  1  2 amended to read as follows:
  1  3    3.  It is further found and declared that there exists in
  1  4 this state the continuing need for programs to alleviate and
  1  5 prevent conditions of unemployment and a shortage of housing;
  1  6 and that it is accordingly necessary to assist and retain
  1  7 local industries and commercial enterprises to strengthen and
  1  8 revitalize the economy of this state and its municipalities;
  1  9 that accordingly it is necessary to provide means and methods
  1 10 for the encouragement and assistance of industrial and
  1 11 commercial enterprises in locating, purchasing, constructing,
  1 12 reconstructing, modernizing, improving, maintaining,
  1 13 repairing, furnishing, equipping, and expanding in this state
  1 14 and its municipalities, for the provision of public
  1 15 improvements related to housing and residential development,
  1 16 and for the construction of housing for low and moderate
  1 17 income families; that accordingly it is necessary to authorize
  1 18 local governing bodies to designate areas of a municipality as
  1 19 economic development areas for commercial and industrial
  1 20 enterprises, public improvements related to housing and
  1 21 residential development, or construction of housing for low
  1 22 and moderate income families; and that it is also necessary to
  1 23 encourage the location and expansion of commercial enterprises
  1 24 to more conveniently provide needed services and facilities of
  1 25 the commercial enterprises to municipalities and the residents
  1 26 of the municipalities.  Therefore, the powers granted in this
  1 27 chapter constitute the performance of essential public
  1 28 purposes for this state and its municipalities.
  1 29    Sec. 2.  Section 403.5, Code 2003, is amended by adding the
  1 30 following new subsection:
  1 31    NEW SUBSECTION.  3A.  Following the public hearing, an
  1 32 affected taxing entity may adopt a resolution approving or
  1 33 rejecting the proposed urban renewal plan.  If an affected
  1 34 taxing entity adopts a resolution rejecting the proposed urban
  1 35 renewal plan, the municipality proposing the urban renewal
  2  1 plan shall not proceed with the urban renewal plan and the
  2  2 taxes levied on taxable property shall not be divided under
  2  3 section 403.19.
  2  4    Sec. 3.  Section 403.5, subsection 4, unnumbered paragraph
  2  5 1, Code 2003, is amended to read as follows:

  2 10 2003, is amended to read as follows:
  2 11    b.  The urban renewal plan conforms to the general plan of
  2 12 the municipality as a whole; provided, that if the urban
  2 13 renewal area consists of an area of open land to be acquired
  2 14 by the municipality, such area shall not be so acquired
  2 15 except:
  2 16    (1)  If it is to be developed for residential uses, the
  2 17 local governing body shall determine that a shortage of
  2 18 housing of sound standards and design with decency, safety and
  2 19 sanitation exists in the municipality; that the acquisition of
  2 20 the area for residential uses is an integral part of and
  2 21 essential to the program of the municipality; and that one or
  2 22 more of the following conditions exist:
  2 23    (a)  That the need for housing accommodations has been or
  2 24 will be increased as a result of the clearance of slums in
  2 25 other areas, including other portions of the urban renewal
  2 26 area.
  2 27    (b)  That conditions of blight in the municipality and the
  2 28 shortage of decent, safe and sanitary housing cause or

  2 31 morals, or welfare.
  2 32    (c)  That the provision of public improvements related to
  2 33 housing and residential development will encourage housing and
  2 34 residential development which is necessary to encourage the

  3  7 nonresidential uses are necessary and appropriate to
  3  8 facilitate the proper growth and development of the community
  3  9 in accordance with sound planning standards and local
  3 10 community objectives.  The acquisition may require the
  3 11 exercise of governmental action, as provided in this chapter,
  3 12 because of defective or unusual conditions of title, diversity
  3 13 of ownership, tax delinquency, improper subdivisions, outmoded
  3 14 street patterns, deterioration of site, economic disuse,
  3 15 unsuitable topography or faulty lot layouts, or because of the
  3 16 need for the correlation of the area with other areas of a
  3 17 municipality by streets and modern traffic requirements, or
  3 18 any combination of such factors or other conditions which
  3 19 retard development of the area.
  3 20    A municipality shall not condemn agricultural land included
  3 21 within an economic development area unless the owner of the
  3 22 agricultural land consents to condemnation or unless the
  3 23 agricultural land is to be acquired for industry as that term
  3 24 is defined in section 260E.2.  This paragraph shall not apply

