From: Jennifer Levitt, P.E., Community Development Director/City Engineer Ryan BurFeind, P.E., Project Engineer Date: December 23, 2015 Re: 2016 Pavement Management Project • Hold Public Hearing • Oder Project • Authorize Preparation of Plans and Specifications Background On July 3, 2015, the City Council authorized a feasibility report for the 2016 Pavement Management Project as outlined in the Capital Improvement Plan for the following areas: 1) F3/F5 Residential area generally bound by south of 80th Street, east of East Central Ravine Park, west of Keats Avenue, and north of 85th Street. 2) D2 Residential area generally bound by south of Pine Hill Elementary school, east of Hadley Avenue, west of Hamlet Park, and north of 95th Street. 3) 80th Street from Ideal Avenue to Jamaica Avenue. The City Council held a workshop session on November 18, 2015, to discuss the various ele- ments of the proposed improvements. At the workshop, staff presented the preliminary findings of several different tests that were completed on the existing pavement and utilities. Due to the poor pavement condition, along with good sub-grade soils and curb condition, a full pavement replacement and spot curb replacement were recommended for the F3/F5 residential area. With the poor pavement and curb condition and aging street light system, full pavement replacement and full curb replacement, along with replacement of the street light wires with conduit are pro- posed for the D2 residential area. Finally, testing and assessments completed along 80th Street found good subgrade soils and curb condition. Based on this, a full pavement replacement and spot curb replacement is proposed for 80th Street, along with repaving of the bituminous trails. A neighborhood meeting for this project was held on December 8, 2015, at 7:00 p.m. at Cottage Grove Middle School. There were 30 people in attendance. At this meeting a presentation was given highlighting the various improvements proposed for the 2016 project, along with infor- mation on the proposed assessments. On December 16, 2015, the City Council approved the feasibility report and called for a public hearing to be held on January 6, 2016. All notices and publications have been completed according to State Statute. Honorable Mayor, City Council, and Charlene Stevens 2016 Pavement Management Project December 23, 2015 December Page 2 of 4 Discussion Summarv of Road and Infrastructure Improvements The rehabilitation method proposed for the residential streets in area F3/F5 is to remove the ex- isting asphalt surFace and replace it with a new surFace, which will consist of two lifts of bitumi- nous. Spot curb replacement throughout the area will also be completed, along with spot replacement of sidewalk panels along Johansen Avenue and Joliet Avenue. Finally, minor utility improvements for sanitary sewer, water, street lights, and stormwater will also be included. The total estimated project cost for the F3/F5 residential area is $2,184,504. The potential assess- ment for the improvements listed above is estimated at $3,619.52 per residential buildable lot equivalent (RBLE). Single-family residential is assessed at a rate of 1.0 of the RBLE. Special benefit appraisals were completed for single-family residential lots in this area, which found the special benefit to single-family residential properties to be $5,000, which supports the proposed assessment of$3,619.52. The rehabilitation method proposed for the residential streets in area D2 is to remove the exist- ing asphalt surface and replace it with a new surFace, which will consist of two lifts of bitumi- nous. Due to the poor condition, full curb replacement is also proposed to be completed. A 28- inch wide surmountable curb and gutter section is proposed in place of the existing 24-inch wide surmountable curb and gutter. Due to the age of the system and reliability issues, replacement of the existing street light wires in conduit, along with replacement of feed points, is proposed for this project area. Finally, minor utility improvements for sanitary sewer, water, and stormwater will also be included within the D2 project area. Televising data that was completed for the 2016 Pavement Management project found large amounts of root intrusion into the 18-inch sanitary sewer trunk line that runs along the eastern boundary of area D2, within Hamlet Park. Based on this data, lining of the trunk sanitary line is proposed to be included in the project. Costs related to this lining project are not included as an assessable cost for area D2. The total estimated pro- ject cost for the D2 residential area is $2,245,565. The potential assessment for the improve- ments listed above is estimated at $4,757.02 per residential buildable lot equivalent (RBLE). Single-family residential is assessed at a rate of 1.0 of the RBLE. Special benefit appraisals were completed for single-family residential lots in this area and found the special benefit to single-family residential properties to be $5,100, which supports the proposed assessment of $4,757.02. The rehabilitation method proposed for 80th Street is to remove the existing asphalt surface and replace it with a new surFace, which will consist of two lifts of bituminous. Spot curb replacement will also be completed, along with repaving of the bituminous trails along 80th Street. Finally, minor utility improvements for sanitary sewer, water, street lights, and stormwater will also be included. Televising data for the utilities on 80th Street identified severe deterioration in the in- vert of the 54-inch storm sewer pipe that connects Pine Tree Valley Pond to Pine Tree Pond underneath 80th Street. Based on this data, rehabilitation of the 54-inch pipe is proposed as part of the project. To enhance safety at Fire Station #2 related to emergency vehicles pulling out onto 80th Street, an Emergency Vehicle Hybrid Beacon (EVHB) is proposed to be installed. The EVHB will look similar to a traffic signal over 80th Street, with mast arms and lights, which can be activated by authorized emergency personnel to stop traffic on 80th Street while emergency vehicles leave the station. The costs related to the 54-inch storm sewer pipe rehabilitation and Honorable Mayor, City Council, and Charlene Stevens 2016 Pavement Management Project December 23, 2015 December Page 3 of 4 the EVHB are not included as an assessable cost for 80th Street. The total estimated project cost for 80th Street is $1,590,733. There is only one residential property located within the 80th Street project area. Residential properties are not assessed for additional cost due to living on a four-lane street. With full pavement replacement and spot curb replacement proposed, the same assessment as F3/F5 is proposed in the amount of $3,619.52. A special benefit appraisal was completed for this resi- dential property and found the special benefit to be $6,100, which supports the proposed assessment of $3,619.52. Per the City's special assessment policy, the assessment amount for religious institutions is computed as 75 percent of the improvement costs for streets adjacent to the property. The assessment calculation for the Church of St. Rita provided an assessment amount of $87,771.18. The special benefit appraisal for the Church of St. Rita found the benefit to the property to be $36,700, so the assessment is capped at the special benefit amount. The special benefit appraisal for Crossroads Church found no benefit to the property as there is no direct access to 80th Street. Oakwood Park Improvements Improvements to Oakwood Park are also included in the 2016 Pavement Management Project scope. The improvements include reconstruction and expansion of the parking lot with curb and gutter, realignment of the entrance drive, and construction of sewer and water services into the park. Completion of these improvements is contingent upon the hotel RFP that is currently out for the vacant parcel adjacent to Oakwood Park. The total costs for these improvements is esti- mated at $360,000. Per the special assessment policy, park improvements are not included as an assessable project cost. Proiect Fundinq Analvsis The total project cost for the road work, utility, and park improvements is $6,415,019. According to the City's policy, 45 percent of the total project cost for road work and utilities is assessed against the benefiting residential properties, and 75 percent of the total cost is assessed against benefiting religious institutions. The total project value that is assessed is $1,821,319. The Cost Estimate Summary can be viewed in Appendix C of the Feasibility Report. Proiect Option Discussion Option #1: Order the project as outlined in the feasibility report. Total estimated project cost— $6,415,019 Total anticipated assessments —$1,821,319 The benefit of proceeding with the project is that soliciting for bids this winter will provide a stable bidding environment, which reduces the burden to the general taxpayers and the resi- dents adjacent to the project who are paying assessments. Another result of the new pavement is reduced maintenance costs associated with the streets in the project area. Those mainte- nance dollars and resources can then be reallocated to other parts of the community, which is a greater benefit to the general taxpayer. There are also similar benefits related to the repairs to the utilities in the project area. Honorable Mayor, City Council, and Charlene Stevens 2016 Pavement Management Project December 23, 2015 December Page 4 of 4 The CIP outlines a fiscally responsible plan to rehabilitate roads and utilities within the commu- nity and provide for park improvements. Past policy is to do park improvements/upgrades with the neighborhood street and utility improvements. By ordering the project, those plans stay true to that document and the Council's direction given in the development of the CIP. Option #2: Do not order the project as outlined in the feasibility report. If the improvements related to the 2016 Pavement Management Project are not ordered, the roads will continue to deteriorate, which will result in increased maintenance costs. Those costs are borne by all taxpayers, not just the property owners that live on those streets. Future project costs will also be increased by 2.5 percent to 8 percent annually as a result of the construction index. When a pavement management project is delayed, it creates a domino effect by delaying all future pavement management projects. The cost of the domino effect is hard to capture, since there are pavement management projects planned each year into the future. The City's approach since 1994 has been to ensure a safe condition and preserve the structural integrity of roads in a fiscally responsible manner. Independent third party benefit appraisals conducted since 2007 have concluded that this program improves property values within the project areas, as compared to the existing deteriorated condition. It should be noted to Council per Minnesota State Statute 429.031 that the resolution must be adopted by four-fifths vote for the project to be ordered and the project to proceed. Recommendation It is recommended the City Council adopt a resolution ordering the 2016 Pavement Manage- ment project and authorize preparation of plans and specifications for D2, F3, F5, 80th Street, and Oakwood Park.

