PROPOSAL SUMMARY
This is a two-part proposal: Part 1 describes the Southside and the
five block area requested for designation as a Tax Increment Finance
District; and Part 2 outlines a specific, one -block redevelopment project
within that area for funding approval.
(Part 1) SOUTHSIDE TIF DISTRICT — presents background
information about the Southside and identifies a specific commercial
area for designation as a tax increment financing district under
Section 99.800 et seg., RSMO, 1997 as a blighted area. To provide
the justification for this designation, the "Analysis of Conditions
Representing Blight" is included. This report was prepared by a
professional, independent planning firm; it thoroughly reviews and
documents the conditions on the Southside. The five -block
commercial section, as identified in the Analysis Report, is presented
as the TIF District to be designated under the TIF Act. On April 2,
2009, the Jefferson City TIF Commission supported the completion of
this proposal for a Tax Increment Financing District on the Southside
by the Old Town Revitalization Company. It is requested that this TIF
District remain in place for 23 years, the maximum time period
allowed by law.
(Part II) E. DUNKLIN PROJECT— details the specific redevelopment
project in the 100 block of E. Dunklin which is within the TIF
DISTRICT described in Part I. It will be shown that it is thereby
eligible to receive incremental tax revenue for necessary public
improvements. Part II presents the Dunklin Historic Commercial
Redevelopment Project as proposed by developers, Larry Kolb and
Steve Rollins. In addition to private funds, historic tax credits and city
fagade incentives are being used to renovate several buildings in the
100 block of E. Dunklin. The developers are requesting the use of
tax increment financing for public improvements and parking for the
redevelopment of the entire block. Without TIF funding, this project
cannot go forward. In February 2009, the Jefferson City TIF
Commission requested the developers to present a specific
redevelopment plan.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Based upon the results of the study, it has been recommended that the area described in the
study is a "blighted area" as such term is defined in Section 99 of the Missouri Revised Statues,
and other amendments as applicable.
This report (chapter 5) describes and documents those conditions that, without TIF or other
economic redevelopment tools or incentives, the area will further erode the economic viability of
the neighboring areas and continue its economic and social liability for the City of Jefferson City,
its residents, and the taxing districts that depend upon it as a revenue source.
In summary, the Southside Neighborhood Area suffers from a multitude of physical and
economic deficiencies including, but not limited to:
• defective or inadequate street layout,
• unsanitary or unsafe conditions,
• deterioration of site improvements,
• improper subdivision or obsolete platting,
• excessive vacant land and buildings,
• conditions which endanger life or property by fire or other causes,
• and economic obsolescence.
These conditions which endanger life and or property as described in Section 99 of the State
Statute meet the definition and of a blighted area.

FIELDWORK AND DATA GATHERING 05
This study has been assembled to comply with the scope of work and address State Statute,
specifically Section 99. The fieldwork and data gathering were conducted during site visits and
interviews occurring during the fall of 2007 with subsequent site follow-ups conducted during the
spring of 2009. In accordance with the scope of work for this project, a cursory windshield
survey was conducted of each block, parcel and building and significant portions of the site
were walked. A general visual inspection was made of all streets, curbs and sidewalks in the
area.
STUDY AREA
The subject study area is approximately four blocks south of the State Capitol Building, located
immediately south of State Route 50/63 and east of State Route 54. There are approximately
190 acres of land within the triangular shaped area.
The area is positioned immediately adjacent to the downtown district in the City of Jefferson and
the study area boundaries provide an opportunity to expand and enhance economic growth
within the shadow of the State Capitol Building.
Study Area Boundaries include:
• State Route 50/63 on the north (Rex Whitton Expressway)
• Adams Street on the east
• State Route 54 on the west
• Stadium Boulevard on the south
Contextual characteristics impacting the study area include:
• Close proximity to the Missouri State Capitol Building.
• State of Missouri government buildings and the business of government conducted
within those buildings.
• Established downtown district.
• Lincoln University.
• Two regional hospitals within the study area.
• Established businesses within the study area that attract local and transient customers.
• Potential redevelopment of an historic penitentiary property in excess of 100 acres
adding market mass and variety to the City.
• Potential development of a convention center complex immediately adjacent to the study
area.
--
• Existing floodplain around Wears Creek suitable for recreational development, or if
piped, new development sites.
Overall characteristics of the study area include its close proximity to the Missouri State Capitol
Building and other State of Missouri government buildings, all located approximately four blocks
d,
to the north of the Southside Redevelopment area. The Capital and government center adds an
important commercial and institutional element to the study area and enhances opportunities for
redevelopment within the study area.

