The termination date for this revenue allocation area as set forth in the Plan is December 31, 2017; except for revenues to be received in 2018, as authorized pursuant to Idaho Code § 50- 2905(7). The Agency has reviewed the projected revenues and expenses of the Plan and has determined the revenue allocation area can be terminated by December 31, 2018, effective retroactive to January 1, 2018, as it relates to assessed values within the project area. As a result, the Agency does not intend to take revenue allocation funds in calendar year 2019, generated from the 2018 assessed values, and the allocation of revenues under § 50-2908, Idaho Code, shall cease effective January 1, 2018. Intent Regarding Delinquencies: The Agency does not intend to receive revenue allocation funds from delinquency tax payments in calendar year 2019, or subsequent years, generated from the 2017 assessed values, or earlier. Fiscal Year 2019 Budeet Summ The Agency expects most of the expenses from any remaining improvements to be completed under the Plan to be incurred and satisfied by the Agency's current fiscal year ending September 30, 2018, with the exception of possible project carryover costs on the street reconstruction project at the corner of 2"d West and 1St North in the estimated amount of $300,000. Additionally, there are administrative fees and costs due to termination that will be incurred during the Agency's next fiscal year (FY2019). An estimate of the remaining administrative fees and costs is $30,000. The Agency will not have sufficient funds on deposit for payment of all final project costs owed to the City of Rexburg, but will have sufficient funds for any remaining administrative costs and fees. At this point, the Agency is anticipating there will not be a surplus to be distributed prior to the end of the Agency's 2018 fiscal year, September 30, 2018, nor a final surplus to be distributed prior to the end of the Agency's 2019 fiscal year, September 30, 2019. If there are any available funds at the end of the Agency's 2019 fiscal year, they will be remitted to the County Treasurer to be distributed to the taxing districts in the same manner and proportion as the most recent distribution to the taxing districts of the taxes on the taxable property located within the revenue allocation area. 1 Real Pronertv Disposition: The Agency currently owns a parcel consisting of approximately one and one-third acre generally located at the corner of 2nd West and 1 st North (the "Site"). The Agency has recently awarded development rights to a developer for the redevelopment of the Site in conformance with the Washington School Plan. The developer and Agency intend to refine the proposed scope of development and other development details within the next few months, ultimately entering into a Disposition and Development Agreement ("DDA"). The DDA will include a schedule of performance and will address the purchase price to be paid by the developer, subject to certain conditions. The Agency will comply with the disposition requirements set forth in Idaho Code section 50- 2011. The Agency anticipates the DDA will be approved and executed by September 30, 2018; however, disposition of the Site may not occur until after that date. Any proceeds from the sale of the Site shall be used to reimburse the City of Rexburg for funds the City advanced for the public improvements related to the reconfiguration and reconstruction of the corner of 2nd West and 1 st North. The Agency previously committed to reimburse the City for the costs of those public improvements. The reimbursement amount due the City totals over $431,000. The Agency anticipates paying the city about $155,000 on or before September 30, 2018. Any sale proceeds from the Site will be applied to the remaining amount due to the City. If sale proceeds are less than sufficient to pay the remaining amount due the City, the Agency will be relieved of any additional reimbursement requirement. If sale proceeds exceed the remaining amount due, the excess will be disbursed to Madison County for distribution to the taxing entities on or before September 30, 2019. In the event the disposition of the Site to the developer does not occur prior to September 30, 2019, the Agency intends to transfer the Site to the City on or before September 30, 2019, which will relieve the Agency of any further commitment to the City in behalf of this project. 2 Exhibit B Rexburg Urban Renewal Agency Washington School District FY 2018 Termination Budget Construction/Demolition Costs Owed to City $431,695.17 Estimated Future Administrative Costs $ 30,000.00 Total Estimated Costs to Closeout $461,695.17 Current Cash Balance as of 4130118 Estimated Tax Receipts through 9130118 $ 95,497.26 $ 90,000.00 Total Available Funds through 9130/18 $185,497.26 Estimated Net Deficit Owed to City $ 276,197.91 Estimated Possible City Writeoff $276;197.91 Estimated Payment to City by 9/30/18 Estimated Administrative Costs before 9/30/18 $155,000.00 $ 151000.00 Total Budgeted Expenditures for FY 2018 $170,000.00 Estimated Carryover for FY 2019 $ 16,000.00 Estimated Expenses for FY 2019 $ 161000.00 e.. d E N.3rd W —. we , E 1 l N �T #' 40 ..N 2nd 0 ■1 IQ't T• EXHIBIT D WASHINGTON SCHOOL PLAN LEGAL DESCRIPTION OF URBAN RENEWAL PROJECT AREA AND REVENUE ALLOCATION AREA REXBURG, IDAHO A tract of land described as follows: Parcel located in the City of Rexburg, Idaho, commencing at a point that is North 69°55'40" West a distance of 2375.37 feet from the Southeast corner of Section 19 Township 6 North, Range 40 East, Boise Meridian, Madison County, Idaho, with said point located at the Southwest corner of Rexburg City Block 23 Lot 3, thence West a distance of 1612 feet along the North right-of-way line of 1St North Street to the Southeast corner of Rexburg City Block 26 Lot 4, thence South a distance of 891 feet along the West right-of-way line of 3`d West Street to the Northeast corner of Rexburg City Block 42 Lotl, thence East a distance of 1612 feet along the South right-of-way line of Main Street to the Southwest corner of Rexburg City Block 39 Lot 2, thence North a distance of 891 feet along the East right-of-way line of 1St West Street to the point of beginning.
