Re:
2015 Budgets of the Allen County Fort Wayne Capital Improvement Board of
Managers (Grand Wayne Center) and Visit Fort Wayne
Dear Council Members:
Please find enclosed the 2015 Budget for the Allen County Fort Wayne Capital Improvement
Board of Managers (the Grand Wayne Center).
Pursuant to the statutory provisions governing the activities of the Board, we are submitting for
your review and approval the operating budget for the year 2015 which reflects both the projected
revenues as well as the operating expenses for the ensuing year. This letter also very briefly describes
the process for adopting the budget and the process for disbursing the funds by the Board.
At the time when the budget is considered, the Members of the Board are informed of the
revenues and expenditures for the year and receive information and input from the various standing
committees as to the available resources and needs for the ensuing year.
The proposed budget reflects the income from all sources as well as the probable expenditures
by the Board in order to conduct its business during the year 2015. After a thorough discussion by the
seven-member Board, the budget is voted upon and adopted by a majority vote. By Statute, the
proposed budget also includes the Supplemental Food and Beverage Tax revenue and corresponding
potential disbursement of those funds for economic development projects as approved by the Board
during the upcoming year.
Should you have any questions in connection with the procedure for the adoption of the
budget, the payment of the individual budgeted expenses, or the income and expenses incurred by the
Board in the past year, please feel free to direct your questions to any Member of the Board: to the
Director, Barton Shaw; to the President, Nancy Jordan; to the Controller, Yogesh Parikh; to the
Attorney for the Board, Douglas E. Johnston; or to the Office Manager, Carole Lynn Copeland. The
requested information will be collected for you and reviewed with you.
Pursuant to statutory requirements, the budget of Visit Fort Wayne (formerly the Convention
and Visitors Bureau) is also being presented to you at the same time. The Board requested and Visit
Fort Wayne agreed to be bound by all of the rules promulgated by the Indiana State Board of Accounts

benefits that can be reasonably expected to result from the
installation of new manufacturing equipment; and,
5.
That the totality of benefits is sufficient to justify the deduction;

BE IT ALSO RESOLVED, that if any part, parts, clause or portion of this Resolution
shall be adjudged invalid or unconstitutional, such invalidity or unconstitutionality shall not

TAX PHASE-IN ANALYSIS UPDATE:
2013 PAYABLE 2014
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES
NOVEMBER 2014
1
Annually, the Department of Planning Services updates the original study of the tax phase-in program published
by Allen County Department of Planning Services – Tax Abatement: A 1991 Analysis of Allen County’s
Program1. This particular update covers the 2013 Payable 2014 tax year and includes data for the companies
and taxing districts located in unincorporated Allen County as well as the cities of New Haven and Woodburn
and the towns of Grabill, Monroeville, and Huntertown and which use County Economic Development staff to
administer the County’s tax phase-in program. The data and information pertaining to the City of Fort Wayne
is not included in this analysis unless specified.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Since the beginning of the Allen County Tax Abatement Program (1982) through 2013, there has been 305 tax
phase-in’s granted in unincorporated Allen County and the smaller cities and towns. Based upon information
provided when these companies applied for their tax phase-in, they have committed to invest more than $2.375
billion. These are significant dollars being invested in Allen County by companies who believe this is a great
place to do business. These tax deductions phase in a company’s taxes over time, which helps ease the costs
associated with start-up, new equipment, and expansions.

2013 APPLICATIONS FOR STATEMENT OF BENEFITS / ERA DESIGNATION
Allen County saw a significant increase in applications from 2012 to 2013. The number of applications close to
doubled from eight applications in 2012 to fifteen approved applications in 2013. Investment dollars in new or
additional construction increased dramatically in 2013 from 2012. The amount invested in real property from
2012 ($6,793,000) to 2013 ($53,311,850) demonstrates an increase of approximately 685% in companies
looking to expand in the area. Personal property investment, or investment in equipment, also increased from
2012 to 2013. The large projects like FedEx Ground and CSC-Indiana, LLC in New Haven invested heavily in
equipment. In 2012, investment in new equipment amounted to $14,826,220 while in 2013 that number was
estimated at $128,876,796. Table 2 on the following page details the proposed investments that were brought
before area councils in 2013 and the estimated savings for each project.

