Amendments to Chairman Young read aloud the amendments to the
the Agenda agenda. There were i�Rl�ll�3NN�QV'J�68 iQif�is .
Amendment to Commissioner Tuttle explained that at this time the
Community
Board will be considering an amendment to the
Block Grant
Community Development Block Grant Program. It was
Application
submitted to the state for the purpose of establishing
(action item)
a revolving loan fund for reloaning the funds to local
businesses. The original block grant application
included three pre -identified businesses; Acu-Edge,
Inc. in Redmond, Oregon Equipment, and Bend Research.
Commissioner Tuttle explained that shortly after the
approval of these applications by the State, Oregon
Equipment ceased operations and Bend Research decided
not to continue its participation in the grant. After
discussing this with Intergovernmental Relations
Division, it was determined that if the County could
find businesses that created the same number of jobs,
used the same financial leverage, had outside
committments for financing and would follow the
conditions of the original grant, substitutions could
be made of the original grant. Commissioner Tuttle
continued that he has been working with Mike Sullivan
of the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council and
Jim Curtis of Oregon Economic Development to find
businesses that comply with these criteria.
Mike Sullivan, Central Oregon Intergovernmental
Council, explained that the two businesses selected
are Morelock Wood Products and D & S Hydraulics of
Bend. The directive of the State Intergovernmental
Relations Division was that the amended package need
to either meet or exceed the performance of the
original package. The original package proposed a
total of 62 jobs and the new package creates a total
of 73 jobs. Originally each job had a cost of
approximately $4,800 which has now lowered to $4,100.
The leverage (amount of private money coming in to
match the loan from the State) originally was $894,500
and now is $746,500. Mr. Sullivan explained that the
sum of leverage, the number of jobs created, and the
cost per job adds up to this package performing better
than the original package. Acu-Edge will create 20
jobs as compared to the original estimate of 18;
Morelock Wood Products will create 45 jobs and major
expansion; D & S Hydraulics is creating 8 jobs in a
building program that is going to provide them with a
new and more efficient facility.
