Section 9: Additional Case Studies

Case Studies Utilizing Various Types of Business Models

Big Sandy Telecommunications Center

Project Location: Pikeville, Kentucky Grant Recipient: Big Sandy Telecommuting Services, Inc./Pikeville College Total ARC Funding: $553,530 Total Matching Funds: $1,105,106

Prior to the ARC grant, very few businesses or residents in the Pikeville region had Internet access. In fact, there was no Internet service provider (ISP) in the region at the time the grant recipient applied for ARC funds. In addition to the lack of an ISP, most businesses and residents in Pikesville lacked access to training in the latest computer software programs. Given its isolated setting, there was also a desire to use the Internet and other forms of telecommunications technology, such as videoconferencing, to link schools, businesses, and community leaders with other communities in eastern Kentucky.

This project was primarily designed to provide a range of services to the businesses and residents of the five counties in the Big Sandy region of Kentucky. These included serving as an ISP, providing training and technical support in the use of the Internet and software, and building a telecommunications access site equipped with computers and videoconferencing equipment. Although the original ARC grant was designed to support a wide range of activities, much of the effort focused on establishing and maintaining the community's only ISP.

In serving as the region's first ISP, the project connected over 750 customers to the Internet. In addition, through the project’s training and telecommunications acquisitions, community businesses, educational institutions, and residents were exposed to new and emerging technologies. While this might have occurred without the ARC project, many felt that the ARC project accelerated this process. There are now 4-6 ISPs in the region, which are staffed or managed by people who received training or were exposed to the Internet through the project. In addition, the entire Big Sandy area was recently upgraded with a fiber optic backbone, which would not have been possible if not for the ARC grant and the resulting use of the Internet throughout the region.

Over the life of the ARC grant, over 700 people participated in classes on computer skills and applications. Because of the project, these professionals were able to take advantage of continuing education opportunities without leaving the community. People who attended BSTSI training are now employed in numerous businesses and educational institutions practicing the skills learned at BSTSI. Finally, the region has experienced increases in business productivity and job security, and several businesses had located in the region in part because they were able to find employees who had computer skills obtained through BSTSI.



Medical and Government Internet Coalition Network (MAGICNET)

Project Location: Athens, Ohio Grant Recipient: Ohio University Total ARC Funding: $77,167 Total Matching Funds: $149,168

The primary goal of the Medical and Government Internet Coalition Network (MAGICnet) was to provide rural physicians and government officials access to "local services, state resources, and global connectivity" through the Internet. Toward this end, Ohio University’s College of Osteopathic Medicine (COM) and Institute for Local Government Administration and Rural Development (ILGARD) provided project participants with hardware, software, training, implementation assistance, and one year's worth of Internet access. COM and ILGARD also assisted local Internet service providers (ISPs) in expanding their service to underserved areas of southeast Ohio.

Project participants have taken advantage of the capacity-building opportunities made possible through the MAGICnet project. Sites have been able to institute computerized billing systems, saving time and money. Internet access has provided sites with access to a wealth of information, such as inter- library loan services for physicians and federal and state grant opportunities for government sites. Members of the community have received better service as a result. Physicians can access patient education materials online and print and disseminate them to their patients. Government officials can provide services in a timelier manner and can use technology to gain information, which makes their grant applications more competitive. The ISP situation has changed dramatically as well, with more competing ISPs and choices for service.

Recognizing the impact of technology, many sites have taken the initiative to upgrade their equipment and expand their vision of how they can use technology. As an example, some local governments have expressed an interest in learning Geographic Information Systems (GIS), which can be used for resource management and community planning and development.

N-Logue’s Rural Connectivity Model

Although among the top 10 largest networks in the world and the third largest among developing countries, India currently has only a teledensity of 2.5 per 100 persons (1). With development resources directed primarily towards the urban areas, rural populations conceal a strong latent demand for connectivity and communication access. Yet rough terrain, absent or decaying infrastructure, dispersed populations, and low per-capita incomes continue to ward off both public and private sector investment.

Business Model - Where others see obstacles, Indian start-up n-Logue Communications sees opportunity. N-Logue has created a for-profit business model to tap into this latent rural demand for connectivity. N-Logue was incubated by the Telecommunications and Computer Network (TeNet) Group of the Indian Institute of Technology in Madras as part of the institute's strategy for developing and disseminating innovative, affordable communication technologies to the rural



poor of developing countries. N-Logue has fashioned a franchise-based business model that consists of three levels of interdependent networks. At the foundation- level, n-Logue forges and facilitates relationships among a wide-range of organizations—hardware and equipment providers, non-governmental organizations, content providers, and government—that enable and support the businesses of franchise owners. At the next level, n-Logue maintains a regional network of franchised Local Service Partners (LSP). The LSP works in tandem with n-Logue to set up an Access Center or node to which individual kiosk operators will be connected. At the highest level of the business model, local entrepreneurs are recruited by the LSP to establish village-level kiosk franchises that provide Internet and telephone access to the local population. Through the LSP, n-Logue offers low-priced "kiosk packages" consisting of a subscriber wall set (that connects the kiosk to the Access Center), a computer, printer and backup battery. The kiosks essentially function as combination rural Internet cafes and pay phone booths. While n-Logue provides kiosk owners with training, support, and technical assistance, local franchise owners themselves are responsible for developing additional product and service offerings (e.g., computer courses) and marketing strategies.

Infrastructure - N-Logue employs a unique, TeNet-designed Wireless Local Loop technology as the basis for its village- level communications package. This CorDECT technology consists of a fixed wireless local loop (WLL). CorDECT operates on the same principles as regular wireless technology with voice and data communication moving through radio frequency rather than wires. With WLL a fixed unit emits the originating signal. The CorDECT system provides voice, voice band FAX/DATA transfer and Internet connectivity at 35-70 Kbps to 1 Gbps when digitized. The subscriber wall set (WS-IP) can transmit both voice and data signals simultaneously to an access center, which must be located within a 25km line of sight distance. CorDECT technology effectively and inexpensively addresses the problems of distance and lack of infrastructure in rural areas. Installing a fixed wireless local loop does not require expensive digging, and the system consists of only 4 major components. Because the central base station/ direct interface unit (CBS/DIU) handles traffic from 200-1000 subscribers, it works ideally in small, dispersed markets and does not require the large subscriber base that traditional landline or cellular systems require for profitability. This low infrastructure investment, combined with low usage costs, makes the proposition affordable both for suppliers and customers in capital-constrained economies. Human Capacity - N-Logue offers training and business advisory services to its franchisees at the kiosk and LSP level. To find qualified kiosk operators, it has drawn from the large pool of graduates from India's many technical/computer institutes. It has been less successful in recruiting entrepreneurs at the LSP level, but recently has restructured and accelerated that process. N-Logue's own management consists of mature executives with extensive experience in the telecommunications sector and in sales, marketing, and business development for multinationals and blue chip Indian companies.



