television, or internet)
for an Affordable Unit or Inclusionary Unit is paid directly by the tenant(s), and not
by or through Developer, the gross rent for that unit includes the applicable utility allowance determined in accordance with 26 C.F.R. 1.42-10. If the costs of a particular utility are paid pursuant to an actual-consumption submetering arrangement within the meaning of that section, then that cost is treated as paid
directly by the tenant and not by or through the owner. If all utilities are paid by the
owner, there is no utility allowance and the costs of utilities shall be included in gross rent. (D) Income Increase. Developer shall comply with the requirements of 26
U.S.C. § 142(d)(3) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, as the same may
be amended from time to time, with respect to income increase of a tenant during the term of the tenancy. (2) The obligations of Section 3.4(1)(A), (B), and (C) will not terminate but will remain in full force and effect in the event of an Event of Default under Section 4.1.
(3) Reporting Requirements – Affordable Units.
12
(A) Compliance Certificate. On or before each January 1 and July 1, commencing on January 1, 2029 and continuing through the TIF District Expiration Date, the Developer or an agent of the Developer must deliver or cause to be delivered to the HRA an Affordable Unit Compliance Certificate in substantially the form shown on Exhibit E attached hereto, executed by the Developer covering
the preceding six (6) months together with written evidence satisfactory to the HRA of compliance with the covenants in Section 3.4(1)(A) and (C).

The HRA may review, upon request, all documentation supporting the Developer’s
submissions and statements. In determining compliance with this Section, the Developer must use the AMI for the year in which the payment is due on the TIF Note. (B) Rent Roll. On or before each January 1, commencing on January 1,
2029 and continuing through the TIF District Expiration Date, the Developer or an agent of the Developer must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Executive Director a Rent Roll Certificate for the Affordable Units as described in Section 3.4(1)(A) (“Affordable Unit Rent Roll”), in substantially the form shown on Exhibit F attached hereto, executed by the Developer covering the preceding twelve
(12) months together with a written certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Executive Director that Developer is in compliance with the covenants in Section 3.4(1)(A) and (C). The Affordable Unit Rent Roll must set forth (i) the rent for each Affordable Unit and (ii) for each Affordable Unit, the rent for a comparable market rate unit. The Executive Director will review the Affordable Unit Rent Roll and
will approve any proposed Affordable Unit Rent Roll, provided such rents are not in excess of the rent limits in this Section 3.4(C). Any Affordable Unit Rent Roll submitted by the Developer will be considered approved unless disapproved by the Executive Director within sixty (60) days after submission. The Executive Director must provide written reasons if any Affordable Unit Rent Roll is disapproved. The
Developer will have sixty (60) days following receipt of any notice of disapproval to cure any objections the Executive Director has made in its notice of disapproval and to submit a revised Affordable Unit Rent Roll to the Executive Director for review and approval as provided in this Section. The Developer’s failure to obtain the Executive Director’s approval of a revised Affordable Unit Rent Roll during
such sixty (60) day cure period will constitute a default by Developer. (4) Reporting Requirements – Inclusionary Units.
(A) Compliance Certificate. On or before each January 1 of each year,
commencing on January 1, 2029 the Developer or an agent of the Developer must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Executive Director an Inclusionary Unit Compliance Certificate in substantially the form shown on Exhibit G attached

hereto, executed by the Developer covering the preceding twelve (12) months together with written evidence satisfactory to the Executive Director of compliance with the covenants in Section 3.4(1)(B) and (C). This evidence must include a statement of the household income of each qualifying renter, a written
determination that each qualifying renter’s household income falls within the
qualifying limits of this Section (and Section 142(d) of the Internal Revenue Code), and certification that the income documentation is correct and accurate (and that the determination of qualification was made in compliance with Section 142(d) of the Internal Revenue Code).

documentation supporting the Developer’s submissions and statements. In
determining compliance with this Section, the Developer must use the AMI for the preceding calendar year. (B) Rent Roll. On or before each January 1 commencing on January 1,
2029 the Developer or an agent of the Developer must deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Executive Director an Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll Certificate for the Inclusionary Units as described in Section 3.4(1)(B) (“Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll”), in substantially the form shown on Exhibit H attached hereto, executed by the Developer covering the preceding twelve (12) months together with a written
certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Executive Director that Developer is in
compliance with the covenants in Section 3.4(1)(B) and (C). The Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll must set forth (i) the rent for each Inclusionary Unit and (ii) for each Inclusionary Unit, the rent for a comparable market rate unit. The Executive Director will review the Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll and will approve any proposed
Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll, provided such rents are not in excess of the rent limits
in Section 3.4(1)(C). Any Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll submitted by the Developer will be considered approved unless disapproved by the Executive Director within sixty (60) days after submission. The Executive Director must provide written reasons if any Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll is disapproved. The Developer will have
sixty (60) days following receipt of any notice of disapproval to cure any objections
the Executive Director has made in its notice of disapproval and to submit a revised Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll to the Executive Director for review and approval as provided in this Section. The Developer’s failure to obtain the Executive Director’s approval of a revised Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll during such sixty (60) day cure
period will constitute a default by Developer.
(5) On or before each January 1 and July 1, commencing on January 1, 2029 and continuing (a) for the Affordable Units, for so long as Developer is obligated to provide such units under this Agreement and (b) for the Inclusionary Units, in perpetuity for so
long as the Development Property is used for a residential rental project, the Developer or
an agent of the Developer must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Executive Director an Income Certification from each tenant leasing an Affordable Unit or an Inclusionary Unit, such certification to be in substantially the form shown on Exhibit I attached hereto, executed by the tenant covering the preceding six (6) months for an Affordable Unit and
the preceding twelve (12) months for an Inclusionary Unit.
(6) Developer may not refuse to lease any Affordable Unit or Inclusionary Unit to a prospective tenant on the basis of the prospective tenant’s receipt of, or eligibility for,
14
housing assistance, social security, Housing Choice Vouchers, or other types of public or private assistance and must accept a Housing Choice Voucher as a valid form of income.
Section 3.5 Assessment Agreement. The Assessment Agreement in form attached hereto as Exhibit J, must be executed by the Developer and the HRA as of the date of execution of this Agreement, and the Owner must cause the Assessment Agreement and an executed Assessor’s
Certificate, in the form attached thereto, to be recorded against the Development Property.
Section 3.6 Tax Rate Classification. In the event of legislative changes reducing the tax rate classification of certain qualified low-income rental housing under Minn. Stat. § 273.13, subdivision 25(e), Developer expressly agrees and acknowledges that the HRA will require the Developer to exchange the TIF Note for a replacement TIF Note issued in a principal amount
determined based on revised projections of Available Tax Increments as calculated by the HRA or
its tax increment financing consultant, provided that such projections will only take into account the reduced present value of tax increments resulting from the legislative changes. Developer will so exchange the TIF note upon request of the HRA. The HRA will have no right to change (i) the length in time which the then-adjusted Available Tax Increments are paid, which shall be a
maximum of 21 years, (ii) the percentage in which it determines the Available Tax Increments,
which will be at ninety percent (90%) of the Tax Increment attributable to the Development Property and paid to the HRA by the County in the six months preceding the TIF Note Payment Date, or (iii) to change any date of performance as defined in the TIF Note. Notwithstanding the date the HRA determines the adjusted principal amount of the TIF Note, such adjustment will date
back to the date any such legislative change affects Available Tax Increments.
Section 3.7 Lookback. (1) Generally. The financial assistance to the Developer under this Agreement is based
on certain assumptions regarding likely performance of the Project, including operating revenues, expenses, and development costs of constructing the Project. The HRA and the Developer agree that the actual financial performance of the Project will be reviewed at the time described in this Section, and that the Reimbursement Amount will be adjusted accordingly. Developer must provide the HRA and its municipal advisor (the “Consultant”) with Pro Forma Financial
Statements showing a target Yield on Cost Return of 7.25%.
(2) Definitions. For the purposes of this Section 3.7, the following terms have the following meanings:
“Calculation Date” means the earliest of (A) 90 days after the earlier of (i) the date of Stabilization; (ii) two years after the date of completion of the Project, as evidenced by the
City’s issuance of a Certificate of Completion, or; (B) at least 30 days prior to the sale of the Project. “Yield on Cost Return” means NOI divided by the Project’s actual Total Development
Costs, calculated as set forth in the sample lookback calculation attached as Exhibit K.
“Net Operating Income (NOI)” means total annual income and other project-derived annual revenue, including payments under the TIF Note, less Operating Expenses, which exclude debt service payments. For purposes of the Yield on Cost Return calculation on
15
the Calculation Date, (i) revenue shall be based upon 95% occupancy regardless of whether the average occupancy for the measured period is higher or lower than 95%, (ii) revenue for periods after the Calculation Date shall be inflated by 2% annually, and (iii) Operating Expenses for periods after the Calculation Date, shall be inflated by 2% annually.
“Operating Expenses” means reasonable and customary expenses actually incurred in operating the Project and any other expenses actually incurred by the Developer pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement, determined in the same manner as shown in the Pro Forma Financial Statement, which excludes expenses after debt service, and includes
administrative, payroll, marketing, insurance, property management fees, utilities,
maintenance, deposits to commercially reasonable capital replacement reserves and payment of real estate taxes, but subject to final review and acceptance by the Consultant. “Pro Forma Financial Statement” means the Project cash flow pro forma model financial
statement projecting future returns, a summary of which is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit L. “Stabilization” means the calendar month-end date on which the Project has first achieved an average occupancy of 90% during the preceding 12 calendar months, or such earlier
date as may be requested by the Developer but, for purposes of the Yield on Cost Return
calculation, assuming 95% occupancy notwithstanding actual occupancy rate as of such date. “Total Project Cost” means the total expenditures incurred to complete development of the
Project inclusive of land acquisition, hard construction costs, soft costs and financing costs
as approved by Developer’s senior construction debt lender. (3) On the Calculation Date, the Developer must deliver to the HRA and Consultant, at a minimum, (i) the Developer’s actual financial statement, in the same form as the Pro Forma
Financial Statement submitted to the HRA pursuant to clause (1) above and showing NOI, and
such other financial information as the Consultant shall reasonably require, for the trailing 12-month period preceding the Calculation Date calculated as of the Calculation Date as provided herein and as set forth in the Pro Forma Financial Statement and (ii) evidence, satisfactory to the HRA, of its Total Project Cost.
(4) The average annual Yield on Cost Return will be calculated by the Consultant based
on the Project financial statement submitted to the HRA pursuant to clause (3) above, (in the manner the Consultant determines is consistent with the sample lookback calculation attached as Exhibit L, as approved by the HRA).
(5) If the average annual Yield on Cost Return does not exceed 7.25% over the term of
the TIF Note, the TIF Note will remain set at the Reimbursement Amount.
(6) If the Consultant determines, based on such review, that the average annual Yield on Cost Return over the term of the TIF Note exceeds 7.25% (to be calculated in a manner comparable to the sample attached as Exhibit K), then the Reimbursement Amount of the TIF Note will be reduced by an amount calculated in the manner the Consultant determines is
16
consistent with clause (7) below. In no event, however, will the Reimbursement Amount reduced below $4,980,816.25
(7) The Consultant will determine the amount of the reduction of the Reimbursement Amount of the TIF Note, calculated in the manner the Consultant determines is consistent with the
sample lookback calculation attached as Exhibit L, by:
(a) First, determining the period over which the TIF Note needs to be outstanding to achieve a 7.25% average annual Yield on Cost Return over the term of the TIF Note based on the Consultant’s calculation of the average annual Yield on Cost Return.
(b) Second, by determining the present value of actual or projected (with respect
to future payments) annual TIF Note payments over the life of the TIF Note through the
year determined in clause (a) using the interest rate on the TIF Note as the present value discount rate.
(c) Third, by determining the amount equal to 50% of the difference between the original principal amount of the TIF Note and the present value number calculated in
clause (b).
(d) Finally, the new Reimbursement Amount of the TIF Note will then be determined by adding the amounts in clauses (b) and (c) and rounding to the nearest $1,000 (the “Revised TIF Note Reimbursement Amount”).
Such Revised TIF Note Reimbursement Amount will be effective upon delivery to the Developer
of a written notice stating the Revised TIF Note Reimbursement Amount as determined by the
Consultant in accordance with this Section, accompanied by the Consultant’s report. The Developer shall, thereupon, deliver the TIF Note in exchange for a new TIF Note in the Revised TIF Note Reimbursement Amount.
Section 3.8 Trail Construction. In connection with the Project and at the request of the City
and the HRA, Developer has agreed to construct and pay for a public trail on parcels adjacent to the Development Property in substantially the same location, design, and materials that were used to calculate the Estimated Trail Costs, with any proposed modifications subject to the prior consent of the City, which consent may be granted or withheld in the City’s reasonable discretion (the “Trail”), which trail will connect to a trail to be constructed on the Development Property. The
cost to construct the Trail is estimated at $366,825.00. The Reimbursement Amount includes an amount equal to this estimated cost plus an additional 25% contingency, for a total of $458,531.25 (the “Estimated Trail Costs”). In conjunction with Developer’s submissions under Section 3.3(1), Developer shall also submit to the City and the HRA a detailed itemization of its costs incurred in constructing the Trail (the “Actual Trail Costs”). If the Actual Trail Costs are less than the
Estimated Trail Costs, the Reimbursement Amount shall be reduced by the difference between Estimated Trail Costs and the Actual Trail Costs (the “Trail Cost Reduction”) and the Principal Amount of the TIF Note will reflect this reduction. If the Actual Trail Costs exceed the Estimated Trail Costs, the City/HRA will reimburse Developer for the excess costs with other City funds, up to a maximum of $60,000.
17
ARTICLE IV EVENTS OF DEFAULT Section 4.1 Events of Default Defined. The following are “Events of Default” under this
Agreement and the term “Event of Default” will mean, whenever it is used in this Agreement, any
one or more of the following events: (1) Failure by the Developer to timely pay any ad valorem real property taxes assessed and special assessments or other City or HRA charges with respect to the Development Property.
(2) Failure by the Developer to cause the construction of the Project to be completed pursuant to the terms, conditions, and limitations of this Agreement. (3) Failure of the Developer to observe or perform any covenant, condition,
obligation, or agreement on its part to be observed or performed under this Agreement including failure to provide the Affordable Units or Inclusionary Units. (4) The holder of any mortgage on the Development Property or any
improvements thereon, or any portion thereof, commences foreclosure proceedings as a
result of any default under the applicable mortgage documents. (5) If the Developer: (A) files any petition in bankruptcy or for any reorganization,
arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under the United States Bankruptcy Act of 1978, as amended or under any similar federal or state law; or
(B) makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or
(C) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or
(D) is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent; or if a petition or answer
proposing the adjudication of the Developer as bankrupt or its reorganization under any present or future federal bankruptcy act or any similar federal or state law is filed in any court and such petition or answer is not discharged or denied within sixty (60) days after the filing thereof; or a receiver, liquidator or trustee of the
Developer, or of the Project, or part thereof, is appointed in any proceeding brought
against the Developer, and is not discharged within sixty (60) days after such appointment, or if the Developer consents to or acquiesces in such appointment. Section 4.2 Remedies on Default. Whenever any Event of Default referred to in Section 4.1
occurs and is continuing, the HRA, as specified below, may take any one or more of the following
actions after the giving of sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Developer, but only if the Event of Default has not been cured within said sixty (60) days provided however, the notice required for the action (3) below will be five (5) business days’ written notice to the Developer.
18
(1) Subject to providing notice as specified above and in addition to any other remedy, this Agreement may be terminated by the HRA in the event of a failure by Developer to provide the Affordable Units in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Upon termination pursuant to this paragraph, the Developer must pay to the HRA the
present value of an amount equal to the following (such amount, the “TIF Excess”): the amount of the Tax Increments actually received by Developer to the date of the termination, less the amount of the Developer Rent Subsidy provided. For purposes of this paragraph, “Developer Rent Subsidy” means the amount by which the aggregate rent collected for the
Affordable Units is less than would have been collected if such Affordable Units were
rented at rates equal to the average rent of the same unit types (e.g. studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom), measured annually at the end of each calendar year. By way of example only, if a one-bedroom apartment that was an Affordable Unit was rented for an entire calendar year at a rate of $1,000 per month, and the average rent collected for all other one-
bedroom units at the Project (other than those that are Affordable Units) for such calendar
year was $1,100 per month, the Developer Rent Subsidy for that Affordable Unit for the applicable calendar year will be $1,200.00. Any payment required hereunder must be made promptly following receipt by Developer of a written demand by the HRA. For purposes of determining the present value of the TIF Excess, a rate of return of 6.25% per annum
will be used, accruing from the end of the calendar year for which the TIF Excess is
calculated. (2) The HRA may suspend its performance under this Agreement and the TIF Note until it receives assurances from the Developer, deemed adequate by the HRA, that
the Developer will cure its default and continue its performance under this Agreement.
(3) Notwithstanding any other remedy provided for herein, upon a default in submitting the Affordable Unit Compliance Certificate required by Section 3.4(3)(A) that has not been cured within five (5) business days of notice specified above, the HRA may
suspend its performance under this Agreement and the TIF Note until the Compliance
Certificate is filed and is in compliance with the requirements of Section 3.4(3)(A). (4) The HRA may cancel and rescind this Agreement and the TIF Note.
(5) The HRA may take any action, including legal or administrative action, in
law or equity, which may appear necessary or desirable to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement, or covenant of the Developer under this Agreement. Notwithstanding an Event of Default, if the HRA does not cancel and rescind the Agreement and the TIF Note, the obligations under Section 3.4 remain in full force and
effect.
(6) The obligation of Developer to provide Inclusionary Units as set forth in this Agreement, including in Section 3.4(1)(B) will survive and remain in full force and effect in perpetuity for so long as the Development Property is used for a residential rental
project, including after the exercise of any remedy including but not limited to termination,
cancelation, or rescission of this Agreement by either party. In the event that this Agreement is terminated for any reason, upon request by a party, the parties agree to execute and record an instrument against the Development Property providing for the
19
Inclusionary Units as set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, after the termination of this Agreement, the HRA’s remedies as related to covenants and restrictions related to the Inclusionary Units shall be limited to the equitable remedies of specific performance and injunctive relief, as applicable.
(7) The obligation of Developer to provide Affordable Units through and until the TIF District Expiration Date as set forth in this Agreement in Sections 3.4(1) will survive and remain in full force and effect after the exercise of any remedy including but not limited to earlier termination, cancelation, or rescission of this Agreement by either
party. In the event that this Agreement is terminated for any reason, upon request by a
party, the parties agree to record an instrument against the Development Property providing for the continuation of the Affordable Units through and until the TIF District Expiration Date as set forth in this Agreement.
Section 4.3 No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the HRA
is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy will be cumulative and will be in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default will impair any such right or power or will
be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to
time and as often as may be deemed expedient. Section 4.4 No Implied Waiver. In the event any agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement is breached by any party and thereafter waived by the other party, such waiver will be
limited to the particular breach so waived and will not be deemed to waive any other concurrent,
previous, or subsequent breach hereunder. Section 4.5 Agreement to Pay Attorney’s Fees and Expenses. Whenever any Event of Default occurs and the HRA employs attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of
payments due or to become due or for the enforcement or performance or observance of any
obligation or agreement on the part of the Developer under this Agreement, the Developer agrees that it will, on demand therefor, pay to the HRA the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other expenses so incurred by the HRA.
Section 4.6 Indemnification of HRA.
(1) The Developer releases from and covenants and agrees that the HRA and its governing body members, officers, agents, independent contractors, consultants, legal counsel, servants, and employees (hereinafter, for purposes of this Section, collectively the “Indemnified
Parties”) will not be liable for and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties
against any loss or damage to property or any injury to or death of any person occurring at or about or resulting from any defect in the Project, provided that the foregoing indemnification will not be effective for any actions of the Indemnified Parties that are not contemplated by this Agreement.
(2) Except for any willful misrepresentation or any negligent, willful or wanton
misconduct of the Indemnified Parties, the Developer agrees to protect and defend the Indemnified Parties, now and forever, and further agrees to hold the Indemnified Parties harmless from any claim, demand, suit, action, or other proceeding by any person or entity arising or purportedly
20
arising from the actions or inactions of the Developer (or other persons acting on its behalf or under its direction or control) under this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or the acquisition, construction, installation, ownership, and operation of the Project. This indemnification will not apply to the warranties made or obligations undertaken by the HRA
in this Agreement or to any actions undertaken by the HRA that are not contemplated by this
Agreement but will, in any event and without regard to any fault on the part of the HRA, apply to any pecuniary loss or penalty (including interest thereon from the date the loss is incurred or penalty is paid by the HRA at a rate equal to the Prime Rate) as a result of the Developer operating the Project so that the Tax Increment District does not qualify or ceases to qualify as a “housing
district” under Section 469.174, Subdivision 11, of the Act or to violate limitations as to the use
of Tax Increments as set forth in Section 469.176, Subdivision 4d. (3) All covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements, and obligations of the HRA contained herein will be deemed to be the covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements, and
obligations of the HRA only and not of any governing body member, officer, agent, servant, or
employee of the HRA.
ARTICLE V HRA DEFAULT AND DEVELOPER'S REMEDIES Section 5.1 The Developer’s Option to Terminate. This Agreement may be terminated by the
Developer if (i) the Developer is in compliance with all material terms of this Agreement and no
Event of Default has occurred; and (ii) the HRA fails to comply with any material term of this Agreement, and, after written notice by the Developer of such failure, the HRA has failed to cure such noncompliance within ninety (90) days of receipt of such notice, or, if such noncompliance cannot reasonably be cured by the HRA within ninety (90) days of receipt of such notice, the HRA
has not provided assurances, reasonably satisfactory to the Developer, that such noncompliance
will be cured as soon as reasonably possible. Section 5.2 Action to Terminate. To terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.1, Developer must provide written notice to the HRA within sixty (60) days after the date when such
option to terminate may first be exercised. A failure by the Developer to terminate this Agreement
within such period constitutes a waiver by the Developer of its rights to terminate this Agreement due to such occurrence or event. Section 5.3 Effect of Developer Termination. Except as provided in Section 6.7, if this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Article V, this Agreement will be null and void and of
no further effect; provided, however, the termination of this Agreement will not affect the rights of either party to institute any action, claim, or demand for damages suffered as a result of breach or default of the terms of this Agreement by the other party, or to recover amounts which had accrued and become due and payable as of the date of such termination. Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Article V, the Developer is free to proceed with the Project at its own
expense and without regard to the provisions of this Agreement except as provided in Sections 4.2(6) and 4.2(7); provided, however, that the HRA will have no further obligations to the Developer with respect to reimbursement of the expenses set forth in Section 3.2. Section 5.4 HRA Covenant to Comply. The HRA covenants that it will comply with all
payment obligations required of it under this Agreement and that it will take no action that will
21
directly or indirectly impair its ability to repay the TIF Note or otherwise frustrate the purposes of the Tax Increment Financing Plan. Developer may enforce this provision in an action seeking declaratory relief, specific performance, or injunctive relief but not an action for damages. The provisions of this Section are subject to the provisions of Section 5.1 and the opportunity to cure.
ARTICLE VI ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
Section 6.1 Restrictions on Use. The Developer agrees for itself, its successors and assigns
and every successor in interest to the Development Property, or any part thereof, that during the term of this Agreement the Developer and such successors and assigns will operate, or cause to be operated, the Project as a multifamily rental housing facility (subject to the limitations set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) and will devote the Development Property to, and in accordance
with, the uses specified in this Agreement.
Section 6.2 Conflicts of Interest. No member of the governing body or other official of the HRA may have any financial interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement, the Development Property or the Project, or any contract, agreement, or other transaction contemplated to occur or be undertaken thereunder or with respect thereto, nor may any such member of the governing body
or other official participate in any decision relating to the Agreement which affects his or her personal interests or the interests of any corporation, partnership, or association in which he or she is directly or indirectly interested. No member, official, or employee of the HRA will be personally liable to the HRA in the event of any default or breach by the Developer or its successor of any obligations under the terms of this Agreement.
Section 6.3 Titles of Articles and Sections. Any titles of the several parts, articles, and sections of the Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and must be disregarded in construing or interpreting any of its provisions.

This Agreement may be assigned to a new Developer only with the consent of the Executive Director, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.

shall use good faith efforts to grant or deny requests within twenty business days (20) days after receipt of request and submission of all information requested by the Executive Director. The requirement of the consent of the Executive Director of the HRA under this Section shall not apply in the event of foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or other transfer of the Project or the
Development Property as a result of a financing default, which events shall be governed by Section
6.10. Section 6.9 Certification by HRA Upon Transfer of the Project. In the event that the
23
Developer or other transferor sells or transfers the Project or any portion to any person and assigns this Agreement, then, within 15 business days after request, the Executive Director or his/her designee shall acknowledge and certify whether or not there exists any defaults, events of default, or conditions which with the passage of time or giving of notice would constitute a default under
this Agreement, provided that the Executive Director has consented to the assignment as provided
in Section 6.9. Section 6.10 Financing of the Project. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Developer is authorized, without the approval of HRA, to obtain financing for the Project
and to mortgage the Development Property, assign the TIF Note and/or payments thereunder to a
lender having a mortgage encumbering the Development, or collaterally assign this Agreement to provide security for the financing. If a financing party requires HRA to consent in writing to the financing, assignment or collateral assignment, the Executive Director is authorized to execute any requested document after review and approval by the City Attorney. In the event of foreclosure,
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or other transfer of the Project or the Development Property as a result
of a financing default, the acquiring party shall not need the approval of the HRA for the transfer of the Project or the Development Property or the assignment of this Agreement, and if the acquiring party is the lender, then no approval shall be needed from the HRA for the subsequent transfer of the Project or the Development Property or the assignment of this Agreement by the
acquiring lender or its affiliates to a third party.
If the HRA delivers any notice or demand to Developer of an Event of Default, the HRA will deliver a copy of such notice or demand to the lender having a mortgage encumbering the Development Property at the address of such lender provided in the recorded mortgage or any
other address thereafter provided to the HRA in a written notice from Developer or the lender,
provided that failure of the HRA to give any such notice shall not limit the HRA’s ability to exercise any of its remedies hereunder as long as lender retains the ability to cure as follows. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, a lender having a mortgage will have the right, at lender’s option, to cure or remedy such Event of Default for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days
after written notice to lender of the Event of Default from the HRA, which time period shall be
extended as long as lender is actively attempting to cure or remedy such Event of Default. Section 6.11 Agreement Binding and Transfer of Project or the Development Property. The terms and provision hereof shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the heirs,
representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto, including an acquiring party which
acquires title to the Project or the Development Property through foreclosure, deed in-lieu of foreclosure or other transfer of the Project or the Development Property as a result of a financing default, and shall be binding upon all future owners of all or any part of the Project or the Development Property and shall be deemed covenants running with the land.