Moon River LLC, dba Parco Inc., is a light manufacturing company who specializes in safety guarding and
ergonomic workstations. The company was originally located in Huntertown but moved to a vacant building on
Front Street in Allen County in January of 2013. The Huntertown Town Council and Allen County Council
signed an Inter-local Cooperation Agreement in February, 2013 where Huntertown retains the original tax phase
in for equipment that was granted in Huntertown. The 2-year vacant building deduction was granted by Allen
County for the Front Street address.
In March, Great Dane Realty LLC and BMD Agency, LLC partnered on a project for a new building to house
BMD Agency at Stonebridge Drive in Allen County’s Lafayette Township. BMD is a promotional material ad
agency who produces material for Vera Bradley, as well as other large companies in Chicago, IL. The proposed
project was initially for a $3.2 million investment in real improvements and $215,000 in new manufacturing and
information technology equipment.
At the end of March, Setzer Properties and FedEx Ground Package System were approved for a tax phase in by
the New Haven City Council. A 178,000 square foot facility was built off of Lincoln Highway East which now
houses FedEx’s new Ground Package operations. Additionally, FedEx invested more than $12 million in
logistical equipment while Setzer Properties invested another $12.5 million in the building. The project is to
generate at least $1.04 million in annual salaries with the addition of 87 new hires.
Not new to Allen County is the consistent and continuous growth of QuikCut Inc, who is located on the east
side of the county on Allen Martin Drive. The company specializes in steel fabricated parts and sandblasting
and painting of parts. QuikCut invested $1.4 million in three new pieces of equipment, which include a plasma
cutting table, a new press break, and laser machine. QuikCut also continues to hire as orders grow. This project
called for twelve new employees.
Central States Enterprises, LLC is another New Haven company who has been operating as a grain terminal
elevator since the 1970s. Their latest project announced an investment of just under $7 million in the
construction of two new silos, 132 foot concrete grain silo and another silo of 124 feet. CSE is also investing in
new conveyors, bridges, and aeration fans which total a little more than $1 million. The company plans to hire
an additional 27 employees that will create another $1.16 million in annual salaries.
3
CSC Indiana, LLC is also located in New Haven. At the Summit Street address, the company manufactures
corrugated sheets for boxes and point of purchase displays. With rising customer demands and competitor
capabilities, CSC was in need of new equipment. The $12.6 million investment was used to purchase a
110”BHS Corrugator, conveyor system, and boiler. In addition to the 27 new hires, CSC has opted to
contribute 5% back of their savings from the tax phase in.
Waterfurnace, a developer, designer, and manufacturer of energy efficient geothermal heating and cooling
systems, is located on Conservation Way, which is along Airport Expressway. In July the company presented a
project to council that would include investments of $56,500 to building improvements to accommodate new
testing and research equipment and $263,500 for that equipment. Currently, Waterfurnace employs 250 people
with annual salaries of more than $5 million.
Silverado Properties LLC came before the Allen County Council with two different projects in 2013. The first
was approved in July. Silverado partnered with a company who is doing business with General Motors as a
second stage manufacturing of robotically applied spray-in bed liners – Ground Effects. A new building was
constructed along Aboite Road just north of Lafayette Center Road. Silverado invested $2.5 million in the
42,000 square foot facility while Ground Effects invested $2.16 million in the equipment. This new employer
to the county is anticipating 160 new jobs with annual salaries of more than $4 million.
In August, Hatfield Properties / Custom Engineering and Fabrication was approved for a five year real and
personal property tax phase in and a two year vacant building deduction by the New Haven City Council. The
new company specializes in final assembly for steel fabricated equipment and is bringing 8 to 10 new jobs to
the New Haven area. Although the investment is $100,000 in new equipment and building improvements, the
company was able to fill a vacant building at 5225 New Haven Avenue.
Vera Bradley also came before the County Council with two new projects in August. The designer bag giant
continues with improvements to both their facilities at the Stonebridge addresses. The first project is the $1.6
million investment for an additional 10,000 square feet of office space at the 11222 Stonebridge Road facility,
with an additional $220,000 investment in IT equipment. The second project is an investment of more than
$18.7 million in 150,000 square feet to the Design Center at 12420 Stonebridge Road. This project also called
for an additional $1.58 million investment in new IT and logistical equipment. Together, these two projects will
allow Vera Bradley to add 128 positions and more than $7.2 million in annual payroll to the community.
Adaptive Technologies, Inc (AITF) presented before the Huntertown Town Council in September to request a
tax phase in for real improvements and new manufacturing equipment. The automated equipment design and
build company planned on an investment of $300,000 in a new 7500 square foot facility at 14220 Plank Street.
Another $160,000 investment was to be made in new manufacturing and IT equipment. The company proposed
eight new positions to add to their existing 33, bringing in an additional $332,000 in annual payroll.
Canalway Properties, dba Midwest Tile and Concrete Products is located on the east side of the county at 4309
Webster Road. The company produces reinforced precast concrete drainage structures. In September, the Allen
County Council approved a tax phase in for a $1.5 million investment for construction of a new 20,000 square
foot steel building and $800,000 in new manufacturing equipment. With the new project, Midwest Tile and
Concrete planned to hire 10 additional employees, adding just under $300,000 to its payroll.
General Motors also presented a project to council in September. The $94.5 million projected investment was
approved for a ten year 100% tax phase in for new paint shop related machinery and equipment. General
Motors later presented their project to their corporate counterparts for the opportunity to be awarded the project
at the Fort Wayne Plant. General Motors has been a presence in Allen County for almost 30 years and
continues to expand and invest in the area.

