BUSINESS ITEMS
3. Adoption of the 2025 Budget and Authorization of the EDA and HRA Levies
Forney reported in late August, the proposed budget for the 2025 fiscal year was distributed to the
City Council. Before the City Council completes its final review of the proposed budget, the
Columbia Heights Economic Development Authority (“EDA”) and the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority in and for the City of Columbia Heights (“HRA”) are required to adopt fund budgets for
Fund 204: EDA Administration and Fund 408: EDA Redevelopment Projects; and to authorize their
4
Item 1.
City of Columbia Heights Minutes September 03, 2024
EDA Meeting Page 3
respective 2024 tax levies, payable in 2025.
Forney explained the EDA effectively has two separate tax levies after the City Council granted the
EDA certain HRA powers in 1996. One tax levy is administered by the City under Minnesota
Statutes, Section 469.107 on behalf of the EDA (the “EDA Levy”), and the other is a special benefit
tax levy administered by the EDA under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.033 on behalf of the HRA
(the “HRA Levy”). The proposed fund budgets reflect total levy amounts within the statutory limits.
For 2024, the EDA Levy would capture $317,000 from the City’s estimated market land value,
whereas the HRA Levy would net $400,000. Combined, both levies result in a total net revenue of
$719,000.
Forney noted at the August 5th EDA meeting a few members of the EDA spoke about increasing the
EDA or HRA levy to provide more funds for EDA initiatives and conduct increases in increments so
that any later increases don’t need to be as large. A Levy Calculations Chart was provided in the
meeting packet, which is a historical breakdown of EDA and HRA changes since 2008. As
demonstrated by the chart there has not been an increase in the HRA levy since 2020. Since 2020
the City’s Market Value has increased by 27.48%. For 2025 staff are recommending a $90,000
increase to the HRA levy. $5,000 of this increase would cover the Home Energy Squad Program.
While the remaining $85,000 would be available for the affordable housing trust fund and any
projects or initiatives it takes on. At the same time, the increase would constitute a 24% increase in
the HRA levy. It follows just below the pattern if the HRA Levy had been incrementally increased
every year. Staff are also recommending the additional funds be placed in the Affordable Housing
Trust Fund for 2025 to make up for the reduced amount of LAHA funding received from the State.
This can be altered next year to shift the additional income to other programs or initiatives. The
$400,000 amount highlighted above and established in Resolution 2024 -23 is the budget after the
addition of the $90,000. In 2024 the EDA budgeted $310,000 for the HRA Levy.
Forney stated that Staff’s recommendation is reflected in the attached resolutions. If, after further
discussion, the EDA would like to alter the amount on the budget resolutions, amendment motions
can be made at the meeting. The other remaining documents cover the breakdown of which
priorities the levied funds are attributed to. For more detail, please refer to the attached summary
budgets.
Questions/Comments from Members:
Buesgens asked if the maximum tax increase was ultimately increasing the total tax percentage by
.5%. Forney replied that it was for both levies. The EDA levy is an operating levy. Buesgens asked if
they would increase the maximum tax increase for the EDA levy. Forney replied that Staff were not
proposing that. Buesgens asked if there was a reason for not doing that. Chirpich replied that the
primary reason is the EDA levy is an operational staffing support levy. There is no need to increase
it. The HRA levy is for housing initiatives and redevelopment. Forney added that the programs and
grants come from the HRA levy.
5
Item 1.
City of Columbia Heights Minutes September 03, 2024
EDA Meeting Page 4
Chirpich mentioned that the EDA levy could be used for project-based funding. In the past, the City
has separated operations and programs into two compartments so that it is easier to track.
Buesgens asked if money could be moved from the EDA levy to the HRA levy. Chirpich replied that
they could. Buesgens mentioned that she would like to expand the façade program to include
landscaping.
Buesgens explained that she would like to see the HRA levy maxed in order to provide the EDA with
more flexibility. Márquez Simula agreed and added that she would like to invest in the parking
ramp and alleyway for businesses.