Aggregate Base: Silty sand with gravel Depth: 9” Classification: A- Appendix C Pavement Report Limitations and Guidelines for Use AET Project No.28-01026 C.2.5 Most Pavement Findings Are Professional Opinions Site exploration identified subsurface conditions only at those points where subsurface tests are conducted ar samples are taken. Pavement engineers review field and laboratory data and then apply their professional judgment to render an opinion about subsurface conditions throughout the site. Actual subsurface conditions may differ, soinetimes significantly, from those indicated in your report. Retaining the pavement engineer who developed your report to provide construction observation is the most effective method of managing the risks associated with unanticipated conditions. C.2.6 A Pavement Engineering Report Is Subject to Misinterpretation Other design team members' misinterpretation of pavement engineering reports has resulted in costly problems. Lower that risk by having your paveinent engineer confer with appropriate members of the design team after submitting the report.Also retain your pavement engineer to review pertinent elements of tl�e design , teain's plans and specifications. Contractors can also misinterpret a pavement engineering report. Reduce that risk by having your pavement engineer participate in prebid and preconstruction conferences,and by providing construction observation. C.2.7 Do Not Redraw the Engineer's Logs Pavement engineers prepare fmal boring and testing logs based upon their interpretation of field logs and laboratory data. To prevent errors or omissions, the logs included in a pavement engineering report should never be redrawn for inclusion in architectural or other design drawings. Only photographic or electronic reproduction is acceptable,but recognizes that separating logs from the report can elevate risk. C.2.8 Give Contractors a Complete Report and Guidance Some owners and design professionals mistakenly believe they can make contractors liable for unanticipated subsurface conditions by limiting what they provide for bid preparation.To help prevent costly problems, give contractors the complete pavement engineering report,but preface it with a clearly written letter of transmittal. In the letter, advise contractors that the report was not prepared for purposes of bid development and that the report's accuracy is limited; encourage them to confer with the pavement engineer who prepared the report(a modest fee may be required)and/or to conduct additional study to obtain the specific types of information they need or prefer. A prebid conference can also be valuable. Be sure contractors have sufficient time to perform additional study. Only then might you be in a position to give contractors the best information available to you, while requiring them to at least share some of the fmancial responsibilities stemming from unanticipated conditions. C.2.9 Read Responsibility Provisions Closely Some clients,design professionals,and contractors do not recognize that pavement engineering is far less exact than other engineering disciplines. This lack of understanding has created unrealistic expectations that have led to disappointments, claims, and disputes. To help reduce the risk of such outcomes, pavement engineers commonly include a variety of explanatory provisions in their report. Sometimes labeled"limitations"many of these provisions indicate where pavement engineers' responsibilities begin and end, to help others recognize their own responsibilities and risks. Read these provisions closely. Ask questions. Your pavement engineer should respond fully and frankly. C.2.10 Geoenvironmental Concerns Are Not Covered The equipment,techniques, and personnel used to perform a geoenvironmental study differ significantly from those used to perform a pavement study. For that reason,a pavement engineering report does not usually relate any geoenvironmental fmdings, conclusions, or recommendations; e.g., about the likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or regulated contaminants. Unanticipated environmental problems have led to numerous project failures. If you have not yet obtained your own geoenvironmental information, ask your pavement consultant for risk management guidance. Do not rely on an environmental report prepared for someone else.

