After the improvements are complete, the Tax Increment District is closed and the increased tax revenue benefits all of the taxing entities (i.e. school district, vocational college, county). Attached is a figure showing how the tax revenue is collected. Tax Increment District #14 was created in 2004 to promote redevelopment of what is now called the Shops Off Broadway Mall and the Oak Avenue West corridor. Tax Increment District #14 was amended in 2011 and 2020. City Staff now recommends approval of Amendment #3 to Tax Increment District #14 which will affect the following changes: 1. Add a 0.3 acre outlot created by the subdivision of the former Denny’s parcel, which is outside of TID #14. This parcel will be purchased by Kwik Trip, which is inside of TID #14. 2. Add the one-half mile radius for projects that benefit TID #14 (such as Heller Road). This was not available in 2004 when TID #14 was created. 3. Update project costs for Oak Avenue Sidewalks and Heller Road. 4. Update the financial feasibility analysis. City Staff, with assistance from Cedar Corporation, have prepared Proposed Amendment #3 to Tax Increment District #14 and Proposed Resolution 2026-21. The Plan Commission reviewed the proposed Amendment on July 27 and recommend approval. If the City Council concurs, the appropriate motion would be Approve Proposed Resolution 2026-21, a Resolution Adopting and Approving Amendment #3 to the Project Plan for Tax Increment District #14, City of Menomonie, Wisconsin (simple majority vote).

Introduction The City of Menomonie’s Tax Increment Finance District #14 (TID, or TID #14) is generally located on the northwest side of the City, located within the City limits (see maps in Appendix A). TID #14 was originally formed in 2004 and was deemed mostly blighted and will continue to remain a Blighted Area District. Tax Increment District #14 was created on September 7, 2004 and was amended as a donor District on September 6, 2011, and was amended again to modify its boundaries on July 20, 2020. The City proposes to amend the District a third time by adding 0.3 acres of new territory to ensure the inclusion of a full parcel, adding the ½ mile boundary from the District as well as including additional project costs. The City would like to continue to eliminate blight and, by adding project costs within the TID and within its ½ mile boundary, will allow the City to further eliminate blight and encourage redevelopment within the TID. The City continues to keep in mind that a positive increment must exist before any revenue is generated. The City will stage any potential public improvements proposed to be paid for with tax increment financing so that relative certainty of economic feasibility exists. Accordingly, any City improvements will not be commenced until construction of private investments is imminent or has started. The Project Plan Amendment No. 3 for TID #14 in the City of Menomonie, Wisconsin, has been prepared in compliance with Section 66.1105, Wis. Stats. and establishes the need for the TID Amendment, and updates the financial feasibility based on the revised cash flow. The Project Plan Amendment No. 3 is to be adopted by resolution of the Joint Review Board and City Council on the recommendation from the City’s Planning Commission as the official plan and guide for public and private sector development activities within the boundaries, and within ½ mile, of TID #14. 3 2. Purpose of Proposed Amendment The purpose of this proposed amendment is to continue efforts to eliminate blighted areas, stimulate economic growth, and revitalize the North Menomonie area by providing incentives for existing and future private investment in the City of Menomonie. Incentives such as street improvements, demolition, site improvements, and other public improvements to the area will be provided through the TID. These efforts combined with privately financed plans in the District, will provide new tax base, eliminate blight and expand economic opportunity. The purpose of this amendment, referred to here after as Project Plan Amendment No. 3, is to:  Adding a 0.3 acre outlot which lies outside of the current TID boundary. This outlot is being combined with an existing parcel and must be brought into the TID in order to ensure only full parcels are within its boundary. See maps in Appendix A.  Add the ½ mile radius to the existing TID #14 as allowed under 66.1105 (2)(f)1.n. The ½ mile radius is measured outward from the official, outer boundary of the TID. (see maps in Appendix A).  Add project costs within the District and within the ½ mile boundary of the District as permitted under Wis. Stat. §66.1105(2)(f)1.n.  Update the financial feasibility analysis to the Project Plan in the District as permitted under Wis. Stat. §66.1105(4)(h)1. 