Van Milligen MCVM/jh Attachment cc: Barry Lindahl, City Attorney Cindy Steinhauser, Assistant City Manager David Heiar, Economic Development Director THE CITY OF DUbUgU@ ~~ ~ ~.~ .. All•~ii~ericaCiiy Mt~sterpiece on tl~e Mississippi 2007 DATE: April 28, 2009 TO: Michael Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: David Heiar, Economic Development Director( SUBJECT: Application to the Economic Development Administration for Financial Assistance with a Downtown Parking Facility INTRODUCTION This memorandum presents for City Council review and approval a resolution authorizing the submission of a financial assistance application to the United States Economic Development Administration (EDA) for construction of a downtown parking ramp to assist IBM Corporation, an information technology company looking to expand their operations within Dubuque, Iowa. BACKGROUND IBM intends to create a global services location in Dubuque. The Company plans to create 1,300 positions in the Roshek Building located at 700 Locust Street. IBM is a globally integrated enterprise that targets the intersection of technology and effective business. The company seeks to be a partner in its clients' success by enabling their own capacity for distinctive innovation. To help clients achieve growth, effectiveness, efficiency and the realization of greater value through innovation, IBM draws upon the world's leading systems, software and services capabilities. The company's business model is built to support two principal goals: helping clients succeed in delivering business value by becoming more innovative, efficient and competitive through the use of business insight and information technology (IT) solutions; and, providing long-term value to shareholders. IBM will initially hire 350 employees to begin July 1, 2009, then create an additional 350 positions by September 1, 2009. The Company will add another 600 new positions by the end of 2010, bringing the total to 1300. The building renovation (in partnership with Dubuque Initiatives), is estimated at $39,000,000. To assist this project, the City Council approved an Incentive Agreement with IBM on February 13, 2009. This agreement requires the City to provide a free shuttle service to the Port of Dubuque to accommodate the parking needs of IBM and other downtown employees. In addition, the agreement requires the City and IBM to work together to explore additional downtown parking opportunities and to cooperate with each other in applying for grants to fund such parking. The long term success of IBM and other downtown employers, is dependent on adequate and convenient parking for their employees. Since last fall, City Staff has been in discussions with EDA staff in Des Moines and in the Denver Regional Office to investigate how this federal agency could assist with the IBM project. With the help of ECIA, a grant application has been prepared to seek funding for a downtown parking ramp (see attached). The application proposes that the City will provide 62% of the funding or $11,169,003. This funding will come from a bond sale financed by parking revenues and Tax Increment from the downtown Urban Renewal District and would finance adding about approximately 570 parking spaces. The remaining 38% of the cost ($6,900,757) would be funded by an EDA grant and would be the second phase of the project adding about 340 more spaces. RECOMMENDATION I recommend that the City Council authorize the submission of an application to the EDA requesting a $6,900,757 grant to fund a downtown parking ramp. This project is consistent with the City's goals to facilitate job growth in the community, and increase the number of good paying jobs and further diversify our economic base. ACTION STEP The action step for the City Council is to approve the attached application. attachments F:\USERS\DHeiar\IBM\EDA parking Ramp application\20090428 EDA application Memo.doc THE CITY OF DUBUQUE Showing the Spirit COPY Economic Development Department City Hall - Second Floor 50 West 13th Street Dubuque, Iowa 52001-4864 (563) 589-4393 office (563) 589-1733 fax (563) 690-6678 TDD April 24, 2009 Mr. Bob Cecil Economic Development Representative Economic Development Administration 210 Walnut Street Des Moines, IA 50309 Dear Bob: Enclosed please find an original and three copies of our EDA application for funding to assist with the construction of a parking ramp in the downtown area. As we discussed over the past several months, the parking facility is one of the central elements in the success of IBM's creation of 1300 IT jobs in the historic Roshek building located in downtown Dubuque. Due to funding limitations the proposed application is for a phased approach to the construction of the parking ramp. The City would appreciate your expedient review and input prior to forwarding onto the Denver Regional Office. Bob, thanks for your continued support and guidance. Sincerely, David J.

