South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />RE: Tax Abatement for Hoosier Tank and Manufacturing, Incorporated <br />November 24, 2009 <br />Page 2 <br />bracket dies and a powder coating system. The equipment coming from the competitor is used and all of <br />it will come from outside the State of Indiana. The powder coat system is new. The total estimated cost <br />of the equipment is $950,000. <br />Total taxes to be abated during the (5) five-year abatement period are estimated at $17,243. Total <br />additional taxes to be paid as a result of the project during the five-year abatement period are estimated at <br />$48,141. <br />EMPLOYMENT IMPACT <br />Per the petition, it is estimated that the project will create six to ten (6 - 10) new, permanent full-time <br />positions with an annual payroll of $200,000 to $335,000. The project will also maintain fifty-two (52) <br />existing permanent full-time positions with a total annual payroll of $1,800,000. <br />ABATEMENT QUALIFICATION <br />A review of the tax abatements previously granted, finds that the petitioner has been associated <br />with or granted the following previous abatements: <br />Term/Type Resolution No. Date <br />5 year personal property 2013-93 2/22/1993 <br />5 year personal property 3213-03 7/28/2003 <br />10 year real property 3234-03 8/25/2003 <br />5 year personal property 3843-OS (Reconfirm & Inc.) 6/27/2005 <br />2. The Building Commissioner has reviewed the petition and finds the property to be properly zoned <br />for the proposed project. <br />A review of the South Bend Redevelopment designation areas finds that the property is located in <br />the Airport Economic Development Area, which is a Tax Incremental Allocation Area; therefore, <br />the petition for personal property tax deduction must first be approved by the South Bend <br />Redevelopment Commission. <br />4. A review of the Tax Abatement Ordinance No. 9394-03 finds that the petitioner meets the <br />qualifications fora (5) five-year personal property tax abatement under section 2-84.2, Tangible <br />Personal Property Tax Abatement. <br />
