Hene!erson Director of community Development FROM: Val Mahabir Economic Development Consultant SUBJECT: Bli1TIlRPRI.. Ion APPLICA'1'IOJI DATE: May 8, 1990 COPIES: Mayor Holcomb; City Ac!ministrator; File ------------------------------------------------------------- On April 30, 1990, I attene!ee! a workshop on Enterprise Zones tJ1at wa. cone!uctee! by the Department of Commerce. The purpose of the workshop was to provie!e information on com- pleting the preliminary application for e!esignation as an Enterprise Zone. The following are .Ollle of the it8llle e!is- cussee! in that workshop ane! also my observations regarc!ing the application proces.: 1. The first item of note is chat this current progru (legislatee! under Assembly Bill 251) authorizes the creation of fifteen (15) new Enterprise Zones through 1992 (eight (6) to be established une!er current competition). 2. Assembly Bill 251 known as the Nolan Enterprise Zone Act has enactee! key chang.. to Enterpri.e Zone program from that previously authorizee! under the Waters Bill. 3. A key difference in the Nolan versus the Waters program is that companies wishing to participate are not restricted to hiring employees from the Zone in orc!er to gain certain incentive.. Also, the Zone is made up of an eligible area and may inclue!e either an industrial, cODlDlercial area or both, but unlike the Waters Bill, does not include a residential area. 4. Based on everything that I heare! in the workshop, it would seem that competition woule! be basee! to a large e!egree an a proposer'. long term cODlDlitment to the project. This must be evie!encee! by specific action of the Mayor ane! CODlDlon Council in relationship to that cODlDlitment. Items that must be inclue!ee! in the proposal includes resolu- INTEROFFICE MEMdC)NDUM: 9005-1901 BNTBRPRISB Ion APPLICATION May 8, 1990 Page 2 o o tion., organizational atructure, ataffing ane! bue!get.

One area of the preaentation that receivec! a great e!eal of attention wa. the marketing plan. In fact, a proposer must attain at leaat sixty percent (150') of: the total score available Unc!er each of the following three (3) component. of the plan to meet the minimum threshole! of competition: a) Marketing (250 points available). b) Available property ane! businessea (200 points avail- able). c) Job e!evelopment (175 points available). (Note that a marketing stuc!y was completee! for the City relating to the City'S previous application for Enterprise Zone e!esignation. ~e marketing plan will be basee! partially on that stue!y. However, current e!ay e!emogra- pbica, market cone!itions ane! other ~actors will e!ictate . th~ scope of the plan). The section relating to "avail- able property ane! businesses" woule! require a survey of the area. ~ o 15. The overall process of application woule! entail several actions to be taken by the Mayor and Common Council, some of which relate to resolutions to be inclue!ee! in the proposal, while others relate to organizational .tructures and staffil'lg. The relationship of certain organizations, such as the Chambers of CODlDlerce, local real estate brokers ane! other entities (inclue!ing those to be created, such as an Enterprise Zone business organization) must all be referenced in the proposal, with sufficient e!etail to provie!e a complete ane! thorough une!erstanding of the program. 7. The City'S incentives will playa deciding role in this competition. The incentives must be easily packagee!, realistic ane! above all e!eliverable. A separate plan may need to be e!eveloped for "fast traCking" of the City'S permits and licenses, along with plans for marketing of incentives. .. .