Will you be able to provide the above information? (~ Yes ^ No (explain) EDA Grant Application City of Dubuque Downtown Parking Facility related to IBM Project Section A Background: In January of 2009, IBM, a world leader in the information technology industry, announced there intent to create 1,300 IT positions in the former Roshek Building in downtown Dubuque. IBM has approximately 380,000 employees worldwide and is a globally integrated enterprise that targets the intersection of technology and effective business. Global Technology Services (GTS) is a segment of IBM that primarily reflects IT infrastructure services and business process services, delivering value through the company's global scale, standardization and automation. This is the business segment that will establish a new site in Dubuque. Investment (Project) Region A. 1. The project is located in downtown Dubuque and will have a significant impact on the distressed census tract in which IBM is locating. The Roshek Building is located in Census Tract 1 within the City of Dubuque, Iowa in Dubuque County with the EDA benefits being received within Census Tract 1. Census Tract 1 encompasses the majority of downtown Dubuque. Census Tract 1 has 24.9% of its population at or below the federal poverty line and the average income is 58.9% of the area average. Per capita income in Census Tract 1 is $14,545 (67% of the national average) and vacancy rate for housing is 20.9%. The impact of IBM is more than just where the project is located. The impact will be felt throughout the entire ECIA five county region, our EDA district including Jones County, as well as across the Mississippi River into Wisconsin and Illinois. IBM is recruiting employees from a 100 mile radius of Dubuque. The impact will affect be felt across the entire labor shed area for Dubuque. Dubuque, Iowa Laborshed Data dated September, 2008. Source Iowa Workforce Development 10 M/e In(erva/ Behvee Rinbs ! Regionally, as of January, 2009, the average unemployment was 6.5% with the highest rate in Jackson County at 8.3%, which is the contiguous county to Dubuque. For the purpose of this grant the regional numbers are the counties in this EDA district of Cedar, Clinton, Dubuque, Delaware and Jackson Counties. City of Dubuque has the lowest rate in the region with 5.9% but that is still above the State of Iowa average of 4.8%. Jackson County has the lowest household medium income in the region of $41,948, which is less than 82% of the national average. Residents of Jackson County will greatly benefit from the IBM project with the average commuting time of just 20 minutes to downtown Dubuque. There has been stagnate population growth in the region. The median age of the workforce has increased in recent years from 32.8 to 40.2. It is anticipated that with the IBM project, the medium age will decrease due to the high tech nature of the jobs and the recruiting efforts of IBM with the local four year and community colleges. This effort is being assisted by new recruiting efforts developed in the region such as DubuqueWorks, Accessmyjobs.com, and Accessmyfuture.com. Investment (Project) Description A.2 The scope of work for the project will consist of constructing a state of the art multi-level parking facility with commercial and retail on the main level and parking on the upper levels in the Town Clock Plaza on Main Street in downtown Dubuque. This project is the direct result of the IBM project. The City of Dubuque, the State of Iowa, and Dubuque Initiatives have committed to assisting with the renovation of the Roshek Building which was originally built in 1928 as a portion of the IBM project. The building has 255,000 square feet, 9 floors, and is in need of significant renovation estimated at $38 million to accommodate this major development. IBM has signed a 10 year lease with two five year in~~~~~~ental renewal options. At the present time, parking facilities in the downtown area of Dubuque are at capacity and as part of the IBM Incentive Agreement (Refer to Appendix I, sections 2.6 and 2.7 of the agreement), the City has agreed to provide parking solutions for IBM. The City also has concerns for it existing downtown businesses and patrons and wants to ensure that parking is available for other employers and visitors to the downtown. The City has a parking facility in the Port of Dubuque area with 1100 parking spaces but many of those spaces are for the casino parking. As a temporary solution for the parking issues for the new IBM employees, the City has agreed to provide free shuttle service from the Port of Dubuque parking ramp located by the new casino to the Roshek Building. Phase I of the new parking facility will be constructed in two parts. The facility has been designed for an optional Phase II that can be constructed at a later date to accommodate adding two floors of additional parking on both the north and south ends of the ramp. Phase I, Part A, which is the southern portion of the project at 5~' and Main Streets, is currently a city owned parking lot. The first floor of the parking facility will house 18,000 square feet of retail and commercial