To consider Resolution 26-06-02 a resolution approving an economic development district and economic development plan City Administrator Linwood - Explained that the district encompasses the entire City of Wyoming and is intended to provide the EDA with the legal authority to undertake future economic development activities and financing under Minnesota law. The district does not authorize any specific project or expenditure. Instead, it creates the framework needed for future projects, including public facilities, redevelopment efforts, housing initiatives, and other economic development opportunities.Noted that while the district supports the planned City Hall, Police Department, and Fire Department projects, it is also intended to be a long term economic development tool rather than one created solely for the current facilities project.

The resident also asked about the broader purpose of establishing the district, whether future economic development projects were anticipated beyond the current facilities project, whether the EDA would need to own the properties involved in the financing, the approval process for future bond issuance, the anticipated amount of the initial bond issuance, and the reimbursement of funds previously used by the City to acquire the future City Hall property. City Administrator Linwood - Explained that the proposed Economic Development District is intended to serve as a long term economic development tool supporting future redevelopment and economic growth throughout the community, in addition to the current public facilities project. Establishing the district now provides the City with greater flexibility to pursue future redevelopment opportunities and financing Page 6 of 26 mechanisms as projects arise. Potential future uses discussed included redevelopment of the Wyoming Motel property, future commercial development on the west side of Interstate 35, and potential workforce housing initiatives. Staff also noted that any future financing actions would require approval by both the EDA and the City Council. The initial financing is estimated at approximately $9 million, including reimbursement to the City for the acquisition of the future City Hall property that was purchased for $1.9 million. A MOTION WAS MADE BY EDA MEMBER BULMER SECONDED BY EDA MEMBER SCHILLING TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR AN ECONOMIC DISTRICT AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN AT 5:55PM Voting Aye: Iverson, Allen, Bulmer, and Schilling Voting Nay: Abstain: Board Discussion – Member Schilling noted they had implemented a similar district in another city simply to have the authority available for future use.

Voting Aye: Iverson, Allen, Bulmer, and Schilling Voting Nay: Abstain: Page 7 of 26 Request for EDA Action Date: July 7, 2026 Presented to: EDA Members Presented by: Robb Linwood, City Administrator Department: Administration Reference: Resolution Authorizing the Competitive Sale of Lease Revenue Bonds for the Municipal Facilities Project Method: New Business Background Information: The City of Wyoming is proceeding with the remodeling of the new City Hall and the renovation and addition to the existing Fire Department and City Hall building, creating a dedicated Fire Department facility. These projects will modernize aging public facilities, improve operational efficiencies, enhance emergency response capabilities, and position the city to meet current and future community needs. As part of the municipal facilities project, the Economic Development Authority previously adopted an Economic Development Plan and established an Economic Development District encompassing the entire city. These actions provide the statutory authority for the EDA to undertake economic development activities, including financing eligible public facilities through lease revenue bonds, while also establishing a long term framework to support future economic development initiatives throughout the community. Following evaluation of available financing alternatives, the City Council selected the lease revenue bond financing structure and directed staff to proceed with financing through the Economic Development Authority. Under this structure, the EDA issues lease revenue bonds that are secured by lease payments from the City rather than the City's general obligation taxing authority. The attached resolution authorizes the competitive negotiated sale of approximately $9,270,000 in Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2026A. Adoption of the resolution authorizes Baker Tilly Municipal Advisors to solicit competitive bids on behalf of the EDA, establishes the terms of the sale, authorizes preparation of the Official Statement, and continues the financing process for the municipal facilities project. Bond proceeds will be used to finance the remodeling of the new City Hall, the renovation and addition to the existing Fire Department and City Hall building, and costs associated with issuing the bonds. The proposed financing remains subject to market conditions and the receipt of competitive bids. Following the competitive sale, the EDA will consider awarding the sale of the bonds. The City Council will then consider the related lease agreement and other financing documents necessary to complete the transaction. Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of Resolution 27-07-03 a resolution authorizing the competitive negotiated sale of the Economic Development Authority Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2026A, Page 8 of 26 CITY OF WYOMING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY COUNTY OF CHISAGO STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. 27-07-03 RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR THE COMPETITIVE NEGOTIATED SALE OF $9,270,000 LEASE REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2026A (CITY OF WYOMING, MINNESOTA LEASE OBLIGATION) A.

