Accepting Minutes of Previous Meeting. Councilor Mavodones (NM) moved to accept the minutes from the 7/17/18 meeting, 2nd by JC, Vote 2- 0 by all present, motion passed. 2. TIF Amendments: The Chair noted that the TIF amendments proposed would not be acted on at the meeting, but this was the first of a series of meetings on the topic. Greg Mitchell (GM) introduced the topic by noting the goal was to increase utilization of TIF District financing for City uses. This was not a proposal to increase so-called Credit Enhancement Agreements (CEA.) GM described the maps and districts that were included in the packet: Bayside, Downtown Transit , Waterfront. GM referred to a table in the packet that described uses and potential changes to uses. 1 EDC Meeting Minutes September 4, 2018 Draft Bayside: 130 acres, runs to year 2033, currently at 100% capture. Changes proposed to uses include workforce training, infrastructure financing, prorated contribution to staffing. No changes proposed to capture or geography. Downtown Transit: 421 acres, runs to year 2045. Changes to allowable uses proposed (pages 8-10 of packet) are comparable to Bayside, with parking, transit services added. No changes to geography, but increase in capture from 22% to 100%. Waterfront: Runs to year 2032. Proposed changes (described on pages 11and 12 of the packet) include comparable financing and staffing provisions as proposed for Bayside and Downtown. Additionally, add multi-modal transit, new pier construction, environmental studies, climate change planning and infrastructure, and dredging. Keep the 100% capture. The Waterfront is also proposed to add 15 specific sites and to expand the potential growth area to include the Western Waterfront. The 15 sites were chosen due to on-going or near-term construction plans, including public streets. The sites were listed with reference to the map. GM also provided a primer on “why TIF?” describing district wide infrastructure advantages and the cost savings created through “sheltering” new taxes from County taxes, State school funding formula penalties, and State revenue sharing penalties. Two recent additions to the Waterfront TIF District were noted (WEX and Union Wharf) as examples. Municipal sites were added due to zero valuation and planned or potential projects. Brendan O’Connell (BO) circulated supporting material describing the magnitude of the “sheltering” effect. Committee members asked clarifying questions on the magnitude of sheltering potential and dollar value savings. BO noted that other communities are more aggressive in using TIFs to maximize the sheltering effect. City Manager, Jon Jennings (JJ) noted the use of such tools to finance critical infrastructure, as was done in South Portland with sewer projects. The City Manager recommended the changes. The Committee and Attorney Saffian (JS) clarified the distinction between capture rate and basis valuation. NM asked if property owners of effected parcels would see any impacts? GM: No, payments would be the same to tax payer with funds set aside in a district specific TIF account. The Committee and staff discussed the origin of the Waterfront Growth Area lines. 2 EDC Meeting Minutes September 4, 2018 Draft Mayor Strimling (ES) asked clarifying questions regarding the location of data and the distinction between “in district”, “out of district” and City wide. GM clarified. ES looked to confirm that workforce training was available city-wide. GM confirmed. JC noted that majority of use of funds to date has been for infrastructure and these changes look to expand use of funds. ES, JC, GM, and JS held a discussion on use of funds allowed for training and education under state restrictions. It was clarified that apprentice programs would qualify under the general category of “skills development.” A general discussion on adult ed followed where it was noted that State review would likely influence outcomes. The need for English language training was noted. GM noted the need for broad, flexible use categories. ES requested clarification on why, in the Waterfront, “maritime industry” was added as a qualifier in the use table for training. A discussion followed exploring both state rules and the city Waterfront TIF ordinance. ES requested a description of the tradeoffs between sheltered funds from TIF capture versus impacts to the general fund. GM noted that the Council can always reduce the capture from budget to budget. JJ followed by noting the constriction of CIP funding and the opportunity to offset the squeeze on the CIP by using TIF dollars. A general discussion related to sheltering and offsets to the general fund followed. The City Manager concluded by noting the importance of establishing value now so that new value moving forward can be captured. ES questioned whether the potential for the City to become a “minimum receiver” community under state school funding might offset the capturing advantages. Others noted the county and revenue sharing issues. Following statements from ES describing a hope for use of funds for affordable housing, the committee and staff discussed the distinction between Affordable Housing TIFs and Commercial TIF Districts. GM noted the practice of removing projects from Commercial TIFs to create or add them to AH TIFs. The committee and JS explored the use of TIF funds for affordable housing, concluding that Commercial TIFs were not likely suitable. JS clarified that Waterfront training was likely mostly a local issue. 3 EDC Meeting Minutes September 4, 2018 Draft Councilor Cook (KC) asked for a breakdown of capture rates historically. BO noted 22% Downtown, 66% Bayside, 71 % Waterfront. KC followed with a question regarding use of funds for finance costs versus project costs. BO described the potential to bond projects through the CIP and then pay the debt service with TIF funds. GM added that the proposed changes would allow finance costs to be paid by TIF in all 3 districts. KC asked if that included Portland Landing and redevelopment of the POT. GM replied that Ocean Gateway and the POT, yes. Portland Landing, only partially as “parks” were excluded from use of TIF funds under state rules. Councilors concluded with thanks to staff and support for continued conversations on the topic. 3. Annual TIF Report JC noted the good timing of the report to allow the Finance Committee to benefit from the information. GM: Noted that this is the 5th year of an annual report. The report is a high level look at the program for the Council and the public providing a complete list of TIF fund uses. While CEAs get most of the attention, there are only 12 active single site TIFS; 6 affordable housing (AH), 6 Commercial – 3 of which will expire within the next fiscal year, returning those tax $ to the general fund. GM drew attention to Page 10 of the packet explaining base value and non-capture value. Within the appendix, there is a project by project breakdown for every TIF. GM concluded by noting the transparency of the reporting and staff’s pride in the work. JC noted the constituent value of the report. Other Councilors thanked staff for the work. ES thanked staff and inquired if the performance of projects, such as job creation/retention, was tracked and reported? GM noted that would be additional work. 4 EDC Meeting Minutes September 4, 2018 Draft ES requested results of such inquiries be reported in the table. GM agreed. There followed a general discussion by members on reporting. Councilor Ali (PA) asked what remedy was in place to address non-performance? GM noted that there was no “claw back” provision in the agreements. Additional research would be needed, noting that such provisions were more typically required in a sale of property and not in a TIF agreement. ES inquired on the Imucell TIF and valuation totals. GM noted the Personal Property was not subject to TIF, but will look into potential discrepencies. KC asked if the City was maximizing value and if there was room for expansion? GM clarified the size of the areas was totaled (page 6 of packet) and that there was room to expand currently and more so after TIFs expire. JJ noted the potential to expand to off-peninsula areas such as Woodfords Corner after cleaning up issues on the peninsula. Committee and staff held a general discussion on expansion potential. MOTION: Councilor Mavodones made a motion to recommend forwarding to the City Council for approval. 2nd by JC. VOTE: 2-0, passed by all present. Motion passed. 4. Executive Session to discuss potential sale of City land near the Westbrook Line ES asked for disclosure of location of site. GM described that the subject parcel was located along the boundary of Westbrook adjacent to the Pike Industries site. Committee discussed the location and it was confirmed that the site was not along Rand Road. MOTION: Councilor Mavodones made a motion to go into executive session, consistent with state statute cited. 2nd by JC. VOTE: 2-0, passed by all present. Motion passed. Committee went into executive session. No additional motions were made prior to adjournment. Respectfully submitted. Bill Needelman, Waterfront Coordinator 5 MEMORANDUM PLANNING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PLANNING DIVISION To: Economic Development Committee From: Nell Donaldson, Senior Planner, Department of Planning & Urban Development Date: September 13, 2018 Re: Impact Fee Study Update Meeting Date: September 18, 2018 I. INTRODUCTION Earlier this year, the city’s Planning Division, with the assistance of the Department of Public Works and the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Facilities, began the process of developing an impact fee study for the city. The intent of the study is to explore the potential for three municipal impact fees, for parks and recreation facilities, transportation, and wastewater, as a means of establishing a predictable, transparent, and equitable system for mitigating the impacts of development as it occurs in Portland over the next 10 years. Planning Division staff met with the Economic Development Committee to introduce the Impact Fee Study in June of this year. That meeting included an overview of impact fees, a discussion on the ways that the city currently addresses mitigation of development impacts, and a brief synopsis of the scope of work for the study (Attachment 2). The purpose of this second EDC meeting is to provide an update on the study, present a set of preliminary maximum defensible fee calculations, share draft ordinance language, and gather committee feedback prior to presenting to the full Council in a workshop scheduled for September 24. 2. BACKGROUND ON IMPACT FEES A. What are impact fees? Impact fees are charges paid by new development to fund the cost of providing municipal facilities to serve that development. This idea is premised on the concept that when development occurs, it can bring many benefits, but it also affects the existing infrastructure around it by adding more cars, bikes, and pedestrians to the streets, increasing sewer and stormwater flows into city systems, and infusing additional visitors into the city’s parks and open spaces. In turn, these facilities require additional capital investment. As a result of this thinking, impact fees are widely used throughout the United States. Impact fees have been used in some communities in the United States for the past 50+ years. Figure 1: Impact fee process Economic Development Committee 9/18/18 Impact Fee Study: Update Table 1: Sample of Maine Communities with Impact Fees Transportation Sewer/Water Open Fire/EMS Schools Space/Recreation Brewer ⏺ ⏺ Brunswick ⏺ ⏺ Freeport ⏺ Gorham ⏺ ⏺ Lewiston ⏺ ⏺ Pownal ⏺ ⏺ Saco ⏺ ⏺ ⏺ Scarborough ⏺ ⏺ Windham ⏺ ⏺ York ⏺ ⏺ B. Where are impact fees? Although impact fees are particularly common in U.S. states that have experienced rapid population growth in the west and south, they are found in the majority of states nationwide. Concord and Manchester, NH have impact fees, as does Burlington, VT. In Maine, the legislature laid the foundation for impact fees with the Comprehensive Planning and Land Use Regulation Act of 1987. In the time since, communities across the state, mostly in southern Maine, have developed and implemented impact fee ordinances (Table 1). C. How may impact fees be used? The uses of impact fees vary widely, depending on state enabling legislation, but in all cases impact fees may only be used on capital projects to construct, expand, or replace infrastructure required to serve new development. In Maine, impact fees may be used for transportation projects, public safety facilities, sewer and water systems, parks and open space, and school improvements. Impact fees may not be used to pay for operations or maintenance, and may not be used to address existing deficiencies in these systems. 3. MAXIMUM DEFENSIBLE FEE CALCULATIONS Regardless of where impact fees are used, courts have established that there must be a rational nexus and rough proportionality between the type and scale of development and the fee imposed. Per guidance from the former Maine State Planning Office, “the expansion of the facility and/or service must be necessary and must be caused by the development; the fees charged must be based on the costs of the new facility/service apportioned to the new development; and the fees must benefit those who pay” (Maine State Planning Office, 4). Given these standards, in order for impact fees to be charged, a community must conduct an analysis that identifies growth-related infrastructure costs and apportions those costs to projected development, often by development type, on a square foot, unit, or per trip basis. The City of Portland’s Impact Fee Study is meant to provide such an analysis. To date, the study has included the following work: A. Development of population, employment, and land use assumptions. The first step of the study involved the development of 10-year growth projections (i.e. the projected change in population, employees, trips, and wastewater flows for which impacts could potentially be assessed)(Attachment 3). This step included the collection of background data on population, employment, land use, and wastewater flows in the city, a review of trends, and a survey of data from other sources (e.g. estimates from GPCOG, PACTS). 2 Economic Development Committee 9/18/18 Impact Fee Study: Update B. Determination of capital facility needs and current levels of service. The second step of the study involved the collection of data necessary to identify capital costs associated with projected growth: • The Department of Parks, Recreation, and Facilities provided an inventory of current parks and recreation facilities and identified replacement costs for each. This inventory was used to calculate existing level of service for parks and recreation facilities on a per capita and per job basis. • The Department of Public Works generated capital transportation and wastewater project lists based on recent Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) requests. Given the volume of the transportation projects, projects were subsequently categorized as high-, medium-, and low-readiness. DPW staff then determined the proportion of these capital projects, if any, attributable to future growth, based on project location and project type. C. Development of maximum defensible fee calculations. In the third step of the study, different commonly- used impact fee methodologies were reviewed for suitability with respect to the three impact fee categories under consideration. Subsequently, maximum defensible fee calculations were developed: • The existing parks and recreation inventory, replacement cost figures, and growth factors from the demographic analysis were combined to calculate maximum defensible parks fees for residential and non-residential land uses. This fee is based on an incremental expansion model, which is premised on the concept that, as growth occurs, it pays to maintain existing levels of service for parks and recreation facilities. • Transportation fees were calculated using a plan-based approach. The share of high-readiness capital projects that could be attributed to growth was allocated across projected increases in person trips associated with population and employment projections, resulting in maximum defensible transportation fees for both residential and non-residential land uses. • Likewise, for the wastewater fee calculations, a plan-based approach was used. Again, the share of capital project costs that could be attributed to growth was apportioned over projected increases in wastewater flows, resulting in maximum defensible wastewater fee calculations based on meter size. D. Stakeholder outreach. In late July, these initial maximum supportable fee calculations were shared with the study’s stakeholder group, consisting of neighborhood representatives, developers, and representatives of organizations with a stake in economic development in the community more broadly. This group reviewed the calculations and provided valuable feedback on methodology, assumptions, and the level of the maximum defensible fee calculations. E. Revisions to maximum defensible fee calculations. In response to these comments, DPW, Parks and Recreation, and Planning staff met to discuss ways in which to respond to comments and modify assumptions to develop a revised set of fees. As a product of these discussions, several changes were made to the assumptions, including: • Adding additional non-residential uses to the parks fee • Eliminating parks vehicles and recreation facilities for which the city is unlikely to expand capacity in the future • Modifying assumptions regarding future MaineDOT/federal funding • Modifying city/growth shares for some transportation capital projects • Broadening land use categories on the transportation fee • Modifying the wastewater fee to include a credit for future stormwater and wastewater fees that will cover existing debt service The resulting fee calculations are those presented here (Attachment 4). These revised fee calculations are significantly lower than the calculations prepared in the early summer and originally presented to the 3 Economic Development Committee 9/18/18 Impact Fee Study: Update stakeholder group. This means that the fees will not go as far as those initially calculated in terms of covering growth-related infrastructure costs in the city. As a result, the City will need to look to the General Fund and other sources to cover a larger portion of these costs. F. Analysis of maximum defensible fee calculations. In addition to gathering feedback on the revised maximum supportable fee calculations from this committee, the Planning Board, and the full City Council over the coming week, staff has shared the revised fee calculations with the stakeholder group and offered to meet with members of the group to review and discuss. Staff has also engaged a third party to assess the potential impact of the fee calculations on various development types. Last, the impact fee consultant has begun an analysis to examine the effect of the maximum supportable fee calculations on housing affordability within the city. 4. DRAFT ORDINANCE In order to collect impact fees, municipalities must have enacted a council-adopted ordinance that meets a series of requirements established by state statute. These requirements include the provision of language to address the relationship between fees and growth’s share of infrastructure costs, the treatment of revenues generated from impact fees, timely use of impact fees, and refunds (Title 30-A MRSA §4354). Staff has used the state statute, impact fee ordinances from communities in Maine and nationwide, and guidance from the former State Planning Office to develop draft ordinance language to accompany the fee calculations (Attachment 5). This ordinance language addresses not only the technical requirements of the statute but issues critical to the administration of impact fees: A. Applicability. The draft ordinance is written such that any development on a site that generates an increase in impact would be subject to impact fees. This would include new development, additions to existing buildings which result in net new residential units, non-residential square footage, or wastewater meters, and changes of use which result in a net increase in impact per the impact fee schedule. B. Impact fee schedule and basic guidelines for the calculation of the fee. The draft ordinance includes language designed to clarify methods for calculating fees for mixed-use development, redevelopment, additions, and changes of use. C. Provisions for the modification of the fee amount. The draft ordinance has been written to allow the Planning Board, based on a property-owner’s application, to grant a credit against required impact fees for any infrastructure improvements made by a developer which are part of or equivalent to the projects for which impact fees are being collected. Likewise, the draft ordinance includes language allowing the Planning Board to modify or waive impact fees for developers that can prove that a proposed use will have no or significantly-diminished demands on the capital facilities for which impact fees are being collected. D. Waivers for affordable housing. The draft ordinance includes a reference to Division 30, which provides for fee reductions for affordable housing developments. Under the draft ordinance, the existing fee reductions granted in Division 30 would apply to impact fees. E. Administration of funds. Lastly, the draft ordinance language also addresses the timing of impact fee collection, accounting procedures, and procedure for refunds as necessary. The draft ordinance has been reviewed by Corporation Counsel. It is anticipated that Corporation Counsel will continue to review as future revised drafts are developed. Simultaneously, staff has begun discussions with Finance and Inspections on how fees would be collected and administered. 5. COMPARISON WITH THE CURRENT SYSTEM At previous meetings on the Impact Fee Study, questions have been raised about the city’s current system for collecting mitigation for projects that have impacts on municipal infrastructure. The City of Portland’s existing site plan ordinance allows the city to require mitigation “so as to be consistent with City Council approved master plans and facilities plans and with off-premises infrastructure, including but not limited to sewer and stormwater, streets, 4 Economic Development Committee 9/18/18 Impact Fee Study: Update trails, pedestrian and bicycle network, environmental management or other public facilities” (City of Portland Land Use Code 14-526(c)1.a). Further, the city’s Technical Manual requires that developments that generate more than 100 passenger car equivalents obtain a Traffic Movement Permit (TMP) under the city’s delegated review authority. The issuance of a TMP includes a “summary of findings and recommendations for improvements and other impact mitigation measures” (City of Portland Technical Manual, 2). Under these regulations, the city negotiates mitigation on a case-by-case basis predicated on an analysis of impacts identified through the site plan or subdivision review process. As a product of this process, in some cases, developers make in-kind physical improvements, upgrading a traffic light or installing pedestrian signalheads and ramps at a nearby intersection. In other cases, developers are required to make financial infrastructure contributions proportionate to their impacts. These contributions are held in separate “infrastructure accounts” until they can be drawn down to pay for the improvement identified through the review process. For reference, data shows that, as mitigation of impacts for site plans approved between May of 2013 and May of 2018, the Planning Board and/or the Planning Authority required infrastructure contributions totaling just over $1 million. It should be noted that this figure does not include in-kind work completed by developers and some substantial contributions yet to come, including that from the Portland Company redevelopment. The majority of infrastructure contributions collected as mitigation during that timeframe were for traffic improvements. Our current system for collecting mitigation has some significant weaknesses: • It involves a negotiated process that creates uncertainty for developers, neighbors, and the City. This negotiation process takes additional time, and also involves expending costs that could otherwise be put directly into mitigation. • The staff audit of infrastructure contributions over the past five years indicates that the City is not adequately planning for growth. Projects are generally not fully mitigating their impacts and allowing the City’s plan for growth to be implemented in a timely fashion. As a result, the backlog of needed infrastructure projects increases without a financial plan to adequately fund the work. 6. NEXT STEPS 1. Presentation to Planning Board at workshop on 9/20/18; 2.