WITHIN REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA NO. 5
PRINCIPAL AMOUNT: $________________ INTEREST RATE: 4%
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Eden Prairie, Minnesota (the “HRA”) hereby acknowledges itself to be indebted and, for value received, promises to pay
to the order of Roers Eden Prairie Apartments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“Owner”), or its permitted assigns (as such term is defined herein), solely from the source, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter provided, the principal amount of this Note, being _________________________________________ (the “Principal Amount”), commencing on August 1, 2028 and continuing on each August 1 and February 1 thereafter up to and including
February 1, 2049 (the “Scheduled Payment Dates”). Simple interest at the rate of six and one-
quarter percent (6.25%) per annum will accrue from the date of this Note on the Principal Amount and will be paid together with the Principal Amount on each February 1 and August 1. From and after August 1, 2028, all payments made by the HRA will be applied first to accrued interest and then to the Principal Amount of this TIF Note.
This Tax Increment Revenue Note of 20__ (“TIF Note”) is issued pursuant, and subject, to the terms and provisions of that certain Tax Increment Development Agreement, dated as of _____________, 2026, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “TIF Development Agreement”), by and between the HRA and Owner.
Provided that the Owner has submitted evidence (pursuant to Section 3.3 of the TIF Development Agreement) to the HRA that costs of Owner’s Site Improvements (as defined in the TIF Development Agreement) have been incurred and paid by the Owner as provided in the TIF Development Agreement, the principal and interest amounts due under this TIF Note (the “TIF
Note Payment Amounts”) will be payable on August 1, 2028, and on each February 1 and August
1 thereafter to and including the earlier of the date on which total principal payments equal $_____________________ or February 1, 2049, or, if the first should not be a Business Day (as
defined in the TIF Development Agreement) the next succeeding Business Day (the “Note Payment Dates”). On each Note Payment Date the HRA will pay, by check or draft mailed to the
person that was the Registered Owner of this TIF Note at the close of the last Business Day
preceding such Note Payment Date, the Available Tax Increments (as defined in the TIF Development Agreement) received by the HRA from the Tax Increment District (as hereinafter defined) since the preceding Note Payment Date or, in the case of the first Note Payment Date, prior to such first Note Payment Date, as provided in the TIF Development Agreement. All
payments will be first applied to interest accrued on the TIF Note and then to the unpaid principal
of the TIF Note. The HRA will not be required to make any payments on the Note subsequent to the date on which total principal payments equal $__________________ or February 1, 2049, whichever is earlier, and any balance of principal and interest remaining unpaid subsequent thereto will be deemed forgiven by the Owner. In no event will the total principal paid under this Note
exceed the amount of $4,980,816.25.
TIF Note will bear simple non-compounding interest from the date of issuance of the TIF Note, at 6.25% per annum. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve (12) 30-day months. The TIF Note Payment Amounts due hereon will be payable solely from the Available Tax Increments. This TIF Note will terminate and be of no further force and effect
following the last Note Payment Date, or any date upon which the HRA has cancelled and
rescinded the TIF Development Agreement pursuant to Section 4.2 thereof, or on the date that all principal and interest has been paid in full, whichever occurs earliest. The HRA makes no representation or covenant, express or implied, that the Available Tax Increments will be sufficient to pay, in whole or in part, the amounts which are or may become due and payable hereunder.
The HRA’s payment obligations hereunder are further conditioned on the fact that no Event
of Default under the TIF Development Agreement (and the passing of any applicable cure periods) has occurred and is continuing at the time payment is otherwise due hereunder, but such unpaid amounts will become payable if said Event of Default is thereafter cured; and, further, if pursuant to the occurrence of an Event of Default under the TIF Development Agreement the HRA elects
to cancel and rescind the TIF Development Agreement, the HRA will have no further debt or
obligation under this TIF Note whatsoever. Reference is hereby made to all of the provisions of the TIF Development Agreement, including without limitation Section 3.3 thereof, for a fuller statement of the rights and obligations of the HRA to pay the principal of and interest on this TIF Note, and said provisions are hereby incorporated into this TIF Note as though set out in full herein;
provided, if there is any conflict between the terms of the TIF Development Agreement and the
terms of this TIF Note, the terms of this TIF Note will control.
This TIF Note is a special, limited revenue obligation and not a general obligation of the HRA and is payable by the HRA only from the sources and subject to the qualifications stated or referenced herein. This Note is not a general obligation of the Housing and Redevelopment in and
for the City of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, and neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing powers
of the City of Eden Prairie are pledged to the payment of the principal of and interest on this TIF Note and no property or other asset of the HRA, save and except the above-referenced Available Tax Increments, is or will be a source of payment of the HRA’s obligations hereunder.
This TIF Note is issued by the HRA in aid of financing a project pursuant to and in full conformity with the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota, including Minnesota Statutes,
Sections 469.174 through 469.1799.
This TIF Note may be assigned only with the consent of the HRA, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned. Consent of the HRA shall mean the consent of the Executive Director of the HRA, which consent must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Executive Director shall grant or deny requests for consent to assignment of the TIF Note in
accordance with objective criteria approved by the Board of the HRA. In order to assign the TIF
Note, the assignee must surrender the same to the HRA either in exchange for a new fully registered note or for transfer of this TIF Note on the registration records for the TIF Note maintained by the HRA. Each permitted assignee will take this TIF Note subject to the foregoing conditions and subject to all provisions stated or referenced herein.
IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED AND RECITED that all acts, conditions, and things required
by the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota to be done, to have happened, and to be performed precedent to and in the issuance of this TIF Note have been done, have happened, and have been performed in regular and due form, time, and manner as required by law; and that this TIF Note, together with all other indebtedness of the HRA outstanding on the date hereof and on
the date of its actual issuance and delivery, does not cause the indebtedness of the HRA to exceed
any constitutional or statutory limitation thereon.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, by its Board of Commissioners, has caused this TIF Note to be executed by the manual signatures of its Chair and Executive Director and has caused this Note to

FORM OF ASSESSMENT AGREEMENT
ASSESSMENT AGREEMENT
THIS ASSESMENT AGREEMENT is dated as of __________ , 2026 and is between the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, a public body corporate and
politic organized and existing under the laws of the State of Minnesota (the “HRA”), and Roers Eden Prairie Apartments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Owner”).
IN CONSIDERATION OF the mutual covenants and benefits herein described, the HRA and the Owner recite and agree as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
1.01. Project Plan. The HRA has heretofore developed a Redevelopment Plan (the “Project Plan”) outlining certain development activities to be undertaken and has adopted a Redevelopment Plan therefor (the “Redevelopment Plan”), which includes the construction of a residential rental building and related site improvements (the “Project”) to be constructed on real property legally described on Exhibit A
hereto (the “Land”). The Project is to be owned by the Owner.
1.02. Tax Increment Financing District. Pursuant to the Minnesota Tax Increment Financing Act, Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.174 to 469.1799, as amended (the “TIF Act”), the City and the HRA have approved a tax increment financing plan (the “Financing Plan”), which is the proposed method for financing the development activities currently proposed to be undertaken relating to the Project. Pursuant
to the Financing Plan, the Tax Increment Financing District Number 27 has been established as a housing
district under the TIF Act.
1.03. Implementation. The HRA and the City of Eden Prairie, Minnesota (the “City”), have each authorized and directed their respective officers to take all actions necessary to implement and carry out the Project Plan and the Financing Plan. The Project Plan and the Financing Plan propose that the HRA
finance certain costs of or related to the Project, payable from tax increment (as defined in the TIF Act)
derived from the District (“Tax Increment”).
1.04. TIF Development Agreement. The HRA and the Owner have entered into a Tax Increment Development Agreement dated ________________, 2026 (the “TIF Development Agreement”), which provides, among other things, that the Owner will improve the Land by the construction of the Project
thereon. Section 3.5 of the TIF Development Agreement provides that the HRA and Owner are to enter into
this Assessment Agreement contemporaneous with the TIF Development Agreement.
Section 2. Minimum Market Value.
2.01. Agreed Upon Minimum. The Owner agrees that the minimum market value of the Land and the Project for ad valorem tax purposes, for the assessment made as of January 2, 2029, will be
not less than $55,720,000 and will not be reduced by any action taken by the Owner (other than a deed in
lieu of, or under threat of, condemnation by the City of Eden Prairie, Hennepin County or other condemning authority), to less than the said minimum market value, and that during the term of this Assessment Agreement no reduction of the market value therefor below said minimum market value may be sought by the Owner or granted by any public official or court except in accordance with Minnesota Statutes,
Section 469.177, subdivision 8. This minimum market value will apply only to the Land, the Project, and
any other improvements situated on the Land. In the event of involuntary conversion of the Land and the
Project for any reason (other than condemnation by a public entity), the minimum market value will not be reduced to an amount less than said minimum market value
The Owner acknowledges and agrees that the Land and the Project are subject to ad valorem property taxation and that such property taxes constitute taxes on “real property” (as provided in
Section 469.174, subdivisions 4 and 7(d) of the TIF Act) and, to the extent reflecting net tax capacity rates
of taxing jurisdictions levied against the captured net tax capacity of the District, tax increment.
2.02. Higher Market Value. Nothing in this Assessment Agreement will limit the discretion of the City Assessor of the City of Eden Prairie or any other public official or body having the duty to determine the market value of the Land, the Project, and other facilities on the Land for ad valorem tax
purposes, to assign to the Land, the Project or to any other improvements constructed on the Land, on a
nondiscriminatory basis and treated fairly and equally with all other property so classified in the respective counties, a market value in excess of the minimum market value specified in Section 2.01.

COPY OF MINNESOTA STATUTES, SECTION 469.177, SUBDIVISION 8
Assessment agreements. An authority may enter into a written assessment agreement with any person establishing a minimum market value of land, existing improvements, or improvements to be constructed
in a district, if the property is owned or will be owned by the person. The minimum market value established
by an assessment agreement may be fixed, or increase or decrease in later years from the initial minimum market value. If an agreement is fully executed before July 1 of an assessment year, the market value as provided under the agreement must be used by the county or local assessor as the taxable market value of the property for that assessment. Agreements executed on or after July 1 of an assessment year become
effective for assessment purposes in the following assessment year. An assessment agreement terminates
on the earliest of the date on which conditions in the assessment agreement for termination are satisfied, the termination date specified in the agreement, or the date when tax increment is no longer paid to the authority under section 469.176, subdivision 1. The assessment agreement shall be presented to the county assessor, or city assessor having the powers of the county assessor, of the jurisdiction in which the tax increment
financing district and the property that is the subject of the agreement is located. The assessor shall review
the plans and specifications for the improvements to be constructed, review the market value previously assigned to the land upon which the improvements are to be constructed and, so long as the minimum market value contained in the assessment agreement appears, in the judgment of the assessor, to be a reasonable estimate, shall execute the following certification upon the agreement:
The undersigned assessor, being legally responsible for the assessment of the
above described property, certifies that the market values assigned to the land and improvements are reasonable.
The assessment agreement shall be filed for record and recorded in the office of the county recorder or the registrar of titles of each county where the real estate or any part thereof is situated. After the agreement
becomes effective for assessment purposes, the assessor shall value the property under section 273.11,
except that the market value assigned shall not be less than the minimum market value established by the assessment agreement. The assessor may assign a market value to the property in excess of the minimum market value established by the assessment agreement. The owner of the property may seek, through the exercise of administrative and legal remedies, a reduction in market value for property tax purposes, but no
city assessor, county assessor, county auditor, board of review, board of equalization, commissioner of
revenue, or court of this state shall grant a reduction of the market value below the minimum market value established by the assessment agreement during the term of the agreement filed of record regardless of actual market values which may result from incomplete construction of improvements, destruction, or diminution by any cause, insured or uninsured, except in the case of acquisition or reacquisition of the
property by a public entity. Recording an assessment agreement constitutes notice of the agreement to
anyone who acquires any interest in the land or improvements that is subject to the assessment agreement, and the agreement is binding upon them.
An assessment agreement may be modified or terminated by mutual consent of the current parties to the agreement. Modification or termination of an assessment agreement must be approved by the governing
body of the municipality. If the estimated market value for the property for the most recently available assessment is less than the minimum market value established by the assessment agreement for that or any later year and if bond counsel does not conclude that termination of the agreement is necessary to preserve the tax exempt status of outstanding bonds or refunding bonds to be issued, the modification or termination of the assessment agreement also must be approved by the governing bodies of the county and the school
district. A document modifying or terminating an agreement, including records of the municipality, county,
and school district approval, must be filed for record. The assessor’s review and certification is not required if the document terminates an agreement. A change to an agreement not fully executed before July 1 of an assessment year is not effective for assessment purposes for that assessment year. If an assessment agreement has been modified or prematurely terminated, a person may seek a reduction in market value or
tax through the exercise of any administrative or legal remedy. The remedy may not provide for reduction
of the market value below the minimum provided under a modified assessment agreement that remains in effect. In no event may a reduction be sought for a year other than the current taxes payable year.

WORKSHOP AGENDA
Heritage Rooms
1. Local Option Sales Tax Discussion
Getschow stated many neighboring cities have received approval for a Local Option Sales Tax
(LOST) for large projects. Today’s discussion will be focused on how a LOST works and what it
could mean for the City. Markle explained a LOST is a sales tax collected within the geographic
boundaries of a City or County. Hennepin County and many peer cities have one. It’s applied to
the same items as the general State sales tax. The State legislature authorizes the
implementation of the tax. During a general election residents will vote on individual projects to
fund. LOST funding can only be used for projects of regional significance such as parks,
community centers, and water quality improvements.
Markle explained the typical LOST rate is 0.5 percent for 20 years. Narayanan asked if the tax
rate reverts to zero after the 20 year period. Markle confirmed that is correct. Narayanan asked
if the City would have to apply to the State to implement the tax again. Markle confirmed that is
correct. Markle explained the LOST automatically ends once the funds for the project are
collected or the time period has ended, whichever occurs first.
Markle noted the legislature enacted the LOST in 2017 as a trade off for declining Local
Government Aid. A moratorium was placed on LOST in May 2023 to study the topic and make
recommendations. The moratorium has now expired, and Counties and Cities may now submit
requests for the next legislative session. Over 40 cities have a LOST or will be including it on the
ballot in 2026. Narayanan asked if LOST tends to be approved by voters. Markle confirmed most
projects tend to be approved by voters. LOST has funded projects like Bloomington’s community
center and ice garden remodel. Toomey asked if all projects are constructed at once. Markle
confirmed it is the City’s decision, often depending on if the City is waiting on other funding.
Bloomington is constructing all projects at once.
Case asked if Cities issue bonds for the project and then uses the LOST cash flow to pay the
bond proceeds back. Getschow confirmed that is a frequently used method, and there is no
impact to the tax levy. Markle detailed other City projects funded by LOST, including
Chanhassen’s community center project and an additional sheet of ice at Edina’s Braemar
Arena. Case noted an unfunded project with regional benefit would be the Highway 4 and 5
interchange. Toomey asked why the County or State isn’t funding the project. Ellis noted ideally
the County and State would fund it, but its not currently a priority for them.
Narayanan asked if multiple projects could be combined into one vote. Markle explained each
project would need to be considered on its own, such as one building or one park. For example,
a Miller Park renovation would count as one project, but it could include turf baseball fields, a
cricket pitch, an inclusive playground, and water quality improvements. Projects should be
designed to positively impact the most residents possible, ideally connecting with multiple
groups including seniors, youth, new families, etc. Case stated ideally LOST would be used to
help fund projects that would have otherwise been levied for.
Markle explained the need for data to help guide LOST decisions. Cities and Counties have hired
the University of Minnesota Extension to perform a LOST analysis to determine estimated sales
tax proceeds and understand what proportion of dollars would be paid by residents vs. non-
residents. During the analysis Cities and Counties determine priorities and vision for potential
LOST-funded projects and their regional significance. Other potential ballot measures are
considered, such as if the school district is introducing a referendum. Narayanan asked if LOST
could fund a project that already started, such as the police remodel. Markle confirmed LOST
can only fund future projects.
Markle detailed the 12 to 18 month statutory process to adopt LOST. The first step is the City
Council adopts a resolution proposing the tax. The resolution must include a tax rate and a
length, guided by the University of Minnesota Extension’s research, and documentation
supporting the project’s regional significance. The resolution and supporting materials are
submit to State tax committees. Once legislative authorization is granted, the City Council
adopts a Resolution accepting the new law. An education campaign is held to educate residents
on the tax and the proposed projects. The project must be on the ballot within two years of
receiving legislative authority. Once approved, an ordinance is passed to impose the tax.
Markle noted residents vote on each project individually. The City would need to educate voters
that passing only two projects out of four would only impact length of the tax, not the rate.
Markle added typically, all projects are passed. The City would notify the Commissioner of
Revenue 90 days before the first day of the calendar quarter the tax would be imposed.
Narayanan asked how much money would be invested in LOST before the tax would be
collected. Markle noted hiring the University of Minnesota Extension would be a few thousand
dollars. Narayanan asked if there was incremental overhead once LOST is collected. Getschow
confirmed there is not.
Getschow explained the importance of creating a timeline by working backwards from the
election year residents would vote on the LOST funded projects. As this workshop is only to
introduce LOST, projects have not yet been identified. Markle described needs commonly voiced
by residents, including an field house to play sports indoors during the winter and an
opportunity for outdoor aquatics. Narayanan asked for the dollar amount of total sales in the
City. Getschow stated that would be quantified by the University of Minnesota Extension.
Narayanan asked if there is an estimate of how much a LOST tax would raise. Getschow noted it
would likely be similar to the amounts noted in the Edina or Richfield studies. Getschow noted
projects in the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) all have a cost whether its debt, the CIP levy, or
transfers from other funds. If these projects were funded by LOST instead, there would be
savings to the levy.
Getschow noted similar projects within a short distance of each other cannot be pursued by
multiple cities. There is discussion on automatically preapproving certain projects such as parks
and trail systems, removing the regional benefit requirements, allowing LOST to support general
operations, and requiring revenue sharing between cities. These items being discussed will likely
not be decided for years. Getschow asked the Council Members to provide general feedback. A
decision does not need to be made tonight. Case stated the next logical step is hiring the
University of Minnesota Extension to perform a LOST analysis. The City could collect data, plan
for projects, and run a public education campaign before the 2028 general election. Case noted
his interest in pursuing projects that would have a direct decrease to the tax levy.
Freiberg asked how expensive it would be to hire the University of Minnesota Extension to
perform a LOST analysis. Markle estimated the cost at around $6 thousand. Toomey asked if the
City’s bond rating is affected by issuing bonds for projects that would be paid back with LOST
income. Getschow answered the debt and bond rating would not be affected by projects repaid
with LOST revenue to the extent of his knowledge. Narayanan noted his approval and his
interest in the numbers such as the expected revenue. The Council Members thanked staff for
their presentation.

A. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-113 certifying 2026 Property tax levy, adopting 2026
budget, and approving 2026 HRA tax levy
Getschow introduced Finance Manager Tammy Wilson to present this item. Wilson
explained the Council adopted a Resolution certifying the proposed 2026 City
budget and property tax levy on September 2, 2025. Calculations showed the
CITY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA
December 2, 2025
Page 3
budget to be $66,847,061 and the certified levy to be $52,844,814 before fiscal
disparities distribution. The net tax levy after fiscal disparities distribution of
($2,725,032) is $50,119,782.
Wilson said the 2026 proposed budget maintains City services with an increase of
6.6 percent of the general fund and a total budget increase of 6.5 percent, which
includes the debt service payments. The tax levy is budgeted to increase 5.6
percent.
Wilson noted that, according to State statute, the final levy amount must be
certified to the county auditor by December 29, 2025. City Council adoption of the
final levy and budget will complete this process.
Case asked if Wilson mentioned the budget had allocated funds for elections under
the Administration department. Wilson confirmed that she had.
Wilson showed images reflecting 2026 budget changes by category. Wilson
explained the total property tax levy summary, noting the general fund and capital
improvement fund increases.
Wilson showed images with information regarding the debt levy on tax capacity
and market value and explained both, noting a 20.6 percent budget increase from
2025 to 2026.
Wilson explained the City tax impacts and the 2026 estimated market value of the
City, which is $14.7 billion. She noted the total property tax impacts, including
differences between residential, apartment, and commercial. Wilson explained the
breakdown for the median value home’s property tax distribution between the
City, County, school district, and other jurisdictions. She explained the difference in
property tax distribution for commercial property between the City, county, state,
school district, and fiscal disparities. She noted the monthly cost of City services for
the general fund and debt service fund.
Getschow explained the 2026 and 2027 budget process and timeline, and shared
the Quality of Life survey results video. He shared images detailing the 2026 and
2027 budget goals, savings, efficiencies, and overall highlights.
Getschow presented an overview of monthly City Services by department within
the general fund and shared an image summarizing the total City budget. He
reviewed the proposed property tax impacts, including tax capacity, levy amount,
and rates, and referenced an article discussing the shifting tax burdens in the Twin
Cities resulting from declining commercial values and rising residential values.
Getschow shared a value notice from the City Assessor that explained the value
increases in property in Eden Prairie in 2025, and provided an image explaining the
CITY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA
December 2, 2025
Page 4
tax capacity by property class. He explained a sample property tax calculation and
the resulting tax rates for the median residential home.
Getschow reviewed the 2026 proposed tax levy, describing the impacts of levy
changes and comparing Eden Prairie’s levy position to other cities.
Case noted that adopting a zero-levy increase would require a $2.5 million budget
reduction. He noted that although a zero-increase levy might seem beneficial to
taxpayers, it would amount to only about seven dollars in monthly savings while
necessitating significant service and staffing cuts.
Getschow shared an image with the cumulative tax levy increases in comparable
cities from 2017 to 2026. He explained the City and state fiscal relationship, fiscal
disparities, and the tax base sharing program. He displayed information about the
homeowner’s Homestead Credit refund and explained how taxpayers could access
this aid.
Narayanan thanked Getschow and Wilson for their presentation and thorough
explanation of the tax levy.
David Ringsmuth, 13166 Beehive Court, thanked the Council for the presentation
and said a tax increase still hurts, especially with all the other State and County
taxes that are going up as well. He asked how Mayor Case came up with the
average of a seven-dollar difference if there was no tax-levy increase from the
presentation. Case responded that he derived that difference from information
that Getschow gave him, and that specific example was not in the presentation.
Maria Ringsmuth, 13166 Beehive Court, applauded the excellent presentation. She
noted that her tax bill has doubled since she moved to Eden Prairie in 2006, and
asked if the Council would consider making the tax increase optional for residents
who cannot afford to pay it. She continued that the City taxes would consume the
2.8 percent increase she would receive from Social Security. She noted that the
City could cut Department budgets without cutting positions and save money.
Larry Zieske, 18803 Magenta Bay, said Eden Prairie is the best place to live if a
resident can afford it. He noted that this assessment went up $110,600, and his
taxes went up 15.5 percent. Zieske’s tax increase for Eden Prairie Schools
increased 13 percent. The school district will be overfilled by 500 students next
year, which will require more funds. He said his increase in Social Security is only
2.8 percent, and he is being taxed out of his home. He noted that several of his
friends have moved out of the state due to the high taxes. He asked the Council to
look at all the fees and services that the City is paying for that could be eliminated.
He continued that it was addressed during the presentation, that the residents are
bearing the burden of revenue in their property taxes, and at some point, property
owners are going to have enough. He said wage increases across the board are not
CITY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA
December 2, 2025
Page 5
the norm in the private sector, and the City should look at controlling the budget
as best as possible, and wage increases for City Staff should not go beyond the
cost-of-living increase. He said the City does not need the platinum version of a
remodel for the Police Department, or any new building. He noted that while the
City Council is doing a good job, the citizens have to push for improvement and a
better tax rate.
Julie Baker, 8700 Braxton Drive, thanked the Council for the presentation and
described the financial strain she is facing as a single homeowner. She urged the
Council to find more creative ways to reduce taxes, questioned where tax dollars
are going, and expressed concern about the State's shift from a surplus to a deficit
in two years. She said she appreciates the addition of new firefighters, but asked if
fewer could be hired to ease the levy impact. She requested that the City adhere
to a stricter budget, avoid comparisons to other cities, and make deeper cuts so
residents can retain more of their income during these difficult economic times.
MOTION: Toomey moved, seconded by Narayanan, to close the Public Hearing.
Motion carried 5-0.
Case thanked the speakers for coming forward to address the Council. The Council
all struggled with this shift that has occurred in residential property taxes. The
Council has tried to make the property tax levy as low as possible, but there is a
complexity about state tax formulas and increases that are hard to process and
explain. A few of the Councilmembers are also on fixed incomes, so he
understands that struggle. The Council has to consider whether it is responsible to
drop services for 65,000 people who are the most impacted. While property taxes
have gone up, so has the market value of houses in the last 10 years. The City has
quality Staff and that is because the City pays them competitively.
Toomey agreed with Case and said the Council struggled deciding on a property
tax levy increase. The Police Department must be renovated as it is the same
location as when the department had 35 members, but there are now 73 officers.
It is one of the only Police Departments in the State that does not have indoor
parking. Having indoor parking will save money long term on vehicle maintenance.
The City is providing the best services with reasonable taxes.
Case noted the $26 million Police Department renovation has a small impact on
the levy, even though it’s a big number. Getschow added the Police Department
renovation has been planned for 10 years.
Case stated the City was able to get a lower bond rate due to its triple A bond
rating. The City has always budgeted conservatively, and that pays off then in
lower levies.

Nelson noted the triple-A bond rating also helps cut taxes. The City has wonderful
employees who have stuck with Eden Prairie for so long. If residents are on a fixed
income and cannot pay their taxes, they should investigate deferring their taxes
until next year. Nelson discussed the importance of maintaining City parks and
trails, so families can use them free of charge if they cannot afford to go on
vacation. Staff worked hard to get the lowest possible tax levy in the Twin Cities.
Narayanan acknowledged the tax levy is difficult to understand and noted that
budgeting is complex due to state-mandated tax formulas. The community survey
guided the Council’s decisions, and residents prioritized strong public safety, parks,
and services. Narayanan highlighted the need to adequately fund the Fire
Department for quick response time, and stated that the Council explored all
options to reduce the levy while still listening to residents’ concerns.
Case stated that the decision to add eight firefighters instead of six was not
arbitrary and came down to response times. Toomey added the cost of the
additional firefighters is funded by the SAFER grant. Case noted a smaller levy
increase would require severe budget cuts, which would be felt by residents.
Freiberg noted that the Council is listening to the residents. The Council takes the
tax levy very seriously and has many discussions before making this decision.
Opting out of property taxes would have to happen at a higher level of
government in cooperation with cities. Freiberg said he knows the hearts of the
other Councilmembers, and none of them want to see residents fall on hard times.
MOTION: Toomey moved, seconded by Narayanan, to adopt Resolution No. 2025-
113 certifying the 2026 property tax levy to be $52,884,814 and approve the 2026
budget of $66,847,061 as reviewed by the Council, and approve the HRA tax levy
and budget of $230,000. Motion carried 5-0.
Case thanked all of the speakers for coming forward and being respectful.
B. Approve first and second readings of Ordinance No. 19-2025, updating the 2026
fee schedule for the Administration of official controls, and adopt Resolution
approving the summary ordinance.
Getschow explained this Ordinance establishes a fee schedule for the City's costs
in administering official controls pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section
462.353, Subd. 4. Minnesota Statute allows a municipality to prescribe fees
sufficient to defray the costs incurred by it in reviewing, investigating, and
administering an application for an amendment to an official control or other
approval required under an official control. He explained that Minnesota Statute
defines an "official control" as Ordinances or regulations that control the
physical development of a city and implement the general objectives of the
comprehensive plan. Official controls may include ordinances establishing

zoning, subdivision controls, site plan regulations, sanitary codes, building codes,
and official maps.
Case stated if the public wants to look at all the City fees, which are competitive
with the area, that information is available via the City's website. He asked if
anyone wished to address the Council for the fee updates during the Public
Hearing. No one wished to address the Council.
MOTION: Narayanan moved, seconded by Nelson, to close the Public Hearing,
and approve the first and second readings of Ordinance No. 19-2025 updating
the fee schedule for Administration and official controls, and adopt Resolution
No. 2025-114 approving the summary for publication. Motion carried 5-0.
C. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-115 approving 2026 fees for City services
Getschow explained that this Resolution updates the fee schedule for the City’s
services not covered by Ordinance.
Case asked if anyone in the audience wished to address the Council regarding
this resolution and fees during the Public Hearing. No one wished to address the
Council.
MOTION: Nelson moved, seconded by Narayanan, to close the Public Hearing
and adopt the 2026 Fee Resolution No. 2025-115. Motion carried 5-0.
IX. Payment of Claims
MOTION: Toomey moved, seconded by Freiberg, to approve the payment of claims as
submitted. Motion was approved on a roll call vote, with Freiberg, Narayanan,
Nelson, Toomey, and Case voting "aye."

ITEM DESCRIPTION
This is the final approval necessary to redevelop the property at 6436 City West Parkway into a
195 unit apartment building. The existing 5 story office building will be demolished and
replaced with a 6 story apartment building with underground parking.
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to:
• Approve the Second Reading of an Ordinance for a PUD District Review with waivers on
5.86 acres and Zoning District change from Office to RM-2.5 on 5.86 acres; and
• Adopt a Resolution approving a Site Plan Review on 5.86 acres; and
• Adopt a resolution Conditionally Approving the Development Agreement for Roers Eden
Prairie Apartments
SUMMARY
This is the second reading for the Roers Eden Prairie Apartment project, which includes
demolishing the existing 5 story office building and replacing it with a 6 story, 195 unit
apartment building, underground and surface parking, trail connections, and other supporting
infrastructure. The 120 day review period has been extended and will expire on January 7th,
2026.
At the public hearing, the Council commented on the lack of ‘top’ on the building elevations
and advised the developer to adjust the elevations. The developer revised the elevations to
add a parapet along all facades. The parapet extends out from the wall plane, and will be
painted black, to match the color of the window frames and balcony railings. This parapet will
add visual interest and shadow along all elevations of the building and achieve the definition of
‘top’ as desired.
The development agreement includes provisions for the installation of a trail, connecting the
subject property to the City West Light Rail station north of the site.

and/or tree replacement plan on the Exhibit B Plans (the “Landscape Security”). The Landscape Security will be held for two full growing seasons after the installation of all plantings and inspection by the City. A growing season is the part of the year during which rainfall and temperature allow plants to grow (approximately April-October).
The installation must conform to the approved landscape or tree replacement plan including but not limited to the size, species and location as depicted on the Exhibit B Plans. Any changes proposed to the landscape plan or landscaping installed on the Property, including but not limited to removal and relocation, must be reviewed and approved by the City
Planner prior to implementing such changes. Developer must complete implementation of
the approved landscape or tree replacement plan as depicted on the Exhibit B Plans and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Exhibit C of this Agreement. The Landscape Security will be released in accordance with the terms of the landscape agreement.

mechanical equipment screening prior to issuance of any occupancy permit for the Property. If, after completion of construction of the mechanical equipment screening, it is determined
by the City Planner, in his or her sole discretion, that the constructed screening does not
meet City Code requirements to screen mechanical equipment from public streets and differing, adjacent land uses, then the City Planner will notify Developer and Developer must take corrective action to reconstruct the mechanical equipment screening in order to cure the deficiencies identified by the City Planner. Developer agrees that the City will not
release the Landscape Security until Developer completes all such corrective measures.
13. MORTGAGEE CONSENT AND SUBORDINATION: For any mortgage lien recorded against the Property prior to recording this Agreement, Developer must deliver to the City a mortgagee consent and subordination in a form approved by the City and attach the
executed form to the Agreement submitted for recording.

Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Metropolitan Council Environmental Services, Nine Mile Creek Watershed District, the Minnesota Department of Health, the Minnesota Department of Transportation, Hennepin County.
The City Planner may determine that conditions of approval required by the Nine Mile
Creek Watershed District require changes to the City approvals granted with this Agreement which may entail additional City review, including public hearing(s) for recommendation by the Planning Commission and approval by the City Council. Developer consents to such additional review as determined by the City Planner and agrees
to an extension pursuant to Minn. Stat. Section 15.99 of an additional 60 days for the

Affordable and Inclusionary Units as follows will constitute a default under this Agreement
subject to all the rights and remedies of the City as provided in this Agreement. Developer’s
11
Roers Eden Prairie Development Agreement
obligations as to Affordable and Inclusionary Units are as follows (capitalized terms and section and exhibit references in the following paragraphs of this paragraph 26 are as used
in the TIF Agreement, and to the extent that the following paragraphs are inconsistent with
the TIF Agreement, the TIF Agreement shall control): (1) (A) Affordable Units. At least thirty-nine (39) of the residential units in
the Project must be Affordable Units and must be occupied or available for
occupancy by persons whose incomes do not exceed 50% of AMI. The Affordable Units must include 20 one-bedroom units, 16 two-bedroom units, and 3 three-bedroom units. The obligation of Developer to provide the Affordable Units will survive and remain in full force and effect through the TIF District Termination
Date.
(B) Inclusionary Units. For so long as the Development Property is used for a residential rental project, a minimum of ten (10) units in the Project must remain affordable in perpetuity as Inclusionary Units to households whose annual
income is at 80% or less of AMI. The Inclusionary Units must include 5 one-
bedroom units, 4 two-bedroom units, and 1 three-bedroom unit. The Inclusionary Units are subject, including rents and incomes, to review and approval by the City in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Inclusionary Units are further subject to the requirements of Eden Prairie City Code § 13.03. The obligation of
Developer to provide Inclusionary Units as set forth in this Agreement, including
in this Section 3.4(1)(B), will survive and remain in full force and effect after expiration, cancellation, termination, or rescission of this Agreement pursuant to its terms or by either party.
(C) Rent Restrictions. For so long as Developer is obligated to provide
such units under this Agreement, Developer must restrict gross rents and incomes in the Project for the Affordable Units and the Inclusionary Units to amounts not exceeding the Multifamily Rent and Income Limits set by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and promulgated by the
Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (“MHFA”) (or, if MHFA no longer
promulgates such data, then by a similar resource that promulgates the HUD data), as adjusted for family size, as the same may be updated from time-to-time. Attached hereto as Exhibit D are the Multifamily Rent and Income Limits in effect as of the date of this Agreement. Fees and charges for services or amenities in excess of base
rent shall be included in the maximum gross rent if payment of such fees or charges
is required as a condition of occupancy, in accordance with the Tax Increment Act, Section 142(d) of the Internal Revenue Code, and Treasury Regulation 26 C.F.R. § 1.42-11. If the cost of any utility (other than telephone, cable television, or internet) for an Affordable Unit or Inclusionary Unit is paid directly by the tenant(s), and not
by or through Developer, the gross rent for that unit includes the applicable utility
allowance determined in accordance with 26 C.F.R. 1.42-10. If the costs of a
12
Roers Eden Prairie Development Agreement
particular utility are paid pursuant to an actual-consumption submetering arrangement within the meaning of that section, then that cost is treated as paid
directly by the tenant and not by or through the owner. If all utilities are paid by the
owner, there is no utility allowance and the costs of utilities shall be included in gross rent. (D) Income Increase. Developer shall comply with the requirements of
26 U.S.C. § 142(d)(3) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, as the same may
be amended from time to time, with respect to income increase of a tenant during the term of the tenancy. (2) The obligations of Section 3.4(1)(A), (B), and (C) will not terminate but
will remain in full force and effect in the event of an Event of Default under Section 4.1.

such sixty (60) day cure period will constitute a default by Developer.
(4) Reporting Requirements – Inclusionary Units. (A) Compliance Certificate. On or before each January 1 of each year,
commencing on January 1, 2029 the Developer or an agent of the Developer must
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Executive Director an Inclusionary Unit Compliance Certificate in substantially the form shown on Exhibit G attached hereto, executed by the Developer covering the preceding twelve (12) months together with written evidence satisfactory to the Executive Director of compliance

Inclusionary Unit, the rent for a comparable market rate unit. The Executive
Director will review the Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll and will approve any proposed
14
Roers Eden Prairie Development Agreement
Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll, provided such rents are not in excess of the rent limits in Section 3.4(1)(C). Any Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll submitted by the Developer
will be considered approved unless disapproved by the Executive Director within
sixty (60) days after submission. The Executive Director must provide written reasons if any Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll is disapproved. The Developer will have sixty (60) days following receipt of any notice of disapproval to cure any objections the Executive Director has made in its notice of disapproval and to submit a revised
Inclusionary Unit Rent Roll to the Executive Director for review and approval as

13. This Agreement will run with the land and be binding upon and enforceable against the Property and the Owners, their successors and assigns of the Property.
14. This Agreement is a contract between the City and the Developer and their successors and
assigns. No provision of this Agreement inures to the benefit of any third person, including
the public at large, so as to constitute any person as a third-party beneficiary of the Agreement or of any one or more of its terms, or otherwise give rise to any cause of action for any person not a party to this Agreement.
15. Developer acknowledges that the obligations of Developer contemplated in this Agreement
are special, unique, and of an extraordinary character, and that, in the event that Developer
violates, or fails, or refuses to perform any covenant, condition, or provision of this Agreement, City may be without an adequate remedy at law. Developer agrees, therefore, that in the event Developer violates, fails, or refuses to perform any covenant, condition, or provision made herein, City may, at its option, institute and prosecute an action to
specifically enforce such covenant, withhold permits or other City approvals, or rescind or
revoke any approvals granted by the City. No remedy conferred in this Agreement is intended to be exclusive and each will be cumulative and will be in addition to every other remedy. The election of anyone or more remedies will not constitute a waiver of any other remedy.
16. No failure of the City to comply with any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement
will subject the City to liability for any claim for damages, costs or other financial or pecuniary charges. No execution on any claim, demand, cause of action or judgment may be levied upon or collected from the general credit, general fund or taxing powers of the City.

completion in whole or part of the Developer’s obligations under this Agreement for which
a bond, letter of credit, cash deposit or other security (“Security”) is required if the Developer defaults with respect to any term or condition in this Agreement for which Security is required and fails to cure such default(s) within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice thereof from the City; provided however if the nature of the cure is such that
it is not possible to complete the cure within ten (10) days, it will be sufficient if the
Developer has initiated and is diligently pursuing such cure. The Developer acknowledges that the City does not assume any obligations or duties of the Developer with respect to any contracts or agreements with third parties relating to the improvements unless otherwise agreed in writing by the City.
The City may draw down on or make a claim against the Security, as appropriate, upon
five (5) business days notice to the Developer, for any violation of the terms of this Agreement or if the Security lapses prior to the end of the required term. If the obligations for which Security is required are not completed at least thirty (30) days
prior to the expiration of the Security and if the Security has not been renewed, replaced or
otherwise extended beyond the expiration date, the City may also draw down or make a claim against the Security as appropriate. If the City draws down or makes a claim against the Security, the proceeds will be used to cure the default(s) and to reimburse the City for all costs and expenses, including attorney fees, incurred by the City in enforcing this
Agreement with respect to any term or obligation for which a Security is required.

employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, complaints, loss, costs (including attorneys’ fees), damages and injunctions relating to any acts, failures

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT FOR
PRIVATE STORMWATER FACILITIES
This Inspection and Maintenance Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and entered into this ____
day of , of the year, 20___, by and between Roers Eden Prairie Apartments LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company, its successors and assigns (hereinafter called the “Owner”,
whether one or more) and the City of Eden Prairie, a Minnesota municipal corporation (hereinafter
called “City”).
WITNESSETH, that
WHEREAS, the City is required by federal and state surface water quality regulations and its
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer
System (MS4) permit to prevent surface water quality degradation from development and
redevelopment activities within its jurisdiction;
WHEREAS, the City has adopted stormwater regulations as required by the MS4 permit and such
regulations are contained in Section 11.55 of the Eden Prairie City Code;
WHEREAS, a structural stormwater Best Management Practice (BMP) is defined in the MS4
General Permit as "a stationary and permanent BMP that is designed, constructed and operated to
prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants in stormwater.” These may include, but are not
limited to green roofs, permeable pavement, bioretention basins, rain gardens, infiltration basins,
sand filters, stormwater ponds, manufactured treatment devices, and structures that perform
chemical treatment of stormwater;
WHEREAS, “structural stormwater BMPs” are called “stormwater facilities” in Section 11.55,
Subd. 2 of Eden Prairie City Code;
WHEREAS, the Owner is the fee owner of real property located at _____________(property
address and/or PID)_____________________ and legally described on the attached Exhibit A
(“Property”);
WHEREAS, the Owner has constructed or will construct certain stormwater facilities on the
Property that have been approved by the City in accordance with City Code;
31
Roers Eden Prairie Development Agreement
WHEREAS, some or all of the stormwater facilities on the Property serve private property and are
not owned, operated or maintained by the City (“Private BMPs”). A drawing showing the general
area of Private BMPs is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B for ease of identification;
WHEREAS the City’s MS4 Permit requires the City to have an executed legal mechanism for the
inspection and maintenance of Private BMPs.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the benefits received by the Owner as a result of the
approval by the City, the Owner does hereby covenant and agree with the City as follows:
1. The Owner will provide long-term maintenance and continuation of the Private BMPs
identified in Exhibit B, to ensure that all Private BMPs are and remain in proper working
condition in accordance with the original design specifications. The Owner must perform
inspection and maintenance activities utilizing the checklists provided in Exhibit C (or
similar, approved in advance by City staff), as well as the recommendations set forth in the
Minnesota Stormwater Manual.
2. Following final acceptance of the construction by the City, the Owner must maintain a copy
of this Agreement on site, together with a record of all inspections and maintenance actions
required by this Agreement. The Owner must document the inspections, remedial actions
taken to repair, modify or reconstruct the system, the state of the Private BMPs, and notify
the City Engineer of any planned change in ownership or management of the system.
3. All Private BMPs must undergo, at a minimum, one (1) inspection annually for two (2)
years after completion and final acceptance of the construction. After two (2) annual
inspections are approved by the City in writing, all private BMPs must undergo, at a
minimum, one (1) inspection every five (5) years to document maintenance and repair needs
and ensure compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and all federal, state and
local regulations. An inspection report for each inspection must be filed with the City
through its website within ninety (90) days of the inspection. The inspection frequency may
be increased as deemed necessary by the City to ensure proper functioning of the Private
BMPs.
4. If the City’s NPDES permit is revised in a way that directs the City to manage stormwater
treatment systems differently than specified in this agreement, the direction of the NPDES
permit will supersede and override the provisions of this Agreement.
5. The Owner hereby grants permission to the City, its authorized agents, contractors, and
employees the right of ingress, egress and access to enter the Property at reasonable times
and in a reasonable manner for the purpose of inspecting Private BMPs. The Owner hereby
32
Roers Eden Prairie Development Agreement
grants to the City the right to enter the Property to install and maintain equipment to monitor
or test the performance of the Private BMPs for quality and quantity upon reasonable notice
to the Owner. Whenever possible, the City will notify the Owner prior to entering the
Property and will use its best efforts not to disturb the Owner’s use and enjoyment of the
Property while conducting such inspections.
6. In the event the City determines that the Private BMPs are not being maintained in good
working order, the City will give written notice to the Owner to repair, replace, reconstruct
or maintain the Private BMPs within a reasonable time, not to exceed 30 days. If the Owner
fails to comply with the City’s notice within the time specified, Owner authorizes the City
or its agents to enter the Property to repair, reconstruct, replace or perform maintenance on
the Private BMPs at the Owner’s expense. It is expressly understood and agreed that the
City is under no obligation to maintain or repair any Private BMPs, and in no event will this
Agreement be construed to impose any such obligation on the City.
7. In the event the City, pursuant to this Agreement, performs work of any nature on Private
BMPs on the Property, or expends any funds in the performance of said work for labor, use
equipment, supplies, materials, and the like, the Owner will reimburse the City upon
demand, within thirty (30) days of receipt of written request for reimbursement for all costs
incurred by the City. If the City has not received payment from the Owner by the end of the
thirty (30) day period, the City may use any other remedies available by law to collect the
amount due from the Owner, and may also recover and collect from Owner the reasonable
expenses of collection, including court costs, and attorney fees.
8. It is the intent of this Agreement to assure the City of proper maintenance of Private BMPs
on the Property by the Owner; provided, however, that this Agreement will not be deemed
to create or affect any additional liability of any party for damage alleged to result from or
be caused by the Private BMPs or stormwater management practices on the Property.
9. The Owner and the Owner’s heirs, executors, administrators, assigns, and any other
successors in interest, will indemnify and hold the City and its agents and employees
harmless for, and defend against at its own expense, any and all damages, accidents,
casualties, occurrence, claims, and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, which
might arise or be asserted, in whole or in part, against the City from the construction,
presence, existence, or maintenance of the Private BMPs subject to this Agreement. In the
event a claim is asserted against the City, its officers, agents or employees, the City will
notify the Owner, who must defend at Owner’s expense any suit or other claim against the
City with counsel acceptable to the City.
10. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will affect the right of any party to enforce
such provision or to exercise any right or remedy available to it in the event of another
33
Roers Eden Prairie Development Agreement
party’s default.
11. The Owner must record this Agreement with the Hennepin County Recorder and/or
Registrar of Titles’ Office, as appropriate. This Agreement constitutes a covenant running
with the land and will be binding upon the Owner and the Owner’s heirs, administrators,
executors, assigns, and any other successors in interest to the Property.
12. The Owner must have the Private BMPs inspected in accordance with Section 11.55 of City
Code and certify to the City that the constructed facilities conform to the approved
stormwater management plan for the Property. If the constructed condition of the Private
BMP or its performance varies significantly from the approved plan, appropriately revised
calculations must be provided to the City and the plan must be amended accordingly.
13. The Owner agrees that for any Private BMPs to be maintained by a property owner’s
association, deed restrictions and covenants for property included in the association will: (a)
include mandatory membership in the property owner’s association responsible for
providing maintenance of the Private BMPs; (b) require the association to maintain the
private BMPs; (c) prohibit termination of this maintenance responsibility by unilateral action
of the association; and (d) provide for unpaid dues or assessments to constitute a lien upon
the property of individual owners within the association upon recording a notice of non-
payment.
14. This Agreement must be re-approved and re-executed by the City if all or a portion of the
Property is subdivided or assembled with other property or if Private BMPs or their drainage
areas are modified, causing decreased effectiveness. New, repaired, or improved Private
BMPs must be implemented to provide equivalent or better treatment when compared with
the original structural stormwater BMPs.
15. The Owner must sweep all private streets, driveways, drive aisles, and parking areas within
the Property at least once each year, either in the spring following snowmelt or in the fall
after leaf fall.
16. The Owner must submit inspection and maintenance records for each Private BMP to the
City's Water Resources Coordinator through the City’s website at the frequency required in
this Agreement. The Owner may use the inspection and maintenance checklists found in
Exhibit C, or similar documentation as approved by the City.
17. The City may seek any remedy in law or equity against the Owner for a violation of this
Agreement.
18. In the event that this Agreement is inconsistent with Eden Prairie City Code regarding the
inspection and maintenance of Private BMPs, the provisions which provide greater
protection for water resources, as determined by the City in its sole discretion, will prevail.

months of the date hereof, Developer, for itself, its successors, and assigns, will not oppose the City’s reconsideration and rescission of any Rezoning, Planned Unit Development review, Site Plan review and/or Guide Plan review approved in connection with this Agreement, thus restoring the status of the Property before the Development Agreement
and all approvals listed above were approved.
13. This Agreement will run with the land and be binding upon and enforceable against the Property and the Owners, their successors and assigns of the Property.
14. This Agreement is a contract between the City and the Developer. No provision of this Agreement inures to the benefit of any third person, including the public at large, so as to
constitute any person as a third-party beneficiary of the Agreement or of any one or more
of its terms, or otherwise give rise to any cause of action for any person not a party to this Agreement.
15. Developer acknowledges that the obligations of Developer contemplated in this Agreement are special, unique, and of an extraordinary character, and that, in the event that Developer
violates, or fails, or refuses to perform any covenant, condition, or provision of this
Agreement, City may be without an adequate remedy at law. Developer agrees, therefore, that in the event Developer violates, fails, or refuses to perform any covenant, condition, or provision made herein, City may, at its option, institute and prosecute an action to specifically enforce such covenant, withhold permits or other City approvals, or rescind or
revoke any approvals granted by the City. No remedy conferred in this Agreement is
intended to be exclusive and each will be cumulative and will be in addition to every other remedy. The election of anyone or more remedies will not constitute a waiver of any other remedy.
16. No failure of the City to comply with any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement
will subject the City to liability for any claim for damages, costs or other financial or
pecuniary charges. No execution on any claim, demand, cause of action or judgment may be levied upon or collected from the general credit, general fund or taxing powers of the City.
17. The Developer hereby irrevocably nominates, constitutes, and appoints and designates the
City as its attorney-in-fact for the sole purpose and right to amend Exhibit A hereto to
identify the legal description of the Property after platting thereof.

with the Applications. These costs include internal City administrative, planning and, engineering costs and consulting costs, including but not limited to legal, engineering,
planning and financial, in review, investigation, administering and processing the
Applications and implementation of the approvals granted by the City.
20. The City is hereby granted the option, but not the obligation, to complete or cause completion in whole or part of the Developer’s obligations under this Agreement for which a bond, letter of credit, cash deposit or other security ( “Security”) is required if the
Developer defaults with respect to any term or condition in this Agreement for which
Security is required and fails to cure such default(s) within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice thereof from the City; provided however if the nature of the cure is such that it is not possible to complete the cure within ten (10) days, it will be sufficient if the Developer has initiated and is diligently pursuing such cure. The Developer acknowledges
that the City does not assume any obligations or duties of the Developer with respect to
any contracts or agreements with third parties relating to the improvements unless otherwise agreed in writing by the City.
The City may draw down on or make a claim against the Security, as appropriate, upon five (5) business days notice to the Developer, for any violation of the terms of this
Agreement or if the Security lapses prior to the end of the required term.
If the obligations for which Security is required are not completed at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Security and if the Security has not been renewed, replaced or otherwise extended beyond the expiration date, the City may also draw down or make a
claim against the Security as appropriate. If the City draws down or makes a claim against
the Security, the proceeds will be used to cure the default(s) and to reimburse the City for all costs and expenses, including attorney fees, incurred by the City in enforcing this Agreement.
21. In the event of a violation of City Code relating to use of the Property and construction
thereon or failure to fulfill an obligation imposed upon the Developer pursuant to this
Agreement, City will give 24 hours’ notice of such violation, or such longer period as determined by the City in its sole discretion given the nature of the violation, in order to allow a cure of such violation. The City need not issue a building or occupancy permit for construction or occupancy on the Property while such a violation is continuing.
The existence of a violation of City Code or the failure to perform or fulfill an obligation
required by this Agreement will be determined solely and conclusively by the City Manager or his or her designee.
22. Developer will release, defend, and indemnify City, its elected and appointed officials, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, complaints,
loss, costs (including attorneys’ fees), damages and injunctions relating to any acts, failures
to act, errors, omissions of Developer or Developer's consultants, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and agents. Developer will not be released from its
Valley View Development Agreement January 6, 2026
responsibilities to release, defend, and indemnify because of any inspection, review, or approval by City.
23. Developer acknowledges that Developer is familiar with the requirements of Chapter 11,
Zoning, and Chapter 12, Subdivision Regulations, of the City Code and other applicable City ordinances affecting the development of the Property. Developer agrees to develop the Property in accordance with the requirements of all applicable City Code requirements and City Ordinances.
24. Developer agrees that the Property will be operated in a manner meeting all applicable
noise, vibration, dust and dirt, smoke, odor and glare laws and regulations.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT FOR
PRIVATE STORMWATER FACILITIES
This Inspection and Maintenance Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and entered into this ____
day of , of the year, 20___, by and between CSM RI Eden Prairie II, LLC, a Minnesota
limited liability company, its successors and assigns (hereinafter called the “Owner”, whether one
or more) and the City of Eden Prairie, a Minnesota municipal corporation (hereinafter called
“City”).
WITNESSETH, that
WHEREAS, the City is required by federal and state surface water quality regulations and its
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer
System (MS4) permit to prevent surface water quality degradation from development and
redevelopment activities within its jurisdiction;
WHEREAS, the City has adopted stormwater regulations as required by the MS4 permit and such
regulations are contained in Section 11.55 of the Eden Prairie City Code;
WHEREAS, a structural stormwater Best Management Practice (BMP) is defined in the MS4
General Permit as "a stationary and permanent BMP that is designed, constructed and operated to
prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants in stormwater.” These may include, but are not
limited to green roofs, permeable pavement, bioretention basins, rain gardens, infiltration basins,
sand filters, stormwater ponds, manufactured treatment devices, and structures that perform
chemical treatment of stormwater;
WHEREAS, “structural stormwater BMPs” are called “stormwater facilities” in Section 11.55,
Subd. 2 of Eden Prairie City Code;
WHEREAS, the Owner is the fee owner of real property located at 11902 Valley View Rd, Eden
Prairie, MN 55344 and legally described on the attached Exhibit A (“Property”);
WHEREAS, the Owner has constructed or will construct certain stormwater facilities on the
Valley View Development Agreement January 6, 2026
Property that have been approved by the City in accordance with City Code;
WHEREAS, some or all of the stormwater facilities on the Property serve private property and are
not owned, operated or maintained by the City (“Private BMPs”). A drawing showing the general
area of Private BMPs is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B for ease of identification;
WHEREAS the City’s MS4 Permit requires the City to have an executed legal mechanism for the
inspection and maintenance of Private BMPs.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the benefits received by the Owner as a result of the
approval by the City, the Owner does hereby covenant and agree with the City as follows:
1. The Owner will provide long-term maintenance and continuation of the Private BMPs
identified in Exhibit B, to ensure that all Private BMPs are and remain in proper working
condition in accordance with the original design specifications. The Owner must perform
inspection and maintenance activities utilizing the checklists provided in Exhibit C (or
similar, approved in advance by City staff), as well as the recommendations set forth in the
Minnesota Stormwater Manual.
2. Following final acceptance of the construction by the City, the Owner must maintain a copy
of this Agreement on site, together with a record of all inspections and maintenance actions
required by this Agreement. The Owner must document the inspections, remedial actions
taken to repair, modify or reconstruct the system, the state of the Private BMPs, and notify
the City of any planned change in ownership or management of the system.
3. All Private BMPs must undergo, at a minimum, one (1) inspection annually for two (2)
years after completion and final acceptance of the construction. After two (2) annual
inspections are approved by the City in writing, all private BMPs must undergo, at a
minimum, one (1) inspection every five (5) years to document maintenance and repair needs
and ensure compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and all federal, state and
local regulations. An inspection report for each inspection must be filed with the City
through its website within ninety (90) days of the inspection. The inspection frequency may
be increased as deemed necessary by the City to ensure proper functioning of the Private
BMPs.
4. If the City’s NPDES permit is revised in a way that directs the City to manage stormwater
treatment systems differently than specified in this agreement, the direction of the NPDES
permit will supersede and override the provisions of this Agreement.
5. The Owner hereby grants permission to the City, its authorized agents, contractors, and
employees the right of ingress, egress and access to enter the Property at reasonable times
Valley View Development Agreement January 6, 2026
and in a reasonable manner for the purpose of inspecting Private BMPs. The Owner hereby
grants to the City the right to enter the Property to install and maintain equipment to monitor
or test the performance of the Private BMPs for quality and quantity upon reasonable notice
to the Owner. Whenever possible, the City will notify the Owner prior to entering the
Property and will use its best efforts not to disturb the Owner’s use and enjoyment of the
Property while conducting such inspections.
6. In the event the City determines that the Private BMPs are not being maintained in good
working order, the City will give written notice to the Owner to repair, replace, reconstruct
or maintain the Private BMPs within a reasonable time, not to exceed 30 days. If the Owner
fails to comply with the City’s notice within the time specified, Owner authorizes the City
or its agents to enter the Property to repair, reconstruct, replace or perform maintenance on
the Private BMPs at the Owner’s expense. It is expressly understood and agreed that the
City is under no obligation to maintain or repair any Private BMPs, and in no event will this
Agreement be construed to impose any such obligation on the City.
7. In the event the City, pursuant to this Agreement, performs work of any nature on Private
BMPs on the Property, or expends any funds in the performance of said work for labor, use
equipment, supplies, materials, and the like, the Owner will reimburse the City upon
demand, within thirty (30) days of receipt of written request for reimbursement for all costs
incurred by the City. If the City has not received payment from the Owner by the end of the
thirty (30) day period, the City may use any other remedies available by law to collect the
amount due from the Owner, and may also recover and collect from Owner the reasonable
expenses of collection, including court costs, and attorney fees.
8. It is the intent of this Agreement to assure the City of proper maintenance of Private BMPs
on the Property by the Owner; provided, however, that this Agreement will not be deemed
to create or affect any additional liability of any party for damage alleged to result from or
be caused by the Private BMPs or stormwater management practices on the Property.
9. The Owner and the Owner’s heirs, executors, administrators, assigns, and any other
successors in interest, will indemnify and hold the City and its agents and employees
harmless for, and defend against at its own expense, any and all damages, accidents,
casualties, occurrence, claims, and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, which
might arise or be asserted, in whole or in part, against the City from the construction,
presence, existence, or maintenance of the Private BMPs subject to this Agreement. In the
event a claim is asserted against the City, its officers, agents or employees, the City will
notify the Owner, who must defend at Owner’s expense any suit or other claim against the
City with counsel acceptable to the City.
10. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will affect the right of any party to enforce
Valley View Development Agreement January 6, 2026
such provision or to exercise any right or remedy available to it in the event of another
party’s default.
11. The Owner must record this Agreement with the Hennepin County Recorder and/or
Registrar of Titles’ Office, as appropriate. This Agreement constitutes a covenant running
with the land and will be binding upon the Owner and the Owner’s heirs, administrators,
executors, assigns, and any other successors in interest to the Property.
12. The Owner must have the Private BMPs inspected in accordance with Section 11.55 of City
Code and certify to the City that the constructed facilities conform to the approved
stormwater management plan for the Property. If the constructed condition of the Private
BMP or its performance varies significantly from the approved plan, appropriately revised
calculations must be provided to the City and the plan must be amended accordingly.
13. The Owner agrees that for any Private BMPs to be maintained by a property owner’s
association, deed restrictions and covenants for property included in the association will: (a)
include mandatory membership in the property owner’s association responsible for
providing maintenance of the Private BMPs; (b) require the association to maintain the
private BMPs; (c) prohibit termination of this maintenance responsibility by unilateral action
of the association; and (d) provide for unpaid dues or assessments to constitute a lien upon
the property of individual owners within the association upon recording a notice of non-
payment.
14. This Agreement must be re-approved and re-executed by the City if all or a portion of the
Property is subdivided or assembled with other property or if Private BMPs or their drainage
areas are modified, causing decreased effectiveness. New, repaired, or improved Private
BMPs must be implemented to provide equivalent or better treatment when compared with
the original structural stormwater BMPs.
15. The Owner must sweep all private streets, driveways, drive aisles, and parking areas within
the Property at least once each year, either in the spring following snowmelt or in the fall
after leaf fall.
16. The Owner must submit inspection and maintenance records for each Private BMP to the
City's Water Resources Coordinator through the City’s website at the frequency required in
this Agreement. The Owner may use the inspection and maintenance checklists found in
Exhibit C, or similar documentation as approved by the City.
17. The City may seek any remedy in law or equity against the Owner for a violation of this
Agreement.
18. In the event that this Agreement is inconsistent with Eden Prairie City Code regarding the
inspection and maintenance of Private BMPs, the provisions which provide greater
Valley View Development Agreement January 6, 2026
protection for water resources, as determined by the City in its sole discretion, will prevail.
19. The recitals set forth above are expressly incorporated herein.

ITEM DESCRIPTION
Roers Apartments is requesting Tax Increment Financing (TIF) for Roers Eden Prairie
Apartments located at 6436 City West Parkway. Roers Apartments is a 195 unit mixed-income
apartment project that meets the criteria for a new Housing TIF District. The project will be
developed in one phase.
The project proposes to include 20% of the units (39 units) affordable to residents earning at or
below 50% of the Area Median Income (AMI). An additional 5% of the units (10 units) will be
inclusionary housing units as required by City Code and will be affordable to residents earning
at or below 80% of AMI. The remaining 146 units will be market rate.
This request necessitates a Redevelopment Plan modification, creation of a new TIF District No.
27, and a TIF Plan for Roers Apartments. The TIF Plan for TIF District No. 27 is the City’s planning
document for the district. It spells out the objectives and policies for the district, identifies the
geographic boundaries, and sets the maximum budgetary authority for the district. This
planning document simply allows for the creation of a new TIF district. Approval of the TIF Plan
does not grant any specific TIF assistance to the property owner. Assistance is granted through
a separate TIF agreement between the HRA and the developer.
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to:
• Adopt Resolution Adopting a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for
Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 and establishing Tax Increment Financing District No.
27: Roers Eden Prairie Apartments, adopt a Tax Increment Financing Plan therefor
SUMMARY
TIF District No. 27 is being established as a Housing TIF District. The site qualifies as a Housing
TIF District because the project will meet the income requirements outlined above. The TIF Plan
sets up the district for a maximum duration of 26 years.
The maximum budgetary authority in the district is approximately $20.73 million. This is a
maximum budget intended to provide flexibility. It provides for the TIF district to run for the full
26 years. The actual assistance to the property owner is anticipated to be a present value of
$4.9 million. Total payments, which include interest paid, are projected to be $9.5 million.
Current estimates show that the amount can be repaid within 21 years. The TIF Plan assumes
pay-as-you-go assistance to the developer. Pay-as-you-go TIF requires the developer to seek its
own financing secured by all or a portion of the tax increments generated by the project. In this
scenario, the City and HRA do not provide the funding up front, but enter into an agreement to
provide tax increments from the increased taxes from the project up to a specific dollar amount
over time. If tax increment is not enough to repay the developer, the City does not make up the
difference.
The TIF Plan also includes a 10% allowance for City administrative costs. The City can use this
10% to pay for any ongoing costs associated with administering the project in the TIF District.
The City Council held a public hearing on the TIF proposal on October 21, 2025. Staff and the
developer have come to terms on the Tax Increment Financing Development Agreement that
lays out the expected distribution of increment, determines the type and number of affordable
units by bedroom size, characterizes responsibilities going forward and includes construction
and costs of a trail connecting the project to the City West LRT station.
Proposed Financing and General Terms:
Housing TIF: Roers is requesting new Housing TIF District financing for Roers Eden Prairie
Apartments. The original request was for $5,070,000 of new TIF in the form of pay-as-you-go
over 26 years. Ehlers Public Finance (our TIF consultants) and staff have reviewed Roers
application. We have determined that the proposal meets the “but for test” for TIF District
financing. However, the development does not require the requested amount of TIF to
generate reasonable profits. Therefore, Ehlers and staff recommends a total of $4.9 million of
present value TIF paid over 21 years. The required affordability will continue for a total of 26
years, however, which is the maximum duration of the TIF district.
Affordable TIF and IH Units: During the 26 year affordability period, Roers would need to
maintain 39 units at rents affordable to households whose incomes do not exceed 50% of the
AMI. Roers would submit annual information to the City regarding the households occupying
these units and the rents they pay compared to commensurate market rate units. Of the 39
affordable TIF units staff recommends a minimum of 20 one bedroom, 16 two-bedroom, and 3
three-bedroom units.
In addition, City Code Chapter 13 requires that the developer provide Inclusionary Housing (IH)
units in perpetuity that must be affordable to households earning up to 80% of AMI. The
developer will be required to provide 10 IH units including 5 one-bedroom units, 4 two-
bedroom units, and 1 three-bedroom unit.
The developer will construct an off-site trail to connect the project to the City West LRT station.
The developer is required to provide actual costs for the trail construction and the TIF note can
be adjusted to include actual trail costs up to $458,531.
The developer is in agreement with the staff recommendations.

