Re: Ordinance No. 50 -14 - Amending Ordinance 14 -96 (Thomas Kohler Tax Increment
Financing (TIF) District)
Summary
Ordinance No. 50 -14 provides for amendments to the existing legislation that established the
Thomas Kohler TIF district. The Thomas Kohler TIF District was established in 1996 through
Ordinance No. 14 -96 to provide a funding mechanism for the construction of Emerald Parkway
between our corporate boundary south of Rings Road and Shier Rings Road, as well as the
construction of Woerner - Temple Road.
In 1999, Council approved modifications to the original TIF (Ordinance No. 138 -99). The
modifications provided for the implementation of a "non- school TIP' after the terms of the
"straight TIP" expired (which was in tax year 2003), extending the period of time "non- school"
service payments would be received by the City.
In 2002, Council approved another modification to the TIF (Ordinance No. 143 -02). This
modification identified additional public infrastructure improvements benefiting the TIF district to
include the relocation and burial of the overhead utility lines.
Staff is currently proposing another amendment to the TIF, which will allow for the public
infrastructure improvements to include the widening of Avery Road from Woerner - Temple Road to
Rings Road West as well as the construction of a roundabout at the intersection of Avery Road and
Rings Road West. As part of the 2014 — 2018 CIP, project design was programmed in 2014 with
the construction and landscaping reflected beyond 2018. Intersection control options for Avery
Road and Rings Road East will be evaluated during detailed design.
The required notice has been sent to the Dublin City School District and Tolles Career & Technical
Center.
Copies of Ordinance No. 14 -96, Ordinance No. 138 -99 and Ordinance No. 143 -02 as well as a TIF
map are attached for reference.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that Council adopt Ordinance No. 50 -14 at the second reading /public hearing on
June 23, 2014.

Date: December 9, 1999
Re: Ordinance 138 -99, An Ordinance Amending Ordinance No. 14 -96 (Thomas/Kohler TIF)
to Provide a Funding Mechanism for the Continued Construction of Emerald Parkway
Initiated by: Marsha I. Grigsby, Director of Finance X*4&
Ordinance No. 138 -99 provides an amendment to the existing legislation that established the
Thomas/Kohler TIF district. The modification to the original legislation was previously discussed as part
of the proposed incentive package with Qwest Communications International ( Qwest). At this time, Qwest
has put their decision to consolidate their Central Ohio operations "on hold "; however, it is important to
maintain the flexibility provided by this amendment to fund the Emerald Parkway project for any future
development. As you are aware Two Parkwood, the second office building in the TIF district, is under
construction with a scheduled completion in mid -2000. More importantly, this financing mechanism will
allow the City to continue to more aggressively fund roadway projects, an established City Council goal.
As discussed in the August 5, 1999 memo to City Council, the TIF district in effect for the "Thomas/Kohler
site" included the Emerald Parkway from Shier Rings Road to Innovation Drive roadway project in the
Description of the Public Improvements. The modification proposed in Ordinance No. 138 -99 provides
for the implementation of a "non- school district' TIF after the terms of the "straight TIF" expire. By
extending the period of time that service payments can be received, the City will be able to utilize the TIF
to fund a portion of the project costs for the Emerald Parkway from Shier Rings Road to Innovation Drive
4 project.
As identified in Section 3 of this Ordinance, any amendments or supplements to the existing TIF/Economic
v . Development Agreement between the City and the developers will be submitted to City Council at the
applicable time. Any amendments or supplements would, in substance, mirror this Ordinance, but would
also include specific details related to the economic development project.
For reference, the August 5, 1999 memo and related exhibits are attached. If you have any questions, please
do not hesitate to contact Marsha.

CITY OF DUBLIN
-- Memo
w To: Members of Dublin City Council
From: Timothy C. Hansley, City Manager
Date: August 5, 1999
Re: Incentive Package for Qwest Communications International
Initiated by: Richard B. Helwig, Director of Development
Marsha I. Grigsby, Director of Finance
Background
As City Council is aware, Qwest Communications International ( Qwest) plans to consolidate and
expand its operations currently existing in Central Ohio. In an effort to encourage this expansion
and growth to occur in Dublin, Mr. Donald Hunter, representative for Duke -Weeks (formerly Duke
Realty Investments), has requested that the City provide an incentive package to Qwest in order
to be competitive with other sites in Central Ohio. As a result of Mr. Hunter's request, at the July
6, 1999 City Council meeting, City Council, by motion, directed Staff to work with Duke -Weeks
to create an incentive package to retain and allow for Qwest to grow in Dublin.
Evaluation Completed to Develop an Incentive Package
As a result of City Council's direction, City Staff began reviewing the information packet prepared
by Mr. Hunter and evaluating potential mechanisms available to fund an incentive package.