Draft Impact Fee Ordinance, 9/13/18 5 Memorandum To: Economic Development Committee From: Jeff Levine, Director, Planning & Urban Development Date: August 31, 2017 Re: Impact Fees One of the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan is to look at a system of Impact Fees for the City as a way of both funding city infrastructure, and providing predictability for developers. This memo outlines what Impact Fees are, how they have been applied elsewhere, and a general approach to an Impact Fee system for Portland. What Are Impact Fees? Impact Fees are a systematic way of having new development pay for the infrastructure demands it creates. Cities that use Impact Fees choose certain types of infrastructure they feel needs to be improved and develop a baseline and needs assessment for each of them. Costs are developed for future needs and then assigned to new development as it comes in. When sufficient funds have been collected, the improvements are made. Often there is a feedback system in place – as improvements are made, a new needs assessment is conducted and the Impact Fee system is revised accordingly. Impact fees can be a logical and fair way to address public impacts of new development. Developers are able to plug a mitigation cost into their pro forma and plan for it, rather than having to negotiate mitigation and deal with the uncertainty of that process. The City is able to devote energy into implementing these improvements, rather than into extensive negotiations with each developer based on their documented impacts. Neighbors and community groups will know what projects in their neighborhood are being funded and more confidence that they will be completed. Commonly, impact fees are collected to mitigate impacts on transportation systems; parks & open space; schools; and stormwater/sewer systems. Costs are charged on either a square foot basis or on a per unit basis. For example, Concord, NH, has an impact fee for transportation improvements that charges $2,110 per new single family home, $1,449 per multifamily unit, and $1.70 per square foot of office space. Concord also charges a per unit fee for recreational facilities and for schools. Impact Fees Memorandum to Economic Development Committee 8/31/17 Page 2 It is critical that any impact fee system be based on solid data regarding current and future needs, as well as meeting tests established by the U.S. Supreme Court related to the fees having a rational nexus to the development (Nollan v. California Coastal Commission, 483 U.S. 825 (1987)) and have rough proportionality to the actual impact of the project (Dolan v. City of Tigard, 512 U.S. 374 (1994).) The American Planning Association has a policy guide on impact fees that provides a solid basis for thinking about their utility: “Impact Fees, when based on a comprehensive plan and used in conjunction with a sound capital improvement plan, can be an effective too for ensuring adequate infrastructure to accommodate growth where and when it is anticipated” Where Are They Used Nationally? Impact fees are used in a majority of states nationwide. A 2015 survey looked at 270 communities using impact fees as part of their development review process in 29 states and found the average impact fee for single family homes was $11,868 and the average impact fee for office development was $4,356/1000 square feet. 1 1 National Impact Fee Survey 2015, Clancy Mullen, Duncan Associates, Austin, TX Impact Fees Memorandum to Economic Development Committee 8/31/17 Page 3 Impact fees are most common in Florida, Colorado, the southwest, and the far west. However, communities in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont use Impact Fees. Municipalities in Massachusetts are not permitted to charge impact fees for development, except in very limited cases. Only 10 states (including Maine) have specific state legislation authorizing the use of impact fees generally. In many other states, local governments have pursued impact fees, either through home rule authority or other mechanisms. Some communities similar to Portland have well established impact fee systems, including Concord, NH; Manchester, NH; and Burlington, VT. Generally larger cities have not implemented impact fee systems, although Chicago has an impact fee system for parks and open spaces. In Oakland, California, there is a proposed impact fee system that is a useful example for Portland, in that it is comprehensive in approach and does not tie the fees to specific improvements. Their zone approach is an interesting methodology for a densely- developed city. What About in Maine? Maine’s legislature authorized the use of impact fees in 1987 as part of an overall update to the state’s planning and land use laws. Title 30-A M.R.S. §4354allows cities to pass an ordinance to require collection of impact fees for a variety of uses, including wastewater collection and treatment; solid waste facilities; fire protection; transportation; and parks and open space. While public education is not listed as an explicitly authorized purpose, it has been accepted as another authorized use for impact fees in Maine. Several communities in Maine have adopted impact fees for a variety of uses. These include: • York, where they collect impact fees for schools, water, and sewer infrastructure; • Scarborough, where they collect impact fees for specific transportation improvements and for schools; • Gorham, where they collect impact fees for water improvements; open space and recreation; and schools; and • Saco, where they collect impact fees for wastewater improvements. What Types of Impact Fees are Used? As mentioned above, impact fees are used for a variety of public infrastructure needs. The most common fees are for: • Schools • Wastewater and Stormwater Impact Fees Memorandum to Economic Development Committee 8/31/17 Page 4 • Water Supply • Transportation Infrastructure • Parks, Recreation and Open Space • Libraries • Public Safety Fees were traditionally charged at a uniform level for each use. More recently there has been some stratification of fees. For example, some communities charge school impact fees for homes with three or more bedrooms only, or charge a lower fee for smaller units. Similarly, some impact fee systems charge less or nothing for developments utilizing existing infrastructure, such as in a traditional town center. Source: National Impact Fee Survey 2015, Clancy Mullen, Duncan Associates, Austin, TX What Current City Policies and Ordinances are Similar to Impact Fees? As part of the City’s site plan review process, and as delegated by the state to issue Traffic Movement Permits (TMP) for the Maine Department of Transportation, mitigation is currently negotiated on a case-by-case basis. Applicants submit a transportation study, stormwater analysis, and other documentation outlining their estimates of the impact of the development on City infrastructure. Sometimes these studies suggest mitigation proposals, and sometimes they find that no mitigation is required. City staff and consultants review these studies and offer a response. As part of the process, a mitigation package is approved as part of the site plan approval and TMP process. Impact Fees Memorandum to Economic Development Committee 8/31/17 Page 5 Sometimes the mitigation involves a physical improvement, such as a new traffic light. Sometimes they involve an in-kind contribution to a future improvement. These contributions are held in discrete accounts in the City system until sufficient funds have been found to complete these improvements. These contributions have some similarity to impact fees but are not as comprehensive. As a result, the City may have half of the cost of a particular improvement in an account for some time, but does not have the funds needed to complete that improvement. The current system, particularly for TMP’s, is based on a “first past the threshold” trigger. In other words, until an intersection fails, developers are not asked to fund any improvements. Once the intersection fails, the cost of addressing that failure falls to the developer whose project created that last increment of impact. While that can both help and hurt the same development, it creates conflict and is not as fair as an impact fee system that would have been collecting funds from developers all along. There is a limited form of impact fees in effect in Portland for projects that wish to reduce their parking requirement. This voluntary fee-in-lieu-of parking system in effect on the Peninsula in certain zones. That system, created in 2010, allows developers to pay a fee rather than provide some of their parking on-site. That fee goes into the Sustainable Transportation Fund and is used to fund transportation alternatives, such as transit improvements, bike parking, and sidewalks. While this ordinance has had some successes, it is very limited in scope. Similarly, the inclusionary zoning ordinance is based on a study that connects new housing development and affordable housing needs. At present City mitigation efforts are limited to transportation, sewer and stormwater, and, very occasionally, school impacts. There is no systematic process for funding mitigation for the other categories listed above. As part of the 58 Fore Street TMP, staff negotiated a pilot impact fee system for transportation improvements. That methodology worked well, though it was isolated in that case to improvements specific to that geographic area. What is the Process to Create an Impact Fee System? While it is tempting to simply create an impact fee system and implement it, there are several important steps that must be taken to establish the public policy and legal framework for an effective program. 1. A city should first complete a Comprehensive Plan or comparable document that establishes the planning goal of an impact fee system and, as much as possible, sets city goals for infrastructure baselines. The recently approved Comprehensive Plan does much of this work, as do other studies completed in the past few years, such as the Trust for Public Land parks and open space study. 2. The City needs to determine in what areas impact fees will be pursued. Currently Portland only seeks mitigation for transportation and stormwater impacts in most cases. The more areas in which impact fees will be implemented, the more Impact Fees Memorandum to Economic Development Committee 8/31/17 Page 6 upfront work will be needed. The cost to developers will also be higher, but greater public benefit will be provided. 3. Those infrastructure baselines need to be refined and turned into a set of public improvements that will be needed based on expected development. The City’s Capital Improvement Plan does a good job at outlining these improvements, but it is fiscally constrained based on the City’s existing financial resources and bonding capacity. A more extensive list of needs, with estimated costs attached, will need to be developed. This can be very simple, as in the case of Scarborough where they simply sought to fund a few specific roadway projects, or more complicated. Alternatively, they can be comprehensive and address a number of impacts at once, as Oakland is doing. That would be our current recommendation. 4. An impact fee study needs to be completed to link these costs and project new development. While it is tempting to skip the study phase, this study is especially important given U.S. Supreme Court rulings in Nolan and Dolan regarding establishing a rational nexus and rough proportionality for impact fee systems. 5. The City needs to approve an impact fee ordinance with a fee schedule, and amend any other ordinances that may need changing to create such a system in accordance with 30-A M.R.S. §4354. 6. Staff needs to be educated on the new system, and educate the development and neighborhood groups on it as well, to ensure that everyone is familiar with the new process. 7. Staff needs to track the various accounts and complete the funded improvements when collections are sufficient. 8. The list of projects and fee structure will need regular revisiting and updating. At a minimum, this should be completed every few years. Ideally this work would be ongoing as part of the CIP process. What are our Next Steps? With the approval of the Comprehensive Plan, the policy basis is in place for next steps. The planned rewrite of Chapter 14 into an updated Unified Development Code is compatible with replacing the current process with a more systematic impact fee system. Our next step is to complete the nexus study that will document the rationale for the amount of the Impact Fees. Staff has completed a Request for Proposals for a consultant to complete that study with the $25,000 appropriated in the FY18 budget for this purpose. Planning has been working with Public Works; Economic Development; Parks, Recreation & Facilities, and other departments to prepare for this work. We hope to have a consultant selected in September and the nexus study completed this calendar year. We will then submit a proposed ordinance for Planning Board and City Council review. MEMORANDUM PLANNING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PLANNING DIVISION To: Economic Development Committee From: Nell Donaldson, Senior Planner, Planning & Urban Development Department Date: June 1, 2018 Re: Impact Fee Study Update Meeting Date: June 5, 2018 I. INTRODUCTION In late 2017, on the recommendation of the city’s recently-adopted comprehensive plan, at the request of the City Manager, and with the support of the Council’s Economic Development Committee, the city’s Planning Division began an investigation into the “potential of a more robust framework for assessing development-related impacts” in the city (Portland’s Plan, 67). The purpose of this exploration, as stated in Portland’s Plan, is to “generate additional funding [for facilities and services], while also adding clarity and predictability to existing [review] procedures.” This investigation began in earnest with staff research and engagement of a consultant with national experience in impact fee design. This Economic Development Committee meeting will provide an introduction to this consultant and to the scope of work for the Impact Fee Study. 2. WHAT ARE IMPACT FEES? Impact fees are charges paid by new development to fund the cost of providing municipal facilities to serve that development. This idea is premised on the concept that when development occurs, it can bring many benefits, but it also affects the existing infrastructure around it by adding more cars, bikes, and pedestrians to the streets, increasing sewer and stormwater flows into these city systems, and infusing additional visitors into the city’s parks and open spaces, which, in turn, require additional capital investment. As a result of this thinking, impact fees are widely used throughout the United States to assess the cost of new development’s share of growth- related infrastructure needs. Impact fees have been used in some communities in the United States for the past 50+ years. 3. WHERE ARE IMPACT FEES? Although impact fees are particularly common in states that have experienced rapid population growth in the west and south, they are found in the majority of states nationwide. Concord and Figure 1: Impact fee process Manchester, NH have impact fees, as does Burlington, VT. In Maine, Economic Development Committee 6/5/18 Impact Fee Study: Introduction Table 1: Sample of Maine Communities with Impact Fees Transportation Sewer/Water Open Fire/EMS Schools Space/Recreation Brewer ⏺ ⏺ Brunswick ⏺ ⏺ Freeport ⏺ Gorham ⏺ ⏺ Lewiston ⏺ ⏺ Pownal ⏺ ⏺ Saco ⏺ ⏺ ⏺ Scarborough ⏺ ⏺ Windham ⏺ ⏺ York ⏺ ⏺ the legislature laid the foundation for impact fees with the Comprehensive Planning and Land Use Regulation Act of 1987. In the time since, communities across the state have developed and implemented impact fee ordinances (Table 1). 4. HOW ARE IMPACT FEES USED? The uses of impact fees vary widely, depending on state enabling legislation, but in all cases impact fees may only be used to construct, expand, or replace infrastructure required to serve new development. Many communities use impact fees to address growth-related capital costs associated with roads, parks, water, and sewer infrastructure. Fire and police-related impact fees are also fairly common, as are school impact fees. In Maine, impact fees may be used for transportation projects, public safety facilities, sewer and water systems, parks and open space, and school improvements. Impact fees may not be used to pay for operations or maintenance, and may not be used to address existing deficiencies in these systems. 5. HOW MUCH ARE IMPACT FEES? Regardless of where impact fees are used, courts have established that there must be a rational nexus and rough proportionality between the type and scale of development and the fee imposed. Per guidance from the former Maine State Planning Office, “the expansion of the facility and/or service must be necessary and must be caused by the development; the fees charged must be based on the costs of the new facility/service apportioned to the new development; and the fees must benefit those who pay” (Maine State Planning Office, 4). Given these standards, in order for impact fees to be charged, a community must conduct an analysis that identifies growth-related infrastructure costs and apportions those costs to projected development, often by development type, on a square foot, unit, or per trip basis. The resulting fees must be established through a council-adopted ordinance that meets a series of state requirements around the provision of language to address the relationship between fees and growth’s share of infrastructure costs, the treatment of revenues generated from impact fees, timely use of impact fees, and refunds (Title 30-A MRSA §4354). As a product of the great variation in communities that have adopted impact fees, and the great variation in uses of impact fees, the amount of impact fees varies widely from state to state and community to community. A 2015 study of impact fees across the country by Duncan Associates, a national firm specializing in impact fee work, found that state-wide average non-utility (i.e. excluding water and wastewater) impact fees for single-family residential projects ranged from less than $1,000 in Arkansas to almost $25,000 in California (Duncan Associates). In New Hampshire, the study found total residential fees ranging from approximately $3,000 for a 3-br single-family home in Manchester to $5,000 in Concord. In Burlington, the study estimated a $5,000 fee for a 3-br single-family home. The same study found that fees across the country averaged approximately $6,000 per KSF for retail uses, approximately $4,000 per KSF for office uses, and approximately $3,000 per KSF for industrial uses. 2 Economic Development Committee 6/5/18 Impact Fee Study: Introduction 6. HOW DOES THIS RELATE TO PORTLAND’S CURRENT ORDINANCE? The City of Portland’s existing site plan ordinance allows the city to require mitigation “so as to be consistent with City Council approved master plans and facilities plans and with off-premises infrastructure, including but not limited to sewer and stormwater, streets, trails, pedestrian and bicycle network, environmental management or other public facilities” (City of Portland Land Use Code 14-526(c)1.a). Further, the city’s Technical Manual requires that developments that generate more than 100 passenger car equivalents obtain a Traffic Movement Permit (TMP) under the city’s delegated review authority. The issuance of a TMP includes a “summary of findings and recommendations for improvements and other impact mitigation measures” (City of Portland Technical Manual, 2). Under these regulations, the city negotiates mitigation on a case-by-case basis predicated on an analysis of impacts identified through the site plan or subdivision review process. As a product of this process, in some cases, developers make in-kind physical improvements, upgrading a traffic light or installing pedestrian signalheads and ramps at a nearby intersection. In other cases, developers are required to make financial infrastructure contributions proportionate to their impacts. These contributions are held in separate “infrastructure accounts” until they can be drawn down to pay for the improvement identified through the review process. Because this process is conducted on a case-by-case basis, it is neither as systematic or predictable as many would prefer. Further, the system often penalizes the “last one in,” whose development causes an intersection level of service to fail, rather than addressing the incremental impact of all prior developments. An impact fee framework for the City of Portland would establish a more predictable, transparent, and equitable way of assessing the impact of incremental growth on public facilities and services. An impact fee system would also provide the city with some measure of efficiency. 7. IMPACT FEE STUDY SCOPE & SCHEDULE In mid-2017, the City Council adopted Portland's Plan 2030, a new comprehensive plan designed to guide the city’s growth and change over the next ten years. Among the plan’s recommendations is a strong commitment to exploring new ways of funding our critical facilities and services, particularly as they are used by a growing number of residents, workers, and visitors. The plan anticipates future population and employment growth in the city and suggests an exploration of impact fees as a means of assessing capital costs associated with that growth. In August 2017, the Economic Development Committee met to review the impact fee concept (Attachment 1). With the support of the committee, and working with the Departments of Public Works and the Parks, Recreation, and Facilities, Department of Planning & Urban Development staff released an RFP for an Impact Fee Study in October of 2017. The purpose of the study, as written in the RFP, is to develop impact fee systems for multi-modal transportation infrastructure, parks and open space, and wastewater infrastructure. In January 2018, the Planning & Urban Development Department, with the assistance of DPW and the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Facilities, hired TischlerBise, a consulting firm with national experience in impact fee design, to complete the Impact Fee Study. The study’s first step is to compile the data, including population and employment growth projections, that will serve as the foundation for the impact fee analysis. In late April, Tischler developed a final draft memo summarizing demographic and development assumptions for the study (Attachment 2). This memo was based on data provided by the Department of Planning & Urban Development, the Department of Public Works, and the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Facilities, and includes discussion of population, development, employment, traffic, and wastewater usage trends in the city. 3 Economic Development Committee 6/5/18 Impact Fee Study: Introduction Figure 2: Impact Fee Study timeline The next phase of the study will determine capital facility needs and desired service levels for each of the three fee types under consideration. The study will explore various standard methodologies for deriving fees on a per unit, per trip, or per square foot basis and identify the most appropriate methodology for each fee type. The last step of the study will analyze projected funding and cash flow to understand the likely revenue stream and capital expenditures associated with the fees. Draft and final impact fee reports, including potential impact fee schedules, will be prepared. Ultimately, a draft impact fee ordinance, including fee structures based on these reports, will be presented to the Planning Board and City Council. 8. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT Throughout the process, the Impact Fee Study will include a public involvement component designed to engage key stakeholders at major points in the process: A. Stakeholder Group – In mid-May, staff gathered an informal group of stakeholders for an introduction to the Impact Fee Study. This informal stakeholder group is meant to include a range of community members with a stake in the outcome of the study – from developers to neighborhood association representatives to those with a broad interest in economic development in the city. The purpose of the group is to provide feedback on major work products over the course of the study. At the May meeting, Tischler gave an overview of the study and the demographic and land use assumptions that will underpin the analysis in future phases. Subsequent workshops will address capital needs, fee calculation methodologies, and potential fees. B. Planning Board – Also in mid-May, the Planning Board met for the first of several workshops on the Impact Fee Study. This workshop, like the first stakeholder group meeting, focused on providing an overview of the study and presenting early demographic and land use assumptions. Subsequent workshops will address capital needs, fee calculation methodologies, and potential fees. Ultimately, the Planning Board will be responsible for reviewing not only the technical elements of the Impact Fee Study, but also reviewing ordinance language for potential adoption by the City Council. C. Economic Development Committee – Updates will be provided to the EDC at important study milestones. D. City Council – For impact fees to be implemented, the Council would need to adopt ordinance language, including a set of fees as generated by the Impact Fee Study. E. Other - A project website has also been developed (https://www.recodeportland.me/impact-fee-study/). This website will be updated over the course of the Impact Fee Study. Early engagement with both the stakeholder group and with the Planning Board has yielded important feedback, focused primarily on large questions around the city’s existing capital funding mechanisms and the economic implications of impact fees. Questions arising from these early meetings included: A. How would impact fees fit within the city's existing framework for funding capital projects? − How do we fund capital improvements for each of the three impact fee categories now? − What is our financial exposure with a plan-based approach to impact fees (i.e. the way we're thinking about transportation and wastewater projects), and do we have a funding strategy for filling any gaps? − What is our broader strategy for filling capital funding gaps in the city? − What happens if growth slows or we enter a recession? 4 Economic Development Committee 6/5/18 Impact Fee Study: Introduction − Can we quantify how development is/isn't 'paying for itself' with tax revenue right now? (and related, if developers are paying taxes, isn't this double-dipping?) What about the revaluation? B. How would impact fees compare to our current system of collecting mitigation? − Will it really replace the existing system? − Will it cost developers more out-of-pocket? − How much time and money will it cost the city to administer? Do we have the capacity for this? − How will revenues compare to what we're generating in mitigation right now? C. How will this affect the economy, housing choice, etc. down the line? − Who actually bears the cost of impact fees? − Will an impact fee have a negative impact on housing affordability? − Will an impact fee have a negative effect on the pace of growth and the city's economy more broadly? Continued discussion on these topics is expected at the next round of meetings on the study. 9. NEXT STEPS 1. Staff and the consultant to continue work on the needs analysis phase of the study; 2. Staff to schedule a second round of meetings with the Planning Board and stakeholder group to review work products and, ultimately, a draft impact fee ordinance. 10. ATTACHMENTS 1.

