-9-
(a) a special trust fund called the “Starostka Redevelopment Project Bond Fund” (the “Bond

the time of the receipt by the Authority of such request, the Authority shall notify the owner of the
Bond and such owner may deposit an amount sufficient to pay such request with the Authority for
such payment. As set forth in the Resolution, if the Redeveloper is the owner of the Bond and the

Section 6.01 General Remedies of Authority and Redeveloper.

Section 6.02 Additional Remedies of Authority
In the event that (each such event an "event of default"):
(a) the Redeveloper, or its successor in interest, shall fail to commence the
construction of the infrastructure improvements included in the Project Costs on or before
October 1, 2019, or shall abandon construction work related to the Project Costs, once
commenced, for any period of 180 days, excepting delays caused by inclement weather,
(b) the Redeveloper, shall fail to pay real estate taxes or assessments on the
Redevelopment Project Property owned by the Redeveloper or any part thereof when due;
and
(c) there is a violation of any other provision of this Redevelopment Contract,
and such failure or action by the Redeveloper has not been cured within 90 days following
written notice from Authority, then the Redeveloper shall be in default of this
Redevelopment Contract.
In the event of such failure to perform, breach or default occurs and is not cured in the
period herein provided, the parties agree that the damages caused to the Authority would be
difficult to determine with certainty and that a reasonable estimation of the amount of damages
that could be incurred is the amount of the grant to Redeveloper pursuant to Section 3.04 of this
Redevelopment Contract, less any reductions in the principal amount of the Indebtedness, plus
interest on such amounts as provided herein (the "Liquidated Damages Amount"). Upon the
occurrence of an event of default, the Liquidated Damages Amount shall be paid by Redeveloper
to Authority within 30 days of demand from Authority given to the Redeveloper.
Interest shall accrue on the Liquidated Damages Amount at the rate of three percent (3%)
per annum and interest shall commence from the date that the Authority gives notice to the
Redeveloper demanding payment.
Payment of the Liquidated Damages Amount shall not relieve Redeveloper of its
obligation to pay real estate taxes or assessments with respect to the Redevelopment Project
Property and the Project.
Redeveloper, on or before contracting for work included within the Project Costs, shall
furnish to the Authority copies of labor and materials payment bonds and performance bonds for
each contract entered into by Redeveloper related to Project Costs. Each such bond shall show
the Authority and the City as well as the Redeveloper as beneficiary of any such bond, as and to
the extent commercially obtainable (as determined in the discretion of the Authority). In
addition, the Redeveloper shall provide a penal bond with good and sufficient surety to be
approved by the Authority, conditioned that the Redeveloper shall at all times promptly make
payments of all amounts lawfully due to all persons supplying or furnishing to any contractor or
his or her subcontractors (for each contract entered into by Redeveloper related to Project Costs)
with labor or materials performed or used in the prosecution of the work provided for in such
contract, and will indemnify and save harmless the Authority to the extent of any payments in
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 37 / 91
Starostka Contracting Fifth Street-Contract
-14-
connection with the carrying out of such contracts which the Authority may be required to make
under the law.
Section 6.03 Remedies in the Event of Other Redeveloper Defaults.
In the event the Redeveloper fails to perform any other provisions of this Redevelopment
Contract (other than those specific provisions contained in Section 6.02), the Redeveloper shall
be in default. In such an instance, the Authority may seek to enforce the terms of this
Redevelopment Contract or exercise any other remedies that may be provided in this
Redevelopment Contract or by applicable law; provided, however, that any defaults covered by
this Section shall not give rise to a right or rescission on termination of this Redevelopment
Contract, and shall not be covered by the Liquidated Damages Amount.
Section 6.04 Forced Delay Beyond Party's Control.
For the purposes of any of the provisions of this Redevelopment Contract, neither the
Authority nor the Redeveloper, as the case may be, nor any successor in interest, shall be
considered in breach of or default in its obligations with respect to the conveyance or preparation
of the Redevelopment Area or any part thereof for redevelopment, or the beginning and
completion of construction of the Project, or progress in respect thereto, in the event of forced
delay in the performance of such obligations due to unforeseeable causes beyond its control and
without its fault or negligence, including, but not restricted to, acts of God, or of the public
enemy, acts of the Government, acts of the other party, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine
restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, and unusually severe weather or delays in subcontractors
due to such causes; it being the purpose and intent of this provision that in the event of the
occurrence of any such forced delay, the time or times for performance of the obligations of the
Authority or of the Redeveloper with respect to construction of the Project, as the case may be,
shall be extended for the period of the forced delay: Provided, that the party seeking the benefit
of the provisions of this section shall, within thirty (30) days after the beginning of any such
forced delay, have first notified the other party thereto in writing, and of the cause or causes
thereof and requested an extension for the period of the forced delay.
Section 6.05 Limitations of Liability; Indemnification.
Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI or this Redevelopment Contract to the
contrary, neither the City, the Authority, nor their respective elected officials, officers, directors,
appointed officials, employees, agents or their governing bodies shall have any pecuniary
obligation or monetary liability under this Redevelopment Contract. The sole obligation of the
Authority under this Redevelopment Contract shall be the issuance of the Indebtedness and
granting of a portion of the proceeds thereof to Redeveloper, and full compliance with the terms
specifically set forth Article III hereof and payment of TIF Revenues pledged pursuant to the
Resolution. The Redeveloper releases the City and Authority from, agrees that neither the City
nor Authority shall be liable for, and agrees to indemnify and hold the City and Authority
harmless from any liability for any loss or damage to property or any injury to or death of any
person that may be occasioned by any cause whatsoever pertaining to the Project.

