 Topic: New Markets Tax Credits in Middletown?Posted: Jul 13 2017 at 6:02am |

The Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) arm of the U.S. Treasury Department makes available New Markets Tax Credits (NMTC) to assist in the financing of community betterment projects in financially-impacted cities nationwide. One example is the reclamation and reuse of a vacant, dilapidated movie theater in downtown Clarksburg, West Virginia. Detailed below is a brief summary of another undertaking, the Toledo Port Expansion Lane to the Midwest in Ironville, Ohio.
IRONVILLE
9th Congressional District Toledo Port Expansion Opens Express Lane to the Midwest. Called the “express lane to the heart of America,” the Port of Toledo
expanded operations and increased material handling services at
its Midwest terminal, located in a low-income area with a 17 percent
poverty rate.
Finance Fund provided a total of $15.36 million in federal and state
New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) financing to Ironville Improvement,
LLC., a subsidiary of Midwest Terminals of Toledo, Inc. Funding
enables construction of a rail system and infrastructure, an upgrade
of the dock face with sheet tile, purchase and installation of a
material handling system, and land improvements.
The Toledo Port Expansion created 40 permanent full-time jobs
and 160 construction jobs in an area where unemployment is
approaching 13 percent. The Ironville site is owned by Toledo-Lucas
County Port Authority (TLCPA), and operated by Midwest Terminals
of Toledo, Inc. Additional partners include TLCPA who provided a
$10.2 million loan, PNC New Markets Investment Partners, LLC, the
investor, provided an additional $2.5 million in federal allocation.
“Finance Fund’s investment in a port authority is a first,” said
President and CEO James R. Klein. “Investment in this type of
multi-modal, gateway project has long-term positive impact on
economic development, job creation and commerce throughout
the Midwest.”
Located at the mouth of the Maumee River at the west end of
Lake Erie, the Port of Toledo is part of the St. Lawrence Seaway
System. It’s within 20 hours drive time of 72% of the U.S.
population. The 15 terminals are open 365 days of the year and
handle 12 million tons of cargo annually including coal, cement,
petroleum and grain.
The busy port supports Midwest routes with access to major
rail systems including Norfolk-Southern and Canadian National
railroads, interstate trucking (I-75/I-80/90) and air routes. With
an experienced crew and heavy cranes, the terminal can lift, load,
transfer and reload tonnage between rail, trucks and ships on a
24/7 fast-turn basis. “Finance Fund’s NMTC funding comes at an important point in our
expansion,” said Thomas Winston, Toledo Port Authority CFO. “We
are bringing jobs and greater economic development not only to
Toledo, but to the entire Midwest area served by the international
freight that flows through the Toledo Shipyard on Lake Erie.” |

Wondering out loud if New Markets Tax Credits could be utilized to move forward the Sorg Opera House, Strand/Studio Theater or even the Manchester Inn/Snider Building redevelopment projects? It's worth the time and effort to explore further. Could this help be a job creation and economic development game-changer for Middletown?

Here's the answer - yes, but no. Using your example provided about the theater in Clarksburg......here's why - directly from their website...... Funding Strategy The total construction budget to completely renovate, restore, equip and furnish the Robinson Grand Performing Arts Center is $15 million. This excludes all pre-construction costs already invested by the City of Clarksburg. The comprehensive public-private funding model entails: 1) A 2016 Series A Bond to provide working capital 2) A Capital Campaign to raise private contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations 3) Historic State and Federal Tax Credits 4) Proceeds from the newly implemented City of Clarksburg 1 percent sales and use tax through the West Virginia Home Rule Pilot Program. Near as I can tell from my research - the only NMTC issued in 2016 for anything in West Virginia was $2M and it was to some other organization.... I did some further research - because I think this project most closely resembles a project we might undertake here in Middletown - and here's my conclusions: The people of Clarksburg were willing to pay additional sales taxes to fund these projects The people of Middletown I don't think are so willing. Clarksburg is a city of 17k in a region of 50k people Middletown is a city of 50k in a region of 580k people Clarksburg is isolated from larger metro areas. Middletown is relatively adjacent to TWO metro areas. Clarksburg's project is located in an area that is still vibrant - where people live, work and play. Middletown's projects are located in an area that is depressed, declining and devalued. Clarksburg's project is something the city needs - it has no other entertainment venue or movie theater save one outdoor only amphitheater. Middletown has a movie theater and performing arts center - and is adjacent to more than I can count. I could go on for days - but yes - these types of credits are available - but where will the rest of the money come from? Furthermore - exactly which buildings would be renovated and reopened - and how many residents will ACTUALLY utilize the facilities? Will there ever be a return on investment? Bob

