Executive Director Podhradsky presented this item to the Economic Development Authority.
President Hubbard asked if there would be signage now at the entrance to let patrons know
they can use the stadium seating for spectating, without the requirement to order food or
beverages. Parks and Recreation Director Marshall Grange said signage would be appropriate,
but hoped that Copperfield staff would encourage patrons and make them feel welcome to
spectate.
President Hubbard asked what the plan was to communicate to the general public regarding the
timeline of the remodel, and to ensure the public knows the company is shifting the brand.
Executive Director Podhradsky stated there is a communication plan that will go out in different
forms, along with signage that will go up at the Curling Center, upon the EDA’s approval.
Mr. Grange added that social media posts will be posted on the City's social media pages, as
well as the Curling Center's. A press release will go to the Carver County local news upon the

EDA's approval. A direct message to all curling members will be sent out through their email
list with details about this change. Staff will be working to contact all the corporate Learn to
Curl groups that are scheduled while the restaurant is closed to discuss the changes that will be
happening. Staff will also contact all the groups that have events scheduled in the Event Center.
Executive Director Podhradsky added that it is important to remember that the catering kitchen
will still be open during this remodel. Mr. Grange added that there will be more information in
the upcoming Chaska newsletter regarding the remodel.
President Hubbard added that at the last work session, there was a robust discussion regarding
this project with the owner about specifications of the lease and what the remodel would look
like, and the catering component.
Commissioner Hatfield noted that this project is exciting because of the reinvestment into the
restaurant, but the communication plan will be important to have in place, because there is
already fake news on social media regarding this project.
President Hubbard pointed out that there is a general curiosity about the project among
residents, and some people can be misinformed that because something is closing, it means
something is wrong, and that is not the case here. A good communication plan will help people
understand that this project will offer more versatility in catering menus and food options.
Motion by Commissioner Benesh, second by Commissioner Sheveland to approve the Lease
Agreement with Copperfield Chaska, LLC for use of the restaurant and banquet facility in the
Curling and Event Center, and to authorize the Executive Director to execute the final draft of
the lease with all attachments complete.
Motion carried.

## Chaska EDA Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2026A
## Prepared By: Noel Graczyk, Administrative Services Director
## Erica Mattice, Finance Division Director
## Overview
Baker Tilly Municipal Advisors, LLC (BTMA), Municipal Advisor to both the Chaska Economic
Development Authority (EDA) and the City of Chaska (City), have together structured a
proposed series of bonds for issuance by the EDA. With an estimated size at $55,380,000, t his
series of bonds will be issued as limited obligation EDA Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2026A.
This series of bonds is being issued at the request of the City and will be supported by annual
appropriations by the City to be paid annually as a lease payment to the EDA.
Attached is a draft resolution as prepared by Dorsey and Whitney, LLP., Bond Counsel to both
the EDA and the City , that establishes Wednesday June 10 , 2026, as the date of sale for Series
2026A. The following is a discussion of this proposed series.
## $55,380,000 EDA Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2026A
This series of bonds will finance construction by the City of a new Municipal Services Building
(MSB2), refunds temporary financing issued in 2025 to acquire the site for MSB2, and finance
improvements in 2026 for the City Hall Plaza project. Attached to proposed resolution 2026-37
is a “Pre-issuance report...” for Series 2026A prepared by BTMA that provides details on
issuance authority, proposed project sources and uses for each project, and estimated debt-
service schedules for this series.
## General Obligation (G.O.) Pledge
Issuance of Series 2026A does not include a G.O. pledge of the full faith and taxing authority by
either the EDA or the City towards repayment of debt service. Instead of a G.O. pledge, the
City will establish annual appropriations for lease payments as part of each annually adopted
budget over the thirty-year term of the bonds. When all bonds have been paid in full,
ownership of the site will be transferred from the EDA back to the City .
## Public Sale Date
Series 2026A will be sold at a competitive public sale on Wednesday June 10 , 20 26, and the
winning bid will be determined in compliance with parameters as established in the resolution.
Results from the sale of Series 2026A will be ratified by both the City and EDA at the next
regular meeting on Monday June 15, 2026.