The second project submitted by Silverado Properties was in coordination with ICON Exhibits, which was the
final tax phase in approved for the year in December. Silverado Properties proposed a $6 million investment of
a new facility that will start out at 200,000 square feet and be expandable to 300,000 square feet. The new
building will house ICON’s Midwest Division Headquarters where design and construction of exhibits for trade
shows, museums, and permanent installations will take place. ICON is investing $1.3 million in new
manufacturing, logistical, and IT equipment. The project is expected to create 68 new positions, which will
more than double ICON’s current 35 employee total.
All in all, these fifteen projects have proposed to invest more than $182 million in the local community, of that,
$460,000 will be devoted to Huntertown and more than $20.6 million in New Haven. These two communities
represent 11.5% of investments made in Allen County in 2013.
EMPLOYMENT
Employment creation levels for the 2013 tax phase in applicants are considerably higher than the 2012 created
jobs. This can be attributed to the fact that the amount of applications in 2013 almost doubled the amount
submitted in 2012. In 2013 the fifteen projects approved for tax phase in combined to total 5,158 retained jobs
and 543 jobs to be created. Table 3 breaks down the employment projections for each individual company.

Another aspect of business expansion that is of
interest is the quality of the jobs created and
retained. An objective of economic
development is to increase the average wage
paid to workers which is often translated into an
increase in the quality of life for citizens. The
average annual wage for Indiana in 2012 was
$41,240³ and the national average was
$45,7902. The average for Allen County was
just below the state average and well below the
national average at $39,7983.
Figure 1 demonstrates how the average annual wages paid by the companies approved for tax phase-in in 2013
compare to the U.S. and Allen County averages. In 2013 companies applying for tax phase in now use an
updated application. Page 2 of the application asks companies to use job codes provided by the Occupational
Employment Statistics website. This website breaks down job descriptions by an occupation code and enables
companies to be more specific when listing new and/or retained employment. It also gives the county a better
understanding of a company’s wages compared with average annual wages in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Because a
majority of the criteria on the application for tax phase in is job numbers and salaries, county staff can reward
points on specific information instead of consolidating all jobs together and averaging the salaries. It is a more
effective and precise way of making sure companies are rewarded points correctly.

COMPLIANCE FORMS
By the end of May 2014, 42 companies submitted a Compliance with Statement of Benefits form (CF-1) for
2014 Payable 2015 documenting the extent to which they have followed through with their original investment
and employment projections. These forms must be filed annually to receive the actual tax deductions. Table 4
shows the percentages of the total numbers companies submitted regarding investment, jobs, and salary
compliance. The current policy for Allen County states companies must be at least 75% compliant in one of the
three categories.