4 3. Benefits and Promotion of Orderly Development The benefits and promotion of orderly development as stated in the original Project Plan adopted on September 7, 2004, or Amendment No. 1 adopted September 6, 2011, or Amendment No. 2 adopted July 20, 2020, are hereby re-affirmed and incorporated into this amendment. No other changes are proposed. By amending the Project Plan to include the ½ mile buffer, the City will have the ability to add two separate street projects. The first, Oak Avenue, lies mostly within the existing TID, however; approximately 300 lineal feet of this roadway lies outside of the current TID. The second, Heller Road, lies mostly outside of the existing TID while approximately 950 lineal feet of the project is within the current TID. Although the roadway improvements are partially located outside the formal boundaries of TID #14, the projects are eligible under Wisconsin’s TIF law because these roads provide essential access to the TID and are necessary for the successful redevelopment of the blighted area. The deteriorated condition of the roadways, including failing pavement, outdated design, and inadequate pedestrian accommodations, create barriers to redevelopment inside the District. Properties within the TID suffer from blight factors, including underutilization, obsolescence, and physical deterioration. These conditions are highlighted by substandard infrastructure at the District’s edge, which discourages investment, impairs traffic flow, and contributes to negative perceptions of the area. The additional project costs are a continuation of the implementation of the original and updated goals in TID #14 which are: 1. Removal of blighted areas in the City of Menomonie and the influence they may have on adjacent properties. 2. Supporting the City’s northern commercial area by facilitating the construction of a street extension. 3. Promote economic growth (through jobs and new tax base). 4. Minimize urban sprawl. 5. Expand economic activity by promoting orderly development in specific areas of the City. 5 4. Existing and Proposed Land Use Although there have been some minor changes in land use of the original District territory, there are no other significant changes in the existing and proposed land use plan for the District as provided in the original Project Plan. The original Project Plan existing and proposed land use dated September 7, 2004, or Amendment No. 1 adopted September 6, 2011, or Amendment No. 2 adopted July 20, 2020, are hereby re-affirmed and incorporated into this amendment. The 0.3 acre territory addition is classified by the City as an existing and future commercial use. Maps of existing and proposed land use are contained in Appendix A. 6 5. Project Plan of Tax Increment District #14 A total of $1,151,935 in additional Project Costs are proposed to be included as part of Amendment No. 3 to facilitate the improvements of Oak Avenue and Heller Road as follows: 1. $323,278 to construct sidewalks on portions of Oak Avenue as well conduct selected street reconstruction activities which includes water main, storm sewer, and road demolition and replacement costs as identified in the Opinion of Probable Cost contained in Appendix B. 2. $680,746 to reconstruct approximately 1,300 lineal feet of Heller Road from USH 12 west to the Menomonie Golf & Country Club entrance. This will include water main, storm sewer, and road demolition and replacement costs as identified in the Opinion of Probable Cost contained in Appendix B. 3. The remaining $147,911 in costs are related to the projected interest on long-term debt, financing costs, and ongoing planning and administrative costs for the District as shown in Appendix B. The proposed projects in the original Project Plan dated September 7, 2004, or Amendment No. 1 adopted September 6, 2011, or Amendment No. 2 adopted July 20, 2020, are also re-affirmed and incorporated into this amendment. 7 6. Economic Feasibility Study Appendix B includes a summary of how the remaining project costs will be financed, and a projected cash flow demonstrating the District remains economically viable with the incorporation of the amended project costs. The future value of projected tax increments should approximate the additional new costs. The City will monitor these future increments and the proposed project costs and will adjust any potential shortfalls. The forecast of the valuation increases expected and the associated tax increment collections in the original Project Plan dated September 7, 2004, or Amendment No. 1 adopted September 6, 2011, or Amendment No. 2 adopted July 20, 2020, have not changed and are hereby re-affirmed and incorporated into this amendment. The City has the resources to finance the proposed projects and, as of 2024, had approximately 58% of its total debt/borrowing capacity remaining. 8 7. Method of Financing and Projected Tax Increment Revenue There are no proposed changes to the methods of financing. The original Project Plan dated September 7, 2004, or Amendment No. 1 adopted September 6, 2011, or Amendment No. 2 adopted July 20, 2020, are hereby re-affirmed and incorporated into this amendment. 