Council Auditor’s Office

Bill 2018-313

The District

 

Background Information:

Elements Development of Jacksonville, LLC (Developer) has the option to purchase approximately 30 acres of land on a parcel known as the JEA Southside Generation Parcel at a price of $18,600,000. The Developer intends to develop a mixed use master planned development at an estimated cost of $280,000,000 for Vertical Improvements which includes:

-          950 Residential Units

-          147 Hotel Rooms

-          200,000 square feet of Class A Office Space

-          134,600 square feet of Retail Space

-          125 Marina Slips

The City will be conveyed (either through deed or easements as determined by DIA) approximately 4.25 acres of land for parks and public open spaces (City Parcels). The public open spaces include the Riverwalk extension, bulkhead and riverfront park, an easement interest in the surrounding trail, boardwalk, public parking spaces (dedicated to public use and not part of the CRA Infrastructure Improvements budget), the Prudential Drive expansion, traffic circle, Broadcast Place and Riverplace Drive which are known as the CRA Infrastructure Improvements.

 

As calculated by the DIA, the ROI calculation for the proposed development equals 1.39. The calculation includes the ad valorem taxes generated based on approximately $215 Million for an estimated assessed value of the Vertical Improvements, payroll taxes induced by the hotel, retail and office space, and sales and bed taxes generated by the hotel, for a period of 25 years, which is then divided by the maximum REV Grant authorized of $56,025,000. Once the development is fully constructed, DIA estimates that approximately $2.4 Million in ad valorem taxes will be generated each year before the REV grant is paid.

 

Deal Structure:

One component of the overall improvements to be undertaken are the CDD Infrastructure Improvements, which are roadways, electrical, water and sewer utilities and other horizontal improvements, with an estimated budget of $24,776,775. The CDD Infrastructure Improvements will benefit the development parcels. The CDD, which will be created by the developer, will issue bonds to pay for the CDD Infrastructure Improvements. As part of the Redevelopment Agreement, the DIA will make a Recaptured Enhanced Value Grant (REV Grant) to the CDD in an amount not to exceed the lesser of $56,025,000 or the sum of the principal, interests and other costs on the CDD bonds. The REV Grant will commence when a certificate of occupancy is issued for any component of the Vertical Improvements that have a construction value in excess of $2,000,000 and are included on the City’s tax rolls at full assessed value.

-          The REV Grant is 75% of Annual Project Revenues for 20 years, but no later than December 31, 2040.

 

The other component of the deal is the CRA Infrastructure Improvements with a maximum estimated construction budget of $26,410,000. The CDD will oversee the design, engineering, permitting and construction of the CRA Infrastructure Improvements. The maximum amount the City will disburse to the CDD for construction of the improvements will be $23,000,000, with any cost overruns the responsibility of the Developer and CDD. The remaining balance will be other direct costs of the DIA for its management of the CRA Infrastructure Improvements which includes the hiring of a Construction Inspector.

 

Points to Consider:

1.       REV Grant is based on Vertical Improvements occurring and taxes being paid. The City is not providing any funding up front for the Vertical Improvements.

2.       DIA will have an owner’s rep ensuring CRA Infrastructure Improvements are being completed before DIA pays the CDD. Again, the City is not providing any funding up front for CRA Infrastructure Improvements.

3.       Numerous discussions have taken place regarding the exclusion/inclusion of the disbursements for the CRA Infrastructure Improvements in the ROI calculation. Given that this project has been a component of the CRA BID plan for many years and is not a direct incentive to the Vertical Improvements the DIA ROI calculation excluded the disbursement of $23 Million for the infrastructure. Regardless of this exclusion, the project meets many of the additional considerations of the Public Investment Policy.

4.       There is not a provision to reduce the REV Grant if the developer goes into default or if the scope of the project is significantly reduced. Most REV Grants include a provision to reduce the REV Grant percentage if a certain amount of Capital Investment is not completed by a date certain. Per DIA, the provision to reduce the REV Grant percentage was not included in the Redevelopment Agreement since it is anticipated that proceeds of the REV Grant will be part of the CDD pledge to its bondholders for debt service payment.

 

Concerns to Consider:

1.       The City could have some environmental risk associated with taking possession (whether through conveyance by deed or easement) of the City Parcels, particularly if the Developer defaults, as the Florida Department of Environmental Protection may look to any party in the chain of title in the event of a release of Hazardous Materials.

2.       If during construction of the CRA Infrastructure Improvements the Developer/CDD goes into default, while the performance bonds will ensure that the CRA Infrastructure Improvements are completed at the contract value (between the Developer/CDD and contractor), the City/DIA could be responsible for cost overruns in excess of the $23 Million if the Developer/CDD is incapable of paying for the cost overruns. The City/DIA could still seek recovery of these cost overruns from the Developer/CDD as they are contractually obligated to cover cost overruns.
