INTRODUCTION
The following fiscal plan (the "Fiscal Plan") is for the proposed annexation of the area consisting of parcels
within and to the north, east and west of the existing city limits (the "Annexation Area"). The Annexation
Area is adjacent to the City of Jeffersonville (the "City"). The purpose of this document is to comply with
Indiana Code 36-4-3-13 (d). The requirements of the code mandate the development and adoption of a written
fiscal plan and the establishment of a definite policy by resolution of the City CounciL The Indiana Code
states that this fiscal plan must include and provide:
1) The cost estimates of planned services to be furnished to the territoIY to be annexed. The plan
must present itemized estimated costs for each municipal department or agency;
2) The method or methods of financing the planned services. The plan must explain how specific
and detailed expenses will be funded and must indicate the taxes, grants and other funding to
be used;
3) The plan for the organization and extension of services. The plan must detail the specific
services that will be provided and the dates the services will begin;
4) That planned services of a non-capital nature, including police protection, fire protection,
street and road maintenance, and other non-capital services normally provided within the
corporate boundaries will be provided within one (1) year after the effective date of
annexation, and that they will be provided in a manner equivalent in standard and scope to
those non-capital services provided in areas within the corporate boundaries regardless of
similar topography, patterns ofland use, and population density; and
5) That services of a capital improvement nature, including street construction, street lighting,
sewer facilities, water facilities, and stormwater drainage facilities, will be provided to the
annexed territoIY within three (3) years after the effective date of the annexation in the same
manner as those services are provided to areas within the corporate boundaries, regardless of
similar topography, patterns of land use, and population density, and in a manner consistent
with federal, state, and local laws, procedures, and planning criteria.
This Fiscal Plan may include additional materials in connection with the foregoing. This Fiscal Plan was
developed through the cooperative efforts of the City's various administrative offices, the City's financial
advisors, Umbaugh, and Blankenbeker & Son Land Surveyors Inc., P. C. This fiscal plan is the result of an
analysis of the proposed annexation area.
For the reasons described in the balance of the Fiscal Plan, the annexation meets the statutoIY requirements
set forth in Indiana Code 36-4-3-13. The Annexation Area is contiguous to the City, the Annexation Area is
needed and can be used by the municipality for its development in the reasonably near future, and there is a
written Fiscal Plan, herein provided, that has been approved by the City Council.

SECTION I
AREA DESCRIPTION
A. Location. Area Size and Conti2Uitv
The proposed Annexation Area is located within and on the north, east and west sides of the existing
corporate boundaries of the City. A map of the area has been included and is shown in Appendixll.
The area is approximately 7,179 acres. The perimeter boundary of the Annexation Area totals
239,352 lineal feet, of which approximately 167,507 lineal feet is contiguous to the existing City
boundaries. Thus, 70% of the boundary of the total Annexation Area is contiguous with the current
boundaries of the City. Contiguity broken down by individual area is: A - 100%, B - 100%, C-
79%, D - 38%,
E - 36%, and F - 99.8%.
B. Current Land Use
The majority of the Annexation Area consists of residential buildings. Other current or permitted uses
of the land are commercial, industrial and agricultural.
C. Current Population
The current population of the Annexation Area is estimated at 8,967. This figure was arrived at by
multiplying the number of households in the annexation area by the persons per household figure in
the 2000 Census for Clark County. The number of households in the annexation area is estimated
based on the number of parcels in the area that have residential improvements.
Households 3,660
Population per Household x 2.45
Estimated Population 8 967
D. Current Zonin2
The Annexation Area is currently under the jurisdiction of the Clark County Plan Commission. The
Annexation Area consists of one or more of the following zoning districts: Cl :Conservancy Zone,
Al : Agricultural Zone, RS:Suburban One-Family Residence Zone, Rl : One-Family Residence Zone,
R2:Limited Multi-Family Residence Zone, R3 :Multi-Family Residence Zone, B 1 :Limited Business
Zone, B2:Roadside Business Zone, B3:General Business Zone, Ml:General Industrial Zone,
M2:Heavy Industrial, and M3:Hazardous Waste Disposal.
The City of Jeffersonville Department of Planning and Zoning will assume the responsibility for
planning and zoning as a result of the proposed annexation. Certain annexed parcels in this area are
expected to be rezoned to be compatible with the City's current zoning classifications. An analysis is
being conducted by a Professional Land Planner, Jim Urban with Land Design and Development, to
determine if there are any exceptions, which will be identified in the annexation ordinance.