9 8. Master Plan, Building Codes and City Ordinances The proposed Project Plan Amendment is feasible and in general conformance with the City’s Comprehensive (Master) Plan, Building Codes, Ordinances, and promotes orderly development. In areas where the zoning does not align with the Future Land Use Plan or this Project Plan, the zoning code may be changed to meet the goals and objectives of the Tax Increment District Project Plan as needed. The amended Tax Increment District is generally compatible with the existing and future projected development of the property within the City. No changes to the Comprehensive Plan or existing regulations are proposed or needed at this time. Appendix A contains a Zoning Map of the Tax Increment District. The majority of the property in the District is suitable for, or currently zoned commercial, industrial, or residential, and is suitable for expanded commercial and industrial use which supports a basic element of the District plan. The 0.3 acre territory addition is currently zoned B-3 Local Shopping Center District. The rest of the zoning remains the same from the original Project Plan. There are no changes and the original Project Plan dated September 7, 2004, or Amendment No. 1 adopted September 6, 2011, or Amendment No. 2 adopted July 20, 2020, are hereby re-affirmed and incorporated into this amendment, concerning the Master Plan, Building Codes and Code of Ordinances of the City. The amended Project Plan remains in conformity with the Master Plan, Building Codes and Ordinances of the City. The proposed amendment to TID #14 is compatible with future projected development of property within the City. 10 9. Financing of Public Improvement Non-Project Costs There are no changes to the original Project Plan adopted on September 7, 2004, or Amendment No. 1 adopted September 6, 2011, or Amendment No. 2 adopted July 20, 2020, and said documents are hereby re-affirmed and incorporated into this amendment concerning the financing of public improvement non-project costs. 11 10. Relocation There are no changes to the original Project Plan dated September 7, 2004, or Amendment No. 1 adopted September 6, 2011, or Amendment No. 2 adopted July 20, 2020, and said documents are hereby re-affirmed and incorporated into this amendment. The Amended Project Plan does not propose relocation of any displaced persons by the City of Menomonie. Should any relocation requirements occur, it will be necessary to develop and file a Relocation Plan with the State of Wisconsin comply with Sec. 32.19 Wis. Stats., and keep records as required in Sec. 32.27 Wis. Stats. Any costs incurred for relocation would be considered an eligible project cost under this plan. 12 11. Equalized Value Test The 0.3 acre territory (Parcel # 1725122813143300046) is being added to TID #14 and has an assessed value of $0. Therefore the City continues to comply with Wisconsin Statute Section 66.1105(4)(gm)4.c., which requires that the equalized value of the taxable property in the proposed District, plus the increment value of all existing Tax Incremental Districts, does not exceed 12% of the total equalized value of taxable property within the City. 13 12. Estimate of Property to Be Devoted to Retail Business Pursuant to Wis. Stat. § 66.1105(5)(b), the City estimates approximately 61.8% of the territory (including the 0.3 acre outlot addition) within the District will be devoted to retail business at the end of the District’s maximum expenditure period. 14 13. Annexed Property A Tax Increment District cannot include annexed territory unless at least three years have elapsed since the annexation, or certain other requirements are met. No parcels are proposed to be added to the District with Amendment No. 3. 15 14. Amendments. The City has the ability to amend the District up to four times to revise its boundaries; however, there is no limit on the number of Project Plan amendments during a TID's life. This is the third amendment to the Project Plan. The previous amendments to TID #14 include:  Amendment No. 1 - Amended as a donor District on September 6, 2011  Amendment No. 2 - Amended boundaries on July 20, 2020 16 15. Schedule Wisconsin State Statute §66.1105 prescribes the process for amending a TID. The law requires public input in the TID amendment process, including a public hearing held by the Planning Commission at which TID information is discussed and citizens can reasonably voice their opinions on the proposed TID and TID Project Plan. A three-phased approval process is required to amend the TID including approval by the Planning Commission, City Council, and the Joint Review Board. The following is the formal meeting/action calendar for the City of Menomonie TID #14 amendment process.  Initial Joint Review Board: July 22, 2026  Plan Commission Approval: July 27, 2026  Council Approval: August 3, 2026  Joint Review Board Approval: August 13, 2026 All meetings were properly noticed and publicized per the requirements §66.1105 and all documentation can be found in Appendix C. 17 16.