This appraisal is presented in a format, in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. The purpose of the appraisal is to provide an opinion of the increase in market value, if any, to the subject properties as a consequence of the new street and utility improvements to be completed in 2016. The opinion of the value benefits resulting from the public improvement project is as of October 26, 2015, the date of inspection of the project area and subject properties. The intended use of the appraisal is for assisting city officials in levying in an equitable manner special assessments to properties benefited by the improvement project. The intended users of the appraisal are City of Cottage Grove officials. The project area encompasses several residential neighborhoods located west of th County Road 19/Keats Avenue, south of 80 Street South. The streets to be rehabilitated and the proposed improvements are detailed within this report. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. 1600 UNIVERSITY AVENUE, SUITE 314, ST. PAUL, MN 55104 651.646.6114 FAX 651.646.8086 www.brkw.com The value benefits, if any, of street, utility and other such public improvements accrue to the land component of a property, not to the value of buildings and other improvements on the land. Consequently, this special benefits analysis is limited to the valuation of only the land components of the properties appraised. The before-and-after valuation methodology has been used in this appraisal, which analyzes the market value of the subject land prior to the proposed project in relation to the market value of the land after the project is completed. The difference between the before and after opinions of land value reflects the value of special benefits. In our opinion, the special value benefits to the subject properties resulting from completion of the 2016 Pavement Management Project as of October 26, 2015 are as follows: City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project Project Area 2 - District F-3 & F-5 Value Benefit Conclusions AddressOpinion of Special Benefit Tax Parcel I.D.

This hypothetical condition reflects a applied in this appraisal. This appraisal assignment is not based on a requested minimum valuation or a specific valuation for approval of a loan. The opinions of market value and special benefits in the appraisal were developed independent of any undue influence. The appraised values assume all real estate taxes and special assessment balances, if any, have been paid in full. The values are gross values with no allowances made for brokerage commissions, real estate taxes or other carrying costs associated with a property during its marketing period. The values are based on an exposure time of six to twelve months. 2 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC.

Project maps herein depict the area of the proposed improvements. The project is referred to as the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project. Per agreement between the client and the appraisers, three representative urban single- family residential properties and one rural residential property located in the area of the proposed improvements project are appraised in this report. The opinions of special benefits, if any, accruing to the appraised properties as a result of the project will be used by the client in determining the appropriate assessments to be levied against other properties within the project area. 3 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE Since the benefits of public improvement projects such as street rehabilitation accrue to the land component of properties only, the valuation in this report involves land only. Opinions of the market value of the subject property land components have been developed in this appraisal using the Direct Sales Comparison Approach. The Direct Sales Comparison Approach involves the comparison and analysis of land parcels recently sold which are similar to the subject land. The application of the Cost and Income Approaches typically applies only when a property valuation includes buildings and other improvements having contributory value. The subject land parcels are valued before and after completion of the proposed street and utility improvements. The difference between the before and after opinions of market value is the special benefit value attributable to the proposed project. restricted appraisal reportformat This report is presented in a in compliance with the reporting requirements of Standards Rule 2-2 (b) of the Uniform Standards of Appraisal Practice (USPAP). The results of the analysis and the conclusions pertaining to the market value of the subject property are presented in an abbreviated manner in this report, at a level of detail sufficient for the needs of the intended user, which is the client. Additional notes, analyses, and supporting data are retained in the in this report may not be understood properly without additional information in the identified herein. COMPETENCY PROVISION Paul J.

See Contingent and Limiting Conditions, which are standard assumptions that apply to the appraisal, later in this report. MARKET VALUE DEFINITION Market Value as defined by the United States Department of the Treasury through the Comptroller of the Currency and the Office of Thrift Supervision is: The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgeably and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: buyer and seller are typically motivated; both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what he considers his own best interest; a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale. This definition is also recognized by the Appraisal Foundation and is part of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). 5 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC.

PAGE DESCRIPTION OF SUBJECT PROPERTIES Neighborhood The subject properties are located within a residential neighborhood in the east-central part of Cottage Grove. Primary access into the area is provided by County Road 19/Keats Avenue, which interchanges with Highway 10/61 approximately two miles south. The oldest homes in the neighborhood, typically dating from the late 1980s through the early 1990s, are located in the west sector. The newest homes, built in the early to mid 1990s, are generally in the eastern portion of the neighborhood.

PAGE DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE Streets The streets in the project area are urban-residential design and were originally constructed between the late 1980s through the early 1990s, as depicted in the exhibit on the following page. Generally, the streets are 32 feet wide from face of curb to face of curb with concrete curb and gutter. The Pavement Condition Index (PCI) of the streets generally ranges from 40 to 50 on a scale of 1 to 100. Project area pavements in that range are considered to be in fair condition and generally exhibit significant or major distress. A PCI map is on a following page. In addition, sections of the existing curb and gutter have settled, cracked, or have other defects which require replacement. Coring of the pavement has shown that on average the thickness of the existing streets is approximately 4 inches of bituminous over 10 inches of base. However, throughout the project area, streets have extensive cracking, as well as stripping. The stripping degrades the strength and durability of the pavement. In order to alleviate some of the major distressed areas, the city has performed temporary patching. Due to the granular subgrade soils and good aggregate base, the pavement structure as a whole is typically structurally sound. th Walkway Located along the west side of Joliet Avenue between 80 Street and Johansen Avenue and along the north and west sides of Johansen Avenue is a 6-foot- wide concrete sidewalk. The sidewalk has approximately eight panels that are cracked. In addition, the pedestrian ramps are non-compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Sanitary Sewer The sanitary sewer within the project area consists primarily of 8- inch diameter VCP, PVC, and DIP. The sanitary sewer was televised to evaluate pipe condition, and the results indicate that the pipe is generally in good condition. Some problems encountered during the televising were root intrusion, cracked pipe and sags. Also, noticed during the inspection were miscellaneous repairs including patching and lining. Water Main The water mains within the project area consist of 6, 8, and 18-inch diameter DIP. In the project area, the 18-inch trunk main extends along Jocelyn th Avenue from 80 Street to Jody Avenue, along Jody Avenue from Jocelyn Avenue to Johansen Avenue, and along Johansen Avenue from Jody Avenue to approximately 125 lineal feet south, then extending west through city green space. The water mains are believed to be in good condition. However, projects of similar eras have had instances of excessive bolt corrosion on valves. Storm Sewer The storm sewer was televised to evaluate pipe condition. In addition, storm structures were also inspected. Generally, the storm sewer mains are in good condition. Some issues encountered in the storm sewer were cracked or broken pipes and dirty lines. 8 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC.

B DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS Streets Based on the deteriorated condition of the existing paving, types of distress present and the anticipated deterioration due to asphalt stripping, the streets within the project area are proposed to undergo a full pavement removal and replacement with 3.5 inches of new pavement. The wear course will be a virgin mix, excluding the use of recycled asphalt pavement. Existing concrete curb and gutter will undergo spot replacement. The curb in poor condition will be evaluated for removal just prior to construction, but preliminary estimates indicate that approximately 35% will need to be removed and replaced. Traffic signs will be replaced to meet federal retroreflectivity requirements. Also as part of the project, the existing street light system will be evaluated for repair, and where spot curb replacement is needed, the existing direct-bury street light wire will be replaced within a PVC conduit. Walkway The eight cracked concrete sidewalk panels will be replaced. Additional sidewalk panels will also be removed and replaced with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant pedestrian ramps. Sanitary Sewer Inline repairs will be made to address cracks in the pipe. In areas where there are sags, the pipe will be removed and replaced. In addition, the manhole castings will be salvaged and reinstalled, and the concrete adjusting rings will be replaced with new high density polyethylene adjusting rings. Water Main As part of the project, broken valve top sections will be removed and replaced. Also, small samples of valves will be dug up and checked for bolt corrosion during the early phase of the project prior to the street work. Any corroded bolts will be replaced, and additional valves with like conditions would be dug up and checked. As a part of the process, valve boxes will be replaced in conjunction with the work. In addition, hydrant barrels will be extended on any hydrant requiring adjustments, and hydrants will be reconditioned via sandblasting and painting. Storm Sewer For the most part, the project is intended to rehabilitate the streets and not change existing drainage patterns. Where there are cracks and leaking or offset joints, in-line repairs will be made. Structures in poor condition will be replaced. Adjustment rings for manholes will be replaced with high density polyethylene rings; catch basin rings will not be replaced unless the curb adjacent to them is removed, or the ring has failed. The existing casings will be salvaged and reinstalled. Miscellaneous patching, lining, and other repairs will be performed as needed. 11 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC.

Highest and Best Use After Street Improvements After the street improvements, the highest and best use of all of the subject properties remains the same relative to the before improvements position. 12 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE SPECIAL BENEFIT CONSIDERATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS 1. Before the proposed improvements, the streets in the project area are relatively old and deteriorated. It can be anticipated that further deterioration will result in a worsening of problems associated with advanced age, including accelerated asphalt stripping, improper drainage, uneven driving surfaces, increased formation of potholes, etc. 2. The condition and quality of streets and utilities serving and fronting commercial, residential and other properties influences the value, curb appeal and general desirability of the properties. 3. The proposed rehabilitation of roads serving the subject properties will substantially improve the safety, convenience and general appeal of access into and out of the subject properties. The project will reverse the deteriorating state of the existing streets and result in new surfacing, and in some areas, replacement of deteriorated concrete curb and gutter. 4. Safety aspects for vehicles traveling on a rehabilitated street are enhanced by the elimination of potholes, cracks, etc. Street icing problems are reduced as water is more efficiently diverted off the roadway surface that could otherwise collect in the deteriorated street areas during frost seasons. 5. The proposed repairs and minor replacements, as necessary, of water main, sanitary sewer and storm sewer utility components in the project area will preempt potential major problems and disruptions in these systems, as well as extend the life of this infrastructure, deferring the need for total replacement to a significantly later point in time. 6. The proposed project improvements in some areas may result in some general benefit to neighborhoods and properties beyond the immediate subject neighborhoods. However, a significant amount of benefit resulting from the project is special, attaching to the properties directly fronting and accessing the rehabilitated street, including the subject properties. 7. The land value increase for each property, on a percentage basis as well as on a per-square-foot basis and a per-front-foot basis, resulting from the street and utility improvements can vary, and in this appraisal they do vary in some cases. This is due to differences among the properties in parcel land value, parcel size, parcel configuration, amount of street frontage, and/or number of fronting streets. 13 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE SPECIAL BENEFIT ANALYSIS PROCESS Arriving at an opinion of special value benefits accruing to each of the subject properties as a result of completion of the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project is accomplished by developing "before improvements" and "after improvements" opinions of market value for each of the subject land parcels. The improvements on the land are concluded to have the same value contributions to the total property value in both the "before and after" improvements positions. Consequently, the extent of special value benefits from the public improvements project can be reliably derived by analyzing the value of the land only, by processing the Direct Sales Comparison Approach. The Direct Sales Comparison Approach was applied in valuing the subject properties. This approach involves the comparison of recently sold land parcels similar to the subject properties. The comparable sale prices are analyzed and adjustments are made for value-related differences relative to the subject properties. The result of the analysis and adjustments is the generation of a range of value indications for the subject land. The strengths and weaknesses of each comparable sale and its value indication are evaluated before arriving at a final value opinion for the subject land parcel. office work file for this assignment are market data, notes and other supporting information pertaining to the processing of the Direct Sales Comparison Approach in a before-and-after land value analysis for each of the subject properties. Shown below is the result of these analyses, presenting the opinion of the special benefit values as of October 26, 2015 resulting from the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project.

This appraisal is presented in a format, in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. The purpose of the appraisal is to provide an opinion of the increase in market value, if any, to the subject properties as a consequence of the new street and utility improvements to be completed in 2016. The opinion of the value benefits resulting from the public improvement project is as of October 26, 2015, the date of inspection of the project area and subject properties. The intended use of the appraisal is for assisting city officials in levying in an equitable manner special assessments to properties benefited by the improvement project. The intended users of the appraisal are City of Cottage Grove officials. The project area encompasses a residential neighborhood located east of Hadley th Avenue South, north of 95 Street South. The streets to be rehabilitated and the proposed improvements are detailed within this report. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. 1600 UNIVERSITY AVENUE, SUITE 314, ST. PAUL, MN 55104 651.646.6114 FAX 651.646.8086 www.brkw.com The value benefits, if any, of street, utility and other such public improvements accrue to the land component of a property, not to the value of buildings and other improvements on the land. Consequently, this special benefits analysis is limited to the valuation of only the land components of the properties appraised. The before-and-after valuation methodology has been used in this appraisal, which analyzes the market value of the subject land prior to the proposed project in relation to the market value of the land after the project is completed. The difference between the before and after opinions of land value reflects the value of special benefits. In our opinion, the special value benefits to the subject properties resulting from completion of the 2016 Pavement Management Project as of October 26, 2015 are as follows: City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project Project Area 1 - District D-2 Value Benefit Conclusions AddressOpinion of Special Benefit Tax Parcel I.D.

