Section 4. Bond Fund, Tax Levies and Tax Increments. 4.01 Bond Fund. So long as any of the Bonds are out- standing and unpaid, the City Finance Director -Clerk shall main- tain a bond fund (the "Bond Fund") for the Bonds as a separate and special bookkeeping account on the official books and records of -the City, to be used for no purpose other than the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and such other general obligation bonds of the City, if any, as may be issued for the payment of the cost of the Project Area and any other public re- development cost of the Project Area financed by the Bonds. If the balance in the Bond Fund is ever insufficient to pay all prin- cipal and interest then due on the Bonds, the City shall neverthe- less provide sufficient money from any other funds of the City which are available for that purpose, and such other funds shall be reimbursed from the proceeds of the taxes levied for the Bond Fund. The City shall deposit in the Bond Fund all money which may at any time be received or appropriated to the payment of the Bonds and interest thereon, including the taxes levied by this resolution and the tax increments herein pledged, and the accrued interest and any amount in excess of $1,900,000 bid for the Bonds and received from the purchaser upon delivery of the Bonds and the sum of $360,000 representing interest costs during construction. 4.02 Tax Levy. The full faith and credit and taxing powers of the City are irrevocably pledged for the prompt and full payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and on all other bonds made payable from the Bond Fund, as such principal and interest become due. For that purpose there is appropriated to the Bond Fund from the proceeds of the Bonds the sum set forth in Section 4.01 for the purpose of paying interest thereon to February 1, 1983, after which it is presently estimated that the tax increments will be received in sufficient amounts to provide for the principal of and interest on the Bonds; and a direct, annual, ad valorem tax is levied upon all taxable property within the corporate limits of the City, to be spread upon the tax rolls prepared in each of the following years and collected in each of the respective ensuing years, in the following respective amounts for the Bonds: Levy Collection Levy Collection Year Year Amount Year Year Amount 1979 1980 194,850 1986 1987 215,200 1980 1981 121,850 1987 1988 224,600 1981 1982 121,300 1988 1989 232,900 1982 1983 120,800 1989 1990 240,500 1983 1984 193,700 1990 1991 247,000 1984 1985 199,800 1991 1992 257,900 1985 1986 210,600 1992 1993 267,400 1993 1994 275,800 1994 1995 277,400 The above tax levy shall be irrevocable, except that the right is reserved to reduce each annual levy in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 4.03. 4.03 Tax Increment. The County Auditor has certified that the original taxable value of real property within the Pro- ject Area according to the assessment as of January 2 , 1978, is $ 865,659.00• Under the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 462.585,Subdivision 3, the County Auditor will include only the original taxable value according to the assessment as of January 2 , 1978 in the assessed valuation upon which he computes the rate of all state, county, city, school district and other taxes, but will extend the rates so determined against the entire assessed valuation of such real property in 1979 and each subsequent year, and the County Treasurer will remit to the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Golden Valley that the proportion of the taxes paid each year on such real pro- perty within the Project Area which the excess of the assessed valuation over the original taxable value bears to such original value. The Authority has agreed to segregate the tax increments so received until the public redevelopment cost of the project, in- cluding principal and interest on the Bonds, has been paid and the City has been fully reimbursed for any principal of and interest on the Bonds which has been paid from the city-wide taxes herein levied. The Authority has pledged and appropriated the tax in- crements to the Bond Fund for the payment of such principal and interest and the reduction, cancellation and reimbursement of such taxes. In accordance with the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, the City Finance Director -Clerk shall certify annually to the County Auditor of Hennepin County the amount of tax increments and any other funds appropriated to and then held in the Bond Fund and shall request the County Auditor to reduce by the amount so certified, and if possible, to cancel, the amount of the tax levy otherwise to be included in the tax rolls next thereafter prepared.
