Butler County Integrated Development Budget Project January 8-9, 2013 By Don Iannone Sourcing Office
IDB Project work steps • Develop a pilot IDB for Butler County stakeholders. • Test IDB on five (5) major Butler County development projects. • Review project testing results and gain stakeholder feedback. • Prepare strategy with stakeholders for implementing the IDB approach in Butler County. • Assess pros and cons of IDB approach and determine feasibility. • Share results with Butler County stakeholders, State of Ohio, and other interested parties (including County Commissioners Association of Ohio [CCAO]). • Prepare final project report and deliver to Butler County stakeholders and State of Ohio LGIF.
Integrated development budget: major elements ECD = Economic and Community Development
Ecd spending: Return on investment, cost savings, impact Return on Investment and Impact Tomorrow (Future Metrics) Today (Current Metrics)
Future Policy and strategy shifts • Economic asset management perspective • Integrated view of overall economic base • Positive-sum and interconnected view of ECD • Strategies enhancing overall/underlying competitiveness • Higher level of collaboration and joint investment • Focus on quality • Focus on increasing return on investment • Focus on cost-savings and future use of those savings • Fiscal impact of development (costs and benefits and net impact in short and longer terms) • New criteria guiding development efforts and budgets • Adoption of policies and strategies that create the greatest benefit
Top idb focus areasFrom 12-11-12 Meeting • Strong Interest by Group: • Transportation Improvement District (TID) projects and other physical infrastructure to support development. • Technology (fiber/broadband). • Workforce development investments (all types) • Land bank (perhaps) • Good Interest in by Group in Improving ROI on Existing ECD programs: • By all entities (County, Port, cities, villages, townships, workforce agencies, higher education workforce initiatives, use of state and Federal funds, community foundation dollars, others) • Limited to No Support: • New shared funding pools (Unless the objections and problems can be overcome)
Other key ideasfrom 12-11-12 meeting • Integrated development budget – move to integrated development services. • Expand group to include others • Begin data collection (web survey): Update today • Metrics discussion • Balancing project-by-project collaboration with more systemic collaboration. • Demonstrate economic interdependence of communities in the county and the county and port with communities. • Cost-benefit analysis (quantitative and qualitative variables and tangibles and intangibles). • Learn from others’ success. • Future funding for Butler County (LGIF, foundations, other sources)