Enterprise - The following factors enhance the sustainability of n-Logue's business model: « income generation at the local level « cost effective technology « decentralized organizational structure « local adaptability « local accountability

To implement its model, n-Logue has forged partnerships with an impressive network of organizations and entrepreneurs. To gain access to the long-haul telephone network and Internet backbone, n-Logue has negotiated relationships with BSNL, the former Department of Transportation monopoly, and Satyam Infoway, India's primary bandwidth provider. To facilitate entrepreneurs' access to capital, it has partnered with financial institutions such as the National Bank of Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) and Indian Bank. It has overcome the barrier of expensive hardware through its relationships with IIT incubated R&D and manufacturing companies and by obtaining volume discounts with suppliers. N-Logue's partnerships with entrepreneurs form the crux of its business. Local service providers (LSPs), who are usually established businesspeople or district governments, maintain access centers and recruit kiosk operators. LSPs provide training, business advisory services, and collect the revenues from the kiosk operators, which are then passed on to n-Logue. Kiosk operators develop and market their own business offerings. To date, most kiosk operators have generated the largest portions of their revenue from net-based services, computer education and job work.

Key Lessons - N-Logue's success in its pilot phase and the headway it has made towards resolving national and regional licensing and regulatory issues can be attributed to the strong relationships it established with influence makers, governments, other businesses and entrepreneurs. It has leveraged these relationships to overcome a host of obstacles ranging from capital constraints to expensive hardware to lack of relevant content. The company will need strong infusions of cash to meet its growth projections. Fortunately it has many of the other necessary inputs for growth in place. The enthusiastic response to the business opportunity of kiosk ownership and the innovation kiosk operators have demonstrated in developing their businesses have exceeded the most optimistic expectations of n-Logue managers. By developing a business that is locally adaptable and locally accountable, n-Logue has positioned itself to successfully tap into an enormous latent demand for connectivity in rural India.

Buffalo, Minnesota

Buffalo, Minnesota, a growing town of 12,000, decided to install a control and data acquisition system for its electric utility, so adding a few more strands of fiber for data transmission seemed an easy option for broadband connectivity for the community. However, demand suddenly



increased from both residential and business users in the area. Since 90 percent of those in demand were not on the planned fiber route, and extending fiber to them was far too costly for the town to absorb, Buffalo decided to find another way to reach those demanding service.

Buffalo partnered with wireless equipment provider WaveRider Communications, Inc. and decided to become its own Internet Service Provider (ISP). The town is currently installing a non- line-of-sight (NLOS) broadband fixed wireless system that it hopes will reach about 1,700 homes and business, or about 60 percent of the available market.

Buffalo plans a two-phase rollout. The first phase is now complete and cost $180,000. This included the construction of three wireless towers. Residential users within one kilometer (five-eighths of a mile) of each tower pay $29.99 a month for 128 kilobits/ second for access. Business users can purchase speeds up to 256 kilobits/sec at a higher price. The second phase will require the construction of five more towers and will cost about $300,000. The town anticipates a four-year return on the total $480,000 investment.

Residential service started in late 2001. Over 125 customers had signed up by mid-January 2001, and two to three new subscribers sign up each day. According to Merton Auger, the city administrator, people looking to buy homes or set up businesses in Buffalo, just 26 miles from Minneapolis/St. Paul, are already asking if properties are located inside the high-speed Internet areas.

Grant County, Washington

The Grant County Public Utility District (GCPUD), a municipally owned public electric utility, has deployed a Fiber to the Home (FTTH) network in the city of Ephrata in Central Washington. The project, called ZIPP, includes a municipal fiber network and an all- fiber local access network. The utility deploys and operates the ZIPP fiber network, while independent service providers contract with the GCPUD to offer Internet access, voice, and video over the network.

In 1998, the utility began deploying a fiber network connecting the electric generating plants, power substations, and office buildings together for monitoring purposes. Once the utility points were connected, GCPUD decided to extend the network into a fiber ring and offer excess capacity to other businesses and organizations, including individual homes. The fiber ring was completed in 2000. The utility uses the network to offer advanced services such as automated metering and monitoring, and then leases the excess capacity to telecommunications service providers. In August of 2000, the utility started operating the network on a trial basis, serving 100 homes and 30 businesses. The FTTH network connects to the ZIPP municipal fiber ring and then connects through the Northwest Open Access Network (NoaNET) to a major Internet Point of Presence (PoP) located in the Westin building in Seattle.

The utility began deploying the network only to homes that had ordered the services. However, they decided to gradually deploy the network to all of the homes for a given stage of deployment since the fiber splicing and resealing process was so expensive. As of June 2000, network cabling was placed near 3,700 homes and businesses. The plan was to deploy the network to



8,000 homes and businesses by the end of 2001 and complete coverage to all sites (approximately 40,000) in the next three to five years.

The project is financed by the utility’s capital budget. The first stage of the project has cost around $12 million and the total cost is estimated to be $130 million over the next three to five years. The utility estimates that it will pay $35 to 40 million of the total cost and that revenues will cover the rest of the costs. Equipment installed on a customer’s premises costs approximately $1,000 per subscriber, but consumers only pay the utility a one-time connection fee of $300 and an ongoing monthly fee of $40 to use the network. Subscribers choose their own service provider from four Internet Service Providers in the community. They provide symmetric broadband Internet access at 100 Mbps, with monthly fees ranging from $9 to $25 a month. A digital TV service with 120 channels and video-on-demand began on a trial basis in the summer of 2001.