Issue stated above, or the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly

December 1 of each year until payment in full of such Principal Amount, beginning June 1, 2021, by
check or draft mailed to the Registered Owner hereof as shown on the bond registration books maintained
by the Registrar on the 15th day of the month preceding the month in which the applicable interest
payment date occurs, at such Owner’s address as it appears on such bond registration books. The
principal of this Bond and the interest hereon are payable in any coin or currency which on the respective
dates of payment thereof is legal tender for the payment of debts due the United States of America.
This Bond is issued by the Authority under the authority of and in full compliance with the
Constitution and statutes of the State of Nebraska, including particularly Article VIII, Section 12 of the
Nebraska Constitution, Sections 18-2101 to 18-2153, inclusive, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, as
amended, and under and pursuant to Resolution No. ________ duly passed and adopted by the Authority on
_____________, 2019, as from time to time amended and supplemented (the “Resolution”).
THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THIS BOND IS SET FORTH IN SCHEDULE 1
ATTACHED HERETO. THE MAXIMUM PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THIS BOND IS 1,165,090.
This Bond is a special limited obligation of the Authority payable as to principal and interest solely
from and is secured solely by the Revenue (as defined in the Resolution) and certain other money, funds and
securities pledged under the Resolution, all on the terms and conditions set forth in the Resolution. The
Revenue represents that portion of ad valorem taxes levied by public bodies of the State of Nebraska,
including the City, on real property in the Project Area (as defined in this Resolution) which is in excess of
that portion of such ad valorem taxes produced by the levy at the rate fixed each year by or for each such
public body upon the valuation of the Project Area as of a certain date and as has been certified by the
County Assessor of Hall County, Nebraska to the City in accordance with law.
Reference is hereby made to the Resolution for the provisions, among others, with respect to the
collection and disposition of certain tax and other revenues, the special funds charged with and pledged to
the payment of the principal of and interest on this Bond, the nature and extent of the security thereby
created, the terms and conditions under which this Bond has been issued, the rights and remedies of the
Registered Owner of this Bond, and the rights, duties, immunities and obligations of the City and the
Authority. By the acceptance of this Bond, the Registered Owner assents to all of the provisions of the
Resolution.
The principal of and interest hereon shall not be payable from the general funds of the City nor the
Authority nor shall this Bond constitute a legal or equitable pledge, charge, lien, security interest or
encumbrance upon any of the property or upon any of the income, receipts, or money and securities of the
City or the Authority or of any other party other than those specifically pledged under the Resolution. This
Bond is not a debt of the City or the Authority within the meaning of any constitutional, statutory or charter
limitation upon the creation of general obligation indebtedness of the City or the Authority, and does not
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 45 / 91
Starostka Contracting Fifth Street-Contract
-22-
impose any general liability upon the City or the Authority and neither the City nor the Authority shall be
liable for the payment hereof out of any funds of the City or the Authority other than the Revenues and other
funds pledged under the Resolution, which Revenues and other funds have been and hereby are pledged to
the punctual payment of the principal of and interest on this Bond in accordance with the provisions of this
Resolution.
The Registered Owner may from time to time enter the respective amounts advanced pursuant to
the terms of the Resolution under the column headed “Principal Amount Advanced” on Schedule 1 hereto
(the “Table”) and may enter the aggregate principal amount of this Bond then outstanding under the column
headed “Cumulative Outstanding Principal Amount” on the Table. On each date upon which a portion of