space and will blend esthetically into the downtown facades. Phase I, Part B, includes moving the United Way offices from their existing location on Main Street into the Phase I, Part A, retail/commercial space and then deconstructing the existing building on the southern portion of the site. This site is adjacent to the parking lot site owned by the City. The existing building on the site which is the current home of the United Way was constructed in the late 1970's or early 1980's and does not currently blend in with the esthetics and charm of downtown Dubuque. There is not historic value to this building. (Refer to Appendix II for a parcel map of the area). Phase I, Part A and B will have four floors of parking housing 530 total parking places. The total cost of Phase I, Part A and B cost is $18,069,760. The City is seeking an investment from EDA of 38% of the total Phase I, Part A and B cost or $6,900,757. Phase II has been designed and would add more parking but will be done as additional funding becomes available. Renderings, site plan and cost estimates can be found in Appendix III. Total state, local and private incentives for the overall IBM project are $52,635,547. Total annual economic impact on the Dubuque area as the direct result of this project is estimated at $152,233,500. Please reference A.4.1 for specifics on the economic impact for this project. Economic Development Needs A.3.a. The CEDS for the region was developed by the designated Economic Development District for the region, East Central Intergovernmental Association and addresses a five county region in Northeast Iowa including Dubuque, Delaware, Jackson, Cedar and Clinton Counties. A.3.b. The region was impacted in this past year by severe flooding. Recovering from these floods has remained a major challenge. Over a billion dollars in damage was estimated state- wide. People, businesses, crops, roads, rail roads, and infrastructure were all impacted and damaged by the floods of 2008. Recovery will take years. As illustrated in the map on the following page, Dubuque, Delaware, Jones, Cedar, Clinton, and Jackson Counties were declared disaster counties due to the flood. Unemployment rates have increased throughout the region in this past year. From January, 2008 to January, 2009 rates have increased from an average of 5.0% in the region to an average of 6.5%. The investment from the IBM project directly impacts the CEDS goals. The first goal in the CEDS document is to "Increase/Expand the Economic Segments in the Region". Within that goal one of the strategies is to "encourage the location and expansion of technology related industries" to the region. A second strategy within the goal is to "improve infrastructure and maximize existing resources". The IBM project certainly addresses this CEDS goal and strategies through adding 1300 IT jobs; rehabilitating a building constructed in 1928 in the heart of the Town Clock Plaza in downtown Dubuque; and maximizing the use of existing space in downtown Dubuque by constructing astate-of--the art parking facility with retail and commercial space on the first floor. A.3.c. Economic conditions for this region have remained relatively strong considering the state of the national economy in this past twelve months. The down turn in the economy was not as widespread in 2008 as the rest of the country. According to the CEDS Annual report dated December, 2008, the region lost approximately 593 jobs in 2008 due to closures. The region gained 1,093 jobs for a net total gain of 455 jobs. Manufacturing was the hardest hit with 77% of the job loss in manufacturing. However, manufacturing had the largest gain in new jobs with 705 jobs gain which helped offset the jobs lost. Since the December 2008 CEDS report was prepared, the region has been more adversely impacted by the national economic crisis. For example, building permits in Dubuque County alone have plummeted 50% from 366 in 2007 to 180 in 2008 due to the recession according to the Dubuque Homebuilders Association. In early 2009, seven of Dubuque's employers laid off employees; Hodge Company laid off 10 and 140 nationwide; Flexsteel laid off 118; Edward Cast Stone laid off 23; ThermoFischer Scientific laid off 12; Bodine Electric cut 30 jobs; Georgia Pacific cut 12 jobs; and finally, Rite Hite cut 57 employees. Rockwell Collins laid off 30 employees in Bellevue and 29 in Manchester. Egging Company in Clinton laid off 30 employees. Exide laid off 20; Henderson cut 15; Cedar Lodge closed and displaced 30; XL Specialized Trailers laid 7 in March, all of which are in Manchester. Finally, Farm Tech in Dyersville just recently laid off 10 employees. The largest announcement of job lay offs came in very early March from John Deere, one of the largest employers in the region. Deere has cut 220 jobs and continues to gradually lay off employees with the total at 359 since January. A recent study completed by Blane Canada Research Group for the Greater Dubuque Development Corporation just taking into companies within Dubuque County, found from local companies that "total sales appear to be stalling". While 60% of the companies interviewed were still seeing sales increases at the time of the report, nearly 40% had stable or declining sales. Finally, regionally we have seen a death in the ethanol industry. VeraSun in Dyersville shut down at the end of 2008 following the company's fourth quarter loss of nearly $500 million. The facility employed 50 workers. A.4. Investment (Project) Impact and Fit with EDA Funding Priorities The IBM Project clearly satisfies several of the EDA investment guidelines. 