Draft Demographic Data and Development Projections for Impact Fee Study, Tischler Bise, 4/23/18 (Not included in attachments for 9/13/18 memo.) 5 DEMOGRAPHIC AND LAND USE ASSUMPTION MEMORANDUM Portland, Maine MEMORANDUM TO: Helen Donaldson, City of Portland, Planning and Urban Development FROM: Carson Bise, AICP, TischlerBise Colin McAweeney, TischlerBise DATE: June 5, 2018 RE: DRAFT Demographic Data and Development Projections for Impact Fee Study As part of our Work Scope, TischlerBise has prepared documentation on demographic data and development projections that will be used in the Impact Fee Study for Transportation, Parks and Open Space, and Wastewater. The data estimates and projections are used in the study’s calculations and to illustrate the possible future pace of service demands on the City’s infrastructure. Furthermore, the memo demonstrates the history of development and base year development levels in Portland. The base year assumptions are used in the impact fee calculations to determine current levels of service. The factors provide assumptions for the final impact fee model and, once finalized, this memo will become part of the final report and/or model documentation. This memo includes discussion and findings on: • Household/ Housing Unit Population • Current population and housing unit estimates • Residential projections • Current employment and nonresidential floor area estimates • Nonresidential projections • Current and projected person vehicle trips • Current and projected wastewater flows Note: calculations throughout this technical memo are based on an analysis conducted using Excel software. Results are discussed in the memo using one-and two-digit places (in most cases), which represent rounded figures. However, the analysis itself uses figures carried to their ultimate decimal places; therefore, the sums and products generated in the analysis may not equal the sum or product if the reader replicates the calculation with the factors shown in the report (due to the rounding of figures shown, not in the analysis). 1 DRAFT DEMOGRAPHIC AND LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS MEMORANDUM Portland, Maine POPULATION AND HOUSING CHARACTERISTICS Impact fees often use per capita standards and persons per housing unit or persons per household to derive proportionate share fee amounts. Housing types have varying household sizes and, consequently, a varying demand on City infrastructure and services. Thus, it is important to differentiate between housing types and size. When persons per housing unit (PPHU) is used in the fee calculations, infrastructure standards are derived using year-round population. In contrast, when persons per household (PPHH) is used in the fee calculations, the fee methodology assumes all housing units will be occupied, thus requiring seasonal or peak population to be used when deriving infrastructure standards. From the Maine Office of Tourism, the Greater Portland and Casco Bay region saw 5.4 million visitors in 2016. As a result, it is not just permanent residents occupying housing units in Portland. In response, City infrastructure and operating service levels are sized to accommodate not just permanent residents, but seasonal residents, seasonal workers, and visitors as well. Thus, TischlerBise recommends that fees for residential development in the City of Portland be imposed according to the persons per household (PPHH). Persons per household (PPHH) will be held constant over the projection period since the study represents a “snapshot approach” of current levels of service and costs. Based on household characteristics, TischlerBise recommends using two housing unit categories for the impact fee study: (1) Single Family and (2) Multifamily. “Single family/Duplex” units include single family detached, single family attached, duplexes, and mobile homes, as defined in the City’s land use code. Multifamily units include structures with more than 2 units. Figure 1 shows the US Census, American Community Survey 2016 5-Year Estimates data for the City of Portland. Single family/Duplex units have a household size of 2.38 persons per unit and multifamily units have a household size of 1.59 persons per unit. Additionally, single family/duplex units have a vacancy rate of 9.8 percent and are 70 percent of the housing stock in Portland. Multifamily units have a vacancy rate of 9.4 percent and are 30 percent of the housing stock in Portland. Figure 1.

Found in Figure 2, the household population and group quarters are considered the City’s permanent population. In 2016 it is estimated that the permanent population was 66,627. Figure 2. Permanent Population, 2016 Type of Structure Persons % Single Family/Duplex Unit 50,010 75.1% Multifamily Unit 14,542 21.8% Group Quarters 2,075 3.1% Total 66,627 100.0% Source: U.S. Cens us Burea u, 2012-2016 Ameri ca n Communi ty Survey, 5-Yea r Es ti ma tes In the recently published Portland’s Plan 2030, several population growth scenarios, modeled by the Greater Portland Council of Governments (GPCOG), are played out. The comprehensive plan shows that a medium-level growth scenario would result in a 2030 population of 71,374. Using this projection for the impact fee study, by 2030 the City of Portland is forecasted to have a permanent population of 71,374. To estimate the City’s population in the interim years, a straight-line approach is used. Figure 3 illustrates the growth in permanent population. In the base year, 2018, there is estimated to be 67,305 permanent residents in Portland. Figure 3.

It is assumed that City infrastructure and services are sized to serve a peak population not just the permanent population. In this case, two additional populations need to be calculated: seasonal and visitor. The seasonal population includes residents who have second homes in Portland and the seasonal labor influx during peak tourism months. The visitor population includes overnight and day visitors. 3 DRAFT DEMOGRAPHIC AND LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS MEMORANDUM Portland, Maine To calculate the seasonal population, the study assumes full occupancy of the housing units in the city. From the US Census data, in 2016, there were 2,286 vacant single family/duplex homes and 949 vacant multifamily homes. The seasonal population is calculated by multiplying the units by the corresponding the persons per household factor (PPHH). In 2016, there was a seasonal population of 6,950. Figure 4.

In 2016, there were 41.2 million visitors to Maine. The majority of the visitors came in the summer, resulting in the average daily number of visitors in the summer being 185 percent of the annual average. Figure 5.

Results of the MOT’s visitor survey indicate that the Portland’s Waterfront was the top attraction for 33 percent of overnight visitors and for 30 percent of day visitors. The study will use a conservative method and use these percentages to allocate the regional visitor total to the City of Portland. In Figure 6, the City of Portland’s daily peak visitor population is calculated. The estimated total of overnight visitors to Portland is 745,800. The estimated total of day visitors to Portland is 930,000. As a result, the total annual visitors to the City of Portland is 1,675,800, or an average of 4,591 per day. Found above, during the summer statewide, the visitor population spikes to 185 percent of the annual average. This factor is applied to the City’s average to calculate the daily peak season visitor total. As a result, in 2016, it is estimated that the City of Portland’s daily peak season visitor population was 8,473. 4 DRAFT DEMOGRAPHIC AND LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS MEMORANDUM Portland, Maine Figure 6.

From 2016 to 2018 there is a 1.02 percent increase in permanent population in Portland; this is applied to the visitor population to calculate the base year total. It is assumed that during the peak seasonal period the City’s seasonal population (seasonal residents and workers) occupies the vacant housing units. As a result, the seasonal population is calculated based on housing growth, described in the next section of the report. In 2018, it is estimated that the peak population for the City of Portland is 83,250. Figure 7.

Over the past 5 years there has been an increase of 1,435 housing units in Portland and, on average, there have been 33 single family/duplex and 254 multifamily housing units constructed annually. It is assumed this trend will continue and the averages are used to project housing development in the City of Portland. Figure 8.

In total, 56 percent of the housing in the City of Portland is single family/duplex and 44 percent multifamily. Consistent with the City’s land use code, single family units include single family detached, single family attached, duplexes, and mobile homes. Multifamily units include structures with 3 or more units. Figure 9.

The seasonal population is assumed to grow with housing development. The vacancy rates found in Figure 1 are assumed to hold through the projection period and the seasonal population is found by combining the estimated vacant units with the corresponding PPHH factor. Lastly, to project the daily peak visitor population growth, the annual percent increase in permanent population is applied. Overall, there is a peak population increase of 4,279. Of the total population in 2028, 81 percent is permanent, 9 percent is seasonal, and 10 percent is visitor population. To project the housing unit growth in Portland, the five-year annual average of building permits is used (see Figure 8). Over the ten-year projection period, the housing stock in the city is estimated to increase by 2,870 units (88 percent multifamily units). Figure 10.

To estimate the current employment in the City of Portland, employment projections from Portland Area Comprehensive Transportation System (PACTS) are used. Based on employment projections at the Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) level, PACTS forecast an employment increase of 27.5 percent from 2014 to 2040. The annual percent increase of the PACTS projection is used to calculate the employment growth in Figure 13.

In general, an impact fee study calculates future developments’ impact on the City’s transportation infrastructure. In suburban, greenfield communities that concentrate on roadway expansion to accommodate new vehicles, a development’s impact is best estimated by calculating the new vehicle trips or vehicle miles traveled (VMT) generated by the development. However, based on the urban environment and residents’ travel behaviors, a multimodal approach is necessary for the City of Portland. This is also consistent with the capital improvements identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan. As such, the multimodal approach will calculate the daily person trips generated by the varying development types in the study. To encompass the varying modes of travel used in Portland, the methodology includes persons per vehicle trip, transit trip, and non-motorized trips. Person Trip Methodology According to the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), there are several elements necessary to calculate person trips. The following equation is provided in the ITE’s Trip Generation Handbook (2017): Person trips = [(vehicle occupancy) x (vehicle trips)] + transit trips + walk trips + bike trips To create a more streamlined approach, this study uses “non-motorized trips” as the sum of walk trip and bike trips. The Trip Generation Handbook outlines the general approach to calculating person trips (further detail of methodology used is described in following sections): 1. Estimate vehicle trips generated by development type. a. This study uses the vehicle trip rates found in ITE’s Trip Generation Manual (2017). 10 DRAFT DEMOGRAPHIC AND LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS MEMORANDUM Portland, Maine 2. Determine mode share and vehicle occupancy. a. Trip survey data from the National Household Transportation Survey (2017) is used to calculate needed factors. 3. Convert vehicle trips to person trips. a. This conversion calculates the total person trips by combining the vehicle trip mode share and vehicle occupancy. 4. Calculate the estimated person trips by mode. a. The mode share split is applied to the total person trip rate to calculate the specific person trip rate for vehicle, transit, and non-motorized trips per land use. Residential Vehicle Trips A customized vehicle trip rate is calculated for the single family and multifamily units in the City of Portland. In Figure 18, the most recent data from the American Community Survey is inputted into equations provided by the ITE to calculate the vehicle trip ends per housing unit factor. A single family/duplex unit is estimated to generate 7.6 trip ends on an average weekday and a multifamily unit is estimated to generate 3.6 trip ends on an average weekday. Figure 17.

NHTS has been conducting stratified, random surveys for nearly 50 years with the aim to understand the modes and purposes of travel in the US. For this study, the most recent survey, 2017, is refined to create a database of survey responses that is both from similar cities to Portland and statistically significant. Initially, the national database of responses is refined by location and population, the results are limited to New England metropolitan statistical areas (ME, NH, VT, CT, MA, RI) with less than 1 million residents. The City of Portland is within the Portland-South Portland-Biddeford, Maine metropolitan statistical area that had a population of 523,874 in 2016 (US Census American Community Survey, 2016). The database is further filtered to only include responses from urban areas and urban clusters. Lastly, only responses for trips on weekdays are included. As a result, there are 2,656 NHTS responses in the database that are used to approximate the mode splits and vehicle occupancy. 12 DRAFT DEMOGRAPHIC AND LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS MEMORANDUM Portland, Maine Data from NHTS indicates the purpose of a trip which allows for the mode share and vehicle occupancy to be calculated for residential and nonresidential land uses separately. It is assumed that trips for residential and nonresidential purposes have different characteristics, so by calculating separately the analysis results in more accurate trip factors. There are 1,447 survey responses that are attributed to residential and 1,209 responses attributed to nonresidential land uses. Both databases are well within a 95 percent confidence level with a confidence interval (margin of error) of less than 3. 1 The transportation mode split for residential purpose trips is listed in Figure 20. Of the 1,447 total trips, 86 percent are by vehicle, 1 percent transit, and 13 percent non-motorized. Additionally, during the vehicle trips there were 1,877 passengers, resulting in an average vehicle occupancy of 1.51 passengers per vehicle trip. Figure 19.

The following formula to calculate vehicle trip ends is provided in the ITE’s Trip Generation Handbook (2017): Vehicle trip ends = [(person trip ends x (vehicle mode share)]/(vehicle occupancy) This is rearranged to calculate total person trips: Person trip ends = [(vehicle trip ends) x (vehicle occupancy)]/(vehicle mode share) By inputting the vehicle trip rate, vehicle occupancy, and vehicle mode share factors found in earlier sections, the daily person trip rate for each land use is found. For example, the daily vehicle trip rate for a single family/duplex housing unit is 7.60 (Figure 18), the vehicle occupancy is 1.51, and the vehicle mode share is 86 percent (Figure 20). By inputting these factors into the formula, a daily person trip end rate of 13.34 is calculated ([7.60 vehicle trips x 1.51 occupancy rate] / [86% vehicle mode share] = 13.34). Figure 22 lists the calculated daily person trip end rate for each land use. Figure 21.

As a result, so to not double count trips, a standard 50 percent adjustment is applied to trip ends to calculate a person trip. For example, the out- bound trip from a person’s home to work is attributed to the housing unit and the trip from work back home is attributed to the employer. However, an additional adjustment is necessary to capture residents’ work bound trips that are outside of the City. The trip adjustment factor includes two components. According to the NHTS (2009), home- based work trips are typically 31 percent of out-bound trips (which are 50 percent of all trip ends). Also, utilizing the most recent data from the Census Bureau's web application "OnTheMap”, 49 percent of the 14 DRAFT DEMOGRAPHIC AND LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS MEMORANDUM Portland, Maine City of Portland's workers travel outside the city for work. In combination, these factors account for 8 percent of additional production trips (0.50 x .31 x 0.49 = 0.08). Shown in, the total adjustment factor for residential housing units includes attraction trips (50 percent of trip ends) plus the journey-to-work commuting adjustment (8 percent of production trips) for a total of 58 percent. Figure 22. Trip Adjustment Factor for Commuters out of the City Employed Portland Residents (2015) 35,405 Portland Residents Working in the City (2015) 17,958 Portland Residents Commuting Outside of the City for Work 17,447 Percent Commuting out of the City 49% Additional Production Trips 8% Standard Trip Adjustment Factor 50% Residential Trip Adjustment Factor 58% Source: U.S. Cens us , OnTheMa p Appl i ca ti on, 2015 To calculate nonresidential trips, the standard 50 percent adjustment is applied to office, industrial, and institutional. A lower trip adjustment factor is used for retail uses because this type of development attracts person trips while they pass-by. Pass-by trips do not generate further traffic as it is only a stop on a trip for ultimately a different purpose. For example, when someone stops at a convenience store on their way home from work, the convenience store is not their primary destination. Person Trips by Mode In Figure 24, the trip adjustment factor and mode share are applied to the person trip end rate of each land use to calculate the person trips. For example, for single family/duplex housing units the trip adjustment factor is 58 percent and the vehicle mode share is 86 percent, resulting in a daily person trip rate of 6.66 for the vehicle mode (13.34 person trip ends x 0.58 trip adjustment factor x 0.86 vehicle mode share = 6.66 person trips).

Found in Figure 25, in the base year, residential land uses generate 223,734 person trips (30 percent) and nonresidential land uses generate 511,437 person trips (70 percent) in the City of Portland. Through 2028, there will be an increase of 47,721 daily person trips in Portland with retail, multifamily, and office development being the three largest contributors to the increase. In the base year, 83 percent of the person trips are by vehicle, 2 percent is by transit, and 15 percent is by non-motorized modes. The majority of the person trip increase over the 10-year projection period is from vehicles as well. Figure 24.

Within the database, residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional wastewater usage is calculated. Additionally, with account data, the wastewater usage of an Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) is calculated as well. The ERU is the estimate of the daily average wastewater usage from a household with a water meter that is 5/8 inches. In the impact fee calculation, a capacity ratio factor is applied when calculating the wastewater usage and resulting impact fee for developments with larger meters. Base Year Estimates Shown in Figure 26, on average there is a total of 5.7 million gallons per day of wastewater flowing through the City’s sewer system from these four development types. The majority of the wastewater flows from residential development, but commercial development creates a significant demand as well. Figure 25. City of Portland Daily Wastewater Usage, 2018 Base Year Development Type (gals/day) % Residential 2,933,364 52% Commercial 1,998,656 35% Industrial 542,244 10% Institutional 187,205 3% Total 5,661,470 100% Source: Ci ty of Portl a nd Publ i c Works Depa rtment Equivalent Residential Unit The wastewater component of the impact fee study will use the wastewater flow calculated for residential units that have a water meter of 5/8 inches to represent the Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU). To calculate the ERU, the wastewater account database is filtered by active residential accounts that use the City’s sewer system. Additionally, the database is further limited by only year-round accounts. These accounts are occupied households that reside in Portland permanently. Year-round accounts are approximated by accounts that have activity every month. Illustrated in Figure 27, there is an average of 61 hundred cubic feet (HCF) of wastewater per year from a year-round active residential account flowing into the City’s sewer system. That equates to an average of 126 gallons per day, rounded. 17 DRAFT DEMOGRAPHIC AND LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS MEMORANDUM Portland, Maine Figure 26.

As a result, the wastewater from residential accounts will increase at the same rate as the projected housing units and wastewater from nonresidential accounts will increase at the same rate as the projected growth in floor area for the respective industry. Over the next ten years, a total increase of 500,000 gallons per day is projected. Residential and commercial land uses account for the majority of the projected increase. Figure 27.

Any new building or addition to existing buildings which results in net new residential dwelling units, non-residential building square footage, or water/wastewater meters, and 2. Any change of use which results in a net increase in impact fee per Section 5F. 4.