  3 29 defined in section 384.80.
  3 30    Sec. 5.  Section 403.15, subsection 2, Code 2003, is
  3 31 amended to read as follows:
  3 32    2.  If the urban renewal agency is authorized to transact
  3 33 business and exercise powers pursuant to this chapter, the

  3 35 the advice and consent of the local governing body, shall
  4  1 appoint four members of a board of commissioners of the urban
  4  2 renewal agency, which board shall consist of five seven
  4  3 commissioners.  In cities having a population of more than one
  4  4 hundred thousand, the city council may establish, by
  4  5 ordinance, the number of commissioners at not less than five.
  4  6 The affected taxing entities, other than the municipality that
  4  7 has approved the urban renewal plan, shall appoint three
  4  8 members of the board of commissioners of the urban renewal
  4  9 agency.  The term of office of each such commissioner shall be

  4 16 improvements related to housing and residential development,
  4 17 or construction of housing and residential development for low
  4 18 and moderate income families, including single or multifamily
  4 19 housing.  If an urban renewal plan for an urban renewal area
  4 20 is based upon a finding that the area is an economic
  4 21 development area and that no part contains slum or blighted
  4 22 conditions, then the division of revenue provided in section
  4 23 403.19 and stated in the plan shall be limited to twenty years
  4 24 from the calendar year following the calendar year in which
  4 25 the municipality first certifies to the county auditor the
  4 26 amount of any loans, advances, indebtedness, or bonds which
  4 27 qualify for payment from the division of revenue provided in
  4 28 section 403.19.  Such designated area shall not include
  4 29 agricultural land, including land which is part of a century
  4 30 farm, unless the owner of the agricultural land or century
  4 31 farm agrees to include the agricultural land or century farm
  4 32 in the urban renewal area.  For the purposes of this
  4 33 subsection, "century farm" means a farm in which at least
  4 34 forty acres of such farm have been held in continuous
  4 35 ownership by the same family for one hundred years or more.
  5  1    Sec. 7.  Section 403.17, subsections 12 and 14, Code 2003,
  5  2 are amended by striking the subsections.