## Issue Summary
## PURPOSE OF ISSUE
The Authority Board has under consideration the issuance of the Series 2026A Bonds along with available
Authority funds in the amount of $2,000,0000 to finance (i) the construction and equipping of a new
municipal service building (MSB) located in the City of Chaska, Minnesota (the “City”); (ii) repayment of the
City’s Lease-Purchase Agreement dated January 16, 2025, between Security Bank & Trust Co. and the
City (the “2025 Lease Purchase Agreement”); (iii) improvements to City Hall Plaza, and, together with items
(i) and (ii), (the “Project”); (iv) capitalized interest; and (v) costs of issuance of the Series 2026A Bonds.
This document provides information relative to the proposed issuance.
The 2025 Lease-Purchase Agreement was originally issued in the principal amount of $3,972,000 to finance
the acquisition of land compromising 12.96 acres of vacant land for the location of the municipal service
building. The current outstanding principal is $3,678,000. On August 1, 2026, the Authority will apply the
rental payment received from the City in the amount of $217,200 and proceeds of the Series 2026A bonds
in the amount of $3,645,000 to redeem the 2025 Lease-Purchase Agreement.
## AUTHORITY
The Series 2026A Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Sections 465.71, 471.64,
469.012 subdivision 1(h), Sections 469.033 and 469.034, and Chapter 475. The Series 2026A Bonds are
further issued pursuant to a Trust Indenture between the Authority and U.S. Bank National Association, St.
Paul, Minnesota (the “Trustee”) dated July 1, 2026 (the “Indenture”); a Lease Agreement between the
Authority and the City (the “Lease”) dated July 1, 2026; resolutions by the Authority and the City dated May
4, 2026 (the “Authorizing Resolutions”); and resolutions by the Authority and the City dated June 15, 2026
(the “Ratifying Resolutions”).
The Authorizing Resolutions to be considered on May 4, 2026, will designate the President and Executive
Director of the Authority (the “Pricing Committee”) to award the sale of the Series 2026A Bonds pursuant
to the following parameters:
• the total par amount of the Bonds will not exceed $57,700,000
• the maximum True Interest Cost (TIC) will not exceed 6.00%
## SECURITY/SOURCE OF PAYMENT
The Series 2026A Bonds will be special, limited obligations of the Authority payable from rental payments
to be received by the Authority from the City pursuant to the Lease. The City’s obligation under the lease is
subject to annual appropriation.
The City expects to levy taxes to pay the lease payments. The City will make their first levy in 2026 for
collection in 2027. The February 1, 2027 interest payment is being funded in part by capitalized interest
included in the par amount of the Series 2026A Bonds.
## FINANCING STRUCTURE
In consultation with City and Authority staff, the Series 2026A Bonds have been structured as three
purposes by project. The following describes the structure of each individual purpose and their prospective
costs:
Page 11 of 24
3
Municipal service building:
Structured to be repaid over a term of thirty (30) years, to provide for approximately level annual debt
service payments and will fund a deposit to the Project Construction Fund in the amount of $47,240,000.
City hall plaza:
Structured to be repaid over a term of fifteen (15) years, to provide for approximately level annual debt
service payments and will fund a deposit to the Project Construction Fund in the amount of $3,500,000.
## 2025 Lease-Purchase Refinancing:
Structured to be repaid over a term of thirty (30) years, to provide for approximately level annual debt
service payments. The final maturity of this portion has been extended from the original financing to match
the final maturity of the MSB portion of the Bonds and will fund a deposit to the Current Refunding Fund in
the amount of $3,645,000 to redeem the City’s Lease-Purchase Agreement dated January 16, 2025,
between Security Bank & Trust Co. and the City.
## Issue Terms
## BANK QUALIFICATION
The Authority debt counts towards the City’s bank qualification limit and since this issue exceeds the $10
million limit for tax-exempt obligations in 2026; the Series 2026A Bonds are not designated as bank
qualified.
## VARIABILITY OF ISSUE SIZE
A specific provision in the sale terms permits modifications to the issue size and/or maturity structure to
customize the issue once the price and interest rates are set on the day of sale.
## RISKS / SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The outcome of this financing will rely on the market conditions at the time of the sale. Any projections
included herein are estimates based on current market conditions.
Estimated interest rates applied in the structuring of the Series 2026A Bonds are based on current market
conditions and assume a reoffering premium. The underwriter will take their compensation from the
reoffering premium and any remaining premium can be used to downsize the issue, applied to additional
project needs or deposited to the debt service fund. Our preliminary bond structure has applied the
estimated premium to financing project needs thereby reducing the principal amount of the Series 2026A
Bonds. Determination of the use of premium, if received, will be made by the Authority prior to or on the
day of sale.
## OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
The Authority may elect on February 1, 2036 and on any date thereafter, to redeem the Series 2026A
Bonds on or after February 1, 2037, at a price of par plus accrued interest.
## Rating
An application will be made to S&P Global Ratings (S&P) for a rating on the Series 2026A Bonds. The
City’s general obligation debt is currently rated “AA” by S&P. The Authority’s lease revenue bonds
supported by annual appropriation are currently rated “AA-” by S&P.

