Item Affordable Housing Key to Economic Development(IUPUI (Campus). Center for Urban Policy and the Environment, 2003) Klacik, DrewCenter workforce analysis on behalf of Montgomery County Economic Development in the late 1990s provided an opprotunity to explore factors that influence workforce quantity and quality. This case study illustrates that seemingly unrelated issues, such as the number of new housing starts and a mismatch of housing stock type and salary levels, can create barriers to growth for local industries.Item Assessing the Current Value and Potential Contributions of the Greater Indianapolis YMCA(IUPUI (Campus). Center for Urban Policy and the Environment, 2011-12) Klacik, Drew; Marron, JohnThe YMCA contracted with the Indiana University Public Policy Institute (PPI) to measure the potential contributions to the community and YMCA members of the expansion strategy as well as current operations.

Comparing Indiana’s domestic migration across counties suggests that many counties in Indiana are only growing because individuals are relocating from other parts of the state. These domestic migration patterns are not sustainable for long-term population growth—they highlight that Indiana counties rely on one another’s residents for population growth rather than residents of other states. The data presented here underscore several key trends in county-level migration in Indiana: • Mid-sized Indiana counties provide the greatest source of growth in Indiana due to net domestic migration. This growth is mostly from: o Individuals moving from Urban Indiana to Midsized counties surrounding Indianapolis, and o Individuals moving from Rural to the other Mid-sized Indiana counties. • Indiana communities of all types have undergone a net loss in domestic migration to other U.S. states. o Most of those states are in the Sun Belt, are experiencing some of the largest population growth nationally, and are projected to continue that trend. o Individuals who move to other states from Indiana tend to move to metropolitan areas. o Urban counties in Indiana had the greatest net losses to other states. • Neighboring counties are sources of growth for some counties. o Rural populations may be attracted to more urban locations. o Domestic migration to border counties also exists for state-to-state migration, especially for Rural and Mid-sized counties. Overall, Indiana risks increasingly smaller population growth in all regions of the state due to multiple factors, but mostly related to losses in net domestic migration.Item The Economic Contributions of Marian University's College of Osteopathic Medicine(Center for Urban Policy and the Environment, 2010-08) Klacik, DrewDuring the development of the College of Osteopathic Medicine, Marian will invest $32,011,130 (not including financing costs) in building improvements and equipment purchases as well as over $700,000 in professional services contracts. The annual operating budget of the College will range from $14.6 million in 2013 to $18.2 million in 2016. Total employee compensation (wages and benefits) at Marian attributable to the College of Osteopathic Medicine will range from $7.6 million in 2013 to $10.5 million in 2016, and the number of students will gradually increase from 150 in 2013 (first year of classes) to 600 in 2016.Item The Economic Contributions of Marian University's College of Osteopathic Medicine(IUPUI (Campus).

The economic benefits associated with project development and ongoing operations were estimated through the use of the IMPLAN input/output model. Input/output modeling is used to determine the indirect and induced (or spin-off) benefits attributable to the initial or direct expenditures related to construction and operations. The estimates on increased spending attributable to visitors as well as the potential impact on property values are based on the results of a literature review of previous studies of the impacts of arts and culture related amenities in other communities. The human capital analysis for Howard County is based on adapting Michael Porter's industry clusters analysis to Richard Florida's creative class notion. The human capital analysis uses ESRI marketing data to identify the clusters of human capital, and the cultural and social amenities that appeal to this human capital, that Howard County is competitvely advantaged in attracting.Item Economic Development Evolution The missing link between Porter and Florida: Human Capital Clusters(IUPUI (Campus). Center for Urban Policy and the Environment, 2008-09) Klacik, Drew; Payton, Seth; Ottensmann, JohnThis issue brief is intended to bring the policy and marketing potential of the human capital cluster approach to the reader's attention and provide an overview of how it might be used. Delving into the 12 clusters (and the 65 lifestyle segments that comprise the clusters) in greater detail is essential to the focused and targeted development of amenities and marketing strategies. Furthermore, the use of additional sources of marketing data (perhaps from other vendors) could be useful as a tool to both check the findings of the ESRI data and further refine policy development.
