MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor & City Council
FROM: Phil Hals, Street/Park Supt.
DATE:
June 29, 1998
SUBJECT: Restricting Heavy Truck Traffic on New
Overlays
At the public hearing on June 8, 1998, area residents from Victoria Lane
expressed concerns for the proposed overlay because another resident
maneuvers a fully loaded semi tractor and trailer from the road onto his
property. Staff is researching an ordinance change that could address this
issue, but, as a protective measure, I would ask the City Council to authorize
posting Victoria Lane to 5 Ton axle weight limits until winter freeze up.
A copy of this memo and the agenda have been sent to the truck owner and
the other residents of Victoria Lane so that they will have an opportunity to
appear before the Council for this item.

HOUSING PROGRAM RELATING TO TItE
ISSUANCE OF CITY OF ELK RIVER REVENUE BONDS
UNDER MINNESOTA STATUES, CHAPTER 462C, IN PART
FOR THE FINANCING AND REFINANCING OF ELDERLY ttOUSING
DEVELOPMENTS, ON BEHALF OF
EVANS PARK, INC.
1. Local Housing Policy... The City's housing policies are currently set
forth in the City's Comprehensive Plan and in related plans and documents. This Homing
Program has been developed pursuant thereto, all in accordance with and as contemplated by
Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C, as amended (sometimes referred to herein as the "Act").
Under the Act, the City, prior to issuing revenue bonds or other obligations with respect to a
multi-family housing development, as described in Section 462C.05, subd. 4, thereof, or a
combination health care and elderly housing development, as described in Section 462C.05,
subd. 7, is to adopt a program setting forth the information required by the Act, including but
not limited to Section 462C.05, Subd. 6, of the Act. This Program advances the City's stated
housing goals by enhancing and increasing the City's supply of affordable rental housing
facilities for elderly persons at reasonable rental rates, and t.hrough the renovation, upgrading
and improvemen._t of the City's existing housing facilities, ail as authorized, contemplated and
prescribed by th~ Ac~. '~ ~'- '
2. Program. This Housing Program comprises an effort by the City to
advance its housing and related health care goals by providing financing and refinancing for
the elderly housing developments described in paragraph 4 below (sometimes referred to
herein generally in the aggregate as the "Facilities"). The proposed refinancing of a portion
of the Facilities is anticipated to produce debt service savings that will permit the
maintenance of rates and charges at the most reasonably affordable levels. The proposed
construction, rehabilitation and improvement of the Facilities is expected to increase the
City's supply of affordable rental housing facilities for elderly persons and to maintain and
enhance the quality and livability of the Facilities for residents. The method of financing to
be advanced for this Program shall consist of the issuance of revenue bonds (the "Bonds") by
the City, on behalf of the jurisdictions listed in Exhibit 1 hereto (the "Participating
Jurisdictions"), pursuant to the provisions of the Act and a j oint powers agreement to be
entered into between the Issuer and the Participating Jurisdictions under the provisions of
Minnesota Statutes, Section 471.59, as amended (the "Joint Powers Agreement"). The
proceeds of the Bonds will be loaned to the entities named in Exhibit 2 hereto (the
"Borrowers") pursuant to individual loan agreements with the City to provide for the
repayment of each Borrower's loan. A portion of the proceeds of the Bonds (the "Evans
Park Loan") shall be loaned to Evans Park, Inc., a Minnesota nonprofit corporation (referred
to herein as "Evans Park"), to provide permanent financing and refinancing for the Facilities,
and repayment of the Evans Park Loan shall be provided for by Evans Park entering into a
loan agreement with respect to the Facilities (the "Evans Park Loan Agreement"). Under the
Evans Park Loan Agreement, Evans Park will agree to make or cause to be made payments
sufficient to provide for payment in full of all principal of, premium, if any, and interest on
the Evans Park Loan when due. Additional security may be provided for the Bonds as
determined by the original purchasers of the Bonds, including loan agreements and security
agreements from the other Borrowers. Of the $15,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
Bonds to be issued under the Joint Powers Agreement, the amount of the Evans Park Loan is
to be not in excess of $9,000,000. This Housing Program consists, in part, of the refinancing
of taxable mortgage indebtedness currently outstanding with respect to a portion of the
Facilities and the rehabilitation, renovation, improvement and equipping of such Facilities.
With respect to each aspect of this Program involving the refinancing of taxable indebtedness
of Evans Park, Evans Park will undertake at least the minimum amount of rehabilitation with
respect to such aspect of the Program as is required under Section 462C.05, subd. 1. It is
anticipated that the timetable for the financing will be carried out on an expedited basis and
be concluded by not later than the end of the current calendar year. This Program is
contemplated to be undertaken pursuant to Section 462C.05, subds. 4 and 7, of the Act and,
therefore, it is contemplated that there shall be no specific limitation on the gross income of
the occupants. Program requirements as to the Facilities are to be monitored by the City or
private parties, as will be provided in the applicable agreements to be entered into in
connection with the issuance of the Bonds.
3."- -Need for the Program. This Program-ia'needed as a means of
implementing the City's stated housing goals, as provided in the Act and the City's
Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan recognizes and is consistent with a goal of
maintaining and improving the number of units of affordable housing for elderly persons and
families in the City. Finally, the City believes that accomplishment of its housing goals
should occur through private development, supported by government financing programs.
By virtue of issuing the Bonds and providing financing and refinancing for the Facilities, the
City will be assisting in the improvement of and the reduction of the overall costs of
operating the Facilities.
4. Description 0f Facilities. The Facilities which are to be the subject of
the proposed financing consist of the existing 36-unit rental housing facility for the elderly
located at 300 Evans Avenue in the City (commonly known as "Evans Park"), together with
an approximately 60-unit assisted living facility to be developed and to be located at Joplin
Street and U.S. Highway 10, in the City (all of such facilities being referred to in the
aggregate as the "Facilities"). The existing Facilities are currently owned by, and the new
Facilities will be owned by, Evans Park, Inc., a Minnesota nonprofit corporation (referred to
herein as the "Borrower"). It is anticipated that the proceeds of the Bonds may also be used,
in part, to pay for certain costs of issuance of the Bonds, to the extent such costs are
reasonable and are within an amount equal to 2.00% of the proceeds of the Bonds, and to
fund necessary reserves, including a debt service reserve fund. Issuance costs in excess of
E-2 :
available bond proceeds are to be paid for by the Participating Borrowers from funds other
than proceeds of the Bonds.
