Market Street Jeffersonville, Indiana 47130 www.iacserv.com George T. Burch, President (Jeffersonville Resident) This office is the Corporate Headquarters for 5 other locations in Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio. The Corporation now has 72 employees and would expect this expansion to hire 30 to 35 more employees at corporate over a 5 year period. Current minimum wage is $14.00 per hour but this expansion will involve persons in excess of $50,000 per year with some in excess of $100,000. IAC bought the old building of Bob Swenson's business and Darling Boat Fabrication being located next door to Kempf Heating & Cooling. IAC also purchased additional ground and buildings from Van Gilder Heating & Cooling (of which they have demoed these structures). There is one rental house facing Fulton Street that can be purchased and also demolish to complete this package proposed. The proposed expansion to be approximately 20,000 SF with demolition of the Darling Boat Fabrication Building and a portion of the Swenson Building and addition and remodel of portions of the existing Swenson Building. There will also be enclosed carport type building to house company vehicles and trailers and an enclosed fenced compound. The new steel metal building will include crane rail system, state of the art paint booth for large commercial air compressor rebuilding. The estimated eve height at this point maybe 14 feet to 16 feet. The existing Swenson building will house more conference rooms, newer restrooms and part storage and shipping. IAC is requesting if Zoning is currently proper for this expansion and if not what will be required from the Plan Commission and BZA as well as the City Council to move this project forward quickly. Also the 2 alleys behind the project, IAC would like to vacate the portion directly behind and provide a portion of their property to the west to reconnect the 2 alleys. Finally with the $800,000 to $1,000,000 estimated construction and improvements, additional jobs and new equipment IAC would like to submit for tax abatement on the project. Time line for the project is immediate once all approvals are met as quickly as possible. If the City feels this is a valid project for the request and approval so we can proceed with preliminary design to present to all parties. The biggest delay is the Metal Building Design and order placement. This will be a design/build project with The Estopinal Group and K M Stemler Corporation. The goal is to have a structure up by December 2013. Respectively submitted, J.