Jacksonville, Florida

Jacksonville, Florida is a thriving community that boasts state-of-the-art fiber-optic connections in many of its downtown businesses, but the city wanted to find a way to get affordable broadband access to community centers in poor neighborhoods and economic development zones outside the downtown area. The city plans to conduct a pilot project over the next year that would create wireless zones across the region based on the 802.11b wireless local area network standard. Anyone within a defined Wireless Internet Zone (WIZ) created using 802.11b connections can access the Internet at speeds of up to 11 megabits/sec.

The city's first WIZ began operating in late 2001 as a technology proof-of-concept at Jacksonville Landing, a retail, restaurant and amusement center located on Jacksonville's downtown riverfront. Anyone with an appropriately equipped laptop or handheld computer can access the Internet within that zone, free of charge. As WIZ expands, the city may charge a small fee for access. WIZ will reach about 80 percent of the people in areas that want broadband services but cannot otherwise afford them. A WIZ can be installed for about an eighth of the price for a comparable wired solution.

Pocahontas, Iowa

Adopting the most appropriate (and sometimes innovative) technology can overcome many cost or deployment hurdles for rural areas. The most appropriate technology also takes into account demand factors, leading to higher take rates by consumers.

Pocahontas, Iowa, a community of approximately 2000 people, turned to a wireless system provider after being told that Qwest was not interested in providing broadband service. Rather than spending $4 million upgrading the town’s cable system for broadband, Pocahontas chose a multipoint microwave distribution system (MMDS) for an initial investment of only $32,000. The system is based on recently developed non- line-of-sight technology, which provides greater flexibility and quicker installation, but less bandwidth, than older line-of-sight systems. The



system from Evertek Inc. provides MMDS technology in the 2.1 to 2.7 Ghz frequency range, allowing a single radio tower to cover a 35-mile radius.86 The city splits the monthly customer revenue with Evertek and expects to recoup their initial investment within three years.

Pocahontas is able to supply 512 Kbps downloads to customers for a $29.95 monthly fee. This is a broadband value proposition that seems to be hitting home with area residents. Around 20% of the town’s 900 households have signed up for the service, which has only been available since December of 2001. City Administrator Greg Fritz notes that the relatively low cost is the key to the system’s success. The lowest cost using a line-of-sight option would have been $45 per month for 128 Kbps service and $99 per month for businesses to receive 256 Kbps. Pocahontas charges the same price for business and residential and has 20% of the area businesses signed up as well. The 20% take rates for both residential and business customers are nearly double the national rate, which seems to confirm the importance of a broadband price point of approximately $30.

Stockholm, Sweden

The City of Stockholm believed broadband capacity would create an educated workforce, a prosperous economy, and an attractive lifestyle for its residents. In 1994, the city chartered a company called Stokab to build and manage a publicly owned, open-access fiber-optic network in the city that would provide dark fiber to telecommunications operators and other users at cost. Stockholm did not want multiple providers repetitively digging up its streets, so the city granted access to its ducts and tunnels. Stokab hung fiber-optic cable in the subways, and pulled it alongside steam and water pipes, electric cables, and sewer lines.

The City of Stockholm also realized it was cheaper and more practical for providers to lease Stokab fiber, than build their own networks. Stokab supplies dark fiber to carriers and resellers, who terminate and light their own fiber and supply all services above the fiber layer. Stokab is not involved in customer premises wiring. Any provider can use the network to deliver their services, allowing providers to customize their services for a specific customer. Customers of the Stokab network include telecom operators, Internet Service Providers, cable television networks, mobile telephone operators, municipalities, county councils, major banks, insurance companies, and the new media companies.

Under Swedish law, municipality-owned companies are operated to benefit the citizens and not to make a profit, so Stokab does not compete with the private sector. This increases competition among operators and thereby benefits business enterprise in the region. The users pay an access fee to use the network.

The Stokab fiber optic network began in the commercial districts of central Stockholm and the large industrial areas around Stockholm. In 1999, the network covered most of the central city and included public schools, libraries, district administrations, and industrial, office, and business centers in Stockholm. Based on the Stokab model, the Swedish Government is considering funding programs to assist municipalities in deploying open-access fiber infrastructure to every home, school, library, and business in the country. Sweden, working with the regional



municipalities, has accepted responsibility for planning and coordination of a nationwide fiber optic network.



Troy, New Hampshire The Troy Industrial Development Authority, seeking an innovative way to level the playing field, is creating a cooperative entity to provide broadband services. Subscribers would pay a town broadband entity, which would in turn pay a service provider. Since most providers don’t handle small business or residential users and Troy has a number of people who’d like higher bandwidth at more affordable prices, Troy officials are seeking to join Monadnock Connect as a town aggregate, not as an individual business. This project was in progress as of December 1, 2001, and attempts to serve all in the community. Digital Rivers

The Digital Rivers project in the Pittsburgh region is a comprehensive example of what can be done to gain an understanding of the market for broadband services.87 It focuses on the urban Pittsburgh area, but the demand analysis expands into surrounding rural counties. This project covers all the essentials for aligning broadband supply and demand factors. Broadband projects of this scope would serve greatly to enhance the broadband environment for any city. But short of replicating such a project, much can be applied to other areas from the Digital Rivers experience.

The major aspects of the project include the following:

« Status of local infrastructure « Area demographics « Cost analysis of various technologies and deployment « Survey of early adopters and unmet demand (county by county) « Analysis of current telecommunications environment, including the best practices of

others « Impediments to deployment « Implementation strategies « Pilot project

3 Rivers Connect (3rc) played a large role in the Digital Rivers project as well as the follow-up efforts based on the results of the project. 3rc, a non-profit organization, describes itself as a “project-oriented group (aiming) to provide broad, visionary leadership in the development of Western Pennsylvania’s information infrastructure.” One broadband deployment effort in Pittsburgh was implemented by 3rc, along with technology partner, Proxicast, LLC. Four different community improvement associations’ buildings were the first to be interconnected using Nokia Rooftop Wireless technology. Rooftop Wireless is a fixed wireless, mesh networking solution, which, in this case, delivers service speeds of 512 Kbps. The cost is approximately one-third of an equivalent speed DSL connection. The Digital River report points out that the Rooftop Wireless system is a competitive broadband technology for urban or suburban settings but is not suitable for areas where the number of houses per square mile is less than about 175. The ideal setting would be approximately 40 subscribers in a 1.5-mile radius. The Rooftop Wireless technology is one of several technological deployments considered by 3rc as they examine the various cost/performance tradeoffs for each community.