GLOSSARY OFZONINC DESIGNATIONS
RS -4: Intended for detached, medium density, single family residential units defined as living
and uses that traditionally serve residential neighborhoods with no minimum or maximum parcel
size.
RA -2: Various dwelling types and densities as well as uses that traditionally serve residential
neighborhoods, including a minimum district size of one acre and no maximum parcel size.
C -O: Public, semi-public, institutional and professional offices surrounded by landscaping and
open space with no minimum or maximum parcel size.
C-2: Intended to accommodate general trades and commercial services not permitted in central
and neighborhood commercial districts including buffering, landscaping and open space areas
required to mitigate the impact of denser land uses, traffic activity and to provide adequate
access and traffic improvements with minimum one acre parcel sizes and with no maximum
parcel size stipulated.
EXISTING LAND USE
Land uses within the study area are complex, including conflicting commercial and industrial
uses adjacent to residential development. There are several low density commercial
developments on large, underutilized sites. Adequate parkland, recreational facilities,
community centers and open public spaces do not exist within the study area.
Generally, land use in this area follows typical patterns with commercial and industrial
investment located near and around highways and major secondary corridor frontage.
Residential development is generally located along secondary and tertiary streets. These
patterns enhance redevelopment opportunities and allow for the establishment of districts and
other methods of redevelopment without excessive disruption to existing conditions.
Commercial Development. • Commercial development consists of low rise buildings ranging
from brick structures constructed in the 1920 and 1930s to retail buildings constructed in the
1970s. These low-rise, commercial structures are well built and have zero set back lines for the
most part. Presently, these structures are occupied although vacancy is apparent in some
locations south of Dunklin Avenue. The "downtown" feel of these older brick structures is
primarily located around the Madison and Dunklin intersection, providing an image of the
commercial neighborhood prior to redevelopment that occurred later.
Residential. Residential housing in the study area consists primarily of small, single family
homes although there are larger, historic structures peppered throughout the area. Residential
structures west of Jefferson Avenue tend to be in more transition, although homes south of
Ashley on the east side of the study area are in need of an upgrade and in some cases
redevelopment.
Homes are aging and appear to be design obsolete based on discussions during public
meetings. Two bedrooms, one bath homes with small yards are prevalent. There are some
open, unimproved lots, however, for the most part; the area is populated with structures.
Some multi -family housing exists, such as apartments located on Mulberry Street. However,
the study area, as stated above, is predominately single family housing in transition.

HISTORIC PROPERTIES
There are several historically significant properties in the study area. However, not all of these
properties are registered in the National Historic Register. In the year 1999 merchants and
residents formed the Old Munichburg District to promote economic development and preserve
distinctive architecture in this area. Appendix 1.1 "Guide to Old Munichburg" is available for
reference.

ROAD INFRASTRUC-TURE Jih 5
The "Functional Classification System" is a category designation system used to identify the
design and operational standards of roadways according to their purpose and the movement of
vehicles. A higher functional classification implies higher traffic capacity, higher speeds and
typically longer traveling distances. The hierarchy of street types in descending order includes:
Primary Corridors (Freeways): provide the highest level of mobility and direct access to
property is limited
Secondary Corridors (Arterials and Collectors): represent an intermediate functional
category. They serve to provide both mobility and access
Tertiary Corridors (Local Roads): are the lowest of functional categories and have limited
mobility while providing primary access to small commercial and residential areas.
Overall, the condition of infrastructure within the study area is poor and consists of outdated
systems in need of upgrade. Secondary corridor alignment such as Monroe and Madison
Avenues narrow south of Ashley just as the topography becomes hilly. As the alignment
narrows, the condition of structures and overall market conditions begin to decline. The decline
in value is directly related to access, traffic flow, and topography combined with the age and
condition of structures.
Street Conditions Overall street conditions within the study area are in need of upgrades and
improvements. Curbs, gutters, sidewalks and lighting are all older and in need of repair. No
consideration has been given to the relationship between the infrastructure and possible
commercial use of sidewalks. For instance, parking along the curb on narrow residential streets
is allowed, making maintenance and cleaning difficult if not impossible.

