Huddleston, PE, Executive Director Development Services Summary Resolution 21-R-30 restating and amending Economic Impact Plan/Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Incentive for One East College Development Project and amendment of the Mixed-Use Development Agreement between the City and One East College, LLC. Staff Recommendation Adopt Resolution 21-R-30 approving the amended Economic Development Plan and TIF Incentive and approve amendments to Mixed-Use Development Agreement Background Information On December 6, 2018, the City entered into a purchase and sale agreement with One East College for the city block bound by Lytle, Spring, College, and Church streets. Concurrently, the City also entered into a mixed-use development agreement with the One East College that established obligations for construction of a mixed-use development. On June 28, 2019, title to the property was transferred to One East College. In September 2019, as contemplated in the development agreement, Council adopted Resolution 19-R-19 approving an Economic Development Plan/Tax-Increment Financing (TIF) Incentive (the “Plan”), pursuant to which City property taxes, along with County property taxes, will reimburse One East College for the cost of constructing certain public infrastructure improvements, including a new public parking garage, that will be incorporated into the Project. The Plan was also approved by the Rutherford County Industrial Development Board (IDB) and Rutherford County Commission in accordance with state law. In October 2019, Council, the IDB, and County Commission approved an updated version of the Plan. During 2020, governmental imposed restrictions addressing the pandemic significantly disrupted segments of the economy, particularly the hotel industry. One East College was forced revise their development plans. The planned hotel was converted to one- bedroom units that may in the future be converted to hotel rooms. Parking was correspondingly increased and the commercial, office, and food services space were modified. Plan modifications result in the substantial increase in the value of One East College’s Development, which necessitates certain changes to the Development Agreement and the Economic Impact Plan. One East College’s reimbursement is capped at $9m. The Development Agreement remains performance based with City’s TIF valued at approximately $274,000 for 15 years. The IDB has approved the amended Plan and referred it to the City for consideration and approval. If approved, the County Commission will vote on the amended Plan. Council Priorities Served  Improve economic development The $60m to $70m redevelopment of the former City-owned block provides a major economic boost to the downtown area that will increase the residential presence in the area and attract additional private investment. Fiscal Impact The Economic Impact Plan estimates that approximately $644,000 will be generated annually in additional City property and sales tax revenue from the redevelopment proposed by One East College, LLC. After retaining the City dedicated taxes, approximately $274,000 will be allocated to the TIF for 15-year term. Attachments: 1. Resolution 21-R-30 2. Amended Mixed-Use Development Agreement 3.

Background Information I-24 is an integral part of the Nashville-Davidson County transportation network. Since 2005, traffic volumes have increased by more than 60% in the Murfreesboro segments of l-24. TDOT’s I-24 SMART Corridor Project takes a comprehensive approach to managing the existing infrastructure and improving travel time reliability between Rutherford and Davidson Counties. This project integrates freeway and arterial roadway elements, along with physical, technological, and operational improvements, to provide drivers accurate, real-time information and to actively manage traffic. The project is phased as follows: Phase 1: Short-Term Deployments  Ramp improvements and emergency pull-offs along I-24  Roadside dynamic message signs (DMS) along I-24  Dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) deployment  Upgraded signal system including updated signal timings along the arterials Phase 2: Intermediate Deployments  Upgraded fiber along I-24  Overhead DMS for Active Traffic Management System along I-24  Upgraded detection along I-24 and the arterials Phase 3: Long-Term Deployments  Ramp Metering along I-24  Upgraded fiber along arterials  CCTVs and DMS along arterials  ADA improvements along arterials  Automated Decision Support Systems for Active Traffic Management Council Priorities Served Improve economic development The enhancement of major transportation corridors through the City assists in locating beneficial economic development projects within the City. Expand infrastructure The improvement of traffic flow on I-24 assists with removing traffic from City streets and serves to expend the capacity of existing roadways.  