The Digital Rivers project was a joint effort including state and local government, university and private resources. Carnegie Mellon University provided a great deal of expertise in cooperation with the Alleghany County Department of Economic Development, the Pennsylvania Technology Investment Authority and the Howard Heinz Endowment. An advisory group also included input from the Army National Guard, Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center and Redleaf Inc. Finally, there was a large group of stakeholders with direct interest in the region’s broadband capabilities. This included local and national companies, the City of Pittsburgh, and other interest groups. It takes an alignment of goals from all these groups in order to meet the broadband needs of communities.

Wireless Internet Zone

The Wireless Internet Zone in Jacksonville, Florida is one example of a project, which incorporates broadband access, computers, where needed, and training to maximize use of the technology. City officials and community activists are bringing wireless Internet connectivity to two low income neighborhoods. The recent emergence of low cost Wi-Fi wireless technology is making such broadband Internet deployments more feasible. The Internet zones cover two different community areas with wireless access. However, because Internet access cannot be accomplished without computers, they have also been made available to residents who need them through a combination of the Urban League, Humana and Florida’s Agency for Workforce Innovation. Awareness and education is also key; organizers stress the importance of getting the message out to local residents about what is now available. The larger goals for the project are to enhance literacy, workforce development, minority business development and voter education. The project is a joint effort by the City of Jacksonville, the Chamber of Commerce, the Urban League, BellSouth, and consulting firms, the Boardwalk Group, Connexsys, and the inc.well consulting group.

Thomasville, Georgia

Local efforts to aggregate organize and direct local demand can also accelerate the migration towards broadband adoption. Broadband efforts of regional municipalities can be combined in order to increase the scale of the operation. This provides more leverage in obtaining access to Internet backbone capacity and allows costs to be allocated more broadly. One example of this is occurring in rural Thomas County with a population of 43,000 in southern Georgia. Thomasville, the county seat, serves as the local cable head end and provides a broadband link to Camilla, Moultrie, and Cairo, Georgia. This broadband rollout was initiated through the Thomasville City Utility when the city could not talk anyone else into providing the service. Now that they are up and running, new competitors are starting to take the market more seriously, with the other local cable provider now upgrading its systems for broadband and a DSL competitor on the way.

Meanwhile, 50% to 60% of Thomasville’s residents have signed up for the new cable TV system and 47% of these customers have taken the cable modem service, called Rose.net. This works



out to an overall broadband penetration for the city of almost 25%. The secrets of success in this case are likely to be found in price and customer service. Rose.net service for cable TV customers begins at $28.95 per month for 256 Kbps and climbs to $53.95 for 1 Mbps. Customers who subscribe to the cable modem service alone pay $43.95 for the 256 Kbps offering.

Dedicated customer service seems to be another factor for the higher take rate. Taking into account that most customers likely have limited technical expertise as well as patience, cable modems are installed by support staff for every customer, the technical support number is a local call and the wait is negligible. Moreover, the charges are incorporated on monthly utility bills in a precise, understandable manner.

“Hometown Utilicom”-Kutztown, Pennsylvania

The Borough of Kutztown with a population of over 5,000 is located approximately 50 miles northwest of Philadelphia between the cities of Reading and Allentown and adjacent to Kutztown University with an enrollment of over 8,000 students. In 2002, Kutztown completed construction of a broadband telecommunications infrastructure and facilities with fiber-optic cabling to the home/business (FTTH) capable of providing numerous voice, video, and data services. The borough was successful in building public-private service partnerships for the provisioning of services across the system. Just some of the services include traditional voice services, 10-100 Mbps Internet connectivity, security services, community intranet services and television programming from the municipal-owned headend. Some future anticipated services include state-of-the-art video and music offerings including both video and music-on-demand and interactive television and virtual private networking. These new voice, video and data services join the already existing borough electric energy supply and management services, water supply and treatment services, wastewater collection and treatment services and resource management (solid waste and recycling) services to provide one stop shopping, diverse billing and payment options and a value added services approach to the customer. This type of system was very complimentary to the municipal-owned electric system due to utility pole ownership, right-of-way assignments, bucket truck and other needed equipment being available, and technically competent staff for construction, service and maintenance, as well as marketing and billing services. Kutztown is also implementing an Automated Meter Reading (AMR) system for utilities. These new services will join the Borough’s existing Geographic Information System (GIS) and Supervisory Controlled and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems in enhancing the development of Information Technologies (IT) of the Borough to better serve the propertie s and residents.

These services are marketed and billed under the registered service mark of “Hometown Utilicom”. Revenues stay within the community. Property owners and residents are not required to purchase any of the new services being offered, and the borough realizes that it must prove services are a benefit and competitive in cost to not only compete, but to justify municipal ownership of the system.



A step-down star configuration passive optical network architecture was constructed to deliver converged voice, video and data services from the network operating center (NOC) or service control Point-of-Presence (POP) located in the municipal building to the customers’ premise. A fiber optics communication system was previously chosen for the utility’s SCADA system. The borough wanted to utilize future-proof technology to meet the high speed Internet and bandwidth demands and optical network solutions needed for additional services that will become available.

The borough has already discussed incorporating the Hometown Utilicom service industry with the Kutztown Main Street program, a downtown revitalization/reinvestment proposal. In addition, the borough is currently working on an economic development incentive initiative to attract commercial and industrial development along the Route 222 corridor to not only provide a basis for additional utility revenue, but to help relieve the growing school district tax burden on the constituents. The previously purchased Kutztown-Topton railroad spur by the borough may play a significant role in expanding services outside the Borough.

The borough felt that as a university host community, Kutztown’s needs to provide present and future adaptable technology to handle the needs of the information age is essential to remain attractive and viable to the students, as well as other residents who call Kutztown home.

Economic Development Initiatives Data by County

Clarion County

Clarion County Economic Development Corporation is planning development of Beaver Township Industrial Park, a 77-acre KOZ. Construction of the roads and utilities is expected to commence in Spring, 2002. Another 43-acre KOZ is being privately developed by Clarion Trinity Development Corporation as part of a 155-acre development, known as “Trinity Point”, in Monroe Township at I-80 Exit 62.