NEIGHBORHOOD COMPOSITION
The makeup of the study area is complex and includes neighborhoods in decline as well as high
investment locations such as the two hospitals that dominate the study area's market strength.
Commercial development is generally located along the northern boundary of the study area
and is composed of one, two and three story commercial buildings with retail at street level and
office/residential above. Most buildings are around fifty years of age or older, and for the most
part, although dated and in some cases design obsolete.
An important focal point of existing commercial development within the area is the intersection
of Madison and Dunklin Avenues. The existing investment and market activity at this location
makes this intersection an opportunity location for immediate redevelopment.
Residential structures range from dilapidated and boarded up structures to attractive brick,
multi -story homes along tree lined streets. Several historic homes exist within the boundaries of
the area. There are a few multi -family structures, all in need of redevelopment and building
upgrades.

INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS OVERVIEW 05
The Southside Area suffers from a multitude of physical and economic deficiencies including
defective or inadequate street layout, unsanitary or unsafe conditions, deterioration of site
improvements, improper subdivision or obsolete platting, excessive vacant land and buildings,
conditions which endanger life and/or property by fire or other causes, and economic
obsolescence.
Existing conditions within the study area are impacted by physical conditions that influence the
location of investment, future land assembly, and costs associated with redevelopment in the
area. The existing conditions that exert influence on market conditions and improvements
include:
• Topography
• Floodplains
• Two state highways located on the west and north perimeters of the study area
• Aging infrastructure
• Under-utilized property
Topography, as discussed above, impacts costs, alignment placement, land assembly, soil
conditions, permitting and aesthetics.
The Wears Creek floodplain area will impact redevelopment and force the decision to keep the
floodplain and create a park environment or pipe the creek to add developable land to the study
area by doing so. The vulnerability of this area relates to St. Mary's Health Center and its
location at a much higher elevation than the remaining area. Connecting this site to other
investment is critical to its long term sustainability. The Wears Creek floodplain lies between the
hospital site and the other investment opportunities in the study area. The decision to pipe the
creek or leave it open will impact future planning and investment options for the entire Southside
Redevelopment District.
The highway system creates the potential for the isolation of the study area. Bounded by limited
access State Highway 54 on the west and State Highway 50/63 on the north, these two
alignments create physical and psychological barriers that may limit development opportunities
if access is cut off or drastically modified in any way. The isolation extends beyond the highway
configurations due to the east bound termination of many interior streets due to topographic
conditions. Should access be limited from the State Highways 54 and 50/63 interchange to
Lafayette for instance, little or no access would be available to the study area and
redevelopment opportunities would be greatly reduced.
Existing land use follows typical development patterns with commercial investment occurring
along main infrastructure corridors and multi -family and single-family housing located off main
corridors. New investment will demand upgraded and enhanced infrastructure. Therefore, in the
planning for new development, consideration to off site as well as on site infrastructure
configuration, financing, and maintenance will need to be included in designated and separately a
funded districts and in private development as well.

BLIGHT ANALYSIS SUMMARY 05
Conditions exist within the Southside Redevelopment Area that meet the blighted area definition
as outlined in Section 99 of the State Statute.
Blighted Area" — an area which, by reason of the predominance of defective or
inadequate street layout, unsanitary or unsafe conditions, deterioration of site
improvements, improper subdivision or obsolete platting, or the existence of conditions
which endanger life or property by fire and other causes, or any combination of such
factors, retards the provision of housing accommodations or constitutes an economic or
social liability or a menace to the public health, safety morals, or welfare in its present
condition and use;
Utilizing this definition, the Redevelopment Area is negatively contributing to the public health,
safety, morals and welfare and is a blighted area. Specifically, the area possesses unsanitary or
unsafe conditions, deteriorated site improvements, existence of conditions which endanger life
or property by fire or other causes.
Relevant examples include:
1. Street Layout: interrupted street grid pattern and deterioration of streets, curbs and gutters.
2. Unsanitary conditions: lack of accessible sidewalks, trash dumping and overgrown
vegetation, environmental concerns and lack of accessible entries to buildings.
3. Site Improvements: deteriorated and inadequate streets, curbs, gutters and sidewalks, poor
conditions of structures, age of structures, deteriorated site improvements including storm
drains and retaining walls.
4. Improper Subdivision & Obsolete Platting: narrow sized lots lacking sufficient depth,
irregular and inconsistent adjacent parcels and the existence of multiple ownerships that are
in -adequate for modern development.
5. Unsafe conditions: vacant and unsecured properties, potential fire hazards, and the potential
for hazardous building materials.
The result is an economically and functionally defective area that possesses area of physical
deterioration. In its current state the area will not regenerate and the problems, issues and
exceptions will remain or increase. w.
The analysis in the report discusses the conditions and illustrates the examples of a blighted
area from both physical and economic angles. The absence of new investment and or
redevelopment initiatives clearly indicates a continual negative decline