COUNCIL COMMUNICATION Meeting Date: 07/29/2021 Item Title: Murfreesboro City Schools Update Department: City Schools Presented by: Dr. Trey Duke Requested Council Action: Ordinance ☐ Resolution ☐ Motion ☐ Direction ☐ Information ☒ Summary Overview of the start of the 2021-2022 school year including information on district enrollment and priorities for the year. Staff Recommendation Information Only Background Information During the 2020-2021 school year Murfreesboro City Schools went through several changes related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background Information Under state law, municipalities may elect to allow retail liquor stores to operate within its jurisdiction. If these stores are permitted, municipalities’ regulation of the stores is limited to how many stores are permitted within the jurisdiction and the location of the stores. The City limits liquor stores to commercial, industrial, mixed-use, and planned development zones under the City’s Zoning Ordinance. The City also requires a distance separation between liquor stores and both schools and places of worship. In early 2018, City Council also adopted an ordinance that capped the number of liquor stores that are allowed to operate within the City to 1:5000 residents. Council recent discussed revising the City’s current regulation of retail liquor stores and the process for approving certificates of compliance from the City, which is a prerequisite for an operator to obtain a liquor license from the Alcoholic Beverages Commission. The attached memorandum outlines possible modifications of the City’s regulations. Council may consider a moratorium on acceptance of new applications for certificates of compliance for 60 days pending adoption of an ordinance enacting any regulatory changes. Attachments: 1. Memorandum to Council regarding Modification of the City’s Regulation of Retail Liquor Stores 2. Resolution 21-R-31, enacting a temporary moratorium on acceptance of applications for certificates of compliance  . . . creating a better quality of life LEGAL DEPARTMENT - MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and Members of City Council FROM: Adam Tucker, City Attorney Roman Hankins, Assistant City Attorney DATE: August 9, 2021 SUBJECT: Possible Changes to the City’s Retail Liquor Store Regulations In this memorandum, we outline for City Council’s consideration several possible changes to the City’s regulation of retail liquor stores. These possible changes fit into three discrete categories: 1) the restricting of the total number of stores permitted to operate within the City; 2) restrictions pertaining to the location of retail liquors stores; and 3) the application and approval process for certificates of compliance. Except as otherwise noted, we are not making any recommendation as to whether any particular change should be implemented. A. Restriction on Number of Stores 1. Section 4-10 - Retail liquor certificate of compliance; limited number—currently allows up to one liquor store per 5,000 City residents. Section 4-10 currently reads as follows: (A) Notwithstanding the requirements of Section 4-7(B), City Council shall not issue any Retail Liquor Certificate of Compliance relative to any new retail liquor stores unless it is determined, in accordance with Section 4-10(C), that the availability of alcoholic beverages to City residents is unreasonably restricted. (B) Notwithstanding the limitation established in Section 4-10(A), the City shall issue one or more new certificates for purposes of facilitating the sale of any interest in any existing retail liquor store or the relocation of a retail liquor store's place of business within the City if the person or persons applying for any such certificate(s) satisfy the requirements of Section 4-7 and T.C.A. § 57-3-208. (C) For the purpose of determining whether the availability of alcoholic beverages to residents of the City is unreasonably restricted, it will be presumed, absent proof to the contrary, that alcoholic beverages are generally available and that residents are being Possible Changes to City’s Retail Liquor Store Regulations August 9, 2021 adequately served when the ratio between the number of operating retail liquor stores in the City relative to the population of the City is less than or equal to one store for each 5,000 City residents. The population of the City for purposes of determining the number of retail liquor stores will be the number provided by the most current population estimate made available by the U.S. Census Bureau, Population Estimates Program. The quotient of the population divided by the allowable per capita number set herein must be a whole number before a certificate may be issued in accordance with this section. (D)Annually at the first meeting of City Council following the first day of July, the City Recorder shall report to City Council the total number of licensed retail liquor stores operating within the City as of that date and the total number of additional retail liquor stores, if any, that could be approved to operate within the City under this section. 2. Under Section 4-10(C) as it exists today, and based on 2020 population estimate of 146,9000, no more than 29 retail liquor stores are permitted to operate within the City. 3. Increasing the denominator of the ratio to 6,000, 7,000, or 10,000 would reduce the number of stores allowed to operate within the City to 24, 20, and 14, respectively, although existing stores would be grandfathered in and allowed to continue to operate if the number of stores “allowed” by ordinance dropped below the number currently operating. 