It has been proposed by the HRA and the City that the City adopt a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan (the “Redevelopment Plan Modification”) for Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 (the “Project Area”) and establish Tax Increment Financing District No. 27: Roers Eden Prairie Apartments (the “District”) therein and
adopt a Tax Increment Financing Plan (the “TIF Plan”) therefor (the Redevelopment Plan
Modification and the TIF Plan are referred to collectively herein as the “Plans”); all pursuant to and in conformity with applicable law, including Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.001 to 469.047 and Sections 469.174 to 469.1794, all inclusive, as amended, (the “Act”) all as reflected in the Plans, and presented for the Council's consideration.
1.02. The HRA and City have investigated the facts relating to the Plans and have caused the Plans to be prepared. 1.03. The HRA and City have performed all actions required by law to be performed
prior to the establishment of the District and the adoption and approval of the proposed Plans,
including, but not limited to, notification of Hennepin County and Independent School District No. 272 having taxing jurisdiction over the property to be included in the District, approval of the Plans by the HRA on January 6, 2026, and the holding of a public hearing on October 21, 2025, upon published notice as required by law.
1.04. Certain written reports (the '”Reports”) relating to the Plans and to the activities contemplated therein have heretofore been prepared by staff and consultants and submitted to the Council and/or made a part of the City files and proceedings on the Plans. The Reports include data, information and/or substantiation constituting or relating to the basis for the other findings
and determinations made in this resolution. The Council hereby confirms, ratifies and adopts the
Reports, which are hereby incorporated into and made as fully a part of this resolution to the same extent as if set forth in full herein. Section 2. Findings for the Adoption and Approval of the Redevelopment Plan Modification.
2.01. The Council approves the Redevelopment Plan Modification, and specifically finds that: (a) the land within the Project Area would not be available for redevelopment without the
financial aid to be sought under this Redevelopment Plan; (b) the Redevelopment Plan, as
modified, will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the needs of the City as a whole, for the development of the Project Area by private enterprise; and (c) that the Redevelopment Plan, as modified, conforms to the general plan for the development of the City as a whole.
Section 3. Findings for the Establishment of Tax Increment Financing District No. 27: Roers
Eden Prairie Apartments 3.01. The Council hereby finds that Tax Increment Financing District No. 27: Roers Eden Prairie Apartments is in the public interest and is a “housing district” under Minnesota Statutes,
Section 469.174, Subd. 11 of the Act.
3.02. The Council further finds that the proposed development would not occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future, that the Plans conform to the general plan for the development or redevelopment of the City as a whole; and that the Plans will
afford maximum opportunity consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the
development or redevelopment of the District by private enterprise. 3.03. The Council further finds, declares and determines that the City made the above findings stated in this Section and has set forth the reasons and supporting facts for each
determination in writing, attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Section 4. Public Purpose. 4.01. The adoption of the Plans conforms in all respects to the requirements of the Act
and will help fulfill a need to develop an area of the City which is already built up, to provide
housing opportunities, to improve the tax base and to improve the general economy of the State and thereby serves a public purpose. For the reasons described in Exhibit A, the City believes these benefits directly derive from the tax increment assistance provided under the TIF Plan. A private developer will receive only the assistance needed to make this development financially
feasible. As such, any private benefits received by a developer are incidental and do not outweigh
the primary public benefits. Section 5. Approval and Adoption of the Plans.
5.01. Upon satisfaction of the contingency in paragraph 5.05, the Plans, as presented to
the Council on this date, including without limitation the findings and statements of objectives contained therein, are hereby approved, ratified, established, and adopted and shall be placed on file in the office of the Community Development Director.
5.02. Upon satisfaction of the contingency in paragraph 5.05, the staff of the City, the
City’s advisors and legal counsel are authorized and directed to proceed with the implementation of the Plans and to negotiate, draft, prepare and present to this Council for its consideration all further plans, resolutions, documents and contracts necessary for this purpose.
5.03 Upon satisfaction of the contingency in paragraph 5.05, the Auditor of Hennepin
County is requested to certify the original net tax capacity of the District, as described in the Plans,
and to certify in each year thereafter the amount by which the original net tax capacity has increased or decreased; and the HRA is authorized and directed to forthwith transmit this request to the County Auditor in such form and content as the Auditor may specify, together with a list of all properties within the District, for which building permits have been issued during the 18 months
immediately preceding the adoption of this resolution.
5.04. Upon satisfaction of the contingency in paragraph 5.05, the City Clerk is further authorized and directed to file a copy of the Plans with the Commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Revenue and the Office of the State Auditor pursuant to Minnesota Statutes
469.175, Subd. 4a.
5.05 The approval of the Plans and the directions given in paragraphs 5.01 through 5.04 are contingent upon receipt by the City Manager of documentation acceptable to the City Manager that Roers Eden Prairie Apartments has acquired fee simple interest in the Development Property
as defined in the Tax Increment Financing Agreement approved by the HRA. If the City Manager
does not receive such documentation on or prior to April 8, 2026, this Resolution, including but not limited to the approval of the Plans and the directions given in paragraphs 5.01 through 5.04, are null and void and of no further effect. The City Council may but is not required to take such further action to confirm that this Resolution is null and void and of no further effect.
ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Eden Prairie this 6th day of January, 2026.

EXHIBIT A
The reasons and facts supporting the findings for the adoption of the Tax Increment Financing
Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden Prairie Apartments), as required
pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, Subdivision 3 are as follows:
1. Finding that Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden Prairie Apartments) is
a housing district as defined in M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 11.
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden Prairie Apartments) consists of one (1) parcel. The development will consist of the construction of 195 apartment units in
two phases, including 39 units affordable at 50% of area median income and 10 units affordable at 80% of area median income, all or a portion of which will receive tax increment assistance and will meet income restrictions described in M.S. 469.1761. At least 20 percent of the units receiving assistance will have incomes at or below 50 percent of area median income. Appendix C of the TIF Plan contains background for the above
finding.
2. Finding that the proposed development, in the opinion of the HRA, would not reasonably
be expected to occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable
future.
The proposed development, in the opinion of the HRA, would not reasonably be expected
to occur solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future: This
finding is supported by the fact that the development proposed in this plan is a housing
district that meets the HRA's objectives for development and redevelopment. The cost of
land acquisition, site and public improvements and utilities makes this housing
development infeasible without HRA assistance. Due to decreased rental income from
affordable units, there is insufficient cash flow to provide a sufficient rate of return, pay
operating expenses, and service the debt. This leaves a gap in the funding for the project
and makes this housing development feasible only through assistance, in part, from tax
increment financing. The developer was asked for and provided a letter and a pro forma
as justification that the developer would not have gone forward without tax increment
assistance.
The increased market value of the site that could reasonably be expected to occur without
the use of tax increment financing would be less than the increase in market value
estimated to result from the proposed development after subtracting the present value of
the projected tax increments for the maximum duration of the TIF District permitted by
the TIF Plan: This finding is justified on the grounds that the cost of land acquisition, site
and public improvements, utilities and construction of affordable housing add to the total
development cost. Historically, the costs of site and public improvements as well as
reduced rents required for affordable workforce housing in the City have made
development infeasible without tax increment assistance. The HRA reasonably
determines that no other development of similar scope is anticipated on this site without
substantially similar assistance being provided to the development.
3. Finding that the TIF Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden
Prairie Apartments) conforms to the general plan for the development or redevelopment
of the municipality as a whole.
The City Council reviewed the TIF Plan and found that the TIF Plan conforms to the
general development plan of the City.
4. Finding that the TIF Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers Eden
Prairie Apartments) will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs
of the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of Redevelopment Project
Area No. 5 by private enterprise.
Through the implementation of the TIF Plan, the HRA will provide an impetus for
residential development, which is desirable or necessary for increased population and an
increased need for life-cycle housing within the City.

Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment
Financing District No. 27 (Roers)
FOREWORD
The Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority (the "HRA "), the City
of Eden Prairie (the "City"), staff and consultants have prepared the following
information to expedite the Establishment of Tax Increment Financing District
No. 27 (Roers) (the "District"), a housing tax increment financing district,
located in Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 .
STATUTORY AUTHORITY
Within the City , there exist areas where public involvement is necessary to
cause development or redevelopment to occur. To this end, the HRA and City
have certain statutory powers pursuant to Minnesota Statutes ("M.S."),
Sections 469.001 - 469.047 , inclusive, as amended, and M.S., Sections 469.174
to 469.1794 , inclusive, as amended (the "TIF Act"), to assist in financing public
costs related to this project.
This section contains the Tax Increment Financing Plan (the "TIF Plan") for the
District. Other relevant information is contained in the Modification to the
Development Program for Redevelopment Project Are a No. 5 .
STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES
The District currently consists of two (2) parcel s of land and adjacent roads
and internal rights -of -way. The District is being created to facilitate
construction of 199 units of mixed -income apartments in the City . The HRA
intends to enter into an agreement with Roers Companies for the project.
Development is anticipated to begin in 2026 . This TIF Plan is expected to
achieve many of the objectives outlined in t he Development Program for
Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 .
The activities contemplated in the Modification to the Development Program
and the TIF Plan do not preclude the undertaking of other qualified
development or redevelopment activities. These activities are anticipated to
occur over the life of Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 and the District.
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 3
DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Pursuant to t he Development Program and authorizing state statutes, the
HRA or City is authorized to undertake the following activities in the District:
1. Property to be Acquired – Although not anticipated at this time,
s elected property located within the District may be acquired by
the HRA or City and is further described in this TIF Plan.
2. Relocation - Relocation services, to the extent required by law,
are available pursuant to M.S., Chapter 117 and other relevant state
and federal laws.
3. Upon approval of a d eveloper's plan relating to the project and
completion of the necessary legal requirements, the HRA or City
may sell to a developer selected properties that it may acquire
within the District or may lease land or facilities to a developer.
4. The HRA or City may perform or provide for some or all necessary
acquisition, construction, relocation, demolition, and required
utilities and public street work within the District.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY IN THE DISTRICT AND PROPERTY
TO BE ACQUIRED
The District encompasses all property and adjacent roads rights -of -way and
abutting roadways identified by the parcels listed below.
Parcel number Address Owner

Please also see the map in Appendix A for further information on the location
of the District.
The HRA or City may acquire any parcel within the District including interior
and adjacent street rights of way. Any properties identified for acquisition will
be acquired by the HRA or City only in order to accomplish one or more of
the following: storm sewer improvements; provide land for needed public
streets, utilities and facilities; carry out land acquisition, site improvements,
clearance and/or development to accomplish the uses and ob jectives set
forth in this plan. The HRA or City may acquire property by gift, dedication,
condemnation or direct purchase from willing sellers in order to achieve the
objectives of this TIF Plan.
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 4
Such acquisitions will be undertaken only when there is assurance of funding
to finance the acquisition and related costs.
DISTRICT CLASSIFICATION
The HRA and City , in determining the need to create a tax increment financing
district in accordance with M.S., Sections 469.174 to 469.1794 , as amended,
inclusive, find that the District, to be established, is a housing district pursuant
to M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 11 and M.S., Section 469.1761.
$ The District consists of two (2) parcel s
$ The development will consist of 199 units of multi -family rental housing
$ 20% of the units will be occupied by person with incomes less than 50% of
$ The project does not include any commercial, retail or other non -
residential uses.
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.176, Subd. 7 , the District does not contain any
parcel or part of a parcel that qualified under the provisions of M.S., Sections
273.111, 273.112, or 273.114 or Chapter 473H for taxes payable in any of the five
calendar years before the filing of the request for certification of the District.
DURATION & FIRST YEAR OF DISTRICT’S TAX INCREMENT
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 1, and Section 469.176, Subd. 1 , the
duration and first year of tax increment of the District must be indicated within
the TIF Plan. Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.176, Subd. 1b., the duration of the
District will be 25 years after receipt of the first increment by the HRA or City
(a total of 26 years of tax increment). The HRA or City elects to receive the first
tax increment in 2028 , which is no later than four years following the year of
approval of the District.
Thus, it is estimated that the District, including any modifications of the TIF Plan
for subsequent phases or other changes, would terminate after 2053 , or when
the TIF Plan is satisfied. The HRA or City reserves the right to decertify the
District prior to the legally required date.
ORIGINAL TAX CAPACITY, TAX RATE & ESTIMATED CAPTURED
NET TAX CAPACITY VALUE/INCREMENT & NOTIFICATION OF
PRIOR PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 7 and M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 1 ,
the Original Net Tax Capacity (ONTC) as certified for the District will be based
on the market values placed on the property by the assessor in 2025 for taxes
payable 2026 .
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 5
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subds. 1 and 2 , the County Auditor shall
certify in each year (beginning in the payment year 202 8) the amount by
which the original value has increased or decreased as a result of:
1. Change in tax exempt status of property;
2. Reduction or enlargement of the geographic boundaries of the D istrict;
3. Change due to adjustments, negotiated or court -ordered abatements;
4. Change in the use of the property and classification;
5. Change in state law governing class rates; or
6. Change in previously issued building permits.
In any year in which the current Net Tax Capacity (NTC) value of the District
declines below the ONTC, no value will be captured and no tax increment will
be payable to the HRA or City .
The original local tax rate for the District will be the local tax rate for taxes
payable 2026 , assuming the request for certification is made before June 30,
2026 . The rates for 202 6 were not available at the time the District was
established. The ONTC and the Original Local Tax Rate for the District appear
in the table below.
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.174 Subd. 4 and M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 1, 2,
and 4 , the estimated Captured Net Tax Capacity (CTC) of the District, within
Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 , upon completion of the projects within
the District, will annually approximate tax increment revenues as shown in the
table below. The HRA and City request 100 % of the available increase in tax
capacity be used for repayment of the obligations of the HRA or City and
current expenditures, beginning in the tax year payab le 2028 . The Project Tax
Capacity (PTC) listed is an estimate of values when the projects within the
District are completed.

capacity of the District in year one is estimated to be $146,125 .
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 6
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 4 , the HRA shall, after a due and
diligent search, accompany its request for certification to the County Auditor
or its notice of the District enlargement pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175,
Subd. 4 , with a listing of all properties within the District or area of
enlargement for which building permits have been issued during the eighteen
(18) months immediately preceding approval of the TIF Plan by the
municipality pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 3. The County Auditor
shall increase the original net tax capacity of the District by the net tax
capacity of improvements for which a building permit was issued.
The City has reviewed the area to be included in the District and found no
parcels for which building permits have been issued during the 18 months
immediately preceding approval of the TIF Plan by the City.
SOURCES OF REVENUE/BONDS TO BE ISSUED
The total estimated tax increment revenues for the District are shown in the
table below:
SOURCES
Tax Increment 18,846,905$
Interest 1,884,691
TOTAL 20,731,596$
The costs outlined in the Uses of Funds will be financed primarily through the
annual collection of tax increments. The HRA or City reserves the right to
issue bonds (as defined in the TIF Act) or incur other indebtedness as a result
of the TIF Plan. As presently proposed, the projects within the District will be
financed by pay -as -you -go notes and interfund loans . Any refunding amounts
will be deemed a budgeted cost without a formal modification to this TIF
Plan. This provision does not obligate the HRA o r City to incur debt. The HRA
or City will issue bonds or incur other debt only upon the determination that
such action is in the best interest of the City.
The HRA or City may issue bonds secured in whole or in part with tax
increments from the District in a maximum principal amount of $12,013,846 .
Such bonds may be in the form of pay -as -you -go notes, revenue bonds or
notes, general obligation bonds, or interfund loans. This estimate of total
bonded indebtedness is a cumulative statement of authority under this TIF
Plan as of the date of approval.
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 7
USES OF FUNDS
Currently under consideration for the District is a proposal to facilitate
construction of 199 units of mixed -income apartments in the community. .
The HRA and City have determined that it will be necessary to provide
assistance to the project(s) for certain District costs, as described herein .
The HRA has studied the feasibility of the development or redevelopment of
property in and around the District. To facilitate the establishment and
development or redevelopment of the District, this TIF Plan authorizes the use
of tax increment financing to pay for the cost of certain eligible expenses. The
estimate of public costs and uses of funds associated with the District is
outlined in the following table.
USES
Land/Building Acquisition 5,250,000$
Site Improvements/Preparation 500,000
Affordable Housing 4,129,155
Utilities 250,000
Administrative Costs (up to 10%)1,884,691
PROJECT COSTS TOTAL 12,013,846$
Interest 8,717,750
PROJECT AND INTEREST COSTS TOTAL 20,731,596$
The total project cost, including financing costs (interest) listed in the table
above does not exceed the total projected tax increments for the District as
shown in the Sources of Revenue section.
Estimated costs associated with the District are subject to change among
categories without a modification to th e TIF Plan. The cost of all activities to
be considered for tax increment financing will not exceed, without formal
modification, the budget above pursuant to the applicable statutory
requirements. The HRA may expend funds for qualified housing activities
outside of the District boundaries.
FISCAL DISPARITIES ELECTION
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.177, Subd. 3 , the HRA or City may elect one of two
methods to calculate fiscal disparities.
The HRA will choose to calculate fiscal disparities by clause b (inside).

Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 8
E STIMATED IMPACT ON OTHER TAXING JURISDICTIONS
The estimated impact on other taxing jurisdictions assumes that the
redevelopment contemplated by the TIF Plan would occur without the
creation of the District. However, the HRA or City has determined that such
development or redevelopment would not occur "but for" tax increment
financing and that, therefore, the fiscal impact on other taxing jurisdictions is
$0. The estimated fiscal impact of the District would be as follows if the "but
for" test was not met:

Impact on Tax Rates
The estimates listed above display the captured tax capacity when all
construction is completed. The tax rate used for calculations is the Pay 202 5
rate. The total net capacity for the entities listed above are based on Pay
202 5 figures. The District will be certified under the Pay 202 6 rates, which
were unavailable at the time this TIF Plan was prepared.
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175 Subd. 2(b):
(1) Estimate of total tax increment. It is estimated that the total amount
of tax increment that will be generated over the life of the District is
$18,846,905 ;
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 9
(2) Probable impact of the District on city provided services and ability
to issue debt. An impact of the District on police protection is
expected. With any addition of new residents or businesses, police
calls for service will be increased. New developments add an
increase in traffic, and additional overall demands to the call load.
The Cit y does not expect that the proposed development, in and of
itself, will necessitate new capital investment in vehicles or facilities.
The probable impact of the District on fire protection is not expected
to be significant. Typically new buildings generate few er calls and
are of superior construction. The City does not expect that the
proposed development, in and of itself, will necessitate new capital
investment in vehicles or facilities.
The impact of the District on public infrastructure is expected to be
minimal. The development is not expected to significantly impact
any traffic movements in the area. The current infrastructure for
sanitary sewer, storm sewer and water will be able to h andle the
additional volume generated from the proposed development. Based
on the development plans, there are little to no additional costs
associated with street maintenance, sweeping, plowing, lighting and
sidewalks.
The probable impact of the issuance of any general obligation tax
increment bonds payable from tax increment revenues from the
District on the City’s ability to issue debt for general fund purposes is
expected to be minimal. It is not anticipated that ther e will be any
general obligation debt issued in relation to this project, therefore
there will be no impact on the City's ability to issue future debt or on
the City's debt limit.
(3) Estimated amount of tax increment attributable to school district
levies. It is estimated that the amount of tax increments over the life
of the District that would be attributable to school district levies,
assuming the school district's share of the total local tax rate for all
taxing jurisdictions remained the same is $4,030,3 47 ;
(4) Estimated amount of tax increment attributable to county levies. It is
estimated that the amount of tax increments over the life of the
District that would be attributable to county levies, assuming the
county's share of the total local tax rate for all taxing jurisdictions
remained the same, is $7,208,6 28;
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) 10
(5) Additional information requested by the county or school district. The
City is not aware of any standard questions in a county or school
district written policy regarding tax increment districts and impact on
county or school district services. The county or school district must
request additional information pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175 Subd.
2(b) within 15 days after receipt of the tax increment financing plan.
No requests for additional information from the county or school
district regarding the proposed development for the District have
been received.
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION
Pursuant to M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 1 (a), clause 7 th is TIF Plan must
contain identification and description of studies and analyses used to make
the determination set forth in M.S., Section 469.175, Subd. 3, clause (b)(2) and
the findings are required in the resolution approving the District.
(i) In making said determination, reliance has been placed upon (1)
written representation made by the Developer to such effects, (2)
review of the Developer’s pro forma; and (3) City staff awareness of
the feasibility of developing the project site within the District, which
is further outlined in the City Council resolution approving the
establishment of the District and Appendix C.
(ii) A comparative analysis of estimated market value both with and
without establishment of the District and the use of tax increments
has been performed. Such analysis is included with the cashflow in
Appendix B and indicates that the increase in estimated ma rket
value of the proposed development (less the indicated subtractions)
exceeds the estimated market value of the site absent the
establishment of the District and the use of tax increments.

Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers)
Appendix C: Findings Including But/For Qualifications
The reasons and facts supporting the findings for the adoption of the Tax
Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers),
as required pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, (M.S.) Section 469.175,
Subdivision 3 are as follows:
1. Finding that Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) is a housing
district as defined in M.S., Section 469.174, Subd. 11.
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers) consists of two (2)
parcel s. The development will consist of construction of 199 units of
mixed -income apartments in the community , all or a portion of which
will receive tax increment assistance and will meet income restrictions
described in M.S. Section 469.1761. At least 20% of the units receiving
assistance will be occupied by individuals and families whose incomes
are at or below 50% of area median income.
2. Finding that the proposed development, in the opinion of the City
Council, would not reasonably be expected to occur solely through
private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future.
The proposed development, in the opinion of the City, would not
reasonably be expected to occur solely through private investment
within the reasonably foreseeable future: This finding is supported by
the fact that the development proposed in th e TIF P lan is a housing
district that meets the City's objectives for development and
redevelopment. The cost of land acquisition, site and public
improvements and utilities makes this housing development infeasible
without City assistance. Due to decreased rental in come from
affordable units, there is insufficient cash flow to provide a sufficient
rate of return, pay operating expenses, and service the debt. This leaves
a gap in the funding for the project and makes this housing
development feasible only through assi stance, in part, from tax
increment financing. The Developer was asked for and provided a letter
and a pro forma as justification that the Developer would not have gone
forward without tax increment assistance.
Eden Prairie Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Tax Increment Financing District No. 27 (Roers)
The increased market value of the site that could reasonably be
expected to occur without the use of tax increment financing would be
less than the increase in market value estimated to result from the
proposed development after subtracting the present val ue of the
projected tax increments for the maximum duration of the District
permitted by the TIF Plan: This finding is justified on the grounds that
the cost of land acquisition, site and public improvements, utilities and
construction of affordable housin g add to the total development cost.
Historically, the costs of site and public improvements as well as
reduced rents required for affordable workforce housing in the City
have made development infeasible without tax increment assistance.
The City reasonably determines that no other development of similar
scope is anticipated on this site without substantially similar assistance
being provided to the development.
3. Finding that the TIF Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27
(Roers) conforms to the general plan for the development or
redevelopment of the municipality as a whole.
The City Council reviewed the TIF Plan and found that the TIF Plan
conforms to the general development plan of the City.
4. Finding that the TIF Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 27
(Roers) will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound
needs of the City as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of
Redevelopment Project Area No. 5 by private enterprise.
Through the implementation of the TIF Plan, the City will provide an
impetus for residential development, which is desirable or necessary for
increased population and an increased need for life -cycle housing within
the City. The TIF Plan also helps the HRA or the City meet their goal of
providing more affordable housing options in the City.

ITEM DESCRIPTION
Resolution Authorizing the Expenditure of Fiscal Year 2026 Opioid Settlement Funds.
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to adopt a Resolution authorizing the expenditure of Fiscal Year 2026 Opioid Settlement
Funds.
SUMMARY
On January 4, 2022 the City adopted Resolution 2022-13 to support and opt-in to the national
opioid settlements, and to ratify the City Manager’s execution of (1) opioid litigation
settlements with opioid distributors McKesson, Cardinal Health, and Amerisource Bergen and
opioid manufacturer Johnson & Johnson, and (2) Memorandum of Agreement (“MOA”)
between the State of Minnesota and local governments relating to the distribution of
settlement funds to fight the opioid crisis.
Minnesota will receive settlements over the next 18 years with the vast majority paid directly to
cities and counties. Distribution within Minnesota will be determined by the MOA. Settlement
payments started in October 2022. Settlement funds received by the State of Minnesota are to
be distributed as follows:
A.Seventy-Five percent (75%) of the funds, subject to a 7% reduction for funds held for the
special opioid abatement backstop account, will be paid directly to counties and
participating cities.
B.Twenty-Five percent (25%) of the funds will be paid to the State of Minnesota and will
go into a special opioid abatement account.
The allocation percentages to which each city and county in Minnesota that participates is to
receive, including Eden Prairie, was determined by counsel for the subdivisions negotiating the
national settlement agreements and were calculated using data to reflect the impact of the
opioid crisis on the subdivisions. Eden Prairie’s percentage of the settlement funds, is
approximately 0.255%.
Eden Prairie may use the opioid settlement funds on a number of pre-approved uses detailed in
the MOA, including: opioid prevention, treatment of use, support of people in treatment and
recovery, connections to care, address the needs of criminal justice for involved persons,
address the needs of the perinatals, caregivers and families with babies with neonatal opioid
withdrawal syndrome. While the MOA sets forth a list of settlement fund uses, they are not
exclusive.
Per the MOA, the City shall create a separate special revenue fund that is designated for the
receipt and expenditure of Opioid settlement funds. This fund shall not be commingled with
any other money or funds of the City. The City shall also pass a separate resolution authorizing
the expenditure of a stated amount of Opioid settlement for a stated period of time.