the Cumulative Outstanding Principal Amount is paid to the Registered Owner pursuant to the redemption
provisions of the Resolution, the Registered Owner may enter the principal amount paid on this Bond under
the column headed “Principal Amount Redeemed” on the Table and may enter the then outstanding
principal amount of this Bond under the column headed “Cumulative Outstanding Principal Amount” on the
Table. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the records maintained by the Trustee as to the principal amount
issued and principal amounts paid on this Bond shall be the official records of the Cumulative Outstanding
Principal Amount of this Bond for all purposes.
Reference is hereby made to the Resolution, a copy of which is on file in the office of the City
Clerk, and to all of the provisions of which each Owner of this Bond by its acceptance hereof hereby
assents, for definitions of terms; the description of and the nature and extent of the security for this Bond;
the Revenue and other money and securities pledged to the payment of the principal of and interest on this
Bond; the nature and extent and manner of enforcement of the pledge; the conditions upon which the
Resolution may be amended or supplemented with or without the consent of the Owner of this Bond; the
rights, duties and obligations of the Authority and the Registrar thereunder; the terms and provisions upon
which the liens, pledges, charges, trusts and covenants made therein may be discharged at or prior to the
maturity or redemption of this Bond, and this Bond thereafter no longer be secured by the Resolution or be
deemed to be outstanding thereunder, if money or certain specified securities shall have been deposited with
the Registrar sufficient and held in trust solely for the payment hereof; and for the other terms and
provisions thereof.
This Bond is subject to redemption prior to maturity, at the option of the Authority, in whole or in
part at any time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued
interest on such principal amount to the date fixed for redemption. Reference is hereby made to the
Resolution for a description of the redemption procedures and the notice requirements pertaining thereto.
In the event this Bond is called for prior redemption, notice of such redemption shall be given by
first-class mail to the Registered Owner hereof at its address as shown on the registration books maintained
by the Registrar not less than 10 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, unless waived by the Registered
Owner hereof. If this Bond, or any portion thereof, shall have been duly called for redemption and notice of
such redemption duly given as provided, then upon such redemption date the portion of this Bond so
redeemed shall become due and payable and if money for the payment of the portion of the Bond so
redeemed and the accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption shall be held for the purpose of
such payment by the Registrar, interest shall cease to accrue and become payable hereon from and after the
redemption date.
This Bond is transferable by the Registered Owner hereof in person or by its attorney or legal
representative duly authorized in writing at the principal office of the Registrar, but only in the manner,
subject to the limitations and upon payment of the charges provided in the Resolution, and upon surrender
and cancellation of this Bond. Upon such transfer, a new Bond of the same series and maturity and for the

same principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor. The Authority and the
Registrar may deem and treat the Registered Owner hereof as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of
receiving payment of or on account of principal of and interest due hereon and for all other purposes.
This bond is being issued as a registered bond without coupons. This bond is subject to exchange
as provided in the Resolution.
It is hereby certified, recited and declared that all acts, conditions and things required to have
happened, to exist and to have been performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Bond have happened,
do exist and have been performed in regular and due time, form and manner; that this Bond does not exceed
any constitutional, statutory or charter limitation on indebtedness; and that provision has been made for the
payment of the principal of and interest on this Bond as provided in this Resolution.

