He advised that they 1 are also asking for sales and use tax benefits, mortgage recording tax benefits and an extension of the existing PILOT agreement. The resolution in front of them has a description of the proposed project and authorizes a public hearing to be held in September. Dean Bodnar asked if we could have an overview of the project that will be undertaken in Flanigan Square. Kevin Bette advised that we have a tenant with over 100 employees that would like to move onto the fifth floor of the building. He advised that repairs are needed to the systems of the space they will be occupying. Mr. Bette noted that we have large foot print space that can bring in corporations. He advised that there are very few places within the city that can accommodate these types of businesses. He would like to bring them back to this area. Mr. Bette noted that all of the projects are related to each other and are working to bring back jobs to Troy and raise the value of the neighborhoods. Ms. Urzan agreed that connections are important. Mr. Doherty spoke about City Hall and its lease. He stated that if we were here in the middle of all of the development, it could be very exciting and asked if it is important to the development process. Mr. Bette advised that at the time it was beneficial for both of us. The board agreed that being in this space seems cost effective for the city. There were no other questions from the board members. (See attached Resolution 08/16 #2) Susan Farrell made a motion to approve the initial project resolution for 547 River Street, LLC. Hon. Dean Bodnar seconded the motion, motion carried. V. Garnet Housing Amendment Mr. Miller explained that the applicant would like to decrease the number of properties in their agreement from 26 to 22. The four properties will be transferred to new owners; back on the tax rolls. Mr. Bodnar asked who the new owners will be. Mr. Buell advised that they will be selling three of the properties to Chris Cowell and one to Melinda Lawrence. Ms. Lawrence will be rehabbing the property and living there. She will be moving from Albany. Mr. Buell advised that they will have some connection to the new owners. He added that they will also be adding nine properties that will stay on the tax rolls. Mr. Doherty asked if the values appreciate over time, will he consider selling them. Mr. Buell advised yes, he is interested in the long term improvement of both the City of Troy and RPI. Mr. Bodnar asked about the long term plan and commitment to the PILOT currently in place. Mr. Buell advised that he has a strong commitment. Mr. Miller noted that it is rare to have a PILOT on an assemblage of properties. Ms. Urzan asked if the nine properties are close to the other properties and will it slow down the finish dates. Mr. Buell advised the nine new properties require no rehab and they will be close to the other properties. (See attached Resolution 08/16 #3) Tina Urzan made a motion to approve the amendment to the PILOT for Garnett Housing, LLC. Lou Anthony seconded the motion, motion carried. VI. Dino BBQ Amendment Mr. Miller spoke about recent conversations we have had with Dinosaur BBQ about their existing PILOT agreement; from payment dates to the PILOT schedule. He advised that some updates needed to be made as a result of the 2 revaluation that was done in Troy a few years ago. The PILOT agreement originally set up was based on a value that has since changed. This is one of the items that will need to be reconciled. Mr. Miller added that the company has also gone through the process of refinancing its real estate and having it leased back to them. The Troy location has not gone through this process due to the PILOT agreement in place. He explained that we would still keep the agreement in place with Dinosaur Restaurant, LLC, but would deal directly with the tenant. This type of agreement would be similar to the project we did with Bombers. Instead of having a relationship with the land owner and the building owner, they would transition from being the owner to the master tenant. The IDA transaction would stay with Dinosaur Restaurants, LLC but they would be the master tenant, not the landlord. Mr. Miller advised after much discussion, it was decided to restructure the current PILOT. Mr. Bodnar asked for clarification on whether or not their PILOT payments would change due to the revaluation process. Mr. Miller advised that there will be an amendment to Schedule A to reflect the current changes. He spoke about the history of the tax issues that have occurred at that site before Dinosaur Restaurant, LLC and the series of events that got them to the place of setting up the PILOT. Mr. Miller advised that the most recent PILOT bill that went out was the first year that a portion of the payment was going to be based on the base valuation; this is what caused the question. It Mr. Doherty asked when the PILOT ends. Mr. Miller advised about 14 years remaining. The chairman thanked CFO for Hire’s diligent work. Hon. Dean Bodnar made a motion to approve the Authorizing Resolution to restructure and amend the current PILOT for Dinosaur Restaurant, LLC. Tina Urzan seconded the motion, motion carried. VII. Financials Jim Lozano spoke to the board members about the current balance sheet. He advised that there is $630,000 in assets versus $12.00 in liabilities. He noted that is a good balance sheet. The cash shows a negative amount due to timing issues between cutting the checks and getting them signed. He advised that the accounts receivable is negative because some of the PILOTs were paid early. Mr. Lozano advised that the P&L report showed just under $85,000 in surplus. We had $100,000 in revenue due to three administrative fees collected. He advised nothing else of note occurred this month. Sue Farrell made a motion to accept the financials as presented. Hon. Bob Doherty seconded the motion, motion carried. VIII. Adjournment The board welcomed Steven Strichman, Planning Commissioner, as a new board member. With no other items to discuss, the IDA portion of the meeting was adjourned at 11:00 a.m. Lou Anthony made a motion to adjourn the IDA meeting. Tina Urzan seconded the motion, motion carried. 3 PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA TROY INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY FIVE ONE FIVE RIVER ST., LLC AUGUST 19, 2016 AT 10:00 A.M.
