C. In what way(s) is the property abandoned. idled. or underused?
The property is partially idle and underused. The presence of older structures prevents the
property from being put to its highest and best use. The property is located in an area that is
experiencing redevelopment. This parcel is an excellent candidate for redevelopment
consistent with the mix of commercial, retail and residential taking place in the area.
D. In what way(s) is the actual or possible contamination at the property a hindrance to
development or redevelopment of the property (attach anv supporting documentation such as
letters from lending institutions)?
Prospective purchasers and lenders are not interested in purchasing this property due to the
inherent uncertainties associated with the property's environmental concerns. Inclusion in the
Brownfields program will eliminate the uncertainties.
E. In what way(s) is the redevelopment of the property difficult or impossible without a
brownfields agreement (attach anv supporting documentation such as letters form lending
institutions)?
Without lender financing or a purchaser, redevelopment of the property will not be possible.

commit? Be as specific as specific as possible.

H. Estimated capital investment in redevelopment project: $6.8 million dollars
I. List and describe the public benefits that will result from the property's redevelopment. Be as

tax base increases, revitalization of blighted areas, preserved green space, preserved historic
places, improving disadvantaged neighborhood quality-of-life related retail shopping
opportunities, affordable housing, environmental cleanup activities or set asides that have
community or environmental benefits. In gauging public benefit, NCBP places great value
upon letters of support from community groups and local government that describe
anticipated improvements in quality of life for neighboring communities that the project will
bring about. The inclusion of such support letters with this application is recommended and
encouraged.)
10
The planned redevelopment of this land will offer public benefit that includes job creation,
increased tax base and further revitializtion of the area. Jobs will be created first through the
need for construction labor during the construction phase and secondly through permanent jobs
for the the business owners and their employees who own and work in the commercial and retail
businesses that will occupy the property. The planned development will substantially increase
the value of the property and provide additional tax revenue for controlling muncipality. The
enclosed letters supporting the planned development where provided by Lake Norman Regional
Economic Development and the Town of Cornelius.
Special Note: Please describe all environment-friendly technologies and designs PD plans
to utilize in its redevelopment strategy. For example, environment friendly redevelopment
plans could include: Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Certification,
green building materials; green landscaping techniques such as using drought resistant
plants; energy efficient designs, materials, appliances, machinery, etc.; renewable sources of
energy, and/or recycling/reuse of old building materials such as brick or wood.