SPECIFIC BLIGHTING FACTORS 05
The Southside Redevelopment Area suffers from a series of factors resulting in blight. These
factors include defective or inadequate street layout, unsanitary and unsafe conditions,
deteriorated or inadequate site improvements, improper subdivision or obsolete platting, and '
conditions that endanger life or property.
Street Layout
At the edge of the development area, adjacent to State Route 54 on the west are streets that
are representative of an interrupted grid pattern, specifically at Mulberry/Atchison and
Washington. In addition the street grid is further interrupted along state Route 50/63 on the east
as Walnut, Mulberry and Washington connect to 50/63.
Several areas within the Redevelopment Area illustrate deterioration of streets, curbs and
gutters. Examples of these include sections of Dunklin, Jefferson and Adams where normal
maintenance has left the street condition in a deteriorated state. Several streets within the study
area have incomplete sidewalks with missing sections or lack sidewalks altogether.

Unsanitary or Unsafe Conditions
Trash dumping and overgrown vegetation is prevalent throughout both the residential and
commercial areas. These areas create potential hazards for residents, workers and visitors of
the area. Rodents and associated diseases can be fostered by such unsanitary conditions
resulting in unsafe neighborhoods.
Lack of accessible walkways and building entries exist within the study area. This is not in
compliance with the ADA and creates a hazardous condition of the public.

Inadequate or Deteriorated Site Improvements
Based on a visual survey of structures in the Area, some structures are classified as being
dilapidated or in poor condition. These structures exhibit primary elements that are necessary
components of structures, i.e. foundations, roofs, and walls that are in a deteriorated state. In
addition secondary building components on some structures were also noted as being in a
dilapidated or poor condition. These components might include windows, doors, trim, porches,
gutters, etc.

Age of Structures
As mentioned, the Redevelopment Area was predominantly subdivided more than 100 years
ago. The residential structures within the area are very old which is reflected in their condition.
Although the age of a building does not necessarily reflect a blighted situation, the general
condition and combination of issues reflected in the structures does. Older structures require
consistent maintenance and many of the structures reflect a number of areas of neglect
including roofs, walls, foundations, windows, doors, etc.
Improper Subdivision or Obsolete Platting
The Redevelopment Area was predominantly subdivided more than 70 years ago as a
residential neighborhood and hilly terrain. The lots are narrow and long. Typically these lots are
very small that would not meet modern zoning requirements. With many of these lots converting
over to multifamily or commercial usage, the lots size and lack of sufficient depth does not allow
for modern commercial development, parking adequacies for multi -family housing and adequate
green space.
Vacant and Unsecured Property
There are numerous scattered vacant lots throughout the Redevelopment Area. Most are
scattered along Dunklin Street between Mulberry and Jefferson. Another grouping of vacant lots
exists along W. Ashley Street between Washington and Monroe. Others exist throughout the
area randomly. As noted in previous photographs, overgrown vegetation on some vacant and
unsecured properties which are not maintained and are subject to debris collection and potential
hazards.
Presences of Hazardous Building Materials
While a recently completed study is not available, it would be within reason considering the age
of the neighborhood and visual observation that hazardous materials may exist. Typical of
structures constructed over the last 70 years, these hazardous materials might include asbestos
containing materials and lead base paint which if found would require rehabilitation or demolition
of such structures.

