The City of Monticello, Iowa
IN THE NAME AND BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF MONTICELLO, IOWA
RESOLUTION #17-149
Resolution Appropriating funds necessary to meet the City’s
Obligation to Kardes Inc. per Development Agreement
dated March 17, 2014
WHEREAS, The Council approved a Development Agreement with Kardes Inc by Resolution #14-31 dated March 17, 2014, and
WHEREAS, The agreement provided for six Grant payments of $20,000 each, in addition to property tax rebates on the improvements over a period of ten (10) years, at percentages set forth in the agreement, and
WHEREAS, The City, by way of Resolution #16-117, appropriated $50,142 to meet the City’s obligations for fourth grant payment and second year tax rebate payments in FY ’18 based upon estimated valuations, and
WHEREAS, After final assessments and payment of taxes, the second year rebate, not including the predetermined $20,000 grant, was calculated to be $37,246, resulting in the City’s overall appropriation of $50,142, being the sum of the estimated rebate of $30,142 and grant of $20,000, being short in the amount of $7,104, this Resolution correcting the estimate to match the actual rebate, increasing the appropriation from $50,142 to $57,246, which includes the 4th grant payment, and
WHEREAS, The Council finds that funds should be appropriated for FY ’19 in the amount necessary to rebate sums consistent with the Development Agreement, including the fifth grant payment of $20,000 and rebates calculated at the rate of 85% of those taxes determined eligible to be rebated according to the terms of the Development Agreement, in the estimated total amount of $35,176, said estimate being based upon the FY ’17 valuation and consolidated tax rates, with the exact rebate to be determined after the receipt of final assessment numbers and tax payments made by the developer.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Monticello does hereby formally appropriate funds necessary to meet the City’s obligation to pay the fifth grant and the third year of rebate payments for FY ’19 to Kardes Inc. in the estimated amount of $55,176 and hereby acknowledges the correction of the FY ’18 total rebate by increasing the previously estimated sum of $50,142 to the actual payment of $57,246.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I have hereunto subscribed my name and caused the Great Seal of the City of Monticello, Iowa to be affixed hereto. Done this 20th day of November, 2017.
