FOR THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AREA
96 STREET- U.S.421
HAMILTON COUNTY
REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
Dated: February 25, 2000
Purpose and Introduction.

Economic Development Area "Economic Development Area for Hamilton County, Indiana,
"County It is intended for approval by the Board of Commissioners of Hamilton County, the
Carmel/Clay Plan Commission and the Hamilton County Redevelopment Commission
"Redevelopment Commission") in conformance with IC 36 -7 -14.
Project Objectives.
The purposes of the Plan are to benefit the public health, safety, morals, and welfare of the
citizens of the County and to increase the economic well -being of the County and the State of
Indiana. The Plan is designed to promote significant opportunities for the gainful employment of
citizens of the County; to retain or expand existing significant business enterprises within the
County; to provide for local public improvements in the Economic Development Area; to remove
improvements or conditions that lower the value of the land in the Economic Development Area
below that of nearby land; to attract and retain permanent jobs; to increase the property tax base;
and to improve the diversity of the economic base of the County.
The factual report attached to this Plan contains the supporting data for the above declared
purposes of the Plan.
Description of Project Area.
The Economic Development Area is located in the southwest corner of Hamilton County and
is shown in the TIF Assessment Report Map contained in the Feasibility Study prepared by Beam,
Longest Neff, LLC, for the Hamilton County Board of Commissioners dated December 23, 1999,
(hereinafter referred to as "the Study which is included as part of this Plan.
Project Description.
The "Project," as described in the Study, consists of acquisition of right of way and
construction of substantial improvements to 96 Street from Shelborne Road to the Hamilton
County Boone County line, including improvements to the entire intersections at 96` and Shelborne
Road, and 96 and U.S. 421.
The State of Indiana is in the process of planning substantial improvements to U.S. 421 and
its intersection with I -465. The Project, combined with the State's U.S. 421 Project, will greatly
enhance traffic flow in and near the Economic Development Area.
The Project may be completed and financed in phases, with the first phase consisting of
design and right of way acquisition. The second phase would be the construction of the Project.
Acquisition of Property.
In order to accomplish the Project, it is expected that Hamilton County, Indiana, (hereinafter
referred to as "the County will acquire, by use of eminent domain, if necessary, right of way from
the parcels of real estate as shown on the Required Right of Way Parcels and Acquisition Estimate
which is contained in the Study. The right of way will be assigned by the County to the
Commission.
Procedures with Respect to the Project.
In accomplishing the Project, the Redevelopment Commission may proceed with the Project
before the final acquisition of all land in the Economic Development Area.
All contracts for material or labor in the accomplishment of the Projects shall be let under
IC 36 -1.
In the planning and rezoning of real property acquired or to be used in the accomplishment
of the Plan; the opening, closing, relocation and improvement of public ways; and the construction,
relocation, and improvement of sewers and utility services; the Redevelopment Commission shall
proceed in the same manner as private owners of the property. The Redevelopment Commission
may negotiate with the proper officers and agencies of the County to secure the proper orders,
approvals, and consents.
Any construction work required in connection with the Project may be carried out by the
appropriate municipal or county department or agency. The Redevelopment Commission may carry
out the construction work if all plans, specifications, and drawings are approved by the appropriate
department or agency and the statutory procedures for the letting of the contracts by the appropriate
department or agency are followed by the Redevelopment Commission.
The Redevelopment Commission may pay any charges or assessments made on account of
orders, approvals, consents, and construction work with respect to the Projects or may agree to pay
these assessments in installments as provided by statute in the case of private owners.
None of the real property acquired for the Project may be set aside and dedicated for public
ways, parking facilities, sewers, levees, parks, or other public purposes until the Redevelopment
Commission has obtained the consents and approval of the department or agency under whose
jurisdiction the property will be placed.
Disposal of Property_.
The Redevelopment Commission may dispose of real property acquired by sale or lease to
the public after causing to be prepared two (2) separate appraisals of the sale value or rental value
to be made by independent appraisers. However, if the real property is less than five (5) acres in size
and the fair market value of the real property or interest has been appraised by one (1) independent
appraiser at less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000), the second appraisal may be made by a
qualified employee of the Department of Redevelopment. The Redevelopment Commission will
prepare an offering sheet and will maintain maps and plats showing the size and location of all
parcels to be offered. Notice will be published of any offering in accordance with IC 5 -3 -1. The
Redevelopment Commission will follow the procedures of IC 36- 7 -14 -22 in making a sale or lease
of real property acquired.
Financing of the Projects.
It is the intention of the Redevelopment Commission to issue bonds payable from
incremental ad valorem property taxes allocated under IC 36- 7 -14 -39 in order to raise money for
property acquisition and completion of the Project to benefit the Economic Development Area. The
amount of these bonds may not exceed the total, as estimated by the Redevelopment Commission
of all expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the Projects, including:
(1) The total cost of all land, right -of -way, and other property to be acquired and
developed;
(2) All reasonable and necessary architectural, engineering, legal, financing, accounting,
advertising, bond discount and supervisory expenses related to the acquisition and development of
the Project or the issuance of bonds;and
(3)
Interest (not to exceed 5 years from the date of issuance) and a debt service reserve
for the bonds to the extent the Redevelopment Commission determines that a reserve is reasonably
required.
(4) Expenses that the Redevelopment Commission is required or permitted to pay under
IC 8- 23 -17.
In the issuance of bonds the Redevelopment Commission will comply with IC 36 -7 -14 -25.1.
As an alternative to the issuance of bonds or in conjunction with it, the Redevelopment
Commission may enter into a lease of any property that could be financed with the proceeds of bonds
under IC 36 -7 -14. The lease is subject to the provisions of IC 36 -7 -14 -25.2 and IC 36 -7 -14 -25.3.
Am endment of the Plan.
By following the procedures specified in IC 36 -7 -14 -17.5, the Redevelopment Commission
may amend the Plan for the Economic Development Area, but any such amendment must be
approved by the Board of Commissioners of Hamilton County.
Termination Date for Tax Increment Financing District
The Tax Increment Financing District to be used to provide financing for this plan will expire
on February 25, 2030.
FACTUAL REPORT IN SUPPORT
OF FINDINGS CONTAINED IN
RESOLUTION NO. 2000-1
OF THE HAMILTON COUNTY
REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
1. The Plan for the Economic Development Area will promote significant opportunities
for the gainful employment of citizens of Hamilton County by increasing the traffic flow into and
out of the Economic Development Area which will accelerate and expand the development within
the Area leading to more employment and economic activity within the Area.
2. The Plan will retain or expand existing significant business enterprises in the County
and the Economic Development Area by providing better access for customers and employees to the
commercial and industrial properties within the Economic Development Area.
3. The planning, replanning, development, and redevelopment of the Economic
Development Area will benefit the public health, safety, morals and welfare; increase the economic
well -being of the County and the State of Indiana; and serve to protect and increase property values
in the County and the State of Indiana, by providing expanded and safer streets near the Area.
4. The Plan for the Economic Development Area cannot be achieved by regulatory
processes or by the ordinary operation of private enterprise without resort to IC 36 -7 -14 (the
redevelopment statute) because of the lack of local public streets and the high cost of right of way
to expand 96 Street to serve the Economic Development Area.
5. The accomplishment of the Plan for the Economic Development Area will be of
public utility and benefit as measured by:
(A) The attraction of numerous permanent jobs to the businesses to be located on
the undeveloped land within the Area.
(B) An estimated increase in the real property tax base of $19,000,000 and an
increase in the personal property tax base of at least $8,000,000.
6. The Commission estimates that it will need to issue bonds or enter into a lease
financing of approximately $14,000,000 to implement the Plan.