Approve Investment Policy
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to approve Investment Policy
SUMMARY
The investment policy will be reviewed and formally approved and adopted by the City Council.
No changes have been made to the policy.
ATTACHMENTS
Investment Policy
1
City of Eden Prairie
Investment Policy
Statement of Purpose
This policy has been developed to serve as a guide for the management of City investments. It is the policy of the City to invest public funds in a manner which provides for the following in order
of importance: Safety; Liquidity; and Yield (return on investment) that conforms to all federal,
state, and local regulations governing the investment of public funds. The City will invest in securities that match the City’s operational, short-term and longer-term needs.
Except for cash in certain restricted and special funds, all cash and investments are pooled together
to achieve economies of scale. Investment income will be allocated to the various funds based on
their respective participation and according to generally accepted accounting principles.
Objectives
The primary objectives, in order of priority, of investment activities are safety, liquidity, and yield:
• Safety - Safety of principal is of critical importance to the investment program. Investments will be undertaken in a way that seeks to ensure the preservation of principal
in the overall portfolio. The objective will be to mitigate credit risk and interest rate risk.
• Credit Risk – the risk of loss due to failure by the security backer will be minimized by:
• Limiting investments to the types of securities listed in the Diversity Section
of this policy.
• Pre-qualifying the financial institutions, broker/dealers, intermediaries, and advisors with which the City will do business in accordance with the Financial Service Providers section of this policy.
• Diversifying the portfolio so that the impact of potential losses from any one type of security or from any one individual issuer will be minimized. Insurance or collateral may be required to ensure return of principal.
• Interest Rate Risk – the risk that the market value of securities in the portfolio will
fall due to changes in market interest rates will be minimized to:
• Provide for liquidity by reviewing cash flow requirements and make investments to meet the shorter cash flow needs, thereby avoiding the need to sell securities in the open market prior to maturity.
• Manage the duration of the portfolio to be consistent with the risk profile of the City of not to exceed 3.5 years.
2
• Liquidity – The investment portfolio will be managed to remain sufficiently liquid to meet all operating requirements that may be reasonably anticipated. The portfolio will be structured so
that funds for approximately three months of cash flow needs are readily available.
• Yield/Return on Investment - The investment portfolio will be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return. Investments are limited to low-risk securities in anticipation
of earning a fair return relative to the risk assumed. While it is expected that all securities
would be suitable to be held until maturity, sales can occur for the following reasons:
o A security with declining credit may be sold early to minimize loss of principal.
o A security swap which improves the quality, yield, or target duration of the portfolio.
o Liquidity need of the portfolio requires that a security be sold.
Delegation of Authority
The investment program shall be operated in conformance with federal, state, and other legal requirements. Authority to manage the City’s investment program is derived from Minnesota Statutes 118A, Deposit and Investment of Local Public Funds. By approval of this policy, the City Council’s management responsibility for the investment program is hereby delegated by the City Manager to the Finance Manager.
Internal Controls - The Finance Manager is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the City are protected from loss, theft or misuse. The internal control structure will be designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that: (1) the cost of a control
should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits
require estimates and judgments by management.
Ethics and Conflict of Interest
Employees involved in the investment process will refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with the proper execution and management of the investment program. Employees and investment officials will disclose any material interests in financial institutions with which they conduct business. They will further disclose any personal financial/investment positions that
could be related to the performance of the investment portfolio. Employees and officers will refrain
from undertaking personal investment transactions with the same individual with whom business is conducted for the City.
Financial Service Providers
The City may purchase securities directly through Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) registered security broker/dealers.
Each authorized broker/dealer from whom the City purchases securities directly shall provide
certification as requested by State Law of the broker’s annual review of the City’s investment
3
policy. All broker/dealers who desire to become qualified bidders for investment transactions must supply the City with FINRA certification and CRD number.
FINRA is the self-regulatory national organization for broker/dealers. All registration and certifications information is kept in their Central Registration Depository which is available online to all investors.
Investment Managers
The City may utilize SEC registered investment advisory/management firms (External Investment Managers) to invest segments of the portfolio. Managers shall be selected through an RFP process. The External Investment Managers will operate within the constraints of this Investment Policy
and an executed Investment Advisory Agreement. The External Investment Managers shall have discretion over the assigned segment of the portfolio. All External Investment Managers shall purchase and sell investment securities in accordance with Minnesota Statute 118A, this Investment Policy and the Investment Advisory Agreement. Each External Investment Manager
shall provide certification as requested by State Law of their annual review of the City’s investment
policy. External Investment Managers may be assigned differing strategies, constraints and assets to manage at the discretion of the Finance Manager. External Investment Managers must be registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and be licensed and registered to do business in Minnesota and registered as an investment advisor through IARD (Investment Advisor
Registration Depository) in Minnesota.
Suitable and Authorized Investments
Investment Types – All investments made by the City will be in accordance with Minnesota Statutes. Authorized investments include but are not limited to:
• Governmental bonds, notes, bills, mortgages (excluding high-risk mortgage-backed securities) and other securities, which are direct obligations or are guaranteed or insured issues of the United States, its agencies, its instrumentalities, or organizations created by an act of Congress.
• General obligation of any state or local government with taxing powers which is rated "A" or better by a national bond rating service.
• Revenue obligation of any state or local government with taxing powers which is rated "AA" or better by a national bond rating service.

banks.
4
• SEC-registered money market funds that are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
• Local government investment pools (“LGIPs”).
Additional Investment Authority
So long as the City is a “qualifying government” pursuant to Minnesota Statute 118A, it will have additional investment authority per this policy and Minnesota Statute. A qualifying government is defined by Minnesota Statute 118A.09, Subd. 1 as:
• A county or statutory or home rule charter city with a population of more than 100,000; or
• A county or statutory or home rule charter city whose most recent long-term, senior, general obligation rating by one or more national rating organizations in the prior 18-month period is AA or higher.
As long as the City is a qualifying government, it may invest up to 15 percent of the sum of unassigned cash, cash equivalents, deposits, and investments in:
• An index mutual fund based in the United States and indexed to a broad market United States equity index, on the condition that index mutual fund investments must be made directly with the main sales office of the fund; or
• With the Minnesota State Board of Investment subject to such terms and minimum
amounts as may be adopted by the board.
Before investing pursuant to this section, the governing body of the qualifying government must adopt a resolution that includes the following statements:
• The governing body understands that investments have a risk of loss
• The governing body understands the type of funds that are being invested and the specific investment itself
• The governing body certifies that all funds designated for investment through the
State Board of Investment meet the requirements of this section and the policies and procedures established by the State Board of Investment.
Qualified External Investment Managers assisting the City in the management of its overall portfolio may purchase and sell investment securities in accordance with this policy and may utilize their own approved list of broker/dealers and security issuers; however, the list shall fully
comply with the criteria maintained in this policy.
Collateralization
To the extent that funds deposited are in excess of available federal deposit insurance, the City will require the financial institution to furnish collateral security or a corporate surety bond executed
by a company authorized to do business in the state.
The following are the allowable forms of collateral in lieu of a corporate surety bond:
5
• U.S. government treasury bills, treasury notes, treasury bonds.
• Issues of U.S. government agencies and instrumentalities as quoted by a recognized industry quotation service available to the government entity.
• General obligation securities of any state or local government with taxing powers
which is rated "A" or better by a national bond rating service, or revenue obligation
securities of any state or local government with taxing powers which is rated "AA" or better by a national bond rating service.
• General obligation securities of a local government with taxing powers may be pledged as collateral against funds deposited by the same government entity.
• Irrevocable standby letters of credit issued by Federal Home Loan Banks to a municipality accompanied by written evidence that the bank's public debt is rated "AA" or better by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., or Standard & Poor's Corporation.
• Time deposits that are fully insured by any federal agency.
The amount of the collateral computed at its market value will be at least ten (10) percent more than the amount on deposit at the close of the business day, except that where the
collateral is irrevocable standby letters of credit issued by Federal Home Loan Banks, the
amount of collateral shall be at least equal to the amount on deposit at the close of the City’s business day. The City may furnish both a surety bond and collateral aggregating the required amount.
Repurchase Agreements - Repurchase agreements consisting of collateral allowable as an
investment may be entered into with any of the following entities:
• A financial institution qualified as a "depository" of public funds of the government
entity.
• Any other financial institution which is a member of the Federal Reserve System and whose combined capital and surplus equals or exceeds $10,000,000.
• A primary reporting dealer in United States government securities to the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York.
• A securities broker-dealer licensed pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 80A, or an affiliate of it, regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and maintaining a combined capital and surplus of $40,000,000 or more, exclusive of
subordinated debt.
Reverse agreements may only be entered into for a period of 90 days or less and only to meet short-term cash flow needs.
Safekeeping and Custody
Securities purchased shall be held in a segregated account for the City’s benefit at a third-party
trustee as a safekeeping agent. The investment dealer or bank through which the security is
6
purchased shall issue a confirmation ticket to the City listing the specific instrument, issuer, coupon, maturity, CUSIP number, purchase or sale price, transaction date, and other pertinent
information. The broker who executes the transaction on the City’s behalf shall deliver all
securities on a delivery versus payment method (DVP) to the designated third party. Delivery versus payment (DVP) is a way of controlling the risk to which securities market participants are exposed. Delivery of securities, (the change in their ownership) is done simultaneously with payment. This means that neither the buyer nor the seller is exposed to the risk that the other will
default.
Investments, contracts, and agreement may be held in safekeeping with:
• any Federal Reserve bank;
• any bank authorized under the laws of the United States or any state to exercise corporate trust powers, including, but not limited to, the bank from which the investment is purchased.
The City’s ownership of all securities should be evidenced by written acknowledgements identifying the securities by:
The name of the issuers
The maturity dates
The interest rates
Any CUSIP numbers or other distinguishing marks.
Maximum Maturities
• Approximately three months of cash flow needs will be invested in money market or short-term securities to meet current operating needs.
• The average duration of the portfolio shall not exceed 3.5 years.
• Unless matched to a specific cash flow, the City will not directly invest in securities maturing more than seven (7) years from security settlement date.
• For mortgage-backed securities, the weighted average life (WAL) must be no more than
seven (7) years from security settlement date.
• The intent to invest in securities with longer durations will be disclosed to the City Council prior to purchase.
• Maturities will generally be diversified to avoid undue concentration of assets in a public
sector.
• Exception of maximum maturity is in reserve funds (per bond indentures) which may be invested to maturity that coincides as nearly as practical with the expected use of the funds.
7
Diversification
Diversification - The investments will be diversified by:
• Limiting investments to avoid over concentration in securities from a specific issuer or business sector (excluding U.S. Treasury securities).
• Investing in securities with varying maturities as practical.
• Investing a portion of the portfolio in readily available funds to ensure that appropriate liquidity is maintained in order to meet ongoing obligations.
Diversification strategies will be implemented with the following constraints so that a Portfolio
does not exceed the percentage identified below:
Issuer Type % of Total Portfolio
Money Market Fund 45%
Certificates of Deposit 25%
Savings/demand deposits 15%
Bankers’ Acceptance
Per Issuer
20%
5%
Commercial Paper

US Treasury Obligations 100%

Federal Agency Mortgage-backed Securities: 40%
Municipal Securities

Guaranteed Investment Contracts By Project
Any percentage limits, maturity length, rating requirements, or other investment parameters will be calculated and/or evaluated based on the original cost of each investment at the time of
purchase, based on the settlement date, of the security in determining compliance with this
investment policy.
Performance Standards
The investment portfolio will be designed to obtain a market average rate of return during budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the City’s investment risk constraints and cash flow needs. The City’s investment strategy is conservative and is designed to earn rates similar to U.S. treasury yields.
8
Reporting
The Finance Manager will periodically prepare an investment report including a summary that provides an analysis of the current investment portfolio. The summary will include the percentage of investments held in each investment type, information on investment income and yield, and the maturities of the portfolio. A detailed report will be provided and will include a listing of
individual securities held, the yield to maturity of each investment, the book value and the market
value of each investment, and the maturity date of each investment.
Amendments

Item Number: VII.N.
Department: Rick Clark, Facilities Manager, Administration
ITEM DESCRIPTION
Approve purchase and installation of a new PA (paging) system for the Eden Prairie Community
Center.
REQUESTED ACTION
Approve Agreement for Contract Services with Heartland Business Systems for the purchase
and installation of a facility-wide paging system at the Eden Prairie Community Center in an
amount not to exceed $65,939.41.
SUMMARY
As part of the 2025 Facilities CIP, a building-wide PA (paging) system upgrade is planned for the
Eden Prairie Community Center. The new system will provide paging functionality across public
spaces, rental areas, fitness rooms, aquatic areas, rinks, staff offices, and key back-of-house
locations.
The paging system is designed to piggyback on the soon to be implemented Police Department
paging controller (InformaCast Fusion), allowing shared administration and future integration
for emergency messaging and panic button capabilities across the broader City campus. While
emergency integration is not part of this initial scope, the system infrastructure is designed with
future expandability in mind.
True North Consulting Group (TNCG) developed a detailed design and specifications package
based on feedback from Facilities, IT, and Community Center staff. Bids were solicited from
qualified vendors using these specifications, with the following verified bid results:
Vendor Bid Amount
Heartland Business Systems $65,939.41
Tierney Brothers $93,893.00
Alpha Video & Audio $129,034.04
Staff recommends awarding the contract to Heartland Business Systems, the low bidder, whose
proposal meets the design intent and equipment specifications provided by TNCG.

Standard Agreement for Contract Services (rev. 6/2024) Page 5 of 12
to advise Contractor of any deficiencies in such documents and receipt thereof shall not relieve Contractor from, nor be deemed a waiver of, City’s right to enforce the terms
of Contractor’s obligations hereunder. City reserves the right to examine any policy
provided for under this paragraph. o. Effect of Contractor’s Failure to Provide Insurance. If Contractor fails to provide the specified insurance, then Contractor will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the
City, the City's officials, agents and employees from any loss, claim, liability and expense
(including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses of litigation) to the extent necessary to afford the same protection as would have been provided by the specified insurance. Except to the extent prohibited by law, this indemnity applies regardless of any strict liability or negligence attributable to the City (including sole negligence) and regardless
of the extent to which the underlying occurrence (i.e., the event giving rise to a claim
which would have been covered by the specified insurance) is attributable to the negligent or otherwise wrongful act or omission (including breach of contract) of Contractor, its subcontractors, agents, employees or delegates. Contractor agrees that this indemnity shall be construed and applied in favor of indemnification. Contractor
also agrees that if applicable law limits or precludes any aspect of this indemnity, then
the indemnity will be considered limited only to the extent necessary to comply with that applicable law. The stated indemnity continues until all applicable statutes of limitation have run.
If a claim arises within the scope of the stated indemnity, the City may require Contractor
to: i. Furnish and pay for a surety bond, satisfactory to the City, guaranteeing performance of the indemnity obligation; or ii. Furnish a written acceptance of tender of defense and indemnity from
Contractor's insurance company.
Contractor will take the action required by the City within fifteen (15) days of receiving notice from the City.
10. Indemnification. Contractor will defend and indemnify City, its officers, agents, and
employees and hold them harmless from and against all third party judgments, claims, damages, costs and expenses, including a reasonable amount as and for its attorney’s fees paid, incurred or for which it may be liable resulting from any breach of this Agreement by Contractor, its agents, contractors and employees, or any negligent or intentional act or
omission performed, taken or not performed or taken by Contractor, its agents, contractors and
employees, relative to this Agreement. City will indemnify and hold Contractor harmless from and against any loss for injuries or damages arising out of the negligent acts of the City, its officers, agents or employees.
11. Warranty. Contractor warrants and represents that Contractor’s services will conform to
industry standards and will be completed in a good, skillful and professional manner, in accordance with all applicable laws. Contractor is a reseller of products. As such, any hardware, software, parts, licenses or third-party services sold to City, or integrated, included
Standard Agreement for Contract Services (rev. 6/2024) Page 6 of 12
or utilized as part of any Contractor service offering sold to City, may be subject to a warranty made by the manufacturer or other third party to City and, if so, the terms and conditions of
such warranty are set forth in other documents. City acknowledges that Contractor is not a
party to any such warranty, and that any rights or remedies that City may have pursuant to said warranty are against the manufacturer or other third party directly, and is not assertable against Contractor. Subject to the warranty requirements set forth above, the Contractor expressly warrants and guarantees to the City that all Work performed and all materials furnished shall
be in accord with the Agreement and shall be free from defects in materials, workmanship, and
operation which appear within a period of one year, or within such longer period as may be prescribed by law or in the terms of the Agreement, from the date of City’s written acceptance of the Work. The City’s rights under the Contractor’s warranty for services are not the City’s exclusive remedy. The City shall have all other remedies available under this Agreement, at
law or in equity.
Subject to the warranty requirements set forth above, should any defects develop in the materials, workmanship or operation of the system within the specified period, upon notice from the City, the Contractor agrees, within ten (10) calendar days after receiving written
notice and without expense to the City, to repair, replace and in general to perform all necessary
corrective Work with regard to the defective or nonconforming Work or materials to the satisfaction of the City. THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT IN ANY MANNER LIMIT THE CITY’S REMEDY OR THE CONTRACTOR’S LIABILITY TO THOSE DEFECTS APPEARING WITHIN THE WARRANTY PERIOD. The Contractor agrees to perform the
Work in a manner and at a time so as to minimize any damages sustained by the City and so
as to not interfere with or in any way disrupt the operation of the City or the public. Subject to the warranty requirements set forth above, the corrective Work referred to above shall include without limitation, (a) the cost of removing the defective or nonconforming Work
and materials from the site, (b) the cost of correcting all Work of other Contractors destroyed
or damaged by defective or nonconforming Work and materials including the cost of removal of such damaged Work and materials form the site, and (c) the cost of correcting all damages to Work of other Contractors caused by the removal of the defective or nonconforming Work or materials.
The Contractor shall post bonds to secure the warranties. 12. Termination. a. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by either party for breach or non-
performance of any provision of this Agreement in accordance with the following. The

performance. Upon failure of the notified party to do so, this Agreement shall automatically terminate.

within a reasonable time after such termination to remove from City’s premises any
and all of Contractor’s equipment and other property. Except for liability resulting from acts or omissions of a party, arising, taken or omitted prior to such termination, the rights and obligations of each party resulting from this Agreement shall cease upon such termination. Any prior liability of a party shall survive termination of this
Agreement.
c. In the event of dissolution, termination of existence, insolvency, appointment of a receiver, assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or the service of any warrant,
attachment, levy or similar process involving Contractor, City may, at its option in
addition to any other remedy to which City may be entitled, immediately terminate this Agreement by notice to Contractor, in which event, this Agreement shall terminate on the notice becoming effective.

ITEM DESCRIPTION
Updated Site Work Following Retaining Wall Removal Design Change
REQUESTED ACTION
Approve Change Order with Minnesota Utilities & Excavating, LLC in the amount of $25,322.00
SUMMARY
This change relates to updated site work performed by Minnesota Utilities & Excavating
following a design decision to remove the large retaining wall and the flattened pad area, and
instead create a sloped transition into the wetland behind the City Center building.
As a result of that change, additional excavation and grading work was required, resulting in an
increase of $25,322.00 for Minnesota Utilities. While this contractor’s scope increased, the
overall project impact from this same design revision is a net cost reduction, as larger cost
decreases are being realized through reduced landscaping and fencing work.

ITEM DESCRIPTION
Renew 3-year agreement for tertiary immutable backup using S3 compatible cloud object
storage repository with Xigent Solutions.
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to: Approve the implementation of Backup Repository as a Service with Xigent Solutions
for a monthly recurring fee of $2,210.59 for a 36-month term.
SUMMARY
In 2022, the City of Eden Prairie worked with Xigent Solutions to setup a hosted Backup
Repository as a Service (BRaaS) using Cohesity with a 3-year term. This has allowed the city to
setup an offsite secure and immutable backup and also meet requirements of the city’s
cybersecurity insurance through League of Minnesota Cities.
This agreement is a renewal of a 3-year term for continued offsite backup of the City of Eden
Prairie data with Xigent’s S3 cloud object storage. This will allow city staff to restore backup
from this tertiary site should there be a compromise of data in the city’s primary data center
(located at City Hall) or Disaster Recovery location (located at the Community Center).
The annual agreement cost is $26,527.08. The IT division has budgeted for this service in the IT
Operational budget.

Agreement, who shall be employees, and under the direction, of Consultant and in no respect employees of City, and (ii) shall have no authority to employ persons, or make purchases of equipment on behalf of City, or otherwise bind or obligate City.

11. Insurance. a. General Liability. Prior to starting the Work, Consultant shall procure, maintain and pay for such insurance as will protect against claims or loss which may arise out of operations by Consultant or by any subcontractor or by anyone employed by any of
them or by anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable. Such insurance shall
include, but not be limited to, minimum coverages and limits of liability specified in this Paragraph, or required by law. b. If Consultant’s insurance does not afford coverage on behalf of subcontractors,
Consultant must require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting
all the requirements of this paragraph 11, and Consultant must include in its contract with subcontractors the requirement that the City be listed as an additional insured on insurance required from subcontractors. In such case, prior to a subcontractor performing any Work covered by this Agreement, Consultant must: (i) provide the City
with a certificate of insurance issued by the subcontractor’s insurance agent indicating
that the City is an additional insured on the subcontractor’s insurance policy; and (ii) submit to the City a copy of Consultant’s agreement with the subcontractor for purposes of the City’s review of compliance with the requirements of this paragraph 11.

cover liability arising from premises, operations, independent contractors, products-
completed operations, personal and advertising injury, and liability assumed under an insured contract (including the tort liability of another assumed in a business contract). There shall be no endorsement or modification of the Commercial General Liability form arising from pollution, explosion, collapse, underground property damage or
work performed by subcontractors.
e. Professional Liability Insurance. In addition to the coverages listed above, Consultant shall maintain a professional liability insurance policy in the amount of $2,000,000. Said policy need not name the City as an additional insured. It shall be Consultant’s
responsibility to pay any retention or deductible for the professional liability insurance.
Consultant agrees to maintain the professional liability insurance for a minimum of two (2) years following termination of this Agreement. f. Consultant shall maintain “stop gap” coverage if Consultant obtains Workers’
Compensation coverage from any state fund if Employer’s liability coverage is not
available. g. All policies, except the Worker’s Compensation Policy, Automobile Policy, and Professional Liability Policy, shall name the “City of Eden Prairie” as an additional
insured including products and completed operations.
h. All policies, except the Professional Liability Policy, shall apply on a “per project” basis.
i. All General Liability policies, Automobile Liability policies and Umbrella policies

Page 6 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
obligations assumed by Consultant under this Agreement except with respect to the liability for loss or damage resulting from the negligence or fault of anyone other than
the Consultant or others for whom the Consultant is legally liable.
l. Consultant agrees to maintain all coverage required herein throughout the term of the Agreement and for a minimum of two (2) years following City’s written acceptance of the Work.
m. It shall be Consultant’s responsibility to pay any retention or deductible for the coverages required herein. n. All policies shall contain a provision or endorsement that coverages afforded
thereunder shall not be cancelled or non-renewed or restrictive modifications added,
without thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the City, except that if the cancellation or non-renewal is due to non-payment, the coverages may not be terminated or non-renewed without ten (10) days’ prior notice to the City.
o. Consultant shall maintain in effect all insurance coverages required under this
Paragraph at Consultant’s sole expense and with insurance companies licensed to do business in the state in Minnesota and having a current A.M. Best rating of no less than A-, unless specifically accepted by City in writing.
p. A copy of the Consultant’s Certificate of Insurance which evidences the compliance with this Paragraph, must be filed with City prior to the start of Consultant’s Work. Upon request a copy of the Consultant’s insurance declaration page, Rider and/or Endorsement, as applicable shall be provided. Such documents evidencing Insurance shall be in a form acceptable to City and shall provide satisfactory
evidence that Consultant has complied with all insurance requirements. Renewal
certificates shall be provided to City prior to the expiration date of any of the required policies. City will not be obligated, however, to review such Certificate of Insurance, declaration page, Rider, Endorsement or certificates or other evidence of insurance, or to advise Consultant of any deficiencies in such documents and receipt thereof shall
not relieve Consultant from, nor be deemed a waiver of, City’s right to enforce the
terms of Consultant’s obligations hereunder. City reserves the right to examine any policy provided for under this paragraph. q. Effect of Consultant’s Failure to Provide Insurance. If Consultant fails to provide
the specified insurance, then Consultant will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the
City, the City's officials, agents and employees from any loss, claim, liability and expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses of litigation) to the extent necessary to afford the same protection as would have been provided by the specified insurance. Except to the extent prohibited by law, this indemnity applies regardless of any strict
liability or negligence attributable to the City (including sole negligence) and regardless
of the extent to which the underlying occurrence (i.e., the event giving rise to a claim which would have been covered by the specified insurance) is attributable to the negligent or otherwise wrongful act or omission (including breach of contract) of
Page 7 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
Consultant, its subcontractors, agents, employees or delegates. Consultant agrees that this indemnity shall be construed and applied in favor of indemnification. Consultant
also agrees that if applicable law limits or precludes any aspect of this indemnity, then
the indemnity will be considered limited only to the extent necessary to comply with that applicable law. The stated indemnity continues until all applicable statutes of limitation have run.
If a claim arises within the scope of the stated indemnity, the City may require Consultant
to: i. Furnish and pay for a surety bond, satisfactory to the City, guaranteeing performance of the indemnity obligation; or ii. Furnish a written acceptance of tender of defense and indemnity from
Consultant's insurance company.
Consultant will take the action required by the City within fifteen (15) days of receiving notice from the City.
12. Indemnification. Consultant will defend and indemnify City, its officers, agents, and
employees and hold them harmless from and against all judgments, claims, damages, costs and expenses, including a reasonable amount as and for its attorney’s fees paid, incurred or for which it may be liable resulting from any breach of this Agreement by Consultant, its agents, contractors and employees, or any negligent or intentional act or omission
performed, taken or not performed or taken by Consultant, its agents, contractors and
employees, relative to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Consultant’s obligation to defend the City will not apply to claims covered by Consultant’s professional liability insurance. City will indemnify and hold Consultant harmless from and against any loss for injuries or damages arising out of the negligent acts of the City, its officers, agents
or employees.
13. Ownership of Documents. All plans, diagrams, analyses, reports and information generated in connection with the performance of the Agreement (“Information”) shall become the property of the City, but Consultant may retain copies of such documents as
records of the services provided. The City may use the Information for its purposes and the
Consultant also may use the Information for its purposes. Use of the Information for the purposes of the project contemplated by this Agreement (“Project”) does not relieve any liability on the part of the Consultant, but any use of the Information by the City or the Consultant beyond the scope of the Project is without liability to the other, and the party
using the Information agrees to defend and indemnify the other from any claims or liability
resulting therefrom. 14. Mediation. Each dispute, claim or controversy arising from or related to this agreement shall be subject to mediation as a condition precedent to initiating legal or equitable actions
by either party. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the mediation shall be in accordance
with the Commercial Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association then currently in effect. A request for mediation shall be filed in writing with the American Arbitration Association and the other party. No legal or equitable action may be instituted
Page 8 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
for a period of 90 days from the filing of the request for mediation unless a longer period of time is provided by agreement of the parties. Cost of mediation shall be shared equally
between the parties. Mediation shall be held in the City of Eden Prairie unless another
location is mutually agreed upon by the parties. The parties shall memorialize any agreement resulting from the mediation in a mediated settlement agreement, which agreement shall be enforceable as a settlement in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

immediately prior to the event, act or omission giving rise to such liability, unless
the action or claim arises or results from a Party’s negligence or intentional
misconduct. The warranty disclaimers and exclusions and limitations of liability in
this Section 6 are intended to apply without regard to whether other provisions of
this Agreement have been breached or have proven ineffective and form an
essential basis of the bargain between the Parties. Absent any of such disclaimers,
exclusions or limitations of liability, the provisions of this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the economic terms, would be substantially different.
b. Section 9.1 of the Master Agreement is amended to read as follows:

obligations of the Parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with, and shall
be governed by, the laws of the State of Minnesota without giving effect to its rules
regarding conflicts of laws. The Parties agree that any disputes regarding this
Agreement that cannot be resolved through negotiations between the designated
representatives from each Party within thirty (30) days of the date the dispute arose
will first be submitted to mediation in Hennepin County, Minnesota with mediator
costs split equally between the parties. Any dispute not resolved through mediation
shall be subject to litigation in state or federal court located in Hennepin County,
Minnesota. The U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods
shall not apply to this Agreement.
5. The following new provisions are added to the Master Agreement:
9.16 Insurance. Prior to providing products or services under this Agreement, Rave shall procure, maintain and pay for such insurance as will protect against
claims or loss which may arise out of operations by Rave or by any subcontractor or by anyone employed by any of them or by anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable. Such insurance shall include, but not be limited to, coverages and limits of liability specified in this Paragraph, or required by law:
3
(a) Rave shall maintain a commercial general liability insurance policy with
limits of $1,000,000 each occurrence and $2,000,0000 aggregate, for both

cyber liability coverage, in the amount of $2,000,000 per claim and annual

herein. Vendor shall provide City with a Certificate of Insurance verifying
insurance coverage before providing services to City under this Agreement.

All government data, as defined in the Data Practices Act Section 13.02, Subd 7, which is created, collected, received, stored, used, maintained, or disseminated by Rave in performing any of the functions of the City during performance of this Agreement is subject to the requirements of the Data Practices Act and Rave shall
comply with those requirements as if it were a government entity. All subcontracts entered into by Rave in relation to this Agreement shall contain similar Data Practices Act compliance language.

Item Number: VII.V.
Department: Public Works/Engineering – Patrick Sejkora, Water Resources Engineer
ITEM DESCRIPTION
Approve Professional Services Agreement with Short Elliot Hendrickson, Inc. for Design of the
Watermain Rehabilitation Project.
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to: Approve Professional Services Agreement with Short Elliot Hendrickson, Inc.
for the Watermain Rehabilitation Project in the amount of $53,834.00.
SUMMARY
This project will include design to rehabilitate two areas where the City watermain has had
multiple breaks requiring emergency repairs. One area includes Quebec Circle, Vancouver Road,
Ontario Boulevard, and Manitoba Road. The second area is a length of watermain that runs
largely parallel to Flying Cloud Drive between Regional Center Drive and Prairie Center Drive.
The proposed project is a cured in place pipe (CIPP) rehabilitation for approximately 3,700 feet
of watermain. A CIPP repair is a trenchless pipe rehabilitation process that reduces disturbance
for adjacent properties in comparison to an open cut pipe replacement. The project will also
replace aging hydrants within the project area.

