The new equipment and building improvements are necessary to maintain $20,000,000 in annual sales and provide capacity for another $10,000,000 to $15,000,000. While this project will not create any permanent new jobs, the potential loss of jobs is a sixty percent work force reduction without the project. The project will maintain one hundred and thirty three (133) existing permanent full time and existing part time jobs with an annual payroll of $2,988,000. Mr. Inks noted that Automatic Technologies has received two previous tax abatements. They received both real and personal tax abatements in 1985, indicating they would create 235 jobs and retain 300 jobs. Presently their employees number 133. In 1987 a subsidiary company, Aquarius, received a real and personal tax abatement, indicating they would create 65 jobs and retain 95 jobs. They presently employ 88. Automatic Technologies has indicated that employment did reach 530 people; however, recent downturns in sales have resulted in the reduced number of current employees. The petitioner has complied with the reporting requirements for the previous abatements. CW1 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - January 21, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) e. continued... The property is properly zoned for the proposed use. The property is not located in an area designated as a Tax Abatement Impact Area, but is located in the Airport Economic Development Area, which is a Tax Incremental Financing Allocation Area. The project qualifies for a five year personal property tax abatement under the Tax Abatement Ordinance. Without abatement, the taxes on the $3,146,000 worth of equipment would be approximately $285,000. With abatement, the taxes will be approximately $50,594. Therefore, the cost of the abatement will be approximately $234,731 over the five year period. Paul Freshour, representing Automatic Technologies, noted that the present machinery is 10 - 12 years old. The average life of such machines is 7 - 8 years. The old machinery is not efficient, causing a lot of scrap. Automatic Technologies projected sales is high, but that is based on installing this new equipment. Upon a motion by Mr. Donoho, seconded by Mr. Piasecki and unanimously carried, the Commission approved Resolution No. 1217 approving an application for personal property tax deduction for property located at 3603 U COMMISSION APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 1217 APPROVING AN APPLICATION FOR PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX DEDUCTION FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3603 PROGRESS DRIVE IN THE AIRPORT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AREA.

(Central High Associates Limited Partnership) Mr. Inks read the staff report on the project. Central High Associates Limited Partnership (The Alexander Company is its general partner) proposes to restore, renovate and convert the historic Central High School into multi- family housing. A total of 102 apartments will be created on the site. Typical project amenities will include modern kitchens with a full range of appliances, mini - blinds, security locked intercom entry system and extensive landscaping. The total projected cost of the project is estimated to be $9,000,000. The estimated market value of the property after completion of the project is $3,500,000 (using the net operating income method). The project will create three (3) new permanent full time jobs, representing an annual payroll of $45,000. The project will also create a series of construction -10- South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - January 21, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) f. continued... and construction related jobs during the renovation process. Central High Associates has not been granted any previous tax abatement consideration; however, RKE, Inc. (dba Stephenson Mill, another affiliate of The Alexander Company) was granted a ten year real property abatement for the Opelika Building in October 1993. The property is properly zoned for the proposed use. The property is located in an area presently designated as a tax Abatement Impact Area and is in the South Bend Central Development Area Tax Incremental Financing Area. The project qualifies for a ten year real property tax abatement under the tax abatement ordinance. Without abatement, the project would generate approximately $1,679,475 in new taxes over a ten year period. With abatement, the project will generate approximately $848,135 in new taxes. Therefore the cost of the abatement is approximately $831,340 over the ten year period. Ms. Auburn pointed out that the property is presently generating no taxes. The new development, even with tax abatement, will generate $831,340 in taxes. That is still a significant amount. -11- co South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - January 21, 1994 6.