Chirpich asked what the capacity was to move beyond $319,000. Forney replied that with the extra
increase, it would be at $400,000. For 2025, there is capacity for $27,959 more than what could be
pulled from the HRA levy. Chirpich replied that the commissioners were curious about the EDA levy
and added that he believed it was about the same maximum. Forney mentioned that both levies
could be increased to the maximum amount. The EDA levy gets rolled into the City’s budget.
Forney explained that the EDA levy could max at just over $100,000 and an additional $27,000 for
the HRA levy.
James noted on page 31 of the agenda packet, in blue it says 315,000 proposed for the EDA and
asked if the $427,959 was the maximum. Forney replied that the numbers were pulled prior to the
last EDA meeting so the numbers are incorrect.
Buesgens asked Szurek if she was comfortable going the maximum. Szurek replied that she was.
Márquez Simula mentioned she would like to see how many residents are participating in the
Home Energy Squad program. Forney replied that he would bring the numbers to the next meeting.
James suggested having the additional funds that are not already allocated for the HRA money
could be put into the affordable home programming. She wondered if the $100,000 for the EDA
levy could be set aside as a potential future discussion on what to do with it. Chirpich replied that it
was possible.
Forney explained in fund 408 there is a breakdown of where all the money is allocated. He asked if
the EDA had a general idea of where they would like to allocate the extra funds. Chirpich added
that the allocation could happen at a later date. Szurek suggested waiting until the budget was
complete and the EDA could address it then. Forney replied that they could readdress the
allocations in October.
Forney noted that the EDA would need to make a motion to amend the Resolution to reflect the
changed number. Chirpich added that the maximum for the HRA levy allowed for $427,959;
however, Staff recommended only $400,000 to leave some wiggle room. Buesgens asked why Staff
6
Item 1.
City of Columbia Heights Minutes September 03, 2024
EDA Meeting Page 5
wanted some wiggle room. Forney replied that it was based on the market value.
Márquez Simula noted an error of a number under “Now Therefore, Be It Resolved” on page 33 of
the Agenda Packet.
Kloiber reviewed the levy budget. He noted that there are components that the City Council will
adopt. The estimated General Fund levy, Library levy, and EDA Fund levy are estimated to be
$18,066,000. He explained that the EDA tax amount is not on the property tax s tatements for
residents since it is combined with the City’s general levy. The HRA levy is not combined with the
tax statement but instead, it is combined into other special districts on the tax statement.
Kloiber explained that Staff is proposing an 8% gross tax levy increase. Due to the increase in fiscal
disparities this year, local taxpayers are not picking up the full 8% increase but would be picking up
5%.
Kloiber noted that the limit is based on the market value for the EDA and HRA levy. The EDA levy
limit is $419,402 and the HRA levy’s limit is $427,959. Staff had originally budgeted for $317,000 for
the EDA levy and $400,000 for the HRA levy. If the EDA chose to increase the EDA levy by $90,000;
the gross tax levy would increase to 8.5% and taxpayers would pick up 5.8%.
Kloiber reviewed the fiscal disparities trend from 2020-2025. He noted that it is possible to see a
permanent contraction in the commercial real estate base relative to residential values. There is
less of a need for office space as people are working remotely.
Forney asked Kloiber what the buffer should be in order to have some wiggle room in the levies.
Kloiber replied that the market value is not controllable. He explained that if the money is used for
one time projects that are flexible, then it is not a big deal to increase the levy. If the maximum is
requested by the EDA for the HRA levy and the market declines, it could cause the statutory to be
rolled back in the levy. If the funds are being used for operational uses, such as a position, it could
cause issues because the EDA would rely on the funds coming through.
Buesgens asked if positions could be funded through the general fund instead of the EDA levy so
that it would not have to be relied on having the EDA funds to come through. Kloiber replied that
about $200,000 of the general fund is transferred to Community Development fund 201 to pay for
planning functions that are not covered by fees. General funds are not paying for any EDA
functions.
Buesgens asked the EDA if they should increase the percentage. The commissioners agreed that
the percentage should be increased. Spriggs added that the goal was to save up more for future
projects.
