Stat. 428A.11 to 428A.21, as amended, established by ordinance a housing improvement area on the property legally described on attached Exhibit A known as the "Fairway Woods II Condominium Association Housing Improvement Area"by adoption of Ordinance No. 18-2013 ("Enabling Ordinance"); and WHEREAS, pursuant to Minn. Stat. 428A.14, the City is authorized to impose fees on the housing units within a housing area in order to produce sufficient revenue to provide housing improvements and reimburse the City; and WHEREAS, as required by Minn. Stat. 428A.14,the City held a duly noticed public hearing on November 19, 2013 to consider the imposition of fees on the Fairway Woods II Condominium Association Housing Improvement Area. All interest parties were given an opportunity to be heard; and WHEREAS, the Fairway Woods II Condominium Association ("Association") has submitted to the City a financial plan prepared by Michael P. Mullen, CPA, PLLC, an independent 3rd party as required by Minn. Stat. 428A.14. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNSEL OF THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, THAT THE CITY COUNCIL FINDS, DETERMINES, AND ORDERS AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Recitals. The Recitals set forth above are incorporated herein as if fully set forth. Section 2. Findings. The City Council hereby finds based on the petition, the Enabling Ordinance, the public hearing held on November 19,2013, and all other information provided: A. The petition and Enabling Ordinance comply with the requirements in Minn. Stat. 428A.11 through 428A.21. B. The Association has submitted to the City a financial plan prepared by Michael P. Mullen CPA, PLLC, an independent third party, which plan is acceptable to the City and the Association, that provides for the Association to finance maintenance and operation of the common elements in the Fairway Woods II Condominium Association Housing Improvement Area and a long-range plan to conduct and finance capital improvements, all in accordance with Minn. Stat. 428A.14. C. Imposing the fee on a per unit basis is more fair and reasonable than using a tax capacity or square footage basis due to the style of the units and the location of all units in the same building. Section 2. Housing Improvement Fee Imposed. A. The estimated cost of the housing improvements is $145,000. The City hereby imposes a fee on each housing unit within the Fairway Woods II Condominium Association Housing Improvement Area in an amount of$7,250 per unit (the "Housing Improvement Fee"). If the cost of the housing improvements exceed the estimated amount, the City may charge additional fees against the units by complying with the notice and hearing requirements in Minn. Stat. 428A.14. If the costs of the housing improvements are less than the estimated amount,the City will reduce the Housing Improvement Fee against each unit on a pro rata basis. The City shall take the appropriate steps necessary to ensure the reduction of the Housing Improvement Fee against each unit. B. The Housing Improvement Fee shall be assessed against each housing unit in equal annual installments extending over a period of 15 years from the date the first installment is due and payable and will bear interest at the rate of 5.35 percent per annum from the effective date of this resolution("Assessment"). The first installment shall be payable in 2015 and to the first installment shall be added interest on the entire Assessment from the date of this resolution until December 31, 2015. C. The owners of the housing units may, at any time prior to the certification of the Assessment to the County Auditor, pay to the City the entire Assessment on such unit, with interest accrued to the date of payment. No interest shall be charged if the entire Assessment is paid within 30 days from the effective date of this resolution. The owners may at any time thereafter, pay to the City the entire amount of the Assessment remaining unpaid, with interest accrued to December 31 of the year in which such payment is made. Such payment must be made before November 15 or interest will be charged through December 31 of the succeeding year. Unless prepaid the Assessment shall be payable at the same time and in the same manner as provided for payment and collection of ad valorem taxes, as provided in Minnesota Statutes, Sections 428A.15 and 428A.05. The Housing Improvement Fee is not included in the calculation of levies or limits on levies imposed under any law or charter. Section 3. Notice of Right to File Objections. Within five days after the adoption of this resolution, the City Clerk is directed to mail to the owner of each housing unit in the Fairway Woods II Condominium Association Housing Improvement Area the following: a summary of this resolution; notice that owners subject to the proposed Housing Improvement Fee have a right to veto this resolution if owners of 45% or more of the housing units within the Fairway Woods II Condominium Association Housing Improvement Area file objections with the City Clerk before the effective date of this resolution; and notice that a copy of this resolution is on file with the City Clerk for public inspection. Section 4. Effective Date. This resolution shall be effective 45 days after adoption hereof, provided, however, that if owners of 45% or more of the housing units within the Fairway Woods II Condominium Association Housing Improvement Area file objections with the City Clerk within 45 days of the adoption of the resolution,the resolution shall not become effective.