Redevelopment Plan Amendment
Grand Island CRA Area 1
April 2019
The Community Redevelopment Authority (CRA) of the City of Grand Island
intends to amend the Redevelopment Plan for Area 1 with in the city, pursuant to
the Nebraska Community Development Law (the “Act”) and provide for the
financing of a specific infrastructure related project in Area 1.
Executive Summary:
Project Description
THE REDEVELOPMENT PROPERTY LOCATED NORTH OF FOURTH STREET
BETWEEN CONGDON AVENUE AND WILLOW STREETS FOR RESIDENTIAL
USES, INCLUDING ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY, SITE WORK, SEWER, SEWER
WATER, STORM SEWER AND STREETS AND DEMOLITION OF AN EXISTING
STRUCTURE AND CONSTRUCTION OF UP TO 20 NEW SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENCES.
The use of Tax Increment Financing to aid in expenses associated with
redevelopment of the property located at between Willow Street and Congdon
Avenue along 5th Street extended from a vacant storage lot and single residence to a
20 lot residential subdivision. The use of Tax Increment Financing is an integral
part of the development plan and necessary to make this project affordable. The
project will result in developing a piece of property that the City staff including the
planning department and Community Development staff have been interested in
seeing developed since the early 2000’s. This property did not have access to City
sewer and could not be developed without the extension of the sewer. The property
has been used for a single house and as an industrial storage yard. The developers
will ask the city to amend the comprehensive plan to show all of the property as
planned for low to medium density residential and to rezone the property for
residential uses. This project as proposed would not be possible without the use of
TIF.
Starostka Contracting LLC will be acquiring this property and is proposing to subdivide
the property after rezoning into 20 residential lots for the development of two and three
bedroom single family homes. The existing residential unit is currently vacant and the
remaining property has been used for outdoor storage of construction materials. The
developer is responsible for and has provided evidence that they can secure adequate
debt-financing to cover the costs associated with this project. The Grand Island
Community Redevelopment Authority (CRA) intends to pledge the ad valorem taxes
generated for up to 15 years for a period beginning January 1, 2021 towards the allowable
costs and associated financing project.