and location of all parcels to be offered. Notice will be published of any offering in accordance

1. The Plan for the Economic Development Area will promote significant
opportunities for the gainful employment of citizens of Hamilton County "County") as follows:
The development of the Project east of U.S. 31 is anticipated to generate at least 100 full
time and 100 part time jobs. The development of the land west of U.S. 31 has not yet been
defined, but would generate additional employment within the City of Carmel and Hamilton
County.
2. The Plan will expand retail sales opportunities within Hamilton County, thereby
allowing more of the disposable income of Hamilton County residents to be spent within the
County.
3. The planning, replanning, development, and redevelopment of the Economic
Development Area will benefit the public health, safety, morals and welfare; increase the
economic well -being of the County and the State of Indiana; and serve to protect and increase
property values in the County and the State of Indiana by improving the traffic flow through one
of the most congested intersections in Hamilton County.
4. The Plan for the Economic Development Area cannot be achieved by regulatory
processes or by the ordinary operation of private enterprise without resort to IC 36 -7 -14 (the
redevelopment statute) because of the lack of local public improvements, namely, local streets,
ramps, and bridges within and near the Economic Development Area.
5. The accomplishment of the Plan for the Economic Development Area will be of
public utility and benefit as measured by:
(1) The attraction of an estimated 200 full and part time permanent jobs;
(2) An estimated increase in the property tax base of approximately Five
Million Dollars ($5,000,000) of assessed valuation; and
(3)
