| Additional Description |
The Town of Vernon invites experienced qualified developers to submit qualifications for the development of the former sites of the Amerbelle and Daniels Mills as well as the adjacent lot at 19 Grove Street located along East Main Street (5 Brooklyn Street and 104 East Main Street) about one mile from Interstate-84. Combined, these three parcels total 8.43 acres and are bisected by the Hockanum River, offering an opportunity for riverfront development in the town’s Rockville Historic District. There exists the strong possibility of an additional 5.2 acres of adjacent mill properties at 98 East Main Street, 40 Brooklyn Street, and 1 Court Street that could further enhance the development of the former Amerbelle and Daniels’ Mill sites, bringing the total available acreage to 13.63.
The Town is open to a number of developer incentives to ensure a desirable outcome for this project. The Town may choose to enact a traditional fixed property tax assessment agreement as well as permit fee waivers and/or Tax Increment Financing. A 60-day streamlined land use regulatory process is promised for the right project. The Town is open to the option of an outright sale or long-term ground lease of the properties. The Town of Vernon’s elected and appointed officials and staff are willing to provide operational support to make this a valuable investment and have experience with other mill redevelopment projects, understanding the collaborative effort and advocacy these projects require. |
