Preble County, Ohio – December 2011 Unemployment Rate

Posted on January 31, 2012 by Jeff Golden

The State of Ohio, December 2011, county by county unemployment rates are out. Preble County continues to lead all area counties and came in at the 26th highest of 88 counties. It is time for a change of leadership. Taking on taxpayer debt at Goose Creek is not the answer. Goose Creek sits behind the Pilot truckstop and the land this Preble County Commission purchased an option to buy is not even on Rt. 127. We have better options available that are closer to infrastructure, we have better areas than Goose Creek. It is time the Preble County Commissioners stopped waging war on taxpayers and driving off companies. The money left over from the one mill raising of the conveyance fee should go to the creation of a revolving loan fund. The raising of the Preble County Landfill assessment will be showing up on your property taxes. Ask yourself this; Does the need for a 44% increase speak to good financial management of the local economy? Of course not and the tipping fee increase charged to companies like Rumpke will have them raising your trash bill as well.

California Redevelopment Case and Goose Creek – Time to Replace the Preble County Commissioners Responsible

Posted on January 27, 2012 by Jeff Golden

I'd like to thank Barb for forwarding this information to me. The use of a TIF (tax-increment financing) has been mentioned for possible use at Goose Creek Crossing. The involvement of a Public-Private Partnership is also being used with the Preble County Development Partnership having been mentioned as reviewing the marketing for the JRS application. There is no way the area pictured below is the best area for development in Preble County. The land the Preble County Commissioners hold an option to buy on is not even on Rt. 127. Many of you are familiar with the heavy and often backed up truck traffic using Hazelwood Drive as an entrance to the truck stop. Would you want to play dodgem with truck traffic to get into the area? Do you as tax payers want to be obligated to pick up the tab for this incompetent vanity game at the public expense?

We can only hope that this is one California trend that spreads east quickly. Ohio has lost five congressional seats in thirty years in large part because local officials justify this type of development under the claim everyone else is doing it. It unnaturally impacts local property values, impacts other local areas with traffic flow problems and in the end the taxpayer is often expected pick up the tab. Goose Creek is a Preble County Commission folly and it needs to be stopped.

When Will California Redevelopment Agencies Start Defaulting?

Public officials are scrambling in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision in California Redevelopment Agency vs. Matosantos to react to their loss of tax-increment financed redevelopment, which served as their piggy-bank under the Community Redevelopment Law for the past 65 years. The California State Legislature and their crony capitalist allies will desperately try to resurrect new tax and economic incentives to reclaim their ability to interfere in the California real estate markets. But barring any last minute emergency legislation, many redevelopment agencies will go into financial distress and be forced to hammer-sale huge amounts of depressed California real estate to avoid default.

Redevelopment agencies have incurred debt to finance “improvements” to private properties in their districts. The primary source financing has been $31 billion of tax-allocation bonds. These bonds were issued to finance property improvements and are to be repaid from hoped for increases from property tax collection if the improvements increase the assessed valuation of the properties. Local cities and counties often provide the start-up capital before bonds are issued.

Given the speculative nature of real estate development, prospectus for redevelopment bonds were loaded with risk factors; including decline in the value of real estate, failure of the project to generate increased tax increment, and changes in California state law. Given that local cities and counties generally dominate and control the redevelopment districts, local politicians also appear to substantial liability regarding the activities of the districts. Unfortunately, all three risk factors identified in the prospectus have now occurred.

According to Seth Merewitz, Municipal & Redevelopment Law partner at Best Best & Krieger:

“If redevelopment is not reinstated in some fashion by the legislature, then the successor agencies will be charged with meeting enforceable obligations entered into by the redevelopment agency as well as performing many other wind down functions. Moreover, the successor agencies will begin the process of selling off all of the commercial, industrial, residential and even vacant land assets currently held by redevelopment agencies across California. This inventory of property for sale throughout the state will present vast opportunities for investors to pick up real estate assets and trigger future economic development or add more real estate inventory to a flooded and depressed market.”

