PROGRAM OF WORK
EDGEWATER ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT BOARD
VISION STATEMENT
To be a viable partner in strengthening the economic base and the growth of commerce
and industry in the City of Edgewater leading to it's becoming a model city within the
State of Florida.
MISSION STATEMENT
It is the mission of the Economic Development Board (Board) for the City of Edgewater
to follow the dictates of the Edgewater City Council, to create a business environment
that is favorable to clean industrial and commercial development, and to serve as a
catalyst in the production of quality jobs that will result in greater financial strength for
the citizens of Edgewater and the surrounding community.
STRATEGY
In establishing a strategic approach to fulfilling its mission, the Board identified a number
of issues/items and partnership linkages that need to be considered/addressed in order to
reach its goals and measure the results.
The health, as well as the growth of existing businesses/industries is vital to the
community's future. Among the issues/items that need to be considered in developing
this program of work were: a) current restrictions, b) business expansion incentives, c) an
adequate data base about local businesses and their concerns, d) partnership linkages with
other public and private organizations/resources that support ongoing business operations
(see list in appendix A).
The Board also addressed creation/expansion of efforts to attract new business/industry
and how we can work with other local, regional and state organizations —both public and
private — to develop databases and to hone in on targeted industries, develop the
marketing tools/incentives and the linkages and mechanisms necessary to attract them.
Edgewater and the surrounding area have become a center for manufacturing in the
•
Southeast Volusia County area. The Board has developed a program consisting of tasks
and partnership linkages to achieve the mission statement. In developing the program,
the Board considered the items enumerated above that affect both existing and new
business/industries. Each task of the program includes the costs and resources to
accomplish it and how to measure the results.
The Board prepared statistics and comparisons of cities using 1980, 1990, and 2000
census data and Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFR's). These statistics
illustrate how the 1990-2000 decade compares with the previous decade.

TASK NUMBER 1 —POTENTIAL TARGET INDUSTRIES
Developable industrial land is a limited resource and must be consumed judiciously. For
the benefit of the City taxpayers, one objective must be to use that land for industries that
generate the most ad valorem tax revenue per acre consumed. A second and equally
important objective is to use the land for industries producing more and higher paying
jobs per acre.
Table 1, Potential Targeted Industries, contains data for various industries. In part 1 of
the table, the industries are listed in column 1 and the Standard Industry Code (SIC) is
listed in column 2. Column 3 is the parcel ID for the representative industry and column
4 indicates the area of ParkTowne„Industrial Center where this type of industry could be
placed. The data for the last 4 columns is obtained from public records of the Volusia
County Property Appraiser.
Part 2 of the table continues the data for these target industries. Column 1 is the
combined value of the land, building(s), and miscellaneous improvements from part 1.
Column 3 is the tangible personal property (machinery, fixtures, tools, etc.) value
obtained from the property appraiser's records. The millage rate of $25.60 per $1,000
assessed value is applied to columns 2 and 4 to obtain the property tax per acre listed in
columns 5 and 6. The real estate tax and tangible personal property tax per acre is
combined to show the total tax per acre in column 7. Employee data, where available, is
shown in columns 8 through 11. Column 12 is the ratio of tangible personal property tax
to real estate tax. Column 13 indicates the number of single family, owner occupied,
residential units required to produce the same ad valorem tax revenue as the industry.
The assessed value of the residential units is determined by subtracting the $25,000
homestead exemption from the median value of$77,500 obtained from the 2000 census.
Finally, the last column shows the residential unit density that would be required to
produce the same ad valorem tax revenue as the industry.
Table 1 contains many fields that are blank. This is simply because there is incomplete
data or no data for the particular industries. However, this does not diminish the
usefulness of Table 1. Columns 7, 9 and 14 tell the story.