Economic Liability
While Jefferson City is a prosperous city with a vibrant economy, the Southside Neighborhood is
clearly in a slate of economic decline. The lack of investment in the area combined with the
deterioration of infrastructure points to an opportunity for redevelopment. Given the close
proximity of the Redevelopment Area to the Capital Complex and the employment center that it
is, the underutilization of the area is significant.
The Socio -Economic profile of the area contrasted against both Cole County and the City of
Jefferson as a whole illustrates economic hardship. The number of 1 person households is
nearly twice the Counties average, the median household income is nearly half of the Counties,
the vacancy rate is more than double the counties, and the renter occupied housing is also
twice the county rate.
Other factors also illustrate the lack of prosperity in the neighborhood, structures on average are
30 years older, and in general 40% of the structures were built prior to 1940.
The combination of these factors results in an economic liability for the Redevelopment Area
and the surrounding neighborhoods. The depressed economic character is expressed by the
low housing value, low income and high amounts of public assistance with housing.
Menace to Public Health, Safety, Morals or Welfare
The combination of factors constituting a blighted condition in the Southside Redevelopment
area has been discussed. In turn, the area is also a menace to the public health, safety, morals
and welfare. The overall poor condition of infrastructure in the area creates a safety condition for
residents, employees and visitors to the area. The health and safety concerns are further
exacerbated by the numerous vacant lots, unkempt properties and deterioration of structures
within the neighborhood.

CONCLUSIONS OF BLIGHT ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENOATIONS
• The Area is "blighted' per the factors established under Missouri State statute.
• The City and its residents would benefit if the Redevelopment Area were to improve its
public infrastructure.
• The Area is an excellent location for the City to promote redevelopment.
• The existing zoning could be utilized to initiate an Urban Renewal District.
• The addition of new public and or private investment in the area will increase the local
tax base in an area already serviced by city services and occupying a prominent location
near the state capital.
• Historic properties are more likely to be preserved or rehabilitated if a new URD is
created.
Based on the findings contained in this report, a recommendation that a resolution of necessity
be adopted finding that areas of blight exist within the Southside Redevelopment Area, and that
the existence of these areas substantially impairs or arrests the growth of the city or its
neighborhoods, constitutes an economic or social liability and /or is detrimental or constitutes a
menace to the public health, safety, welfare, and morals in its present condition and use, by
reason of:
• Defective or inadequate street layout identified within the study area,
• Instances of known deterioration, inadequate provisions and/or age obsolescence of the
following public improvements within the study area: streets, sidewalks and curbs and
gutters,
• Instances of age obsolescence of buildings within the study area,
• Instances of unsanitary or unsafe condition,
• Inadequate or interrupted street grid,
• & obsolete or improper subdivision.

TIF District Analysis
Arcturis evaluated the entire Southside study area to determine a logical "focal
point" to begin redevelopment. Keys to the evaluation were street connectivity
and major employment generators such as St. Marys Hospital, Capitol Complex,
Lincoln University, Capital Regional Hospital. The focal point area includes the
commercial area surrounding the intersection of Jefferson and Madison Streets
with Dunklin and Ashley Streets. This area denotes the pulse center of the
Southside from which all market demand may be served.

PART I -B: SOUTHSIDE TIF DISTRICT - DESIGNATION
TIF District Analysis 771
In addition, Arcturis indentified nine important areas for redevelopment within the
Study Area. These redevelopment areas (street intersections) were prioritized
based on funding opportunities, availability and commercial viability. The highest
two priority locations (intersections) were Dunklin & Madison Streets (A-1) and
Dunklin & Jefferson Streets (A-2).
Redevelopment Area A-1 is the existing commercial development located at
Dunklin and Madison Streets. It is characterized by vacant buildings and
declining market access. The prevalent existing conditions:
• 1960/1970 style retail development
• Inefficient building layouts
• Design obsolescence
• Lack of pedestrian access/parking
• Random signage and wayfinding
• Dated infrastructure
• Inefficient land use
• Declining land values
Redevelopment Area A-2 is the aging commercial development located at
Dunklin and Jefferson Streets is characterized as follows:
• Vacancy
Design Obsolescence
Inadequate infrastructure
• Inefficient land use
• Limited access and visibility
The properties close to the intersections of Dunklin/Jefferson and
Dunklin/Madison have been identified as an important redevelopment area.
Existing businesses establish important commercial identity and provide market
upon which to build. Constraints in the area are related to the street
configurations including the width, parking, vehicular speed and lack of
convenient pedestrian traffic at the intersections.