Professional Services Agreement
(rev. 6/2024)
Agreement for Professional Services
This Agreement (“Agreement”) is made on this 6th day of January, 2026, between the City of
Eden Prairie, Minnesota, a municipal corporation (hereinafter “City”), whose business address is
8080 Mitchell Road, Eden Prairie, MN 55344, and Short Elliot Hendrickson, Inc., a Minnesota
Corporation (hereinafter “Consultant”) whose business address is 3535 Vadnais Center Dr, St
Paul, MN 55110.
Preliminary Statement
The City has adopted a policy regarding the selection and hiring of consultants to provide a variety
of professional services for City projects. That policy requires that persons, firms or corporations
providing such services enter into written agreements with the City. The purpose of this
Agreement is to set forth the terms and conditions for the provision of professional services by
Consultant for IC 26806 Watermain Rehabilitation Project hereinafter referred to as the “Work”.
The City and Consultant agree as follows:
1. Scope of Work. The Consultant agrees to provide the professional services shown in
Exhibit A (Proposal dated December 19, 2025) in connection with the Work. Exhibit A is
intended to be the scope of service for the work of the Consultant. Any general or specific
conditions, terms, agreements, consultant or industry proposal, or contract terms attached
to or a part of Exhibit A are declined in full and, accordingly, are deleted and shall not be
in effect in any manner.
2. Term. The term of this Agreement shall be from January 6, 2026 through June 30, 2026
the date of signature by the parties notwithstanding. This Agreement may be extended
upon the written mutual consent of the parties for such additional period as they deem
appropriate, and upon the terms and conditions as herein stated.
3. Compensation for Services. City agrees to pay the Consultant on an hourly basis plus
expenses in a total amount not to exceed $53,834.00 for the services as described in Exhibit
A.
a. Any changes in the scope of the work which may result in an increase to the
compensation due the Consultant shall require prior written approval by an
authorized representative of the City or by the City Council. The City will not pay
additional compensation for services that do not have prior written authorization.
b. Special Consultants may be utilized by the Consultant when required by the
complex or specialized nature of the Project and when authorized in writing by the
City.
c. If Consultant is delayed in performance due to any cause beyond its reasonable
control, including but not limited to strikes, riots, fires, acts of God, governmental
actions, actions of a third party, or actions or inactions of City, the time for
Page 2 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
performance shall be extended by a period of time lost by reason of the delay.
Consultant will be entitled to payment for its reasonable additional charges, if any,
due to the delay.
4. City Information. The City agrees to provide the Consultant with the complete
information concerning the Scope of the Work and to perform the following services:
a. Access to the Area. Depending on the nature of the Work, Consultant may from
time to time require access to public and private lands or property. As may be
necessary, the City shall obtain access to and make all provisions for the Consultant
to enter upon public and private lands or property as required for the Consultant to
perform such services necessary to complete the Work.
b. Consideration of the Consultant's Work. The City shall give thorough
consideration to all reports, sketches, estimates, drawings, and other documents
presented by the Consultant, and shall inform the Consultant of all decisions
required of City within a reasonable time so as not to delay the work of the
Consultant.
c. Standards. The City shall furnish the Consultant with a copy of any standard or
criteria, including but not limited to, design and construction standards that may be
required in the preparation of the Work for the Project.
d. City's Representative. A person shall be appointed to act as the City's representative
with respect to the work to be performed under this Agreement. He or she shall
have complete authority to transmit instructions, receive information, interpret, and
define the City's policy and decisions with respect to the services provided or
materials, equipment, elements and systems pertinent to the work covered by this
Agreement.
5. Method of Payment. The Consultant shall submit to the City, on a monthly basis, an
itemized invoice for professional services performed under this Agreement. Invoices
submitted shall be paid in the same manner as other claims made to the City for:
a. Progress Payment. For work reimbursed on an hourly basis, the Consultant shall
indicate for each employee, his or her name, job title, the number of hours worked,
rate of pay for each employee, a computation of amounts due for each employee,
and the total amount due for each project task. Consultant shall verify all statements
submitted for payment in compliance with Minnesota Statutes Sections 471.38 and
471.391. For reimbursable expenses, if provided for in Exhibit A, the Consultant
shall provide an itemized listing and such documentation as reasonably required by
the City. Each invoice shall contain the City’s project number and a progress
summary showing the original (or amended) amount of the contract, current billing,
past payments and unexpended balance of the contract.
b. Suspended Work. If any work performed by the Consultant is suspended in whole
or in part by the City, the Consultant shall be paid for any services set forth on
Page 3 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
Exhibit A performed prior to receipt of written notice from the City of such
suspension.
c. Payments for Special Consultants. The Consultant shall be reimbursed for the work
of special consultants, as described herein, and for other items when authorized in
writing by the City.
d. Claims. By making the claim for payment, the person making the claim is declaring
that the account, claim, or demand is just and correct and that no part of it has been
paid.
6. Project Manager and Staffing. The Consultant shall designate a Project Manager and
notify the City in writing of the identity of the Project Manager before starting work on the
Project. The Project Manager shall be assisted by other staff members as necessary to
facilitate the completion of the Work in accordance with the terms established herein.
Consultant may not remove or replace the Project Manager without the approval of the
City.
7. Standard of Care. Consultant shall exercise the same degree of care, skill and diligence
in the performance of its services as is ordinarily exercised by members of the profession
under similar circumstances in Hennepin County, Minnesota. Consultant shall be liable to
the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, without limitation, for any injuries, loss,
or damages proximately caused by Consultant's breach of this standard of care. Consistent
with this standard of care, Consultant shall put forth reasonable efforts to complete its
duties in a timely manner. Consultant shall not be responsible for delays caused by factors
beyond its control or that could not be reasonably foreseen at the time of execution of this
Agreement. Consultant shall be responsible for costs, delays or damages arising from
unreasonable delays in the performance of its duties.
8. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by either party by seven (7) days written
notice delivered to the other party at the address written above. Upon termination under
this provision, if there is no fault of the Consultant, the Consultant shall be paid for services
rendered and reimbursable expenses until the effective date of termination. If however, the
City terminates the Agreement because the Consultant has failed to perform in accordance
with this Agreement, no further payment shall be made to the Consultant, and the City may
retain another consultant to undertake or complete the Work identified herein.
9. Subcontractor. The Consultant shall not enter into subcontracts for services provided
under this Agreement except as noted in the Scope of Work, without the express written
consent of the City. The Consultant shall pay any subcontractor involved in the
performance of this Agreement within ten (10) days of the Consultant's receipt of payment
by the City for undisputed services provided by the subcontractor. If the Consultant fails
within that time to pay the subcontractor any undisputed amount for which the Consultant
has received payment by the City, the Consultant shall pay interest to the subcontractor on
the unpaid amount at the rate of 1.5 percent per month or any part of a month. The
minimum monthly interest penalty payment for an unpaid balance of $100 or more is $10.
Page 4 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
For an unpaid balance of less than $100, the Consultant shall pay the actual interest penalty
due to the subcontractor. A subcontractor who prevails in a civil action to collect interest
penalties from the Consultant shall be awarded its costs and disbursements, including
attorney's fees, incurred in bringing the action.
10. Independent Consultant. Consultant is an independent contractor engaged by City to
perform the services described herein and as such (i) shall employ such persons as it shall
deem necessary and appropriate for the performance of its obligations pursuant to this
Agreement, who shall be employees, and under the direction, of Consultant and in no
respect employees of City, and (ii) shall have no authority to employ persons, or make
purchases of equipment on behalf of City, or otherwise bind or obligate City. No statement
herein shall be construed so as to find the Consultant an employee of the City.
11. Insurance.
a. General Liability. Prior to starting the Work, Consultant shall procure, maintain and
pay for such insurance as will protect against claims or loss which may arise out of
operations by Consultant or by any subcontractor or by anyone employed by any of
them or by anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable. Such insurance shall
include, but not be limited to, minimum coverages and limits of liability specified in
this Paragraph, or required by law.
b. If Consultant’s insurance does not afford coverage on behalf of subcontractors,
Consultant must require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting
all the requirements of this paragraph 11, and Consultant must include in its contract
with subcontractors the requirement that the City be listed as an additional insured on
insurance required from subcontractors. In such case, prior to a subcontractor
performing any Work covered by this Agreement, Consultant must: (i) provide the City
with a certificate of insurance issued by the subcontractor’s insurance agent indicating
that the City is an additional insured on the subcontractor’s insurance policy; and (ii)
submit to the City a copy of Consultant’s agreement with the subcontractor for purposes
of the City’s review of compliance with the requirements of this paragraph 11.
c. Consultant shall procure and maintain the following minimum insurance coverages and
limits of liability for the Work:
Worker’s Compensation Statutory Limits
Employer’s Liability $500,000 each accident
$500,000 disease policy limit
$500,000 disease each employee
Commercial General $1,000,000 property damage and bodily
Liability injury per occurrence
$2,000,000 general aggregate

Comprehensive Automobile
Liability $1,000,000 combined single limit each accident

d. Commercial General Liability. The Commercial General Liability Policy shall be on
ISO form CG 00 01 12 07 or CG 00 01 04 13, or the equivalent. Such insurance shall
cover liability arising from premises, operations, independent contractors, products-
completed operations, personal and advertising injury, and liability assumed under an
insured contract (including the tort liability of another assumed in a business contract).
There shall be no endorsement or modification of the Commercial General Liability
form arising from pollution, explosion, collapse, underground property damage or
work performed by subcontractors.
e. Professional Liability Insurance. In addition to the coverages listed above, Consultant
shall maintain a professional liability insurance policy in the amount of $2,000,000 per
claim and annual aggregate. Said policy need not name the City as an additional
insured. It shall be Consultant’s responsibility to pay any retention or deductible for
the professional liability insurance. Consultant agrees to maintain the professional
liability insurance for a minimum of two (2) years following termination of this
Agreement.
f. Consultant shall maintain “stop gap” coverage if Consultant obtains Workers’
Compensation coverage from any state fund if Employer’s liability coverage is not
available.
g. All policies, except the Worker’s Compensation Policy, Automobile Policy, and
Professional Liability Policy, shall name the “City of Eden Prairie” as an additional
insured including products and completed operations.
h. All policies, except the Professional Liability Policy, shall apply on a “per project”
basis.
i. All General Liability policies, Automobile Liability policies and Umbrella policies
shall contain a waiver of subrogation in favor of the City.
j. All policies, except for the Worker’s Compensation Policy and the Professional
Liability Policy, shall be primary and non-contributory.
k. All polices, except the Worker’s Compensation Policy and the Professional Liability
Policy, shall insure the defense and indemnity obligations assumed by Consultant under
Page 6 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
this Agreement. The Professional Liability policy shall insure the indemnity
obligations assumed by Consultant under this Agreement except with respect to the
liability for loss or damage resulting from the negligence or fault of anyone other than
the Consultant or others for whom the Consultant is legally liable.
l. Consultant agrees to maintain all coverage required herein throughout the term of the
Agreement and for a minimum of two (2) years following City’s written acceptance of
the Work.
m. It shall be Consultant’s responsibility to pay any retention or deductible for the
coverages required herein.
n. All policies shall contain a provision or endorsement that coverages afforded
thereunder shall not be cancelled or non-renewed or restrictive modifications added,
without thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the City, except that if the cancellation or non-
renewal is due to non-payment, the coverages may not be terminated or non-renewed
without ten (10) days’ prior notice to the City.
o. Consultant shall maintain in effect all insurance coverages required under this
Paragraph at Consultant’s sole expense and with insurance companies licensed to do
business in the state in Minnesota and having a current A.M. Best rating of no less than
A-, unless specifically accepted by City in writing.
p. A copy of the Consultant’s Certificate of Insurance which evidences the
compliance with this Paragraph, must be filed with City prior to the start of
Consultant’s Work. Upon request a copy of the Consultant’s insurance declaration
page, Rider and/or Endorsement, as applicable shall be provided. Such documents
evidencing Insurance shall be in a form acceptable to City and shall provide satisfactory
evidence that Consultant has complied with all insurance requirements. Renewal
certificates shall be provided to City prior to the expiration date of any of the required
policies. City will not be obligated, however, to review such Certificate of Insurance,
declaration page, Rider, Endorsement or certificates or other evidence of insurance, or
to advise Consultant of any deficiencies in such documents and receipt thereof shall
not relieve Consultant from, nor be deemed a waiver of, City’s right to enforce the
terms of Consultant’s obligations hereunder. City reserves the right to examine any
policy provided for under this paragraph.
q. Effect of Consultant’s Failure to Provide Insurance. If Consultant fails to provide
the specified insurance, then Consultant will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the
City, the City's officials, agents and employees from any loss, claim, liability and expense
(including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses of litigation) to the extent necessary
to afford the same protection as would have been provided by the specified insurance.
Except to the extent prohibited by law, this indemnity applies regardless of any strict
liability or negligence attributable to the City (including sole negligence) and regardless
of the extent to which the underlying occurrence (i.e., the event giving rise to a claim
which would have been covered by the specified insurance) is attributable to the
Page 7 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
negligent or otherwise wrongful act or omission (including breach of contract) of
Consultant, its subcontractors, agents, employees or delegates. Consultant agrees that
this indemnity shall be construed and applied in favor of indemnification. Consultant
also agrees that if applicable law limits or precludes any aspect of this indemnity, then
the indemnity will be considered limited only to the extent necessary to comply with that
applicable law. The stated indemnity continues until all applicable statutes of limitation
have run.
If a claim arises within the scope of the stated indemnity, the City may require Consultant
to:
i. Furnish and pay for a surety bond, satisfactory to the City, guaranteeing
performance of the indemnity obligation; or
ii. Furnish a written acceptance of tender of defense and indemnity from
Consultant's insurance company.
Consultant will take the action required by the City within fifteen (15) days of receiving
notice from the City.
12. Indemnification. Consultant will defend and indemnify City, its officers, agents, and
employees and hold them harmless from and against all judgments, claims, damages, costs
and expenses, including a reasonable amount as and for its attorney’s fees paid, incurred
or for which it may be liable resulting from any breach of this Agreement by Consultant,
its agents, contractors and employees, or any negligent or intentional act or omission
performed, taken or not performed or taken by Consultant, its agents, contractors and
employees, relative to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Consultant’s
obligation to defend the City will not apply to claims covered by Consultant’s professional
liability insurance. City will indemnify and hold Consultant harmless from and against any
loss for injuries or damages arising out of the negligent acts of the City, its officers, agents
or employees.
13. Ownership of Documents. All plans, diagrams, analyses, reports and information
generated in connection with the performance of the Agreement (“Information”) shall
become the property of the City, but Consultant may retain copies of such documents as
records of the services provided. The City may use the Information for its purposes and the
Consultant also may use the Information for its purposes. Use of the Information for the
purposes of the project contemplated by this Agreement (“Project”) does not relieve any
liability on the part of the Consultant, but any use of the Information by the City or the
Consultant beyond the scope of the Project is without liability to the other, and the party
using the Information agrees to defend and indemnify the other from any claims or liability
resulting therefrom.
14. Mediation. Each dispute, claim or controversy arising from or related to this agreement
shall be subject to mediation as a condition precedent to initiating legal or equitable actions
by either party. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the mediation shall be in accordance
with the Commercial Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association then
currently in effect. A request for mediation shall be provided to the other party. No
Page 8 of 10 (rev. 6/2024)
arbitration or legal or equitable action may be instituted for a period of 90 days from the
filing of the request for mediation unless a longer period of time is provided by agreement
of the parties. Cost of mediation shall be shared equally between the parties. Mediation
shall be held in the City of Eden Prairie unless another location is mutually agreed upon
by the parties. The parties shall memorialize any agreement resulting from the mediation
in a mediated settlement agreement, which agreement shall be enforceable as a settlement
in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
15. Assignment. Neither party shall assign this Agreement, nor any interest arising herein,
without the written consent of the other party.
16. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. In providing services hereunder, the
Consultant shall abide by statutes, ordinances, rules, and regulations pertaining to the
provisions of services to be provided. Any violation of statutes, ordinances, rules and
regulations pertaining to the services to be provided shall constitute a material breach of
this Agreement and entitle the City to immediately terminate this Agreement.
17. Conflicts. No salaried officer or employee of the City and no member of the Council of
the City shall have a financial interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement. The violation
of this provision renders the Agreement void.
18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which
shall be considered an original.
19. Damages. In the event of a breach of this Agreement, neither party shall be entitled to

ITEM DESCRIPTION
Renew 3-year agreement for VMWare Vsphere – virtual server management.
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to: Approve the 3-year agreement with Broadcom for VMWare - VSphere license and
maintenance for $116,983.62.
SUMMARY
The City of Eden Prairie uses VMWare Sphere virtualization platform for management of virtual
server environment. Following the acquisition of VMWare by Broadcom, the annual
maintenance cost for Vsphere has increased multifold. The IT Division has reviewed other
solutions this year including hosting at Logis, and products including Nutanix and VergeIO.
Based on the additional costs of setting up a new hypervisor environment and comparing that
with the reliability with the existing solution, the IT division recommends renewing a 3-year
agreement with Broadcom for VSphere for an annual cost of $38,994.54 and continue to
evaluate options as they evolve.

City Council Agenda Cover Memo
Date: Jan. 6, 2026
Section: Public Hearing
Item Number: VIII.A.
Department: Community Development / Planning
Julie Klima / Sarah Strain
ITEM DESCRIPTION
Pope Design Group, representing Wings Financial Credit Union, is proposing to construct a
3,271 square foot building in the northwest corner of the Cub Foods parking lot at 8015 Den
Road and is requesting site plan approval. The proposed site plan includes a drive-thru for an
XTM machine.
REQUESTED ACTION
Move to:
• Close the public hearing, and
• Direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Staff and Commission
recommendations and Council conditions; and
• Authorize the issuance of an early Land Alteration Permit for Wings Financial Credit
Union at the request of the Developer subject to the conditions outlined in the
permit.
SUMMARY
The property is zoned Commercial Regional Services (C-REG-SER) and is guided Regional
Commercial in the Comprehensive Guide Plan. The site is just over 9 acres in size. Cub Foods is
owned by Jerry’s Foods, not to be confused with the Jerry’s Foods location at 9605 Anderson
Lakes Parkway. All City Code requirements are met, and no Planned Unit Development waivers
are requested for this Site Plan Review.
Site Plan
Wings Financial Credit Union is proposing to build a new, 3,271 square foot building in the
northwest corner of the Cub Foods parking lot. The building meets or exceeds the building
material standards on all façades, being primarily made of brick and glass. There will be one (1)
interactive teller machine (XTM) separate from the building. The XTM functions like a
traditional ATM but also features video and audio capabilities, allowing customers to conduct
full-service banking by speaking with a remote teller. The drive-thru lane accommodates up to
three (3) stacked vehicles, exceeding the anticipated peak demand of two (2) vehicles.
The property is in the Shoreland Overlay District as it is located within 1,000 feet of Anderson
Lake. When the site was developed in the early 1990s, a variance was granted for the site to
exceed the 30 percent impervious surface coverage maximum allowed by City Code. The
variance is still valid, and the proposed work falls within the impervious surface allowance
approved by the variance. The proposed work does not reach the threshold for City stormwater
requirements.
Parking
The site currently has 430 parking stalls, exceeding City Code requirements. The proposed infill
development will remove 53 stalls. City Code requires Wings Financial Credit Union to have 17
parking spaces and Cub Foods to have 330 parking spaces based on the proposed uses and
building sizes, totaling 347 parking stalls required for the site. The proposed site plan provides
375 parking spaces, exceeding City Code requirements.
Resident Comments
Prior to the Planning Commission meeting, staff heard from four (4) residents concerned with
tree removal along Den Road. The stated concern is the loss of large trees that provide a visual
screen of the parking lot. The Wings Credit Union building will provide screening of the parking
lot from Den Road. The removed trees are being replaced on a 1-for-1 basis, in accordance with
the City’s tree preservation requirements.
Some of the residents were also concerned with future traffic circulation. Based on their
personal experience in the Jerry’s Foods off Anderson Lakes Parkway, the residents said it can
be dangerous or confusing to navigate Jerry’s Foods parking lot and are concerned that similar
infill in another grocery store parking lot will also have circulation problems. Staff has reviewed
the traffic memo and does not anticipate traffic issues with the proposed Wings development.
Planning Commission Review and Recommendation
At their December 8, 2025 meeting, the Planning Commission voted 9-0 to recommend that the
City Council approve the project. The recommendation of approval was conditioned upon the
applicant revising the plans to include an ADA compliant pedestrian pathway in the parking lot
connecting the Cub Food building to the Wings Building and existing sidewalk on Den Road and
ensuring all new parking lot islands meet the minimum requirements. Additional information
regarding the Cross Access, Parking, and Utility Easement between Cub Foods and Wings Credit
Union and the Stormwater Report was also requested. The revisions have been made to staff’s
satisfaction, and the requested information has been provided, satisfying the recommended
conditions of the Planning Commission.
The 120-day review period expires on February 20, 2026.

ITEM DESCRIPTION
Pope Design Group, representing Wings Federal Credit Union, is proposing to construct a 3,271
square foot building in the northwest corner of the Cub Foods parking lot at 8015 Den Road.
The proposed site plan includes a drive-thru for an XTM machine.
REQUESTED ACTIONS
• Site Plan Review on 9.08 acres
BACKGROUND
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND ZONING
The property is zoned Commercial Regional
Services (C-REG-SER) and is guided Regional
Commercial in the Comprehensive Guide
Plan. A credit union is a permitted commercial
use. The property is also part of the Shoreland
Overlay District as it is located within 1,000
feet of Anderson Lake.
SITE PLAN
8015 Den Road is surrounded by commercial
uses to the north and west, office uses across
both Prairie Center Drive and W 78th Street,
and Eden Prairie Center to the south.
Wings Federal Credit Union is proposing to
build a new, 3,271 square foot building in the
northwest corner of the Cub Foods parking
lot. There will be 13 parking stalls oriented to
directly support the credit union.
There will be one (1) interactive teller
machine (XTM) separate from the main
Staff Report – Wings Federal Credit Union December 8, 2025 Page 2 building. The XTM functions similar to a traditional ATM but also features video and audio
capabilities, allowing customers to conduct full-service banking by speaking directly with a teller
based at the Wings Credit Union location in Apple Valley. The drive-thru lane accommodates up
to three (3) stacked vehicles, which exceeds the anticipated peak demand of two (2) vehicles.
The XTM video and audio capabilities will be available 12 hours a day, and the ATM feature will
be available 24 hours a day.
The proposed site plan complies with all zoning and performance standards.
ACCESS AND STREET CONNECTIONS
The site, which includes the Cub Foods, has two (2) driveway accesses on Den Road for
customers. Another access on W. 78th Street is for delivery vehicles only. There are no proposed
changes to the driveway access points. A sidewalk connection will be installed to connect the
existing sidewalk along Den Road to the Wings Credit Union building.
TRAFFIC STUDY
A traffic impact memo was prepared to determine the impact of the new Wings building on traffic
patterns in the area. The memo found the proposed development will have minimal impact on
traffic levels on Den Road and nearby intersections. The XTM offers services from a bank teller
for 12 hours a day, compared to the typical eight (8) hours of a bank drive-thru. This allows trips
to be spread throughout the day, decreasing peak time trip demands. The memo also noted that
Wings and Cub Foods have differing peak times. Cub Foods experiences more traffic on weekend
days, while Wings Credit Union is open on Saturday mornings only. ATM features will still be
available on weekend days.
PARKING
The site currently has 430 parking stalls, exceeding City Code requirements. The proposed infill
development will remove 53 stalls. City Code requires Wings Federal Credit Union to have 17
parking spaces and Cub Foods to have 330 parking spaces based on the proposed uses and
building sizes, totaling 347 parking stalls required for the site. The proposed site plan provides
377 parking spaces, exceeding City Code requirements.
As part of the site work, parking lot islands will be installed along the northern and western rows
of parking to further align the site with City Code requirements for parking lot islands. Prior to
the public hearing at City Council, the applicant will confirm all new parking islands meet the size
requirements outlined in City Code.
SIDEWALKS AND TRAILS
There is an existing sidewalk along Den Road. The applicant will be installing a sidewalk
connection from the sidewalk on Den Road into the site to connect to Wings Federal Credit Union.
An ADA compliant marked pedestrian pathway will be added in the parking lot to provide a clear
pedestrian path to the front of Cub Foods. While this site feature is not shown on the Site Plan
sheet, it is included in the Curb Island Plan and has been part of ongoing conversations between
staff and the applicant. Prior to the 1st City Council meeting, the pedestrian pathway in the
parking lot connecting Cub Food to Wings Federal Credit Union and existing sidewalk on Den
Road will need to be provided on all plan sheets.
Staff Report – Wings Federal Credit Union December 8, 2025 Page 3
BUILDING ARCHITECTURE AND MATERIALS
The proposed building meets the architectural standards for material variety and meets or
exceeds the Class I/Class II materials ratio on all façades. The majority of the building is glass.
The glass above the door/first floor height will be tinted grey. The glass at the ground floor level
will be transparent to meet Code requirements for transparency and provide connection to the
surrounding area.
A column on the west side of the building will be metal and colored blue to match the Wings
branding. The sign is proposed to be located below the roofline, as rooftop signs are prohibited
in City Code.
SHORELAND
The property is in the Shoreland Overlay District as it is located within 1,000 feet of Anderson
Lake. When the site was originally developed in the early 1990s, a variance was granted to exceed
the 30 percent impervious surface coverage maximum allowed by City Code. The variance is still
valid, and the proposed work falls within the impervious surface allowance approved by the
variance. This project will be decreasing the amount of impervious surface on the site by
approximately 4,000 square feet by installing additional parking lot islands throughout the site.
DRAINAGE/STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
The site is in the Riley Purgatory Bluff Creek Watershed District and will require permitting and
approval from the Watershed District. To meet these requirements, chambers will be installed
underneath the parking lot and drive lanes near the Wings building. The site is disturbing less
than one (1) acre of land, so City stormwater management rules do not apply to this project. Staff
reviewed stormwater related materials and plans for informational purposes.
UTILITIES
The Wings building will connect to sewer and water through connections available in Den Road.
There is sufficient capacity to support the proposed use.
Staff Report – Wings Federal Credit Union December 8, 2025 Page 4 TREE LOSS AND GRADING
The applicant is proposing to remove six (6) trees along Den Road, south of the northern driveway
entrance to the site. The removal of these trees is needed to provide sufficient space to install
the building foundation, sewer lines, and other utility infrastructure. The removals are also
needed to accommodate site improvements, including a new pedestrian sidewalk connection
from Den Road to both Wings Credit Union and Cub Foods as well as bicycle parking.
These trees were planted as part of the Cub Foods original site plan to meet code requirements.
In accordance with the City's tree preservation requirements, each removed tree will be replaced
with one (1) new tree onsite.
LANDSCAPING AND TREE REPLACEMENT PLAN
City Code requires commercial and industrial buildings taller than 20 feet to double the
landscaping requirement from the Code required formula to offset the mass of the building. The
proposed building height exceeds 20 feet, meaning 20.4 caliper inches of landscaping are
required in addition to tree replacement. The proposed landscaping and tree replacement plan
meet City Code requirements.
SUSTAINABILITY
The project is not required to meet the Sustainable Building Standards. However, the building
will provide sustainable features such as, utilizing Energy Star rated appliances in the
breakroom and waiting area, LED fixtures, and recycling services. The tinted glass on the upper
portions of the building will also offer heating and cooling efficiency.
SIGNS
The architectural plans provide details on the wall and freestanding signs proposed for Wings
Federal Credit Union. The proposed signage as depicted meets City Code requirements for
commercial zoned properties. Signs will require sign permit and building permit review. Code
compliance will be confirmed at the time of permitting.
OTHER AGENCY OR MUNICIPALITY COMMENTS
To date, no outside agencies or municipalities have provided comment on the proposed site plan.
NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING AND RESIDENT INPUT
To date, staff has heard from four (4) residents concerned with tree removal along Den Road.
The concern is the loss of large trees that provide a visual screen of the parking lot. The Wings
Credit Union building will provide screening of the parking lot from Den Road. The removed trees
are being replaced on a 1-for-1 basis, in accordance with the City’s tree preservation
requirements.
Some of the residents were also concerned with future traffic circulation. Two (2) residents
shared that they live near Jerry’s Foods, which has recently seen infill development in the parking
lot. Jerry’s Foods is located at 9605 Anderson Lakes Parkway. The site has approximately the
same acreage as the Cub Foods site and contains a grocery store with an attached retail center
and two (2) separate restaurant/retail buildings, each with their own drive-thru. The residents
shared it can be dangerous or confusing to navigate Jerry’s Foods parking lot and are concerned
Staff Report – Wings Federal Credit Union December 8, 2025 Page 5 that similar infill development in another grocery store parking lot will also have circulation
problems. Staff has reviewed the traffic memo and does not anticipate circulation or traffic issues
with the proposed Wings development. Banks typically have lower traffic volumes than retail and
food services, and the Cub Foods site has fewer retailers and restaurants than the Jerry’s Foods
site. Further, the new parking lot islands installed as part of this project will help guide traffic
through the parking lot.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION

November 17, 2025, the December 8, 2025 staff report, and the following conditions of
approval.