Existing Land Use and Subject Property
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 56 / 91
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING TO PAY FOR THE REHABILITATION OF THE
PROPERTY WILL COME FROM THE FOLLOWING REAL PROPERTY:
Property Description (the “Redevelopment Project Area”)
Hall County Assessor Parcels 400059800, 400059819, 400059835 and 400059827
Legal Descriptions: All of Lots 11 and 12 and part of Lot 13 and Lot 14 of Lambert’s
Subdivision in the City of Grand Island, Hall County, Nebraska. This property will be
replatted prior to contract approval
The tax increment will be captured for the tax years for which the payments become
delinquent in years 2021 through 2038 inclusive with no property extending beyond
the 15 maximum.
The real property ad valorem taxes on the current valuation will continue to be paid
to the normal taxing entities. The increase will come from the development of the 20
lots and construction of the houses over an anticipated period of five years. The
property will need to be rezoned prior to construction and development.
Statutory Pledge of Taxes.
In accordance with Section 18-2147 of the Act and the terms of the Resolution
providing for the issuance of the TIF Note, the Authority hereby provides that any ad
valorem tax on the Redevelopment Project Area for the benefit of any public body be
divided for a period of up to 15 years after the effective date of this provision as set forth
in the Redevelopment Contract, consistent with this Redevelopment Plan. Said taxes
shall be divided as follows:
a. That portion of the ad valorem tax which is produced by levy at the rate
fixed each year by or for each public body upon the redevelopment project valuation shall
be paid into the funds, of each such public body in the same proportion as all other taxes
collected by or for the bodies; and
b. That portion of the ad valorem tax on real property in the
redevelopment project in excess of such amount, if any, shall be allocated to and, when
collected, paid into a special fund of the Authority to pay the principal of; the interest on,
and any premiums due in connection with the bonds, loans, notes, or advances on money
to, or indebtedness incurred by, whether funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise,such
Authority for financing or refinancing, in whole or in part, a redevelopment project.
When such bonds, loans, notes, advances of money, or indebtedness including interest
and premium due have been paid, the Authority shall so notify the County Assessor and
County Treasurer and all ad valorem taxes upon real property in such redevelopment
project shall be paid into the funds of the respective public bodies.
Pursuant to Section 18-2150 of the Act, the ad valorem tax so divided is hereby pledged
to the repayment of loans or advances of money, or the incurring of any indebtedness,
whether funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise, by the CRA to finance or refinance, in
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 57 / 91
whole or in part, the redevelopment project, including the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on such bonds, loans, notes, advances, or indebtedness.
Redevelopment Plan Amendment Complies with the Act:
The Community Development Law requires that a Redevelopment Plan and Project
consider and comply with a number of requirements. This Plan Amendment meets the
statutory qualifications as set forth below.
1. The Redevelopment Project Area has been declared blighted and substandard by
action of the Grand Island City Council on December 19, 2000.[§18-2109] Such
declaration was made after a public hearing with full compliance with the public
notice requirements of §18-2115 of the Act.
2. Conformation to the General Plan for the Municipality as a whole. [§18-2103 (13)
(a) and §18-2110]
Grand Island adopted a Comprehensive Plan on July 13, 2004. This redevelopment plan
amendment and project are substantially consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Prior
to approval of a contract for redevelopment the developer will request a modification to
the Grand Island Comprehensive plan Future Land Use Map to show that this entire
property is planned for residential development and for a change in zoning to a residential
zoning district.The Hall County Regional Planning Commission held a public hearing at
their meeting on May 1, 2019 and passed Resolution 2019-09 confirming that this project
will be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Grand Island as amended.
3. The Redevelopment Plan must be sufficiently complete to address the following
items: [§18-2103(13) (b)]
a. Land Acquisition:
The Redevelopment Plan for Area 1 provides for real property acquisition and this plan
amendment does not prohibit such acquisition. The developer is proposing to acquire the
property on a per lot basis from the current owners.. There is no proposed acquisition by
the authority.
b. Demolition and Removal of Structures:
The project to be implemented does involve demolition of one residential structure and a
garage. Based on the records from the Hall County Assessor’s office the house was
constructed in 1926 and the condition is badly worn..
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 58 / 91
City of Grand Island Future Land Use Map
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 59 / 91
c. Future Land Use Plan
See the attached map from the 2004 Grand Island Comprehensive Plan. All of the area
around the site in private ownership is planned for low to medium density residential and
manufacturing development. It is anticipated that the future land use map will be
modified to reflect residential development across the entire site prior to approval of this
plan or any redevelopment contract. This property is in private ownership. [§18-2103(b)
and §18-2111]
d. Changes to zoning, street layouts and grades or building codes or ordinances or
other Planning changes.
The area is zoned M-2 Heavy Manufacturing zone. It is anticipated that this property will
be rezoned to R-3SL medium density small lot residential zone prior to or along with the
approval of this plan. No changes are anticipated in street layouts or grades. No changes
are anticipated in building codes or ordinances. Nor are any other planning changes
contemplated. [§18-2103(b) and §18-2111]
e. Site Coverage and Intensity of Use
The developer is proposing to increase the number of dwelling units on the property from