Clarion County will need some additional KOZ land.

Industrial land development in Clarion County is somewhat unique compared to many adjacent jurisdictions…Clarion County is attracting new large users, primarily in the manufactured home building industry.

These data shows that almost all of the new industrial land development in Clarion County is the result of new companies moving to the County from outside of the region, and thus representing new growth of the region.39

Crawford County

Crawford County has industrial parks with the KOZ designation and ready-to-build lots. Crawford County has several former manufacturing plants converted to multi-tenant facilities with KOZ designations, including the Talon Plant 7 in Meadville and Titusville Opportunity Park in Titusville.

Crawford County has five KOZ sites, including the largest KOZ in the region. Two KOZ sites are the reuse of manufacturing plants, while the others are industrial parks. All the sites are active.

Crawford County is in excellent position to generate increased industrial land development with 1,300 well-located acres of KOZ land. This total is high compared with the past trends and may suggest that Crawford will be a much more competitive location within the region and may attract some development that previously may have been attracted to Erie or Mercer County.

All the County’s industrial properties are in or near Meadville or at Titusville.

Within Crawford County (and other adjacent Counties) most industrial expansion is not new development on vacant land.41

Some of these characteristics may be seen as opportunities. The fact that the County is a net exporter of workers to Warren and Mercer Counties in Pennsylvania, and Trumbull and Ashtabula Counties in Ohio, suggests that the potential labor force for jobs in the County is fairly high. Furthermore, prevailing wages are quite low and the County is in a good competitive position to lure industries seeking an abundant pool of inexpensive labor. Conversely, the estimates for the 1990s are very encouraging, suggesting that the County is rebounding.42

Some needed transportation system improvements in Crawford County include enhancing access to various industrial sites, reducing congestion on Meadville’s North Street, better coordinating social service transportation, upgrading roads and access areas for wide-body trucks (102 inches), and diverting through truck traffic out of Meadville. As with many areas throughout Pennsylvania and the country, improved truck routes in Crawford County are needed to attract new industry, specifically east-west corridor travel routes between Meadville and Titusville. Based on business information from the Meadville-Titusville East-West Corridor Study and the 1973 Comprehensive Plan, road improvements to State Routes 27, 77, and 408 are desirable. Additionally, improvements to State Route 198 and the roads to the industrial zones west of Meadville are needed. Beyond enhancing the County’s transportation


42 Comprehensive Plan Phase II: Plan Elements for Crawford County, Pennsylvania, 1997-2000; Prepared by the: Crawford County Planning Commission and Richard C. Sutter & Associates, Inc., Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania and of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania



network, such road improvements would increase the number of workers within a 30-minute commute of both Meadville and Titusville. This would be a significant business attraction.43

As the population has increased, residential development has spread out from the boroughs along existing roadways; primarily in the form of low-density, scattered single-family housing. Large development has occurred in the forms of intense commercial development along major transportation corridors, highway related commercial development, and tourist related commercial and seasonal housing. The redistribution of population over recent years indicates an increasing preference for a suburban or rural location as compared with housing within the boroughs. For financial reasons; - lower taxes and cheaper land - as well as some social reasons, families tend to move outward to newer areas, which are perceived by many to be more desirable. A large portion of the County’s land remains vacant or wooded; however, much of this land in the southern portion of the County is too steep for economical construction or any high-intensity use. At the present and for the next several decades, most of this wooded land is best reserved for watersheds and conservation purposes or for passive recreation areas. There remains potentially developable land immediately surrounding the already developed areas of the boroughs; however, the ever-increasing needs and demands upon the land, which will only be compounded in the future, make it imperative that growth throughout the County be properly guided.44

Erie County

Erie City, at 103,717, remains the County’s and the region’s largest municipality in 2000.

Millcreek Township (52,129) saw the greatest growth between 1990 and 2000, +5309. Harborcreek (16,267) had the second highest growth, +1159.

For the smaller urban areas, Edinboro Borough experienced the largest drop in population (-786) while Girard Borough (+285) and Lake City borough (+292) experienced the highest growth.

In the non-urban townships, Conneaut grew the most (+1,970) between 1990 and 2000; however, 1,885 of the change were due to the development of SCI-Albion. In terms of true residential growth, Girard (+411), Washington (+424) and Waterford Townships (+476) experienced the greatest increases. Greene Township (-191) saw the largest rural population loss.

One of the reasons that Erie County has kept its demographic vitality while neighboring counties are experiencing difficulties is its concentration of colleges and universities. These institutions represent a mini-community within the greater area.45

New housing developments favor communities along Erie’s Lake shore or the I-79 corridor. …Fairview is where most of the upscale units are built, followed by Millcreek. However, McKean and Washington Townships are also seeing increased development.46

Future changes in land use that will have a significant impact on traffic will generally proceed along existing development patterns, with residential development continuing in the municipalities surrounding the City of Erie. Some limited industrial redevelopment and new industrial development will occur in the City of Erie along the Bayfront and in the enterprise zone, in Millcreek Township, Harborcreek Township, Summit Township and the City of Corry. Commercial development is also planned along the Bayfront in the City of Erie and at selected locations throughout the City. In addition, commercial development is expected in Millcreek, Summit, Harborcreek and Fairview Townships.47

These data show a significant number of KOZ sites in Erie County, most located either in the City of Erie or in Corry, which is in the southeast corner of the county. Corry has had an active industrial development market in recent years. Many of the KOZ sites in the City of Erie have some environmental issues, but some of these are already being addressed. Erie County’s Albion site is in private ownership and currently inactive.

Erie County has industrial parks with the KOZ designation and ready-to-build lots. Erie County has several former manufacturing plants converted to multi-tenant facilities with KOZ designations, including the Erie Plastics facility in Corry.

Some industrial parks have KOZ designation while other KOZ sites are raw land proposed for future development.

