| 9:32:20 AM | Shawn Ferguson, Fulton County Economic Development Director - Department Update |
Mr. Ferguson didn't have time to get a complete report to the Commissioners so highlighted just a few things of interest. He noted that he had attended the meeting in Metamora last night regarding the Northwest State Community College satellite to be located there. The NWOhio5 program will be continued on October 7 at 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. in the Voinovich Auditorium at NW State. Mr. Hall will be a presenter once again. CRA in Dover Township - Lisa has met again with the trustees and they are close to a recommendation to the Commissioners. Airport issues - Dave Ball situation and access agreement...Jan Burkhard is in conversations with the consultant. He is presently waiting for some information from Mr. Ball. This will be critical to future airport growth. Commissioner Genter added that we need to stay in touch with Dave. Shawn also talked about tax abatements - there is no longer a need to do enterprise zone agreements. As of January 1, 2005 machinery & equipment is no longer taxable. There are 4 communities that have CRA's that are pre-1994 and those will need to be updated - an easy task with a one page requiring signatures. He indicated that next year will be very interesting to say the least. Shawn explained how it will effect the schools as well as manufacturing. Delta Steel - they have submitted a portion of their M-3 zoning plan. Mr. Ferguson said that his department is spending a lot of time dealing with retention - we want to make sure we don't lose what we already have. NORED - do they want to pay the normal $5000 dues membership? Mr. Ferguson has not paid it yet. They have gone private and have a new director. A lot of counties are only doing the $500 membership. His recommendation is to only do the $500 membership in order to stay a part. Commissioner Graf wonders what they are going to do for us. After discussion Commissioner Graf said that he would not be opposed to doing a $500 membership but would like to hear what they are going to do for us before giving them $5000. He feels they are going to chase the money and whoever gives the money will get the attention. His recommendation would be to spend the money for some lobbying. Mr. Ferguson said he agrees and would suggest that they do the $500 so that at least we can be at the table. Mr. Hall agrees that monies saved would be well spent in the retention calls that Mr. Ferguson touched on earlier. Keeping the money local is key. Commissioner Graf spoke of an idea presented to him regarding doing a video that promotes everything that is being done at Workforce Development and Economic Development. This can be used at trade shows for just an example but would be an excellent promotional tool. Mr. Hall envisions this to include technology. He has already made a contact regarding such a production and it is very affordable. R & R Plastics - Mr. Ferguson said they do have a deal and we will get full recovery of our RLF dollars. Closing date is on the 30th. He will then provide them with a release of the mortgage. Production there with the new owner is probably six months down the road. There will be some new jobs created. | |
