V. OLD BUSINESS:
A. Fulton County Site Inventory Report:
- Status Report:
- FCCRG’s Site Committee met on June 23, 2022.
B. Nexus Renewables Project:
- NYSERDA is now providing an additional financial incentive for solar projects.
- NYSERDA has increased its financial incentive from 12 cents/watt of energy produced to 19 cents.
- Nexus’ proposed project at Tryon is 3 MW or 3 million watts.
- The 19 cents/watt incentive will total $570,000 for Nexus’ project.
C. Vireo Health Project:
- PILOT/Lease:
- At present, Innovative Industrial Properties (IIP) owns the land upon which the 324,000 SF building is being constructed on.
- If a Lease/PILOT was to be executed, the structure would be for IIP, as record owner, to lease the project to Vireo. Vireo leases to IDA and IDA leases back to Vireo.
- As such, in the event of a default on PILOT payments, the IDA could go after both Vireo and IIP to recapture real property tax exemptions taken in accordance with the IDA’s Uniform Tax Exemption Policy (UTEP).
- IIP is not comfortable being on the hook for PILOT payments Vireo did not make or recaptured payments if Vireo defaults.
- At present, the IDA’s UTEP says that if the IDA decides to recapture real property tax exemptions, it would do so as follows:
Years 1-5 of PILOT: 100% of the real property tax exemptions granted shall be repaid to the affected taxing jurisdictions, unless agreed to otherwise, in writing, by the applicable taxing jurisdiction
Years 6-7 of PILOT: 75% of the real property tax exemptions granted shall be repaid to the affected taxing jurisdictions, unless agreed to otherwise, in writing, by the applicable taxing jurisdiction
Years 8-9 of PILOT: 50% of the real property tax exemptions granted shall be repaid to the affected taxing jurisdictions, unless agreed to otherwise, in writing, by the applicable taxing jurisdiction
Year 10 of PILOT: 25% of the real property tax exemptions granted shall be repaid to the affected taxing jurisdictions, unless agreed to otherwise, in writing, by the applicable taxing jurisdiction
Years 11+ of PILOT: 0% of the real property tax exemptions granted shall be repaid to the affected taxing jurisdictions.
- IIP has advised that, to be comfortable with the PILOT structure, IIP would like the following stipulations incorporated into the Lease/PILOT:
- IIP would receive from the IDA any notice of defaults sent to Vireo and Vireo/IIP given an opportunity to cure.
- Modify the Recapture language in the PILOT so that recapture of PILOT benefits would be prohibited for years Vireo was in compliance. For instance, if Vireo was in good standing for years 1-3 but defaults in year 4, the IDA could only go after year 4 and not any of the exemptions received in years 1, 2 or 3.
- In the event Vireo goes defunct, IIP would have a period of 2 years to find another company to take over and operate the facility. The PILOT would be halted during this period with requirement to pay full taxes and then go back to PILOT if a new company takes over.
Stipulations 2 and 3 above would constitute “Deviations” from the IDA’s UTEP. The UTEP specifically authorizes the IDA to make deviations per the following language in the UTEP:
- The Agency reserves the right to deviate from any provision in this Uniform Tax Exemption Policy in special circumstances. In determining whether special circumstances exist to justify a deviation, the Agency may consider factors, which include but not be limited to the following:a. The magnitude and/or importance of any permanent private sector job creation and/or retention of existing jobs related to the Project.
b. The impact of the Project on existing and proposed businesses and/or economic development projects.
c. The amount of private sector investment generated or likely to be generated by the Project.
d. Demonstrated public support/opposition for the Project.
e. The estimated value of the tax exemptions requested.
f. The extent to which the proposed Project will provide needed services and/or revenues to Affected Tax Jurisdictions.
g. Other factors outlined in Section 874(4)(a) of the Act.
2. If the Agency is going to deviate from any provision of the UTEP, the Agency shall adopt a resolution that:
a. Identifies the deviation provided.
b. Identifies the reasons for the deviation.
c. Identifies such terms and conditions as the Agency shall deem just and proper.
IDA DISCUSSION: Jim Mraz reviewed all of the information on the Agenda. Mike Fitzgerald asked what are the types of defaults that could occur? Kara Lais stated that a default could consist of not making a PILOT payment, not creating the number of new jobs or no longer operating the facility. Dave D’Amore asked if there was default, during the 2-year time period that IIP would have to find another company, would they be making full property tax payments? Kara Lais stated, “Yes.” She stated they would be paying full taxes on both the land and improvements on the property.
Mike Fitzgerald asked what the time to cure is? Kara Lais stated 30 days.