4. Note: Memphis and Chattanooga have hard caps on the number of liquor stores permitted, 177 and 54, respectively. Other researched cities have either have no cap or, like Murfreesboro, set the cap by population ratio. B. Restriction on Locations 1. Murfreesboro City Code Section 4-11 currently mandates the minimum distances between a retail liquor store and a school or a place of worship be at least 500 ft. and 300 ft., respectively in the following zones: Commercial Fringe; Commercial Highway; Central Business District; Heavy Industrial; Light Industrial; Mixed Use; Planned Unit Developments; Planned Commercial Developments; and Planed Residential Developments. 2. Retail Liquor Stores are currently not permitted on any property in any type of residential zone. 3. Section 4-11 requires two liquor stores to be at least 1,500 ft. apart. 4. If Council wishes to enact a distance requirement between liquor stores and private residences, Table 4-11 could be amended accordingly with an appropriate requirement, although staff recommends that no distance requirement be applied in CBD, MU, and PUD zones. 5. Other distance requirements could require an amendment to the City’s Zoning Ordinance. C. Application for and Approval of Certificates of Compliance 1. Section 4-7(D) currently provides as follows: 2 Possible Changes to City’s Retail Liquor Store Regulations August 9, 2021 (D) Upon receiving an application for a Retail Liquor Certificate of Compliance, the City Recorder shall review the application. Upon determining that the application meets the requirements of Section 4-7(C), the City Recorder shall present the application, along with the applicant's proposed Certificate of Compliance, to Council for consideration at the earliest possible meeting. 2. One possible alternative to the current application process would be to replace 4-7(D) in its entirety and replace it with the following: (D) Applications for a Retail Liquor Certificate of Compliance shall be received and processed by the City Recorder as follows: (1) Upon receiving an application for a Retail Liquor Certificate of Compliance, the City Recorder shall review the application. (2) Only complete applications shall be submitted. If the City Recorder determines that an application is incomplete, the City Recorder shall inform the applicant of any deficiency and return the application to the applicant. (3) Complete applications will be considered in the chronological order in which they are received, and no consideration will be given to the fact that other applications have subsequently been received. (4) Upon determining that the application meets the requirements of Section 4-7(C), the City Recorder shall present the application, along with the applicant's proposed Certificate of Compliance, to Council for consideration at the earliest possible meeting. 3. Another alternative to the current application process would be to delete 4-7(D)-(G) in their entirety (subsections (E), (F), and (G) pertain to the certificate approval process) and create a new Section 4-9, which would provide as follows: s entirety and replace it with the following: Section 4-9 – Procedures for processing applications for Retail Liquor Certificates of Compliance At any time the number of approved licensed retail liquor stores is less than the total limit for the number of retail liquor stores as provided in Section 4-10, the following procedures are established and shall govern the processing of applications for additional retail liquor stores up to the total limit on the number of retail liquor stores specified in Section 4-10 at that time. (A) The City Recorder shall publish online using the City website, and in a local newspaper of general circulation, for a period of three (3) consecutive calendar days, a notice that the City has an open certificate or certificates of compliance, equal to the total amount of retail liquor stores permitted by Section 4-10 less any previously approved certificates of compliance, for the operation of one or more retail liquor stores within the City, and inviting prospective store operators to apply for a 3 Possible Changes to City’s Retail Liquor Store Regulations August 9, 2021 certificate. The notice shall provide that prospective applicants may obtain a written application for a certificate of compliance from the City Recorder. The application form shall also be posted on the City website for download by the public. The notice shall further provide that the City shall accept applications for a period of twenty (20) calendar days after the last date of publication of the notice, and no applications shall be accepted after that date for that application period. (B) During the twenty (20) calendar days period specified above, the City shall accept all written applications for processing that are properly and fully completed in accordance with Section 4-7 and timely submitted during business hours at the City Recorder's office. It shall be the sole responsibility of the applicant to complete the application properly and fully and to timely submit the application. (C) A copy of the application may be referred by the City Recorder to the Murfreesboro Planning Department, which shall then conduct a staff-level review to determine if the applicant's proposed business location is properly zoned for use as a retail liquor store, including applicable location restrictions. The results of the Murfreesboro Planning Department zoning check shall be filed with the application and returned to the City Recorder for further processing. (D) During review of the criminal background check submitted by the applicant in accordance with Section 4-7, the City Recorder shall confer with the City Attorney to determine