October 14, 2011 Bolton Green Project Summary, Eight Revision October 14, 2011
Partners for Planning, a citizens task group that is exploring solutions for the contaminated Smith garage property in the center of town (715-723 Main Street), proposes that the town purchase the 8.3-acre site, clean up the contamination, and implement a redevelopment plan. Purchase of this site is a unique opportunity to control what is built at this keystone location and to leverage many benefits only available to municipalities for redevelopment projects such as this. The proposal features the creation of a Town Green and the building of market rate and affordable housing on the currently blighted site. The proposal requires an investment by the town that, unlike many town expenditures, has a direct economic benefit with few ongoing operational expenses. Because the plan involves housing that will generate property and excise taxes, the project will produce a positive cash flow by year 7 and a complete payback by year 13. Over 20 years, the project will generate a significant positive cash contribution to the town, while permanently enhancing the beauty, character, and use of the town center.
The redevelopment proposal splits the property into two areas: the front section would be kept by the town and developed as a Town Green; and the rear would be sold to a private developer to build market rate and affordable housing in scale and style complementary to the architecture of the National Register Historic District, in which it is located. The proposal to purchase the property and to include market rate and affordable housing on the site means that the town can: apply for grants available to municipalities to fund the clean up activities; protect itself from lawsuits through an agreement with the Massachusetts Attorney General; purchase subsidized insurance to cover unknowns related to clean up; accept $125,000 from the Affordable Housing Trust to support the overall project; defray costs through the sale of a portion of the property to a developer for development of housing.

The result is an attractive and functional solution that will have a positive impact on property values, contribute to tax revenue, clean up a contaminated site, and create a vibrant new center in the heart of the town. What more perfect place is there for a long-desired Town Green than in the very heart of the town? To implement this project, we propose that a Bolton Town Green Development Commission be established by the Board of Selectmen. This Commission will manage the project, including approving the design of the site, applying for grants, selecting developers and contractors, and approving expenditures in a manner similar to that of the construction of other Town projects. The total project cost to the Town is expected to be $765,000. A sum of $125,000 will be transferred from the Affordable Housing Trust and grants from MassDevelopment and the EPA will total $200,500, which results in the request to authorize borrowing up to $440,000 to fund the project. The grant assumptions have been rigorously vetted and funding agencies could provide additional grants of over $800,000, if necessary. With the addition of $440,000 of borrowing for Bolton Town Green, town debt will still decrease every year from $16.7 million in 2012 to $10.9 million in 2016. Tax revenues (property and excise taxes) received from the housing are projected to be $81,000 at occupancy and will exceed the present property taxes of $14,000. Over 20 years, this project will generate a positive cash flow of $410,000 at a Net Present Value of 3%. Tax receipts will exceed costs and the investment will have an Internal Rate of Return projected to be 16%. An average single family home assessed at $455,800 with taxes of $8,852 will experience a increased taxes of $15 per year ($73 for the first five years). The same single family home will experience a tax decrease of and average of $19 per year ($370 over 20 years). Breakeven occurs in year 2044. The FY2012 town budget will increase by approximately $1,000 and the FY2013 budget will increase by approximately $3,000. On October 12th, because of a recent change in the Municipal Relief Act of 2010, Bolton Bond Counsel advised the Selectmen that the Town must approve borrowing for total project costs. Bond Counsel said that no matter how strong the assurances by State and Federal officials that grant funds will be available for the Towns clean up costs, if the voters approve the purchase, borrowing for clean up also must be approved by
Bolton Green, Pro Forma October 14, 2011 Page 2
the voters. Warrant Article 5 has been revised, therefore, to request borrowing approval for $640,000 instead of $440,000, the figure proposed by Partners for Planning in consultation with all of the relevant Town Boards, Commissions, and Committees. A high degree of confidence exists that clean up costs will be fully covered by grants, based on conferences with key officials. Should even the full $640,000 have to be borrowed, however, the average cost per single family home would increase from an average of $15 per year ($73 five-year total) to $19 per year ($97 five-year total) The 20 year Town revenue for a single family home would drop from the old estimate by $119 (from $370 to $251).

GRANT AND LOAN PROGRAMS FOR BOLTON GREEN MASS DEVELOPMENT Brownfields Site Assessment Program provides grants and unsecured, interest-free financing up to $100,000 for assessment. Bolton will submit an application for this program in Q4 of 2011 to cover the cost of the Phase II review of the site. An applicant must have site control (P&S Agreement) to submit an application. Brownfields Remediation Loan Program provides grants and flexible loans up to $500,000 for environmental clean-up. Bolton would submit an application for this program in Q3 of 2012 to cover the cost of the clean up of the site. MassDevelopment has indicated this project is eligible for the site assessment program and the remediation program. US EPA Brownfields Cleanup Grants Cleanup grants provide funding for a grant recipient to carry out cleanup activities at brownfield sites. An eligible entity may apply for up to $200,000 per site ($400,000 for the two sites on the Smith property). Funds may be used to address sites contaminated by petroleum and hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants. Cleanup grants require a 20 percent cost share for eligible and allowable costs and cannot include administrative costs. An applicant must own the site for which it is requesting funding at time of application. This is a complimentary program to MassDevelopment and Bolton could apply to both programs. Parkland Acquisitions and Renovations for Communities (PARC) Program The FY12 PARC Grant Round to assist cities and towns in acquiring and developing land for park and outdoor recreation purposes. Communities that do not meet the population criteria (35,000) may still qualify under the "small town," "regional," or "statewide" project provisions of the program. Only projects that are to be developed for suitable outdoor recreation purposes, whether active or passive in nature, shall be considered for funding. Grants are available for the acquisition of land and the construction, or renovation of park and outdoor recreation facilities. Access by the general public is required. Business Development Corp of New England Brownfields Redevelopment Access to Capital Program (BRAC) BRAC is administered by the Business Development Corporation of New England and offers low-cost, often state-subsidized, environmental insurance to help mitigate risk associated with brownfields redevelopment. Insurance for unknowns is $100K and grants of $50k are available.