A. Wings Financial Credit Union (2025-10)
• Site Plan Review on 9.08 acres
Hans Schmidt, architect with Pope Design Group, displayed slides and detailed
the application. He introduced the Wings Financial Credit Union and described its
history in Eden Prairie, a breakdown of age ranges of clients, and the proposal.
The application requested the construction of a 3,271 square foot building in the
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
December 8, 2025
Page 2
northwest corner of the Cub Foods parking lot at 8015 Den Road. Similar designs
had been successful elsewhere. No existing accesses would be changed, but
utilized and improved. Wings had a land lease agreement with Jerry’s foods
(owner of the subject property), and the existing parcel would not be subdivided.
A new PID will be created through a CIC process. The project will be privately
funded.
The Wings branch would be ready for construction upon approval, with
occupancy during the summer of 2026. The property was zoned Regional Service
Commercial and the land use as Regional Commercial and was not in a flood
plain or wetland area and had no archeological or cultural significance.
The new Eden Prairie branch would have a state of art four-sided architecture
utilizing Class One materials. There would be extended hours for live teller drive
plus a full-service branch. The building design was adapted to complement Cub
Foods and meeting the requirements of the City Ordinance. This would result in
a reduction of impervious area while meeting parking requirements. The single
lane interactive teller machine would accommodate up to three stacked
vehicles, exceeding the anticipated peak demand of two vehicles. The XTM
would function like a traditional ATM but also provide video and audio
connections to a teller in Apple Valley and would be available 12 hours daily,
compared to 8 hours for traditional teller service. The ATM would of course be
available 24/7. This system distributed services more evenly throughout the day
and evening, rather than concentrating them during working hours.
There would be shared parking with Cub Foods, seven stalls immediately
adjacent to the branch building, including two being accessible, and a bike rack
plus improved pedestrian access. The project required the removal of six trees
onsite to accommodate the building and provide renewed growth from a
landscape perspective. The development would replant more trees than the
number being removed.
The pilon sign would be located to the side as a signature element, since
overhead signs were prohibited. Schmidt showed the examples of the similar
Maple Grove, Northfield, Baxter and Rochester branches. With the XTM lane
located perpendicular to the flow of traffic, there would be little car stacking. A
study on current XTM usage showed an average transaction time of 2.5 to three
minutes, average daily transactions were 61, with two to five transactions per
hour.
Pieper asked for and received clarification that Jerry’s Foods owned Cub Foods.
Taylor asked for and received confirmation that other locations had been
considered, including the parking lot at the Mall and at Best Buy.
Duncan asked for times of XTMs verses ATMs. Tom Schuenke, Vice President of
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
December 8, 2025
Page 3
Wings Real Estate, replied customers could complete more transactions much
more quickly with an XTM. Drive up services were on the downswing.
Farr stated he was concerned about queuing and stacking into the drive aisle for
Cub Foods and suggested the entire XTM island could be rotated 180 degrees to
allow all customers to enter west to east instead of east to west and facing north
away from the winter sun. Schmidt replied several scenarios were explored, and
stated this configuration for several reasons: drivers leaving the ATM were often
distracted which was a potential hazard going immediately into a major artery;
flipping the design would significantly increase traffic through the parking lot,
requiring a U-turn; with the ages of people conducting business in this area, he
wished to keep the parking lot’s congestion down. Farr countered the traffic
could go through the south loop in a clockwise direction to reach the island.
Schmidt offered to correspond offline on this issue.
Farr commended the design and asked what had happened to the horizontal
sunshade louvers. Schuenke replied they had been removed in favor of tinted
film glass. The blue shade came from the interior LED lighting.
Taylor asked for and received confirmation the XTMs allowed pedestrian walk-
ups, although Schenke said he had never seen an example of this.
Barnhart presented the staff report. The project met all design and zoning
standards, and there were no waivers, as there had been when it was originally
developed. The impervious surface would be reduced by 4,000 square feet and
the design would use the existing circulation network and accesses. The parking
plan exceeded requirements. Staff had received comments from area residents
regarding the loss of trees: tree loss was unavoidable due to utility and building
construction, the trees installed were not for specific screening requirements the
trees were not installed at the original development for screening and had to be
lost due to utility installation. The trees replaced would be adjacent to the
building and the parking lot.
Other comments staff received expressed concerns with internal circulation
based on experiences with the other Jerry’s parking lot with the Chipotle and the
Starbucks on Hennepin Town Road. Staff is confident that the parking lot plan
will help direct traffic through the parking lot. There would be a pedestrian
pathway sidewalk along Den Road and Cub Foods. This was similar to the Lunds
and Byerly’s projects when Culver’s was added and to the other Jerry’s Foods
development.
Minor tweaks needed were outlined in the staff report. The access pathway
concern was included as part of the recommended motion to be addressed by
City Council. Staff recommended approval subject to the conditions outlined in
the staff report.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
December 8, 2025

Duncan asked why sustainability standards were not required. Barnhart replied
they were only required for developments requesting a PUD and over 10,000
square feet, but staff always encouraged developers to add them. Duncan
commended the landscape design. She asked why the variance was allowed to
stay with the site plan. Barnhart replied a variance applies to the lot, not to the
applicant. Also, this applicant was decreasing impervious surface so that variance
did not even apply.
Farr stated he did not see the six trees slated for removal in the landscape plan
and asked what kind they were. Barnhart replied there were spruce and
deciduous trees included. Bourne stated these were crab apples, locust/maple
and pines, which would be replaced with similar species.
Farr asked if staff would support having a dialogue with the applicant on rotating
the circulation. Barnhart replied a motion to flip the pathway be explored further
before the application went before the City Council, but the commission should
try to avoid redesigning the site. Taylor asked Farr to clarify his concern. Farr
stated if there was a stacking of more than two cars it could block the access to
Cub Foods and felt the flip would solve a few problems at the same time with no
downside. Taylor asked for and received clarification this would move the XTM
to the east side of Dell Lane.
Barnhart suggested the commission agree on a concern rather than on a
solution. Kirk stated he shared Farr’s concern and commended the expertise on
this commission to recommend ideas but also agreed it was the applicant’s job
to make any redesign. He saw both points of view (Farr’s and the applicant’s).
Duncan asked for the City Engineer’s opinion, and Schultze replied he had tried
the 180 rotation himself with the applicant. The egress into a major artery was
the applicant’s concern then as well. There was a curb that separated the XTM
land from the other lane requiring a U-turn and creating more traffic in the
space, with cars potentially backing up into each other. He understood Farr’s
point, but he was not so concerned with the stacking. In addition, the expected
speeds were less than 30 miles an hour. The flipped design could force more cars
into that space. In response to Duncan’s question about a stacked fourth car he
stated there could be a two-minute wait for a fourth car, should that happen,
which would not be detrimental to the flow of traffic.
MOTION: Duncan moved, seconded by Kirk, to close the public hearing. Motion
carried 9-0.
Farr stated the concern regarding stacking and the suggested rotation of the
XTM location would be reflected in the minutes, with staff aware of it as well,
and this did not have to be discussed further. Kirk agreed.

City Council Agenda Cover Memo
Date: January 6, 2026
Section: Public Hearing
Item Number: VIII.B.
Department: Community Development/Planning
Beth Novak-Krebs, Senior Planner
ITEM DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting approval to add a 552 square foot addition onto the existing building
in the southeast corner of the Prairie Village Shopping Center, in support of a proposed Daves
Hot Chicken restaurant. The proposed restaurant is 2,016 sq ft, and a veterinarian clinic currently
occupies 5,868 sq ft of the existing 7,884 square foot building. The addition is for a 3-season
outdoor dining area off the west side of the building. The proposal does not include a drive-
through. The addition will extend into 3 of the existing parking stalls on the west side of the
building. Along with the site modifications, the applicant is proposing a lot line adjustment to
increase the size of the current lot to include the addition.
REQUESTED ACTIONS
Move to:
• Close the Public Hearing, and,
• Direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement for Prairie Village SE Building incorporating
Staff and Council conditions.
SUMMARY
The building addition is less than 10% of the gross floor area of the building and complies with
Code; therefore, the project is considered a Minor Amendment to the approved Site Plan and
only requires review and approval by the City Council. A minor amendment is not reviewed by
the Planning Commission. When the building was approved, one of the conditions was that any
restaurant use require Site Plan approval from the Council.
Staff report – Prairie Village SE Building Page 2 The property is located at 16490
78th St W. The building is part of
the overall Prairie Village
Shopping Center, but it is located
on its own lot in the southeast
corner of the shopping center.
SITE PLAN
The applicant is proposing to
occupy approximately 2,016
square feet of space on the west
side of the building in the
southeast corner of the shopping
center and add a 552 square foot
3-season addition off the west
side for additional seating. The
proposed use does not include a
drive through.
The proposed addition results in loss of a sidewalk and three existing parking stalls.
Prairie Village Shopping Center
Project Site Eden Prairie Road Proposed Restaurant Existing Veterinarian
Proposed
3-Season Addition
Staff report – Prairie Village SE Building Page 3
LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT
The lot line adjustment is an Administrative Review requiring staff review and approval rather
than a preliminary plat as originally submitted. The lot line adjustment complies with the setbacks
approved by a variance in 1993. The applicant is proposing to adjust the north and west lot lines
to encompass the parking stalls adjacent to the north side of the building and the addition and
parking on the west side of the building. The lot is currently 0.23 acres. The new lot is proposed
at 0.36 acres. The site plan approval would be contingent on approval of the lot line adjustment.
ACCESS
Access to the overall shopping center, including the subject building, is located at the traffic signal
at Eden Prairie Road and Wagner Way, a driveway onto Eden Prairie Road approximately 165 feet
north of the traffic signal, and Main Street on the west side of the property. Once inside the
shopping center property, cars maneuver through a large parking lot.
TRAFFIC STUDY
A traffic study was conducted to determine if the surrounding road system and Eden Prairie
Village parking lot can support the new use on the site. While the primary impetus of the study
was to review impact from Dave's Hot Chicken, trips from the adjacent vet clinic were also
incorporated. The proposed redevelopment is expected to generate approximately 46 a.m. peak
hour, 207 midday peak hour, 134 p.m. peak hour, and 1,543 daily trips. The previous building use
as a MedExpress generated 247 daily trips, resulting in a net increase of trips to 1,269 per day.
The traffic study concluded that the surrounding roadway network (Eden Prairie Road/County
Road 4 and Trunk Highway 5) can accommodate the additional traffic from this development and
still operate acceptably. However, the study also found existing traffic operations within the site
often result in congestion and can cause backups mainly due to vehicle drop-offs, pedestrian
crossings, and the proximity of parking lot lanes to the Eden Prairie Road and Wagner Way
intersection.
The analysis included review of several days of video footage of the site to review operations.
Observations revealed a few concerns that will be addressed with minor changes to the site and
adjacent traffic signal timing:
• Vehicles entering the site from Eden Prairie Road can be slowed down or stopped when
entering due to vehicles using the first drive aisle to the north parking lot. The property
owner will convert this aisle to exit-only to address this issue.
• Vehicles were observed stopping in front of the Kowalski's entrance mainly to wait for
pedestrians to cross or perform a drop-off or pickup. The property owner will install
signage and striping to prohibit and mitigate drop-offs or pickups.
• Eden Prairie Road/County Road 4 northbound left turn lane into the site experiences a
current queue length of about 6 vehicles. Additional trips from the development will
increase this to about 8 vehicles. While this will still be within the available storage length
of the turn lane, it was noted that typically not all vehicles clear and make it into the site
during one green cycle. The study suggested that green time for the northbound left turn
lane be extended by a few seconds. City staff communicated this to Hennepin County and
MnDOT (who respectively own and operate the signal) and they were agreeable to these
changes once the development is complete.
Staff report – Prairie Village SE Building Page 4
While a few traffic operation concerns were revealed, the mitigation strategies outlined in the
study are expected to be sufficient to address them. The study and subsequent development
agreement will include language regarding implementation of an action plan should operations
fall below acceptable levels as determined by the City Engineer. Plan elements will be decided at
that time but could include rerouting traffic into the site to provide more queuing distance and/or
improve free flow of vehicles into the site.
PARKING
The subject building shares parking with the entire shopping center. Parking for the shopping
center complies with City Code requirements.
BUILDING ARCHITECTURE AND MATERIALS
The current building was designed to be consistent with the design and materials of the larger
building in the shopping center. The current building includes predominantly Class I materials on
the exterior including brick and glass with a small amount of metal, which is City Code compliant.
The building addition consists of large glass windows, and stone around the base to match the
existing building. The roof supports are steel, painted a brown color to match the metal coping
at the top of the parapet on the existing building. The building along with the addition complies
with code requirements.
Location of proposed
addition
Staff report – Prairie Village SE Building Page 5 LANDSCAPING AND TREE REPLACEMENT PLAN
The proposed addition requires 2 caliper inches of landscaping. The proposed landscaping meets
the minimum requirements. There have been several trees in parking lot islands, along Highway
5 and along Eden Prairie Road that have been removed since 2020. Staff and the property owner
are working together to replace trees previously lost.

ORDINANCE NO. ____-2026
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA AMENDING CITY CODE CHAPTER 11, SECTION 11.47 RELATING TO SITE PLAN AND ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN REVIEW PROCESS AND ADOPTING BY REFERENCE CITY CODE CHAPTER 1 AND SECTION 11.99 WHICH AMONG OTHER THINGS
CONTAINS PENALTY PROVISIONS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA ORDAINS:
Section 1. City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.47 is amended by deleting Subdivision 4 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
Subd. 4. Application and Level of Review.
A. The owner of property for which approval of a Site Plan and Architectural Design
is required by this subdivision may apply for Site Plan and Architectural Design review and approval by filing an application with the City Planner on the form provided by the City Planner and containing the information required by such form accompanied by a Site Plan and Architectural Design, together with such further
information as may reasonably be required by the City Planner.
The City Planner will determine the level of review required for a new or amended Site Plan and Architectural Design based on the criteria set forth below. The City Planner may determine to refer an application to the City multi-department staff "Development Review Committee" for review and recommendation to the City
Planner. In all cases, a new or amended Site Plan and Architectural Design will not
be approved unless it meets all City Code requirements.
B. The following are considered administrative amendments to an approved Site Plan and Architectural Design and are subject to review and approval by the City Planner:
1. Reduction or reconfiguration of parking.
2. Changes to landscaping type, location and species.
3. Façade remodels or alterations.
4. Expansions, structural alterations, or demolitions that are ten percent (10%) or less of the Gross Floor Area of the building.
C. The following are considered minor amendments to an approved Site Plan and
Architectural Design and are subject to review and consideration for approval by the City Council only without referral to the Planning Commission:
1. Expansions or structural alterations that are ten percent (10%) to fifty percent (50%) of the Gross Floor Area of the building.
2. Demolitions that are ten percent (10%) or more of the Gross Floor Area of
a building that has an approved Site Plan and Architectural Design.
D. No review is required to demolish or reconstruct a structure that has been identified by the Fire Chief, Building Official, or other appropriate City official as a hazardous building or hazardous property so long as the reconstruction is completed in
accordance with an approved Site Plan and Architectural Design and all necessary
permits from the City.

Subject: Code Amendment - Administrative Site Plan Review
From: Sarah Strain, Planner II
ITEM DESCRIPTION
City Code Section 11.47, Subd. 4 establishes the site plan review process for building additions,
façade improvements, and other site alterations. There are three (3) levels of review offered:
administrative review, minor review, which is reviewed by City Council only, and full review,
which requires public hearings with both Planning Commission and City Council.
Staff is proposing an amendment to the Code’s Site Plan Review Process to allow more code-
compliant improvements and alterations to be reviewed administratively and to require a
higher degree of alteration before the project is reviewed by City Council and the Planning
Commission, aligning Eden Prairie with practices in peer cities.
REQUESTED ACTIONS
• Approval of the ordinance as drafted
BACKGROUND
CODE AMENDMENT
Currently in City Code, the only administrative site plan reviews permitted are code-compliant
parking lot configurations and landscaping modifications. Parking lot configurations may include
restriping or reduction in the number of parking spaces, so long as no new impervious surface is
added to the site. Similarly, Minor Site Plan Amendments allow projects to be reviewed by City
Council only, bypassing review and recommendation of the Planning Commission. City Code
currently allows building alterations that are 10% of the GFA or 2,000 square feet, whichever is
less, to be reviewed through a Minor Site Plan Amendment. Façade remodels which are code-
compliant are also allowed to be reviewed by City Council only. All other site improvements
require review by both Planning Commission and City Council, even if the improvements or
alterations meet all City Code requirements.
As part of Eden Prairie’s goals to provide clear communication and efficient, fair processes to all
property owners, staff reviewed City Code and site plan review processes in peer cities and found
that Eden Prairie was the most restrictive in site plan review processes. Requiring minor, code-
compliant projects to be reviewed by Planning Commission and/or City Council adds time and
cost to site improvement projects, such as façade upgrades that meet Code Architectural
Standards and minor, code-compliant building additions.
Staff report – Code Amendment - Administrative Site Plan Review November 17, 2025 Page 2
To align Eden Prairie’s Site Plan Review process with the practices of peer cities, staff is proposing
the attached amendment to the Code’s Site Plan Review Process. Below is a summary of the

These proposed changes would allow some of projects Planning Commission and City Council
have reviewed in recent years to be reviewed administratively. Examples include the pool
addition at the Holiday Inn Express, which added 4% to the GFA, and the Wunderlich addition,
which added 15% to the GFA. Both additions met all City-Code requirements.
Any changes not meeting City Code requirements, needing either a variance or a Planned Unit
Development (PUD) waiver, will require public hearings with Planning Commission and City
Council as currently outlined in City Code. For example, projects like the Menards gate expansion
and Nine Mile Creek Watershed District addition were both small, but both required PUD waivers
or amendments, requiring the full review process with Planning Commission and City Council.
Staff report – Code Amendment - Administrative Site Plan Review November 17, 2025 Page 3 Any property that does not have a site plan, either due to the age of the property or the
redevelopment of the site, will be required to undergo the full Site Plan Review process to
approve a site plan for the site.
There are no proposed changes to the review processes for lot subdivisions, combinations, lot
line adjustments, or telecommunications towers and antenna.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Commission move to recommend to the City Council that City Code
Section 11.47, Subd. 4 be amended as represented in the November 17, 2025 staff report and

A. Code Amendment – Shoreland Ordinance (2025-02CA)
• Amendment to Chapter 11, section 11.50 Shoreland Regulations
Barnhart introduced Patrick Sejkora, Water Resources Engineer for the City of
Eden Prairie, who was presenting in place of Lori Haak, Water Resources
Coordinator. Sekora presented a PowerPoint and detailed the Shoreland
Ordinance Revision. This was Section 11.50 of the City Code under Zoning. The
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
November 17, 2025
Page 2
shoreland zone comprised nearly 50 percent of Eden Prairie with 19 lakes, a
river, and four creeks. A shoreland zone was any land within 1,000 feet of a lake
or within 300 feet of a creek or the river.
The goals of the Shoreland Code Amendment were to comply with State Statute,
align with DNR’s model ordinance (most recently revised in 2022), codify existing
practices, and to repeal and replace the entire Code to ensure consistency and
compliance with the latest DNR/state model and for ease of use and updating.
The main changes were: to add OHWLs (ordinary high water levels), to correct
DNR classifications for streams (from general waters to tributaries or transitions,
to revise water-oriented accessory structures, to add Vegetations Management
Plan requirements, and to refine the definition of “impervious surface.” An
impervious surface would be redefined to allow for a more consistent
application of the Shoreland Code. In agreement with codifying existing practices
and to prevent more variances or waivers, this would be redefined to be 30
percent for all Rural and R-1 zoned parcels, and 70 percent for all others.
Staff recommended approval of the new Ordinance as drafted.
Farr commended the adoption of a common template language from city to city,
which more readily highlighted differences. He noted the Ordinance definition of
the Shoreland Zone as “1,000 feet from lake, pond for flowage,” and asked for
the definition of flowage versus “floodway” used elsewhere in the Amendment.
Sejkora replied the use of flowage came straight from the DNR which did not
include a definition. This was a vestigial term similar to a reservoir that would
not have a practical application within Eden Prairie, having no real counterpart
here, but the Code Amendment would coherently apply to all lakes, ponds,
rivers, and streams within the City. Farr asked for and received confirmation that
only the buffer around lakes and streams or their floodplain comprised the
definition of the Shoreland Zone.
Farr also asked and received confirmation that Subdivision Seven, General
Performance Standards would be applied only to new lots via a platting process,
and not redevelopments. Sejkora added any new use of a riparian lot would not
trigger the requirement of this minimum lot width and would be “grandfathered
in.” Barnhart stated under the Amendment any lot created before January 1,
2026 would be allowed to retain its existing lot area and width. Therefore such
lots would be conforming, not even “legal nonconforming.”
Farr stated that a table Subdivision Seven E.1-D regarding additional structure
setbacks listed a top-of-bluff setback, a cemetery setback, and right-of-way
setbacks. He thought this information could be included in the Performance
Standards section. Sejkora agreed, stating in most cases this would be
administrated for the rear yard and other right-of-way setbacks codified
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
November 17, 2025

elsewhere are more restrictive. There were different setbacks for the right-of-
way for all but the Town Center and TOD zoning districts, which were more
restrictive than the Shoreland District. In most cases, residents would find the
relevant information where they would most likely look for it, and staff would
work with developers in those cases where the section applied. Farr suggested
including a footnote to link the two sections together.
Pieper asked if there were sections in the Eden Prairie Code Amendment that
were more restrictive than the DNR’s, and Sejkora replied there were, such as
setbacks from ordinary high waters and lot widths, with the inclusion of entire
bluffs, and in the application of the Shoreland Code itself. Under the DNR the
Shoreland ended where the buffer ended, but Eden Prairie’s longstanding
practice was to apply the Shoreland Code the entirety of any parcel that is
touched by the buffer. There were other examples in terms of clearing and
applications to all structures rather than just to principal structures. This aligned
with codifying of existing practices.

B. Code Amendment – Shoreland Ordinance (2025-03CA)
• Amendment to Chapter 11, section 11.47 related to site plan approval
Barnhart presented a PowerPoint and detailed the Amendment clarifying the
review process for most projects in Eden Prairie. There would be no changes to
the subdivision process, but would simply the process for simpler site plan
projects. The Ordinance would have conforming projects reviewed by staff and
approved via an administrative process; nonconforming projects would go
through the Planning Commission and City Council review process. The
administrative process included a site plan review committee that met weekly,
including engineers, planners, fire department personnel, landscaping staff, et
cetera.
In a significant change, conforming building expansions up to 10 percent of the
gross floor area (GFA) would be reviewed by staff; the City Council (and not the
Planning Commission) would review all expansions that were 10-50 percent of
the gross floor area, and the full review including the Planning Commission and
the City Council would review all larger percentages. This paralleled demolitions
which received site plan approvals, but these often were part of a larger project
which would be part of the full review process. Barnhart cited 7965 Wallace
Road (a façade change) and the Holiday Inn Express Pool Addition (a four percent

gross full area expansion) as examples of what would be approved by staff.
Barnhart recommended approval of the Ordinance change as drafted.
Kirk asked for and received confirmation the City Council review without the
involvement of the Planning Commission would still be a public hearing, as was
presently done for the full review (City Council and Planning Commission).
Farr commended the reduction of red tape in this Ordinance change. Farr
suggested a simpler process offering two different choices rather than a three-
tiered process; including the Planning Commission in all greater than 10 percent
GFA expansions, or having these decided only by the City Council, would satisfy
him.
MOTION: Grote moved, seconded by Farr, to close the public hearing. Motion
carried 7-0.
Taylor commended the expedition of future projects.

ITEM DESCRIPTION
The Ordinance amendment aligns the model shoreland ordinance (2022) of the Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and the Eden Prairie City Code by repealing existing
City Code Section 11.50 in its entirety and replacing it with the new City Code Section 11.50
(Attachment 1).
REQUESTED ACTION
Close public hearing and approve the first reading of an Ordinance repealing City Code Section
11.50 in its entirety and replacing it with new City Code Section 11.50 relating to shoreland
management as attached (Attachment 1).
SUMMARY
The City of Eden Prairie first adopted its shoreland ordinance in 1982. Minor revisions were
made to the shoreland code in 1996 and 2004. In April 2022, DNR issued a new model
shoreland ordinance, with instruction to cities to amend their code to be consistent with the
model. The draft ordinance meets this objective, with modifications accepted by the DNR.
PROPOSED CHANGES TO CODE
In incorporating the DNR’s model ordinance, many of the changes proposed clarify existing
requirements or codify existing practice.
• Provide additional examples of impervious surface in definition, including decks
• Add Ordinary High Water Levels (OHWL) for lakes
• Incorporate correct DNR river and stream classifications
• Allow decreased deck setbacks without a variance under certain conditions
• Align water-oriented accessory structure requirements with DNR standards
• Codify Vegetation Management Plan requirement for work within Shore and Bluff
Impact Zones
• Increase impervious surface limit to 70% for lots not zoned Rural or R-1
DNR REVIEW
City staff met with DNR on March 11, 2024, August 21, 2024, and August 25, 2025. As a result of
the meetings, 4 deliverables (Attachments 3 through 6) were requested by DNR:
1. A tabulation of public ownership of shoreline in Eden Prairie since the City has more
shoreline in public ownership than many surrounding communities;
2. A tabular representation of land use within each waterbody’s shoreland buffer;
3. An analysis of impervious surface coverage within each waterbody’s shoreland buffer;
and
4. A list of proposed deviations from the model ordinance alongside a list of proposed
provisions more stringent than the model ordinance.
Of initial concern to DNR was the proposal to increase the impervious surface limit from 30%
(existing City Code) to 70% for shoreland parcels not zoned Rural or R-1. The City’s history of
shoreland preservation through land and easement acquisition led to protection of water
resources, riparian areas, and shoreland zones uncharacteristic of similarly developed
communities (Attachments 7 through 9). Additionally, many shoreland parcels not zoned Rural
or R-1 have already been developed with higher impervious surface coverage amounts.
Documentation provided by the City addressed DNR concerns, resulting in DNR support of
increased impervious surface limits in areas not zoned Rural or R-1. This will better reflect the
pattern of development that currently exists within the city.
DNR requires local governments to request conditional approval review of near final draft
ordinances. DNR provided Conditional Approval on October 1, 2025.
The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed ordinance on November 17, 2025 and
recommended approval with no changes.

ORDINANCE NO. ____-2026
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA AMENDING CITY CODE CHAPTER 11, SECTION 11.50 RELATING TO SHORELAND MANAGEMENT AND ADOPTING BY REFERENCE CITY CODE CHAPTER 1 AND SECTION 11.99 WHICH AMONG OTHER THINGS CONTAINS PENALTY PROVISIONS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA ORDAINS:
Section 1. City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.50, is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
SECTION 11.50 – SHORELAND MANAGEMENT
Subd. 1. Statutory Authorization and Policy.
A. Statutory Authorization. This section is adopted pursuant to the authorization and policies
contained in Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103F, Minnesota Rules, Parts 6120.2500–6120.3900, and the planning and zoning enabling legislation in Minnesota Statutes Chapter 462.
B. Policy. The Minnesota Legislature has delegated responsibility to local governments of the
state to regulate the subdivision, use, and development of the shorelands of public waters
and thus preserve and enhance the quality of surface waters, conserve the economic and natural environmental values of shorelands, and provide for the wise use of waters and related land resources. This responsibility is hereby recognized by and adopted as the policy of the City of Eden Prairie.
Subd. 2. General Provisions and Definitions.
A. Jurisdiction and Scope. The provisions of this section apply to the shorelands of the public water bodies as classified in subdivision 4. Any lake, pond, or flowage less than 10 acres in size is exempt from the requirements of this section. A body of water created by a private user where there was no previous shoreland may, at the discretion of the City Council, be
exempt from this section.
B. Enforcement. The City is responsible for the administration and enforcement of this section. Any violation of the provisions of this section or failure to comply with any of its requirements (including violations of conditions and safeguards established in connection with grants of variances) constitutes a misdemeanor and is punishable as defined by law.
C. Severability. If any subdivision, clause, provision, or portion of this section is adjudged
unconstitutional or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this section will not be affected thereby.
D. Abrogation and Greater Restrictions. It is not intended by this section to repeal, abrogate, or impair any existing easements, covenants, or deed restrictions. It is further not the
intention of this section to interfere with any other provision of the City Code, however,
where this section imposes a greater restriction upon the use or improvement of any premises than those imposed or required by other City Code provisions, rules, regulations or permits of the City, State, or appropriate watershed district, the provisions of this section will govern.
E. Definitions. Unless specifically defined here or in Sections 11.02 or 11.55, words or
phrases used in this section must be interpreted to give them the same meaning they have in common usage and to give this section its most reasonable application. All distances, unless otherwise specified, are measured horizontally.
Bluff means a topographic feature such as a hill, cliff, or embankment having the following
characteristics:
a. Part or all of the feature is located in a shoreland area;
b. The slope must drain toward a public water;
c. The slope rises at least 25 feet above the ordinary high water level; and
d. The grade of the slope from the toe of the bluff to a point 25 feet or more
above the ordinary high water level averages 30 percent or greater (see
Figure 1), except that an area with an average slope of less than 18 percent over a distance of at least 50 feet shall not be considered part of the bluff (see Figure 2).

Bluff impact zone means a bluff and land located within 20 feet of the top of a bluff (see
Figure 3).
Figure 3. Bluff Impact Zone and Top of Bluff
Bluff, Toe of means the lower point of a 50-foot segment with an average slope exceeding 18 percent or the ordinary high water level, whichever is higher.
Bluff, Top of means, for the purposes of measuring setbacks, establishing bluff impact
zones, and administering vegetation management standards, the higher point of a 50-foot segment with an average slope exceeding 18 percent (see Figure 3).
Boathouse has the meaning given in Minn. Stat. § 103G.245.
Buffer has the meaning given in Minn. Stat. § 103F.48.
Building line means a line parallel to a lot line or the ordinary high water level at the
required setback beyond which a structure may not extend.