Column 9 indicates that machine shop/repair provides the most employees per acre but
column 7 shows that this industry produces only 43% as much ad valorem tax revenue as
the injection molding industry. Comparing the equivalent residential units per acre for
boat building, sales and service (15.2), manufacturing — general (11.1), aircraft
manufacturing (6.4), and injection molding (36.2), the variation is easily explained. The
space requirement for boat and aircraft products is large compared to general
manufacturing and injection molding. Injection molding is more compact and automated
with more expensive machinery.

TASK NUMBER 2 — HOW MANY OF THE 1993 BOARD GOALS HAVE
BEEN ACCOMPLISHED?
In 1993, the Economic Development Board established a series of goals. The new
Board has reviewed and evaluated these goals and has either incorporated, amended or
deleted those benchmarks based upon current economic conditions and program needs.
1.Establish an industrial/economic development policy and a plan for implementing
the policy.
Response: No,but this Program of Work addresses most of these concerns.
2. Add an economic development line item to the general fund budget.
• Response: This was accomplished and existed for about 4 years but was removed
again last year, due to the lack of a definitive program of work.
3. Create an economic development trust fund.
Response: No, neither current economic conditions nor the proposed Program of
Work require such a fund at this time.
4. Make site plan approval automatically valid for 5 years with option to apply for
extensions.
Response: No, at time of original draft of this document approval was good for 180
days, no extensions, need to reapply. Currently it is good for 1 year with possible 1-
year extension.
5. Make building plan approval valid for 2 years with option to apply for
extensions.
Response: No — approval is good for 6 months. Extensions are permitted for a fee
and are good for 90 days each as long as progress is being made.
6. Make concurrent site plan/building plan submittal the standard with separate
sequential submittals an option.
Response: Yes although everyone does not always do it this way. Site plan
approval must be in place before a building permit is granted.
7. Provide an optional alternative to the existing site plan approval process.
Response: No—Go by what is in land development code.
8. Shorten the existing site plan approval process.
6
Response: Yes—now it typically takes 60 to 90 days.
9. The city should prepare for and seek approval authority that state and county
agencies are willing to delegate as soon as practical.
Response: No —potential issue of needing area(s) of expertise that the city does not
have.
10. Allow speculative industrial site plan approval.
Response: Yes—particularly in ParkTowne Industrial Center.
11. Review and modify the land development codes that add cost to development
but are not justified as protecting the health and safety of the public.
Response: Yes — replacement trees no longer need to be 4 inch caliper, is now 2.5
inches; parking requirements are now up to Technical Review Committee using
common sense; landscape buffer can serve dual purpose. May be more changes not
uncovered when reviewed.
12. Request Edgewater area council of the SEVCC sponsor a design seminar for
city council and advisory board members.
Response: No. Had been considered but not done. Would be much easier now that
ParkTowne Industrial Center is up and running.

TASK NUMBER 3 - ECONOMIC INCENTIVES
TASK NUMBER 3.1 —AD VALOREM TAX EXEMPTION
Edgewater was the first city in Volusia County to adopt the exemption, which, by
state statute, is tied to job creation and sunsets in 10 years. The exemption expired in
2002 and was only used twice, in each case by an expanding existing business.
Following Edgewater's lead, other cities have since adopted the exemption.
According to an article in the May 12, 2003 News-Journal, a referendum on this
exemption is being discussed in Flagler County.
Presented below are the features of the ordinance as proposed in 1992 (92-0-13), and
a comparative evaluation of the effect of that proposed ordinance.
FEATURES OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE 92-0-13 (Appendix B)
• It must be approved by referendum. If approved, the authority granted to the City
Council by referendum automatically expires after 10 years.
• It applies only to new or expanding manufacturing businesses that meet the
definitions of a manufacturing business in Section 1.
• It applies to any company that meets the qualifications.
• To qualify, the company must produce 10 or more new jobs to employ 10 or more
fulltime employees. (Section l.a. and b.).
• To qualify, the 10 or more new fulltime employees must be paid at a median
income greater than the most current Volusia County average income. (Section
1.a. and b.).
• An individual ordinance is required for each company.
• Granting of exemption to each qualified company is not mandatory. The council
retains the option to deny the exemption even if the company meets the
qualification criteria. This is intended to give the City a means to react to varying
economic conditions.
