Exhibit A
The Project
An existing property has been identified for the corporate headquarters and production assembly of C M Design, LLC The property address is 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx.
The cost of engineering consulting, renovating and improving the building is estimated to cost $500,000. Most of the cost will be spent on the interior structure, production layout and landscaping improvements. All costs will be expended to local consultants and contractors. Additionally, another $500,000 would be necessary for production equipment and tooling to assemble up to 750 units annually.
The project would bring a world leading motorcycle company to New Orleans. The anticipated benefits would be to improve community development in and around Toulouse Street by attracting other business as well as internal jobs, external jobs with local vendors, tourism, and state and local tax revenue.
Once the project is realized and the company meets the projected output, the benefits to the City are exponential:
· Projected headcount of 50 employees;
· Projected annual purchasing from local vendors of $4.2;
· Projected annual tourism from visitors $125,000;
· Projected spend on local public relation, film and media of $576,000;
· Projected spend on local legal and professional services of $184,026.
See enclosed 4 year proforma for additional information.
The project contemplates major development costs and funds that are not currently available. The Company is seeking assistance for the City to provide funding for the building improvements and equipment. The Company anticipates the relocation cost to be $125,000 for moving expenses and $100,000 for temporary shutdown (30 days). The Company is able to absorb the costs if no assistance is loaned.