if any applicant has been convicted of a felony from any jurisdiction within a ten-year period immediately preceding the date of the application, and any other disqualifying factors as may be prescribed by state law. Any applications wherein the applicant has been found to have been convicted of same shall have their application denied administratively by the City Recorder, and such applicant shall receive written notice of this finding and that their application has been denied by the City for that reason, or for any other reason prescribed by state law. (E) All applicants that timely submitted a properly and fully completed application, including (without limitation) the reviews noted herein, shall then be eligible for further processing. (F) If the number of applicants eligible for further processing after review is less than the number of open certificates of compliance (retail liquor stores permitted pursuant to Section 4-10) that are available, then each applicant's application for a certificate of compliance shall be placed on the agenda by the City Recorder for the next meeting of the City Council in the form of a separate resolution approving a certificate of compliance for each separate applicant location. At said next meeting the City Council shall consider each separate application which shall require a majority vote for approval. (G) If the number of applicants eligible for further processing exceeds the number of open certificates of compliance (retail liquor stores permitted pursuant to Section 4-10) that are available, then each applicant's application for a certificate of compliance shall be considered based on a public lottery drawing. The City Recorder shall place on the 4 Possible Changes to City’s Retail Liquor Store Regulations August 9, 2021 agenda for the next meeting of the City Council an agenda item for a public lottery drawing pertaining to retail liquor store certificates of compliance; such agenda item shall list the names of all applicants that are eligible for the public lottery drawing. Prior to said next meeting, the City Recorder shall prepare separate strips of paper of equal dimensions upon which the names of each applicant seeking a certificate of compliance is typed. Each strip of paper shall then be folded twice in the same manner for each strip of paper, and then placed into an opaque container from which the drawing shall be made. At the appropriate time at the next City Council meeting, the City Mayor, or the Mayor's designee, shall draw from the opaque container without viewing the inside of the container a number of the strips of paper containing the typewritten names of the applicants that are equal to the number of open certificates of compliance (retail liquor stores permitted pursuant to Section 4-10) that are available. Those applicants selected by public lottery shall then be the applicants accepted for consideration of the applicant's application for a certificate of compliance by the City Council. (H) The City Council may require an applicant for a Retail Liquor Certificate of Compliance to appear before the Council to address any matter related to the applicant's application and/or business. The City Council may also request and the applicant shall furnish additional information regarding the applicant's application and/or business, in which case the Council may also defer the application to the next meeting, so long as any such deferral does not extend the application beyond sixty (60) days from the date of submission of the application. (I) In those circumstances where the provisions of subsection (G) above applies, upon the conclusion of the public lottery drawing, each applicant selected during the public lottery drawing shall have their application for a certificate of compliance immediately considered at the same session as the public lottery drawing, by the City Council by separate vote for each selected applicant location, which shall require a majority vote for approval, subject to the procedure of subsection (H), above. (J) Any applicant who has been approved for a certificate of compliance by the City Council who does not then make application for a retail liquor store license from the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days of the date of approval of the resolution for a certificate of compliance by the City Council, may have their certificate of compliance repealed by a separate resolution of the City Council. (K) Any certificate of compliance approved by resolution of the City Council for any applicant, who, prior to obtaining their retail liquor store license from the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission, is subsequently convicted of any felony from any jurisdiction, may have their certificate of compliance repealed by a separate resolution of the City Council. (L) As provided by state law, any applicant's application for a certificate of compliance that is selected through the public lottery method prescribed herein that is not voted 5 Possible Changes to City’s Retail Liquor Store Regulations August 9, 2021 on by the City Council within sixty (60) days from the date such applicant's application is submitted to the City Recorder shall be deemed granted. 6  RESOLUTION 21-R-XX enacting a temporary moratorium on the acceptance of applications for liquor store certificates of compliance pending amendments to Chapter 4 of the Murfreesboro City Code.