Gross spread for this purpose is the differential between the price paid to the Authority for the new issue and the prices at which the proposal indicates the securities will be initially offered to the investing public. BOOK ENTRY SYSTEM The Bonds will be issued by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of Bonds made to the public. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form and one Bond, representing the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing in each year, will be registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, New York, which will act as securities depository for the Bonds. Individual purchases of the Bonds may be made in the principal amount of $5,000 or any multiple thereof of a single maturity through book entries made on the books and records of DTC and its participants. Principal and interest are payable by the registrar to DTC or its nominee as registered owner of the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest payments to participants of DTC will be the responsibility of DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial owners by participants will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of beneficial owners. The lowest bidder (the “Purchaser”), as a condition of delivery of the Bonds, will be required to deposit the Bonds with DTC. TRUSTEE U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, Saint Paul, Minnesota will serve as trustee (the “Trustee”) for the Bonds, and the Authority will pay for the services of the Trustee. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION The Authority may elect on February 1, 2036, and on any day thereafter, to redeem Bonds due on or after February 1, 2037. Redemption may be in whole or in part and if in part at the option of the Authority and in such manner as the Authority shall determine. If less than all Bonds of a maturity are called for redemption, the Authority will notify DTC of the particular amount of such maturity to be redeemed. DTC will determine by lot the amount of each participant's interest in such maturity to be redeemed and each participant will then select by lot the beneficial ownership interests in such maturity to be redeemed. All redemptions shall be at a price of par plus accrued interest. SPECIAL OPTIONAL REDEMPTION The Bonds are also subject to redemption at the option of the Authority on any Business Day, in whole or in part in integral multiples of $5,000, and if in part in such order of maturity dates as the Authority may determine and by lot or other manner deemed fair as to the Bonds maturing on the same date, in the event that all or any part of the Project (as further detailed below under Security and Purpose) is lost, A-2 4926-2189-4585.2 Page 12 of 26 stolen, destroyed or damaged beyond repair and the Authority determines that the reconstruction and restoration of the Project to its prior condition is not economically feasible. All prepayments shall be at a price equal to the principal amount thereof to be redeemed plus accrued interest to the redemption date. A-3 4926-2189-4585.2 Page 13 of 26 SECURITY AND PURPOSE The Bonds will be special, limited obligations of the Economic Development Authority of the City of Wyoming, Minnesota payable solely from rental payments (the “Rental Payments”) to be received by the Authority from the City of Wyoming, Minnesota (the “City”) pursuant to a Lease Agreement between the Authority and the City dated September 1, 2026 (the “Lease”). The Bonds are issued pursuant to a Trust Indenture between the Authority and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, St. Paul, Minnesota, dated September 1, 2026 (the “Indenture”); a resolution of the Authority dated August 10, 2026 (the “Authority Resolution”); and a concurring resolution of the City dated July 21, 2026 (the “City Resolution”). The Bonds do not constitute a debt for which the faith and credit or taxing powers of the Authority, the City, or the State of Minnesota will be pledged. The City’s obligation under the Lease is subject to annual appropriation. Proceeds of the Bonds will be used to finance (i) the acquisition and remodel of a new City Hall and remodeling of the Fire Station and (ii) costs of issuance of the Bonds. BANK QUALIFIED TAX-EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS The Authority will designate the Bonds as qualified tax-exempt obligations for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. BIDDING PARAMETERS Proposals shall be for not less than $9,270,000 (Par) plus accrued interest, if any, on the total principal amount of the Bonds. Rates shall be in integral multiples of 1/100 or 1/8 of 1%. The initial price to the public for each maturity as stated on the proposal must be 98.0% or greater. Proposals for the Bonds may contain a maturity schedule providing for a combination of serial bonds and term bonds. All term bonds shall be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption at a price of par plus accrued interest to the date of redemption scheduled to conform to the maturity schedule set forth herein. In order to designate term bonds, the proposal must specify “Years of Term Maturities” in the spaces provided on the proposal