Jim Mraz reviewed the three (3) stipulations that IIP requested be incorporated into the Lease/PILOT. He stated these three (3) stipulations would represent deviations to the IDA’s UTEP. He stated that the UTEP authorizes the IDA Board to make deviations to the policy. The policy also states that if the IDA is going to deviate from the policy, the Board must adopt a resolution identifying the deviations provided, the reasons for the deviation and identify such terms and conditions that the Board shall deem just and proper. Jim Mraz then distributed a resolution that Kara had drafted. This draft resolution would approve the three (3) deviations requested by IIP. Kara Lais reviewed the entire resolution with the IDA Board. She stated the resolution starts with a history of the project and reciting that the Agency closed in July 2021 on an Agent Agreement relative to the sales tax authorizations. The resolution then references an updated Project Application that Vireo has submitted. She reviewed the updated Project Application’s terms with the IDA Board. She stated one change in their updated Project Application from the original is the number of new jobs Vireo is stating it will create. The original Application stated 180 new jobs and 10 part-time. The revised Application states there are 134 new full-time jobs and 3 part-time will be created. She stated that the reason cited by Vireo for the change in the number of new jobs deals with the Cannabis Regulations that have been published by the NYS Office of Cannabis Management, as well as technology efficiencies that are being pursued by Vireo in the production processing of cannabis that would require fewer people working at the facility. Kara Lais asked if there were any further questions? There were none.
IDA ACTION:

G. Labor Market Analysis Update:
- Report Components:
The report is organized into four (4) components:
- Key Findings.
- Employer Survey.
- Fulton County Region Economic Profile.
- SWOT Analysis.
2. Employer Surveyor:
Some of the key findings from the Employer Survey were:
· Based upon feedback received, the Fulton County Region Labor Market Area was defined as the area within a 45-minute drive.
· Most new hire recruitment is focused on the local region or within an hour’s drive.
· Technical skills in all fields are the most sought-after need by employers.
· The majority of workers are not ready to work and require training.
· Business training is desired on-site, but awareness of public off-site opportunities seems limited.
· None of the 19 respondents utilize FMCC or HFM-BOCES for training.
· Online recruiting is the method of choice, and Indeed is the industry leader according to responders.
· New hires are more traditionally driven for good pay and benefits rather than social benefit-oriented objectives.
· Job turnover for low-skill and non-specifically trained individuals is high due to lower wage levels and lack of available transportation in the area.
· Competition for new hires exists throughout upstate NY markets.
· The area is considered by many as a good place to work, but impacted by competition, lower equivalent pay rates, adequate transportation opportunities and governmental regulations.
3. Fulton County Region Economic Profile:
· DCG Corplan uses a unique methodology for organizing Demographics, Economics, and Market Access into quantifiable categories called “Econographics.” Econographics uses a comprehensive market profiling where indices are developed from NYS benchmarking. When the Fulton County Region Labor Market Area (LMA) meets or exceeds a NYS benchmark value, it creates an Advantage.
· This Analysis identified key Advantages the Fulton County Region LMA has over New York State’s mean including:
– Well educated workforce.
– Active labor force.
– Good worker mobility.
– Affordable living costs.
– Good local health care opportunities.
– Outward-focused economic climate.
– Attractive service wage patterns.
– Real estate and electric utility affordability.
– Modest per capita retail spending.
– Efficient airport accessibility.
4. SWOT Analysis:
· DCG Corplan conducted an analysis to identify the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) of the Fulton County Region LMA.
· DCG then compared the Fulton County LMA against other regions in New York State.
· Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) were used for data collection and analysis.