1. Market-based and results driven: The IBM project is both market based and results driven. This project is bringing in 1300 high skilled IT workers with an average wage of $45,000 per year with added fringe benefits equal to approximately 20% of their salaries. This equates to $58,500,000 annually in IBM salaries; $11,700,000 in annual fringe benefits; $7,370,000 in federal income taxes paid by IBM employees; $2,340,000 in State income taxes paid by IBM employees; $18,580,000 estimated in retail purchases made locally by IBM-worker households; $930,000 in State sales taxes estimated to be paid by IBM-worker households; with total overall economic impacts estimated conservatively at $152,233,500 annually. (Refer to Appendix IV for supporting report prepared by Community Land Use Economic Group, LLC). 2. Strong Organizational Leadership: The City of Dubuque staff is more than qualified and capable to administer, implement, manage and lead this project. The project will be under the supervision of the Economic Development Director for the City of Dubuque with assistance from the Assistant Economic Development Director and ECIA staff. The Economic Devel.,Yu~ent Director has over 30 years of experience in city government and economic development. The Assistant Director of Economic Development was responsible for the reporting requirements for the recent EDA technical assistance grant for the Millwork District. ECIA staffhave over 30 years of experience as well. Both City staff and ECIA have been successful in administering previous EDA projects, 3. Advance productivity, innovation and entrepreneurship: The IBM project will signiGantly increase regional wealth, innovation and productivity. The project will enhance one of the significant industry clusters in the region, the business services cluster which included IT related services. (Refer to Appendix V for an excerpt from the 2006 regional Cluster Analysis). An important part of landing the IBM project in Dubuque was the collaboration with the local colleges, universities and two-year schools. Colleges that have participated and partnered in this team effort are Loras College, Clarke College, University of Dubuque, University of Wisconsin Platteville, Southwest Tech, Northeast Iowa Community College, and finally Kirkwood Community College. Everyone realizes that producing quality employees to enter the IT field is critical to the success of the IBM project. The participating schools are playing a major role in the education of our future IMB employees as well as are providing a source of employees for the existing labor pool that IBM plans to hire from. The IBM project will also leverage new innovation and entrepreneurialism in the region. The Millwork District (formerly the Warehouse District) in Dubuque has over 1 million square feet of space and is estimated that over 500 jobs will be created by companies locating in this area. The IBM project will provide a rapid jumpstart to this district. The Millwork District will draw new high tech entrepreneurs that like the urban atmosphere. The Millwork District will also be a location for trendy market rate apartments and condominiums. Developers are currently seeking funding opportunities to develop portions of the Millwork District which is expected to bring in over $146 million in private investment. Combined with public investment it is estimated final investment will be over $200 million dollars. IBM leaders were very enthused about the Millwork District plan and have indicated that it would be a great location for many of their employees to live. 4. Look beyond the immediate econo is horizon, anticipate economic changes, and diversify the local and regional economy: As mentioned previously, this project fits into the priorities and strategies of the CEDS for the region. It is a project that compliments our existing industry clusters for the region. The project has awide-scale impact on the region and will forever change the landscape and future of the region. IBM is starting with 1300 employees with an approximate annual payroll of $60,000,000 but is already discussing future projects and development in Dubuque. IBM is a world class leader and has transformed itself into a globally integrated enterprise which has improved overall productivity and is driving investment and participation in the world's fastest growing markets. The magnitude of this project is realized by the overall investment of all those who have participated to date such as the commitment of $14 million dollars from the State of Iowa; $24.5 million from the Dubuque Initiatives incentives; $5.6 million from City of Dubuque incentives; and $8.5 million from the NICC job training programs. This project has become the new economic driver for the entire region. 