Erie County has considerable KOZ land but much of that land is in private ownership and not readily available. Much is also available in the Corry area. All of the KOZ land in the City of Erie (329 + acres) consists of brownfield sites, with 30 acres possibly available for development within 12 months (of March 2002). The major issue is funding for infrastructure which is being addressed. The 40 acres in Fairview Business Park, near the City of Erie, is available immediately. The data suggest that Erie County’s readily available KOZ property is insufficient for potential long-range demand based on past trends.48

Recomme ndations

Perform more detailed business planning to determine the optimal partnering strategies for a community branded offering and determine the optimum route for the 6-mile fiber optic cable. This route should pass the largest number of potential businesses and multifamily residential units and still connect the necessary City facilities as originally intended.

The City should appropriate the necessary funds and construct the network.

Follow parallel paths of negotiating with current and potential services providers and forming the Not-For-Profit entity as the first step of creating a Public/Private partnership. Maintaining this flexibility will ensure the City has both maximum negotiating leverage with providers and can secure a business arrangement that can provide the greatest financial benefits to the community.

4. Pursue potential State of Pennsylvania grants currently available to fund technology infrastructure improvements that could benefit low-income housing residents and others within the community.

Next Steps (assuming the City affirms the above recommendations)

1. Prepare Detailed business plan

2. Initiate discussions with the 13 potential providers

3. Conduct an engineering study to determine both the optimum technology to deploy and costs for such.

4. File the necessary applications with the State of Pennsylvania Economic Development Department to obtain available technology grants for technology infrastructure construction.




5. Approach surrounding townships and boroughs to get their participation and financia l support if necessary.49

Forest County

Forest County had a 200-acre KOZ site in Jenks Township north of Marienville, but that land has been taken off the market because it is currently being developed with a new Pennsylvania State Correctional Institution. Forest County is the only county in the Northwest region that is currently not actively developing and marketing one or more KOZ property.

Forest County has no KOZ land; however, it also had no demand.

Forest County also has the privately-owned Marienville Industrial Park, which is the reuse of the former Anchor Hocking Glass Plant in Marienville as a multi-tenant facility. Approximately 40,000 square feet of space is immediately available. A new electro-coating business and painting business represent recent industrial activity in the complex.50

The remaining narrative information (not tabular) for Forest County is from The Forest County Comprehensive Plan, 1998 (See footnote at end of section)

Growth Priority Areas

A local consensus is in near agreement that the Route 66 corridor, north and particularly south of Marienville and, the Route 36 corridor, south of Tionesta, represents the most suitable parcels for future growth. Fortunately, detailed land use infrastructure, environmental limitations, and even preliminary site planning information are available for these corridors (see the 1987 Forest County Tornado Disaster Economic Recovery Plan and the 1988 Marienville Corridor Economic Recovery Plan). With much of the detailed planning complete, what is now needed is a means of implementation.

What has kept these areas from developing in a manner desired by the community? There seems to be three factors. First, the lack of public water and sewer. Second, the lack of concerted marketing efforts by communities or property owners. Finally, based upon studies of similar situations throughout western and central Pennsylvania, is a lack of development incentives.

Economic Development Plan

Though it may be said that Forrest county got little lasting benefit from the Industrial Revolution, there is hope that the community can come out a winner in the new information-age economy.

The new information-age or post-industrial economy has certain characteristics which would make Forrest County an appropriate home for such economic activities. Locational emphasis in information–age economics is almost wholly based upon quality of life. Since information is a commodity, and it can be transferred inexpensively worldwide, proximity to labor pools and resources is unimportant. In spite of its problems, Forrest County has small pleasant towns, scenic vistas unmatched in the eastern United States, and a way of life which much of the nation envies.




The second notable factor of an information-age economy is its decentralization. Most of the new information-age businesses are relatively small and work in coalition with other businesses.

One final trend also lends itself to hope for Forest County’s economy. That trend is toward community-based economic development. Communities from Nova Scotia to the American Midwest are choosing, in part, to opt out of the global economy, and rebuild the economic infrastructure which will make them viable for the foreseeable future. The survival of the community depends, in large part, on whether we will be able to revitalize and resurrect our community-based economies.

Each of these sectors has various opportunities which can help close gaps and complete the web. They can be summarized in three general areas:

« Agro-Forestry and the Processing of Forest Products

« Tourism and Residential Development: Seeing Quality of Life as a Marketable Commodity

« Retail and the New Service Businesses

New Service Activities :

Many analysts extol the information-age economy, which is essentially service-based. For Forest County to participate in this economy will require attention to proper business infrastructure. This includes high-speed modem lines, fiber optics, and access to various Internet and computer-related services. It is recommended that the County work to aggressively pursue the development of such infrastructure. An excellent resource already exists in the IDC facility.

Correctional facility/Major Facility Impact: Overall, this new facility will be the most significant impact on Jenks Township and Forest County since the oil boom. (i.e. wages, jobs, population increases, increased housing, import of goods and supplies, construction, gasoline and food sales, etc.)

The actual economic impact of the project would probably be spread through large parts of Forest, Venango, Clarion, Warren, and Elk Counties. Though the prison would probably not adversely effect local quality of life, without preparation now, it will not create benefits.

Conclusion

There is a strong interest in economic development to create job opportunities and prevent the out migration of the young.

There is a strong preference for locally based development in the form of “cottage industries,” small business wood products and business opportunities based upon quality of local life. This desire can be tied to previous points as the local desire for a complete, fully functioning local economy and community.51

Tionesta Wireless Project

51 Forest County Comprehensive Plan, 1998; Prepared by the Forest County Conservation District and Planning Commission, Assisted by Graney, Grossman, Ray and Associates, New Wilmington, Pennsylvania, Franklin, Pennsylvania



In cooperation with the Forest County Commissioners and the Forest County Industrial Development Corporation, the Northwest Commission was able to secure a $44,000 grant from the Appalachian Regional Commission to implement a public-private partnership offering broadband wireless Internet into Tionesta Borough and surrounding municipalities. Until October 2003, an affordable broadband solution was not available in the tiny, rural community. Recently, the telephone company began offering DSL in order to stay competitive with the wireless project. A bid process will take place in November to select a wireless provider who will implement the service and will complete the partnership. Implementation is set to be complete by January 2004.

Lawrence County

Lawrence County has industrial parks with the KOZ designation and ready-to-build lots.

Lawrence County has six KOZ sites.