TIF District Zoning
Based on the above analysis of the South Side Area, the Old Town Revitalization
Company requests the following five blocks for TIF designation.:
100 Block W. Dunklin Street;
100-200 Blocks E. Dunklin Streets;
100 Block E Ashley; and
600 -700 Jefferson Street (mid -blocks)
600-700 Madison Street (mid -blocks)
This area is zoned C-2; the definition of C-2 states "intended to accommodate
general trades and commercial services not permitted in central and
neighborhood commercial districts including buffering, landscaping and open
space areas required to mitigate the impact of denser land uses, traffic activity
and to provide adequate access and traffic improvement with minimum one acre
parcel sizes and with no maximum parcel size stipulated."
The "ripeness of the area" is based on the potential for redevelopment identified
by professional analysis. All of the conditions that impact market access and
connectivity are present in this proposed Southside TIF District. It is most critical
as a "starting point" to designate and promote this district due to its important
central location and major highway linkages also described on page 7 as a focal
point for redevelopment.

PART I-8: SOUTHSIDE TIF DISTRICT - DESIGNATION
TIF District Unsafe Conditions
Over the past five years this six block area has experienced further deterioration.
This has resulted in increased calls for service in the area by city departments.
The Police, Fire and Code Enforcement departments have been called to
respond in various situations as follows:
Police Department Calls — Frequent calls for service at various retail
stores, theft, vandalism and vagrancy.
Fire Department Calls — Two significant fires due to vacancy and non-
compliance with current codes.
Code Enforcement Calls — Thirteen commercial buildings are vacant and 4
are condemned for occupancy due to significant code violations making
these structures unsafe and unfit for public/private use.

There is a total of 74 individual parcels; the current breakout according to the
County Assessor:
39 Commercial parcels (C)
19 Residential parcels (R)
11 Mixed-use parcels (C/R)
5 Exempt parcels (E)
According to a windshield survey and review of current public records, there are
thirty-two ( 32) vacant and under-utilized properties in this area. Two of these
properties have been cited by the City Code Enforcement as uninhabitable.
13 Vacant properties

With the increase of property values there will be an increase in property tax to
each political subdivision after the TIF has expired. In the intervening years the
property tax will hold steady at its existing level and will not decline. Without the
TIF, there is no incentive or mechanism for property owners and developers to
make the necessary public improvements to ensure a successful redevelopment
and the private property will not be revitalized.

PART I -B: SOUTHSIDE TIF DISTRICT - DESIGNATION
TIF District Conclusion
This five block area has been identified as the location capable of immediate
redevelopment success with the assistance of good planning and financial
incentives for redevelopment. Key to redevelopment is tax increment financing
as a tool for public improvements — sidewalks, curbs, gutters, lighting and
parking.
The proposed Southside Tax Increment Financing Area fits the statutory
definition of blighted area. It has a predominance of inadequate and unsafe
conditions (public improvements), deteriorated site improvements and the
existence of conditions which endanger life and property by fire and other
causes. These factors retard the provision of desirable housing accommodations
and constitute an economic and social liability in its present condition and use.
The conditions within this area are not conducive to redevelopment unless public
assistance through tax increment financing and other incentives are utilized.
Although some businesses in the Southside are thriving, there is a need to serve
these businesses to prevent future deterioration beyond their control. It is
necessary to re-establish retail stores and restaurants into the commercial district
to compliment the existing business development.
Although it is apparent that a larger TIF district could be requested on the
Southside, the Old Town Revitalization Company has been mindful of the
concerns of the taxing entities when very large areas are requested. This five -
block district has been selected as the "pilot" project to demonstrate to the
community the wisdom and long term community benefit of using incentives to
revitalize Old Town.
It is necessary to re-establish retail stores and restaurants into the commercial
district to compliment the existing business development. There are core
businesses that have long been established on the Southside and need to
supplement their business environment with new businesses to prevent the
spread of vacancies and the blight.
It is projected that the property values and sales tax revenues will not increase
and, in fact, may decrease over the next twenty-three years if a TIF
redevelopment is not pursued. Conversely, if redevelopment occurs the area will
improve and property values and retail sales tax collections are projected to
increase dramatically.