• At the time each individual ordinance is submitted for Council approval, a fiscal
note, including cumulative effects of prior exemptions, is provided as an integral
part of the individual ordinance. (Item 8, page 1).
8
• If the exemption is granted, it does not take effect until January 1 of the following
year. (Item 9.,page 2)
• If granted, the exemption is for ten years, subject to revocation. (Section 2.)
• If granted, the exemption is 100 percent of the assessed value of all improvements
and tangible personal property identified in the individual ordinance. (Section 2.).
Note that FS 196.1995 does not authorize exempting the land; therefore it
continues to generate tax revenues.
• If the exemption is granted, the company must certify annually that it is
continuing to use the exempted property for a manufacturing purpose. (Item 11,
page 2, and Section 3.).
• If the company fails to file the certificate or fails to operate as a manufacturing
business, the City Manager shall revoke the exemption. In this case, the company
may request a hearing before the City Council, which shall make the final decision
on revocation. (Section 4.).
• It provides the maximum exemption permitted by the enabling legislation.
APPLICATION OF 92-0-13 TO A PROPOSED INDUSTRIAL BUILDING
In the fall of 1991, a small plastic products manufacturing company expressed an
interest in locating a new facility in Volusia County. The company would initially
provide 8 jobs and was interested in constructing about 6000 square feet of building
area with options to expand in the future.
The building and site proposed to the company is used to illustrate the application of
92-0-13 to a new manufacturing facility. Please keep in mind that this example does
not include the value of the tangible personal property, which for a manufacturing
facility could easily exceed the total value of the building and land.
The site is a corner lot fronting on West Park Avenue and consists of 1.03 acres
assessed in 1990 at $34,811. Water and sewer are available along Park Avenue. The
price for the improved site, including building, all sitework and landscaping is
$231,061.
In calculating the ad valorem tax revenues, it was assumed that inflation was constant
at 4 percent per year and that Edgewater's ad valorem tax rate remained constant at
$4.60 per $1,000. In addition, it was assumed that the developed site would be
assessed at the full $231,061 improved value.
If the property remains undeveloped over the next 20 years, it will produce for the
City a total tax revenue of$4,764 and no jobs.
9
If the property had been developed as proposed, without effect of the ordinance, over
the next 20 years it would have produced for the City a total tax revenue of$31,623
and 14 jobs. These jobs consist of 8 proposed by the company(keep in mind that the
company could transfer 8 existing employees from its out of state location) and 6
additional jobs in the community,primarily in retail and service.
If the property had been developed as proposed, but with the ordinance in effect, over
the next 20 years it would have produced for the City a total tax revenue of$20,794
and 17 jobs. With a modification of Section 1 of the proposed ordinance, these jobs
would consist of 10 new jobs for 10 new employees at a specified minimum median
income, and 7 additional jobs in the community, primarily in retail and service. A
year-by-year comparison is shown in Table 2 and Chart 1.
The next to last column of the'table compares the cumulative gain (loss) effect of the
ordinance to the present undeveloped condition. While it is certain that the City will
incur some costs for such services as police, fire, and rescue, this analysis also does
not include the potential benefit of increases in land value due to the development
taking place.
The last column of the table compares the cumulative gain(loss) effect of the
ordinance to development without the ordinance. Over the lifetime of the analysis,
the City will realize a cumulative loss of$10,838, i.e. after the expiration of the
exemption at 10 years; the cumulative loss does not increase. This amounts to a 10-
year annual investment of$108.38 for each of the 10 new jobs created at a specified
minimum median income. In terms of 17 jobs, this is a 10-year annual investment of
$63.75 for each new job created.