Lawrence County appears to be in balance in terms of supply and demand, especially with the addition of a new industrial park that has ready-to-build lots and another proposed industrial park.

Lawrence County has eight industrial parks, but only one is new and highly competitive. None of the existing industrial parks are located near I-79. Several are brownfield developments and one is a relatively unusual sub-surface property. 52

Mercer County

Mercer County has multiple KOZ sites in the Shenango Valley industrial corridor on the west side of the County, as well as an industrial park in Greenville. Some of the KOZ sites in this area have environmental issues and may not be developed in the near term.

The Shenango Valley area includes the cities of Hermitage, Farrell, and Sharon. The Shenango Valley KOZ sites are typically brownfield sites that were part of closed steel mills, but there is also a Greenfield site and a residential site in that area.

Mercer County appears to be in balance in terms of land supply and demand. This is because 500 acres of brownfield KOZ property is unlikely to be developed for years, if ever. Mercer County has competed for large users recently and the KOZ property in the County does not provide adequate sites for this type of development with the exception of Greenville -Reynolds East.

Mercer County has numerous advantages for industrial development. There are two interstate highways (I-79 & I-80) that transverse the County, one in an east-west and one in a north-south direction. The County is in the path of the New York to Indiana market. The County has considerable heavy industrial land that is in great demand for a wide range of manufacturing companies, particularly steel manufacturing and processing companies. The area has an excellent labor force and is a pro-active political community, with highly trained economic development professionals throughout the County. Thus, in terms of demand, there is no reason that the potential demand for new industrial land over the 2000 to 2009 decade should not equal or exceed 400 acres, assuming that the national economy continues to be strong and continue to create the market for manufacturing products.

If that is the case, then the County is in a negative supply-demand condition in terms of available industrial land.53

The remaining narrative information (and map, but not tabular information) for Mercer County is from Mercer County-Future “Planning for Livable Communities” Land Use Plan and Trends & Data (See credits in footnote at end of section)

2. People and development have simply chosen to relocate themselves, typically from the older, urban areas to the newer suburban and rural areas.

3. Commercial - The growth in commercial land use is more due to movement of business from urban centers to new outlying commercial areas.

Whereas there was a past 20-year growth of 500 acres (250 acres each 10 years) under a scenario of sprawl development, it is projected that 250 acres will be needed for new commercial growth under a scenario of non-sprawl development.




4. Industrial

Given the desire to improve economic development and job creation results, it is estimated that more than double the recent land absorption will be needed to meet desired goals. Higher projections are proposed in consultation with Penn-Northwest Development Corporation for two reasons: 1) new industries in the I-80/I-79 corridors are likely to be warehouse and distribution which has greater land needs per employee, and 2) the interstate corridor locations will draw from a labor market involving several counties beyond Mercer County.

It is projected that 1,000 acres will be needed for new industrial growth in the next ten years.

5. Revitalization target areas

Southwest Region

The old business and industry heart of the Shenango Valley, also now the major part of the Shenango Valley Enterprise Zone – Larger economic development opportunities include reuse of idle portions of Caparo Steel in Farrell (in planning stages with Shenango Valley Industrial Development Corporation), reuse of the vacant Westinghouse plant in Sharon (pending Superfund environmental clean-up) and continued revitalization of downtown Sharon.

Urban residential neighborhoods adjacent to the business and industrial center – These neighborhoods include older, more dense housing and are characterized by low incomes, high minority population and high percentages of non-owner occupants.

Older business and residential areas at and around downtown West Middlesex.

Northwest Region

Older, urban centers in Greenville and Jamestown – The downtowns and older adjacent neighborhoods should be targets for revitalization efforts. Downtown Greenville should continue to be a focal point for regional attention. Downtown Jamestown, on the gateway to the popular Pymatuning recreation area, could be an interesting target for creative tourism and travel business opportunities.

Northeast Region

Town centers – The older town centers of Stoneboro, Sandy Lake, New Lebanon and Sheakleyville, both business and residential areas, should receive continued attention for revitalization and reinvestment.

Southeast Region

Downtown Grove City – The downtown area should be a regional priority for revitalization efforts to ensure its long-term viability.



Central Region

Downtown Mercer – The downtown area should be a regional priority for revitalization efforts to ensure its long-term viability.

Town centers – The older town centers of Fredonia and Jackson Center, both business and residential areas, should receive continued attention for revitalization and reinvestment.

6. Growth target areas

Southwest Region

PA 18 from Morefield Road area to Lamor Road area in Hermitage – This corridor is favored for business growth and has substantial vacant parcels for development opportunities.

Broadway Road corridor and nearby areas in Hermitage and Wheatland – This area is currently targeted for industrial development and has some remaining parcels for further development.

East suburbs (Hermitage) and north suburbs (Hermitage & South Pymatuning) – These areas are within service reach of existing sanitary sewers and are logical growth choices for residential development.

West Middlesex outgrowth in Shenango Township – This area has sanitary sewer service which area proponents believe is under-exploited due to lack of development. It is a good opportunity for residential extension of the West Middlesex community. The PA 18 corridor should receive more attention for business/industrial development opportunities.

An area south of PA 318 between PA 60 and I-80 extending to Mitchell/Fennell/ Minner Roads presents an opportunity for economic development. It should be carefully planned to minimize impacts on existing residential development and sprawl into nearby rural areas. Completion of the half-diamond interchange at PA 60/ PA 318 is important for access.

Shenango Lake growth area – Recreation/tourism growth should be pursued here. Both the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Shenango Reservoir) and Shenango Valley Chamber of Commerce have discussed development opportunities despite the restrictions of federal ownership of the lake and surrounding lands.

Northwest Region

Extended communities around Greenville and Jamestown – These areas are good choices for extended residential growth and carefully planned business growth, coordinated so it does not adversely affect downtown revitalization efforts.

Reynolds industrial park growth areas – Two growth areas are being developed by Greenville -Reynolds Industrial Development



Corporation. Reynolds East on the Kidd’s Mill Road has the most long-term industrial growth possibilities in the region.

Northeast Region

Extended communities around Stoneboro and Sandy Lake – These areas are good choices for extended residential growth and carefully planned business growth, coordinated so it does not adversely affect downtown revitalization efforts.