Project maps herein depict the area of the proposed improvements. The project is referred to as the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project. Per agreement between the client and the appraisers, three representative urban single- family residential properties located in the area of the proposed improvements project are appraised in this report. The opinions of special benefits, if any, accruing to the appraised properties as a result of the project will be used by the client in determining the appropriate assessments to be levied against other properties within the project area. 3 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE Since the benefits of public improvement projects such as street rehabilitation accrue to the land component of properties only, the valuation in this report involves land only. Opinions of the market value of the subject property land components have been developed in this appraisal using the Direct Sales Comparison Approach. The Direct Sales Comparison Approach involves the comparison and analysis of land parcels recently sold which are similar to the subject land. The application of the Cost and Income Approaches typically applies only when a property valuation includes buildings and other improvements having contributory value. The subject land parcels are valued before and after completion of the proposed street and utility improvements. The difference between the before and after opinions of market value is the special benefit value attributable to the proposed project. restricted appraisal reportformat This report is presented in a in compliance with the reporting requirements of Standards Rule 2-2 (b) of the Uniform Standards of Appraisal Practice (USPAP).

MARKET VALUE DEFINITION Market Value as defined by the United States Department of the Treasury through the Comptroller of the Currency and the Office of Thrift Supervision is: The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgeably and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: buyer and seller are typically motivated; both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what he considers his own best interest; a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale. This definition is also recognized by the Appraisal Foundation and is part of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). 5 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC.

PAGE DESCRIPTION OF SUBJECT PROPERTIES Neighborhood The subject properties are located within a residential neighborhood in the west- central part of Cottage Grove. Primary access into the area is provided by U.S. th Highway 10/61 at its interchanges with Jamaica Avenue South and 80 Street South. The oldest homes in the neighborhood, typically dating from the late 1970s, are located in the northwest sector. The newest homes, built in the late 1980s and early 1990s, are generally in the south and southeast portions of the neighborhood.

PAGE DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE Streets The streets in the project area are urban-residential design and were originally constructed between the late 1970s through the early 1990s, as depicted in the exhibit on the following page. Generally, the streets are 32 feet wide from face of curb to face of curb with concrete curb and gutter. The Pavement Condition Index (PCI) of the streets generally ranges from 40 to 50 on a scale of 1 to 100. Project area pavements in that range are considered to be in fair condition and generally exhibit significant or major distress. A PCI map is on a following page. In addition, sections of the existing curb and gutter have settled, cracked, or have other defects which require replacement. Coring of the pavement has shown that on average the thickness of the existing streets is approximately 4 inches of bituminous over 10 inches of base. However, throughout the project area, streets have extensive cracking, as well as stripping. The stripping degrades the strength and durability of the pavement. In order to alleviate some of the major distressed areas, the city has performed temporary patching. Due to the granular subgrade soils and good aggregate base, the pavement structure as a whole is typically structurally sound. Sanitary Sewer The sanitary sewer within the project area consists primarily of 8- inch diameter VCP, PVC, and DIP. The sanitary sewer was televised to evaluate pipe condition, and the results indicate that the pipe is generally in good condition. Some problems encountered during the televising were root intrusion, cracked pipe and sags. Also, noticed during the inspection were miscellaneous repairs including patching and lining. Water Main The water mains within the project area consist of 6, 8, and 18-inch nd diameter DIP. In the project area, an 18-inch trunk main extends along 92 Street nd from the 0.5 MG Pinehill tower (located just north of 92 Street) to Hadley Avenue, ndth and along Hale Avenue from 92 Street to Lower 94 Street, and through greenspace thth from Lower 94 Street to 95 Street. The water mains are believed to be in good condition. However, projects of similar eras have had instances of excessive bolt corrosion on valves. Storm Sewer The storm sewer was televised to evaluate pipe condition. In addition, storm structures were also inspected. Generally, the storm sewer mains are in good condition. Some issues encountered in the storm sewer were cracked or broken pipes and dirty lines. In the project area, eight storm structures are beyond the point of being patched or repaired. 8 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE 9 PAGE Year Constructed Streets Map 9456 Harkness Ct.

The wear course will be a virgin mix, excluding the use of recycled asphalt pavement. Existing concrete curb/gutter and concrete pads for community mailboxes will undergo full replacement as well. Traffic signs will be replaced to meet federal retroreflectivity requirements. In addition, the street light system will be evaluated for repair, and the existing direct-bury street light wire will be replaced within a PVC conduit. Sanitary Sewer Inline repairs will be made to address cracks in the pipe. In areas where there are sags, the pipe will be removed and replaced. In addition, the manhole castings will be salvaged and reinstalled, and the concrete adjusting rings will be replaced with new high density polyethylene adjusting rings. Water Main As part of the project, broken valve top sections will be removed and replaced. Also, small samples of valves will be dug up and checked for bolt corrosion during the early phase of the project prior to the street work. Any corroded bolts will be replaced, and additional valves with like conditions would be dug up and checked. As a part of the process, valve boxes will be replaced in conjunction with the work. Hydrant barrels will be extended on any hydrant requiring adjustments, and hydrants will be reconditioned via sandblasting and painting. In addition, the access drive to the 0.5MG Pinehill Tower is proposed to be repaired. Storm Sewer For the most part, the project is intended to rehabilitate the streets and not change existing drainage patterns. Where there are cracks and leaking or offset joints, in-line repairs will be made. Structures in poor condition will be replaced. Adjustment rings for manholes will be replaced with high density polyethylene rings; catch basin rings will not be replaced unless the curb adjacent to them is removed, or the ring has failed. The existing casings will be salvaged and reinstalled. Miscellaneous patching, lining, and other repairs will be performed as needed. 11 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC.

