e. Staff report on disposition of property in

Mrs. Kolata noted that we have received a
proposal for Lot 5 in Phase II of the Toll
Road Industrial Park. Mr. Riggs
summarized the proposal.
Mr. Riggs noted that Lot 5 is located
between Crystal Mountain Water and
Midwest Embroidery. The proposed
purchase price is $74,750 which is $23,000
per acre, the current listing price for the
property. Chris Davey submitted the
proposal, representing a yet -to -be -named
liability company. Cressy & Everett
Development Company will be constructing
a build -to -suit building for a local firm,
Circle International, which is currently
located on McGill Street in the Toll Road
Industrial Park. Circle International is a
business consulting firm which provides
local businesses with the means to export
their goods and services to overseas
markets. This is an expansion of their South
Bend facility on McGill Street. Circle

International's proposal is to construct a
13,260 square foot building. Of that space,
2,500 square feet will be for office space
and the remainder for distribution/warehouse
space. The staff recommends accepting the
proposal as submitted.
Mr. Hojnacki commented that this project
appears to offer local firms considerable
potential for the future in the international
market.
Upon a motion by Mr. Hojnacki, seconded
by Mr. Hunt and unanimously carried, the
Commission accepted the proposal from
Circle International for Lot 5 in the Toll
Road Industrial Park.
f. Commission approval requested for
Resolution No. 1389 approving an
application for personal property tax
deduction for property located at 3601
McGill Street in the Airport Economic
Development Area. (Precision Millwork &
Plastics)
Mr. Beitzinger read the staff report on the
project. Precision Millwork & Plastics is a
manufacturer of custom wood and plastic
products, including store displays, boxes and
industrial products. Their project calls for
the replacement of a panel saw. The saw
they are currently using was manufactured in
1965 and is manually operated, slow and
inefficient. The new saw will be computer
controlled with greater tolerances and

efficiencies. Precision Millwork has
indicated that the new saw is critical to
maintaining customers and allowing for
taking on new projects effectively and
efficiently. The total cost of the new
equipment is estimated at $75,000.
It is estimated that this project will create
two (2) new permanent full-time jobs
representing an annual payroll of $40,000
and will maintain twelve (12) existing
permanent full-time and part-time jobs with
an annual payroll of $250,000.
A review of the tax abatements previously
granted finds that Precision Millwork was
granted a three year real property tax
abatement. They are in compliance with the
reporting requirements for the previous
abatement.
The building commissioner has reviewed this
project and has found the property to be
properly zoned for the proposed use.
A review of the tax abatement target areas
finds that the property is not located in an
area presently designated as a Tax
Abatement Impact Area and is also located
in the Airport Economic Development Area,
which is a Tax Incremental Financing
Allocation Area.
Precision Millwork & Plastics meets the
qualifications for a five (5) year personal

property tax abatement under the Tax
Abatement Ordinance.
A review of the cost of the abatement shows
that, without abatement, the project will
generate approximately $7,334 in new taxes
over the five year period. With abatement,
the project will generate approximately
$1,300. Therefore, the cost of the
abatement is approximately $6,034 over the
five year period.
Mr. Montgomery noted that he started this
company about five years ago in
approximately 1,500 square feet on Miami
Street. They currently have about 15,000
square feet in their present facility in the
Airport Industrial Park. Their customers
have increased to a national market and they
must build their products more
competitively. This computer controlled
equipment is necessary for them to be
competitive.
Upon a motion by Mr. Hunt, seconded by
Mr. Hcjnacki and unanimously carried, the
Commission approved Resolution No. 1389
approving an application for personal
property tax deduction for property located
at 3601 McGill Street in the Airport

g. Commission approval requested for
Resolution No. 1390 related to acquisition
of property in the Sample -Ewing
Development Area by Eminent Domain.
Mrs. Kolata explained that the Commission
had previously sent purchase offers for three
properties that it was interested in
purchasing and moving the houses. The
Frisons owned one of those properties.
They also own these three vacant lots and
want to discuss all of the property as part of
one transaction. Resolution No. 1390 sets
the offering price for the three vacant lots
and authorizes the staff to send purchase
offers for the three lots.
Upon a motion by Mr. Hunt, seconded by
Mr. Hcjnacki and unanimously carried, the
Commission approved Resolution No. 1390
related to acquisition of property in the
Sample -Ewing Development Area by
Eminent Domain.

Corporation. Garphyttan Wire is a
manufacturer of valve spring wire for the
automotive industry. State of the art
machinery and equipment will be purchased
and brought in by Garphyttan for
manufacturing the wire. The total cost of
the building is estimated at $3 million, while
the total cost of the equipment is estimated
at $8.9 million.
It is estimated that this project will create
approximately forty (40) new permanent
full-time jobs in the first year, representing
an annual payroll of approximately
$1,500,000.
Garphyttan has not been granted any
previous tax abatement. The property is
properly zoned for the proposed use.
The property is not located in an area
presently designated as a Tax Abatement
Impact Area, but is located in the Airport
Economic Development Area, which is a
Tax Incremental Financing Allocation Area.
Garphyttan meets the qualifications for a ten
(10) year real property tax abatement and
for a five (5) year personal property tax
abatement under the Tax Abatement
Ordinance.
A review of the cost of the real property tax
abatement shows that without abatement the
project will generate approximately
$1,512,276 in new taxes over a ten year

period. With abatement the project will
generate approximately $763,612.
Therefore, the cost of the 10 year real
property tax abatement will be
approximately $748,499.
A review of the cost of the personal
property tax abatement shows that without
abatement the project will generate
approximately $870,276 in new taxes. With
abatement the project will generate
approximately $154,317. Therefore, the
cost of the five year personal property tax
abatement will be approximately $715,959.
Mr. Hughes noted that Project Future has
been working with this firm for about five
years. It is a Swedish company that has
been in business for over 90 years. They
sell valve spring wire to valve spring
manufacturers in the United States. Their
market has grown such that they now need a
plant in the United States. The company
reinvigorated their search for a location last
spring, concentrating on the midwest. Mr.
Hughes noted that one of the critical issues
in the decision to locate in South Bend was
that all the infrastructure was in place in the
area. The company will locate in the H. G.
Baus Centre, a ten acre site bounded on the
east by Commerce Drive and on the north
by Nimtz Parkway. They will employ about
40 people and hope to double their size,
depending on their success in the American
market.

Mrs. Kolata explained that in order to get
their permanent financing on the Central
High School Apartments, the developers
need to restructure their agreements with the
Commission for the land around it from a
situation in which the developer owns the
property, leased it to the Commission to
make public improvements and then
subleased it back, to a situation in which the
Commission owns the property and the
developer leases it from the Commission. In
order for the Commission to purchase the
property we need to have two appraisals of
it.
Jerome Michaels has proposed to perform an
appraisal for $1,000. McCloskey -Pitts will