Based on discussions with Mr. Hunter and Qwest representatives since the July 6, 1999 City
Council meeting, Staff feels confident the Qwest expansion will occur in either Dublin or Hilliard.
The City of Hilliard has offered 100% tax abatement for 15 years on all new private improvements
constructed for Qwest. The projected value of this incentive for an initial 200,000 square -foot
office building is $6.7 million over the 15 -year period. Any additional expansion would also
receive tax abatement.
Based on Hilliard's offer, Mr. Hunter requested Dublin provide an incentive package offering
$400,000 a year to Qwest for a period of 12 years in connection with Qwest making a 200,000
square -foot lease commitment in the Two Parkwood/Three Parkwood buildings for a total current
incentive value of $4.8 million. In addition to the $4.8 million, an additional payment of up to
$236,000 per year was requested if the expansion was beyond the initial 200,000 square -foot lease.
This could potentially result in the current value of the incentive reaching in excess of $7.6 million.
In evaluating the City's options, it is important to keep in mind that if Qwest were to expand their
Page 2
operations in Hilliard instead of Dublin, the City would lose approximately 1,100 employees who
are currently working in Dublin next year when the new facility is completed. This would result
in an annual loss of approximately $858,000 in withholding income tax revenue or approximately
$10.3 million over the term of the 12 -year lease with Duke. There would also be the potential to
lose the 1,150 employees who are located at One Parkwood at some point in the future.
Our first goal in looking at what incentive package to propose was "What can we offer without
62' negatively impacting our current financial position and capital improvements program ?" We began
looking at options to fund roadway projects that are programmed in the 2000 -2004 Capital
Improvements Program (CIP) and specifically those projects that have a direct impact on this
development. We also looked at new income tax revenues that would be generated from existing
Qwest employees involved in the consolidation who are not currently working in Dublin. We have
identified three items that can mitigate the impact of the proposed incentive.
Item #1
The tax increment financing (TIF) district currently in effect for the "Thomas/Kohler site" included
several roadway projects in the Description of the Public Improvements (Exhibit 1) that we are
currently planning to fund with income tax revenues. We can utilize service payments, instead of
income tax revenues, for partial funding if the TIF agreement is modified to a "non- school TIF"
after the terms of the "straight TIF" expire (Exhibit 2). The only project that is being partially
funded from the Thomas/Kohler TIF is Emerald Parkway from Rings Road north to the northern
property line of the Thomas/Kohler site and Parkwood Place which is an internal roadway to the
Thomas/Kohler site.
By modifying the TIF, we can utilize service payments instead of income tax revenues to fund,
over time, the estimated construction cost of Emerald Parkway from Shier Rings Road to
Innovation Drive. This would result in an estimated $2 million in income tax revenues previously
programmed for the project being available for the Qwest incentive package.
Item #2
Another project identified in the Descriptions of the Public Improvements is the widening of
Emerald Parkway from Rings Road to Tuttle Crossing Boulevard (formerly known as Britton
Parkway). Mr. Hunter has been working with the City of Columbus and the State of Ohio,
Department of Development (DOD), to obtain the majority of the funding for this project. Because
of the number of jobs involved with the Qwest project, he has received an informal commitment
from DOD for $750,000 to $1,000,000 for this project. The City of Columbus has informally
committed to at least $600,000 for this project because a portion of the roadway is within
Columbus and will also provide a benefit to the existing development in Columbus. The remaining
$400,000 to $650,000 has been identified as Dublin's share of the project.
Staff has requested that the DOD funding be redirected to the Emerald Parkway from Perimeter
Drive to Shier Rings Road project (Overpass Project) and allow the modified TIF to fund the
portion of the Emerald Parkway from Rings Road to Tuttle Crossing project that was being
proposed to be funded by DOD funds. The portion proposed to be funded by Dublin can also be
funded by the modified TIF. This would result in $750,000 to $1,000,000 in income tax revenues
Page 3
previously programmed for the Overpass Project to be available for the Qwest incentive package.
Item #3
The Qwest consolidation would result in an additional 125 employees being located in Dublin in
mid -2000. The estimated average annual salary per employee will be approaching $40,000. This
increase in employees would result in an additional $100,000 annually in withholding income tax
.r. revenues collected by the City.
Qwest has also identified their intentions to create 500 new jobs within a three -year period. This
increase in employment would further increase annual withholding income tax revenues by
$400,000.
Staff has also been involved in discussions with the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT)
with regard to financing both the Emerald Parkway projects, Perimeter Drive to Shier Rings Road
and Shier Rings Road to Innovation Drive, through ODOT's State Infrastructure Bank (SIB) loan
program. If we can utilize the SIB loan program, savings in the form of lower interest payments
over the term of the debt will be realized.