  5  7 elimination and for the prevention of the development or
  5  8 spread of slums and blight, may include the designation and
  5  9 development of an economic development area in an urban
  5 10 renewal area, and may involve slum clearance and redevelopment
  5 11 in an urban renewal area, or rehabilitation or conservation in
  5 12 an urban renewal area, or any combination or part thereof in
  5 13 accordance with an urban renewal program.  The designation and
  5 14 development of an economic development area in an urban
  5 15 renewal area shall not include an undertaking or activity that
  5 16 would facilitate the relocation of a business from another
  5 17 location within the state unless the relocation is within the
  5 18 municipality that has designated the urban renewal area.  The
  5 19 undertakings and activities may include:
  5 20    Sec. 9.  Section 403.17, subsection 25, Code 2003, is
  5 21 amended by adding the following new paragraphs:
  5 22    NEW PARAGRAPH.  i.  If the area is designated as a slum or
  5 23 blighted area, public improvements related to housing and
  5 24 residential development for low-income and moderate-income
  5 25 families or construction of housing and residential
  5 26 development for low-income and moderate-income families,
  5 27 including single or multifamily housing.
  5 28    NEW PARAGRAPH.  j.  Expenditure of proceeds of bonds issued
  5 29 before March 1, 2003, if the portion of taxes mentioned in
  5 30 section 403.19, subsection 2, and the special fund into which
  5 31 the proceeds will be paid are obligated or irrevocably pledged
  5 32 in accordance with an ordinance adopted under section 403.19
  5 33 before March 1, 2003, for public improvements related to
  5 34 housing and residential development or construction of housing
  5 35 and residential development for low-income and moderate-income
  6  1 families.
  6  2    Sec. 10.  Section 403.19, subsection 1, paragraphs a and b,
  6  3 Code 2003, are amended to read as follows:
  6  4    a.  Unless otherwise provided in this section, that portion
  6  5 of the taxes which would be produced by the rate at which the
  6  6 tax is levied each year by or for each of the taxing districts
  6  7 upon the total sum of the assessed taxable value of the
  6  8 taxable property in the urban renewal area, as shown on the
  6  9 assessment roll as of January 1 of the calendar year preceding
  6 10 the first calendar year in which the municipality certifies to
  6 11 the county auditor the amount of loans, advances,
  6 12 indebtedness, or bonds payable from the division of property
  6 13 tax revenue, or on the assessment roll last equalized prior to
  6 14 the date of initial adoption of the urban renewal plan if the
  6 15 plan was adopted prior to July 1, 1972, shall be allocated to
  6 16 and when collected be paid into the fund for the respective
  6 17 taxing district as taxes by or for the taxing district into
  6 18 which all other property taxes are paid.  However, the
  6 19 municipality may choose to divide that portion of the taxes
  6 20 which would be produced by levying the municipality's portion
  6 21 of the total tax rate levied by or for the municipality upon
  6 22 the total sum of the assessed taxable value of the taxable
  6 23 property in the urban renewal area, as shown on the assessment
  6 24 roll as of January 1 of the calendar year preceding the
  6 25 effective date of the ordinance and if the municipality so
  6 26 chooses, an affected taxing entity may allow a municipality to
  6 27 divide that portion of the taxes which would be produced by
  6 28 levying the affected taxing district's portion of the total
  6 29 tax rate levied by or for the affected taxing entity upon the
  6 30 total sum of the assessed taxable value of the taxable
  6 31 property in the urban renewal area, as shown on the assessment
  6 32 roll as of January 1 of the calendar year preceding the
  6 33 effective date of the ordinance.  This choice to divide a
  6 34 portion of the taxes shall not be construed to change the
  6 35 effective date of the division of property tax revenue with
  7  1 respect to an urban renewal plan in existence on July 1, 1994.
  7  2    b.  For the purpose of allocating taxes levied by or for
  7  3 any taxing district which did not include the territory in an
  7  4 urban renewal area on the effective date of the ordinance or
  7  5 initial adoption of the plan, but to which the territory has
  7  6 been annexed or otherwise included after the effective date,
  7  7 the assessment roll applicable to property in the annexed
  7  8 territory as of January 1 of the calendar year preceding the
  7  9 effective date of the ordinance, which amends the plan to
  7 10 include the annexed area, shall be used in determining the
  7 11 assessed taxable valuation of the taxable property in the
  7 12 annexed area.
  7 13    Sec. 11.  Section 403.19, subsection 2, Code 2003, is
  7 14 amended to read as follows:
  7 15    2.  That portion of the taxes each year in excess of such
  7 16 amount shall be allocated to and when collected be paid into a
  7 17 special fund of the municipality to pay the principal of and
  7 18 interest on loans, moneys advanced to, or indebtedness,
  7 19 whether funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise, including
  7 20 bonds issued under the authority of section 403.9, subsection
  7 21 1, incurred by the municipality to finance or refinance, in
  7 22 whole or in part, an urban renewal project within the area,