As the economy has been recovering the last couple of years, companies who before may have fallen short on
their projected numbers on their Statement of Benefits, began to hire back and/or create new jobs and payroll
within the past few years.

BREAKDOWN OF DEDUCTIONS
The actual deductions received in 2014 indicate the impact tax phase in has on the current tax revenue for Allen
County. For the 2013 Payable 2014 year, approximately 73 deductions were granted to companies in Allen
County totaling $226,660,636 of assessed value. The companies saved approximately $4,690,404, but still paid
more than $9,343,991 in property taxes in 2014. Attachment A includes a detailed list of the deduction
amounts, taxes saved, and taxes paid for each company.
Figure 2 below shows the amount of true tax value deducted for tax phase ins for the past five years. The
yellow bars indicate the total amount deducted in a given year. The red bars show how much of the total tax
deductions belong to General Motors, which has been and continues to be by far the largest beneficiary of the
tax phase in program. Added last year, as seen in the green bar, is General Mills (RG-Fort Wayne) who has
started receiving deductions based on their $36 million project from 2011. This year, SDI LaFarga was added
to show that they are also receiving large deductions in regards to the total deducted in 2014. These three
companies account for more than half of the abated amounts in 2014.
The amount deducted for General Motors had started to decrease from 2008 thru 2012 because of the
depreciation of equipment. The total amount of deductions also decreased, by almost $50 million in 2009 due
to a number of old phase ins winding down or ending. However, the addition of new equipment shows that
GM’s deductions increased in 2014. In addition, larger companies designated for tax deductions from 2011 on,

have begun to receive their deductions.
Phasing in of taxes is generally the only form of assistance available to existing businesses. When compared to
the volume of other tax deductions available to other property owners, tax phase in is a diminutive piece of the
pie which is demonstrated in Figure 3 on the following page. This breakdown of deductions does include
values for the City of Fort Wayne for the purpose of showing the magnitude of the impact of tax phase in
throughout the entire county. The secondary pie is meant to demonstrate the size of the City’s program in
comparison to the County’s. Combined, the city and county had tax deductions totaling $403.67 million.
Although a majority of businesses are located within the city limits of Fort Wayne, 2014 tax deduction amounts
for county businesses exceeded the City of Fort Wayne’s amount. In addition, homeowners benefited from
approximately $7 billion in deductions in 2013 payable 2014. Changes made by the General Assembly in 2008
allowed for additional homeowner deductions and credits as well as caps on tax rates.

TAX ABATEMENT DEVELOPMENT FUND
The Tax Abatement Development Fund was established in 1992 and is funded through contributions from
companies receiving tax phase in. The fund was intended to be used as a resource to supplement future
economic development projects. To date, the fund has been used on three occasions; most recently, in 2013
approximately $420,500 was used for efforts in the Allen County Redevelopment Commission’s Land Banking
Program and work on the Bandelier Drain.
Going forward, the fund will likely be used as another resource for controlling land and certifying shovel-ready
sites as well as continuing to be a source for supplemental funding of other economic development projects.
The additional use of this fund for shovel-ready sites was added as a result of the changes made to the County
Council’s Tax Abatement Policy. The other change to the fund was the decrease in percentage of savings
contributions to be made by those companies receiving an abatement deduction from twenty percent (20%) and
ten percent (10%) to ten percent (10%) and five percent (5%).
Since 1994, 50 companies have voluntarily contributed $1,218,169. The balance of the fund as of November 13,
2014 was $188,981.57, which includes principal and interest and accounts for the disbursements and a January,
2014 loan payment of $50,000 from the Bandelier TIF Fund.

For the 2013 Payable 2014 tax year, eighteen of the companies receiving tax phase in had committed to
contributing a percentage of their tax savings back to the County (see Table 6). Of the 18 companies, 13
actually sent in their contributions. Fortunately, three out of five of the fifteen companies approved for tax
phase in 2013 did elect to participate in contributing to the fund once they begin receiving their tax deduction.