Calculation of Impact Fee Impact fees shall be calculated as follows: A. Impact fees shall be calculated based on the impact fee schedule in effect at the time of submittal of a complete application for a building permit. B. Determination of Use: The determination of the applicable land use category in the impact fee schedule shall be made by the [Department of Permitting and Inspections] with reference to the City of Portland’s most recent Impact Fee Study. If the proposed development is of a type not listed in the impact fee schedule, then the impact fees applicable to the most nearly comparable type of land use listed in the impact fee schedule shall be used. C. Mixed-Use Development: In the event there is more than one principal use within a building, impact fees will be calculated separately for each principal use. D. Redevelopment: In calculating the impact fee for new development that involves the full or partial demolition of a building housing an existing, legally established use or uses, such new development shall be credited with an amount equal to the fee that would have been charged to the use or uses which occupied the structure at the time of demolition permit. If the impact fee calculation for the post- development condition is greater than the credit, the applicant shall pay the difference. If the impact fee calculation for the post-development condition is less than the credit, then the applicant shall not be required to pay an impact fee. The City shall not grant credits for demolitions not associated with new development or demolitions for which a permit was issued more than 12 months prior to the complete application for a building permit. E. Building Additions: In calculating the impact fee for building additions, each developed property shall be credited with an amount equal to the fee that would have been charged to the existing use at the time of the addition of floor area. If the impact fee calculation for the post-development condition is greater than the credit, the applicant shall pay the difference. If the impact fee calculation for the post- development condition is less than the credit, then the applicant shall not be required to pay an impact fee. F. Changes of Use: In calculating the impact fee for changes of use, each developed property shall be credited with an amount equal to the fee that would have been charged to the existing use at the time of application for building permit. If the impact fee calculation for the proposed use is greater than the credit, the applicant shall pay the difference. If the impact fee calculation for the proposed use is less than the credit, then the applicant shall not be required to pay an impact fee. The City shall not grant credits for uses which have been discontinued for a period of 12 months or more prior to the complete application for a building permit. 2 6. Annual Adjustment of Impact Fee To account for inflation, there shall be an automatic annual increase in the impact fee schedule reflected in this ordinance every January 1 based on the change in the construction cost index as published by Engineering News Record. The fee adjustment shall be calculated by dividing the index amount published on January 1 of the current year by the index amount published on January 1, 2018 [XXXX] and multiplying the resulting ratio by each fee amount. Adjusted fees shall be made available for public reference. 7. Modification of Impact Fees The Planning Board may by formal vote waive the payment of a required impact fee, in whole or in part, in the following instances: A. Any site plan, subdivision, or building permit applicant may formally request a credit against impact fees otherwise due, up to but not exceeding the full obligation of impact fees to be paid pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, in the following instances: a. The developer or property owner who would otherwise be responsible for the payment of the impact fee voluntarily agrees to make infrastructure improvements for which the impact fee would be collected or an equivalent improvement approved by the Planning Board, or b. The developer or property owner is required, as part of a development approval by the City or a state or federal agency, to make or to pay for infrastructure improvements for which the impact fee would be collected or an equivalent improvement approved by the Planning Board. Credit amounts shall be determined based on plans, details, and cost estimates for the proposed infrastructure improvements for which the credit is requested. Such plans, details, and cost estimates shall be prepared by a licensed professional engineer and submitted at the time of site plan or building permit application. On-site improvements required under subdivision or site plan regulations shall not be considered eligible under this section. B. Any site plan, subdivision, or building permit applicant may formally request a modification of impact fees, up to but not exceeding the full obligation of impact fees to be paid pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, where documentation is provided to demonstrate that a proposed use will impose no or substantially-reduced demands on capital facilities for which impact fees have been adopted. Such documentation shall be prepared by a licensed professional engineer and include an analysis of the demand for capital facilities generated by the proposed use based on industry standards and the most recent Impact Fee Study. Documentation shall be submitted at the time of site plan or building permit application. 8. Affordable Housing Waiver Any residential development including low-income or workforce housing units and qualifying as an eligible project under Division 30 shall be eligible for a reduction of fees in accordance with Section 14-486. 9. Collection of Impact Fee The City of Portland shall not issue any certificate of occupancy required under the Land Use Code until the applicant has paid any impact fees required by this ordinance. 10. Segregation of Impact Fees from General Revenues Impact fees collected pursuant to this ordinance shall be maintained in separate, non-lapsing impact fee accounts for each of the facilities for which impact fees are assessed, and shall be segregated from the City’s general revenues. These accounts shall be dedicated for funding of the improvements for which the fee is collected, as determined through the City’s most recent Impact Fee Study. Funds from these accounts shall be 3 distributed to City departments, upon authorization by the City’s Finance Department, solely for the purpose of capital projects identified in the City of Portland’s most recent Impact Fee Study. 11. Use of Impact Fees Impact fees collected by the City pursuant to this ordinance may be used only for financing facility improvements which the City Council, through the City of Portland’s most recent Impact Fee Study, has determined are made necessary by new development. The City Council has determined that fees imposed by schedules in this ordinance are reasonably related to the demands created by new development. Impact fees collected pursuant to this ordinance shall be used exclusively for capital improvements, and the City of Portland shall expend funds collected from impact fees solely for the purposes for which they were collected. 12. Refund of Unused Impact Fees Impact fees collected pursuant to this ordinance shall be used by the City according to the timeline specified in the City of Portland’s most recent Impact Fee Study for the completion of specific capital improvements, but in no event later than ten years after the date upon which the impact fee was collected. Any impact fees which are not so used and any impact fees collected which exceed the City’s actual costs of implementing the infrastructure improvements for which such fees were collected shall be refunded. Refunds shall be paid to the owner of record of the property for which the impact fee was collected, determined as of the date the refund is made. 13. Review and Revision The impact fees established in this ordinance are based upon the best estimates of the costs of the construction of the facilities for which the fees are collected as determined through the City’s most recent Impact Fee Study. The Council may, by amendments to this ordinance, change the amounts of the impact fees from time to time as warranted by new information or changed circumstances. 4 MEMORANDUM DISTRIBUTE TO: ​Members of the Economic Development Committee FROM: ​Brendan T. O’Connell - Finance Director Chris Huff - Assessor DATE: ​August 12, 2018 SUBJECT: Impact Fee - Questions and Answers from Finance Director & Assessor Several questions have been passed along from the Planning and Urban Development Department on behalf of residents and businesses in regards to impact fees, the existing tax levy and City budget, property valuation growth and the upcoming revaluation, and building permit fees and stormwater service charges. This memo is intended to summarize responses to many of the frequently asked questions (“FAQ”). Frequently Asked Impact Fee Questions for Finance and Assessors 1. I read the FY19 budget includes $100M of new estimated valuation and I know property values continue to grow. Why are my impact fees necessary during a time when there is so much new value in the City of Portland? Isn’t the existing growth enough to cover all City needs? 2. Will the upcoming revaluation help alleviate budget pressure and provide more tax dollars for City needs? 3. Building permit fees were increased recently. Wasn’t this increase intended to fund some of the same things impact fees are intended to fund (i.e. growth related infrastructure)? 4. What about the Stormwater Service Charge? Was that created in response to growth-related infrastructure needs? 1 Question 1: I read the FY19 budget includes $100M of new estimated valuation and I know property values continue to grow. Why are my impact fees necessary during a time when there is so much new value in the City of Portland? Isn’t the existing growth enough to cover all City needs? Property valuation has grown by $100 million in the current year due to significant new projects breaking ground and continues our upward trajectory in overall valuation. This $100 million of new property valuation creates an additional approximately $1,133,000 in tax revenue for municipal use. While this may seem like a significant amount, it represents only a 0.128% overall increase to our FY18 valuation of approximately $7.8 billion, and can only fund a fraction of the cost increases and budget challenges we face in FY19, many of which are outside of City control. These include the increases in Cumberland County tax ($381k), increases in pension obligation bond debt service ($872k and increasing by around $1M annually through 2026), contractually obligated union compensation increases (approximately $3.2M) and health insurance cost increases ($2M). As you can see, the increase in valuation can only fund a fraction of the cost increases that are outside of City control. Question 2: Will the upcoming revaluation help alleviate budget pressure and provide more tax dollars for the City needs? Staff Response: No – the revaluation has no impact on total funds collected for the budget. Each year the City Manager will recommend a budget, calling for the required amount of tax dollars to be levied on property owners. ​The revaluation will have no impact on the dollar amount levied – the total amount of tax dollars required for City / School operations will be the same both before and after the revaluation​. The revaluation will only impact how the dollars levied are split between City taxpayers. In general about 1/3 of the residents will pay more after the revaluation, 1/3 of the residents will pay the same amount, and 1/3 of the residents will pay less, but in total the amount of tax dollars collected will remain the same. When property values rise overall as a result of the revaluation, the mil rate will see a corresponding drop. For example, if total City property value increased 25% during the revaluation from $8B to $10B as a result of the revaluation (i.e. adjusting property values to their just values) the mil rate would then see a corresponding 25% percentage decrease. EXAMPLE: Pre-City Revaluation: Total City Valuation: $8,000,000,000 Mil Rate: $20.00 Total Tax Levy Needed for City/School Operations: $160,000,000 ($8,000,000,000 / 1000 * $20.00) Post-City Revaluation: Total City Valuation: $10,000,000,000 Mil Rate: $16.00 (drops because we still only need a tax levy of $160,000,000) Total Tax Levy Needed for City/School Operations: $160,000,000 ($10,000,000,000 / 1000 * $16.00) 2 Question 3: Building permit fees were increased recently. Wasn’t this increase intended to fund some of the same things impact fees are intended to fund (i.e. growth related infrastructure)? Staff Response: In 2017 a separate Permitting & Inspections Department was created. The new Department was created in direct response to the 2016 City Council goal to create a more efficient permitting process, including online functionality. This new Department including significant levels new staff and a new Department Head, a new software system (EnerGov) and new policies and procedures, was funded by an increase in Building Permit fees. No part of the previous increase in building permit fees was intended to fund growth-related infrastructure. Additionally, there are no excess building permit revenues available to address growth-related infrastructure. Question 4: What about the ​Stormwater Service Charge​? Was that created in response to growth-related infrastructure needs? Staff Response: No. The Stormwater Service Charge was created to fund and implement projects related to the Department of Environmental Protection (“DEP”) mandate for combined sewer overflow requirements. Instituting a stormwater charge more fairly and equitably distributes costs among the users of the sewer and stormwater systems rather than putting the burden entirely on sewer users. Stormwater service charges will raise approximately $7M towards the DEP mandate in FY19. The City estimates between $20M and $30M will be spent annually over the next 5-10 years to address the DEP mandate (revenues from both sewer fees and stormwater service charges will support this effort). There will be no excess of either Stormwater Service Charges or Sewer Fees to address growth related infrastructure needs. 3 Economic Development Department Gregory A. Mitchell, Director MEMORANDUM TO: Economic Development Committee FROM: Gregory A. Mitchell, Economic Development Director Mary Davis, Housing and Community Development Division Director DATE: September 10, 2018 SUBJECT: Request to Assign the McAuley Place Tax Increment Financing District Credit Enhancement Agreement I. ONE SENTENCE SUMMARY The request is to consent to the assignment of a portion of the McAuley Place Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District Credit Enhancement Agreement (CEA) from Sea Coast at Baxter Woods Associates, LLC to DC Baxter Woods LLC, DC Baxter Woods II LLC, and DC Baxter Woods III LLC due to changes in ownership associated with property located in the TIF District. II. AGENDA DESCRIPTION Changes in corporate entities are taking place to support the redevelopment of the Motherhouse Project and surrounding property located in the McAuley Place TIF District. This necessitates City Council approval to Assign the McAuley Place TIF CEA which is permitted under the existing City Council approved CEA per Section 7.3. III. BACKGROUND The City Council approved the McAuley Place TIF District on May 16, 2009. The terms of this TIF District include returning sixty (60) percent of the new property taxes to the Motherhouse Project developer for a period of thirty (30) years and the remaining forty (40) percent will be placed in the City’s General Fund. It is noted that this property was originally tax exempt because it was owned by St. Joseph Convent and Hospital. Also, it is noted that the TIF District approval date started the TIF District term in 2009, but it was not activated at that time because the planned redevelopment project investment did not occur at that time. The City Council, on August 3, 2015 approved the investment of $426,262 in HOME funding to support the redevelopment of the Motherhouse Project to create senior affordable housing. 1 of 23 Motherhouse Project Overview (2016 Low Income Housing Tax Credit Senior Project)  88 total (66 with affordable restrictions and 22 market rate) units located in the Motherhouse; and,  21 market rate residential units located between the Motherhouse and Baxter Woods.  TIF funds dedicated to the operation of the Motherhouse Project were an essential leverage source to secure the Maine State Housing Authority Low Income Housing Tax Credit financing. TIF District Gross Property Tax Estimates Capture Rates Years 60% Project 40% City 1-30 $4.156 Million $2.770 Million Non TIF District Property Tax Estimates It is noted that 140 residential units are planned to be located on the remainder of the former McAuley Campus which are located outside the TIF District. The estimated total taxable value for this portion of the project when complete is $37,100,000 with property taxes at a 22.48 mil rate equals $834,008 per year on previously tax exempt property. These units and their corresponding tax revenues were not a part of the 2009 Development Plan. IV. INTENDED RESULT OR COUNCIL GOAL ADDRESSED City Council approval of the Assignment of the McAuley Place TIF District CEA. V. FINANCIAL IMPACT There is no financial impact related to City Council approval to assign the McAuley Place TIF District CEA. VI. STAFF ANALYSIS AND BACKGROUND THAT WILL NOT APPEAR IN THE AGENDA DESCRIPTION Staff reviewed the request and determined that the requested McAuley Place TIF District CEA assignment is allowed under the City Council approved CEA. Consenting to the assignment will affirm the investment of $426,262 in HOME funding to the project which was approved by the City Council at its August 3, 2015 meeting (Council Order 35-15/16). VII. RECOMMENDATION The Economic Development Committee is asked at their September 18, 2018 meeting to vote, in the form of a recommendation to the City Council, approval of the requested TIF CEA Assignment. 2 of 23 VIII.

D. The extension of the Loan by the Lender is based in part upon the agreement of City to enter into this Agreement, expressly consenting to the Collateral Assignment of the Credit Enhancement Agreement to Lender and providing various assurances to Lender as set forth herein. NOW THEREFORE for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 5 of 23 1. Status of TIF Agreement. City and Borrower hereby represent to Lender that the TIF Agreement has been duly executed, is presently in full force and effect, that the TIF Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligations of the City and, to the City's knowledge, Borrower, that the Borrower is entitled to payment of amounts payable to the owner of the Property in accordance with the terms of the TIF Agreement, and that the TIF Agreement has not been subsequently modified or amended, except for the partial Assignment thereof to Borrower and the partial assignment of the TIF Agreement to Motherhouse LP with respect to the real estate owned by Motherhouse Associates LP, which assignments have been approved by the City.

To the best of City's knowledge, to date the Borrower has complied with and fulfilled its obligations to the City under the TIF Agreement and no events of default are outstanding. 2. Consent to Assignment. City acknowledges receipt of a copy of and consents to the Borrower's Collateral Assignment ofthe TIF Agreement to Lender, its successors and assigns, as security for Borrower's obligations to Lender, with right of reassignment (the "Assignment"). Upon an Event of Default in Borrower's obligations to Lender, which is not cured within any applicable grace period, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to collect all payments from City arising or accruing under that portion of the TIF Agreement then held by Lender as Collateral as they become due, and hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the City to pay all amounts thereafter arising or accruing under the TIF Agreement and assigned to Lender to Lender and to continue to do so until otherwise directly notified by Lender. Borrower further agrees that the City shall have the right to conclusively rely upon such demand by Lender without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether any Event of Default exists and notwithstanding any assertion, demand or claim of Borrower to the contrary, and that Borrower shall have no right or claim against the City for any amounts paid by the City to Lender following receipt of such demand by Lender. Upon written certification and demand from Lender based on the foregoing, the City agrees to pay and perform the City's obligations under the TIF Agreement to Lender, its successors and assigns, including without limitation, a receiver, a purchaser of the Project as defined in the TIF Agreement at a mortgage foreclosure/secured party's sale, or assignee pursuant to an assignment entered into by Borrower with the express written consent of Lender (all collectively the "Assignee"), which obligations of the City shall include the payments due from the Company TIF Account established under the TIF Agreement, provided that the preconditions to the City's obligations to make payments established under the TIF Agreement have been satisfied. Such payment shall be forwarded to Lender, its successors and assigns, or Lender's designee even if the Lender's right to receive the payment is disputed by Borrower. Any sale or transfer of Assignee's interest in the TIF Agreement, by mortgage foreclosure/secured party's sale, assignment or otherwise, shall release such Assignee from any and all liability under the TIF Agreement provided however, that the subsequent Assignee shall assume and agree to perform Borrower's obligations under the TIF Agreement arising thereafter. 2 6 of 23 The Lender and the City acknowledge that the Lender has previously consented to a transfer of a portion of the rights under the TIF Agreement to Motherhouse Associates LP and that Lender has released its security interest in the portion of the TIF Agreement assigned to Motherhouse Associates LP. The amounts payable to Lender or any Assignee under the TIF Agreement following an Event of Default by Borrower to Lender shall be only those amounts related to the portion of the TIF Agreement that Lender now holds as Collateral for the Loan. 3. Modifications, etc. City agrees not to alter, modify, terminate or change the terns of the TIF Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. 4. Defaults under the TIF Agreement. City agrees that so long as the Assignment or any extension or renewal thereof remains outstanding, the following provisions shall apply: (a) City shall serve upon Lender copies of any written notice of any default given to Borrower under the TIF Agreement, either as provided in the TIF Agreement for a notice of default to Borrower, or in any event, not less than thirty (30)days prior to any termination ofthe TIF Agreement for failure to perform Borrower's obligations thereunder, provided that if the City does not serve Lender with such copies, then the Lender's cure period shall be automatically extended by one day for each day in which the notice was not served on Lender. (b) In case Borrower shall be in default under the TIF Agreement, beyond any applicable grace or cure period, Lender or any Assignee shall have the right to remedy such default or cause the same to be remedied, and City shall accept such performance by or at the instance of Lender or Assignee as if the same had been made by Borrower. (c) No event of default under the TIF Agreement shall be grounds for termination as against Lender if steps shall, in good faith, have been commenced within the time permitted therefor to rectify the same and shall be prosecuted to completion with diligence and continuity, including without limitation, time (i) to obtain possession of the Property (including possession by a receiver), or (ii) to institute, prosecute and complete foreclosure proceedings or otherwise acquire Borrower's interest in the Property with diligence. Provided, however, that: (i) Lender or an Assignee shall not be obligated to continue such possession or to continue such foreclosure proceedings after such defaults shall have been cured;(ii) nothing herein contained shall preclude the City, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, from exercising any rights or remedies under the TIF Agreement with respect to any other default by Borrower during the pendency of such proceedings other than termination of the TIF Agreement; and (iii) Lender or such Assignee shall agree with City in writing to comply during the period of such forbearance with such of the terms, conditions and covenants of the TIF Agreement as are reasonably susceptible of being complied with by Lender. Any default by Borrower not reasonably susceptible of being cured by Lender on account of insolvency or voluntary and involuntary insolvency or reorganization proceedings, receivership, or an assignment for the benefit of creditors or the like shall be deemed to have been waived by City upon completion of such 3 7 of 23 foreclosure proceedings or upon such acquisition of Borrower's interest in the TIF Agreement, except that any of such events of default which are reasonably susceptible of being cured after such completion and acquisition shall then be cured with reasonable diligence. 5. Notices. Any notice or other communication which is required under the TIF Agreement shall be in writing and shall be served by certified mail, addressed as set forth in this Agreement or at such other address as shall be designated by notice in writing given by certified mail. 6.

Mitchell, Director MEMORANDUM TO: Economic Development Committee FROM: Greg Mitchell Brendan O’Connell DATE: September 11, 2018 SUBJECT: Proposed Amendments to City Bayside Area-wide Tax Increment Financing District I. ONE SENTENCE SUMMARY A public hearing will be held at the September 18, 2018, EDC meeting for a vote, in the form of a recommendation to the City Council, to approve the Proposed Amendments to the Bayside TIF District. II. AGENDA DESCRIPTION Amendments to the Bayside Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District are proposed to maximize utilization of the TIF District revenue by adding more public investment options for use of TIF revenue. It is noted that the City staff proposed amendments do not involve credit enhancement agreements. III. BACKGROUND Bayside (Existing and Proposed Amendments) Geography. 129.18 acres bounded by Franklin Street, Cumberland Avenue, Forest Avenue and I-295. TIF Term. Fiscal Years 2004-2033 Capture Rate. 100% 1 of 30 Overview of TIF District Expenditures FY2016 to Date: Bayside TIF Expenditures From FY2016 thru FY2018 Uses Expenditures Public Infrastructure $541,950 Credit Enhancement Agreements $1,376,957 Debt Service $1,208,616 Total Invested: $3,127,524 Existing and Proposed Amendments to Uses of Revenue. See attached Bayside TIF District Program which shows existing and proposed amendments to allowable uses of TIF District revenue in a strike through and underline format. Adding additional uses of TIF revenue creates the maximum flexibility to use TIF revenue. There are no proposed amendments to the capture rate or geography. IV. INTENDED RESULT AND/OR COUNCIL GOAL ADDRESSED City Council approval of the proposed amendments to the Bayside TIF District to support increased private sector investment and associated job creation. V. FINANCIAL IMPACT TIF District Estimates. See attached spreadsheet for estimated property revenue funds available to the City General Fund and one Credit enhancement Agreement which expires in FY2023. Tax Shelter (Financial Benefits). Probably the most important, but least understood public benefit associated with TIF districts, is the tax shelter or local financial benefits. Municipalities realize “savings” from the tax sheltering effect of TIF Districts. The following direct financial impacts occur when municipal valuation increases: A. State Education Aid is reduced, B. State Municipal Revenue Sharing is reduced, and C. A municipality pays a higher percentage of the County budget. This amount of “savings” is significant and one of the most important benefits of establishing TIF Districts. For Portland, tax shelter savings is conservatively estimated at 30%, meaning that for every new tax dollar, Portland saves 30 cents which would otherwise be lost for property tax value not included in a TIF District. The estimated tax shelter savings for the remainder of the Bayside TIF District term – FY2020 through FY2033 - at a 100% capture rate is just under $13 Million, or a yearly average of $927,000. Net Impact to the General Fund The savings referenced above is a direct benefit to the general fund – both to the City and the School Department via an increase in revenue from the State of Maine for education, 2 of 30 increased revenues for the City from municipal revenue sharing, and decreased expenses for county tax. It is important to note that whenever the TIF capture rate is adjusted upward there will change in how property tax revenue flows between the general fund and the area TIFs. Via careful TIF budgeting, subject to annual budget approval by City Council, certain types of approved expenditures can be moved from the general fund into area TIFs. If the impact of the revenue shift is able to be fully offset the end result is the 30 cent savings on the dollar. A good example is what was done in the FY19 budget. TIF capture rates were adjusted upward by approximately 5% in the Waterfront and Bayside TIF. Although this resulted in slightly less revenue to the general fund, expenses related to Economic Development Department staff, in an amount approximately equal to the revenue shift, were shifted into the TIF. The net result was an increased capture rate in both TIFs, more sheltering savings (approximately 30% in benefits) and no other negative impact on the City or School budgets. It is this type of calculated TIF budgeting which is expected to continue to be utilized moving forward to increase capture rates, maximize sheltering, and ensure only positive impacts to the City and School budgets.

