Meeting Date: November 3, 2021 Subject: Resolution 21-08, a Resolution of the Urban Renewal Authority of Dacono Adopting the Annual Budget and Appropriating Expenditures for the Urban Renewal Authority of Dacono for Fiscal Year 2022. Presenter: Carrie Bartow, Chief Financial Officer Jennifer Krieger, Executive Director Background: The proposed amended 2022 budget reflects expected revenues and expenditures for Dacono Plan Area I and Dacono Plan Area II for the Urban Renewal Authority of Dacono. Incremental property tax revenue is the primary funding sources for the URAD. Proposed 2022 projects, funded from the Dacono I Urban Renewal Plan Area I include: • Preliminary roadway engineering and shared construction cost for a portion of Weld County Road 12 (Grand View Blvd). Due to the timing of the property owner’s entitlement process, this project was not completed in 2021. • I-25 corridor land use and economic development study. This project aims to conduct a market study and identify economic development opportunities along the I-25 corridor to leverage private investment in the Dacono Plan Area I. This project began in 2021 and will continue in 2022. • URAD-owned property market study. Incremental revenue generated from the Dacono Plan Area II is pledged revenue for debt service payment of the Authority Tax Increment Revenue Bonds, Series 2020. Recommended Action: Staff recommends approval of Resolution 21-08, adopting the fiscal year 2022 budget.

See summary of significant assumptions. 7 PRELIMINARY DRAFT - SUBJECT TO REVISION URBAN RENEWAL AUTHORITY OF DACONO 2022 BUDGET SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS Services Provided The Economic Development Authority of Dacono was formed by resolution passed March 23, 2015, by the City Council of the City of Dacono, Colorado (the City) pursuant to the Colorado Urban Renewal Law, Colorado Revised Statutes. On June 8, 2020, a resolution was passed to change the name of the organization to the Urban Renewal Authority of Dacono (Authority). The purpose of the Authority is to acquire and develop certain blighted areas in the City to maintain the public welfare. The Authority is considered a component unit of the City since the Authority’s tax increment financing indicates financial accountability with the City, due to the benefits redevelopment will provide the City. The Mayor appoints the Authority board members and the City Council reviews the Urban Renewal Plans and any changes thereto. Legal counsel is of the opinion that under state statues, the City is not liable with respect to the bonds issued by the Authority. The Authority has no employees and all administrative functions are contracted. The Authority prepares its budget on the modified accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the requirements of Colorado Revised Statutes C.R.S. 29-1-105 using its best estimates as of the date of the budget hearing. These estimates are based on expected conditions and its expected course of actions. The assumptions disclosed herein are those that the District believes are significant to the budget. There will usually be differences between the budget and actual results, because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected, and those differences may be material. Revenues Incremental Property Taxes The Authority receives incremental property tax revenue for each of the active Urban Renewal areas. Incremental property tax revenues are the property tax revenues in excess of an amount equal to the ad valorem property taxes produced by the levy at the rates fixed for such year by or for the governing bodies of the various taxing jurisdictions within or overlapping the Urban Renewal area upon a valuation for assessment equal to the property tax base amount. The property tax base amount is certified by the County Assessor as the valuation for assessment of all taxable property within the Urban Renewal area last certified by the County Assessor prior to the adoption of the Urban Renewal plan. The base amount may be proportionately adjusted for general reassessments in accordance with Colorado law. The calculation of the incremental property taxes budgeted is displayed on the Property Summary Information pages the budget at the estimated mill levies for each project area. Interest Income Interest earned on the Authority’s available funds has been estimated based on the current average interest rate. PRELIMINARY DRAFT - SUBJECT TO REVISION 8 URBAN RENEWAL AUTHORITY OF DACONO 2022 BUDGET SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS Expenditures Administrative Expenditures Administrative expenditures include the services necessary to maintain the administrative viability such as legal, accounting, audit, contractual, and professional services, and other administrative expenses for the Authority. County Treasurer’s Fees County Treasurer’s collection fees have been computed at 1.5% of the incremental property taxes. Property Tax Increment Payment City Cooperation Agreement.

Under the City Cooperation Agreement, the Authority agreed to use the City Increment to pay eligible costs of the redevelopment of the TIF Area.
