Need for Incentives

GAPOther Competitive Markets & SitesNeighboring towns or statesGlobal Economy for ideal jobsBusiness Friendly EnvironmentPerception is importantEconomic development tools in place and ready to make quick decisions.Slide6

Typical Factors Businesses Consider When Locating to a Community

Adequate

Labor Pool

Utility Infrastructure Analysis (availability, capacity, cost, reliability)

Transportation Infrastructure Analysis

Taxes - Incentives

Proximity to Vendors,

Suppliers, Customers Management

Quality of LifeSlide7

Typical 4 Phase Site Selection ProcessSlide8

Regional Analysis

Peer Group (Competitor) AnalysisWho is your competition?Assess your attributesInfrastructureUtilitiesLaborAssess and project the economic benefitsJobs, taxes etcSlide9

Regional Collaboration Required

The Need for Regional CollaborationIncreased Competition – Regional, National & InternationalShrinking Budgets & Resource ScarcityMany projects and infrastructure requirements exceed the capabilities of individual local governments acting on their own. Reduces intra-region competition between municipalities, therefore making the region's narrative more compellingSlide10

Illinois Constitution – Article VII Sect 10(a)

Authorizes municipal corporations and other governmental entities to join together in intergovernmental agreements for the purpose of achieving statutory objectives and goals individually and jointly, to obtain or share services and to exercise, combine, or transfer any power or function, in any manner not prohibited by law or by ordinance and to use their credit, revenues, and other resources to pay costs and to service debt related to intergovernmental activities.Slide11

Intergovernmental Cooperation Act 5

ILCS 220/1 et seq.Provides that any power or powers, privileges, functions, or authority exercised or which may be exercised by a public agency of this State may be exercised, combined, transferred, and enjoyed jointly with any other public agency of this StateSlide12

Successful Approaches to Coalition Building

A collaborative approach results in:Greater project efficienciesMore cost effective project deliveryMitigated risk through collective sharing in the costs and benefits. Regional commitment – political unity

Leaders who understand key regional public and private economic drivers can better position themselves in attracting and retaining investments from businesses. Slide13

Who is part of the Regional Coalition?

Collaborative Regional Coalitions (CRCs)The participants in multi-organizational and inter- governmental networks vary by project. Each actor brings applicable interests, assets, knowledge, and skills to the table.The key to success is to ensure the effective alignment of risks & rewards across all participant communities Without appropriate alignment it is difficult to sustain effective CRC'sSlide14

Successful Approaches to Coalition Building

Create a Collaborative CoalitionFoster a culture of stewardship, innovation & actionFocus on understanding each coalition member’s risk and reward profile and structure the project to align everyone’s interestsEfficient Project Delivery Use of Lean Project Management type of best practices including IPD, ARCI charts, communications plan and ongoing project management Analyze

approaches to financing the projectUnderstand the Sources & UsesIdentify different ways to finance the project - Capital Stack planning & structuring processOwner's Agent (OA) Services Utilize an independent OA to represent the communities' interests and ensures on time & on budget project deliverySlide15

Successful Approaches… Process Matters

Efficient and Effective Project Delivery requires:Utilization of Integrated Project Delivery Process (IPD)& ARCI chart for smooth project deliveryDeploy Lean Project ManagementEliminates Touch PointsReduces time lagImproves cross-entity coordinationStandardizes work to reduce varianceSlide16

Financing the Project

Capital Stack PlanningInvolves identifying and securing available funding sources for the project Each and every project is different and requires the financing structure to align with the projects goals & needs. Slide17

Financing the Project – Tools (some stackable)

Tax Increment Finance Districts (TIF)Special Service Area (SSA)Special Assessments (SA)Business Development Districts (BDD)Sales Tax Rebate Agreements (ROT)Real Estate Tax Abatements Enterprise Zones (EZ)GrantsOthers (Fee Waivers etc)Slide18

Financing the Project (Cont'd)

Necessary to use financial tools to analyze funding options, including: Deterministic Modeling These models can be used as part of the incentive packaging processDeterministic Modeling uses key variables as well as by running scenarios to visualize the project's outcomes for the regionThese deterministic models can be used to track the effect of deal term changes on either a long or near term operational basisDeterministic Modeling allows the regional coalitions leadership to adjust the capital stack structure and other incentives to optimize the deal structure for the community Slide19

Lean Project Management

LPM embraces best practices in the areas of:ProcessAccountabilityCommunications & Data SharingSlide20

Lean Project Management (Cont'd)

ProcessThe process of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) is endorsed by: American Institute of Architecture (AIA) & the American General Contractors Association (AGCA). The IPD is a project management theory adaptable to any project & views each project from concept to completion. Facilitating on-time & on-budget project deliverySlide21

Lean Project Management (Cont'd)

Process (cont'd)Integrated Project Delivery Process (IPD)Method that involves all levels of the client entity, installing project management professionals to help scope, budget, phase and monitor the project. Helps local governments understand a projects likely impactThe IPD process is endorsed by the American Institute of Architecture (AIA) and the American General Contractors Association (AGCA)Slide22

Lean Project Management (Cont'd)

AccountabilityThe ARCI chart sets the standard for effective project communicationPart of an IPD is the ARCI chart which is a management tool that recognizes all the activities and relevant decision makers All personal and their roles are defined Slide23

Lean Project Management (Cont'd)

Communication & Data SharingProject Management includes a Communication Plan that establishes an agreed upon flow of information to avoid: Communication interferenceEstablish a hierarchy of command Reduce back channel noise that can disrupt Economic Development projects. Slide24

Owners Agent

An Owners Agent (OA) acts in the interest of the Owner on all phases of a construction projectThe OA acts as a liaison between the owner, architect, engineers, etc.The experience brought to bear by the OA includes knowledge of architectural and engineering concerns in relation to the goals of the Owner’s operational concerns.Slide25

Owners Agent (Cont'd)

The Owners Agent (OA) answer Owners questions, scrutinize overall project performance, evaluate change order requests, and provide insight and analysis that enable the owner to make informed decisionsAdditionally, the use of an OA can lessen burdens on staff and the owner during the construction projectThe OA is most effective if brought into the project during the conceptualization and research phases.

Baxter - Now

Fed Ex largest ground operation facility at 200,000 sq.ft.  Conway Trucking has been able to expand due to water service  Food manufacturer recently considered this siteGreat deal of interest in this site now that it has been prepared with improved roads and a water system.  There is pad ready space for 1.5 M sq. ft. on one side of the road and 1M sq. ft. on the other.

Summary

By embracing the approaches covered in this presentation, local communities and their region are:Better positioned to build successful coalitions (inter-governmental and public-private), Able to identify a clear set of benefits, develop a plan that has the greatest likelihood of success, and align a project’s economicsinstitute a project oversight and management process to monitor the delivery of the stated goals and deliverables on-time and on-budget. become more competitive and compelling and able to deliver the facilities and services that enrich its local communities.