Introduction/Updated 2018 East and West Bayside continue to be gateways to Portland’s peninsula. A lot of changes to East and West Bayside have occurred since the Bayside (West) TIF District was adopted by the City Council on March 17, 2003. Relocation of one scrap yard and the addition of new medical office buildings, new housing for college students, , two new grocery stores, pharmacies, and financial institutions have transformed West Bayside’s industrial heritage to a more compact urban development pattern, which extends the Central Business District to I- 295. Additionally, City Council approval, during 2017 and 2018, of the sale of six Bayside properties formerly occupied by the Public Works Department will continue to support area wide economic revitalization. East Bayside has been experiencing its own transformation with new coffee shops, artist studios, and new housing. Continued attention to the West Bayside TIF District is needed to fulfill the Bayside Vision. History In 1996, the process began when the City of Portland obtained funding from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to undertake a Brownfield’s Pilot Project in Bayside. The City designated a ten-lot, 14-acre parcel between Oxford Street and Marginal Way as the Bayside Brownfield’s Project Area and has since created a $500,000 loan fund for the express purpose of cleaning up the site to clear the way for future development. The study area was subsequently enlarged to incorporate the area from Congress Street to I-295, and from Franklin Arterial to Forest Avenue, which is approximately 129 acres. Since 1996, the City of Portland has been working with a team of consultants on planning for opportunities for the reuse of the Bayside land. An extensive public participation process, which involved hundreds of participants, produced a plan entitled “A New Vision for Bayside”. The Bayside plan identifies the following eleven development principles and five critical actions in order to transform this area into a vital, productive and diverse urban neighborhood: Development Principles  Urban Gateway  Multi-level Parking Structures  Economic and Employment  A Neighborhood Center Opportunities  Recreation and Open Space  A Walkable District  A Social Service Network  A Critical Mass of Dwellings  Environmental Remediation  Transit Oriented Development  Scrap yard Redevelopment 1 6 of 30 PROPOSED BAYSIDE TIF DISTRICT CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS –AMENDMENT 9 Critical Actions  Acquire the Railroad Property  Create Transit Oriented  Redevelop the Scrap yard Parcels Development  Build More Housing  Secure the Future of Portland’s Social Service Network Public participation continues to be an ongoing aspect of the Plan’s implementation. The Bayside Neighborhood Association and the Bayside Community Development Corporation include neighborhood property owners, residents, commercial owners and tenants. Since adopting the Bayside Vision Plan in December 1999 as a part of the Comprehensive Plan, the City has moved forward on several of the identified critical actions. After several years of complex negotiations with Guilford Transportation and the Maine Department of Transportation, the City purchased the Railroad property. Using Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and Economic Development Administration (“EDA”) funding, this 6+ acre parcel made the City a major property owner in the area of Bayside slated primarily for commercial redevelopment. EDA and City Capital Improvement Funds have been used to rebuild the sewer system along Somerset Street, adjacent to the railroad parcel, as well as to extend Chestnut Street from Somerset Street to Marginal Way. These improvements were key infrastructure investments for new development in Bayside. The City continues to be committed to investing in Bayside as funding becomes available, but clearly a variety of financing mechanisms have been and will continue to be needed. With these first actions completed, attention has been focused on the need for structured parking associated with the Federated Midtown Project. At meeting after meeting, then Bayside Development Committee (BDC) members stated unequivocally that the Bayside Plan cannot be implemented to its fullest without structured parking; and that the entire redevelopment plan hinges upon the relocation of the scrap metal recycling facilities. Furthermore, it is clear that the private sector cannot afford to make new investments in Bayside that include the cost of creating structured parking, nor can the market alone bear the cost of relocating the scrap metal recycling facilities. The first such private development project which included constructing garages occurred on property that was sold by the City to two private developers (Capital, LLC and Southern Maine Student Housing, LLC) who planned a then estimated $38,400,000 in new taxable commercial investment. The project consisted of a 72,000 sq. ft. office building, perched upon a 430 space parking garage with ground floor retail, alongside a 405 bed student housing facility with a 130 space parking garage. The cost of constructing the structured parking added more costs to the project than market rents could support, so financing relief was sought through the use of Credit Enhancement Agreements (Exhibit 5) so that the project moved forward with the density sought for 2 7 of 30 PROPOSED BAYSIDE TIF DISTRICT CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS –AMENDMENT 9 Bayside. This entire investment occupies just over 3 acres by reducing the footprint and allowing for vertical expansion. Amendment #7 Approved by MDECD March 28, 2016 The purpose of this Amendment #7 to this TIF application iswas to amend the Development Program to include municipal use of TIF funds for costs of public transportation improvement projects – including traffic signals, costs associated with environmental site assessment and remediation work to support commercial development, costs associated with environmental sea level adaptation planning and public infrastructure to support commercial development, as well as other development principles and critical actions items contained in the Bayside Vision Report I and II The public benefits associated with an amended Bayside TIF District include: - Provide support for Portland’s continued economic development; - Help increase the vibrancy and stability of the Bayside neighborhood; - Create employment opportunities for area residents; - Produce tax shift benefits averaging an estimated savings to the City of $680,307 annually at that time; - Improve the general economy of Portland and the State of Maine; - Improved public transportation infrastructure investment; - Clean up contaminated property to support commercial development; - Planning for environmental sea level adaptation, and public infrastructure to support commercial development. Amendment #8 Proposed toApproved by the Portland City Council July 16, 2018/MDECD Approval Pending Amendment #8 includes a single property in the Expanded Bayside TIF District located at 178 Kennebec Street, Assessor Chart, Block, and Lot Number 034 F001001. The City is in the process of selling this property to a private developer. This developer proposes an elderly affordable housing project on that property with two condominium units. Unit 1 would be ground level commercial space and Unit 2 (air rights above Unit 1) is proposed to be an elderly affordable housing project. The amendments will exclude all floors above the first floor in a multi-story building to be constructed on a parcel of approximately 0.22 acres presently owned by the City of Portland located at 178 Kennebec Street, Portland and to be conveyed to 100 Parris Street, LP or its designee (the “Developer”), together with all rights appurtenant thereto including without limitation in the land comprising said parcel. It is the intention of the Developer to declare this specified area as Unit 2 in the Furman at Bayside Condominium following acquisition of the land from the City of Portland. Such specified area is referred to below as “178 Kennebec Street Unit 2” or “Unit 2”. 3 8 of 30 PROPOSED BAYSIDE TIF DISTRICT CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS –AMENDMENT 9 The amendments will provide that the following specified area will remain: the first floor in a multi-story building to be constructed on a parcel of approximately 0.22 acres presently owned by the City of Portland located at 178 Kennebec Street, Portland and to be conveyed to 100 Parris Street, LP or its designee (the “Developer”), together with all rights appurtenant thereto including without limitation in the land comprising said parcel. It is the intention of the Developer to declare this specified area as Unit 1 in the Furman at Bayside Condominium following acquisition of the land from the City of Portland. II. Amended Development Program A.

Introduction/Updated 2018 East and West Bayside continue to be gateways to Portland’s peninsula. A lot of changes to East and West Bayside have occurred since the Bayside (West) TIF District was adopted by the City Council on March 17, 2003. Relocation of one scrap yard and the addition of new medical office buildings, new housing for college students, , two new grocery stores, pharmacies, and financial institutions have transformed West Bayside’s industrial heritage to a more compact urban development pattern, which extends the Central Business District to I- 295. Additionally, City Council approval, during 2017 and 2018, of the sale of six Bayside properties formerly occupied by the Public Works Department will continue to support area wide economic revitalization. East Bayside has been experiencing its own transformation with new coffee shops, artist studios, and new housing. Continued attention to the West Bayside TIF District is needed to fulfill the Bayside Vision. History In 1996, the process began when the City of Portland obtained funding from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to undertake a Brownfield’s Pilot Project in Bayside. The City designated a ten-lot, 14-acre parcel between Oxford Street and Marginal Way as the Bayside Brownfield’s Project Area and has since created a $500,000 loan fund for the express purpose of cleaning up the site to clear the way for future development. The study area was subsequently enlarged to incorporate the area from Congress Street to I-295, and from Franklin Arterial to Forest Avenue, which is approximately 129 acres. Since 1996, the City of Portland has been working with a team of consultants on planning for opportunities for the reuse of the Bayside land. An extensive public participation process, which involved hundreds of participants, produced a plan entitled “A New Vision for Bayside”. The Bayside plan identifies the following eleven development principles and five critical actions in order to transform this area into a vital, productive and diverse urban neighborhood: Development Principles  Urban Gateway  Multi-level Parking Structures  Economic and Employment  A Neighborhood Center Opportunities  Recreation and Open Space  A Walkable District  A Social Service Network  A Critical Mass of Dwellings  Environmental Remediation  Transit Oriented Development  Scrap yard Redevelopment 1 18 of 30 PROPOSED BAYSIDE TIF DISTRICT CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS –AMENDMENT 9 Critical Actions  Acquire the Railroad Property  Create Transit Oriented  Redevelop the Scrap yard Parcels Development  Build More Housing  Secure the Future of Portland’s Social Service Network Public participation continues to be an ongoing aspect of the Plan’s implementation. The Bayside Neighborhood Association and the Bayside Community Development Corporation include neighborhood property owners, residents, commercial owners and tenants. Since adopting the Bayside Vision Plan in December 1999 as a part of the Comprehensive Plan, the City has moved forward on several of the identified critical actions. After several years of complex negotiations with Guilford Transportation and the Maine Department of Transportation, the City purchased the Railroad property. Using Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and Economic Development Administration (“EDA”) funding, this 6+ acre parcel made the City a major property owner in the area of Bayside slated primarily for commercial redevelopment. EDA and City Capital Improvement Funds have been used to rebuild the sewer system along Somerset Street, adjacent to the railroad parcel, as well as to extend Chestnut Street from Somerset Street to Marginal Way. These improvements were key infrastructure investments for new development in Bayside. The City continues to be committed to investing in Bayside as funding becomes available, but clearly a variety of financing mechanisms have been and will continue to be needed. With these first actions completed, attention has been focused on the need for structured parking associated with the Federated Midtown Project. At meeting after meeting, then Bayside Development Committee (BDC) members stated unequivocally that the Bayside Plan cannot be implemented to its fullest without structured parking; and that the entire redevelopment plan hinges upon the relocation of the scrap metal recycling facilities. Furthermore, it is clear that the private sector cannot afford to make new investments in Bayside that include the cost of creating structured parking, nor can the market alone bear the cost of relocating the scrap metal recycling facilities. The first such private development project which included constructing garages occurred on property that was sold by the City to two private developers (Capital, LLC and Southern Maine Student Housing, LLC) who planned a then estimated $38,400,000 in new taxable commercial investment. The project consisted of a 72,000 sq. ft. office building, perched upon a 430 space parking garage with ground floor retail, alongside a 405 bed student housing facility with a 130 space parking garage. The cost of constructing the structured parking added more costs to the project than market rents could support, so financing relief was sought through the use of Credit Enhancement Agreements (Exhibit 5) so that the project moved forward with the density sought for Bayside. This entire investment occupies just over 3 acres by reducing the footprint and allowing for vertical expansion. 2 19 of 30 PROPOSED BAYSIDE TIF DISTRICT CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS –AMENDMENT 9 Amendment #7 Approved by MDECD March 28, 2016 The purpose of Amendment #7 to this TIF application was to amend the Development Program to include municipal use of TIF funds for costs of public transportation improvement projects – including traffic signals, costs associated with environmental site assessment and remediation work to support commercial development, costs associated with environmental sea level adaptation planning and public infrastructure to support commercial development, as well as other development principles and critical actions items contained in the Bayside Vision Report I and II The public benefits associated with an amended Bayside TIF District include: - Provide support for Portland’s continued economic development; - Help increase the vibrancy and stability of the Bayside neighborhood; - Create employment opportunities for area residents; - Produce tax shift benefits averaging an estimated savings to the City of $680,307 annually at that time; - Improve the general economy of Portland and the State of Maine; - Improved public transportation infrastructure investment; - Clean up contaminated property to support commercial development; - Planning for environmental sea level adaptation, and public infrastructure to support commercial development. Amendment #8 Approved by the Portland City Council July 16, 2018/MDECD Approval Pending Amendment #8 includes a single property in the Expanded Bayside TIF District located at 178 Kennebec Street, Assessor Chart, Block, and Lot Number 034 F001001. The City is in the process of selling this property to a private developer. This developer proposes an elderly affordable housing project on that property with two condominium units. Unit 1 would be ground level commercial space and Unit 2 (air rights above Unit 1) is proposed to be an elderly affordable housing project. The amendments will exclude all floors above the first floor in a multi-story building to be constructed on a parcel of approximately 0.22 acres presently owned by the City of Portland located at 178 Kennebec Street, Portland and to be conveyed to 100 Parris Street, LP or its designee (the “Developer”), together with all rights appurtenant thereto including without limitation in the land comprising said parcel. It is the intention of the Developer to declare this specified area as Unit 2 in the Furman at Bayside Condominium following acquisition of the land from the City of Portland. Such specified area is referred to below as “178 Kennebec Street Unit 2” or “Unit 2”. The amendments will provide that the following specified area will remain: the first floor in a multi-story building to be constructed on a parcel of approximately 0.22 acres presently owned by the City of Portland located at 178 Kennebec Street, Portland and to 3 20 of 30 PROPOSED BAYSIDE TIF DISTRICT CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS –AMENDMENT 9 be conveyed to 100 Parris Street, LP or its designee (the “Developer”), together with all rights appurtenant thereto including without limitation in the land comprising said parcel.

The amendments will exclude all floors above the first floor in a multi-story building to be constructed on a parcel of approximately 0.22 acres presently owned by the City of Portland located at 178 Kennebec Street, Portland and to be conveyed to 100 Parris Street, LP or its designee (the “Developer”), together with all rights appurtenant thereto including without limitation in the land comprising said parcel. It is the intention of the Developer to declare this specified area as Unit 2 in the Furman at Bayside Condominium following acquisition of the land from the City of Portland. Such specified area is referred to below as “178 Kennebec Street Unit 2” or “Unit 2”.

The attached Revised Exhibit 1, as revised and updated for Amendment 9, details the actual numbers from its inception – Tax Year 2003/City Fiscal Year 2003/2004 – through Tax Year April 1, 2018/City Fiscal Year 2018/2019; and estimates beginning Tax Year April 1, 2019/City Fiscal Year 2019/2020 through the life of District ending with Tax Year April 1, 2032/City Fiscal Year 2032/2033. The projections of retained revenues is based upon the anticipated assessed value increases within the District for the remainder of the District term. Revised Exhibit 1 is a projection based upon best available information and is included for demonstration purposes only. No assurances are provided as to the results reflected therein. B. Development Program Account This Development Program requires establishment of a Development Program Account pledged to, and charged with, the payment of the project costs in the manner outlined in 30-A M.R.S.A. §5227(3). The Bayside TIF Development Program Account is established consisting of a project cost account (“Project Cost Account”) pledged to, and charged with, payment of project costs. The Project Cost Account shall consist of Company Cost Subaccounts (Company Cost Subaccount), pledged to and charged with payment to authorized companies under the terms of an approved Credit Enhancement Agreement for reimbursements for eligible project costs, and a City Cost Subaccount (the “City Cost Subaccount”) pledged to, and charged with, payment to the City for the cost of approved economic development expenses. C. Financing Plan The original TIF District comprised an area of approximately 11 acres of real and personal property. The value of the real and personal property within the district as of March 31, 2002 was established as the original assessed value. With the subsequent expansion (Amendment 1), the value of the additional real and personal property within the district expansion as of March 31, 2007 was established as the original assessed value, with that value being $44,066,380. With the additional expansion via Amendment 6 from 62.18 to add 67 acres to the District, for a total of 129.18 acres, the value of real property within the expanded District of 67 acres has a March 31, 2014 date established as the original assessed value, or $78,251,800 as detailed in Section IV.A. above, for a total OAV of the District at $122,318,180. The developments within the described Amended Bayside TIF District will add significant new taxable value in the City of Portland. TIF revenues will be allocated as described on revised Exhibit 1 to finance the costs described in the Amended Development Program. Actual payments to the Project Cost Account will be adjusted based upon the applicable annual percentage retained, or a specific amount to be 9 26 of 30 PROPOSED BAYSIDE TIF DISTRICT CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS –AMENDMENT 9 retained within the Amended District, and the actual annual assessed value within the Amended District, to be determined by the City Council on a yearly basis.

Mitchell, Director MEMORANDUM TO: Economic Development Committee FROM: Greg Mitchell Brendan O’Connell DATE: September 11, 2018 SUBJECT: Proposed Amendments to City Downtown Transit Oriented Development Area-wide Tax Increment Financing District I. ONE SENTENCE SUMMARY A public hearing will be held at the September 18, 2018 EDC meeting for a vote, in the form of a recommendation to the City Council, to approve the Proposed Amendments to the Downtown Transit Oriented Development Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District. II. AGENDA DESCRIPTION Amendments to the Downtown Transit Oriented Development TIF District are proposed to maximize utilization of the TIF District revenue by adding more public investment options for use of TIF revenue, along with increasing the TIF District Annual Capture Rate from 22% to 100%. It is noted that the City staff proposed amendments do not involve credit enhancement agreements. III. BACKGROUND Downtown Transit (Existing and Proposed Amendments) Geography. 421.52 acres generally bounded by State Street, Bayside TIF District and I-295, Washington Avenue, and the Waterfront TIF District. TIF Term. Fiscal Years 2016-2045 Overview of TIF District Expenditures to Date. Downtown TOD TIF Expenditures from FY2016 thru FY2018 Uses Expenditures Public Infrastructure $346,595 Creative Portland $300,000 Staff $20,000 Total Invested: $666,595 1 of 29 Existing and Proposed Amendments to Uses of Revenue. See attached Downtown Transit TIF District Program which shows existing and proposed amendments to allowable uses of TIF District revenue in a strike through and underline format. Capture Rates >Existing. 22% >Proposed. 100%. City staff’s recommendation is to increase the “allowable” capture to enable maximum use of TIF revenue. It is noted that increasing the “allowable” capture rate does not require the City to annually capture the full amount. Final decisions related to use of TIF revenue are made annually through the City budget process. There are no proposed changes to the geography of the Downtown Transit TIF District. IV. INTENDED RESULT AND/OR COUNCIL GOAL ADDRESSED City Council approval of the proposed amendments to the Downtown Transit Oriented Development TIF District to support increased private sector investment and associated job creation. V. FINANCIAL IMPACT TIF District Estimates. See attached spreadsheets for estimates of property tax revenue and funds available to the General Fund. Tax projections are provided for 22% and 100% TIF capture rates for the remainder of the Downtown Transit TIF District term. Tax Shelter (Financial Benefits). Probably the most important, but least understood public benefit associated with TIF districts, is the tax shelter or local financial benefits. Municipalities realize “savings” from the tax sheltering effect of TIF Districts. The following direct financial impacts occur when municipal valuation increases: A. State Education Aid is reduced, B. State Municipal Revenue Sharing is reduced, and C. A municipality pays a higher percentage of the County budget. This amount of “savings” is significant and one of the most important benefits of establishing TIF Districts. For Portland, tax shelter savings is conservatively estimated at 30%, meaning that for every new tax dollar, Portland saves 30 cents which would otherwise be lost for property tax value not included in a TIF District. The estimated tax shelter savings for the remainder of the Downtown Transit TIF District term is as follows: 22% - $18,600,000, or $715,000 Annually 100% - $84,500,000 or $3,250,000 Annually 2 of 29 Net Impact to the General Fund The savings referenced above is a direct benefit to the general fund – both to the City and the School Department via an increase in revenue from the State of Maine for education, increased revenues for the City from municipal revenue sharing, and decreased expenses for county tax. It is important to note that whenever the TIF capture rate is adjusted upward there will change in how property tax revenue flows between the general fund and the area TIFs. Via careful TIF budgeting, subject to annual budget approval by City Council, certain types of approved expenditures can be moved from the general fund into area TIFs. If the impact of the revenue shift is able to be fully offset the end result is the 30 cent savings on the dollar. A good example is what was done in the FY19 budget. TIF capture rates were adjusted upward by approximately 5% in the Waterfront and Bayside TIF. Although this resulted in slightly less revenue to the general fund, expenses related to Economic Development Department staff, in an amount approximately equal to the revenue shift, were shifted into the TIF. The net result was an increased capture rate in both TIFs, more sheltering savings (approximately 30% in benefits) and no other negative impact on the City or School budgets. It is this type of calculated TIF budgeting which is expected to continue to be utilized moving forward to increase capture rates, maximize sheltering, and ensure only positive impacts to the City and School budgets. VI. STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION City staff recommends approval of the proposed amendments to the Downtown Transit Oriented TIF District. VII.

