REGULAR MEETING AUGUST 12, 2013
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />Sean Meehan, 2416 River Avenue, Mishawaka, Indiana, and Andy Walton, St. Rd 2, South
<br />Bend, Indiana, made the presentation for this bill.
<br />
<br />Mr. Meehan advised that they plan to rehabilitate a vacant building which was formerly a VFW
<br />Hall into a brew pub. They will manufacture beer for area restaurant, retail stores, and their
<br />“storefront”. The building will be renovated in two different sections with one side being the
<br />brewery side (2,400 square feet) and the other side the storefront (5,000 square feet.) The
<br />storefront will serve manufactured beer on premise as well as packaged beer for take-away.
<br />Food will be served on the premises. They intend to build a structure on top of the flat roof to
<br />the west which will act as a façade as well as add continuity to the existing structure. This will
<br />act as the brewing space. The total cost of rehabilitating the building is approximately $320,000
<br />and the total cost for the equipment is estimated at $114,037. Total taxes to be abated during the
<br />real property tax abatement are estimated at $14,406 and total new taxes to be paid over three
<br />years are estimated at $14,506. Per the petition, it is estimated that the project will create 21
<br />permanent, full-time and 5 permanent, part-time jobs within the first year, representing a new
<br />annual payroll of $752,460.
<br />