form. No proposal can be withdrawn or amended after the time set for receiving proposals on the Sale Date unless the meeting of the Authority scheduled for award of the Bonds is adjourned, recessed, or continued to another date without award of the Bonds having been made. Bonds of the same maturity shall bear a single rate from the date of the Bonds to the date of maturity. No conditional proposals will be accepted. ESTABLISHMENT OF ISSUE PRICE In order to provide the Authority with information necessary for compliance with Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Code”), the Purchaser will be required to assist the Authority in establishing the issue price of the Bonds and shall complete, execute, and deliver to the Authority prior to the closing date, a written certification in a form acceptable to the Purchaser, the Authority, and Bond Counsel (the “Issue Price Certificate”) containing the following for each maturity of the Bonds (and, if different interest rates apply within a maturity, to each separate CUSIP number within that maturity): (i) the interest rate; (ii) the reasonably expected initial offering price to the “public” (as said term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-1(f) (the “Regulation”)) or the sale price; and (iii) to the extent the hold-the-offering-price rule applies, pricing wires or equivalent communications supporting such offering or sale price. Any action to be taken or documentation to be received by the Authority pursuant hereto may be taken or received on behalf of the Authority by BTMA. The Authority intends that the sale of the Bonds pursuant to this Terms of Proposal shall constitute a “competitive sale” as defined in the Regulation based on the following: (i) the Authority shall cause this Terms of Proposal to be disseminated to potential bidders in a manner that is reasonably designed to reach potential bidders; (ii) all bidders shall have an equal opportunity to submit a bid; (iii) the Authority reasonably expects that it will receive bids from at least three bidders that have established industry reputations for underwriting municipal bonds such as the Bonds; and A-4 4926-2189-4585.2 Page 14 of 26 (iv) the Authority anticipates awarding the sale of the Bonds to the bidder who provides a proposal with the lowest true interest cost, as set forth in this Terms of Proposal (See “AWARD” herein). Any bid submitted pursuant to this Terms of Proposal shall be considered a firm offer for the purchase of the Bonds, as specified in the proposal. The Purchaser shall constitute an “underwriter” as said term is defined in the Regulation. By submitting its proposal, the Purchaser confirms that it shall require any agreement among underwriters, a selling group agreement, or other agreement to which it is a party relating to the initial sale of the Bonds, to include provisions requiring compliance with the provisions of the Code and the Regulation regarding the initial sale of the Bonds. If all of the requirements of a “competitive sale” are not satisfied, the Authority shall advise the Purchaser of such fact prior to the time of award of the sale of the Bonds to the Purchaser. In such event, any proposal submitted will not be subject to cancellation or withdrawal. Within twenty-four (24) hours of the notice of award of the sale of the Bonds, the Purchaser shall advise the Authority and BTMA if 10% of any maturity of the Bonds (and, if different interest rates apply within a maturity, to each separate CUSIP number within that maturity) has been sold to the public and the price at which it was sold. The Authority will treat such sale price as the “issue price” for such maturity, applied on a maturity-by-maturity basis. The Authority will not require the Purchaser to comply with that portion of the Regulation commonly described as the “hold-the-offering-price” requirement for the remaining maturities, but the Purchaser may elect such option. If the Purchaser exercises such option, the Authority will apply the initial offering price to the public provided in the proposal as the issue price for such maturities. If the Purchaser does not exercise that option, it shall thereafter promptly provide the Authority and BTMA the prices at which 10% of such maturities are sold to the public; provided such determination shall be made and the Authority and BTMA notified of such prices whether or not the closing date has occurred, until the 10% test has been satisfied as to each maturity of the Bonds or until all of the Bonds of a maturity have been sold. GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT To have its proposal considered for award, the Purchaser is required to submit a good faith deposit via wire transfer to the Authority in the amount of $92,700 (the “Deposit”) no later than 1:30 P.M., Central Time on the Sale Date. The Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the timely delivery of its Deposit, and neither the Authority nor BTMA have any liability for delays in the receipt of the Deposit. If the Deposit is not received by the specified time, the Authority may, at its sole discretion, reject the proposal of the lowest bidder, direct the second lowest bidder to submit a Deposit, and