Highest and Best Use After Street Improvements After the street improvements, the highest and best use of all of the subject properties remains the same relative to the before improvements position. 12 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE SPECIAL BENEFIT CONSIDERATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS 1. Before the proposed improvements, the streets in the project area are relatively old and deteriorated. It can be anticipated that further deterioration will result in a worsening of problems associated with advanced age, including accelerated asphalt stripping, improper drainage, uneven driving surfaces, increased formation of potholes, etc. 2. The condition and quality of streets and utilities serving and fronting commercial, residential and other properties influences the value, curb appeal and general desirability of the properties. 3. The proposed rehabilitation of roads serving the subject properties will substantially improve the safety, convenience and general appeal of access into and out of the subject properties. The project will reverse the deteriorating state of the existing streets and result in new surfacing, and in some areas, together with replacement of all concrete curb and gutter. 4. Safety aspects for vehicles traveling on a rehabilitated street are enhanced by the elimination of potholes, cracks, etc. Street icing problems are reduced as water is more efficiently diverted off the roadway surface that could otherwise collect in the deteriorated street areas during frost seasons. 5. The proposed repairs and minor replacements, as necessary, of water main, sanitary sewer and storm sewer utility components in the project area will preempt potential major problems and disruptions in these systems, as well as extend the life of this infrastructure, deferring the need for total replacement to a significantly later point in time. 6. The proposed project improvements in some areas may result in some general benefit to neighborhoods and properties beyond the immediate subject neighborhoods. However, a significant amount of benefit resulting from the project is special, attaching to the properties directly fronting and accessing the rehabilitated street, including the subject properties. 7. The land value increase for each property, on a percentage basis as well as on a per-square-foot basis and a per-front-foot basis, resulting from the street and utility improvements can vary, and in this appraisal they do vary in some cases. This is due to differences among the properties in parcel land value, parcel size, parcel configuration, amount of street frontage, and/or number of fronting streets. 13 BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE SPECIAL BENEFIT ANALYSIS PROCESS Arriving at an opinion of special value benefits accruing to each of the subject properties as a result of completion of the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project is accomplished by developing "before improvements" and "after improvements" opinions of market value for each of the subject land parcels. The improvements on the land are concluded to have the same value contributions to the total property value in both the "before and after" improvements positions. Consequently, the extent of special value benefits from the public improvements project can be reliably derived by analyzing the value of the land only, by processing the Direct Sales Comparison Approach. The Direct Sales Comparison Approach was applied in valuing the subject properties. This approach involves the comparison of recently sold land parcels similar to the subject properties. The comparable sale prices are analyzed and adjustments are made for value-related differences relative to the subject properties. The result of the analysis and adjustments is the generation of a range of value indications for the subject land. The strengths and weaknesses of each comparable sale and its value indication are evaluated before arriving at a final value opinion for the subject land parcel. file for this assignment are market data, notes and other supporting information pertaining to the processing of the Direct Sales Comparison Approach in a before-and-after land value analysis for each of the subject properties. Shown below is the result of these analyses, presenting the opinion of the special benefit values as of October 26, 2015 resulting from the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project.

This appraisal is presented in a Restricted Appraisal Report format, in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. The purpose of the appraisal is to provide an opinion of the increase in market value, if any, to the subject properties as a consequence of the new street and utility improvements to be completed in 2016. The opinion of the value benefits resulting from the public improvement project is as of October 26, 2015, the date of inspection of the project area and subject properties. The intended use of the appraisal is for assisting city officials in levying in an equitable manner special assessments to properties benefited by the improvement project. The intended users of the appraisal are City of Cottage Grove officials. The project area is a segment of 80t'' Street South between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South. This street segment to be rehabilitated and the proposed improvements are detailed within this report. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. 1600 UNIVERSITY AVENUE,SUITE 314,ST. PAUL,MN 55104 651.646.6114 FAX 651.646.8086 www.brkw.com The value benefits, if any, of street, utility and other such public improvements accrue to the land component of a property, not to the value of buildings and other improvements on the land. Consequently, this special benefits analysis is limited to the valuation of only the land components of the properties appraised. The before-and-after valuation methodology has been used in this appraisal, which analyzes the market value of the subject land prior to the proposed project in relation to the market value of the land after the project is completed. The difference between the before and after opinions of land value reflects the value of special benefits. In our opinion, the special value benefits to the subject properties resulting from completion of the 2016 Pavement Management Project as of October 26, 2015 are as follows: City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project Project Area 3 - 80th Street South, Between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South Value Benefit Conclusions Address Tax Parcel LD.

This reflects a hypothetical condition applied in this appraisal. This appraisal assignment is not based on a requested minimum valuation or a specific valuation for approval of a loan. The opinions of market value and special benefits in the appraisal were developed independent of any undue influence. The appraised values assume all real estate taxes and special assessment balances, if any, have been paid in full. The values are gross values with no allowances made for brokerage commissions, real estate taxes or other carrying costs associated with a property during its marketing period. The values are based on an exposure time of six to twelve months. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC.

Multiple Tax Parcel Properties It is noted that for the purposes of valuation, one of the three properties above includes more than one tax parcel. Proper real estate appraisal methodology requires identifying the "larger parcel," which is the aggregate property that possesses 1) unity of ownership, 2) unity of location (typically contiguity), and 3) unity of use, as it relates to the highest and best use of commonly owned, contiguous parcels. Propert� — The "larger parcel" rule applies to this property, comprising two adjoining tax parcels under common ownership which together form one site supporting the church building. Since the two tax parcels form one site, and since the land, if vacant, would be approached as one site for the purposes of developing it to its highest and best use, they are treated as one property in the valuation.

PAGE 2 PURPOSE/INTENDED USE OF THE APPRAISAL/INTENDED USERS The purpose of the appraisal is to provide an opinion of the increase in market value, if any, to the subject properties as a consequence of the proposed City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project. The intended use of the appraisal is for assisting city officials in levying in an equitable manner special assessments to properties benefited by the improvement project. The intended users of the report are City of Cottage Grove officials. PROPERTY RIGHTS APPRAISED The property rights appraised are those of the fee simple estate. ZONING Property Zoning District 1. 8694 80th Street South R-3, Single-Family Residential District 2. 7955 Ivystone Avenue South R-3, Single-Family Residential District 3. 8726 80th Street South R-3, Single-Family Residential District SCOPE OF WORK The City of Cottage Grove is proposing to rehabilitate 80t'' Street South between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South. Project maps herein depict the area of the proposed improvements. The project is referred to as the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project. Per agreement between the client and the appraisers, three properties located in the area of the proposed improvements project are appraised in this report. The opinions of special benefits, if any, accruing to the appraised properties as a result of the project will be used by the client in determining the appropriate assessments to be levied against the subject properties. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE 3 Since the benefits of public improvement projects such as street rehabilitation accrue to the land component of properties only, the valuation in this report involves land only. Opinions of the market value of the subject property land components have been developed in this appraisal using the Direct Sales Comparison Approach and, where applicable, the Development Cost Approach. The Direct Sales Comparison Approach involves the comparison and analysis of land parcels recently sold which are similar to the subject land. The Development Cost Approach addresses the net present value of land that can be subdivided and developed into multiple parcels, by deducting from total retail lot value potential the costs of development and profit requirements of the developer. The application of the Cost and Income Approaches typically applies only when a property valuation includes buildings and other improvements having contributory value. The subject land parcels are valued before and after completion of the proposed street and utility improvements. The difference between the before and after opinions of market value is the special benefit value attributable to the proposed project. This report is presented in a restricted appraisal report format in compliance with the reporting requirements of Standards Rule 2-2 (b) of the Uniform Standards of Appraisal Practice (USPAP). The results of the analysis and the conclusions pertaining to the market value of the subject property are presented in an abbreviated manner in this report, at a level of detail sufficient for the needs of the intended user, which is the client. Additional notes, analyses, and supporting data are retained in the appraiser's office work file. The rationale for the opinions and conclusions stated in this report may not be understood properly without additional information in the appraiser's work file. The report is intended to be read and used only by the client identified herein. COMPETENCY PROVISION Paul J. Gleason, MAI has been a full time professional real estate appraiser since 1992. Mark A.

