(United Beverages) Mr. Beitzinger read the staff report on the project. United Beverage is primarily engaged in the distribution of beer, ale, dark beer and non - alcoholic beer products. The proposed project includes the construction of an addition to the existing building adding in excess of 20,000 square feet. The use of the addition will be for the expanded needs of the petitioner and is essential to accommodate the continued growth of the business. The total project cost is estimated at $607,000. The rehabilitation project will create fifteen new permanent jobs within the first year, representing a new annual payroll of $200,000 and will maintain thirty -seven existing permanent full time and no part time jobs with an annual payroll of $1,400,000. ,.0. -5- NO BIDS WERE RECEIVED FOR PARCELS 9- 32 AND 9 -33 IN THE STUDEBAKER CORRIDOR PORTION OF THE SAMPLE - EWING DEVELOPMENT AREA _,uth Bend Redevelopment Commission egular Meeting - March 18, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) d. continued... United Beverages has not been granted any previous tax abatement consideration. 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 also in the Sample -Ewing Development Area, a Tax Incremental Financing Allocation Area. United Beverages meets the qualifications for a six - year real property tax abatement under the tax abatement ordinance. Assuming a constant tax rate and a project cost of $607,000, the project is expected to generate approximately $180,000 in new "'' taxes without abatement. With abatement, the project will generate approximately $74,732 in new taxes. Therefore, the cost of the abatement will be approximately $106,071. Upon a motion by Mr. Donoho, seconded by Mr. Piasecki and unanimously carried, the Commission approved Resolution No. 1237 approving an application for real property tax deduction for property located at 840 Prairie Avenue in the Sample -Ewing Development Area (United Beverages) . e. Staff report on Disposition of Property in the Airport Economic Development Area. (Toll Road Industrial Park) Mr. Riggs explained that the Department of Redevelopment has received a proposal from BHD Properties L.L.C. for Lot 11 of the -6- COMMISSION APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 1237 APPROVING AN APPLICATION FOR REAL PROPERTY TAX DEDUCTION FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 840 PRAIRIE AVENUE IN THE SAMPLE -EWING DEVELOPMENT AREA (UNITED BEVERAGES) )uth Bend Redevelopment Commission 'Regular Meeting - March 18, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) e. continued... Toll Road Industrial Park. BHD Properties is a limited liability holding company for Dearborn Crane & Engineering Co. of Mishawaka. Dearborn, in the area since 1955, produces overhead bridge cranes for material handling purposes and currently employs 25 people full time. Lot 11 is a 3.72 acre parcel located on Ralph Jones Court. This is one of four Redevelopment -owned lots in the Toll Road Industrial Park. In December 1992, the Commission set the Fair Re -use Value of this parcel at $54,800 (or $14,700 /acre). The lot is currently heavily wooded with large (12" diameter) trees. The Fair Re -use Value of the site was reduced by nearly $12,000 from the actual market value to account for the increased development costs of site clearance. The proposal calls for 240 equal monthly payments of $301.77 over the 20 -year lease term. The total amount of lease payments will equal $72,425.89. The payments are based on a 6.65 % interest rate over the lease term. The proposal also requires that Dearborn would not be penalized for pre- payment. Due to bond requirements, the Commission cannot transfer title of property unless a certain amount (bond defeasance amount) is received from the land sale. The proposed $40,000 for Lot 11 will not satisfy the bond defeasance amount. The Lease agreement between the Commission and Dearborn can allow for pre - payment; p however, actual title to the parcel could not J -7- ` )uth Bend Redevelopment Commission egular Meeting - March 18, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) t- e. continued... be transferred until the end of the lease term (20 years) . The Proposal Forms are complete and a letter of credit in the amount of $4,000 has been received as a faithful performance guaranty. The staff recommends that the Commission approve the proposal as submitted, subject to the review of proposed building, site and landscaping plans by the staff for compliance with Toll Road Industrial Park covenants and Design Guidelines drafted for the Airport Economic Development Area. The staff also requests the Commission's approval for staff to determine a "buy -out" price to be included in the Lease agreement. This "buy -out" price would be the price which Dearborn would pay to satisfy Redevelopment's bond requirements which would allow immediate transfer of title from Redevelopment to Dearborn. Mr. Larry Dunville, Dearborn Crane, showed site plans for the building and explained the project further. He noted that overhead bridge cranes can be anywhere from 15 feet to 100 feet long and usually are one long piece. The loading doors are at the front of the building so trucks can maneuver the cranes efficiently in a minimum amount of land. The building will have a single pitch roof in anticipation of future expansion, at which time a mirrored building will be constructed on the site. N1 )uth Bend Redevelopment Commission &tegular Meeting - March 18, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) e. continued... Dearborn Crane has been in business for forty -seven years, but has recently decided to specialize in the cranes and shed other, smaller product lines. Since doing so, they have grown 50 %. Although the building to be constructed won't be opulent, it is intended to be a showplace for the company, using the trees on the site as much as possible for screening and landscaping. They plan to begin construction immediately and complete construction by winter 1994. Mrs. Kolata asked how large the building will be and where on the site plan the offices would be. Mr. Dunville responded that the building is just over 30,100 sft. The office will be 4,200 sft at the back of the building. Upon a motion by Mr. Donoho, seconded by Mr. Sharp and unanimously carried, the Commission accepted the proposal from BHD Properties to lease - purchase Lot 11 in the Toll Road Industrial Park to BHD Properties for $40,000 to be paid over 20 years at $301.77 /month. An interest rate of 6.65 % will be charged for a total cost of $72,425.89 over the 20 years. f.

NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) f. continued... Mr. Riggs explained that Resolution No. 1238 addresses several things that need to be done regarding the Development Plan for the Airport Economic Development Area: 1) expands the development area and corresponding allocation area to include the recently annexed 140 acres north of Cleveland Road between Mayflower Road and the Toll Road Industrial Park; 2) removes Parcel J from the acquisition list of the Development Plan; 3) adds parcels owned by the Airport Authority to the acquisition list, as well as land the Airport Authority conveyed to the Commission previously, but was not ever on the acquisition list. Parcel J which is being removed from the acquisition list is a parcel we no longer intend to acquire, but which may be purchased and developed privately. Mrs. Kolata explained that it has always been our intention that the planning area for Airport 2010 extend beyond the city limits. As we annex land into the city limits, we intend to bring the newly annexed land into the Development Area.