PROJECT
2009 TIF PROPOSAL
16
PART II: EAST DUNKLIN PROJECT - 2009 TIF PROPOSAL
E. Dunklin Project Introduction
Dunklin Street Properties, LLC is requesting approval of a proposal that provides
for the comprehensive redevelopment of the properties on the 100 Block of East
Dunklin Street as part of the South Side TIF Area described in Part I. The
developers, Lary Kolb and Steve Rollins, are requesting $525,000 in TIF
funding to make the necessary public improvements. Without TIF funding, these
developers are not willing to make the investment of private capital necessary for
the project to be completed.
This block represents an example of ideal downtown -type redevelopment
potential. Multi -story brick buildings with typical storefront space face Dunklin
Street. Redevelopment and new construction can occur to create a dense
population of buildings that provide and compliment retail and restaurant space
needs with residential space in the upper stories. The proposed redevelopment
plan for this block includes utilizing existing buildings that face the street with
access to surface parking.
The area is significantly blighted with vacant -(10) and underutilized -(7)
residential, commercial mixed use space as well as deteriorated infrastructure
and streetscape. There are thirteen (13) parcels in this block that include eleven
buildings — eight properties of which seventeen units are vacant or underutilized.
Without the Dunklin Redevelopment Project there would not be an increase in
revenue to the political subdivisions overtime. In the current situation a reduction
is likely as the property or values will continue to decline and the existing
successful business may be forced to relocate and find that they cannot continue
to survive without supplemental economic activity.

The period of significance corresponds to the construction dates of the nine
buildings which is 1892-1951. These buildings are intact representing the
European architecture characteristics of German Americans on the Southside.
According to the consultant who prepared the national register application: ""A
growing interest in historic preservation bodes well for the future of the buildings
in the Munichburg Commercial Historic District. Rehabilitation work has begun
on 124 E. Dunklin where modern brick facing has been removed from the ground
floor. Plans for full rehabilitation are underway for the rest of that building along
with the largest building in the District at 120-122 E, Dunklin." The national
register designation will enable the owners to take advantage of the federal and
state historic tax credits when restoring three of these structures. The remaining
buildings on the block are current doing an exterior facade renovation to enhance
their appearance.

PART II: EAST DUNKLIN PROJECT - 2009 TIF PROPOSAL
E. Dunklin Project Details
The planned use for the Dunklin Project area is consistent with the Jefferson City
Comprehensive Plan. The area will be redeveloped for commercial and
residential use that compliments the existing businesses. It is contemplated that
restaurants, hair salons, antique stores and other specialty shops will be
attracted to the area. The second and third floors will be utilized for residential
space in a mixed use environment.
Many structures within this Redevelopment Project are in an extreme state of
disrepair and have been neglected for many years. Currently the buildings are
vacant, deteriorated and potentially hazardous to public health. Accumulated
trash and debris contribute to unsanitary and unsafe conditions where vermin
and vector may spread disease.
Also the public parking is marginal; it is not well lit and does not provide adequate
facilities for disabled patrons. It is necessary to upgrade the existing facilities
and increase the parking spaces for future patrons and residents of the
redevelopment area. Federal stimulus funds granted to the City will be used to
renovate this space to include energy efficient lighting, resurfacing with water
permeable concrete, improved disabled parking and better erosion control from
the rear alley.
Specifically vacant and underutilized space has been identified and will be
redeveloped to active use as described below:

E. Dunklin Project Costs
The redevelopment includes the complete historic renovation of three properties
on the block — 114-116 E Dunklin, 118-122 E Dunklin, 124 E Dunklin. State and
federal historic tax credits will be utilized. The total restoration of these
properties is estimated to cost the owners $1,100,000.
The properties at 117 E Dunklin and the remainder of the southside of the block -
126 E Dunklin, 128 E Dunklin, 130 E Dunklin are planning to complete an
exterior facade upgrade estimated to cost the owners $200,000.
Adequate off-street and available parking has been included in this project to
accommodate retail and residential use. Within the block there are three parking
lots that yield 72 parking spaces and 12 on -street parking spaces. 32 more
parking will be developed on private property to accommodate customer,
residential and employee parking. Federal stimulus funds will be used to
renovate the parking lot owned by the Housing Authority at 112 E Dunklin; the
parking lot dimensions are 70'x 199'.Upgrades will include energy efficient
lighting, landscaping, resurfacing with water permeable concrete, improved
disabled parking and better erosion control from the rear alley.
The cost is estimated to be $89,000,
Tax Increment Financing dollars are needed to upgrade the parking lot at the
rear of 701-703 Jefferson Street in the same manner as described for the
Housing Authority lot at 112 E Dunklin. Also public improvements including
sidewalks, curbs, gutters, streetscape lighting/furniture and alley improvements
are necessary. The improvements are estimated to cost $525,000.
( Project costs= $505,000 + Interest costs = $20,000)

