Regular Business Items
A. Community Growth Partnership Application: City of Pelican Rapids/Ace Hardware Parking and
Blight Removal
Baldwin reported Ace Hardware has acquired the lot and building which is the abutting lot to the
north of their current building. Their plans are to demo the building and install a parking lot. The
building is in poor condition and beyond useful life. The City has requested $25,000 with the
cost of project to be $140,000. Motion by Dena Johnson, second by Dave Ripley to approve.
Motion passed unanimously.
B. Community Growth Partnership Application: City of New York Mills Senior Affordable Housing
The City of New York Mills currently owns two lots in the South Point Development that are
being considered for the development of six affordable senior rental units (two triplexes). Otter
Tail County HRA has submitted an application for funding to Minnesota Housing and if approved
construction is to begin in 2024. The purchase price for the lots is $44,000 - The City of New
York Mills is requesting $25,000 for acquisition costs and Otter Tail County HRA would fund
$19,000 as part of the overall project. Barbara Dacy reported that she had attended the City of
New York Mills July meeting and that New York Mills are supportive. Besty Roder also reported
that the City of New York Mills is very excited for the project and is very supportive. The
commissioners discussed grant flexibility of either 18 or 24 months. Motion by Kurt Mortenson
with the addition of “within 24 months”, second by Val Martin to approve. Motion passed
unanimously.

5 of 44
a.Draft Purchase Agreement
The sale of the real estate purchase agreement has been authorized as long as the provisions
include “must plan to use the property” and “not to be used as storage”. Motion by Dena
Johnson, second by Dave Ripley to approve the resolution regarding the sale as well as the
form of the purchase agreement. Motion passed unanimously. Johnson indicated the revised
purchase agreement did not need to be brought back after the provisions were changed.
D.Minnesota Housing Community Impact Fund Application
Baldwin reported the Community Homeownership Impact Fund (CHIF) offered by MHFA
provides funding to developers and administrators for the construction of single family, owner
occupied, affordable housing. The application is accepted once per year through a competitive
single Family RFP process. This funding supported the Hidden Meadows project in Battle Lake.
The CDA would include a request for Value Gap and Interim Loan funds for the development of
two homes within the Highway Garage site in Pelican Rapids and one located at 117 NW 1st
Ave, which the HRA owns. Preliminary realtor estimates that a 3-bedroom home with an
unfinished basement would sell for approximately $280,000. The Value Gap portion of the CHIF
program covers the difference between the home’s cost of development and the amount it
would sell for. Interim Loan Funds would provide the capital needed to fund the construction of
the homes without tying up existing CDA resources. The board discussed various components
of the program, including the desire to ensure efficient use of funds. Motion by Kurt Mortenson,
second by Dave Ripley to approve. Motion passed unanimously.
Discussion and Communications
Preliminary 2024 Budget Discussion
Baldwin reported that she recommends maintaining the same levy request as last year.
Expenses related to Battle Lake and Pelican Rapids projects will be covered by utilizing some of
the available reserve funds. It was noted that the funding for childcare programming and youth
workforce navigation falls under Otter Tail County financials so are not included in the CDA’s
budget. Commissioners requested that Baldwin check into the savings rate for the funds in
reserve.
Otter Communications
Tanya Westra has accepted the Housing Program Supervisor position.

EMPLOYER’S GUIDE
BUILD A HIGH SCHOOL INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
There are 10 steps for employers to build a successful high school internship program
that meets objectives and results in a positive experience for the student and employer:
Build Relationships
• Build relationships with teachers for career awareness and company branding.
• Use k12navigator.org to connect with the right teacher, counselor, or staff
person at the schools in your area.
• Get your company’s name in the classroom.
Host a Student Tour Field Trip
• Host a student field trip using the tool “Employer’s Guide to a Conducting a
Successful Student Tour”.
• Send email invitations to schools/teachers of your choice.
• During the visit, introduce your internship program. Send around a sign-up
sheet for students that are interested and teachers.
• Email interested students and their teacher to share more information about
your internship program.
Continue Student Engagement
• Follow up with the teacher separately on ways you will engage the student,
including your internship program.
• Examples of ways to continue student engagement could include:
o Job Shadows
o Classroom Speaker
o Student Mentoring
o Teacher Externship
o Material Donation
o Student Project Support
o Student Transportation Funding
Keep Students Top of Mind
• Keep students at the top of your mind for the most meaningful experience.
• Students like:
o Interaction with people
o Hands on work
o Exploring different areas
o Accessible supervisor
o Being treated like an employee and
attending department meetings
o Autonomy and trust to execute a project
24 of 44
Youth Skills Training
Determine Program Duration
•Determine the duration of program. It is easier to shorten a plan to cater to a
student intern’s availability.
•Discuss the student intern’s desired outcome at an intake meeting.
o Give students an option of what departments to explore.
o Discuss student availability and duration of internship.
•A few common options include:
o One semester or trimester: typical in a work-based learning environment
with 1-to-2-week rotations in different departments.
o Six weeks: Spend 3 weeks exploring different departments. Halfway
through the internship, sit down with the student intern to review their
experience. Allow them to spend the remaining 3 weeks exploring their
favorite department(s).
o Nine weeks: Spend 5 weeks exploring different departments. Halfway
through the internship, sit down with the student intern to review their
experience. Allow them to spend the remaining 4 weeks in exploring their
favorite department(s).
Assign a Coordinator •Assign an on-site Program Coordinator to be the point of contact for studentsand teachers.
Design Pathways and Activities
•Design your internship pathways and training activities. Consider the following:o Are there training videos or scenarios that they can complete duringtheir down time?o Is there a project that they can have autonomy to execute?
Assign Mentors
•Assign positive and encouraging mentors in each department that the studentspends time exploring.
Student Presentation
•At the end of internship, encourage the student intern to prepare a
presentation of their internship experience, what he/she learned through the
process, and how it helped define his/her career pathway.
•Present to company leaders and mentors
Enhance & Improve
•Enhance this process and improve the internship program every year to fit
your objectives as the employer.
•Ask your student intern and teachers how the internship program could be
improved for future interns.