Proposed Incentive Package
Based on Items #1 - 3, the financial impact of the proposed incentive package can be mitigated.
The following can offset the $4 million incentive paid over the ten -year period:
• $2,000,000 in service payments from a modified Thomas/Kohler TIF for the Emerald
Parkway -Shier Rings Road to Innovation Drive project;
• $750,000 to $1,000,000 received from DOD for the Emerald Parkway - Perimeter Drive
to Shier Rings Road project;
• The new withholding income tax revenue generated by the 125 new jobs relocating to
Dublin as a result of the consolidation, which is estimated at $100,000 a year or
$1,000,000 over the term of the incentive package.
Conclusion
Staff feels the proposed incentive, in conjunction with the City's past and future investment in
roadways, represents a competitive offer that will not adversely impact our financial position or
capital program.

Exhibit 2
Information on the Existing and Proposed ylodified Thomas/Kohler Tax Increment Financin;
Agreement
Explanation of Terms
"Straight TIF" - payments in lien of taxes, service payments, received by the City are based on 100%
of the incremental increase in real property value as a result of the private improvements (i.e., office
building)
"Non- school TIF" — payments in lieu of taxes, service payments, received by the City are based on
100% of the incremental increase in real property value as a result of the private improvements less
the distribution to the Dublin City School District in an amount equal to the amount they would have
received in real estate taxes had the TIF not been established.
General Information
The Thomas/Kohler TIF established by Ordinance No. 14 -96 is currently a "straight TIF"' with a cap
of ten years or $3 million in service payments. This was the first TIF executed by the City alter
Senate Bill 19 took effect on July 1, 1994. SB 19 placed restriction on the use of TIFs and
Community Reinvestment Areas (CRAs). As a result, the City executed a Revenue Sharing
Agreement with the Dublin City School District allowing the City to establish a "straight TIF"
without having to share the withholding income tax revenues generated within the TIF district.
Based on service payments received to date and estimated future services payments from One
Parkwood and Two Park the S3 million cap on service payments will be reached by the end
of 2002 or mid -2003, within 5 to 5.5 years of receiving our first service payments.
The modified TIF, a "non- school TIF" would generate an estimated 5420,000 a year in service
payments to the City. This estimate is based on the existing One Parkwood building and the
construction of Two Parkwood and Three Parkwood. Duke -Weeks is also projecting the
construction of three additional buildings over the next four years. These additional buildings are
estimated to generate additional service payments in the amount of 5240,000 per year. This would
result in the "non- school TIF," at full development, being in effect for a period of 5 to 9 years
depending upon the interest cost to finance the projects.

Re: Ordinance No. 143 -02, An Ordinance Amending Ordinance No. 14 -96 Passed April 1,
1996, As Amended by Ordinance 138 -99 Passed January 3, 2000, To Supplement The
Public Improvements To Be Made To Benefit The Parcels Identified In Those
Ordinances, And Declaring An Emergency. (Thomas /Kohler TIF)
SUMMARY:
As discussed at the November 18, 2002 City Council meeting and as directed by Resolution No.
41 -02, the administration has worked with Squire, Sanders & Dempsey, LLC, the City's bond
counsel, to prepare legislation amending the existing legislation related to the Thomas /Kohler tax
increment financing (TIF) district. This amendment identifies additional public infrastructure
improvements that will benefit the parcels included in the TIF district. The additional public
infrastructure improvements include the relocation and burying underground of overhead cables,
wires and the appurtenant equipment which benefit, or will benefit, the TIF parcels once made.
These improvements include American Electric Power's (AEP) 138 KV transmission line project
that is needed to resolve current and future electric needs of the City, including the parcels within
the TIF district.
This TIF district was previously amended by Ordinance No 138 -99 to provide for a "non- school"
TIF after the terms of the "straight" TIF expire. The "straight" TIF will expire tax year 2003,
calendar year 2004, and the "non- school" TIF will continue through tax year 2026.
As identified in Resolution No. 41 -02, the City will fund 50% of the defined "additional" costs,
estimated to be $1,286,000, associated with the desired route and placement of the 138 KV
transmission lines to be installed by AEP. We intend to utilize the Thomas/Kohler TIF to fund
$643,000 of the City's estimated project costs. This will result in the City's reimbursement of
previously advanced funds to be deferred. This will not impact projected General Fund and /or
Capital Improvements Tax Fund revenues because it was assumed no repayments of past advances
would be made in the next five years. Sufficient funds are currently available in the
Thomas/Kohler TIF Fund to make payment of the $643,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that Ordinance No. 143 -02 be passed as an emergency at the December 9, 2002
City Council meeting. Passage as an emergency is requested in order that provision for the
additional infrastructure improvements is effective immediately upon passage.
