RECORD OF ORDINANCES Dayton Legal Blank, Inc. Form No. 30043 52-15 Page 4 of 5 Ordinance No. Pa tied 20 Section 11. Effective Date. This Ordinance is declared to be an emergency measure necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety, and welfare of the City, due to the benefits resulting from implementation of the Project's r-" transportation improvements, as well as the numerous benefits to the City's overall economic health and competitiveness, the benefits to the quality of life of its residents, and the critical timing and seasonality considerations associated with the project's construction and leasing; wherefore, this Ordinance shall be in full force and effect immediately upon its passage; provided, however, Section 3 of this Ordinance is effective as to each Parcel commencing with the first tax year an Improvement to that Parcel attributable to a new structure appears on the tax list and duplicate (regardless of tax exempt status).

McDaniel, City Mana Date: August 6, 2015 Initiated By: Angel L. Mumma, Director of Finance Memo Re: Ordinance No. 52-15 — Establishing a Tax Increment Financing District (Bridge Park) Background In conjunction with Ordinance No. 44-15, which authorizes the City Manager to enter into a Development Agreement with Crawford Hoying Development Partners, LLC ("Developer's for the development of property within the Bridge Street District ("BSD', and Ordinance No. 45-15, which authorizes the establishment of the Bridge Park Incentive District, Ordinance 52-15 proposes the establishment of the Bridge Park Tax Increment Financing District for Blocks C and Z within the Bridge Park development. This particular Ordinance would establish a TIF under the provision of ORC 5709.41 on the parcels within Blocks C and Z (identified in Exhibit A to the Ordinance). This section of ORC permits the legislative authority of a municipal corporation to declare any improvement to a parcel of real property to be a public purpose if (1) the municipal corporation held fee title to the parcel prior to the adoption of the ordinance and (2) the parcel is leased, or the fee of the parcel is conveyed, to any person either before or after adoption of the ordinance. Service payments generated on improvements to parcels within this type of TIF are permitted to be used to finance public and private improvements. This is the second TIF established within the City under this section of ORC, with the first created as part of the Tuller Flats project. If Council approves the Development Agreement on Monday, August 10, 2015, Staff, legal counsel and the property owner, Crawford Hoying will begin the process of transferring ownership of the parcels within the proposed 5709.41 TIF so that the City can prove that it held fee title to the parcels prior to adoption of this particular Ordinance. As the platting occurs on the other development blocks, Staff will bring forward additional Ordinances to create additional TIFs under 5709.41 as development progresses and the incentive contingencies under the Development Agreement are met. TIFs created under 5709.41 will be the base TIFs for the Bridge Park development with the Incentive District TIF (created under ORC 5709.40(c) — Ordinance 45-15) being "layered" on top, applying only to those '"residential" properties. It is acceptable that the geography of these two TIFs will overlap which will allow flexibility in the future for any of the owner -occupied residential units (i.e. condominiums) to be converted to apartments without losing TIF revenues. The service payments generated within the Bridge Park TIFs will be used to fund the public roadway improvements, parking garages and a conference/events facility. The Development Agreement, and more specifically, Exhibit E, "Application of Service Payments and NCA Revenues," indicates how the service payments generated from the improvements will be applied. Memo re. Ordinance No. 52-15 — Establishing a Tax Increment Financing District (Bridge Park) August 6, 2015 Page 2 of 2 This proposed TIF is within the defined area covered by the Bridge Street District Cooperative Agreement between the Dublin City School District (DCS) and the City. As a reminder, the Cooperative Agreement permits the City to authorize various tax incentives, including TIFs, within the BSD that provide for the following (for each incentive authorized): ■ Years 1-15 — DCS agrees to forego 100% of the applicable real estate taxes in respect of the improvements to any particular parcel within the applicable tax incentive district. ■ Years 16-30 — DCS will receive 10% of what it would have received if the applicable tax incentive district had not been in place. Additionally, as part of the Cooperative Agreement, DCS waived any right to receive notification of the passage of any Ordinance or legislation authorizing the real property tax exemptions. However, staff has notified Dublin City Schools that this new TIF within the Bridge Street District is being considered by City Council. Recommendation Staff recommends that Ordinance No. 52-15 be adopted as an Emergency by City Council at the second reading/public hearing on August 24, 2015. EXHIBIT A IDENTIFICATION AND MAP OF THE PARCELS The shaded area on the following map specifically identifies and depicts the Parcels and constitutes part of this EXHIBIT A. The Parcels include, without limitation, the following tax parcels: and (as they existed in the County Auditor's records on , 2015), and are included for ease of reference only.
