Description

Greater Columbus Georgia Chamber of Commerce September 26, 2013

Franklin County Convention Facilities Authority • The FCCFA was created in 1988 to build the Greater Columbus Convention Center. • The FCCFA is a special government unit created under Chapter 351 of the Ohio Revised Code. • The FCCFA has an 11 member board appointed by the Franklin County Commissioners (6), City of Columbus (3) and Suburban Mayors (2). • The FCCFA was created to develop, build and operate convention facilities in Franklin County. The FCCFA has full governmental powers to levy a 4% countywide and additional .9% citywide hotel tax, set its own budgets, appropriate property and other duties outlined in ORC 351. • The FCCFA owns the Greater Columbus Convention Center, Nationwide Arena, the Columbus Hilton Downtown, land used to develop the Hyatt Regency and Drury Inn and Suites and various parking facilities.

Greater Columbus Convention Center • The Greater Columbus Convention Center (GCCC) was developed by a community urban redevelopment corporation (CURC) and opened in 1980 as a mixed use facility called the Ohio Center. The CURC became the operating company that managed the facility. • The Ohio Center consisted of 90,000 sf of arena/exhibit space, 50,000 sf of meeting space, an 18,000 sf ballroom and a retail mall. It was connected to the 631 room Hyatt Regency. • Almost as soon as it opened, the Ohio Center was too small to be an effective convention center and planning began for a new convention center. • The FCCFA opened the GCCC in March, 1993. It contained 216,000 sf of exhibit space, 50,000 sf of meeting space and a 25,000 sf ballroom. • In 1996, the FCCFA assumed ownership of the Ohio Center and through an RFP process hired SMG to manage the combined convention center. • The convention center was expanded in 2001 to add 125,000 sf of exhibit space, 15,000 sf of meeting space and a 15,000 sf ballroom. 3

Need for a Full Service Convention Hotel • The target market for Columbus conventions are groups with room blocks ranging from 1,000 to 3,500 that have met in our geographic region. • With the Hyatt Regency (631 rooms) as the HQ hotel, Columbus was able to meet the HQ hotel requirement for 65% of our target market. The addition of an additional 500 room HQ hotel enables us to meet the HQ hotel requirement of 92% of our target market. • At 426,000 sf of exhibit space, the Greater Columbus Convention Center can accommodate approximately 98% of our target market. • Based on market surveys, a new 500 room HQ hotel increased the propensity of customers to meet in Columbus by 170%

Public Private Partnerships • Nationwide Realty Investors developed the office buildings immediately south of the hotel site and brought 9,000 jobs downtown. • The FCCFA expanded the garage next to the hotel by 900 spaces to provide daily parking for these new workers. • The revenue received from these daily parkers covers approximately 85% of the debt service on the bonds. • Hilton International provided $3 million in upfront cash to help develop the Hilton Columbus Downtown.

• The current convention center accounts for approximately 208,000 room nights annually for an economic impact of $140 million. With the new hotel this impact is expected to increase by at least 52,000 room nights worth $35 million in economic activity. • The convention center accounts for 2,100 jobs, $44 million in wages and $9.2 million in tax collections annually. With the new hotel, we expect 550 new jobs, $11 million in wages and $2.3 million in new tax collections.

Secrets to Success Build What You Can Afford

Design the Hotel Through DD, THEN Retain the Brand

• Agree upon a reasonable NOI projection • Back into development budget • Fight – Fight – Fight to keep it in budget

• Brands some times want to better their image at your expense • Make approval of DD part of Brand selection

Square Feet is Your Enemy

• Think quality, but small rooms – conventions are short term stays • Study non-revenue support spaces diligently • Limit meeting space (a little) if hotel “laminated” to Center meeting spaces

Get the Public Role Approved

• Approve incentive package then seek development partner • Good developers with capital relationships won’t take approval risk • Avoid “other people’s money” developers

Make the Right “Business” Decision

• Make it about economics, keep politics out • Select someone you want to do business with • Consider a community led selection/recommendation