Many redevelopment districts now fantasize they can enter into Public-Private Partnerships to maintain their unfinished projects. The concept is that the skills and assets of public and private sector can be shared to deliver facilities for the use of the general public. Unfortunately, crony developers usually acquired properties in redevelopment districts with small down payments and relied on the district to sell unsecured tax-free bonds at interest rates of 4-5% to finance 100% of their property improvements. If the projects succeed, developers made huge profits and the bondholders got paid in full. But if projects failed, developers simply turned the properties over to their secured lender, thus leaving the unsecured bondholders and the district at huge risk.

Once upon a time, banks were willing to take the huge risks in financing development “deals”, but those days are over! The few banks still willing to finance commercial developments demand the property owner have 55% equity , pay 12% interest rates, plus 3-5% points in fees.

State Controller’s office stated the Supreme Court’s decision will generate $1 billion in additional taxes in the next budget year and increasing amounts in subsequent years. Redevelopment agencies have on average leveraged $1 in tax increment revenue into $18 of indebtedness. Redevelopment agencies owe $31 billion in bond debt and another $9 billion directly to the cities and counties that sponsored the districts. Consequently, with the loss of $1 billion in property tax revenue, the state-wide leverage of redevelopment agencies just doubled.

Panic of default is already beginning to build for many redevelopment agencies. Their local city and county sponsors are probably trying to incentivize developers to rescue “orphaned projects” with expedited permit processing, pre-entitled land, and major increases in density. But with bond payments due every six months, hammer-sale property liquidations may soon begin.

Over $108,000 in Excess Funds Raised By One Mill Conveyance Tax – Future of Landfill Discussed

Posted on January 21, 2012 by Jeff Golden

Wednesday had the only meeting of the Commissioners this week.

File 3 had a conference call with Dr. Wright of OSU Extension about the hiring process for a 4H administrator in the county. This being an election year for two commissioners the amount the county will spend is up but still woefully short when the impact of agriculture on this county is considered.

File 5 has the noting of receipt of court decision and entry on the continuing lawsuit, Preble Co. Pork Festival vs. Preble Co. Agricultural Society. Unless something has changed, the Preble County Commissioners are also being sued as they hold title to the Fairgrounds for the citizens of Preble County. The parties have until March 9, 2012, to come to a settlement or a trial date will be set. As long as this has dragged on, my opinion is to expect a trial date to be set.

File 6 is the Preble County Budget Commission and Mindy Robbins weekly update. Of special interest is the new addition that started last week listing the “expenses” or money spent from the one mill conveyance fee/tax passed back in the August of 2009. It shows that $199,486.70 has been collected and $91,309 in expenses. It leaves a balance of $108,177.7 of which most should go into the creation of a revolving loan fund. The hearings on this tax and the comments made were that it was to all go toward economic development. As it stands now, it increases the amount in the general fund. The money should have been earmarked. It needs to be earmarked and spent to aid in the future economic development of the county. For reference as to what was said at the meeting prior to the passage of the tax, here are two audio files with comments:

File 14A Commissioner Stonecash

File 14B Commissioner Wesler

If more than Goose Creek is a priority, then it is time to follow through and earmark this tax and start a revolving loan fund. If that does not happen, then the housing market of Preble County would benefit by the tax being reduced.

File 7 has a short economic development update. If possible, the biodiesel project looks more iffy than it did when first mentioned. There was some apparent pride taken in the possibility of a partnership work force development campaign being used by the state. This is somewhat amusing as the only obvious jobs attributable to the Preble County Economic Development Office creation are those of the Director and her secretary. Ohio has lost five congressional seats in thirty years and my opinion is a good bit of it is attributable to leadership following other leadership over the cliff of incompetence. It may still be too early to expect much in the way of success but until there is actual job growth, using Preble as an example only benefits the resume of the director not the populace that needs jobs.

File 10 is an audio file that citizens of Preble County should pay very close attention to. It brings up the possibility of Preble County becoming part of a consolidation, statewide, of solid waste districts. Everything from possibly losing control of the Preble County Landfill to closing and/or it becoming a regional landfill and expansion were mentioned. Nothing is definite, but as described, all of it and more may be considered.