Comments: A hypothetical condition in this appraisal is it is assumed, for the purposes of special benefits valuation, that on the effective date of valuation of October 26, 2015, in the before position 80t'' Street South between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South, in front of the subject properties was in its pre-improved state (old, worn and deteriorated) and later on that day, in the after position, the street rehabilitation had been completed. In actuality, the rehabilitation process had not begun on that date, but is rather planned to be completed in 2016. Applying the hypothetical condition assuming project completion in the "after" position facilitates completing a before-and-after valuation as of the effective date of valuation. See Contingent and Limiting Conditions, which are standard assumptions that apply to the appraisal, later in this report. MARKET VALUE DEFINITION Market Value as defined by the United States Department of the Treasury through the Comptroller of the Currency and the Office of Thrift Supervision is: The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgeably and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE 5 ♦ buyer and seller are typically motivated; ♦ both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what he considers his own best interest; ♦ a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; ♦ payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and ♦ the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale. This definition is also recognized by the Appraisal Foundation and is part of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).

Environmental Disclaimer: The value opinions in this report are based on the assumption that the subject properties are not adversely affected by the existence of hazardous substances or detrimental environmental conditions. A routine inspection of the properties did not reveal or indicate any such conditions. In that the appraisers are not qualified in this field of expertise, the client is encouraged to retain an expert in such investigations, if so desired. DESCRIPTION OF SUBJECT PROPERTIES Neighborhood The subject properties are located along a segment of 80t'' Street South between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South. This street segment is approximately 3,800 lineal feet in length. The neighborhood is located in the north central portion of Cottage Grove. Primary access into the area is provided by U.S. Highway 10/61 at its interchanges with Jamaica Avenue South and 80t'' Street South. The predominant property type in the area is urban single-family homes. In addition to the urban single-family homes, and more specifically along 80t'' Street South in the project area is one rural residential home, two churches, a city-owned garage and city-owned park land. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE 7 Description Of Subject Properties Land Area Property (Ac.) Use/Improvements Comments 1. 8694 80th Street S. 7.53 Church of St. Rika Located on the north side of 80th Street S. built in 1990. Properry consists of two adjoining tax parcels, which are both fairly similar in size. Gross site area is 8.05 acres;excluding righ of way,net land area is 7.53 acres. Excluding right of way,tax parce109-027-21-43-0004 contains 337 acres and taY parce109-027-21-43-0005 contains 4.16 acres. The front appro�mately 80% of the sike is level and the rear 20% of the site drops sharply downward to the north in the area of a 20-foot- wide drainage and uriliky easement along the northern edge of the site. The two taY parcels are valued as one because they are contiguous, under common ownership and,if vacant,would l�lcely be developed/used together. 2. 7955 Ivystone Avenue S. 4.44 Crossroads Church Located on three streets: Ivystone Avenue South built in 1987. (to the west), 80th Street South(to the south) and Jamaica Avenue South(to the east). Access to the site is provided by Ivystone Avenue South only. Site is generally open and unwooded with a leveltopography. 3. 8726 80th Street S. 1.72 Single-Family Home Located on north side of 80th Street S. Gross built in 1967. land area is 1.95 acres;excluding right of way, net land area is 1.72 acres. Topography is level to rolling and the lot has moderate tree cover. There is a 20-foot-wide drainage and utility easement along the northern edge of the lot. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE 8 DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE Street — The segment of 80t'' Street South between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South is approximately 3,800 lineal feet in length and was reconstructed in 1998. This segment is a 4-lane undivided minor arterial that is 47 feet wide from face of curb to face of curb, excluding turn lanes. The pavement section of this segment has average bituminous of 6 inches over 10 to 11 inches of aggregate base. The Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is 35 on a scale of 1 to 100. Pavements in this range are considered to be in poor condition and generally exhibit major distress. A PCI map is on a following page. The existing concrete curb and gutter is generally in good condition, with approximately 10% of the curb being damaged. Testing of the pavement has shown that the street is severely rutted. Rutting is a surface depression in the wheel path that may be accompanied by pavement uplift alongside the rut; it's a result of a permanent deformation in any of the pavement layers of subgrade due to traffic loading. From the observation of the core samples, the rutting is limited to the surface course of bituminous and it does not extend into the aggregate base or subgrade materials. Trail — Located along both sides of 80t'' Street South between 79t'' Street South and Isleton Avenue South is an 8-foot wide bituminous trail, and along the north side of 80t'' Street South between ivystone and Jamaica Avenues South is an 8-foot wide bituminous trail. The trail exhibits wide transverse joints every 15 to 25 feet with areas of patching. The pedestrian ramps are non-compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Sanitarv Sewer — The sanitary sewer system along 80t'' Street consists of 8 to 9-inch diameter VCP and 15-inch diameter RCP. The sanitary sewer was televised to evaluate pipe condition, and the results indicate that the pipe is generally in good condition. Some problems encountered during the televising were root intrusion, cracked pipe and sags. Also, noticed during the inspection were miscellaneous repairs including patching and lining. Water Main — The water mains along 80t'' Street South consist of 6, 12, 24, 30 and 36- inch diameter DIP and CIP. The mains were installed as part of multiple projects at various times ranging from 1963 to 2008. The water mains are believed to be in good condition. However, projects of similar eras have had instances of excessive bolt corrosion on valves. Storm Sewer — The storm sewer was televised to evaluate pipe condition. In addition, storm structures were also inspected. Generally, the storm sewer mains are in good condition. Some issues encountered in the storm sewer were cracked or broken pipes and dirty lines.