Introduction – Portland Downtown Transit Oriented Municipal Development and Omnibus Tax Increment Financing District Amendment #2 On February 19, 2015, the City of Portland (the “City”) designated the Portland Downtown Transit Oriented Municipal Development and Omnibus Tax Increment Financing District (the “District”) and adopted this Development Program (the “Development Program”) for the District in an effort to fully realize the visions and goals of the City of Portland Downtown Revitalization Investment Plan (“Downtown Plan”); the Downtown Plan is attached as Exhibit A. The duration of this District will be 30 years beginning July 1, 2015 (Tax Year 4/1/2015; FY2015-16) ending June 30, 2045 (Tax Year 4/1/2044; FY2044-45). a. District Amendment #1 Approved by MDECD February 27, 2018: The purpose of this District amendment is was to remove the parcel designated by the City Assessor as 22-F-1 at 54 Lancaster – a tax exempt parcel (so no value attributed to the Original Assessed Value) with approximately .48 acres, which will be turned into a free-standing Affordable Housing TIF District. Portland’s amended District remaineds the same at approximately 422 acres and is bounded by Washington Avenue to the east, State Street to the west, following the edges of the adjacent Bayside and Waterfront Capital Improvement TIF Districts to the north and south. The District encompasses the central business district of Portland and the abutting east and west ends of the District. In creating the District, the outlying residential areas of the Eastern and Western Promenades have been purposely excluded. b. Proposed District Amendment #2: District Amendment #2 is to increase the allowable uses for Municipal TIF Revenue and increase the percentage capture from 22% to 100%, all as more detailed in Section II below. The Downtown Plan includes a listing of current projects and categories of future investment. It is recognized that meeting the infrastructure needs of Portland’s downtown will be a dynamic process that will be updated locally on an annual basis or as needed. Though the specific public projects prioritized and undertaken from year to year will change, with the exception of this District funding up to $100,000 annually for the Creative Portland Corporation, categories of investment for the purpose of eligible uses of the TIF Revenues will remain consistent. Actual project selections and prioritization for funding will continue to be made on an annual basis during the City budget and Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) process, based on categories contained in Table 1 hereinbelow. The CIP is the document that presents the City’s capital needs in the current year and plans for capital needs in future years. As a five year plan that is annually updated, the CIP is a dynamic planning document; the FY2015 to 2019 CIP document is included in the Downtown Plan as an appendice. II. Development Program Narrative A. The Development Program as Amended with Amendment #2 8 of 29 The Amended Development Program for the Downtown Transit Oriented Municipal Development and Omnibus TIF District is structured and proposed pursuant to Chapter 206 of Title 30-A of the Maine Revised TIF Statutes, as amended (the “TIF Statute”), and remains the same. The City’s designation of the District, combined with the adoption of this Amended Development Program, creates a single municipal TIF district in order to capture the value of the real property improvements made within the District and enable the use of TIF revenues for various municipal and other development projects. Under this Amended Development Program, the City may captured up to 12% in year one, and up to and 22% in years 2 through 304. This Amended Development Program would now allow for the City to capture up to 100%, of the new real property value located in the District for remainder of the term of the District, or through Tax Year April 1, 2044/City Fiscal Year 2044/2045.a total of thirty (30) years. The City may retain those tax revenues generated by the captured assessed value (the “TIF Revenues”) to fund infrastructure improvements and other administrative costs, all as further described in Table 1 hereinbelow. The City reserves the right to capture less than the full 10012% in year one and less than the 22% in years 25 through 30, depending on the then-current needs of the City with respect to the approved project costs. Any reduction in the captured value percentage shall adjust the amount of assessed value eligible for sheltering with respect to the tax shift benefit correspondingly. Although all TIF Revenues will be retained by the City at this time, the City reserves the right in the future to negotiate and execute commercial credit enhancement agreements pursuant to City Council approved TIF Policy as may be amended from time to time. CEAs would be limited, however, to the of up to twenty years, or limited to the balance of District term at that time., and up to sixty-five percent (65%) of the TIF Revenues, within sole Council discretion. Such future credit enhancement agreements would require a public hearing and City Council approval. Proposed Amendments to City TIF Policy is attached as Exhibit B, and they were approved by the City Council on November 20, 2017. Amendments include allowing Affordable Housing TIF District credit enhancement agreements to have a maximum term allowed as 30 years (or if in this District limited to balance of District term at that time), and also allowing up to 75% capture for the term. In designating the District and adopting this Amended Development Program, the City can accomplish the following goals: - Maintain existing tax revenues; - Invest in the Downtown public infrastructure; - Invest in the Creative Portland Corporation annually; - Invest in new and enhanced transit services; - Enjoy enhanced future tax revenues generated by new development within the District; and - Create long-term, stable employment opportunities for area residents because of these TIF investments. 9 of 29 In addition, by creating the District, the City will “shelter” the increase in municipal valuation that development in the District will bring about. This tax shift benefit mitigates the adverse effect that the District’s increased assessed property value has upon the City’s share of state aid to education, municipal revenue sharing, and its county tax assessment. An estimate of the tax shift benefits is shown in Revised Exhibit D-2 attached hereto. The City’s designation of the District and pursuit of this Amended Development Program constitute a good and valid public purpose pursuant to Chapter 206 of Title 30-A because it represents a substantial contribution to the economic well-being of both the City and the region by providing jobs, contributing to property taxes, and diversifying the region’s economic base. B. The Projects Development within the District will provide a revenue source for the City’s economic development projects. The City intends to use TIF Revenues to further its overall plan to attract and retain businesses that want to take advantage of Portland’s business-friendly location, while offering their employees a rich, dynamic, and high quality of life. This includes funding of Creative Portland Corporation, of which the City of Portland is the Corporator, of up to $100,000 annually, as well as City plans to invest in its public infrastructure in these investment focus areas: - Sidewalk and Other Pedestrian Enhancements - Streetscape - Lighting - Street Alignment - Utilities - Bicycle Improvements - Public Transit - Wayfinding - Multi-modal surface and structured parking - Work force training - Professional service costs - Economic Development Department administrative costs and staff salaries, and prorated salaries of the City Manager, Finance Director, and Planning and Urban Development Director, and Planning staff. 10 of 29 The District projects at this time are highlighted in Table 1 below: TABLE 1 NOTE 1: All Citations refer to Title 30-A, Chapter 206, Section 5225 NOTE 2: While this Amended Development Program lists particular projects, the Amended Development Program shall not serve as an appropriation of TIF Revenues for any of these specific purposes, nor shall it commit the City to completing any particular project.

C. Strategic Growth and Development This Amended Development Program and the Downtown Plan meld various studies and plans for the District into one document, thereby promoting those studies and plans and making investments at the appropriate time. The studies and plans noted in the Downtown Plan represent a series of community initiatives, both completed and underway, or in planning process. The Amended Development Program and Project List (Table 1) noted hereinabove represents the best thinking of City staff about current opportunities for realizing the City’s longstanding, evolving vision for its Downtown. D. Improvements to the Public Infrastructure 13 of 29 As further set forth in Table 1 hereinabove, the City may use certain TIF Revenues for sidewalk and other pedestrian improvements including crosswalks, roadway realignments/paving, intersection redesigns, traffic signals, bicycle infrastructure, stormwater management improvements (including water and sewer maintenance), communications infrastructure improvements/enhancements, wayfinding, multi-modal surface and structured parking, and public plaza intersection improvements that are directly related and made necessary by development in the District. E. Operational Components 1. Public Facilities The City may use a portion of the TIF Revenues to fund certain projects approved within the District, outlined in Table 1 hereinabove. 2. Commercial Improvements Financed through the Development Program At this time, no commercial improvements will be financed through the Development Program. The City may, in the future, reimburse a percentage of the TIF Revenues from any particular lot within the District to future developers through a credit enhancement agreement. Future credit enhancement agreements are authorized only if the City Council meets and holds a public hearing and votes to authorize, negotiate, and execute the credit enhancement agreement pursuant to City Council approved TIF Policy. Such credit enhancement agreements would be approved under the City’s TIF Policy, as may be amended from time to timemay provide a reimbursement of up to sixty-five percent (65%) of the TIF Revenue for up to twenty (20) years in the District, but limited to the balance of the term of this District. 3. Relocation of Displaced Persons It is not anticipated that any persons will be relocated; however, the City has provided that if, in the future, relocation of persons is necessary to accommodate future redevelopment within the District, the one-time relocation costs of such displaced persons can be paid for with TIF Revenues, exclusive of rent. 4. Transportation Improvements The City may fund road/transportation improvements made necessary by the increased traffic to the District. Please see Table 1 hereinabove for more details. 5. Environmental Controls The improvements made under this Development Program will meet or exceed all federal, state, and local environmental laws, regulations, and ordinances and will comply with all applicable land use requirements for the City. 6. Plan of Operation 14 of 29 During the term of the District, the City Manager or his designee will be responsible for all administrative matters within the purview of the City concerning the implementation and operation of the District. III. Physical Description The 422-acre District is bounded by Washington Avenue to the east, State Street to the west, following the edges of the adjacent Bayside and Waterfront Capital Improvement TIF Districts to the north and south. The District encompasses the central business district of Portland and the abutting east and west ends of the District. In creating the District, the outlying residential areas of the Eastern and Western Promenades have been purposely excluded. The amended District is shown on Exhibit C. The statutory threshold limits addressing the conditions for approval mandated by 30-A M.R.S.A. Section 5223(3) are set forth in Exhibit E. IV. Financial Plan A. Amended Financial Characteristics The collective original assessed value of the real property in the District is $968,136,850 as of March 31, 2014 (Tax Year April 1, 2013) remains unchanged. Please see the Assessor’s certificate of the original assessed value attached as Exhibit F. It is noted that Downtown TOD/TIF acreage and value calculations are exempt from State TIF law limits. The City may captured up to 12% in year 1, and up to 22% in years 2 through 430, of the increased assessed value of the real property located within the District. This Amendment would provide for the City to capture up to 100% for the duration of the 30-year term of the District. Personal property tax value will not be captured within the District. The TIF Revenues so collected will fund and/or contribute to the funding of the approved projects, including each of the projects described on Table 1 hereinabove, which collectively increase the City’s ability to stand out in a competitive marketplace as a dynamic municipality in which to grow a business. All assessed real property value captured in the District will be added to the general tax rolls at the end of the District’s term. Please note that at any time during the term of the District, the municipality can vote to reduce the captured value percentage and instead deposit the tax revenues into the General Fund so long as the municipality does not receive the tax shift benefit associated with the tax revenues so deposited. Upon each payment of real property taxes for property located inside the District, the City will deposit into a development program fund (the “Development Program Fund”) the entirety of the property tax payments constituting TIF Revenues. The percentage of increased assessed value of real property within the District that will be captured shall be determined annually during the municipal budget process; however, the City may capture up to 100% in Years 5 through 3012% in year one, and up to 22% in years 2 through 30, of the increased assessed value of real property as captured assessed value. The Development Program Fund is pledged to and charged with the payment of the project costs in the manner and in the order provided in 30-A M.R.S.A. Section 5227(3). The Development Program Fund will consist of a development sinking fund account (the “Sinking Fund Account”) to the extent municipal bonded 15 of 29 indebtedness is used to pay for projects costs, and a project cost account (the “Project Cost Account”). From the Development Program Fund, the City will deposit the TIF Revenues into the City’s Sinking Fund Account and/or the Project Cost Account to be used to fund projects listed in Table 1 hereinabove. If future credit enhancement agreements are approved by the City Council, then a subaccount within the Project Cost Account shall be created for any payments required to be made by the City pursuant to such credit enhancement agreement, dedicated to each credit enhancement agreement. Estimates of the increased assessed property values of the Amended District, the anticipated TIF Revenues generated by the District, and the estimated tax shifts are shown in Revised Exhibit D-1 and Revised Exhibit D-2. B. Costs and Sources of Revenues The current and future developers owning or leasing properties located within the Districted are intended to pay for and/or finance all private improvements located in the District through private sources. Table 1 hereinabove provides estimated costs of the municipal projects costs to be undertaken with TIF Revenues. C. Indebtedness The City reserves the option to fund the project costs through public indebtedness. V. Statutory Requirements and Thresholds The statutory requirements and thresholds for approval required by Section 5223(3) of the TIF Statute are set forth in Exhibit E. VI. Municipal Approvals A.

Amendment #1: Approved by the Portland City Council on November 20, 2017, To Take Out Parcel 22-F-11 Amendment #2: Proposed to City Council October 2018 to Increase Allowable Uses of Municipal TIF Revenue and Increase Capture Rate up to 100% Prepared by: The City of Portland Economic Development Department 18 of 29 I. Introduction – Portland Downtown Transit Oriented Municipal Development and Omnibus Tax Increment Financing District Amendment #2 On February 19, 2015, the City of Portland (the “City”) designated the Portland Downtown Transit Oriented Municipal Development and Omnibus Tax Increment Financing District (the “District”) and adopted this Development Program (the “Development Program”) for the District in an effort to fully realize the visions and goals of the City of Portland Downtown Revitalization Investment Plan (“Downtown Plan”); the Downtown Plan is attached as Exhibit A. The duration of this District will be 30 years beginning July 1, 2015 (Tax Year 4/1/2015; FY2015-16) ending June 30, 2045 (Tax Year 4/1/2044; FY2044-45). a. District Amendment #1 Approved by MDECD February 27, 2018: The purpose of this District amendment was to remove the parcel designated by the City Assessor as 22-F-1 at 54 Lancaster – a tax exempt parcel (so no value attributed to the Original Assessed Value) with approximately .48 acres, which will be turned into a free-standing Affordable Housing TIF District. Portland’s amended District remained the same at approximately 422 acres and bounded by Washington Avenue to the east, State Street to the west, following the edges of the adjacent Bayside and Waterfront Capital Improvement TIF Districts to the north and south. The District encompasses the central business district of Portland and the abutting east and west ends of the District. In creating the District, the outlying residential areas of the Eastern and Western Promenades have been purposely excluded. b. Proposed District Amendment #2: District Amendment #2 is to increase the allowable uses for Municipal TIF Revenue and increase the percentage capture from 22% to 100%, all as more detailed in Section II below. The Downtown Plan includes a listing of current projects and categories of future investment. It is recognized that meeting the infrastructure needs of Portland’s downtown will be a dynamic process that will be updated locally on an annual basis or as needed. Though the specific public projects prioritized and undertaken from year to year will change, with the exception of this District funding up to $100,000 annually for the Creative Portland Corporation, categories of investment for the purpose of eligible uses of the TIF Revenues will remain consistent. Actual project selections and prioritization for funding will continue to be made on an annual basis during the City budget and Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) process, based on categories contained in Table 1 hereinbelow. The CIP is the document that presents the City’s capital needs in the current year and plans for capital needs in future years. As a five year plan that is annually updated, the CIP is a dynamic planning document; the FY2015 to 2019 CIP document is included in the Downtown Plan as an appendice. 19 of 29 II. Development Program Narrative A. The Development Program as Amended with Amendment #2 The Amended Development Program for the Downtown Transit Oriented Municipal Development and Omnibus TIF District is structured and proposed pursuant to Chapter 206 of Title 30-A of the Maine Revised TIF Statutes, as amended (the “TIF Statute”). The City’s designation of the District, combined with the adoption of this Amended Development Program, creates a single municipal TIF district in order to capture the value of the real property improvements made within the District and enable the use of TIF revenues for various municipal and other development projects. Under this Amended Development Program, the City captured 12% in year one, and 22% in years 2 through 4. This Amended Development Program would now allow for the City to capture up to 100% of the new real property value located in the District for remainder of the term of the District, or through Tax Year April 1, 2044/City Fiscal Year 2044/2045.. The City may retain those tax revenues generated by the captured assessed value (the “TIF Revenues”) to fund infrastructure improvements and other administrative costs, all as further described in Table 1 hereinbelow. The City reserves the right to capture less than the full 100% in years 5 through 30, depending on the then-current needs of the City with respect to the approved project costs. Any reduction in the captured value percentage shall adjust the amount of assessed value eligible for sheltering with respect to the tax shift benefit correspondingly. Although all TIF Revenues will be retained by the City at this time, the City reserves the right in the future to negotiate and execute commercial credit enhancement agreements pursuant to City Council approved TIF Policy as may be amended from time to time. CEAs would be limited, however, to the balance of District term at that time.Such future credit enhancement agreements would require a public hearing and City Council approval. In designating the District and adopting this Amended Development Program, the City can accomplish the following goals: - Maintain existing tax revenues; - Invest in the Downtown public infrastructure; - Invest in the Creative Portland Corporation annually; - Invest in new and enhanced transit services; - Enjoy enhanced future tax revenues generated by new development within the District; and - Create long-term, stable employment opportunities for area residents because of these TIF investments. In addition, by creating the District, the City will “shelter” the increase in municipal valuation that development in the District will bring about. This tax shift benefit mitigates the adverse effect that the District’s increased assessed property value has upon the City’s share of state aid to education, municipal revenue sharing, and its county tax assessment. An estimate of the tax shift benefits is shown in Revised Exhibit D-2 attached hereto. 20 of 29 The City’s designation of the District and pursuit of this Amended Development Program constitute a good and valid public purpose pursuant to Chapter 206 of Title 30-A because it represents a substantial contribution to the economic well-being of both the City and the region by providing jobs, contributing to property taxes, and diversifying the region’s economic base. B. The Projects Development within the District will provide a revenue source for the City’s economic development projects. The City intends to use TIF Revenues to further its overall plan to attract and retain businesses that want to take advantage of Portland’s business-friendly location, while offering their employees a rich, dynamic, and high quality of life. This includes funding of Creative Portland Corporation, of which the City of Portland is the Corporator, of up to $100,000 annually, as well as City plans to invest in its public infrastructure in these investment focus areas: - Sidewalk and Other Pedestrian Enhancements - Streetscape - Lighting - Street Alignment - Utilities - Bicycle Improvements - Public Transit - Wayfinding - Multi-modal surface and structured parking - Work force training - Professional service costs - Economic Development Department administrative costs and staff salaries, and prorated salaries of the City Manager, Finance Director, Planning and Urban Development Director, and Planning staff. The District projects at this time are highlighted in Table 1 below: 21 of 29 TABLE 1 NOTE 1: All Citations refer to Title 30-A, Chapter 206, Section 5225 NOTE 2: While this Amended Development Program lists particular projects, the Amended Development Program shall not serve as an appropriation of TIF Revenues for any of these specific purposes, nor shall it commit the City to completing any particular project. The projects will only be undertaken following proper appropriation through the annual budget process and any other applicable required approvals.

C. Strategic Growth and Development This Amended Development Program and the Downtown Plan meld various studies and plans for the District into one document, thereby promoting those studies and plans and making investments at the appropriate time. The studies and plans noted in the Downtown Plan represent a series of community initiatives, both completed and underway, or in planning process. The Amended Development Program and Project List (Table 1) noted hereinabove represents the best thinking of City staff about current opportunities for realizing the City’s longstanding, evolving vision for its Downtown. D.