  7 23 and to provide assistance for low and moderate income family
  7 24 housing as provided in section 403.22, except that taxes for
  7 25 the regular and voter-approved physical plant and equipment
  7 26 levy of a school district imposed pursuant to section 298.2,
  7 27 and taxes for the payment of bonds and interest of each taxing
  7 28 district, and for fiscal years beginning on or after July 1,
  7 29 2007, the foundation property tax imposed pursuant to section
  7 30 257.3, subsection 1, must be collected against all taxable
  7 31 property within the taxing district without limitation by the
  7 32 provisions of this subsection.  However, all or a portion of
  7 33 the taxes for the physical plant and equipment levy shall be
  7 34 paid by the school district to the municipality if the auditor
  7 35 certifies to the school district by July 1 the amount of such
  8  1 levy that is necessary to pay the principal and interest on
  8  2 bonds issued by the municipality to finance an urban renewal
  8  3 project, which bonds were issued before July 1, 2001.
  8  4 Indebtedness incurred to refund bonds issued prior to July 1,
  8  5 2001, shall not be included in the certification.  Such school
  8  6 district shall pay over the amount certified by November 1 and
  8  7 May 1 of the fiscal year following certification to the school
  8  8 district.  Unless and until the total assessed taxable
  8  9 valuation of the taxable property in an urban renewal area
  8 10 exceeds the total assessed taxable value of the taxable
  8 11 property in such area as shown by the last equalized
  8 12 assessment roll referred to in subsection 1, all of the taxes
  8 13 levied and collected upon the taxable property in the urban
  8 14 renewal area shall be paid into the funds for the respective
  8 15 taxing districts as taxes by or for the taxing districts in
  8 16 the same manner as all other property taxes.  When such loans,
  8 17 advances, indebtedness, and bonds, if any, and interest
  8 18 thereon, have been paid, all moneys thereafter received from
  8 19 taxes upon the taxable property in such urban renewal area
  8 20 shall be paid into the funds for the respective taxing
  8 21 districts in the same manner as taxes on all other property.
  8 22    Sec. 12.  Section 403.19, subsection 3, Code 2003, is
  8 23 amended to read as follows:
  8 24    3.  a.  The Except as provided in paragraphs "b" and "c",
  8 25 the portion of taxes mentioned in subsection 2 and the special
  8 26 fund into which they shall be paid, may be irrevocably pledged
  8 27 by a municipality for the payment of the principal and
  8 28 interest on loans, advances, bonds issued under the authority
  8 29 of section 403.9, subsection 1, or indebtedness incurred by a
  8 30 municipality to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the
  8 31 urban renewal project within the area.
  8 32    b.  No portion of taxes mentioned in subsection 2 or the
  8 33 special fund into which they shall be paid may be irrevocably
  8 34 pledged under this subsection on or after March 1, 2003, under
  8 35 an ordinance adopted pursuant to this section before March 1,
  9  1 2003, for an urban renewal project in an economic development
  9  2 area.
  9  3    c.  For ordinances adopted pursuant to this section on or
  9  4 after March 1, 2003, a municipality shall notify all affected
  9  5 taxing entities of its intent to irrevocably pledge the
  9  6 portion of taxes mentioned in subsection 2 and the special
  9  7 fund into which they shall be paid for any loans, moneys
  9  8 advanced to, or indebtedness, whether funded, refunded,
  9  9 assumed, or other otherwise, including bonds issued under the
  9 10 authority of section 403.9, subsection 1, to finance or
  9 11 refinance, in whole or in part, an urban renewal project in an
  9 12 economic development area.  Each affected taxing entity shall
  9 13 adopt a resolution within sixty days of adoption of the
  9 14 ordinance approving or rejecting the proposed pledge.  The
  9 15 resolution shall be filed with the county auditor within five
  9 16 days of adoption.  The municipality shall not irrevocably
  9 17 pledge for the payment of the principal and interest on loans,
  9 18 advances, bonds issued under the authority of section 403.9,
  9 19 subsection 1, or indebtedness incurred by a municipality to
  9 20 finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the urban renewal
  9 21 project within the area until the county auditor has received
  9 22 resolutions from all affected taxing entities approving the
  9 23 proposed pledge.
  9 24    Sec. 13.  Section 403.19, Code 2003, is amended by adding
  9 25 the following new subsections:
  9 26    NEW SUBSECTION.  9.  Taxes levied on taxable property in an
  9 27 urban renewal area shall not be divided under this section if
  9 28 the area for which taxes are proposed to be divided plus the
  9 29 total area in the county for which taxes are divided would
  9 30 exceed an amount equal to one percent of the total acres in
  9 31 the county.
  9 32    NEW SUBSECTION.  10.  When all loans, advances,
  9 33 indebtedness, and bonds, if any, and interest thereon, have
  9 34 been paid, revenues from taxes levied on taxable property in
  9 35 an urban renewal area shall not be divided pursuant to this
 10  1 section and shall not be deposited in a special fund under
 10  2 subsection 2, and the urban renewal area shall be dissolved.
 10  3    NEW SUBSECTION.  11.  The duration of a written agreement