E. Real Property Assessed Valuation
The net assessed valuation for land and improvements in the Annexation Area is $408,561,027. This
represents the assessed value as of March 1, 2005 for taxes payable 2006.

City Court, Parks and Recreation Department, and the Department of Redevelopment The costs of
these services are not directly related to the size and population of the Annexation Area initially;

11
SECTION VI
FISCAL IMPACT
As a result of this annexation, the assessed value for the City will increase by $408,561,027, to
$1,385,007,917. This represents an increase of approximately 42%. Property tax controls instituted by the
2003 Indiana General Assembly limit the City to a property tax increase equal to the six-year average non-
farm income (3.9% for 2006 budget year) annually for most fimds. The net impact of increasing the City's
assessed value will result in additional property tax revenues to the City, and may assist in stabilizing or
lowering property tax rates for City residents.
Annexation Area residents will not pay property taxes to the City until 2008 payable 2009. However, the City
will begin providing non-capital municipal services to the property owners on midnight of 12/31/08, with the
exception of planning and zoning, which will be provided immediately following the effective date of
annexation.
It is anticipated that there will be additional costs to the City as a result of the annexation. A majority of the
costs are related to the Police Department, Fire Department, Sewer Department, and Street and Sanitation
Department. The causes of the anticipated increased costs are discussed above, and the effects of the costs are
demonstrated in Appendix I - Estimated Assessed Value and Tax Rate Impact.
Detailed revenue projections were not included in this Fiscal Plan because of the property tax controls. The
majority of property taxes paid within the Annexation Area do not represent new revenues, but represent the
portion of the City's levy which is applicable to the Annexation Area taxpayers. Additional state revenues
based on population will not be adjusted until the next census. The cost of a special census to modify the
portion the City would receive is cost prohibitive and is not being contemplated by the City at this time.
12
SECTION vn
ASSUMED INDEBTEDNESS
As required by Indiana Code 36-4-3-10, upon request of the Jeffersonville or Utica Township Trustee, the
City will assume and pay any unpaid bonds or other obligations of Jeffersonville and Utica Township existing
at the effective date of the annexation of the Annexation Area in the same ratio as the assessed valuation of
the property in the Annexation Area bears to the assessed valuation of all property in Jeffersonville or Utica
Township, as shown on the most recent assessment for taxation prior to the effective date of the annexation.
Jeffersonville and Utica Townships have no debt currently outstanding.
13
SECTION VIll
STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
The City will provide the services of a capital improvement nature related to the annexation as described in
this Fiscal Plan by midnight of 12/31/10 and services of a non-capital nature by midnight of 12/31/08 similar
to those services of a capital improvement nature and non-capital nature provided to areas within the current
corporate boundaries of the City. The City will finance the additional municipal services expenditures
through a combination of the funds mentioned above.
The Annexation Area meets the requirements ofIC 36-4-3-13 in that approximately 71 percent (71 %) of the
boundary of the Annexation Area is contiguous with the current boundaries of the City. Therefore, this area
meets the 1/4 contiguity requirement. Also, the territory sought to be annexed is needed and can be used by
the municipality for its development in the reasonably near future, therefore, the conditions ofIC 36-4-3-13
are met.
The requirements of a written fiscal and policy plan are being met for the Annexation Area, stated above, by
this document. The five (5) specific items, which must be included in the fiscal plan, are addressed in this
document and satisfy the requirements under Indiana law.
In the case of this annexation, the City has initiated annexation procedures to annex the Annexation Area as
required by IC 36-4-3 et seq. Once the Fiscal Plan has been adopted, the City will publish a public notice in
the Jeffersonville Evening News of the public hearing to be held by the Jeffersonville City Council
concerning the proposed annexation. Once that notice has been published and the written notice of the
hearing has been sent to each owner of the real property as shown on the Clark County's auditor's current tax
list, whose real property is located within the territory proposed to be annexed, all legal requirements for the
City will have been met.
