Info

Comparisons of Escondido with Close-By Communities draft is available online for the Downtown Specific Plan, which provides a comprehensive plan for land use, development regulations, incentives and guidelines for Downtown Escondido. Expedited Development Processing Cities’ use of Expedited Development Processing programs was investigated by means of Web searches, on the premise that it is the communication about programs of this type that is critical to creating a city’s “business friendly” image. Web searches among the competitive cities revealed expedited development processing programs only in Temecula and Murrieta, which each utilize a Fast Track program. The Murrieta Fast Track program details were accessed via the Planning Applications and Forms portion of the City’s Community Development Department webpage. 6 This page emphasized program eligibility criteria, which include: Providing 50 or more new, permanent full-time jobs within the City, with preference to existing residents, on condition that at least 10% of the jobs created pay in excess of the average household income in Temecula or Murrieta; Generating a private investment of at least $25 million in land, building and/or equipment; Generating at least $50 million in new, taxable retail sales, annually. Details for the Temecula program were found within the Business Advantages section of the Economic Development portion of the City’s website. The procedural details listed there include: 7 Two-week pre-application review process; Three-week review of initial formal submittal, two-week review of resubmittals, one-week condition of approval preparation; Construction process: 10-12 business days for initial review period, 5-7 business days for resubmittal review period and inspections within 24-48 hours of request. Escondido maintains a comprehensive database of the status of development projects and specific permits as they are routed through the City approval process. In reviewing this database, TNDG did not attempt to use it as part of this competitive assessment. The information would have to be compared to databases in other cities, and even if those databases were similarly structured, the modeling effort would still also require an in-depth understanding of target processing times, assumptions about the reasons for the length of certain review periods, etc. The Escondido permit/project databases will be revisited in later stages of the Economic Development Master Plan. 6 http://www.murrieta.org/cityhall/cd/planning/apps.asp 7 http://www.cityoftemecula.org/Temecula/Businesses/why/BusinessAdvantages.htm ESCONDIDO COMPETITIVE ASSESSMENT | The Natelson Dale Group, Inc. 33
Economic Development Marketing Components Comparisons of Escondido with Close-By Communities Several of the communities included a plethora of marketing-type materials showcasing a number of the communities’ attributes, which included information related to: General community profiles and demographics (education, etc.) Business climate, industry clusters and top employers Small business resources Murrieta offers the most in-depth resources, which include a number of economic development marketing brochures and industry and office development opportunities, among others. For Escondido, the “Doing Business in Escondido” page on the City’s website provides an effective overview of relevant City programs and resources (as well as links to other business-oriented organizations). An attractive marketing brochure for Escondido has recently been made available through the City’s website, which summarizes key attributes and locations in the community, and lists major employers and City contacts. Economic Incentives Data related to economic incentives were obtained from the Kosmont-Rose reports. According to this source (which the City may want to update with Kosmont-Rose based on the information shown on the table), Escondido is the only community that has completed transactions for Industrial Development Bonds and Tenant Improvement Subsidies (the Kosmont-Rose survey of cities is updated annually and the City should verify that the summarized information is accurate and up-to-date). Escondido, Murrieta and Vista appear to have provided, or would be willing to consider providing, a greater number incentive types when compared to the other competitive communities.