5. Remonstrate a high degree of local commitment: The entire IBM project is the result of strong leadership, creative minds, and a collaborative effort with many state and local partners. There is a high level of financial commitment to this project from all partners as well as from IBM. As mentioned above the State of Iowa provided $14 million in incentives. Dubuque initiatives provided $24.5 million. These incentives were necessary to seal the deal with IBM to locate in Dubuque. Now that IBM is locating in Dubuque, there is a high level of commitment to make the project a success so future development occurs. Discussions have been already been held with IBM on further expansion projects in Dubuque. A key to this success is the proposed state of the art parking facility. The City of Dubuque is committed to funding 62% of the Phase I Parts A and B total project costs for the facility, $11,169,003. EDA's partnership and investment of the remaining 38% for Phase I, Part A and B, $6,900,757 is critical to the future of the entire overall IBM project. Phase II of the project has been planned for and will be constructed as the funding becomes available and as the demand for the parking increases. IBM is extremely committed to this protect. They anticipate 350 employees in Eiubuque occupying the Koshek Building by June 2009 and 350 employees 60 days later. The remaining 600 employees by early 2010. The IBIi~I project clearly meets EI)A's funding priorities. 1. Investments in support of long term, coordinated and collaborative regional economic development approaches: As mentioned earlier, this project clearly fits into the priorities of the regional CEDS and has exceeded our expectations in the region. This project will become the economic driver for our region and the impact will be felt for more than a 100 mile radius. The impact to the region can be found in Appendix III from a study conducted by The Community Land use Economics Group, LLC. As noted earlier, annual salaries alone from IBM will near $60,000,000. Additional partners in the project have included Greater Dubuque Development Corporation, Northeast Iowa Community College, State of Iowa, Alliant Energy and Black Hills Energy, all have provided various incentives totally $52,500,000 collectively. Annual State income taxes estimated to be paid are $2.3 million. The magnitude of this project will be felt not just regionally but state-wide. Partnerships have been critical to this project and are even more critical as we move forward to ensure the project is a success. There would be nothing worse to have IBM move to Dubuque and for the project to fail, therefore, partnerships must remain strong. An important partner moving forward in this project is with the Economic Development Administration to assist with the infrastructure needs for the state of the art parking facility. As part of the incentive agreement for IBM, the City is to provide parking. Parking is paid for by the IBM employees. Currently the parking situation in downtown Dubuque is limited therefore, a new facility is required. The City is committed to funding 62% of the parking facility but the remaining 38% of the project is needed from the EDA to move the project forward and make it happen. 2. Investments that support innovation and competitiveness: As mentioned earlier, IBM has over 380,000 employees worldwide and is a globally integrated enterprise that targets the intersection of technology and effective business. As seen in Appendix V, Business Services, is a significant cluster in the region. This cluster includes computer and information technology related services for our region. With the addition of IBM, this cluster is significantly enhanced and will create a ripple effect for other information related businesses in the region and a wave of development especially in the downtown area of Dubuque. This project will also create a demand in the need for IT related educational services in the region and will encourage additional competitiveness with our local and regional higher educational institutions to produce graduates that can fill the demand for IBM's current and future employee needs. Finally, through this project a landmark building that lies in the heart of the downtown Dubuque business community, the Roshelc Building will be transformed through its $38 million renovation. This building is critical to the heart of the infrastructure in the downtown. 