E. Operational Components 1. Public Facilities The City may use a portion of the TIF Revenues to fund certain projects approved within the District, outlined in Table 1 hereinabove. 2. Commercial Improvements Financed through the Development Program At this time, no commercial improvements will be financed through the Development Program. The City may, in the future, reimburse a percentage of the TIF Revenues from any particular lot within the District to future developers through a credit enhancement agreement. Future credit enhancement agreements are authorized only if the City Council meets and holds a public hearing and votes to authorize, negotiate, and execute the credit enhancement agreement pursuant to City Council approved TIF Policy. Such credit enhancement agreements would be approved under the City’s TIF Policy, as may be amended from time to time, but limited to the balance of the term of this District. 3. Relocation of Displaced Persons It is not anticipated that any persons will be relocated; however, the City has provided that if, in the future, relocation of persons is necessary to accommodate future redevelopment within the District, the one-time relocation costs of such displaced persons can be paid for with TIF Revenues, exclusive of rent. 4.

Plan of Operation During the term of the District, the City Manager or his designee will be responsible for all administrative matters within the purview of the City concerning the implementation and operation of the District. 25 of 29 III. Physical Description The 422-acre District is bounded by Washington Avenue to the east, State Street to the west, following the edges of the adjacent Bayside and Waterfront Capital Improvement TIF Districts to the north and south. The District encompasses the central business district of Portland and the abutting east and west ends of the District. In creating the District, the outlying residential areas of the Eastern and Western Promenades have been purposely excluded. The District is shown on Exhibit C. The statutory threshold limits addressing the conditions for approval mandated by 30-A M.R.S.A. Section 5223(3) are set forth in Exhibit E. IV. Financial Plan A. Amended Financial Characteristics The collective original assessed value of the real property in the District is $968,136,850 as of March 31, 2014 (Tax Year April 1, 2013) remains unchanged. Please see the Assessor’s certificate of the original assessed value attached as Exhibit F. It is noted that Downtown TOD/TIF acreage and value calculations are exempt from State TIF law limits. The City captured 12% in year 1, and 22% in years 2 through 4, of the increased assessed value of the real property located within the District. This Amendment would provide for the City to capture up to 100% for the duration of the 30-year term of the District. Personal property tax value will not be captured within the District. The TIF Revenues so collected will fund and/or contribute to the funding of the approved projects, including each of the projects described on Table 1 hereinabove, which collectively increase the City’s ability to stand out in a competitive marketplace as a dynamic municipality in which to grow a business. All assessed real property value captured in the District will be added to the general tax rolls at the end of the District’s term. Please note that at any time during the term of the District, the municipality can vote to reduce the captured value percentage and instead deposit the tax revenues into the General Fund so long as the municipality does not receive the tax shift benefit associated with the tax revenues so deposited. Upon each payment of real property taxes for property located inside the District, the City will deposit into a development program fund (the “Development Program Fund”) the entirety of the property tax payments constituting TIF Revenues. The percentage of increased assessed value of real property within the District that will be captured shall be determined annually during the municipal budget process; however, the City may capture up to 100% in Years 5 through 30 of the increased assessed value of real property as captured assessed value. The Development Program Fund is pledged to and charged with the payment of the project costs in the manner and in the order provided in 30-A M.R.S.A. Section 5227(3). The Development Program Fund will consist of a development sinking fund account (the “Sinking Fund Account”) to the extent municipal bonded indebtedness is used to pay for projects costs, and a project cost account (the “Project Cost Account”). From the Development Program Fund, the City will deposit the TIF Revenues into the City’s Sinking Fund Account and/or the Project Cost Account 26 of 29 to be used to fund projects listed in Table 1 hereinabove. If future credit enhancement agreements are approved by the City Council, then a subaccount within the Project Cost Account shall be created for any payments required to be made by the City pursuant to such credit enhancement agreement, dedicated to each credit enhancement agreement. Estimates of the increased assessed property values of the Amended District, the anticipated TIF Revenues generated by the District, and the estimated tax shifts are shown in Revised Exhibit D-1 and Revised Exhibit D-2. B. Costs and Sources of Revenues The current and future developers owning or leasing properties located within the Districted are intended to pay for and/or finance all private improvements located in the District through private sources. Table 1 hereinabove provides estimated costs of the municipal projects costs to be undertaken with TIF Revenues. C. Indebtedness The City reserves the option to fund the project costs through public indebtedness. V.

Mitchell, Director MEMORANDUM TO: Economic Development Committee FROM: Greg Mitchell Brendan O’Connell DATE: September 11, 2018 SUBJECT: Proposed Amendments to City Waterfront Tax Increment Financing District, including Proposed Amendments to the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone and Ordinance I. ONE SENTENCE SUMMARY A public hearing will be held at the September 18, 2018 EDC meeting for a vote, in the form of a recommendation to the City Council, to approve the Proposed Amendments to the Waterfront Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District, including the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone and Ordinance. II. AGENDA DESCRIPTION Amendments to the Waterfront TIF District and Growth areas are proposed to maximize utilization of the TIF District revenue by adding more public investment options for use of TIF revenue, along with adding additional properties to expand the Waterfront TIF District. Also, Amendments to the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone and Ordinance are proposed to expand the future “growth” area for the Waterfront TIF District. Housekeeping and clarifying amendments to the ordinance are also proposed to align the ordinance with current practice and avoid confusion with other sections of the Land Use Code. To promote clarity within the ordinance and to avoid confusion with other sections of the Land Use Code, the amendments include changing the title of the program from the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone and Ordinance to WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT GROWTH AREA ORDINANCE Lastly, it is noted that the City staff proposed amendments do not involve credit enhancement agreements. CITY OF PORTLAND/ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPT./389 CONGRESS ST./PORTLAND, ME 04101/(207) 874-8683 1 of 63 III. BACKGROUND Geography. 6.62 acres. This District includes seven non-contiguous properties. It is noted the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone (WREZ) and Ordinance establishes the area on Portland’s waterfront which is “reserved” for future expansion of the Waterfront TIF District. If the attached amendments are adopted, this area will be referred to as the Waterfront Development Growth Area. Individual properties selected within the Growth Area that are included within the TIF program will continue to be referred to as parcels within the Waterfront TIF District. TIF Term. Fiscal Years 2003-2032. Capture Rate. 100% Overview of TIF District Expenditures to Date: Waterfront TIF Expenditures from FY2016 thru FY2018 Uses Revenue Public Infrastructure $46,100 Credit Enhancement Agreement $574,646 Debt Service $549,650 Staff $319,467 Total Invested: $1,489,863 Existing and Proposed Amendments to Uses of Revenue. See attached Waterfront TIF District Program which shows existing and proposed amendments to allowable uses of TIF District revenue in a strike through and underline format. Proposed Amendments - New Geography. See attached map for additional properties to expand the Waterfront TIF District to increase the amount of TIF funds to support waterfront public infrastructure needs. No change is proposed to the capture rate Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone and Ordinance (Existing and Proposed Amendments) The existing Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone and Ordinance was adopted in 2001 to implement those provisions of the Waterfront Economic Development Task Force Report entitled “Investing in Our Working Waterfront: Final Report to the Mayor’s Waterfront Task Force on Economic Development,” dated September 2000, as adopted by the City Council on June 4, 20001 and as amended by the City Council on December 1, 2008. CITY OF PORTLAND/ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPT./389 CONGRESS ST./PORTLAND, ME 04101/(207) 874-8683 2 of 63 Proposed Amendments include: Area. Expanding the growth area for the Waterfront TIF District to add the entire western waterfront from the Casco Bay Bridge to include Sprague Energy. Individual Parcels. Within the existing and expanded Waterfront Development Growth Area (currently the WREZ), staff is recommending individual parcels for inclusion within the Waterfront TIF District. Each of these highlighted parcels has an anticipated development program. Private parcels and developments would be subject to new tax value capture. City parcels and infrastructure highlighted would be eligible for “in district” use of funds as outlined in the development program improvements. Reporting Amendments. The current ordinance requires that an extensive set of reports be prepared. Multiple City departments are active in the areas listed providing input to the Council on a project-by-project basis. Staff recommends that the Waterfront TIF ordinance limit reporting requirements to the financial activity of the program, as is provided in the Annual TIF District Activity Report. Housekeeping Revisions. Title changes and terminology consistency is applied to create a more unified document and avoid duplicative uses of terms such as “zone” within the ordinance. The metes and bounds description of the Growth Area is replaced with a map within the ordinance. Note: At the request of the Planning and Urban Development Director, it is proposed that this Ordinance be relocated out of the Land Use Chapter of the City Code. IV. INTENDED RESULT AND/OR COUNCIL GOAL ADDRESSED City Council approval of the proposed amendments to the Waterfront TIF District, including amendments to the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Ordinance, to support increased public and private sector investment and associated job creation. V. FINANCIAL IMPACT TIF District Estimates. See attached spreadsheet for estimates of property tax revenue, funds available to the City General Fund, and one credit enhancement agreement included in the Waterfront TIF District. Tax Shelter (Financial Benefits). Probably the most important, but least understood public benefit associated with TIF districts, is the tax shelter or local financial benefits. Municipalities realize “savings” from the tax sheltering effect of TIF Districts. The following direct financial impacts occur when municipal valuation increases: A. State Education Aid is reduced, B. State Municipal Revenue Sharing is reduced, and C. A municipality pays a higher percentage of the County budget. CITY OF PORTLAND/ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPT./389 CONGRESS ST./PORTLAND, ME 04101/(207) 874-8683 3 of 63 This amount of “savings” is significant and one of the most important benefits of establishing TIF Districts. For Portland, tax shelter savings is conservatively estimated at 30%, meaning that for every new tax dollar, Portland saves 30 cents which would otherwise be lost for property tax value not included in a TIF District. The estimated tax shelter savings for the remainder of the Waterfront TIF District term – FY2020 through FY2032 - (including all additional properties to expand the Waterfront TIF District) is $34,485,000, or a yearly average of $2,652,000. Net Impact to the General Fund The savings referenced above is a direct benefit to the general fund – both to the City and the School Department via an increase in revenue from the State of Maine for education, increased revenues for the City from municipal revenue sharing, and decreased expenses for county tax. It is important to note that whenever the TIF capture rate is adjusted upward there will change in how property tax revenue flows between the general fund and the area TIFs. Via careful TIF budgeting, subject to annual budget approval by City Council, certain types of approved expenditures can be moved from the general fund into area TIFs. If the impact of the revenue shift is able to be fully offset the end result is the 30 cent savings on the dollar. A good example is what was done in the FY19 budget. TIF capture rates were adjusted upward by approximately 5% in the Waterfront and Bayside TIF. Although this resulted in slightly less revenue to the general fund, expenses related to Economic Development Department staff, in an amount approximately equal to the revenue shift, were shifted into the TIF. The net result was an increased capture rate in both TIFs, more sheltering savings (approximately 30% in benefits) and no other negative impact on the City or School budgets. It is this type of calculated TIF budgeting which is expected to continue to be utilized moving forward to increase capture rates, maximize sheltering, and ensure only positive impacts to the City and School budgets. VI. STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION City staff recommends approval of the proposed amendments to the Waterfront TIF District, including amendments to the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Ordinance.

Introduction The Portland City Council on March 18, 2002, designated five properties as tax increment financing districts (the “Original TIF Districts”) as more specifically described below and adopted the Waterfront Tax Increment Financial Development District Program (the “Original Development Program”). The Original TIF Districts program was designed for the City to capture 100% of the tax increment for specified allowable uses. Amendment #1: On June 7, 2010, the Portland City Council amended approved the Amended and Restated the Original Development Program (“Amended Development Program”), which was approved by the Maine Department of Economic Development and Community Development (“MDECD) on June 28, 2010, as follows:  Extend the term by twenty (20) years;  Reduce the number of TIF investment options;  Authorize the use of Credit Enhancement Agreements within the Waterfront Central Zone; and  Establish a Sub-District (the “Sub-District”) within the District and to authorize a Credit Enhancement Agreement with the Developer with respect to the Sub-District in furtherance of the Cumberland Cold Storage Project. Amendment #2: On March 6, 2018, the Portland City Council further amended the Original TIF Districts to add three properties with the following Chart, Lot, and Block (CBL) numbers (“Added TIF District Properties of 2018”): - 019-A-014001; - 031-K-003001; and, - 031-K-103001. The three additional properties include two projects under construction as follows: WEX Headquarters (019-A-014001) Union Wharf Mixed Use Development (031-K-003001 and 031-K103001) MDECD approved Amendment #2 on May 29, 2018. History: The history of the City of Portland is inextricably tied to the waterfront. From tourism to shipbuilding to national defense, the waterfront has been a vital part of the social and economic fabric of Portland. Always, Portland has worked to recognize the unique needs of the harbor, to protect its authentic marine heritage and to provide public access. The product of this commitment comes from the work of a Mayoral Taskforce report entitled “Investing in Our Working Waterfront – Final Report of the Mayor’s Waterfront Task Force on Economic Development”, dated October 2000 (herein referred to as the “Task Force II Report”). An excerpt from its Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 2 19 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA Executive Summary is included here, and the full Report is attached to this application labeled as Attachment #1. “Portland is a waterfront city. Its harbor is one of the deepest on the East Coast and served as the staging area for the Atlantic Fleet during World War II. Today, it accommodates the largest petroleum trans-shipment operation on the East Coast. The inner harbor is very limited in geography; it is only about two miles in length from Bath Iron Works to Merrill’s Marine Terminal. The wharves that serve the needs of water-dependent businesses are both publicly and privately owned. Over the course of its long history, the Portland waterfront has served as a center of commerce, shipbuilding, cargo and passenger transport, fishing and defense. It has also supported a range of mixed uses, the character of which has changed over time as the City of Portland and its waterfront have evolved. Portland has a 30-year history of commitment to its working waterfront. The City began planning the future of its waterfront in the early 1970’s, culminating in 1982 with multi-faceted development strategies, including zoning amendments, construction of public facilities, and policies to address berthing and public access. Despite these initiatives, the emergence of the Old Port as a vital retail center and tourist attraction threatened to drive traditional industries from their waterfront locations. A citizen-initiated referendum in 1987 passed by a 2-1 margin, clearly demonstrating the public’s commitment to a working waterfront, and significant limitations were placed on development of the water side of Commercial Street. Before the development moratorium expired in 1992, the City asked waterfront interests to review the zoning and recommend any changes that might provide more flexibility in renting space, while protecting water-dependent and marine-related uses (The Waterfront Alliance Report, 1992). While some may argue otherwise, the existing zoning structure, based on the 1992 Report, strikes a reasonable balance between preserving the "working waterfront" and allowing property owners necessary flexibility in managing their assets. Since the 1980’s, Portland and the State of Maine have invested significant public dollars in supporting traditional waterfront activities such as ship repair, commercial fishing, and cargo transfer. At the same time, some private property owners have, for a variety of reasons, lacked the revenues to maintain their piers, resulting in a serious infrastructure problem, which threatens the viability of certain piers as elements of the waterfront economy. Despite investments in publicly owned waterfront facilities, the City has done little to assist private owners of waterfront property, the uses of which have been limited by public policy, as noted above. This report is the result of a charge issued by then-Mayor Tom Kane to “focus on economic support for the waterfront…and to make the working waterfront work.” It is the second of a three-phase process for defining the City’s vision for its waterfront.” The Task Force II Report was presented to the City Council and the public, and the Council voted to incorporate it into the Comprehensive Plan on June 4, 2001. Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 3 20 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA The Task Force II Report identified the unique needs of the waterfront from both an infrastructure and a business development perspective, and several recommendations were made. In order to turn these recommendations into waterfront economic development opportunities, a program to create a funding mechanism through Tax Increment Financing (“TIF”) Districts was put in place. Since the adoption of Waterfront Task Force II report, the City has systematically conducted area specific planning and re-zoning processes for the three waterfront sub-areas identified in the 1992 Waterfront Alliance Report: Eastern Waterfront, Central Waterfront, and Western Waterfront. These processes have resulted in an updated framework of regulation that reflects the industries, infrastructures, water depths, and ownership patterns on the Portland Waterfront. Current regulations continue to prioritize and protect water dependent uses while allowing reasonable flexibility to promote investment. While new zoning promotes waterfront investment, barriers remain. Deferred pier maintenance, shifting industry needs, dredging needs, traffic congestion, and parking shortages continue to challenge public and private piers and the industries that depend on them. II. Development Program A. Amended Development Program With the incorporation of the Task Force II Report into the Portland Comprehensive Plan, the City Council formally recognized the unique business development needs of the waterfront. Since a funding mechanism was required to implement the recommendations of the Report, the City began crafting what ultimately became the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone (“WREZ”) Ordinance (see Attachment #2 as passed June 4, 2001, and Attachment #3 as amended December 1, 2008; and Attachment 3(A) as amended ________________.) whereby any property within the WREZ geographic area, delineated on the attached map (see Revised Attachment #4), that increased in value by an amount greater than $400,000 over a two-year period would be subject to inclusion in a TIF application. By adopting the WREZ Ordinance, the City Council recognized that the non-marine commercial development that has occurred in the Old Port and the surrounding area has benefited through the years from the authenticity of the working waterfront. Said another way, Portland’s downtown became a desirable destination for tourists, retailers, restaurants and high-end office users in part because of the vibrant business of those that depend upon the water for their living. Portland blends a perfect mix of fishing vessels, shipbuilding, chandlery, cargo operations and the like with the lawyers, bankers, dot-com entrepreneurs and tourists. So when a revenue stream was required to maintain and improve the economic vibrancy of the Portland waterfront, the City Council acted in such a way as to nurture this symbiotic relationship by directing the incremental revenues of the new commercial development back to the working waterfront. The result of that action was the adoption of the WREZ Ordinance. The WREZ Ordinance is intended to be in effect for several years. As such, the designation of the five Original TIF Districts described in the Original Development Program were the first in what the City hopes to be a multiple year program where several additional TIF Districts will Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 4 21 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA be created. The common theme underlying the Original Development Program, this Amended Development Program, and future TIF applications is the implementation of the Task Force II Report findings. As such, the projects described in the Original Development Program and this Amended Development Program are intended to be greater in scope than the five Original TIF Districts could support by themselves. 1. Amendment #2 – Three Added Parcels Approved by City Council March 16, 2018 Therefore, the Original Development Program and the three Added TIF District Properties of March 2018 (CBLs 019-A-014001, 031-K003001, and 031-K-103001) will serve as the model for future amendments to the Original Development Program, as amended, as properties become eligible through the WREZ Ordinance. 2. Amendment #3 – Additional Parcels to be Added – September 2018 Additional Parcels to be added include those listed in Section II(D)(4). In addition, this proposed Amendment increases City TIF revenue investment options, as well as increases the geographic area by amending and renaming the WREZ to the “Waterfront Development Growth Area Ordinance”. See proposed amendments to the WREZ as noted on Attachment #____. The activities to be funded through the Original Development Program and, this Amended Development Program, and the three Added TIF District Properties of 2018 will be specifically determined on an annual basis upon recommendation by the City Manager for action by the City Council. Therefore, the City of Portland seeks authorization to fund all the activities described in this Amended Development Program so that each year the City Council could prioritize which specific activities to fund. B. The Projects The projects to be undertaken are derived from the recommendations of the Task Force II Report which are: 1. Encourage private and public waterfront investments; 2.