thereafter award the sale to such bidder. A Deposit will be considered timely delivered to the Authority upon submission of a federal wire reference number by the specified time. Wire transfer instructions will be available from BTMA following the receipt and tabulation of proposals. The successful bidder must send an e-mail including the following information: (i) the federal reference number and time released; (ii) the amount of the wire transfer; and (iii) the issue to which it applies. Once an award has been made, the Deposit received from the Purchaser will be retained by the Authority and no interest will accrue to the Purchaser. The amount of the Deposit will be deducted at settlement from the purchase price. In the event the Purchaser fails to comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be retained by the Authority. AWARD The Bonds will be awarded on the basis of the lowest interest rate to be determined on a true interest cost (TIC) basis calculated on the proposal prior to any adjustment made by the Authority. The Authority's computation of the interest rate of each proposal, in accordance with customary practice, will be controlling. The Authority will reserve the right to: (i) waive non-substantive informalities of any proposal or of matters relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (ii) reject all proposals without cause, and (iii) reject any proposal that the Authority determines to have failed to comply with the terms herein. BOND INSURANCE AT PURCHASER'S OPTION The Authority has not applied for or pre-approved a commitment for any policy of municipal bond insurance with respect to the Bonds. If the Bonds qualify for municipal bond insurance and a bidder A-5 4926-2189-4585.2 Page 15 of 26 desires to purchase a policy, such indication, the maturities to be insured, and the name of the desired insurer must be set forth on the bidder’s proposal. The Authority specifically reserves the right to reject any bid specifying municipal bond insurance, even though such bid may result in the lowest TIC to the Authority. All costs associated with the issuance and administration of such policy and associated ratings and expenses (other than any independent rating requested by the Authority) shall be paid by the successful bidder. Failure of the municipal bond insurer to issue the policy after the award of the Bonds shall not constitute cause for failure or refusal by the successful bidder to accept delivery of the Bonds. CUSIP NUMBERS If the Bonds qualify for the assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the Bonds; however, neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect thereto will constitute cause for failure or refusal by the Purchaser to accept delivery of the Bonds. BTMA will apply for CUSIP numbers pursuant to Rule G-34 implemented by the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board.

Hosting a business engagement event provides an opportunity to strengthen those relationships while encouraging communication on issues affecting the local business community. Staff has been coordinating with the Chisago City Economic Development Authority to plan a joint Business Engagement Event at Winehaven Winery. The event will bring together businesses from both communities to network, build relationships, and receive information on topics affecting the Highway 8 corridor. The event will provide an opportunity for business networking and will feature a Highway 8 Construction Project Update. With the Highway 8 reconstruction expected to impact businesses throughout the corridor, attendees will have an opportunity to receive project information, ask questions, and engage in discussion with local officials. Invitations will be extended to businesses within the Cities of Wyoming and Chisago City. Hosting the event jointly allows both Economic Development Authorities to bring businesses together for networking and discussion on issues affecting the local business community.

The proposed project represents nearly $20 million in private investment and is expected to create approximately 57 new full time jobs, reinforcing Rosenbauer's long term commitment to the City of Wyoming. The expansion will increase manufacturing, service, warehouse, and training capacity while supporting continued growth of one of Wyoming's largest employers and an internationally recognized manufacturer of fire apparatus and emergency response vehicles. To support the project, the City is partnering with Rosenbauer on an application to the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development for $200,000 in Minnesota Investment Fund assistance, along with an $800,000 Job Creation Fund application. These competitive state programs are designed to encourage private investment and job creation throughout Minnesota. This project represents one of the largest private capital investments in Wyoming in recent years and is an excellent example of the type of business expansion and job growth the Economic Development Authority works to encourage. Staff will continue to work with Rosenbauer and DEED throughout the application process and will provide additional updates as the project progresses. Page 25 of 26 Page 26 of 26
