Notes:
1. Staff assigned prioritized values, from a maximum of 10 to a minimum of 1, based upon his understanding of the City Council and 4B Board’s values for various types of projects.
2. Thevalues in this column include revenues from property taxes, business personal proeprty taxes, and sales taxes.
3. Staff assigned a value, from a maximum of 4 to a minimum of 1, for each project. A value of 4 means that the project will have a significant multiplier effect to bring new money
and/orpeople into our local economy. A value
of 1 means that the project will have little or no multiplier effect to bring new money and/or people into our local economy.
4. Staff assigned a value, from a maximum of 0.15 to a minimum of 0.075, for each type of “primary job” associated with each project type. A value of 0.15 was assigned to higherpaying,whitecollar
, engineering, engineering
design, or executive positions. A value of 0.125 was assigned to highly skilled positions for a process technician and/or advanced manufacturer. A value of 0.10 was assigned to skilled
positions. A value of 0.075 was assigned
tounskilled positions.
5. Data in this column identifies all other local incentives, like PILOT abatements under an existing IDA or scheduled TIRZ reimbursements, that any project may be entitled to receive.
6. The formulas in this column represent staff’s best estimate using regression analysis to tie together all the columns of data. Important assumptions of the formulas are as follows:
xRetail projects are five times (5x) more attractive to the community than industrial projects. For reference, please see page #6 of La Porte’s enclosedTax Abatement Policy.
xEach “project type” is not equal to every other project type. Therefore, each project type’s priority value is included in the formula.
xThe value of incentives that a project is already scheduled to receive, and is shown in the “Project's Existing 10 Year Incentives”, must be deducted from the total tax/PILOT revenuethat
the project is expected to
generate, which is shown in “Project's 10 Year Tax or PILOT Revenue“.
x Each project’s value to create a “multiplier effect” on our local economy should be included. See the values listed under “Project's Multiplier Value (Up to 4)"above.
x Each value in the column for “Regression Analysis” is divided by 1 million to make the values under “Regression Analysis”smaller, more manageable, and easier to compare.
The two (2) basic formulas used in “Regression Analysis” are as follows:
(a) For all Retail, Restaurant, Re-Development, and Waterfront Projects, “Project's PRIORITY Value (Up to 10)” x 5 times“Project's 10 Year Tax or PILOT Revenue” –“Project's Existing
10 Year Incentives”times“Project's
Multiplier Value (Up to 4)”divided by 1 million.
(b) For all Industry and Office Projects,“Project's PRIORITY Value (Up to 10)” x 1 times“Project's 10 Year Tax or PILOT Revenue” –“Project's Existing 10 Year Incentives”times“Project's
Multiplier Value (Up to 4)”divided
by 1 million.
7. The values in this column are simply the value from the column called “Regression Analysis” times $7,500.
8. Data in this column shows the value of incentive recommended for each project type, according to the La Porte’s current Tax Abatement Policy.
Projects identified in dark greentext represent projects that have either already been awarded an incentive grant, or staff has good estimates for the projects.All other projects are

Notes:
1. Staff assigned prioritized values, from a maximum of 10 to a minimum of 1, based upon his understanding of the City Council and 4B Board’s values for various types of projects.
2. Thevalues in this column include revenues from property taxes, business personal proeprty taxes, and sales taxes.
3. Staff assigned a value, from a maximum of 4 to a minimum of 1, for each project. A value of 4 means that the project will have a significant multiplier effect to bring new money
and/orpeople into our local economy. A value
of 1 means that the project will have little or no multiplier effect to bring new money and/or people into our local economy.
4. Staff assigned a value, from a maximum of 0.15 to a minimum of 0.075, for each type of “primary job” associated with each project type. A value of 0.15 was assigned to higherpaying,whitecollar
, engineering, engineering
design, or executive positions. A value of 0.125 was assigned to highly skilled positions for a process technician and/or advanced manufacturer. A value of 0.10 was assigned to skilled
positions. A value of 0.075 was assigned
tounskilled positions.
5. Data in this column identifies all other local incentives, like PILOT abatements under an existing IDA or scheduled TIRZ reimbursements, that any project may be entitled to receive.
6. The formulas in this column represent staff’s best estimate using regression analysis to tie together all the columns of data. Important assumptions of the formulas are as follows:
xRetail projects are five times (5x) more attractive to the community than industrial projects. For reference, please see page #6 of La Porte’s enclosedTax Abatement Policy.
xEach “project type” is not equal to every other project type. Therefore, each project type’s priority value is included in the formula.
xThe value of incentives that a project is already scheduled to receive, and is shown in the “Project's Existing 10 Year Incentives”, must be deducted from the total tax/PILOT revenuethat
the project is expected to
generate, which is shown in “Project's 10 Year Tax or PILOT Revenue“.
x Each project’s value to create a “multiplier effect” on our local economy should be included. See the values listed under “Project's Multiplier Value (Up to 4)"above.
x Each value in the column for “Regression Analysis” is divided by 1 million to make the values under “Regression Analysis”smaller, more manageable, and easier to compare.
The two (2) basic formulas used in “Regression Analysis” are as follows:
(a) For all Retail, Restaurant, Re-Development, and Waterfront Projects, “Project's PRIORITY Value (Up to 10)” x 5 times“Project's 10 Year Tax or PILOT Revenue” –“Project's Existing
10 Year Incentives”times“Project's
Multiplier Value (Up to 4)”divided by 1 million.
(b) For all Industry and Office Projects,“Project's PRIORITY Value (Up to 10)” x 1 times“Project's 10 Year Tax or PILOT Revenue” –“Project's Existing 10 Year Incentives”times“Project's
Multiplier Value (Up to 4)”divided
by 1 million.
7. The values in this column are simply the value from the column called “Regression Analysis” times $7,500.
8. Data in this column shows the value of incentive recommended for each project type, according to the La Porte’s current Tax Abatement Policy.
Projects identified in dark greentext represent projects that have either already been awarded an incentive grant, or staff has good estimates for the projects.All other projects are