Looking for a little help: Child care
shortage needs innovative solutions

Finding child care in rural areas is not a new struggle. Whether you're just moving to a community or
having a new child on the way, the waitlists can be long and impact other aspects of a family, too.

Finding out you're expecting a baby is exciting, but knowing you need to start looking for child care as
soon as you find out you're pregnant can be stressful. Daycares are limited in the number of infants
they can take on. Licensed providers can take two or three depending on the ages of the other kids in
their care. This shortage leaves new or expecting parents in a scramble to find open spots.
Child care provider Alexis Nelson said, "I have been getting tons of calls for families looking for infant
care as far as a year out." She, like many parents, had to make choices about her own employment
when she found out she was expecting her third child.
"I knew it would be nearly impossible to find childcare for an infant, so I decided I would love to do
daycare again and be able to raise my baby myself along with making an income and taking care of
other people's children," Nelson stated.
This is a common solution to the child care shortage. Parents are leaving their careers to work in the
daycare field while their children are young. Making enough money outside of the home to cover the
childcare cost and come out ahead is difficult with the hourly wages of available jobs, too.
Another struggle is to find someone you trust and feel safe leaving your child with. Amber Eastwood,
mom of two, has felt that first hand: "Struggles were finding someone who would care for my child as I
would myself, finding a person {not a center) who would take pride in the care and love for all
children." After finding the right fit for her first son, she faced the same concerns with her second
child. She was able to get him into the same daycare as her first, but it wasn't that simple.
"I had to wait until the baby at the time turned one so I had to figure out alternative care for four to
five weeks," said Eastwood.
Child care for school age children proves to be another hurdle for parents. Area daycares don't always
offer openings for part time or after school spots only, leaving parents looking for a place for their kids
to go for a couple hours and over the summer vacation months. Youth and family director at the

Fergus Falls YMCA, Nicole Washek, has seen changes in the need over the past couple years though,
stating that the after school program isn't in a crunch for spots anymore.
"COVID has changed that, it seems like more families have flexible jobs or hours and can work from
home some," she said. Finding a safe and engaging place for kids who are too old for daycare and not
old enough to be alone for the summer is still limited. Staffing and space make it hard to
accommodate the number of kids in the area needing full time summer care.
As a county, Otter Tail is making improvements to help families and providers through the process of
finding and providing care. An app is now available to find open spaces and shows providers on a map.
There are Facebook groups to help spread the word and help fellow parents out. The county also
became part of a The Rural Child Care Innovation Program where providers can get grants to help with
the costs of running a daycare. The Child Care Capacity Grant Program also aids in this area by
providing financial support to new providers that will increase child care slots and existing providers
who will be able to maintain their current supply of child care slots.
The difficulty in finding and paying for child care is ongoing and it isn't isolated to the area. It is
nationwide. The resources offered through OTC can be a big help in finding the right solutions for the
whole family.

I. PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT GRANT QUESTIONS
1. Describe the public infrastructure activity for which funds are being requested and how this investment will
advance the development of new housing within the community, including a description of the resulting
housing project. Attach engineering estimates related to the infrastructure activity.
Funds will be used for installation of public infrastructure including streets, curb, gutter, sewer, water, and
storm sewer, to serve the next phase of the Prairies Edge development in NE Perham. The infrastructure
installation also includes a sewage lift station that will serve Prairies Edge Phase 3 as well as up to 160
acres of land to the North and East for future development. The current development will consist of 38
single family lots. The plan also includes a multi-modal trail that will connect the development to Arvig Park.
2. Describe how the infrastructure and associated housing project will benefit the community or area in which
it is located. Does the infrastructure investment have a broader benefit beyond the housing project
previously described?
Demand for single family homes continues to be strong in Perham and the surrounding area. This
development will benefit the city residents by adding housing options, recreational opportunities, and tax
capacity. It will also benefit local businesses by adding housing options for new or current employees.
3. Readiness to Proceed: Please provide a detailed project timeline for both the infrastructure and the housing
development.
The city council plans to approve advertisement for infrastructure installation bids at their July 26, 2023
meeting. The infrastructure installation could start as soon as early Fall of 2023 with housing construction
starting soon after. The developers will follow the development schedule laid out in their development
agreements which will require a certain number of homes be built each year for five years. If followed, the
development will be fully built out at the end of the fifth full construction season.

RESOLUTION 2023- APPROVING THE TERMS OF UP TO A $________________ INTERFUND LOAN IN
CONNECTION WITH A PROPOSED TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT
WHEREAS, the Otter Tail County Community Development Agency (the "CDA"), is contemplating establishing a Tax Increment Financing District (the "TIF District") within the City of Pelican Rapids, and may adopt a tax increment financing plan for the TIF District (the
"TIF Plan");
WHEREAS, the CDA may pay for certain costs to be identified in the TIF Plan consisting of land acquisition, public utilities, site improvements/preparation, other eligible improvements, and administrative costs (the "Qualified Costs") incurred in connection with the
establishment of the TIF District and development of land within the TIF District, which costs
may be financed on a temporary basis from CDA funds available for such purposes; WHEREAS, under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.178, Subd. 7, the CDA is authorized to advance or loan money from the CDA's general fund or any other fund from which such
advances may be legally made, in order to finance the Qualified Costs; and
WHEREAS, the CDA intends to reimburse itself for the payment of the Qualified Costs, plus interest thereon, from tax increments derived from the TIF District in accordance with the terms of this resolution (which terms are referred to collectively as the "Interfund Loan"):
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of the Community Development Agency of Otter Tail County, Minnesota, as follows: 1. The CDA hereby authorizes the advance of up to $________________ from the
CDA's General Fund or so much thereof as may be paid as Qualified Costs. The CDA shall
reimburse itself for such advances together with interest at the rate stated below. Interest accrues on the principal amount from the date of each advance. The maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged is limited to the greater of the rates specified under Minnesota Statutes, Section 270C.40 or Section 549.09 as of the date the loan or advance is authorized, unless the written
agreement states that the maximum interest rate will fluctuate as the interest rates specified under
Minnesota Statutes, Section 270C.40 or Section 549.09 are from time to time adjusted. The interest rate shall be 5.00% and will not fluctuate.
2. Principal and interest on the Interfund Loan (the "Payments") shall be paid annually on each December 31 commencing with the date the tax increments from the TIF
District are available and not otherwise pledged to and including the earlier of (i) the date the
principal and accrued interest of the Interfund Loan is paid in full, or (ii) the date of last receipt of tax increment from the TIF District ("Payment Dates") which Payments will be made in the amount and only to the extent of available tax increments. Payments shall be applied first to accrued interest, and then to unpaid principal.
3. Payments on the Interfund Loan are payable solely from the tax increment
generated in the preceding twelve (12) months with respect to the TIF District and remitted to the CDA by Otter Tail County, all in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.174 to
39 of 44
128284306v1
2
469.1794, as amended. Payments on this Interfund Loan are subordinate to any outstanding or future bonds, notes or contracts secured in whole or in part with tax increment, and are on parity
with any other outstanding or future interfund loans secured in whole or in part with tax
increments.
4. The principal sum and all accrued interest payable under this Interfund Loan are pre-payable in whole or in part at any time by the CDA without premium or penalty. No partial prepayment shall affect the amount or timing of any other regular payment otherwise required to
be made under this Interfund Loan.
5. The Interfund Loan is evidence of an internal borrowing by the CDA in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.178, Subd. 7, and is a limited obligation payable solely from tax increment pledged to the payment hereof under this resolution. The Interfund Loan and the interest hereon shall not be deemed to constitute a general obligation of
the State of Minnesota or any political subdivision thereof, including, without limitation, the
CDA. Neither the State of Minnesota, nor any political subdivision thereof shall be obligated to pay the principal of or interest on the Interfund Loan or other costs incident hereto except out of tax increment, and neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of the State of Minnesota or any political subdivision thereof is pledged to the payment of the principal of or interest on the
Interfund Loan or other costs incident hereto. The CDA shall have no obligation to pay any
principal amount of the Interfund Loan or accrued interest thereon, which may remain unpaid after the termination of the TIF District.
6. The CDA may amend the terms of the Interfund Loan at any time by resolution of the Board, including a determination to forgive the outstanding principal amount and accrued
interest to the extent permissible under law.
7. This resolution is effective upon the date of its approval.