I-79/PA 358 interchange – This area is targeted for business and industrial development (a small amount exists already). It is more of a long-term consideration, however, because of the lack of public sewer and water service and the large cost of extending such service from the Sandy Lake/Stoneboro area or building new facilities at the interchange.

Southeast Region

Extended community around Grove City – This area is a good choice for extended residential growth and carefully planned business growth, coordinated so it does not adversely affect downtown revitalization efforts.

I-79/PA 208 interchange – This area underwent dramatic change beginning two years ago with development of a major retail outlet center and coattail businesses. Public sewer and water now serves much of the interchange and more growth is likely.

The area is a good target for further business and industrial growth, but growth should be contained within a limited, controlled area. There is potential here for unplanned growth to burst and sprawl along the PA 208 corridor creating a snarl of traffic signals, entering/exiting automobiles, and acres of pavement and agglomerations of signs which do not match the vision of an otherwise rural community. Initially, the development area should extend no further than from PA 258 on the east to the vicinity of Grove City Airport on the west.

Leesburg village – It is ideal for additional development of village uses already here (homes, shops, historic sites, etc.) and enhancement of the rural, small-town pathway of tourism developed at a scale similar and sensitive to the existing village (human-scale buildings, short road setback, reuse of homes, school). It is not ideal for sprawling suburban commercial development set back behind expansive parking lots underneath bright all-night lighting.

Central Region

Extended community around Mercer and Fredonia – These areas are good choices for extended residential growth and carefully planned business growth, coordinated so it does not adversely affect downtown revitalization efforts.



I-79/US 62 interchange plus Jackson Center and Lake Latonka – This area attracted much interest at the regional meetings. There was even talk of a new, greater community by the linking of three areas:

Jackson Center has room to extend its existing community with more residential development.

Lake Latonka has room for significantly more infill residential development although the current lack of public sanitary sewer service is a serious constraint which must be overcome.

The I-79/US 62 interchange has land and potential for both industrial and business development oriented to serve a growing regional community. An industrial development project, Jackson Commerce Park being developed by Lakeview Industrial Development Corporation, is already underway on 100 acres in the SE interchange quadrant. Business development on available road frontage, carefully planned and contained without sprawl, would be an ideal complement to the region.

I-80/US 19 interchange – This interchange would be a very marketable location for economic development if public sewer and water service were provided. It should include primarily industrial development and effort should be made to secure as large as possible tracts of land for larger-scale development opportunities. Commercial development should be secondary and minimal so as not to sprawl the impact of development along US 19.

Charleston village – This village was suggested for extended residential growth with village-scale business possibilities.54

Venango County is in a similar position as Crawford with the very attractive Barkeyville KOZ site.

The County’s existing industrial parks are relatively small, ranging from 28 to 54 acres in size. These are located in the traditional development sectors of the County, in and near Franklin, and in and near Oil City.

While Venango County attracted 16 new companies that moved into the County during the 1990’s, all of the industrial land sales/development were the result of expansion of local companies. New companies primarily moved into existing industrial space rather than developed new plants.16

Warren County

Warren County has five KOZ properties.

Warren County has an excess supply of KOZ land based on past demand trends, although much of it is undeveloped. It is well-positioned to compete for a large land user due to the size of its sites.

At present, Warren county has one small publicly-owned industrial park, a large privately owned park and privately funded redevelopment of a vacated industrial property, a sizable incubator building, and five KOZ properties.

While the magnitude of industrial development activity in Warren County is small compared with most other counties Northwest Pennsylvania, current County activity represents sound progress for providing a more diverse industrial market, as “greenfield” land is being made available, in addition to the availability of land and buildings at redeveloped brownfield properties. Also, unlike most counties in Northwest Pennsylvania, where numerous submarkets exist, much of Warren County’s industrial development is located in one area/ i.e., within the vicinity of the City of Warren.56

The remaining narrative information (not tabular) is from the Warren County Comprehensive Plan, Draft Partial, April 2003 (See credits in footnote at end of section)

There was a consensus (from Citizen Visioning Meetings) that good industrial sites were needed with formal industrial parks and perhaps multi-tenant buildings.

Better access to I-86 (the Southern Tier Expressway), the construction of additional four-lane roads in the County, and improved access to major destinations (Erie, I-80, and I-79) were some specific concerns which did surface (during Citizen Visioning Meetings).

Industrial Focus Group

Transportation is OK – could improve access to Interstates, especially I-86.

Rail important, but used primarily for bulk freight-not time -sensitive.

Trained and motivated labor force is a big need.

Retention of professional staff a problem (hospital) – housing an issue

Out-of-County environmentalists hurting wood industry-competition from Mexico/South America woods and plastics is increasing

Job training/technical training a continuing need.

Need for immediate access to vacant industrial land and buildings. Tom Ehrensberger of the Governor’s Action Team stated that most companies scouting for space are interested in immediate access. “Spec” buildings, multi-tenant structures, and incubators are typical facilities.




Wood Products Focus Group

They recommended that a “niche” wood products industrial park be considered

Statement of Objectives

Overall Plan Priorities: Warren County’s most important asset is its youth – The children of today are the community builders of tomorrow. Over the past two decades, more and more of these young people have been leaving Warren County to seek work, education, and start families elsewhere. The primary purpose of this plan is to create economic opportunities in Warren County to keep our future leaders here, and attract new residents while maintaining a superior quality of life.

The Economy:

Industrial -Manufacturing-“High-Tech” Initiatives. Based upon State and County data, jobs in these sectors still, on average, pay better than any other economic sector. As a consequence, programs, policies, and initiatives to create jobs in these sectors will receive top priority. Generally, activities will focus in the following areas:

« Physical Assets – Create the needed physical resources, i.e. industrial land, the reuse of brownfield sites, and new structures to accommodate the expansion of existing businesses and attract new businesses to the County.

« Education – Support and create the infrastructure needed to both create and maintain a world-class workforce.

« Incentives

« Wise use of natural resources

« Improve retail options

« Promote tourist activities

Transportation

« Continue improvements to the condition and capacity of route 6.

« Create better access to I-86, the Southern Tier Expressway.

« Re-examine the County airport policy.

Community Facilities and Utilities

« Provide for cutting-edge technical training on a secondary and post-secondary basis.57