one to twenty and convert open storage space to residential lots. The size of the building
and lot coverage will increase, but remain in conformance with the applicable regulations
regarding site coverage and intensity of use for the proposed zoning district. [§18-
2103(b) and §18-2111]
f. Additional Public Facilities or Utilities
Sewer and water are available to support this development. Sewer is currently being
extended to this property through an assessment district. This project will result in an
increased in the number of services provided in the district and lower the overall cost of
each service. This will result in lower assessment for the other properties participating in
the district. Water is available to the subdivision and will be extended to all of the lots.
Electric utilities are sufficient for the proposed use of this building.
No other utilities would be impacted by the development.
The developer will be responsible for replacing any sidewalks damaged during
construction of the project.
No other utilities would be impacted by the development. [§18-2103(b) and §18-2111]
4. The Act requires a Redevelopment Plan provide for relocation of individuals and
families displaced as a result of plan implementation. The existing house on this
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 60 / 91
property was vacant prior to consideration of this paln. No relocation is
contemplated or necessary. [§18-2103.02]
5. No member of the Authority, nor any employee thereof holds any interest in any
property in this Redevelopment Project Area. [§18-2106] No members of the
authority or staff of the CRA have any interest in this property.
6. Section 18-2114 of the Act requires that the Authority consider:
a. Method and cost of acquisition and preparation for redevelopment and estimated
proceeds from disposal to redevelopers.
The estimated costs for this project including acquisition are $2,367,000. Site
acquisition is expected to cost $401,500 on a per lot basis. Site improvements including:
tree removal, utility improvements, sidewalks and other flat concrete of $587,565.
Architectural and Engineering planning services of $61,250 and are included as a TIF
eligible expense. Legal, Developer and Audit Fees including a reimbursement to the City
and the CRA of $114,775 are included as TIF eligible expense. The total of eligible
expenses for this project is $1,165,090.
The developer will provide and secure all necessary financing.
b. Statement of proposed method of financing the redevelopment project.
The developer will provide all necessary financing for the project. The Authority will
assist the project by granting the sum of $1,165,090 from the proceeds of the TIF. This
indebtedness will be repaid from the Tax Increment Revenues generated from the project.
TIF revenues shall be made available to repay the original debt and associated interest
after January 1, 2021 through December 2039.
c. Statement of feasible method of relocating displaced families.
No families will be displaced as a result of this plan.
7. Section 18-2113 of the Act requires:
Prior to recommending a redevelopment plan to the governing body for approval, an
authority shall consider whether the proposed land uses and building requirements in the
redevelopment project area are designed with the general purpose of accomplishing, in
conformance with the general plan, a coordinated, adjusted, and harmonious development
of the city and its environs which will, in accordance with present and future needs,
promote health, safety, morals, order, convenience, prosperity, and the general welfare, as
well as efficiency and economy in the process of development, including, among other
things, adequate provision for traffic, vehicular parking, the promotion of safety from
fire, panic, and other dangers, adequate provision for light and air, the promotion of the
healthful and convenient distribution of population, the provision of adequate
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 61 / 91
transportation, water, sewerage, and other public utilities, schools, parks, recreational and
community facilities, and other public requirements, the promotion of sound design and
arrangement, the wise and efficient expenditure of public funds, and the prevention of the
recurrence of insanitary or unsafe dwelling accommodations or conditions of blight.
The Authority has considered these elements in proposing this Plan Amendment. This
amendment, in and of itself will promote consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. This
will have the intended result of preventing recurring elements of unsafe buildings and
blighting conditions. This will develop a vacant and underutilize property with 10 brand
new single family dwelling units in a manner consistent with the goals of the 2014
Housing Study for the City of Grand Island.
8. Time Frame for Development
Development of this project is anticipated to be completed between July 2019 and
December of 2024. Excess valuation should be available for this project for up to 15
years on each house beginning with the 2020 tax year.
9. Justification of Project
This property has been in the Grand Island municipal limits and largely undeveloped for
more than 100 years. The proposed construction will provide new quality housing in an
existing neighborhood and remove a structure contributing to blight within the
neighborhood.
10. Cost Benefit Analysis Section 18-2113 of the Act, further requires the Authority
conduct a cost benefit analysis of the plan amendment in the event that Tax Increment
Financing will be used. This analysis must address specific statutory issues.
As authorized in the Nebraska Community Development Law, §18-2147, Neb. Rev. Stat.
(2012), the City of Grand Island has analyzed the costs and benefits of the proposed
Redevelopment Project, including:
Project Sources and Uses. Public funds from tax increment financing in the amount of
$1,165,090 provided by the Grand Island Community Redevelopment Authority will be
required to complete the project. This investment by the Authority will leverage
$3,805,125 in private sector financing and equity investment; a private investment of
$3.27 for every TIF dollar invested.
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 62 / 91
Use of Funds Source of Funds.
Description TIF Funds Private Funds Total
Site Acquisition $401,500 $401,500
Legal and Plan* $114,775 $114,775
Engineering/Arch $61,250 $61,250
Financing $364,125 $364,125