3. Investments that encourage entrepreneurship: The project is located in downtown Dubuque and will have a significant impact on the distressed census tract in which IBM is locating. The Roshek Building is located in Census Tract 1 within the City of Dubuque, Iowa in Dubuque County with the EDA benefits being received within Census Tract 1. Census Tract 1' encompasses the majority of downtown Dubuque. Census Tract 1 has 24.9% of its population at or below the federal poverty line and the average income is 58.9% of the area average. Per capita income in Census Tract 1 is $14,545 (67% of the national average) and vacancy rate for housing is 20.9%. The average wage annual salary for the is project is $45,000, nearly three. times the current average wage fog tine census tract tree project is located in. Additionally, this project will jump start the development of another priority project in Dubuque, the Millwork District. The recently completed "Historic Millwork District Master Plan", an EDA funded project, identifies the redevelopment of the unusual space into retail, commercial, and housing units. It is anticipated the Millwork district will draw entrepreneurs to the region and will provide market rate housing, condominiums and commercial space for young, innovative and growing businesses. Total estimated investment for both public and private sector is estimated over $200 million. 4. Support strategies that link regional economies with the global marketplace: IBM is a world leader in the information technology industry. The company has exited commodity businesses like personal computers and hard disk drives and strengthened its position through strategic investments and acquisitions in emerging high value segments like service oriented architecture and information demand. They have over 380,000 employees worldwide. This project exemplifies how Dubuque has been able to develop and implement a project that reflects the competitive environment of the 21St century marketplace and sets a standard for future development within the region. A.5 Applicant's Capability The City of Dubuque Economic Development Department's staff is more than capable of administering, implementing and attracting private sector investments in the area. The Port of Dubuque, which lies approximately 4 blocks from the Roshek Building, has seen nearly $300 million in private investment that is either completed for committed. The Millwork District which is just three blocks away from the IBM project is another example of private investment in the community. Developers, property owners and public agencies have shown support for this district and have committed to invest $200 million in the next five years to revitalize this area. A.6. Proposed Time Schedule for the Project The project is scheduled to begin immediately upon commitment from the EDA. It is important this project begins during the 2009 spring/summer construction season. Phase I of the project can be constructed in two parts A and B. Phase I, Part A, which is the southern portion of the project at 5''' and Main Streets, is currently a parking lot owned by the City of Dubuque. The first floor of the parking facility will house retail and commercial space and will blend esthetically into the downtown facades. Phase I, Part A and B will have a net total gain of 530 parking spaces. Phase I, Part B will include moving the United Way offices from their existing location on Main Street into the Phase Iretail/commercial space; the City purchasing the land and building; then deconstructing the existing building currently on the site for Phase I, Part B of the parking facility. The cost of the acquisition of the United Way building and land as well as their moving them is included in the total overall cost estimate of the project. A.7. Civil Rights a. Yes b. N/A A.B. Proposed Project Budget See EDA Forrn SF-4240 A.9. ~lon®EI)A Funding for the Project a. Total Project cost for the parking facility, Phase I, Parts A and B is $18,069,760. The City of Dubuque is committed to funding 62% of the Phase I total project cost for the facility, $11,169,003. EDA's partnership and investment of the remaining 38% for Phase I, $6,900,757 is critical to the future of the entire overall IBM project. Phase II of the project, which is adding an additional two levels of parking on the entire facility will be completed as funding becomes available. The City will fund their portion of the project of $11,169,003 through general obligation bonds and repaying those bonds through the TIF district revenues and parking facility revenues. The City's 62% portion for this project is available immediately. There are no conditions or restrictions on the use of those funds. There are no in-kind contributions to the project. b. Yes, all non-EDA funds are available and committed to this project. c. Actions needed to secure funds -The City will follow its formal bonding procedure requirements to secure their portion of the funding. The City will use TIF district revenue and parking facility revenues to repay the general obligation bond debt. (Refer to Appendix VI for the City match verification letter) d. No, the City does not intend to seek other federal financial assistance for this project. e. EDA is the federal funding source that will provide 38% of the total Phase I project costs for infrastructure related economic development related projects. The upfront portion of this project has pulled together many sources of State, local, and private investments as previously identified in Section A.4.4., however, the federal investment form the EDA is a critical piece to successfully completing the project and meeting the incentive agreement with IBM.