Buesgens proposed doing raising the EDA Levy to $375,000 and the HRA levy to $425,000.

BUSINESS ITEMS
Forney mentioned that the City owns a property north of Pepe. Pepe is looking to purchase a small
garage and would like to see if the EDA would be interested in selling the lot. The owner is interested in
building a restaurant and event space. Staff believe it is highly unlikely, but if the EDA is interested in
having a restaurant in the area, Staff could speak with the buyer. The owner of Pepe’s would need to
demolish the garage and turn it into a restaurant.
James asked what the value of the property would be if it were sold. Forney replied that they did not
know.
Buesgens stated the lot was not big enough and suggested holding onto the property. Szurek agreed.

AGENDA SECTION BUSINESS ITEMS
MEETING DATE 10/07/2024
ITEM: Façade Improvement Grant Report for Klash Drums located at 3988 Central Ave
DEPARTMENT: Community Development BY/DATE: Mitchell Forney 10-2-24
BACKGROUND:
This report pertains to 2024 Façade Improvement Grant application for 3988 Central Ave. The
property/business owner is applying for the façade improvement grant to refurbish its wall sign and replace
two vinal awnings, one on 40th Ave and one on Central. A rendering of the proposed panel sign replacement
has been included in the packet. The owner was able to receive one bid. In the attempt to ruse the current
signage structures the property owner sought a bid from the original installer. The bid came in at $5,766,
which sets them up for a grant amount of $2,883. Community Development Staff recommend funding the
project in full as it is a great re-use of existing signage and improves on the current conditions to reflect the
new business at this location. Klash has been in operation since approximately June but has yet to update its
signage to reflect the new business.
The EDA has approved 7 façade improvement grant applications, approving $34,244 this year with $2,883
being asked for at this meeting. This leaves $12,873 in Façade Improvement Grant funds for the remainder of
the year.
RECOMMENDED MOTION(S):
MOTION: Move to waive the reading of Resolution 2024-25, there being ample copies available to the
public.
MOTION: Move to adopt Resolution 2024-25, a resolution approving the form and substance of the façade
improvement grant agreement, and approving authority staff and officials to take all actions necessary to
enter the authority into a façade improvement grant agreement with the owner of Klash Drums.

ITEM: Approval of Demolition Contract for 4416 Central Ave
DEPARTMENT: Community Development BY/DATE: Mitchell Forney, 10-3-24
BACKGROUND:
Earlier this year, the EDA purchased the property located at 4416 Central Ave to hold the site for
redevelopment. In July the EDA partnered with the nonprofit Better Futures to deconstruct the garage and
various finishes within the home. At first the fire department had expressed its interest in utilizing the
property for a training burn. After further review the fire department decided that the home was to close to
the neighboring property to conduct a burn without possible damaging the other home. The fire department
will still utilize the home for training as the EDA prepares it for demolition.
Staff prepared bid sheets and submitted bid requests to several contractors and received six bids. To make the
project easier to bid on, the EDA had taken on the environmental testing and removal of all personal items
and hazardous materials from the building. As part of the demolition bid , the contractor is responsible for the
removal of all outbuildings and site improvements on the property. This also includes the removal and capping
of the water and sewer lines at the property line to prepare the site for redevelopment. Below is a chart
outlining the bids and bid amounts received. Staff recommend awarding the project to the low bidder Nitti
Rolloff Services for $21,296.5.
Company Name Bid Amount
Rick’s Demolition and Concrete Removal $28,750
Rachel Contracting $47,200
Kamish Excavating Inc $33,740
Scherber Co $28,222
Nitti Rolloff Services $21,296.5
Lloyd’s Construction $34,890
RECOMMENDED MOTION(S):
MOTION: Move to accept the proposal from Nitti Rolloff Services, in the amount of $21,296.5 for the
demolition of all buildings and site improvements, the cutting and capping of all utilities at the property
line, and the regrading of the lot located at 4416 Central Ave NE; and furthermore, to authorize the
President and Executive Director to enter into an agreement for the same.