 10 31 obligations or agreements, and repeal the ordinance approving
 10 32 the division of taxes pursuant to this section.
 10 33    Sec. 14.  NEW SECTION.  403.24  PENALTIES.
 10 34    If a municipality violates a provision of this chapter when
 10 35 approving or implementing an urban renewal plan or urban
 11  1 renewal project, the municipality shall not for a period of

 11  3 taxable property pursuant to section 403.19 in an urban
 11  4 renewal area adopted or amended after the violation.  In
 11  5 addition, the municipality shall not be eligible for economic
 11  6 development appropriations, loans, or grants from the state or
 11  7 any agency or instrumentality, corporate or otherwise, of this
 11  8 state including appropriations, loans, or grants available
 11  9 under chapters 15, 15E, and 15F.

 11 11 repealed.
 11 12    Sec. 16.  EFFECTIVE AND APPLICABILITY DATE.  This Act,
 11 13 being deemed of immediate importance, takes effect upon
 11 14 enactment and applies retroactively to the assessment year
 11 15 beginning January 1, 2003, for urban renewal areas and urban
 11 16 renewal projects established before, on, or after the
 11 17 effective date.  
 11 18                           EXPLANATION
 11 19    This bill makes changes to the law on urban renewal.
 11 20    The bill prohibits the use of urban renewal and tax
 11 21 increment financing for the provision of public improvements
 11 22 related to housing and residential development and for the
 11 23 construction of housing for low-income and moderate-income
 11 24 families in areas designated as economic development areas.
 11 25 The bill provides that an ordinance adopted before March 1,
 11 26 2003, authorizing a division of incremental revenues, may use
 11 27 incremental revenues obligated or pledged for public
 11 28 improvements for housing and residential development for those
 11 29 purposes.
 11 30    The bill provides that three members of the seven-member
 11 31 board of commissioners of an urban renewal agency shall be
 11 32 appointed by the affected taxing entities.
 11 33    The bill provides that incremental revenues collected
 11 34 pursuant to an ordinance adopted before March 1, 2003, may
 11 35 not, after that date, be used for an urban renewal project
 12  1 that had not begun by March 1, 2003, in an economic
 12  2 development area.  If an ordinance authorizing a division of
 12  3 incremental revenues to fund a project in an economic
 12  4 development area is adopted after March 1, 2003, within 60
 12  5 days of adoption of the ordinance, each affected taxing entity
 12  6 shall adopt a resolution approving or rejecting the pledge of
 12  7 revenues to a project in an economic development area.  The
 12  8 municipality may not incur debt for such a project until the
 12  9 county auditor has received approval resolutions from all the
 12 10 affected taxing entities.
 12 11    The bill provides that taxes levied in an urban renewal
 12 12 area cannot be divided for urban renewal purposes if the area
 12 13 for which taxes are proposed to be divided plus the total area
 12 14 in the county for which taxes are divided would exceed an
 12 15 amount equal to 1 percent of the total acres in the county.
 12 16    The bill provides that when all loans, advances, bonds, and
 12 17 other indebtedness incurred for urban renewal purposes have
 12 18 been paid, taxes shall no longer be divided and the urban
 12 19 renewal area shall be dissolved.
 12 20    The bill provides that effective for the fiscal year
 12 21 beginning July 1, 2005, a municipality shall not use
 12 22 incremental revenues to suspend, abate, exempt, rebate,
 12 23 refund, or reimburse property taxes, or provide a grant for
 12 24 property taxes paid, in an urban renewal area if the taxes are
 12 25 imposed against retail property.  The bill also provides that
 12 26 the duration of any such written agreement shall not exceed
 12 27 three years and is not subject to renewal.
 12 28    The bill provides that a municipality that has adopted an
 12 29 ordinance after March 1, 2003, but before July 1, 2003, shall
 12 30 not divide incremental revenues and shall not issue bonds
 12 31 payable with the revenues or incur other obligations or
 12 32 indebtedness payable from the revenues for the fiscal year
 12 33 beginning July 1, 2003.  If a municipality violates this
 12 34 provision, the municipality must immediately pay the bonds in
 12 35 full and meet the obligations or agreements and repeal the
 13  1 ordinance authorizing the division of revenues.
 13  2    The bill strikes the provision that requires that the
 13  3 amount of the assessment limitation (i.e., rollback) for an
 13  4 entire urban renewal area be subtracted from the base
 13  5 valuation only.
 13  6    The bill provides that if a municipality violates a
 13  7 provision of Code chapter 403, the urban renewal law, when
 13  8 approving or implementing an urban renewal plan or urban
 13  9 renewal project, the municipality will not be allowed to
 13 10 divide incremental revenues for a period of 10 years after the
 13 11 violation.  The bill also provides that the municipality shall
 13 12 not be eligible for certain state appropriations, loans, or
 13 13 grants.
 13 14    The bill takes effect upon enactment and applies
 13 15 retroactively to the assessment year beginning January 1,
 13 16 2003, for urban renewal areas and urban renewal projects
 13 17 established before, on, or after that date.