The project is located in downtown Dubuque and will have a significant impact on the distressed census tract in which IBM is locating. The Roshek Building is located in Census Tract 1 within the City of Dubuque, Iowa in Dubuque County with the EDA benefits being received within Census Tract 1. Census Tract 1 encompasses the majority of downtown Dubuque. Census Tract 1 has 24.9% of its population at or below the federal poverty line and the average income is 58.9% of the area average. Per capita income in Census Tract 1 is $14,545 (67% of the national average) and vacancy rate for housing is 20.9%. The impact of IBM is more than just where the project is located. The impact will be felt throughout the entire ECIA five county region, our EDA district including Jones County, as well as across the Mississippi River into Wisconsin and Illinois. IBM is recruiting employees from a 100 mile radius of Dubuque. The impact will affect be felt across the entire labor shed area for Dubuque. Regionally, as of January, 2009, the average unemployment was 6.5% with the highest rate in Jackson County at 8.3%, which is the contiguous county to Dubuque. For the purpose of this grant the regional numbers are the counties in this EDA district of Cedar, Clinton, Dubuque, Delaware and Jackson Counties. City of Dubuque has the lowest rate in the region with 5.9% but that is still above the State of Iowa average of 4.8%. Jackson County has the lowest household medium income in the region of $41,948, which is less than 82% of the national average. Residents of Jackson County will greatly benefit from the IBM project with the average commuting time of just 20 minutes to downtown Dubuque. There has been stagnate population growth in the region. The median age of the workforce has increased in recent years from 32.8 to 40.2. 2. Data for this project was used from the entire EDA District for East Central Intergovernmental Association including Jones County. This region is part of the Prosperity Eastern Iowa collaborative regional marking group where studies have been completed by Iowa Workforce Development for a regional labor shed demographic, regional profile and regional employment and unemployment data. Due to the magnitude of this project and the impact it will have in attracting employees from across the region, it was critical to utilize data not just from the metropolitan statistical area of Dubuque County but region-wide. (Refer to Appendix VII for the supporting data). 3. In establishing regional eligibility, the region has experienced stagnate population growth and has a medium population age of 40.2. Within the ECIA EDA District the following populations loss has been experienced from 2000 to 2006 based on U.S. Census Bureau statistics: Cedar County - 1.1%, Jackson County -1.3%, Delaware County -5.1%, Clinton County -2.2%, and Jones County had a .9% increase and Dubuque County a 3.6% increase. (Refer to Appendix VII for supporting data). Based on the Iowa Workforce Development Laborshed Analysis for the region, 4.2% of the population is underemployed. As mentioned in A.3.b., the region was impacted in this past year by severe flooding... Recovering from these floods has remained a major challenge. Over a billion dollars in damage was estimated state-wide. People, businesses, crops, roads, rail roads, and infrastructure were all impacted and damaged by the floods of 2008. Recovery will take years. Dubuque, Delaware, Jones, Cedar, Clinton, and Jackson Counties were declared disaster counties due to the flood. Unemployment rates have increased throughout the region in ties past year. From January, 2008 to January, 2009 rates have increased from an average of 5.0% in the region to an average of 6.5%. Finally, due to the national recession and economic crisis, the region has experienced negative impacts on the manufacturing sector. Over 782 people have been displaced from their jobs since the start of 2009 in the manufacturing area. 4. This project will provide a "substantial direct benefit" to residents of this entire Economic Development District. The project is located in downtown Dubuque and will have a significant impact on the distressed census tract in which IBM is locating. The Roshek Building is located in Census Tract 1 within the City of Dubuque, Iowa in Dubuque County with the EDA benefits being received within Census Tract 1. Census Tract 1 encompasses the majority of downtown Dubuque. Census Tract 1 has 24.9% of its population at or below the federal poverty line and the average income is 58.9% of the area average.

It is the intention of the parties hereto that during the 4 term of the Lease (inclusive of any extensions thereof) Employer (as tenant under the Lease.) shall, as a result of the Employer Economic Development Grant payments described in this Section 2.1, continue to pay said Real Estate Taxes in amounts that (on a net basis, fo{lowing payment by Employer of amounts required under the Lease and then subsequent payment by the City of the Employer Economic Development Grants described herein) will result in an effective tax rate for Employer equal to the Initial Tax Rate, so long as Employer complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Initial Tax Rate may be increased only by the additional amounts resulting from the application of certain statutory provisions {i.e., Iowa Code sec. 403.19(a)(2), or any successor thereto) in the calculation of tax increment revenues described below. (1) (i) For and in consideration of Employer's obligations hereunder, and in furtherance of the goals and objectives of the Urban Renewal Plan