Instead, collections have exceeded, rather than lagged, FY20. City Council approved a budget amendment in early November to reflect this shift. The chart above reflects this revised budget. Cumulative collections reflect a 17.7% increase over FY20 collections. This information reflects a 2-month lag – the collections are for April 2021 taxes. Barring any significant economic downturns, this trend is expected to continue, though collections may level off at some point in the future.

The November budget amendment to this revenue source is reflected in this chart. Cumulatively, State Sales Tax is up 13.3% over FY20. This information reflects a 2-month lag – the collections are for April 2021 taxes. Again, barring any significant economic downturns, this trend is expected to continue though collections may level off at some point in the future.  % of Total Current Month Collections State Street Aid - Gas Tax , 12.32% Business Tax - Gross TVA Gross Receipts, Receipts Tax, 34.29% 10.82% Mixed Drink Tax, 4.06% Telecom Sales Tax, 0.28% Gas Tax Allocation, 0.63% State Sales Tax, 37.60% Sales Tax made up 37% of the State Shared collections for June. Business License taxes totaled 34% of State Shared collections while the State Street Aid Gas Tax (restricted to road improvements) made up an additional 12%. Quarterly TVA Gross Receipts totaled 11% for June. All other taxes made up an additional 4.97% of the State Revenue Distributions for the month.  State Revenue Collections 4.00 30 Millions Millions 3.50 25 3.00 20 2.50 Total Collections 2.00 15 1.50 10 1.00 5 0.50 0.00 0 JUL AUG SEPT OCT NOV DEC JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUNE FY20 Actual FY21 Actual FY20 Cumulative FY21 Cumulative Overall, State Shared Revenue collections showed a 18.8% increase from last year’s State Shared revenues thru June and a 47% increase for the month of June as compared to 2020. This is primarily due to the increase in Business License Gross Receipt Taxes. Sales Taxes receipts are showing a 50% increase, and Business License taxes are showing a 54% increase as compared to June of last year. FY20 receipts were skewed due to tax extensions approved by the State in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This will likely level out in July 2021. Mixed Drink taxes increased 712% for the month of June as compared to June in FY20, making up for previous FY21 decreases and bringing this revenue back in- line with pre-pandemic levels. State Street Aid showed its first significant increase of the year with a 61% increase for the month as compared to last year. Overall, this tax is reflecting relatively flat results compared to FY20. These revenues are restricted and can only be spent on eligible roadway maintenance and construction projects.  HOTEL/MOTEL BUDGET vs. ACTUAL 350 3 Millions Thousands 300 3 250 2 200 2 150 1 100 1 50 - - JUL AUG SEPT OCT NOV DEC JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN FY21 Budget Based on 5 yr Average Actual FY20 Cumulative FY21 Cumulative The Hotel/Motel Tax rate doubled in FY20 from 2.5% to 5%.