Legal Description (updated as of 8/1/26) 28 Appendix B: Project Costs & Economic Feasibility 29 Project Costs & Economic Feasibility A forecast of the valuation increases expected within the District, the associated tax increment collections, and a summary of how Project Costs would be financed were prepared by Ehlers. Their analysis demonstrates that the District, with the amended projects, continues to be economically feasible. These forecasts are based on the original TID creation, but the cash flow projections have been updated to reflect the additional project expenditures. The blight elimination that occurred within the District would not have happened without the creation of the District in 2004. The additions of projects for the reconstruction of Oak Avenue and Heller Road will further help to eliminate blight as these are primary roads which serve the District. The City is in a strong economic condition to have the capacity to finance capital costs for this project. The impact of the improved roads could further eliminate blight and spur additional commercial in the District. The City has identified a need for commercial growth in this area, and without the TID’s direct assistance, the road projects would not likely occur. The proposed projects included as part of this amendment are shown in Table B-1, as well as Tables B-1a, and total $1,151,935. The project costs the City has already expended, plus those planned for in the future, are expected to create an estimated additional $1 million in equalized property value during the remaining years of life of the TID #14. Estimated development assumptions and timing for construction are included in Table B-2. Assuming a projected equalized TID Interim tax rate of $15.43 per thousand of equalized value, TID #14 could generate as much as $961,370 in additional tax Increment revenue over the remainder of its life as shown in Table B-3. The estimated portion of taxes paid by each jurisdiction is shown in Table B-4. The City plans to finance the proposed projects through the issuance of a General Obligation bond in the amount of $615,000 (Table B-5) with the remaining costs covered by current/future fund balances. Eligible project expenditures can be made only during the first 22 years of the TID’s life, which for TID #14 ends on December 31, 2026 based on its 2004 creation date. The projected cash flow for TID #14 (Table B-6) shows that the proposed projects can be constructed within the financial constraints of the TID. At the end of the TID’s life in 2032, it is expected that excess tax increment of approximately $260,000 will remain. This may change based on actual project bid costs. 30 Development incentive payments, if used, will be paid from tax increments as they are collected on a “Pay-As-You-Go” basis, when feasible. Administrative expenses will be paid from the collected tax increments, or from advances from other City fund accounts if those costs exceed cash amounts available. The City will recover any amounts advanced to the District as cash flows permit and may charge interest to the District. The City anticipates that the District will need to remain open for its entire 27-year life to generate enough tax increment to pay all project costs, however this is dependent on the nature and timing of development projects. Note that the assumptions used to create the following tables illustrate that the Project Plan is feasible and that the anticipated revenues are sufficient to cover anticipated expenditures. Any annual shortfalls in the TID Fund Balance are anticipated to be recovered within the TID’s maximum life. 31 Table B-1: Project List 32 Table B-1a: Opinions of Probable Cost 33 34 35 36 Table B-2: Development Assumptions 37 Table B-3: Tax Increment Projections 38 Table B-4: Tax Increment Distribution 39 Table B-5: Estimated Financing Plan 40 Table B-6: Cash Flow Projections 41 Page intentionally left blank 42 Appendix C: Public Hearing Notices & Approval Documentation To be added after final approval, and prior to submittal to Department of Revenue Documents: 1.

