Elyria, Ohio State of the City
The Smart Re-development Process:
Managing Our Way Out of Decline and Into a Brighter Future
2015: A Year Of:
Re-thinking…
Re-focusing…
Re-inventing…
Returning…
Right-Sized and Ready for a Brighter Future
By Elyria Mayor Holly C. Brinda, MPA
February 9, 2016
“The pessimist complains about the
wind. The optimist expects it to
change. The realist adjusts the sail.”
-William A. Ward
2015 Trends in Elyria:
What They Mean…
• Severely-limited local revenues is limiting core basic
services and slowing forward progress; we must increase
the General Fund.
• We will not regain our peak population and therefore we
must shrink.
• We have a surplus of older housing stock and vacant lots
that we must transform.
• We have businesses and industries that want to grow that
are land-locked, so we must free-up land and develop
infrastructure.
What They Mean…
• 80% of new jobs will come from existing businesses and
industries, so we must focus on keeping what we have, and
removing barriers to growth before they become barriers.
• Young professionals are locating in contiguous communities
that are offering more up-scale housing and more quality of
life amenities; Elyria must offer more upscale mixed-use
residential and quality of life opportunities.
• Cities in the county with more favorable economic
circumstances, a higher skilled and educated population,
higher expectations and more buildable land have more
bargaining power and distinct business attraction
advantages with investors over Elyria; so we must capitalize
on our strengths and change the way we do business.
What They Mean…
• Losing Bendix despite offering aggressive incentives, as well as
conversations with other businesses, is causing the City to
carefully examine how business is being conducted in the County.
• The traditional model of inter-municipal competition in Lorain
County where there is no anti-poaching policy or agreements
between and among municipalities and other economic
development entities to help protect invested home cities that
have already incentivized businesses with taxpayer money is
detrimental to Elyria and the entire county.
• Midway Mall and the midway area are over-commercialized so we
must help guide downsizing and more mixed-use re-development.
What They Mean…
• Downtown is at a tipping point for reinvestment and we
must capitalize on the opportunity and our many assets to
create a place capable of attracting upscale professionals
from neighboring communities.
• Even with major crime down, Elyria’s reputation for crime is
a deterrent and we must increase our police force.
• The lack of a comprehensive transportation system is
preventing Elyrians from connecting with jobs and
commerce throughout the region and we must address
county-wide and regional transit issues.
“Some changes look negative on the surface,
but you will soon realize that space is being
created in your life for something new to
emerge.”
-Eckhart Tolle
The Good News…Elyria is Responding to
the Challenges - Strategically
• In our planning we are capitalizing on our significant assets
for rebuilding: a river, two waterfalls, and magnificent parks;
a historic downtown; a Midway area at the nexus of three
major highways; strong education, healthcare and
manufacturing sectors; diversity and more.
• We have a new Economic Development Plan and are making
strides working with the existing business community and
others to remove barriers to growth and encourage reinvestment in Elyria.
• We have completed the JumpStart Elyria
market analysis and re-development strategy
for downtown and the Midway area and are
working with over 30 community partners to
leverage redevelopment projects. We are
also working with new asset managers at
Midway Mall to help develop a right-sizing
and public financing strategy for the
property.
• We are beginning to implement mix-use
business (and eventually residential)
development downtown to attract more
residents and visitors, including young
professionals from neighboring communities.
• We are linking federal HUD investment and other grant funds to
strategic initiatives in the city designed to (1) acquire residential
properties on or near the riverfront for future upscale
development; (2) target neighborhood revitalization efforts to
build synergy with other investments including school
construction, parks redevelopment, downtown revitalization and
transportation; and (3) incentivize some neighborhoods in
industrial areas to keep emptying to create more space for
business expansion and improve residents’ quality of life.
• We are working with the Lorain County Metro Parks to link
green space, bike trails, and area parks and downtown and
other parts of the city.
• We are advocating for an Anti-poaching policy and
agreements with other county municipalities and economic
development organizations.
• We are working with the county to expand transportation options
at the Lorain County Community and Transportation Center. $9
million has been assembled to return passenger rail, but county
operating obstacles remain and the lack of transit is a focus.
• We are addressing financial and service delivery concerns through
ongoing efficiency measures, increased accountability and a request
to voters on March 15 to temporarily increase the city’s income tax
for five years by .5 percent.
The Financial Realities:
• The General Fund has been on a significant decline since
2006.
• There is no money to address the $4.3 million of General Fund
capital improvements needs to replace aging equipment,
vehicles, or building and grounds maintenance.
• In the last 18 months 50 positions have gone unfilled, either
through layoffs, attrition or consolidation – including 32
fulltime positions.

26,000,000
25,000,000

The Financial Realities:
• This decline is caused by the repeal of the Inheritance Tax,
decline of Local Government funds from the state, and the
expiration of stimulus funds

To Remedy the Financial Crisis…
• Elyria City Council has placed a .5% temporary income tax
increase on the March 15 ballot.
• Issue #6 will generate $6.2 million per year, and will be used
for resurfacing and repair of residential streets, additional
police officers and equipment, park improvements, economic
development including a fiber optic system to help retain and
attract businesses.

Universal Adoption of a Lorain County Business
Attraction and Anti-Poaching Protocol
The protocol seeks to establish a commitment by the mayors, managers,
trustees, commissioners, and economic development organizations of Lorain
County to:
• Not actively pursue the re-location of a business located in another
community in the county that has not indicated a desire to re-locate.
• In the event that a business residing in a different participating community
contacts the mayor, manager, trustee, or economic development director
of the undersigned community – or Team Lorain County staff, county
commissioner, county economic development staff, or Lorain County Port
Authority directly or through a representative, to discuss possible relocation, we agree to follow the following protocol:
o Advise the business that we want to assist them meet their needs so that they
are successful.
o Ask the business whether it has advised the community in which it is currently
located, that it is considering a re-location and, if not, whether it objects to
our advising the home community of the inquiry. If the home community has
not been advised, and the business does not object, we will promptly notify
the mayor, manager, or trustees of the home community in writing of the
inquiry.
o We will not publicly propose or offer incentives to the business in
support of a re-location until either the business verifies that it has
notified the home community of the possible re-location or we have
given that notice.
o We will advise the business, if asked, that Lorain County may condition
the awarding of county incentives and assistance on the receipt of
consent from the community in which the business is located.
o We will agree to discuss the possible re-location with the mayor,
manager, or trustees of the affected home community if asked by
those officials.
o Without making any commitment to revenue share, we agree to have
a discussion about the possibility of a revenue sharing agreement with
the mayor, manager, or trustees of the affected home community if
asked by those officials.
o If a company in one community approaches another community about
incentives for moving, if the company employs 200 workers and was
thinking of expanding to 250 with the move, the community of relocation, the county, and the Lorain County Port Authority would only
be allowed to offer incentives on the 50 additional jobs.
o In the event that a business with operations in one or more
participating communities contacts a participating community to
indicate that it is considering consolidating its operations in the
contacted community, that community shall treat the situation as it
would a potential re-location and follow the protocol outlined above.
o In the event that the County or Team Lorain County learns that a
business is considering relocating or consolidating operations from
one or more participating communities to a non-participating
community or communities, the County or Team Lorain County shall
have the responsibility to execute the protocols listed above.
o The County and Team Lorain County strongly encourage all Lorain
County communities to participate in this agreement. The County and
Team Lorain County reserve the right to consider participation in this
agreement in evaluating applications for incentives and other services.