CONCLUSION
The Allen County tax phase in program still remains a viable resource for attracting and retaining local
businesses. Its impact on tax rates is minimal but justified in the fact that the new investment will eventually
benefit not only the taxing units it supports but the potential for job creation which benefits all citizens in Allen
County. In light of questions about the program’s efficacy, the updates made in August 2008 and December
2011 to the County Council’s policy will hopefully increase accountability while maintaining the business
friendly atmosphere in Allen County.

The Allen County Drug Task Force is requesting permission to apply for a Justice

$21,188.00:
o $4,206 for two officers to attend the weeklong National Technical Investigator’s
Association training in Charlotte, NC;
o $4,362 for 6 officers to attend the 3-day Indiana Drug Enforcement Agency
training in Indianapolis;
o $9,620 in equipment and related items for covert purposes; and
o $3,000 for confidential funds for purchasing drugs.
Requesting these funds from ICJI will allow the officers to stay abreast of the latest
technology used in covert operations and the latest drug trends in and around our area.
They will also be able to utilize specialized equipment and confidential funds to arrest
drug dealers and help ensure convictions.
There is a 75% match required. The salary of the Drug Task Force Secretary and one of
the detectives, which are already in the Sheriff’s budget, will be used as the match.
We have applied for, and been a successful recipient of, an ICJI grant for the Drug Task
Force for the last 29 years. Our current grant amount is $7,618.00.

To purchase a peice of equipment that can read, print, and save microfilm/microfiche to a PDF. DPS has over 500,000
images stored on film. The current microfilm reader was purchased in 1996 and it is now difficult to find parts and to
repair the machine. Broken parts make it difficult to use and the results are poor quality reproductions.
PROJECTED EXPENDITURE FOR TRANSFER-OUTLINE ITEM:
$0
There are no anticipated funding needs from these line items.
Two main reasons: 1) The $3000 in consulting services was not needed in 2014 and 2) Staff did not travel to
conferences during this year.

EXPECTED ANNUAL REVENUE:
IS REVENUE ON PACE TO MEET EXPECTATIONS?
Yes
STATUTORY GUIDELINES:
HOW WILL THIS APPROPRIATION BE USED?
Purchase a new Universal Power Supply (UPS) for the Rousseau data center to replace an existing unit that has
reached end of life.
SPECIFIC COST OF ITEM AND HOW WAS THIS COST DETERMINED?
Cost for the unit and installation is $78777. This was competitively bid by RFP.
HOW DOES THIS FIT INTO THE STRATEGIC PLAN?
This unit filters the utility power 100% of the time to accommodate fluctuations in power. If a loss of utility power
occurs, this unit maintains uninterrupted power to the data center until generator power is applied. This unit provides
power stability for all the servers and network infrastructure in the data center.
WAS THIS A PART OF THE STRATEGIC PLAN? IF NOT, WHY NOT?
In February 2014, the vendor advised that the existing unit is end of life.
IS THIS A RECURRING EXPENSE?
After 1 year warranty, there is annual maintenance which is budgeted.
WILL OTHER EXPENDITURES BE NECESSARY?
No

GRANT APPROVAL CHECKLIST
REQUIRED NARRATIVES
SUBSTANTIATE NEED FOR GRANT FUNDING
We've been invited to apply for the 2015-2016 cycle. In addition, we've been notified that we will be invited to
apply to the 2016-2017 and the 2017-2018 grant cycles at the appropriate times.
The JDAI (Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative) process is a multi-year project covering a diversity of areas
including: Admission screening policies, examining and addressing racial disparities, providing juveniles with
alternatives to secure detention, case-processing timeline reviews and improvements, monitoring confinement
conditions, enhancing data collection and analysis, and more. A Coordinator is needed to facilitate and maintain
momentum to advance this process through these many stages of change.
FINANCIAL COST/BENEFIT OF THE GRANT
The JDAI process will lower the long-term secure Detention numbers of our facility.
A reduced population will lower our daily operating expenses. Savings resulting from a permanently reduced
population will materialize year after year once the JDAI system takes root. These areas of savings include: Meals,
Clothing, Legal expenses, Janitorial, Medical and other health care expenses, Transportation, Trash removal,
Recreation expenditures, and countless other areas.
The reputation of Allen County government as a whole stands to benefit significantly from this proactive effort to
address the issues of troubled youth; with lockup used as a last resort and only when public safety is truly at risk.
