  • Section 1 Introduction
    Lucas County Vacant Industrial Land Use Report Prepared by The Toledo-Lucas County Plan Commissions February 2008 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Toledo-Lucas County Plan Commissions directed the preparation of this report to provide decision makers in Lucas County along with developers and industrial realtors with an analysis of undeveloped and limited use industrial land. This report examines nine (9) areas of Lucas County comprising approximately 2,800 acres located outside of the cities of Toledo, Maumee, Oregon and Sylvania. Professors Neil Reid of the University of Toledo Department of Geography and Planning and Michael C. Carroll of Bowling Green State University’s Department of Economics – Center for Policy Analysis and Public Service conducted research to identify the target industrial clusters for the Northwest Ohio region. Based on their research, Professors Reid and Carroll have identified seven (7) initial industrial target clusters as the basis for recruitment efforts in the region: • Innovative Engineering and Architectural Services • Automotive • Information Technology • Transportation Logistics • Specialized Agriculture/Greenhouses • Plastics/Glass • Alternative Energy The challenge to the region, as identified by Drs. Reid and Carroll, is to focus economic development efforts to compete on a global basis, and to grow and attract these industries to Northwest Ohio. The most significant factor derived from local industrial real estate professionals was proximity to the Interstate Highway System. The real estate group told the Plan Commission staff that highway access, as opposed to rail access, was the primary consideration for industrial sites. Rail proximity can be an advantage but one participant noted that only one out of ten industrial firms typically need a rail spur.