for the Project Area and the Urban Renewal Law, City agrees, subject to Employer being in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, to make forty (40) consecutive semi-annual payments (such payments being referred to individually as an "Employer Economic Development Grant," and collectively, as the "Employer Economic Development Grants") to Employer if Employer leases the Property pursuant to the Lease on the applicable payment dates later described (immediately below) in this Section. The Employer Economic Development Grants shall be payable as follows: November 1, 2010 May 1, 2011 November 1, 2011 May 1, 2012 November 1, 2012 May 1, 2013 November 1, 2013 May 1, 2014 November 1, 2014 May 1, 2015 November 1, 2015 May 1, 2016 November 1, 2016 May 1, 2017 November 1, 2017 May 1, 2018 November 1, 2018 May 1, 2019 November 1, 2019 May 1, 2020 November 1, 2020 May 1, 2021 November 1, 2021 May 1, 2022 November 1, 2022 May 1, 2023 November 1, 2023 May 1, 2024 November 1, 2024 May 1, 2025 November 1, 2025 May 1, 2026 November 1, 2026 May 1, 2027 November 1, 2027 May 1, 2028 November 1, 2028 May 1, 2029 November 1, 2029 May 1, 2030 pursuant to Iowa Code Section 403.9 of the Urban Renewal Law, in amounts equal to the portion of the tax increment revenues collected by City described 5 below under Iowa Code Section 403.19 (without regard to any averaging that may otherwise be utilized under Iowa Code Section 403.19 and excluding any interest that may accrue thereon prior to payment to Employer) during the preceding six-month period in respect of the "Employer Minimum Improvements" (also, sometimes, defined herein, as the "Minimum Improvements") constructed by Employer and/or Developer (the "Employer Tax Increments"). For purposes of calculating the amount of the Employer Economic Development Grants provided in this Section, the Employer Tax Increments shall be deemed to be equal in amount to a pro rata share of those tax increment revenues collected by the City in respect of the increase in the assessed value of the Property leased by Employer and Employer's prorated share of the common areas above the assessment of January 1, 1967 {on such date the entire Property was assessed for $567,000.00). The Employer Tax Increments shall not include (i) any property taxes collected for the payment of bonds and interest of each taxing district, (ii) any taxes collected for the regular and voter-approved physical plant and equipment levy, and (iii) any other portion required to be excluded by Iowa law, and thus such incremental taxes will not include all amounts paid by Employer as regular property taxes. The assessed value of the Property leased by Employer and the assessed value of the Property other than the part of the Property leased by Employer on any assessment date shall be allocated according to the percent that the part of the Property leased by Employer bears to the total leasable space. (ii) IBM shall have the right to request the City (and the City shall) deliver the Employer Economic Development Grant(s) to the landlord of the Lease or, in the alternative, deliver the Employer Economic Development Grant(s) directly to Employer. Said right of election may be exercised by Employer from time to time, so long as Employer does not make request thereof from the City any more than once in any six (6) month period.

Due to time constraints, we estimated a limited number of predictable impacts, rather than developing a regional input/output model. Because our estimate does not take into consideration an entire range of indirect and induced impacts, our estimate is likely to be conservative. In developing our estimate, we made the following assumptions: ^ The IBM facility will employ 1,300 people, with average annual salaries of $45,000 and fringe benefits equal to approximately 20 percent of salaries. ^ The facility will occupy 130,000 square feet, with first-full-year rent of $18.00/square foot. ^ The facility's 1,300 workers will represent 1,261 unique households (meaning that 3 percent of its workers will be members of households with another worker at the same IBM facility). ^ 30 percent of the facility's employees will rent housing in the Dubuque area, paying average rent of $800 per month, in housing units with an average value of $120,000. ^ 70 percent of the facility's employees will live in owner-occupied housing with an average home value of $234,000. ^ The facility's employees will purchase retail goods and services consistent with those of Midwestern residents included in the US Bureau of Labor Statistics' most recent Consumer Expenditure Survey. ^ We have conservatively estimated that the facility will generate revenues at 25 percent of IBM's average 2007 per-employee revenue level (based on data reported in its annual report). ^ We have conservatively estimated that the facility will spend $65,000 on utilities, $50,000 on locally procured services, and $50,000 on locally procured supplies. ^ We have estimated an average personal federal income tax rate of 12.6 percent, Iowa state income tax rate of 4.0 percent, corporate federal income tax rate of 25.2 percent, and corporate state income tax rate of 6.0 percent. ^ We have estimated that 50 percent of the non-housing expenditures of employees of this IBM facility will remain within the region. ^ We have estimated that average retail sales per business in Dubuque are $750,000, with an average of 2.8 employees earning average salaries of $17,000, and that retail businesses average 3,500 square feet and pay $14.00/square foot to rent commercial buildings with average values of $150,000.