Sanitary Sewer $129,680 $129,680
Water $80,163 $80,163
Storm Sewer $27,295 $27,295
Grading/Paving $300,783 $300,783
New Construction $3,400,000 $3,400,000
Contingency $41,000 $41,000
TOTALS $1,165,090 $3,805,125 $4,970,215
Tax Revenue. The property to be redeveloped has January 1, 2019, valuation of
approximately $60,373. Based on the 2018 levy this would result in a real property tax of
approximately $1,360. It is anticipated that the assessed value will increase by
$4,038,000 upon full completion, as a result of the site redevelopment. This development
will result in an estimated tax increase of over $84,075 annually. The tax increment
gained from this Redevelopment Project Area would not be available for use as city
general tax revenues, for a period of 15 years, or such shorter time as may be required to
amortize the TIF bond, but would be used for eligible private redevelopment costs to
enable this project to be realized.
Estimated 2019 assessed value: $ 60,373
Estimated taxable value after completion $ 4,098,000
Increment value $ 4,038,000
Annual TIF generated (estimated) $ 84,075
TIF bond issue $ 1,165,090
(a) Tax shifts resulting from the approval of the use of Tax Increment Financing;
The redevelopment project area currently has an estimated valuation of $60,373. The
proposed redevelopment will create additional valuation of $4,038,000. No tax shifts are
anticipated from the project. The project creates additional valuation that will support
taxing entities long after the project is paid off.
(b) Public infrastructure and community public service needs impacts and local tax
impacts arising from the approval of the redevelopment project;
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 63 / 91
No additional public service needs have been identified. Existing water and waste
water facilities will not be impacted by this development. The electric utility has
sufficient capacity to support the development. It is not anticipated that this will impact
schools. The Grand Island Public School system was notified of this application prior to
consideration of this plan by the Grand Island CRA, Regional Planning Commission or
City Council. Fire and police protection are available and should not be negatively
impacted by this development though any additional development and population may
impact time of service.
(c) Impacts on employers and employees of firms locating or expanding within the
boundaries of the area of the redevelopment project;
This will provide additional housing options for the residents of Grand Island. The
National Homebuilders Association estimates that each new single family home is the
equivalent of 2.5 full time equivalent jobs so this development at 4 houses per year would
represent an additional 8 FTE’s within the city for the next five years.
(d) Impacts on other employers and employees within the city or village and the
immediate area that are located outside of the boundaries of the area of the
redevelopment project; and
This project will not have a negative impact on other employers except potentially to
provide housing options for employees.
(e) Impacts on student populations of school districts within the City or Village:
This development will have an impact on the Grand Island School system and
will likely result in additional students at both the elementary and secondary school
levels.
The average number of persons per household in Grand Island for 2012 to 2016
according the American Community Survey is 2.65. Twenty additional households
would house 53 people. According to the 2010 census 19.2% of the population of Grand
Island was between the ages of 5 and 18. If the averages hold it would be expected that
there would be an additional 11 school age children generated by this development. If
this develops at a rate of 4 houses per year for 5 years approximately 3 children would be
added to the school age population every year with this development. These 3 children
will likely be spread over the full school age population from elementary to secondary
school. According to the National Center for Educational Statistics1 the 2015-16
enrollment for GIPS was 9,698 students and the cost per student in 2013-14 was $12,343
of that $5,546 is generated locally. The Grand Island Public School System was notified
on April 3, 2019 that the CRA would be considering this application at their April 10,
2019 meeting.
1 https://nces.ed.gov/ccd/districtsearch/district_detail.asp?ID2=3100016
Grand Island Regular Meeting - 7/10/2019 Page 64 / 91
(f) Any other impacts determined by the authority to be relevant to the
consideration of costs and benefits arising from the redevelopment project.
This project is consistent the goals of the 2014 Housing Study for the City of Grand
Island to create more than 1700 new dwelling units by 2019. It appears that the City of
Grand Island will have added more than 1000 units by 2019 but that still leaves a deficit
of the projected need of 700 units. The local housing market is not capable of producing
the number of units needed at market rate given the costs of building and development.
Time Frame for Development
Development of this project is anticipated to be completed during between July of 2019
beginning with property clearance and utility installation and December of 2024. The
base tax year should be calculated on the value of the property as of January 1, 2020.
Excess valuation should be available for this project for 15 years beginning in 2021 with
taxes due in 2022. Excess valuation will be used to pay the TIF Indebtedness issued by
the CRA per the contract between the CRA and the developer for a period not to exceed
15 years on each house or an amount not to exceed $1,165,090 or about 92% of the
projected amount of increment based upon the anticipated value of the project and current
tax rate. The developer will spend at least $1,165,090 on eligible activities based on the
estimates presented.