Budd Bob - Despite your all too frequent blather, MUSA participants are still waiting for you to do something else other than making provocative and unsolicited comments about possible opportunities to improve Middletown. You'd be well served to once again read comments by others regarding your behavior. Because of your self-appointed fascination with critiquing others, what tangible solutions do you offer given your vast city planning, community development, real estate, mortgage finance, construction and other credentials?

Nelson,
I would think that you are the one with ample time on your hands.... All that I am saying is that you are a one-trick pony - who only knows one subject and that's how to use other peoples money for projects. The issue with any project that we will encounter in this city is that we'll need way more than any government will be willing to fund. So - in your infinite wisdom - tell me please, because I want to know where on earth you're gonna get the rest of the money from the private sector... Oh yeah, that's right. It's not there today - and the appetite for that won't change overnight or even over years, so the answer is there has to be something better. I'm still writing my pseudo-platform, you'll enjoy reading it, but it is still premature. Nelson, I'm trying to like you - but you did ask a question and I gave you answers. It's amazing to me that I do my homework, I research and give you ACCURATE and DEPENDABLE answers - and every time you resort to denigrating my name, talents and ideas, and all I'm trying to do is foster an environment where solutions can be shared and refined and raised to the level of usefulness. Instead of tearing me down - why don't you go after the merits of what I posted instead? Oh yeah, that's right - I am right and you know it. It's 2017 - and a government grant isn't the solution to all of our problems. Bob

Bridgeport Historic Rehabilitation -- Bridgeport, CT
New Markets Tax Credits -- Mixed Use Downtown Redevelopment
The Bridgeport project involved the historic rehabilitation of the two
buildings in the city’s downtown: the Arcade – one of only three remaining
arcades in the United States – and 144 Golden Hill. Connecticut’s largest
city, Bridgeport, had become a symbol of significant poverty and
disinvestment. The project was the second phase of a four-phase revitalization
effort. The CDE, LISC, offered a way to leverage available financing and
close the gap with its $4.9 million in New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC)
allocation authority featuring a mix in equity and debt.
This second phase produced 59 market-rate rental apartments, 46,932
square feet of retail space, and 6,167 square feet of office space. The
project’s four phases were comprised of 500+ housing
units and 200,000 square feet of commercial space within a four-block area
near the Metro-North and Amtrak railroad station. The project contained an
environmentally friendly strategy for reclaiming the community’s existing
physical assets and will include green technology as a design element. Due
to the project’s location in an unproved market with high levels of economic
distress, as well as the scale of investment required for the developer’s multiphase
redevelopment, the project faced significant obstacles securing
adequate financing. LISC’s equity feature product was used to capture federal
Historic Tax Credits in addition to the NMTC. The scale of the Bridgeport project made a large impact on the
city’s physical and economic environment while generating momentum for
other efforts. Additionally, with a new city government in place, with
renewed public investment from the State and other entities, and with an
experienced urban developer onboard, the project restored investor/developer confidence and affirmed that Bridgeport succeeded in major revitalization. |

Again Nelson,
Great idea. Wrong city. All the things that made that project work (.25 mi access to interstates, railway spurs, etc.) don't exist in the problem areas in Middletown. Where is the application to an actual problem we have in Middletown? With all the cheap real estate around here - if industry wanted any of it - they'd already have it. But they don't. There's lots of reasons for that - but for now I'm going to stick with the re-purposing of blighted real estate. Getting all the government grants in the world doesn't solve the problem of old Middletown being what it is today. Furthermore - what you posted (and yes, I must go earn a living now - so I can't do any homework) it shows that $30+M was spent to create 43 permanent jobs? Oh wait - it says retention/creation - so it's actually LESS than 43 jobs. I know - a job is a job - but if this city has to spend a million to create one single solitary job - we are in far more serious trouble than we know. I don't like the math on that one. Perhaps, Nelson, do you have a better example of how a single facility can be repurposed into a job creator? Something like a distribution/fulfillment center or a call center or something like that? Where we get more jobs for less money? I'm not being facetious - I want to find some way to use the property we have to create jobs - the cornerstone to fixing what ails our town. Bob