Deck means a horizontal, unenclosed platform with or without attached railings, seats, trellises, or other features, attached or functionally related to a principal use or site and at
any point extending more than three feet above ground.
Impervious surface means a constructed hard surface that prevents or slows entry of water into the soil and causes water to run off the surface in greater quantities and at an increased rate of flow than prior to development, including rooftops; decks; sidewalks; patios; swimming pools; parking lots; concrete, asphalt, gravel driveways, or permeable pavers;
sport courts; retaining walls; synthetic turf; and other similar surfaces.
Intensive vegetation clearing means the complete removal of any vegetation in a contiguous patch, strip, row, or block.
Maintenance and repair means upkeep or preservation of an existing structure or accessory structure against normal wear and tear or degradation over time that does not change
exterior dimensions. Examples include rehabilitation or replacement of windows, siding,
or roof, or exterior finishes such as paint or stain.
Ordinary high water level and OHWL means the boundary of public waters and wetlands, and is an elevation delineating the highest water level which has been maintained for a sufficient period of time to leave evidence upon the landscape, commonly that point where
the natural vegetation changes from predominantly aquatic to predominantly terrestrial.
For watercourses, the ordinary high water level is the elevation of the top of the bank of the channel. For reservoirs and flowages, the ordinary high water level is the operating elevation of the normal summer pool.
Public waters has the meaning given in Minn. Stat. § 103G.005, Subd. 15.
Riparian lot means a lot adjacent to a lake, river, or stream identified in subdivision 5.C–
D.
Setback means the minimum horizontal distance between a structure, sewage treatment system, or other facility and an ordinary high water level, sewage treatment system, top of a bluff, road, highway, property line, or other facility.
Sewage treatment system has the same meaning as “subsurface sewage treatment system
or SSTS” as defined in Minnesota Rules, part 7080.1100, subpart 82.
Sewer system means pipelines or conduits, pumping stations, and force mains, and all other construction, devices, appliances, or appurtenances used for conducting sewage or industrial waste or other waste to a point of ultimate disposal.
Shore impact zone means land located between the ordinary high water level of a public
water and a line parallel to it at a setback of 50 percent of the structure setback (see Figure 4).
Figure 4. Shore Impact Zone
Shoreland means land located within the following distances from public waters:
a. 1,000 feet from the ordinary high water level of a lake, pond, or flowage; and
b. 300 feet from a river or stream, or the landward extent of a regulated floodplain on
a river or stream, whichever is greater (see Figure 5).
Figure 5. Definition of Shoreland
Steep slope means a slope of over twelve percent (12%) and of elevation difference of thirty (30) feet or more on a given parcel.
Subdivision means land that is divided for the purpose of sale, rent, or lease, including planned unit developments that involve the division of land.
Suitability analysis means an evaluation of land to determine if it is appropriate for the
proposed use that considers factors relevant to the proposed use and may include the following features: susceptibility to flooding; existence of wetlands; soils and erosion potential; slope steepness; water supply; sewage treatment capabilities; water depth; depth to groundwater and bedrock; vegetation; near-shore aquatic conditions unsuitable for
water-based recreation; fish and wildlife habitat; presence of historic preservation sites or historic properties; or any other relevant feature of the natural land.
Vegetation management plan means a plan detailing proposed alterations to vegetation
within areas where vegetation alteration must receive prior written approval from the City.
Water-oriented accessory structure means a small, above ground building or other improvement, except stairways, fences, docks, and retaining walls, which, because of the relationship of its use to surface water, reasonably needs to be located closer to public
waters than the normal structure setback. Examples of such structures include watercraft
and watercraft equipment storage structures, gazebos, screen houses, fish houses, pump houses, patios, fire pits, play structures, and detached decks.
Water-dependent use means the use of land for commercial, industrial, public or semi-public purposes, where access to and use of a public water is an integral part of the normal
conduct of operation. Marinas, resorts, and restaurants with transient docking facilities are
examples of water-dependent uses typically found in shoreland areas.
Wetland has the meaning given in Minnesota Rules, part 8420.0111.
Subd. 3. Administration.
A. Permits and Approvals.
1. A permit is required for the construction of buildings or building additions
(including construction of decks and signs), the installation or alteration of sewage treatment systems, and those land alteration activities not exempted by subdivision 9.C of this section.
2. A certificate of compliance, consistent with Minnesota Rules Part 7082.0700,
subpart 3, is required for sewage treatment systems whenever a permit, waiver, or
variance of any type is requested or required for any improvement on or use of the property that increases occupancy. Such improvements include but are not limited to the addition of bedrooms. A sewage treatment system will be considered compliant if the only deficiency is the system’s legally nonconforming setback
from the ordinary high water level.
3. No removal or alteration of vegetation in the shore impact zone, bluff impact zone, or on steep slopes is permitted unless a vegetation management plan has been approved by the City Manager or their designee in accordance with the vegetation management provisions set forth in subdivision 9.A of this section.
B. Variances. Variances from the requirements of this section may only be granted in
accordance with City Code Section 11.76 and Minn. Stat. § 462.357, and are subject to the following:
1. A variance may not circumvent the general purposes and intent of this section; and
2. For properties with existing sewage treatment systems, a certificate of compliance, consistent with Minnesota Rules Chapter 7082.0700, subpart 3, is required for
variance approval. No variance is required for a sewage treatment system if the only
deficiency is the system’s legally nonconforming setback from the ordinary high water level.
C. Mitigation.
1. All zoning and building permit applications subject to this section must address the
following elements and conditions as applicable to the proposed improvements, to
meet the purposes of this section and to protect adjacent properties and the public interest:
a. Advanced stormwater runoff management treatment;
b. Reducing impervious surfaces;
c. Prevention of soil erosion or other possible pollution of public waters, both
during and after construction;
d. Increasing setbacks from the ordinary high water level;
e. Restoration of wetlands;
f. Limiting vegetation removal and riparian vegetation restoration;
g. Visibility of structures and other facilities as viewed from public waters;
h. Compatibility of types, uses, and numbers of watercraft that the project will generate in relation to the suitability of public waters to safely accommodate those watercraft;
i. Provisions for the location, design, and use of structures, sewage treatment
systems, water supply systems, watercraft launching and docking areas, and
parking areas; and
j. Other conditions as deemed necessary by the City Planner or City Engineer.
2. Permits to construct sewage treatment systems, roads, driveways, structures, or other improvements on steep slopes may be subject to conditions, at the discretion
of the City Engineer or their designee, to prevent erosion and to preserve existing
vegetation screening of structures, vehicles, and other facilities as viewed from the surface of public waters assuming summer, leaf-on vegetation.
D. Nonconforming Uses. All legally established nonconforming uses under this section, existing as of January 6, 2026, may continue but will be managed according to Minn. Stat.
§ 462.357, subd. 1e and City Code Section 11.75.
E. Shoreland Boundary Modifications. Any request to reduce the boundaries of shorelands of public waters within the City must be sent to the commissioner or the commissioner’s
designated representative for approval and must include a resolution and supporting data
The boundaries of shorelands may be reduced when the shoreland of water bodies with different classifications overlap. In these cases, the topographic divide between the water bodies shall be used for adjusting the boundaries.
Subd. 4. Notifications to the Department of Natural Resources.
A. All amendments to this section must be submitted to the Department of Natural Resources
for review and approval for compliance with the statewide shoreland management rules. The proposed amendments will be submitted to the commissioner at least 30 days before any scheduled public hearings.
B. All notices of public hearings to consider variances, amendments, subdivisions, or planned
unit developments for shoreland regulated by this section must be sent to the commissioner
at least ten (10) days before the hearings. Notices of hearings to consider proposed subdivisions or planned unit developments must include copies of the preliminary plat or planned unit development application materials.
C. All approved amendments, subdivisions, planned unit developments, and final decisions
approving variances or conditional uses for shoreland regulated by this section must be
sent to the commissioner and postmarked within ten days of final action. If the City approves a variance after the Department of Natural Resources has formally recommended denial in the hearing record, the documentation of the approved variance shall also include the summary of the public record/testimony and the findings of facts and conclusions which
supported the City’s approval of the variance.
D. Any request to change the shoreland management classification of public waters within the City must be sent to the commissioner for approval, and must include a resolution and supporting data as required by Minnesota Rules, part 6120.3000, subp. 4.
E. Any request to reduce the boundaries of shorelands of public waters within the City must
be sent to the commissioner for approval and must include a resolution and supporting data.
The boundaries of shorelands may be reduced when the shoreland of water bodies with different classifications overlap. In these cases, the topographic divide between the water bodies shall be used for adjusting the boundaries.
Subd. 5. Shoreland Classification System
A. The purpose of this shoreland classification system is to ensure that shoreland development
on the public waters of the City is regulated consistent with the classifications assigned by the commissioner under Minnesota Rules, Part 6120.3300.

a. OHWL Setbacks. Structures (other than stairways, lifts, and landings, which are addressed in subdivision 8.B) impervious surfaces, and sewage
treatment systems must meet setbacks in the table above, except that water-
oriented accessory structures meeting the requirements of subdivision 8.C may be set back a minimum distance of ten (10) feet from the OHWL.
b. Setback Averaging. Where principal structures exist on the adjoining lots on both sides of a proposed building site, structure setbacks may be altered
without a variance to conform to the adjoining principal structure setbacks
from the OHWL, provided the proposed structure is not located in a shore impact zone or bluff impact zone (see Figure 6).
Figure 6. Structure Setback Averaging
c. Setback of Decks. Decks and deck additions may be allowed without a
variance to a legally nonconforming structure not meeting the required
setback from the ordinary high water level if all of the following criteria are met:
(1) The impervious surface does not exceed the limit in subdivision 9.D.4;
(2) The structure is legally nonconforming and existed on the date the
structure setbacks were established;
(3) A thorough evaluation of the property and structure reveals no reasonable location for a deck meeting or exceeding the existing OHWL setback of the structure;
(4) The deck encroachment toward the OHWL does not exceed 15
percent (15%) of the existing setback of the structure from the OHWL or is no closer than thirty (30) feet from the OWHL, whichever is more restrictive;
(5) The deck is not roofed or screened (see Figure 7).
Figure 7. Deck Encroachment
d. Additional Structure Setbacks. Structures must also meet the following setbacks, regardless of the waterbody classification:
Setback from: Setback (ft)
Top of bluff 30
Unplatted cemetery 50
Right-of-way line of federal, state, or county highway 50
Right-of-way line of town road, public street, or other roads not classified 20
e. Bluff Impact Zones. Structures, impervious surfaces, and accessory structures, except stairways, lifts, and landings, must not be placed within bluff impact zones.
2. Height of Structures. All structures in residential districts, except places of
worship, may not exceed thirty-five (35) feet in height.
3. Lowest Floor Elevation.
a. Buildings must be placed such that the lowest floor elevation is at least two (2) feet above the 100-Year Frequency Flood Level.
b. In addition to the lowest floor, all service utilities must be elevated or water-
tight to the elevation at least two (2) feet above the 100-Year Frequency
Flood Level.
c. If elevation methods involving fill would result in filling in the shore impact zone, then buildings must instead be elevated through floodproofing
methods in accordance with the following item d.
d. To be floodproofed, a building must be built to resist hydrostatic pressure through elevation methods such as blocks, pilings, filled stem walls, elevated concrete pad, internally flooded enclosed areas, or through other accepted engineering practices consistent with FEMA technical bulletins 1,
2, and 3.
F. Water Supply and Sewage Treatment.
1. Water Supply. Any public or private supply of water for domestic purposes must meet or exceed standards for water quality of the Minnesota Department of Health and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.
2. Sewage Treatment. Any premises used for human occupancy must be connected to
a publicly owned sewer system where available, or comply with Minnesota Rules Chapters 7080–7081.
Subd. 8. Performance Standards for Public and Private Facilities.
A. Placement and Design of Roads, Driveways, and Parking Areas. Roads, driveways, and
parking areas must be designed to take advantage of natural vegetation and topography to
achieve maximum screening as viewed from public waters and comply with the following standards:
1. Roads, driveways, and parking areas must meet structure setbacks and must not be placed within bluff impact zones or shore impact zones, when other reasonable and
feasible placement alternatives exist. If no alternatives exist, they may be placed
within these areas, and must be designed to minimize adverse impacts;
2. Watercraft access ramps, approach roads, and access-related parking areas may be placed within shore impact zones provided the vegetative screening and erosion control conditions of this subpart are met;
3. Private watercraft access ramps, approach roads, and access-related parking areas
are prohibited; and
4. For public roads, driveways, and parking areas, documentation must be provided by a registered landscape architect or registered professional engineer that such facilities are designed and constructed to minimize and control erosion to public
waters consistent with the field office technical guides of the local soil and water
conservation district, or other applicable technical materials.
B. Stairways, Lifts, and Landings. Stairways and lifts are the preferred alternative to major topographic alterations for achieving access up and down bluffs and steep slopes to shore areas. Stairways, lifts, and landings must meet the following design requirements:
1. Stairways and lifts must not exceed four (4) feet in width on residential lots. Wider stairways may be used for commercial properties and public recreational uses;
2. Landings for stairways and lifts on residential lots must not exceed thirty-two (32)
square feet in area. Landings larger than thirty-two (32) square feet may be used for commercial properties and public recreational uses;
3. Canopies or roofs are not allowed on stairways, lifts, or landings;
4. Stairways, lifts, and landings may be either constructed above the ground on posts
or pilings, or placed into the ground, provided they are designed and built in a
manner that ensures control of soil erosion;
5. Stairways, lifts, and landings must be located in the most visually inconspicuous portions of lots, as viewed from the surface of the public water assuming summer, leaf-on conditions, whenever practical; and
6. Facilities such as ramps, lifts, or mobility paths for physically handicapped persons
are also allowed for achieving access to shore areas, if they are consistent with the dimensional and performance standards of this subdivision 8.B and the requirements of Minnesota Rules Chapter 1341.
C. Water-Oriented Accessory Structures. Each residential lot may have up to two water-
oriented structures that do not meet the required structure setback if they comply with the
following provisions:
1. Any water-oriented accessory structure must not exceed ten (10) feet in height, exclusive of safety rails;
2. Only one water-oriented accessory structure per residential lot may have a roof;
3. The combined area of any water-oriented accessory structures must not exceed two
hundred fifty (250) square feet;
4. All water-oriented accessory structures must be outside the bluff impact zones and bluff setbacks;
5. The setback from the ordinary high water level must be at least ten (10) feet;
6. The water-oriented accessory structure is not a boathouse or boat storage structure
as defined under Minn. Stat. § 103G.245;
7. Any water-oriented accessory structure must be screened to reduce visibility as viewed from public waters and adjacent shorelands by vegetation, topography, increased setbacks or color, assuming summer, leaf-on conditions;
8. A roof may be used as an open-air deck with safety rails, but may not be enclosed
or used as a storage area;
9. Any water-oriented accessory structure must not be designed or used for human habitation and must not contain water supply or sewage treatment facilities; and
10. Water-oriented accessory structures may have the lowest floor placed lower than
the elevation specified in subdivision 7.E.3 if the structure is designed to accommodate internal flooding, constructed of flood-resistant materials to the elevation, electrical and mechanical equipment is placed above the elevation and, if long duration flooding is anticipated, the structure is built to withstand ice action
and wind-driven waves and debris.
11. Lots located within the Park and Open Space zoning district may have up to one water-oriented accessory structure per two hundred (200) feet of shoreline.
D. Fences. Fences are allowed subject to the requirements of this chapter and City Code Section 9.76.
Subd. 9. Vegetation and Land Alterations.
A. Purpose. The purpose of these regulations regarding alterations of vegetation and topography is to prevent erosion into public waters, fix nutrients, preserve shoreland aesthetics, preserve historic values, prevent bank slumping, sustain water quality, and protect fish and wildlife habitat.
B. Vegetation Management.
1. Vegetation management plan approval by the City Manager or their designee is required prior to vegetation removal or alteration in the shore impact zone and bluff impact zone and on steep slopes. No such work is allowed until a plan is submitted and approved consistent with these vegetation management provisions.
2. Removal or alteration of vegetation must comply with the provisions of this
subsection except for:
a. Vegetation alteration necessary for the construction of structures and sewage treatment systems under validly issued permits for these facilities;

4. Limited clearing and trimming of healthy native trees and shrubs in the shore
impact zone and bluff impact zone and on steep slopes to provide a view to the water from the principal dwelling and to accommodate the placement of stairways
and landings, picnic areas, access paths, beach and watercraft access areas, and permitted water-oriented accessory structures may be permitted with prior approval
of a vegetation management plan, provided that:
a. Vegetation is maintained to screen structures, vehicles, or other facilities as viewed from the water, assuming summer, leaf-on conditions.
b. The maximum view corridor is less than fifty (50) feet or one-third (1/3) of the parcel width, whichever is less;
c. Existing shading of water surfaces along rivers is preserved;
d. Cutting debris or slash must be scattered and not mounded on the ground;

impact zone and bluff impact zone.
3. Land alteration activities must meet the following standards:
a. Grading or filling of any wetland must meet or exceed the wetland protection standards under Minnesota Rules Chapter 8420 and any other permits, reviews, or approvals by other local, state, or federal agencies such
as watershed districts, the DNR, or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers;
b. Land alterations must be designed and implemented to consistently minimize the amount of erosion and sediment from entering surface waters during and after construction by:
(1) Limiting the amount and time of bare ground exposure;
(2) Using temporary ground covers such as mulches or similar materials;
(3) Establishing permanent, deep-rooted and dense vegetation cover as
soon as possible;
(4) Using sediment traps, vegetated buffer strips, or other appropriate techniques;
(5) Stabilizing altered areas to acceptable erosion control standards
consistent with the field office technical guides of the soil and water
conservation district;
(6) Not placing fill or excavated material in a manner that creates unstable slopes. Plans to place fill or excavated material on steep slopes must be reviewed by qualified professionals for continued
slope stability and must not create finished slopes of thirty percent
(30%) or greater;
(7) Fill or excavated material must not be placed in bluff impact zones;
(8) Minimizing discharge of water from storm sewers, downspouts, drain tiles, sump pumps, pool drainage, and the like into bluff impact
zones to the greatest extent practicable;
(9) Any alterations below the ordinary high water level of public waters must first be authorized by the commissioner under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103G; and
(10) Alterations of topography are only allowed if they are accessory to
permitted or conditional uses and do not adversely affect adjacent or
nearby properties.
c. Excavations to connect boat slips, canals, lagoons, and harbors to public waters require a public waters permit from the DNR and must comply with Minnesota Rules Chapter 6115.
d. New constructed stormwater outfalls to public waters must be consistent

D. Impervious Surface.
1. For lots located within the Rural or R-1 zoning districts, impervious surface coverage must not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the lot area or the percent
coverage of the lot area that existed on January 6, 2026, whichever is greater.
2. For lots located in a zoning district other than Rural or R-1, impervious surface coverage must not exceed seventy percent (70%) of the lot area or the percent
coverage of the lot area that existed on January 6, 2026, whichever is greater.
3. Detailed calculations of existing and proposed impervious surface coverage percentages must be submitted with land use applications and during the building permit process for any application showing alteration to impervious surface coverage for any lot.
E. Violations. If a violation occurs of the vegetation or land alteration standards set forth in
this subdivision 9, the responsible party and/or property owner may, at the discretion of the City Engineer or their designee, be required to restore the affected area. Any restoration must be first approved through the vegetation management plan process and must include a vegetation management plan and a three-year maintenance plan.
Subd. 10. Subdivision/Platting Provisions
A. Purpose. The purpose of these subdivision and platting provisions is to ensure that new development minimizes impacts to shoreland resources and is safe and functional.
B. Land Suitability. Each lot created through subdivision, including planned unit developments authorized under Section 11.40 that involve the subdivision of land, must be
suitable in its natural state for the proposed use with minimal alteration A suitability
analysis must be conducted for each proposed subdivision to determine if the subdivision is suitable in its natural state for the proposed use with minimal alteration and whether any feature of the land is likely to be harmful to the health, safety, or welfare of future residents of the proposed subdivision or of the community.
C. Water and Sewage Design Standards.
1. A potable water supply and a sewage treatment system consistent with Minnesota Rules, Chapters 7080–7081 must be provided for every lot.
2. Each lot must include at least two soil treatment and dispersal areas that support systems described in Minnesota Rules, Parts 7080.2200 to 7080.223 or site

Planning Commission Agenda Staff Report
Date: November 17, 2025
Subject: Shoreland Ordinance Revision
(Section 11.50 of Eden Prairie City Code)
From: Lori Haak, Water Resources Coordinator
ITEM DESCRIPTION
City staff proposes to improve the alignment between the model shoreland ordinance (2022) of
the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and the Eden Prairie City Code by
repealing existing City Code Section 11.50 in its entirety and replacing it with the new City Code
Section 11.50 (Attachment 1).
REQUESTED ACTION
Approve revised Shoreland Ordinance, repealing City Code Section 11.50 in its entirety
and replacing it with new City Code Section 11.50 as attached (Attachment 1).
BACKGROUND
The City of Eden Prairie first adopted its shoreland ordinance in 1982. Prior to that time, the City
used the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) model ordinance and City's draft
Code to review development proposals around water bodies and creeks. Minor revisions were
made to the shoreland code in 1996 and 2004.
In April 2022, DNR issued a new model shoreland ordinance, with instruction to cities to amend
their code to be consistent with the model. The draft ordinance meets this objective, with
modifications accepted by the DNR.
PROPOSED CHANGES TO CODE
In incorporating the DNR’s model ordinance, many of the changes proposed clarify existing
requirements or codify existing practice.
• Provide additional examples of impervious surface in definition, including decks
• Add Ordinary High Water Levels (OHWL) for lakes
• Incorporate correct DNR river and stream classifications
• Allow decreased deck setbacks without a variance under certain conditions
• Align water-oriented accessory structure requirements with DNR standards
• Codify Vegetation Management Plan requirement for work within Shore and Bluff Impact
Zones
• Increase impervious surface limit to 70% for lots not zoned Rural or R-1
DNR REVIEW
City staff met with DNR on March 11, 2024, August 21, 2024, and August 25, 2025.
As a result of the meetings, 4 deliverables (Attachments 3 through 6) were requested by DNR:
1. A tabulation of public ownership of shoreline in Eden Prairie since the City has more
shoreline in public ownership than many surrounding communities;
Staff report – Shoreland Code Update November 17, 2025 Page 2 2. A tabular representation of land use within each waterbody’s shoreland buffer;
3. An analysis of impervious surface coverage within each waterbody’s shoreland buffer;
and
4. A list of proposed deviations from the model ordinance alongside a list of proposed
provisions more stringent than the model ordinance.
Of initial concern to DNR was the proposal to increase the impervious surface limit from 30%
(existing City Code) to 70% for shoreland parcels not zoned Rural or R-1. The City’s history of
shoreland preservation through land and easement acquisition led to protection of water
resources, riparian areas, and shoreland zones uncharacteristic of similarly developed
communities (Attachments 7 through 9). Additionally, many shoreland parcels not zoned Rural
or R-1 have already been developed with higher impervious surface coverage amounts.
Documentation provided by the City addressed DNR concerns, resulting in DNR support of
increased impervious surface limits in areas not zoned Rural or R-1. This will better reflect the
pattern of development that currently exists within the city.
DNR requires local governments to request conditional approval review of near final draft
ordinances. DNR provided Conditional Approval on October 1, 2025.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve the ordinance as drafted, repealing City Code Section 11.50 in its entirety and
replacing it with new City Code Section 11.50 as attached

A. Code Amendment – Shoreland Ordinance (2025-02CA)
• Amendment to Chapter 11, section 11.50 Shoreland Regulations
Barnhart introduced Patrick Sejkora, Water Resources Engineer for the City of
Eden Prairie, who was presenting in place of Lori Haak, Water Resources
Coordinator. Sekora presented a PowerPoint and detailed the Shoreland
Ordinance Revision. This was Section 11.50 of the City Code under Zoning. The
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES

shoreland zone comprised nearly 50 percent of Eden Prairie with 19 lakes, a
river, and four creeks. A shoreland zone was any land within 1,000 feet of a lake
or within 300 feet of a creek or the river.
The goals of the Shoreland Code Amendment were to comply with State Statute,
align with DNR’s model ordinance (most recently revised in 2022), codify existing
practices, and to repeal and replace the entire Code to ensure consistency and
compliance with the latest DNR/state model and for ease of use and updating.
The main changes were: to add OHWLs (ordinary high water levels), to correct
DNR classifications for streams (from general waters to tributaries or transitions,
to revise water-oriented accessory structures, to add Vegetations Management
Plan requirements, and to refine the definition of “impervious surface.” An
impervious surface would be redefined to allow for a more consistent
application of the Shoreland Code. In agreement with codifying existing practices
and to prevent more variances or waivers, this would be redefined to be 30
percent for all Rural and R-1 zoned parcels, and 70 percent for all others.
Staff recommended approval of the new Ordinance as drafted.
Farr commended the adoption of a common template language from city to city,
which more readily highlighted differences. He noted the Ordinance definition of
the Shoreland Zone as “1,000 feet from lake, pond for flowage,” and asked for
the definition of flowage versus “floodway” used elsewhere in the Amendment.
Sejkora replied the use of flowage came straight from the DNR which did not
include a definition. This was a vestigial term similar to a reservoir that would
not have a practical application within Eden Prairie, having no real counterpart
here, but the Code Amendment would coherently apply to all lakes, ponds,
rivers, and streams within the City. Farr asked for and received confirmation that
only the buffer around lakes and streams or their floodplain comprised the
definition of the Shoreland Zone.
Farr also asked and received confirmation that Subdivision Seven, General
Performance Standards would be applied only to new lots via a platting process,
and not redevelopments. Sejkora added any new use of a riparian lot would not
trigger the requirement of this minimum lot width and would be “grandfathered
in.” Barnhart stated under the Amendment any lot created before January 1,
2026 would be allowed to retain its existing lot area and width. Therefore such
lots would be conforming, not even “legal nonconforming.”
Farr stated that a table Subdivision Seven E.1-D regarding additional structure
setbacks listed a top-of-bluff setback, a cemetery setback, and right-of-way
setbacks. He thought this information could be included in the Performance
Standards section. Sejkora agreed, stating in most cases this would be
administrated for the rear yard and other right-of-way setbacks codified
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
November 17, 2025

elsewhere are more restrictive. There were different setbacks for the right-of-
way for all but the Town Center and TOD zoning districts, which were more
restrictive than the Shoreland District. In most cases, residents would find the
relevant information where they would most likely look for it, and staff would
work with developers in those cases where the section applied. Farr suggested
including a footnote to link the two sections together.
Pieper asked if there were sections in the Eden Prairie Code Amendment that
were more restrictive than the DNR’s, and Sejkora replied there were, such as
setbacks from ordinary high waters and lot widths, with the inclusion of entire
bluffs, and in the application of the Shoreland Code itself. Under the DNR the
Shoreland ended where the buffer ended, but Eden Prairie’s longstanding
practice was to apply the Shoreland Code the entirety of any parcel that is
touched by the buffer. There were other examples in terms of clearing and
applications to all structures rather than just to principal structures. This aligned
with codifying of existing practices.
MOTION: Sherwood moved, seconded by Farr, to close the public hearing.
Motion carried 7-0.
MOTION: Kirk moved, seconded by Taylor, to recommend approval for repealing
and replacing the City Code Section 11.50 as recommended by staff as
represented in the November 17, 2025 staff report Motion carried 7-0.
B. Code Amendment – Shoreland Ordinance (2025-03CA)
• Amendment to Chapter 11, section 11.47 related to site plan approval
Barnhart presented a PowerPoint and detailed the Amendment clarifying the
review process for most projects in Eden Prairie. There would be no changes to
the subdivision process, but would simply the process for simpler site plan
projects. The Ordinance would have conforming projects reviewed by staff and
approved via an administrative process; nonconforming projects would go
through the Planning Commission and City Council review process. The
administrative process included a site plan review committee that met weekly,
including engineers, planners, fire department personnel, landscaping staff, et
cetera.
In a significant change, conforming building expansions up to 10 percent of the
gross floor area (GFA) would be reviewed by staff; the City Council (and not the
Planning Commission) would review all expansions that were 10-50 percent of
the gross floor area, and the full review including the Planning Commission and
the City Council would review all larger percentages. This paralleled demolitions
which received site plan approvals, but these often were part of a larger project
which would be part of the full review process. Barnhart cited 7965 Wallace
Road (a façade change) and the Holiday Inn Express Pool Addition (a four percent
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
November 17, 2025
Page 4
gross full area expansion) as examples of what would be approved by staff.
Barnhart recommended approval of the Ordinance change as drafted.
Kirk asked for and received confirmation the City Council review without the
involvement of the Planning Commission would still be a public hearing, as was
presently done for the full review (City Council and Planning Commission).
Farr commended the reduction of red tape in this Ordinance change. Farr
suggested a simpler process offering two different choices rather than a three-
tiered process; including the Planning Commission in all greater than 10 percent
GFA expansions, or having these decided only by the City Council, would satisfy
him.
MOTION: Grote moved, seconded by Farr, to close the public hearing. Motion
carried 7-0.
Taylor commended the expedition of future projects.
MOTION: Taylor moved, seconded by Grote, to recommend approval for
revisions to the City Code Section 11.4. as recommended by staff as represented
in the November 17, 2025 staff report Motion carried 7-0.

Re: Conditional Approval of Eden Prairie’s Shoreland Ordinance
Dear Ms. Haak:
Thank you for sending the City of Eden Prairie’s proposed shoreland ordinance to the DNR for conditional
approval review. I am pleased to inform you that the attached proposed ordinance is substantially compliant
with the statewide rules and hereby approved, provided all of the conditions of approval in this letter are met.
We have reviewed the ordinance received by email on September 23, 2025 resulting from multiple discussions
regarding an appropriate update to the 1996 DNR-approved ordinance. We appreciate your time and effort to
answer our questions and document the city’s development pattern and existing strategies to protect the city’s
riparian resources.
The City is proposing a number of deviations or flexibility to shoreland standards identified by blue comments on
the attached proposed ordinance. Many of these deviations are carry overs from the 1996 DNR-approved
ordinance. Offsetting these lower standards are many higher standards identified by green comments on the
attached ordinance. The most significant deviation is a request for up to 70% impervious surface for zoning
districts other than Rural or R-1. The affected zoning districts, approximately 20% of the city’s land area, are
largely developed. Development in these areas was approved through the City’s PUD ordinance, which the DNR
approved in 1996. Allowing a 70% impervious surface limit recognizes the existing development status of these
areas. While a high amount of impervious surface exists, the city has historically administered many
conservation policies in these highly developed areas. These include requiring riparian buffers, either dedicated
to the city or protected with conservation easements. Other programs include a partnership with watershed
districts and metro Blooms to encourage shoreline restorations, among other initiatives.
We have reviewed your proposed ordinance and requested flexibility for compliance with the state shoreland
rules (MR 6120.2500 – 6120.3900) and are providing conditional approval as follows:
Conditions of Approval
The following conditions must be met before the DNR will issue final approval:
1. Return the attached “Ordinance Processing Checklist” and documents identified on the checklist after final
adoption by the City Council.
Minnesota Department of Natural Resources • Division of Ecological and Water Resources
1200 Warner Road, St. Paul, MN, 55106
2. Ongoing compliance with the provisions of this ordinance. If any of the offsetting higher standards are
eliminated or deviations modified in future ordinance amendments without DNR approval, approval of
implementation flexibility is rescinded. The authority and process under which the DNR evaluates and
approves deviations is outlined in Minnesota Rule 6120.2800, Subp 3.
Next Steps
Following are the steps for completing and receiving final DNR approval for your ordinance:
1. The City Council adopts the ordinance revised according to the listed conditions.
2. Email the completed Ordinance Processing Checklist (attached) and the documents identified on the
checklist within 10 days of City council adoption to:
a. Ryan Toot, ryan.toot@state.mn.us
b. Ordinance.review.dnr@state.mn.us
3. We will review the ordinance adopted by the City Council for consistency with the above conditions and
the terms of implementation flexibility.
4. If the adopted amendments are consistent with the conditions and terms of implementation flexibility,
we will send you a “final approval” letter. The ordinance will not be effective until the DNR provides final
approval.
We appreciate the opportunity to work with you in developing the City’s shoreland ordinance. Ryan Toot
(Phone: 651-259-5822) will be available to help the City administer the ordinance and to consult with you on
other water-related projects and plans, and their implementation.
Sincerely,
Megan Moore
Region 3 South District Manager