This Note is issued by the Authority under the authority of and in full compliance with the
Constitution and statutes of the State of Nebraska, including particularly Article VIII, Section 12 of the
Nebraska Constitution, Sections 18-2101 to 18-2153, inclusive, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, as

THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THIS NOTE IS SET FORTH IN SCHEDULE 1
ATTACHED HERETO. THE MAXIMUM PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THIS NOTE IS $1,165,090.
This Note has been issued by the Authority for the purpose of financing the costs of constructing,

specifically described in the Resolution, and to carry out the Authority’s corporate purposes and powers in
connection therewith.
Reference is hereby made to the Resolution for the provisions, among others, with respect to the

the payment of the principal of and interest on this Note, the nature and extent of the security thereby
created, the terms and conditions under which this Note has been issued, the rights and remedies of the
Registered Owner of this Note, and the rights, duties, immunities and obligations of the City and the

This Note is a special limited obligation of the Authority payable as to principal solely from and is

of any other party other than those specifically pledged under the Resolution. This Note is not a debt of the
City or the Authority within the meaning of any constitutional, statutory or charter limitation upon the
creation of general obligation indebtedness of the City or the Authority, and does not impose any general
liability upon the City or the Authority and neither the City nor the Authority shall be liable for the payment
hereof out of any funds of the City or the Authority other than the Tax Revenues and other funds pledged
under the Resolution, which Tax Revenues and other funds have been and hereby are pledged to the
punctual payment of the principal of and interest on this Note in accordance with the provisions of this
Resolution.

part at any time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued
interest on such principal amount to the date fixed for redemption. Reference is hereby made to the
Resolution for a description of the redemption procedures and the notice requirements pertaining thereto.
In the event this Note is called for prior redemption, notice of such redemption shall be given by
first-class mail to the Registered Owner hereof at its address as shown on the registration books maintained
by the Registrar not less than 10 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, unless waived by the Registered
Owner hereof. If this Note, or any portion thereof, shall have been duly called for redemption and notice of
such redemption duly given as provided, then upon such redemption date the portion of this Note so
redeemed shall become due and payable and if money for the payment of the portion of the Note so
redeemed shall be held for the purpose of such payment by the Registrar.
This Note is transferable by the Registered Owner hereof in person or by its attorney or legal
representative duly authorized in writing at the principal office of the Registrar, but only in the manner,
subject to the limitations and upon payment of the charges provided in the Resolution, and upon surrender
and cancellation of this Note. Upon such transfer, a new Note of the same series and maturity and for the
same principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor. The Authority and the
Registrar may deem and treat the Registered Owner hereof as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of
receiving payment of or on account of principal of and interest due hereon and for all other purposes.

Provided that, with respect to any total redemption of any Note, notice of redemption shall have

At such time as any Note or portion thereof shall no longer be outstanding hereunder, and, except

Obligations, without liability to the Owners, in trust for the benefit of the Owners, who thereafter shall be
restricted exclusively to such money or Escrow Obligations for any claim for such payment of whatsoever
nature on his part.
Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding paragraph of this Section 10.2, money or Escrow

paying agent at such date, or for five years after the date of deposit of such money, if deposited with the
Registrar after the date when such Note became due and payable, shall be paid to the Nebraska State
Treasurer and the Registrar shall thereupon be released and discharged with respect thereto, and the Owner
thereof shall look only to the Authority for the payment thereof.

Community Redevelopment Authority
Chad Nabity Director
Mr. Nabity and the CRA Board of Directors:
I am in the midst of culminating the redevelopment of a facility at the corner of Third and Elm Street and I
would ask the Community Redevelopment Authority to fund infrastructure improvements at 520 West 3rd
Street.
Several years ago historic street lighting was added in a portion of Third Street and with the CRA's
assistance, I would like to add similar lighting on my property..
In front of my property an existing street light would be replaced and a second light would be sought to
the east of it. Since there are no lights on the east side of 3rd and Elm Street to the rail road tracks, I
would like to explore the installation of two lights on my property there as well.
Please explore ways the CRA could provide assistance to fund this request to create long lasting public
safety improvements, a more vibrant and attractive Downtown and compliment redevelopment efforts that
are occurring on the western edge of Downtown.
Thank you in advance of your consideration.
Respectfully,
Jay Vavricek