## Post Issuance
## ARBITRAGE / REBATE
The issuance of the Series 2026A Bonds will result in post-issuance compliance responsibilities related to
compliance with federal arbitrage requirements compliance..
Federal arbitrage requirements include a wide range of implications that have been considered as this issue
has been structured. Post-issuance compliance responsibilities for this tax-exempt issue include both
rebate and yield restriction provisions of the IRS Code. In general terms the arbitrage requirements control
the earnings on unexpended bond proceeds, including investment earnings, moneys held for debt service
payments (which are considered to be proceeds under the IRS regulations), and/or reserves. Under certain
circumstances any “excess earnings” will need to be paid to the IRS to maintain the tax-exempt status of
the Bonds. Any interest earnings on gross bond proceeds or debt service funds should not be spent until it
has been determined based on actual facts that they are not “excess earnings” as defined by the IRS Code.
The arbitrage rules provide for spending exceptions for proceeds that are spent within 6-month, 18-month
or, for certain construction issues, a 24-month period each in accordance with certain spending criteria.
Proceeds that qualify for an exception will be exempt from rebate. These exceptions are based on actual
expenditures and not based on reasonable expectations, and expenditures, including any investment
proceeds will have to meet the spending criteria to qualify for the exclusion. The City and the Authority
expect to meet the 24-month spending exception.
Regardless of whether the Series 2026A Bonds qualifies for an exemption from the rebate provisions, yield
restriction provisions will apply to bond proceeds (including interest earnings) unspent after three years and
the debt service fund throughout the term of the Series 2026A Bonds. These moneys should be monitored
until the Series 2026A Bonds are retired.

Performance of the tax-exempt market is often measured by the Bond Buyer’s Index (“BBI”) which
measures the yield of high grade municipal bonds in the 20th year for general obligation bonds rated Aa2
by Moody’s or AA by S&P (the BBI 20-Bond GO Index) and the 30th year for revenue bonds rated A1 by
Moody’s or A+ by S&P (the BBI 25-Bond Revenue Index). The following chart illustrates these two indices

## Subject: Approve Downtown Building Improvement Program Loan
## Application from Keyport Properties LLC for 3115 Chaska Boulevard
## (Historic Chaska Depot)
## Prepared By: Julie Grove, Economic Development Coordinator
## Background
Since the mid-1990’s the Chaska Economic Development Authority (EDA) has offered a loan
program to businesses and property owners in downtown Chaska to restore buildings throughout
downtown. In 2023 the program was modified to include renovations on the rear of the building
and amend funding amounts and terms. The purpose of the program is to encourage restoration
of downtown buildings on both the front and rear facades in order to strengthen the overall
character of the area.
## Current Request
Recently, Staff has been working with the property owner of 3115 Chaska Blvd (Chaska Depot
building) on plans for interior and exterior renovations to the historic building.
The historic Chaska Depot, originally constructed in the late 1800’s as train depot, remains a
prominent landmark in downtown Chaska. While the building has passed through multiple owners
and housed various businesses, the exterior has remained close to its original appearance.
In 2005 the building was purchased by Dan Keyport who established the Dolce Vita Wine Shop.
Through its history the Depot has been carefully restored and upgraded to support the Wine
Shop. Notable improvements include resurface and restoration of the original Douglas Fir
wainscoting, and installation of 100-year-old red oak flooring.
The interior was recently damaged by a fire, and restoration efforts are currently underway. As
these repairs progress, Mr. Keyport is proposing to complete some exterior improvements and

The total project cost is $65,800. Per program guidelines, the property owner is required to
provide a 50 percent match, resulting in a requested loan amount of approximately $32,900. Of
this amount, $16,450 will be issued as a low-interest loan, repayable over 10 years. The remaining
$16,450 will be structured as a deferred, forgivable loan, with 10 percent forgiven annually,
provided the applicant retains ownership of the property. If the property is sold before the end
of the 10-year term, the remaining balance of the forgivable portion will be due, along with any
outstanding balance on the low interest loan.
The project advances the goals and objectives of the Downtown Building Improvement Program
guidelines, and staff recommends the EDA approve a loan in the amount of $32,900. and allow
work to begin immediately.