TASK NUMBER 4—STATISTICS, COMPARISON WITH OTHER CITIES 12
In 1993, the Industrial Development Board published a report titled "INDUSTRIAL
DEVELOPMENT — THE ENGINE TO DRIVE EDGEWATER'S FUTURE
ECONOMIC GROWTH". Appendix A of that report included a comparison of
Edgewater with four other Volusia County Cities. That data, which covered the
1981-1990 decade, has been expanded to include the 1991-2000 decade, and is
presented in Tables 3 through 5
It was evident from the comparison that the increase in assessable tax base varied
inversely with rate of population growth over the 1981-1990 decade. The growth
rate varied from a low of 7 percent for DeLand to a high of 109 percent for
Edgewater. This is shown in graphic form on Chart 2.
Chart 3 shows the variation for the 1991-2000 decade for the same cities. In this
decade, the growth rate varied from a low of 21 percent for New Smyrna Beach to a
high of 31 percent for Port Orange. Although the growth rate spread is not as broad
as in the previous decade, the trend of increase in assessable tax value varying
inversely with rate of population growth is still evident.
Chart 4 shows the variation for the twenty-year period ending in the year 2000. For
this period, the growth rate varied from a low of 36 percent for DeLand to a high of
154 percent for Edgewater. The trend is still evident, i.e. the cities with the slowest
population growth experienced the highest growth in per capita tax base for the
population added.
Chart 5 presents general fund expenditures per capita in year 2000 dollars. In the
1991-2000 decade, only Ormond Beach experienced a decrease in general fund
expenditures per capita. Chart 6 illustrates the assessed taxable value in year 2000
dollars per capita versus year. As in Chart 5, only Ormond Beach experienced a
decrease in taxable value.
Chart 7 illustrates the most significant trend for the cities, in particular Edgewater.
This chart presents the ratio of assessed taxable value (wealth) per capita, to the
general fund expenditure per capita in year 2000 dollars. It is an indication of the
ability of the city to provide funds for the general fund budget. If a rapid build-out of
ParkTowne Industrial Center can be achieved, the downward trend in the 1991-2000 -
decade may be tempered, if not reversed. Also, rapid build-out of the Consolidated
Prestress site should help since the proposed sale price of the units is over $300,000
each.

TASK NUMBER 5-EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES—IN COUNTY
TASK NUMBER 5.1 - QUALIFIED WORK FORCE
GOAL
The goal of this task is to address issues of having a fully qualified workforce(entry—to high
skilled). This would be accomplished with the assistance of our Workforce Development,
Business Development and Education partners through the identification of available training
resources and specific job field needs.
BENEFITS
The City would benefit greatly (if the businesses, new and old), had resources to adapt to
changing market needs through both training and retraining of workforce. Prospective
businesses would know that the city and community had existing resources and mechanisms
in place to train and qualify workers to specific job needs i.e.: One-Stop Career Center
sponsored training as well as DBCC developed curricula.
EVALUATION METHODS
We should have existing businesses provide information on issues related to the specific
training needs of their employees. We can do this by survey at future business-to-business
Expos or Forums as well as by direct interview and mail questionnaires to area businesses.
We can measure the results next year with follow up interviews and questionnaires. The
results can be presented by developing a brochure featuring case studies indicating resources
within the community and appropriate statistics demonstrating business success in training a
workforce.
TIMEF'RAME
This task will be accomplished through ongoing efforts to inform the community about
educational activities. This would include holding the first in a series of High School
Academy Showcases and a forum of successful business education partnerships at BFMC in
October 2004 for both Business and Community leaders. It would highlight benefits of
partnerships and discuss responsibilities and steps to successful training.
RESOURCES NEEDED
The Board will survey business and industry needs within the Edgewater Community on an
annual basis and develop the mechanisms to bridge the express needs of employers with the
resources of work force development groups i.e. DBCC, One Stop Career Center, etc.
IN-HIND LABOR AND MATERIAL 21
This task can be accomplished in part with in-kind labor and material through partnerships
with DBCC and NSBHS, and academy and work-study partners. However, money will be
needed to fund secretarial support: for brochures and survey development; marketing and
coordination of showcase and forums.
Note: the additional work staffing need might be met through the part time employment of a
senior student majoring in Public Administration enrolled at DBCC.