Total 2008 City & County Sales Tax (collected Jan -Dec)
The amount of funding available for the TIF Area will equal half of the increased
sales tax revenue collected in the TIF area over the basis year 2008. The Act
defines these revenues as Economic Activity Taxes or EATS. The EATS is
projected below using the following assumptions for increases in the five block
TIF Area.
The economy has strengthened after a weak year in 2008 and two new
retail stores have opened in TIF Area -auto sales and boutique. Therefore
total sales are projected to increase 10% in 2009.
The redevelopment will be completed in 2010; retail/food activity will be
established; projected increase is 25%,
100 block of E Dunklin becomes a destination and generates at least $1.4
mil in additional sales annually starting in 2011; projected increase is 49%.
TIF Area continues to improve; annual sales increase 5% each year
beginning in 2012.

BENEFITTING PROPERTIES
The remaining four properties in the redevelopment area on 100 Block of E.
Dunklin are projected to increase less significantly.
PROPERTY #1 -
PROPERTY #2 -
PROPERTY #3 -
PROPERTY #4 -
629 Jefferson St
113 E Dunklin St
117 E Dunklin St
620 Madison St
These properties are generally in good repair. They are currently fully occupied
and utilized as retail or storage space. Therefore the market value is projected to
increase 10% initially, then at the typical 2% growth rate.

PART II: DUNKLIN PROJECT — 2009 TIF PROPOSAL
E. Dunklin Project Cost -Benefit Analysis
The State of Missouri, Cole County, Jefferson City, Jefferson City School District
and other special districts will benefit from the redevelopment project. The
developer anticipates that upon completion, the development will generate new
annual sales tax revenue in 2009 in the amount of $11,238 (increment =$5,615)
then increasing significantly each year to $219,828 (increment =$109,914) in
2018. After the TIF is paid off, the entire sales tax will go to the taxing districts.
Currently the properties on the 100 Block of E. Dunklin are assessed at
$1,442,380.00 with a 2008 tax payment of $43,302.45. It is anticipated by a real
estate expert that the property values will increase by 2011; the estimates are as
follows:
703 Jefferson
116-118 E Dunklin
120-122 E Dunklin
124 E Dunklin

No taxing district in Jefferson City, Cole County would be adversely affected by
creating a TIF District. All districts would receive a windfall when the TIF is paid
in full. In 2009, before redevelopment, the following districts received a total of
$43,302.45 in property taxes. That amount was disbursed among the taxing
entities as follows: School = $30,697.95; County = $4,852.29; City = $5,221.29;
Library = $1,652.49; Handicapped = $668.84; State = 209.59. During the
period that the TIF District is being paid off, the revenue would continue. Thus,
the other taxing districts would receive the same tax revenues for subsequent
years until the TIF is dissolved and thereafter they would receive not only the
base but for the supplemental increased assessed valuation. When the TIF is
paid off, the twelve properties on the 100 block of E Dunklin would provide an
increase in tax revenue by 2019 in the amount of $54,127.

PART II: DUNKLIN PROJECT - 2009 TIF PROPOSAL
E. Dunklin Project Cost -Benefit Analysis
If property values increase from $1,442,380 to $3,324,040 as a result of this
redevelopment, the taxing entities would receive a windfall after the TIF is paid
off — nearly triple the current amount. Conversely, without this development
there would not be an increase in revenue to the political subdivisions over time
and in the current situation a reduction is likely as the property values would
continue to decline.
Other benefits of the redevelopment include increased employment with the
development of new jobs. It is anticipated that 25 short term new jobs will be
created by the public improvements included in the TIF proposal. Then after the
redevelopment is complete at least 40 new jobs will be created by the new retail
opportunities on the block. Another benefit is the return of tenants to the area
living in quality upper level living space -six -to -eight units initially will be rehabbed.
Another important benefit is the replacement and rehabilitation of the existing
streets, gutters, sidewalks and parking lots. These improvements would
probably be delayed indefinitely without private investors having this opportunity
to re -direct tax dollars into this project. Without the TIF dollars, this project would
not be possible.