· Twelve (12) competitive upstate New York MSAs were identified:
– Albany MSA (Albany, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie Counties)
– Binghamton MSA (Broome, Tioga Counties)
– Buffalo MSA (Erie, Niagara Counties)
– Elmira MSA (Chemung County)
– Glens Falls MSA (Warren, Washington Counties)
– Ithaca MSA (Tomkins County)
– Kingston MSA (Ulster County)
– Poughkeepsie MSA (Dutchess, Orange Counties)
– Rochester MSA (Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Wayne, Yates Counties)
– Syracuse MSA (Madison, Onondaga, Oswego Counties)
– Utica-Rome MSA (Herkimer, Oneida Counties)
– Watertown MSA (Jefferson County)
· The SWOT Analysis identified the following Strengths for the Fulton County Region LMA as compared to the other 12 Upstate regions:
√ Well educated workforce
√ Good east-west highway transportation
√ Outstanding recreational amenities
√ Active labor force
√ Good worker mobility
√ Efficient airport accessibility
√ Good working environment
√ Available job-training opportunities
· The SWOT Analysis identified the following Opportunities for the Fulton County Region LMA as compared to the other 12 Upstate regions:
√ Stable population
√ Available working aged individuals
√ Fairly diverse racial makeup
√ Plentiful female labor opportunities
√ Minimal language barriers
√ More labor potential per household
√ Good access to health care
√ Good leisure activities options
√ Attractive electric power rates
√ Good access to US markets
- The SWOT Analysis identified the following Threats for the Fulton County LMA as compared to the other 12 Upstate regions:
√ Somewhat older labor force
√ Moderate affordable living costs
√ Moderate production labor costs
√ Moderate real estate costs
√ Over-dependence on service-oriented industries
√ Mostly localized business focus
√ High turnover among new hires
√ Training required for all new hires
√ Competition for labor
√ Restriction governmental regulations
√ Lack of training opportunity awareness
- The SWOT Analysis identified the following Weaknesses for the Fulton County Region LMA as compared to the 12 Upstate regions:
√ Rising crime rates
√ High production industry wages
√ High service industry wages
√ High retail spending per capita
√ Lack of mass transit opportunities
√ Lack of class “A” office development
· DCG Corplan’s SWOT Analysis concluded by recommending the following strategies be pursued:
Strength-Opportunities Strategies (S-O)
– Market the Region as alternative to either Albany or Utica markets, citing time to markets and labor draw.
– Target specific industries that are prevalent in both lateral markets but are not currently present in the Fulton County Region LMA that can take advantage of available knowledge workers.
– Foster population growth and diversity with focus on marketing to “Gen-Xers”, urbanites, or other transplants seeking an outdoor recreation-oriented located to raise families.
Weaknesses-Opportunities Strategies
– Investigate commuter bus routes expansion to allow for rush hour mass transit commutes to Albany and Utica, with north-south routing throughout Fulton County Region LMA.
– Promote local entrepreneurial activity in new product development with training matches by local institutions to provide job-ready applicants in manufacturing industries.
– Develop affordable housing options close to work centers to attract new labor to the region.
Strengths-Threats Strategies (S-T)
– Dedicated efforts should be coordinated with academia to attract and graduate more “knowledge workers” to the area and, if necessary, to incentivize company retention that employ larger numbers of these workers.
– Take advantage of training opportunities to raise level of entry-level worker readiness for new employers.
– Sustainability of new company attraction will depend on continued monitoring of and adjustments to operational costs by local building owners, suppliers, and vendors to improve the Fulton County Region’s affordability.
– Meeting or exceeding the market offerings of other competitive areas, especially in the area of incentives will be of crucial importance. Judicious implementation of available NY State incentives should be considered as other areas will also be competing for these programs. PILOT or other property tax incentives for new investment should be considered to reduce operating costs.
Weaknesses-Threats Strategies (W-T)
– Proactive marketing efforts to market the Fulton County Region’s specific location advantages as distinct and unique from other regions of New York State and the Northeast for use in business attraction. As a gateway location to the Adirondack Park, the Region’s many recreational and quality of life amenities are important elements in the marketing strategy.
– Follow “best practices” by other economic development organizations that market business and recreational potential together under one umbrella – follow this lead for the Fulton County Region.
– Promote the availability of technical workers that can provide technology support in several industries to the lateral markets of Albany and Utica from a centrally located base will enliven the local job market.
– Encourage new project development studies for cultural and recreational amenities, as well as healthcare facilities can be beneficial in combating image of complacence with current image perception by outsiders.
– Proactive efforts to attract higher earning workers to the Region by improving the housing stock among other investments will be necessary to counteract the “Blue Collar” perception of the area.
– Rising crime rates in parts of Albany and Schenectady are detrimental to attracting new families to the area. Promotion of successful instances of community policing and other interdictions designed to mitigate crime perception is vital.
– Concentrated outreach to local employers to raise awareness of training opportunities available from public academic institutions.
IDA DISCUSSION: Jim Mraz reviewed the information on the Agenda. He stated the strategies recommended by DCG Corplan represent potential work tasks that the IDA may want to undertake. He stated some of these strategies could represent goals for the IDA Board to adopt for 2023. He stated that, at the Annual Meeting to be held in January 2023, the Agenda will include a review of the IDA’s 2022 goals and how well they were addressed. He stated he will then ask IDA Board members to identify potential goals for 2023. He asked that consideration be given to these recommendations submitted by DCG Corplan as potential goals for the IDA to consider for 2023.
Joe Semione asked if the strategies recommended in the original report done in 2016 have been compared to the strategies contained in this 2022 report? Jim Mraz stated that he will have those comparisons available for review at the January Board meeting.