PAGE 11 DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS Street — Based on the deteriorated condition of the existing paving, 80t'' Street South between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South will undergo a full pavement removal and replacement with 6 inches of new pavement. Due to the concrete curb and gutter being in generally good condition, spot replacement will be done on an as needed basis; preliminary estimates indicate that approximately 10% will need to be removed and replaced. Traffic signs will be replaced to meet federal retroreflectivity requirements. Also as part of the project, the existing street light system will be evaluated for repair, but since the existing wiring is located within a conduit, it is expected to be in good condition. Trail — The trail's bituminous will be replaced as part of the project, as will all pedestrian ramps. Sanitarv Sewer — Inline repairs will be made where there are cracks in the pipe. In areas where the pipe sags, the pipe will be removed and replaced. In addition, the manhole castings will be salvaged and reinstalled, and the concrete adjusting rings will be replaced with new high density polyethylene adjusting rings. Water Main — As part of the project, broken valve top sections will be removed and replaced. In addition, hydrant barrels will be extended on any hydrant requiring adjustments, and hydrants will be reconditioned via sandblasting and painting. Storm Sewer — For the most part, the project is intended to rehabilitate the streets and not change existing drainage patterns. Where there are cracks and leaking or offset joints, in-line repairs will be made. Structures in poor condition will be replaced. Adjustment rings for manholes will be replaced with high density polyethylene rings; catch basin rings will not be replaced unless the curb adjacent to them is removed, or the ring has failed. The existing casings will be salvaged and reinstalled. Miscellaneous patching, lining, and other repairs will be performed as needed. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE 12 HIGHEST AND BEST USE Highest and Best Use - Before Proposed Improvements As Vacant: Shown below is the concluded highest and best use, as vacant, of each property: Property Highest And Best Use, As Vacant L Church of St. Rita - 8694 80th St. S. Low densiry urban residential development 2. Crossroads Church- 7955 Ivystone Ave. S. Low densiry urban residential development 3. Single-Family Home - 9726 80th St. S. One single-family home As Improved: Only the land components of the subject properties are being appraised and therefore the highest and best use, as improved, was not addressed. Highest and Best Use — After Street Improvements After the street improvements, the highest and best use of all of the subject properties remains the same relative to the before improvements position. SPECIAL BENEFIT CONSIDERATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS 1. Before the proposed improvements, 80t'' Street South between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South is relatively old and deteriorated. It can be anticipated that further deterioration will result in a worsening of problems associated with advanced age, including improper drainage, uneven driving surfaces, increased formation of potholes, etc. 2. The condition and quality of streets and utilities serving and fronting commercial, residential and other properties influences the value, curb appeal and general desirability of the properties. 3. The proposed rehabilitation of 80t'' Street South between Ideal and Jamaica Avenues South, which serves the subject properties, will substantially improve the safety, convenience and general appeal of access into and out of the subject properties. The project will reverse the deteriorating state of the existing street and result in new surfacing. 4. Safety aspects for vehicles traveling on a rehabilitated street are enhanced by the elimination of potholes, cracks, etc. Street icing problems are reduced as water is more efficiently diverted off the roadway surface that could otherwise collect in the deteriorated street areas during frost seasons. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE 13 5. The proposed repairs and minor replacements, as necessary, of water main, sanitary sewer and storm sewer utility components in the project area will preempt potential major problems and disruptions in these systems, as well as extend the life of this infrastructure, deferring the need for total replacement to a significantly later point in time. 6. The proposed project improvements in some areas may result in some general benefit to neighborhoods and properties beyond the immediate subject neighborhoods. However, a significant amount of benefit resulting from the project is special, attaching to the properties directly fronting and accessing the rehabilitated street, including two of the three subject properties. 7. The land value increase for each property, on a percentage basis as well as on a per-square-foot basis and a per-front-foot basis, resulting from the street and utility improvements can vary, and in this appraisal they do vary in some cases. This is due to differences among the properties in parcel land value, parcel size, parcel configuration, amount of street frontage, sources of access and/or number of fronting streets. Following are comments on specific circumstances that influence the special benefit resulting from the proposed public improvements: Propertv 1 — 8694 80t'' Street South: This is a church property with a highest and best use of the land, as vacant, for urban single-family residential lot subdivision and development. The property has street frontage on 80t'' Street South, which is proposed for rehabilitation, and is the only means of access for the property. Therefore, because 80t'' Street South is the only means of access, the 80t'' Street South frontage is necessary for development of the site. On the other hand, some internal street construction would be required to support subdivision and development with urban single-family homes. This requirement does tend to dilute the total benefit that otherwise would accrue to the property if the street to be rehabilitated were the only one serving the land as developed. Propertv 2 — 7955 Ivvstone Avenue South: This is a church property with a highest and best use of the land, as vacant, for urban single-family residential lot subdivision and development. The property has frontage on three streets: Jamaica Avenue South on the east, 80t'' Street South on the south and Ivystone Avenue South on the west. However, only one of the streets, Ivystone Avenue South, provides direct access to the property. If developed to its highest and best use with residential urban lots, it is highly likely that only Ivystone Avenue would provide direct access into the subdivision as well. Ivystone Avenue is in relatively good condition and is not in need of rehabilitation at this time. In our opinion, the Property 2 land would have no difference, before and after the improvements, relative to the land value if this site were located elsewhere in the neighborhood with frontage on ivystone Avenue only, and no frontage on 80t'' Street or Jamaica Avenue, due to its residential rather than commercial-oriented nature. Therefore, because 80t'' Street South does not provide a means of access to the property, and its frontage is not necessary for development of the site, in our opinion, the rehabilitation of the street does not result in a special benefit to the subject property. BRKW APPRAISALS, INC. PAGE 14 SPECIAL BENEFIT ANALYSIS PROCESS Arriving at an opinion of special value benefits accruing to each of the subject properties as a result of completion of the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project is accomplished by developing "before improvements" and "after improvements" opinions of market value for each of the subject land parcels. The improvements on the land are concluded to have the same value contributions to the total property value in both the "before and after" improvements positions. Consequently, the extent of special value benefits from the public improvements project can be reliably derived by analyzing the value of the land only, by processing the Direct Sales Comparison Approach. The Direct Sales Comparison Approach was applied in valuing Property 3. This approach involves the comparison of recently sold land parcels similar to the subject properties. The comparable sale prices are analyzed and adjustments are made for value-related differences relative to the subject properties. The result of the analysis and adjustments is the generation of a range of value indications for the subject land. The strengths and weaknesses of each comparable sale and its value indication are evaluated before arriving at a final value opinion for the subject land parcel. The Development Cost Approach was applied in valuing Property 1, which has a highest and best use for urban residential lot subdivision and development. The Development Cost Approach addresses the net present value of land that can be subdivided and developed into multiple parcels, by deducting from total retail lot value potential the costs of development and profit requirements of the developer. Retained in the appraisers' office work file for this assignment are market data, notes and other supporting information pertaining to the processing of the Direct Sales Comparison Approach and the Development Cost Approach in a before-and-after land value analysis for the subject property. Shown on the following page is the result of these analyses, presenting the opinion of the special benefit values as of October 26, 2015 resulting from the City of Cottage Grove 2016 Pavement Management Project.