Since the Original Development Program, this Amended Development Program, and the three Added TIF District Properties of 2018 will serve as the template for future TIF District applications, however, the City again seeks authorization for the full “menu” of economic development activities described above. This is necessary to maintain flexibility and adaptability as the needs of the waterfront are prioritized throughout the life of this Amended Development Program. In District Use of Funds Pier and Wharf Structural Repair The waterfront infrastructure needs are considerable. The Task Force II Report estimates the need for $1.4 million in repairs to 14 wharves within three years, with an additional $1.8 million needed over the next 20 years. Local Match for Ocean Gateway Project The voters of the State of Maine approved an allocation of roughly $15 million for the construction of a marine passenger facility, requiring a local match of nearly $1 million. Street Studies and Improvements (Remedy Traffic Congestion) With the development of the Ocean Gateway facility, significant transportation improvements will be required to accommodate the increased traffic on the street network along and around the waterfront, with particular emphasis on Franklin Arterial, Commercial Street and India Street. Pedestrian Circulation and Amenity Improvements Invest in pedestrian and multi-modal infrastructure to support the working waterfront and improve public access to the waterfront. Dredging This recommendation recognizes the environmental and financial burdens caused by combined sewer overflows and storm water pipes that discharge into the harbor. The cost associated with disposing the contaminated dredge material jumps to more than $100 per cubic yard vs. as little as $12 per cubic yard for uncontaminated dredge disposal costs. Placing an additional financial burden on the marine industry, the significant cost of the disposal of the contaminated dredged material allows only a limited ability to recover those costs through increased berthing fees. Since there are public health and ecological benefits associated with removing contaminated sediment, the Report recommends that the City devise a strategy to dispose of contaminated Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 7 24 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA sediments and to subsidize a portion of the costs of the dredging. See CAD Cell Development discussion below. New Publicly Owned Pier Located between the Portland Ocean Terminal and Ocean Gateway, a new deep-water pier will offer expanded berthing supporting cruise ship, home porting, tug boat, and transient berthing for current and future marine transportation industries. Multimodal surface and Structured Parking Existing and future waterfront industries and developments require shared parking resourcses to promote continued growth and opportunities for transportation choice. Economic Development Staffing, and prorated salaries of the Finance Director, Planning and Urban Development Director, and Planning Staff Fund a portion of the cost of City economic development staff involved in supporting waterfront business development activities and administration of the Original Development Program and this Amended Development Program, and prorated salaries of the Finance Director, Planning and Urban Development Director, and Planning staff. Credit Enhancement Agreements The City Council may approve credit enhancement agreements within the Waterfront Central Zone (as depicted on Attachment #5) within the remaining term of the Amended Development Program to support important private sector projects in compliance with adopted City TIF Policy and where the City Council determines that the public benefits associated with individual projects meet or exceed the current or net present value of the project’s share of the TIF proceeds for activities consistent with State law. City Council approved City TIF Policy limits the Credit Enhancement Agreements to not exceed 65% of the incremental taxes up to a 20-year term. In and Out of District Use of Funds Workforce Training Funds Marine Industries are increasingly challenged to find qualified workers to fill open positions and to capitalize on opportunities for growth. TIF funding can help expand the pool of applicants for current and future employment while improving employment options. Economic Development Programs and Events Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 8 25 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA Job fairs, technology conferences, industry open houses, and other such events to market and promote the waterfront and its industries. Environmental Improvement Projects Waterfront industries, such as fisheries and tourism benefit from water quality improvement studies and projects. Likewise, sea level rise and other climate change related stresses on industries will increasingly require studies and infrastructure improvements to adapt to changing conditions and promote resiliency. Professional Services Costs Waterfront TIF funds may be used to support consulting and professional services needed for special projects and to conduct the everyday ongoing work implementing the development program. Dredged Sediment Disposal Costs and CAD Cell Development While the dredging of piers and wharfs is considered “in-district,” disposal options for dredged sediments will all be located beyond the limits of the Waterfront TIF districts and growth areas. The City is working with State and local partners to construct a Contained Aquatic Disposal (CAD) cell in Portland Harbor to address the needs of pier dredging for both public and private piers. C. Sub-District Development Program The twenty (20) year Sub-District Development Program supports the redevelopment of the Cumberland Cold Storage 100,000+ square foot building into a Class A office building. A twenty (20) year Credit Enhancement Agreement with the property owner and developer assists with project costs. D . The Development District Property The City Council created the WREZ Ordinance (see Attachments #2, and #3, and #3A) whereby any property within the geographic area, delineated on the attached map (see Revised Attachment #4), that increased in value by an amount greater than $400,000 over a two-year period would be considered for inclusion in a TIF application subject to the City Council approval. NOTE: This Amendment #3 also proposes to amend the WREZ Ordinance to expand the geographic area and rename the Ordinance the “Waterfront Development Growth Area Ordinance”, as noted on Attachment #___. 1.

Introduction The Portland City Council on March 18, 2002, designated five properties as tax increment financing districts (the “Original TIF Districts”) as more specifically described below and adopted the Waterfront Tax Increment Financial Development District Program (the “Original Development Program”). The Original TIF District program was designed for the City to capture 100% of the tax increment for specified allowable uses. Amendment #1: On June 7, 2010, the Portland City Council approved the Amended and Restated the Original Development Program (“Amended Development Program”), which was approved by the Maine Department of Economic Development and Community Development (“MDECD) on June 28, 2010, as follows:  Extend the term by twenty (20) years;  Reduce the number of TIF investment options;  Authorize the use of Credit Enhancement Agreements within the Waterfront Central Zone; and  Establish a Sub-District (the “Sub-District”) within the District and to authorize a Credit Enhancement Agreement with the Developer with respect to the Sub-District in furtherance of the Cumberland Cold Storage Project. Amendment #2: On March 6, 2018, the Portland City Council further amended the Original TIF Districts to add three properties with the following Chart, Lot, and Block (CBL) numbers (“Added TIF District Properties of 2018”): - 019-A-014001; - 031-K-003001; and, - 031-K-103001. The three additional properties include two projects under construction as follows: WEX Headquarters (019-A-014001) Union Wharf Mixed Use Development (031-K-003001 and 031-K103001) MDECD approved Amendment #2 on May 29, 2018. History: The history of the City of Portland is inextricably tied to the waterfront. From tourism to shipbuilding to national defense, the waterfront has been a vital part of the social and economic fabric of Portland. Always, Portland has worked to recognize the unique needs of the harbor, to protect its authentic marine heritage and to provide public access. The product of this commitment comes from the work of a Mayoral Taskforce report entitled “Investing in Our Working Waterfront – Final Report of the Mayor’s Waterfront Task Force on Economic Development”, dated October 2000 (herein referred to as the “Task Force II Report”). An excerpt from its Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 2 41 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA Executive Summary is included here, and the full Report is attached to this application labeled as Attachment #1. “Portland is a waterfront city. Its harbor is one of the deepest on the East Coast and served as the staging area for the Atlantic Fleet during World War II. Today, it accommodates the largest petroleum trans-shipment operation on the East Coast. The inner harbor is very limited in geography; it is only about two miles in length from Bath Iron Works to Merrill’s Marine Terminal. The wharves that serve the needs of water-dependent businesses are both publicly and privately owned. Over the course of its long history, the Portland waterfront has served as a center of commerce, shipbuilding, cargo and passenger transport, fishing and defense. It has also supported a range of mixed uses, the character of which has changed over time as the City of Portland and its waterfront have evolved. Portland has a 30-year history of commitment to its working waterfront. The City began planning the future of its waterfront in the early 1970’s, culminating in 1982 with multi-faceted development strategies, including zoning amendments, construction of public facilities, and policies to address berthing and public access. Despite these initiatives, the emergence of the Old Port as a vital retail center and tourist attraction threatened to drive traditional industries from their waterfront locations. A citizen-initiated referendum in 1987 passed by a 2-1 margin, clearly demonstrating the public’s commitment to a working waterfront, and significant limitations were placed on development of the water side of Commercial Street. Before the development moratorium expired in 1992, the City asked waterfront interests to review the zoning and recommend any changes that might provide more flexibility in renting space, while protecting water-dependent and marine-related uses (The Waterfront Alliance Report, 1992). While some may argue otherwise, the existing zoning structure, based on the 1992 Report, strikes a reasonable balance between preserving the "working waterfront" and allowing property owners necessary flexibility in managing their assets. Since the 1980’s, Portland and the State of Maine have invested significant public dollars in supporting traditional waterfront activities such as ship repair, commercial fishing, and cargo transfer. At the same time, some private property owners have, for a variety of reasons, lacked the revenues to maintain their piers, resulting in a serious infrastructure problem, which threatens the viability of certain piers as elements of the waterfront economy. Despite investments in publicly owned waterfront facilities, the City has done little to assist private owners of waterfront property, the uses of which have been limited by public policy, as noted above. This report is the result of a charge issued by then-Mayor Tom Kane to “focus on economic support for the waterfront…and to make the working waterfront work.” It is the second of a three-phase process for defining the City’s vision for its waterfront.” The Task Force II Report was presented to the City Council and the public, and the Council voted to incorporate it into the Comprehensive Plan on June 4, 2001. Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 3 42 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA The Task Force II Report identified the unique needs of the waterfront from both an infrastructure and a business development perspective, and several recommendations were made. In order to turn these recommendations into waterfront economic development opportunities, a program to create a funding mechanism through Tax Increment Financing (“TIF”) Districts was put in place. Since the adoption of Waterfront Task Force II report, the City has systematically conducted area specific planning and re-zoning processes for the three waterfront sub-areas identified in the 1992 Waterfront Alliance Report: Eastern Waterfront, Central Waterfront, and Western Waterfront. These processes have resulted in an updated framework of regulation that reflects the industries, infrastructures, water depths, and ownership patterns on the Portland Waterfront. Current regulations continue to prioritize and protect water dependent uses while allowing reasonable flexibility to promote investment. While new zoning promotes waterfront investment, barriers remain. Deferred pier maintenance, shifting industry needs, dredging needs, traffic congestion, and parking shortages continue to challenge public and private piers and the industries that depend on them. II. Development Program A. Amended Development Program With the incorporation of the Task Force II Report into the Portland Comprehensive Plan, the City Council formally recognized the unique business development needs of the waterfront. Since a funding mechanism was required to implement the recommendations of the Report, the City began crafting what ultimately became the Waterfront Capital Improvement and Economic Redevelopment Zone (“WREZ”) Ordinance (see Attachment #2 as passed June 4, 2001, Attachment #3 as amended December 1, 2008; and Attachment 3(A) as amended ________________) whereby any property within the WREZ geographic area, delineated on the attached map (see Revised Attachment #4), that increased in value by an amount greater than $400,000 over a two-year period would be subject to inclusion in a TIF application. By adopting the WREZ Ordinance, the City Council recognized that the non-marine commercial development that has occurred in the Old Port and the surrounding area has benefited through the years from the authenticity of the working waterfront. Said another way, Portland’s downtown became a desirable destination for tourists, retailers, restaurants and high-end office users in part because of the vibrant business of those that depend upon the water for their living. Portland blends a perfect mix of fishing vessels, shipbuilding, chandlery, cargo operations and the like with the lawyers, bankers, dot-com entrepreneurs and tourists. So when a revenue stream was required to maintain and improve the economic vibrancy of the Portland waterfront, the City Council acted in such a way as to nurture this symbiotic relationship by directing the incremental revenues of the new commercial development back to the working waterfront. The result of that action was the adoption of the WREZ Ordinance. The WREZ Ordinance is intended to be in effect for several years. As such, the designation of the five Original TIF Districts described in the Original Development Program were the first in what the City hopes to be a multiple year program where several additional TIF Districts will Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 4 43 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA be created. The common theme underlying the Original Development Program, this Amended Development Program, and future TIF applications is the implementation of the Task Force II Report findings. As such, the projects described in the Original Development Program and this Amended Development Program are intended to be greater in scope than the five Original TIF Districts could support by themselves. 1. Amendment #2 – Three Added Parcels Approved by City Council March 16, 2018 The Original Development Program and the three Added TIF District Properties of March 2018 (CBLs 019-A-014001, 031-K003001, and 031-K-103001) will serve as the model for future amendments to the Original Development Program, as amended, as properties become eligible through the WREZ Ordinance. 2. Amendment #3 – Additional Parcels to be Added – September 2018 Additional Parcels to be added include those listed in Section II(D)(4). In addition, this proposed Amendment increases City TIF revenue investment options, as well as increases the geographic area by amending and renaming the WREZ to the “Waterfront Development Growth Area Ordinance”. See proposed amendments to the WREZ as noted on Attachment #____. The activities to be funded through the Original Development Program and this Amended Development Program will be specifically determined on an annual basis upon recommendation by the City Manager for action by the City Council. Therefore, the City of Portland seeks authorization to fund all the activities described in this Amended Development Program so that each year the City Council could prioritize which specific activities to fund. B. The Projects The projects to be undertaken are derived from the recommendations of the Task Force II Report which are: 1. Encourage private and public waterfront investments; 2. Provide support to maintain a working waterfront; 3. Support clean, working harbor.

Total Estimate of TIF Revenue Expenditure over 30- $12,050,000 – year term: excluding CEA Projects Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 6 45 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA The City recognizes that the full scope of the needs of the Waterfront Economic Redevelopment Program is beyond the funds anticipated to be generated through this Amended Development Program. Since the Original Development Program, this Amended Development Program will serve as the template for future TIF District applications, however, the City again seeks authorization for the full “menu” of economic development activities described above. This is necessary to maintain flexibility and adaptability as the needs of the waterfront are prioritized throughout the life of this Amended Development Program. In District Use of Funds Pier and Wharf Structural Repair The waterfront infrastructure needs are considerable. The Task Force II Report estimates the need for $1.4 million in repairs to 14 wharves within three years, with an additional $1.8 million needed over the next 20 years. Local Match for Ocean Gateway Project The voters of the State of Maine approved an allocation of roughly $15 million for the construction of a marine passenger facility, requiring a local match of nearly $1 million. Street Studies and Improvements (Remedy Traffic Congestion) With the development of the Ocean Gateway facility, significant transportation improvements will be required to accommodate the increased traffic on the street network along and around the waterfront, with particular emphasis on Franklin Arterial, Commercial Street and India Street. Pedestrian Circulation and Amenity Improvements Invest in pedestrian and multi-modal infrastructure to support the working waterfront and improve public access to the waterfront. Dredging This recommendation recognizes the environmental and financial burdens caused by combined sewer overflows and storm water pipes that discharge into the harbor. The cost associated with disposing the contaminated dredge material jumps to more than $100 per cubic yard vs. as little as $12 per cubic yard for uncontaminated dredge disposal costs. Placing an additional financial burden on the marine industry, the significant cost of the disposal of the contaminated dredged material allows only a limited ability to recover those costs through increased berthing fees. Since there are public health and ecological benefits associated with removing contaminated sediment, the Report recommends that the City devise a strategy to dispose of contaminated Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 7 46 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA sediments and to subsidize a portion of the costs of the dredging. See CAD Cell Development discussion below. New Publicly Owned Pier Located between the Portland Ocean Terminal and Ocean Gateway, a new deep-water pier will offer expanded berthing supporting cruise ship, home porting, tug boat, and transient berthing for current and future marine transportation industries. Multimodal surface and Structured Parking Existing and future waterfront industries and developments require shared parking resources to promote continued growth and opportunities for transportation choice. Economic Development Staffing, and prorated salaries of the Finance Director, Planning and Urban Development Director, and Planning Staff Fund a portion of the cost of City economic development staff involved in supporting waterfront business development activities and administration of the Original Development Program and this Amended Development Program, and prorated salaries of the Finance Director, Planning and Urban Development Director, and Planning staff. Credit Enhancement Agreements The City Council may approve credit enhancement agreements within the Waterfront Central Zone (as depicted on Attachment #5) within the remaining term of the Amended Development Program to support important private sector projects in compliance with adopted City TIF Policy and where the City Council determines that the public benefits associated with individual projects meet or exceed the current or net present value of the project’s share of the TIF proceeds for activities consistent with State law. City Council approved City TIF Policy limits the Credit Enhancement Agreements to not exceed 65% of the incremental taxes up to a 20-year term. In and Out of District Use of Funds Workforce Training Funds Marine Industries are increasingly challenged to find qualified workers to fill open positions and to capitalize on opportunities for growth. TIF funding can help expand the pool of applicants for current and future employment while improving employment options. Economic Development Programs and Events Job fairs, technology conferences, industry open houses, and other such events to market and promote the waterfront and its industries.

Likewise, sea level rise and other climate change related stresses on industries will increasingly require studies and infrastructure improvements to adapt to changing conditions and promote resiliency. Professional Services Costs Waterfront TIF funds may be used to support consulting and professional services needed for special projects and to conduct the everyday ongoing work implementing the development program. Dredged Sediment Disposal Costs and CAD Cell Development While the dredging of piers and wharfs is considered “in-district,” disposal options for dredged sediments will all be located beyond the limits of the Waterfront TIF districts and growth areas. The City is working with State and local partners to construct a Contained Aquatic Disposal (CAD) cell in Portland Harbor to address the needs of pier dredging for both public and private piers. C. Sub-District Development Program The twenty (20) year Sub-District Development Program supports the redevelopment of the Cumberland Cold Storage 100,000+ square foot building into a Class A office building. A twenty (20) year Credit Enhancement Agreement with the property owner and developer assists with project costs. D . The Development District Property The City Council created the WREZ Ordinance (see Attachments #2, #3, and #3A) whereby any property within the geographic area, delineated on the attached map (see Revised Attachment #4), that increased in value by an amount greater than $400,000 over a two-year period would be considered for inclusion in a TIF application subject to the City Council approval. NOTE: This Amendment #3 also proposes to amend the WREZ Ordinance to expand the geographic area and rename the Ordinance the “Waterfront Development Growth Area Ordinance”, as noted on Attachment #___. 1.

Costs and Sources of Revenues The five Original TIF Districts comprise an area of approximately 3.4 acres of taxable real and personal property with an original assessed value of $6,716,410 as of March 31, 2001. The development within the Original TIF Districts is estimated to add an additional $26,221,692 of new assessed value to the City over the 30 years. The Original Development Program and this Amended Development Program provides for the new tax revenues generated by the increase in assessed value of the Original TIF Districts to be captured and designated as TIF Revenues. The City will apply the portion of retained revenues to the economic development activities described in the Amended Development Program, with the understanding that the City Council will, on an annual basis, determine which specific projects to undertake that have been outlined in the Amended Development Program. The City of Portland reserves the right to amend this Financial Plan, subject to DECD approval, to undertake a different activity that is allowable under the Amended Development Program. Attachment #10 details the projections and proposed TIF revenue allocation based upon the anticipated assessed value increases within the Amended TIF District. Attachment #10 is a projection based upon best available information and is included for demonstration purposes only. No assurances are provided as to the results reflected therein. B. Development Program Account The Original Development Program and this Amended Development Program requires establishment of a Development Program Account pledged to, and charged with, the payment of the project costs in the manner outlined in 30-A M.R.S.A. §5254 (3)(A)(2). Editor’s Note: As of 9/14/2018, attachments need to be renumbered. 13 52 of 63 9/2018 – AMENDMENT #3 TO WATERFRONT TIF: INCREASE CITY INVESTMENT OPTIONS, ADD ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, AND INCREASE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA The Waterfront TIF Development Program Account is established consisting of a project cost account (“Project Cost Account”) pledged to, and charged with, payment of project costs. The Project Cost Account shall consist of a City Cost Subaccount (the “City Cost Subaccount”) pledged to, and charged with, payment to the City for the cost of approved economic development expenses and Developer Cost Subaccount (the “Developer Cost Subaccount”) pledged to, and charged with, payment by the City under any credit enhancement agreement. C. Financing Plan The developments within the described Original TIF Districts will add approximately $26.2 million of new taxable value in the City of Portland over 30 years. TIF revenues will be allocated as described on Attachment #10 to finance the costs of this Amended Development Program. Actual payments to the Project Cost Account will be adjusted based upon the applicable annual percentage retained and the actual annual assessed value within the Districts. IV-A. Sub-District Financial Plan A. Cost and Sources of Revenue The one TIF Sub-District comprises an area of 1.55 acres of taxable real property with an original assessed value of $950,900 as of March 31, 2010. The development within the sub- district is estimated to add an additional $12,000,000 of new assessed value to the City. This Amended Development Program provides for the new tax revenues generated by the increase in assessed value of the Sub-District to be captured and designated as TIF Revenues. The City will apply the portion of retained revenues to a credit enhancement agreement with the Developer and the balance of retained revenues to the economic development activities described in this Amended Development Program, with the understanding that the City Council will, on an annual basis, determine which specific projects to undertake that have been outlined in the Amended Development Program. The City of Portland reserves the right to amend this Financial Plan, subject to DECD approval, to undertake a different activity with its allocable share of retained revenues that is allowable under the Amended Development Program.
