There was, at that time, stiff competition among two other Southern California cities to attract this firm, Based on the superiority of sites in the State College Industrial Park and the incentives this Agency is able to provide, this major firm has decided to locate in San Bernardino. They plan to build a 130,000 sq. ft. manufacturing plant in the State College Industrial Park (see attached map) for the manufacturing of plastic containers. The plant will be valued at *8,000,000 and employ 80-100 persons, many of whom will be entry level. Staff recommends that the Agency participate in the development by reimbursing this firm approximately *400,000 (equivalent to 5 years of tax increment) through several available incentives. Initially, the proposed participation would be in the form of a land "write down" in the amount of *188,000. Approximately two areas of the proposed site is very limited in use due to a 70 foot drainage easement across the rear of the property. Staff proposes that the Agency absorb the cost of these two acres (*94,OOO/per acre; *2.l6/sq. ft.) and through escrow pay to the existing owner of the site (Campeau o Corporation) approximately *188,000. In addition, staff recommends that the Japanese firm be included in the Employment Linkage Program, allowing them the maximum reimbursement per employee (*1,500), up to hoO,ooo. The remaining *112,000 may be used to defray the costs of offsite improvements and construction of a railroad spur. The firm has indicated that this project will be only their initial investment in the community, and they have long range plans for expansion. They have requested Agency assistance in two other areas. They desire IDB and UDAG assistance. They will need a UDAG to avoid the $10 million capital expenditure cap placed on IDBs. The UDAG will increase the cap up to $20 million. On July 2, 1985 the Redevelopment Committee reviewed the proposed Agreement and recommended approval. Staff is requesting the following: a) Instruct staff and legal counsel to prepare an Owner Participation Agreement as described above. b) Instruct staff to prepare and apply for a UDAG. Q c) Approve a public hearing date to be held by staff on July 26, 1985 (this is a required, informational-type meeting), and approve a public hearing date to be held by City Council on July 29, 1985, at 9:00 a.m. 75-0264 l225J/OJ 07-15-85 . o c J o ()1t .. ~ I o . .