BUDD BOB -
How sad that you continue FAILING TO COMPREHEND the underlying purpose and value of my providing New Markets Tax Credits, Federal Home Loan Bank - Cincinnati,and successful nationwide HUD Community Development Block Grant/Home Investment Partnerships Programs success stories. Let me remind you one last time, there's value in researching "best practices" community betterment activities being implemented elsewhere. To further explain to you, it's not my intent to dictate or advocate that any of these examples fit perfectly into the Middletown environment. They are only to expand current thinking insofar as priorities, policies, plans and programs are concerned. My last comment to you remains, what concrete, real-world, financially feasible solutions are you advocating for the betterment of Middletown. Please tell us in detail. |

I'm still writing my pseudo-platform, you'll enjoy reading it, but it is still premature" Bob, I strongly encourage you to entertain thoughts of running for council when the next election session is upon us. You will have my vote. I am serious when I propose this to you and have an ulterior motive for suggesting this course of action for you....... If and when you do decide to run, I sincerely hope you win a seat on council. Why? Because it will give you an inside track as to how this city government works and you will see first hand what we have been talking about regarding various topics on this forum. It will provide you with an understanding as to how the money flows from fund to fund without traceability for the average citizen as the money weaves through the maze of complicated confusion to end up far from it's intended purpose. Once in that council seat, I hope you have your eyes open to the concept of back room decisions made out of the public's view that should involve public scrutiny. Pick up on the constant "emergency legislation" to hurry things along even when it is not needed. Witness the special things done for "friends of the city" and be on hand to see the special attention all of council gives to the downtown area while the rest of the city is on it's own. Witness the special agendas for their special friends while they prioritize who gets the mine and who gets the shaft. Experience the exclusionary practice that has been here for decades between the city government and the people of this city. They created the apathy here and they love it. It gives them a distinct advantage when dealing with the city residents. If you decide to play devil's advocate with the mainstream gameplan and decide to "go rogue" as Josh Laubach did at times as he questioned, in public, why city government was doing things the way they did, be prepared to incur the "Mulligan-inner circle wrath" that will follow. It has happened before and caused those who asked questions to give up trying to change the culture. It will take a majority on council to change the bobblehead/rubber stamping way of operation. One person won't be able to do it. And don't start out questioning things on behalf of the people and then change stripes and become the docile team player later on. That is what got Anita Scott-Jones a loss on her last council seat attempt. Bob, I am not being sarcastic here. Given your optimistic, let's give 'em a chance to see what they will do approach you indicate on this forum, it will be interesting to see if and when you change your opinion of city leadership, or if you will give in to their wishes to survive your council term before they force you to resign. I wish you the best if you decide to run for office. It won't be easy, especially if you decide they are the bad guys we say they are here. Expect retaliation if that happens. Oh, and going for the communications job.....go for it. You communicate very well and still have an "untainted" attitude about Middletown and the leadership, unlike most of us. Perhaps the city needs a cheerleader to attempt to overcome the pathetic image the city leaders have created over the last four decades. It will be a tremendous challenge for anyone to turn the city image around. Kinda like curing cancer as to success. Give it a try.....that goes for the council position coming up as well. Good luck |

I do believe the new downtown Middletown Master Plan recently adopted referenced the use of New Market Tax Credits as a development tool for revitalization.

Dear Narcissistic Nelson,
I don't even want the focus on me - I just want you to understand that you've made your point and continually harping about these tax credits isn't helping the city. The city and its leaders would be ridiculous not to take advantage of any/all federal and state tax credits available on any given project. However - I don't think it behooves anyone to jump prematurely into any given project just because there's money available via grants and credits. The community has to support it and get behind it. Bob