Title 9, Chapter 13, Vacant Building Registration Program is hereby created to read as follows: CHAPTER 13 VACANT BUILDING REGISTRATION PROGRAM SECTION: 9-13-1: Definitions 9-13-2: Intent and Purpose 9-13-3: Interference with Enforcement 9-13-4: Administration 9-13-5: Registration Requirement 9-13-6: Registration Procedures 9-13-7: Inspection Fee 9-13-8: Building Maintenance and Security Standards 9-13-9: Penalty 9-13-10: Severability 9-13-1: DEFINITIONS: The following words, terms and phrases, when used in this chapter, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in this section, except where the context clearly indicates a different meaning: BUILDING means a structure for the support, shelter, or enclosure of persons or property. Each portion of a structure that is separated by a firewall, or that is required by applicable code to be separated by a firewall, shall be deemed a separate building for purp oses of this chapter . In addition, each separate occupancy within a building may be regulated independently for purposes of this chapter. DWELLING means any building which is wholly or partly used or intended to be used for living or sleeping purposes by human occupants. EVIDENCE OF VACANT BUILDING means any condition that on its own or combined with other conditions would lead a reasonable person to believe the building is vacant. Such conditions include, but are not limited to, overgrown and/or dead vegetation, accumulation of newspapers, circulars, flyers and/or mail, past due utility notices, disconnected utilities, accumulation of trash, junk and/or debris, broken or boarded windows, abandoned vehicles, auto parts or materials, the absence of window coverings such as curtains, blinds and /or shutters, the absence of furnishings and/or personal items consistent with habitation, or occupation, statements by neighbors, passerby, delivery agents or governmental employees that the property is vacant. A commercial building may further be defined as vacant if it is not: (i) being used for commercial purposes; (ii) having regular business hours; (iii) operating under a state business license; or (iv) having a current and valid Certificate of Occupancy. FORECLOSURE means the legal process by which a mortgage is enforced against a parcel of real property through the sale or offering for sale of the property to satisfy the indebtedness owed to the mortgagee. MORTGAGE means a recorded lien or interest in real property to secure payment of a loan. MORTGAGEE means a person, firm, corporation , or other legal entity holding a mortgage on a property. OWNER means any individual, limited liability company member, co -partnership, association, corporation, company, fiduciary, or any other person or legal entity having a legal or equitable title or interest in real property. The term includes a mortgagee which h as obtained a judgment of foreclosure against a property. STRUCTURE means a combination of material to form a construction that is safe and stable; including among others, buildings, stadiums, reviewing stands, platforms, staging observation towers, radio towers, water tanks and towers, trestles, piers, wharves, sheds, co al bins, shelters, fences and display signs; the term structure shall be construed as if followed by the words or part thereof. VBRP means the City of Menomonie Vacant Building Registration Program as outlined in this Chapter. 9-13-2: INTENT AND PURPOSE: A. The purpose and intent of this Chapter is to prevent the blighting influence and nuisances caused by residential and commercial structures that are condemned or vacant and to ensure the integrity of the community's health, safety, welfare, and value. B. Properties that are condemned or vacant act as blighting influence for the surrounding neighborhood, depress market values of surrounding properties to the detriment of the various taxing districts , and require additional governmental services. Property in such condition endangers the public safety and health, constitutes an unreasonable use and condition to the annoyance, discomfort, and repose of a considerable number of the public, and is detrimental to the public good and to the common welfare. C. Unsecured properties are a harborage for rodents; an invitation for use as a temporary abode; have a very high probability of intentionally set fires, and an increased risk of explosion due to the theft of internal piping. Unkempt grounds surrounding such properties invite dumping of garbage and rubbish thereon. Therefore, adequate protection of public health, safety, and welfare requires establishing and enforcing rules governing how such nuisance conditions may be abated. D. It is important for the community to know which buildings are vacant and to establish a proactive approach to track properties that are at risk of becoming vacant while the owner is still known. This type of action reduces the cost to the community and places the responsibility for rehabilitation on the property owner or proper security on the owner early in the cycle of deterioration. 9-13-3: INTERFERENCE WITH ENFORCEMENT: No person shall prevent, resist , or interfere with the Chief Building Inspector, or their designee, from entering any premises or carrying out their duties under this Chapter. 9-13-4: ADMINISTRATION: A. The Chief Building Inspector, or their designee, will be charged with the administration of the VBRP Potential and any demolition will follow the process specified in Wis. Stat. § 66.0413 and City Code Title 9, Chapter 1. 1. Identifying qualified properties will require a cooperative effort from public workers in the field. Indicators that present risk factors of a vacant building include, but are not limited to: a. A history of back taxes and special charges. b. Previous structural fires. c. Unabated zoning and housing code violations. d. Unreleased liens and attachments. 2. Any funds generated from the VBRP will be utilized for the administrative cost of identifying, evaluating, inspecting, securing, demolishing , or rehabilitating properties that are condemned or vacant. 9-13-5: REGISTRATION REQUIREMENT: A. A residential dwelling, commercial building, or any other structure that is condemned as unfit for human habitation or is vacant shall register for the VBRP. 1.
