PRESENTATION AND DISCUSSION 2a Discussion of the FY 2022 proposed Colleyville Economic Development Corporation (CEDC) budget and the FY 2022 - 2026 Economic Development Capital Improvement Program (EDCIP) priorities Finance Director Kyle Lester provided a presentation, which gave an overview of the CEDC, highlighted 2021 projects, which included continued operations (staffing, technology), re-aligning costs with funding sources, continuance of moving eligible expenses through the fund, special events, and parks projects. Director Lester also reviewed other projects being pursued that are above what is typically budgeted, and includes an interaction with the Tax Increment Financing District (TIF). He explained the TIF district, is a legal entity established to benefit a specific commercial corridor of the City using that corridor’s tax dollars. Previously, the CEDC used some bond proceeds to pay for projects that would have otherwise been eligible to be paid for out of the TIF. As of the current fiscal year, the CEDC owed $4.775 million in principle and $645,000 in interest on those bonds, which were slated to extend into FY29. The total cost of TIF-eligible projects the TIF incurred was $5.519 million, so TIF reimbursed the CEDC in the late 2020. The CEDC used the proceeds to pay off the remainder of the bonds, savings a total of $645,000 in interest through 2029. Director Lester noted the TIF is a large part of the City’s cash-funded capital projects plan, and the cash-flow for this plan is projected to be relatively tight. He stated the budget provides for the CEDC to loan the TIF, up to $5 million to assist with that cash flow. The TIF will then pay back the CEDC by 2026. Director Lester provided a review of the CEDC budget line items, noting projects planned throughout EDCIP. He stated the sales tax projections are conservative, Colleyville Economic Development Corporation Minutes August 10, 2021 City of Colleyville Page 2 although he is confident the projection will be surpassed. Director Lester stated the item not within their contract and for which he has concern is the interest income, as interest rates are bottoming out. There was general discussion regarding the interaction of TIF with the CEDC, planned projects, and the balancing of need with restricted funds. 3. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to discuss, President Dodson adjourned the worksession without objection at 4:52 p.m. APPROVED BY A VOTE OF 6 AYES, 0 NAYS, ON THIS THE 24TH DAY OF AUGUST 2021.
