INTRODUCTION AND LEGAL BASIS ' A. Intent Bo Co The Economic Development Authority of the City of Prior Lake, Minnesota (the "EDA"), proposes to establish a Redevelopment Project Area as described herein (the "Redevelopment Area"), in connection with the acquisition of property and construction of a new city hall/police station facility (the "Municipal Project"). The City of Prior Lake, Minnesota (the "City"), will lease the building from the EDA with an option to purchase pursuant to a lease with option to purchase agreement. Revenue bonds in the principal amount not to exceed approximately $10,00(~,000 are proposed to be sold by the EDA to finance the redevelopment project costs. The revenue bonds will be secured by the payments to be made by the City under the lease with option to purchase agreement. In the remainder of the Redevelopment Area the EDA proposes to facilitate, as appropriate, private development by acquiring land and preparing it for private development and by constructing public infrastructure improvements. Statement The City and EDA have determined that conditions exist within the Redevelopment Area which have prevented further development of land by private enterprise and/or public entities. It has been found that the Redevelopment Area is potentially more useful and valuable for contributing to the public health, safety and welfare than has been realized under existing development. The development of these parcels are not attainable in the foreseeable future w. ithout the intervention of the EDA in the development process. The EDA has prepared this Redevelopment Plan, which provides for the elimination of conditions which preclude redevelopment, thereby making the land useful and valuable for contributing to the public health, safety and welfare.
