  • Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Photos Used with Permission of Pacers Sports & Entertainment Used with Permission of Pacers Photos Indiana Basketball
    FINANCIAL SECTION COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Photos used with permission of Pacers Sports & Entertainment used with permission of Pacers Photos Indiana Basketball Professional basketball came to Indianapolis in 1967 when eight businessmen invested a few thousand dollars apiece to create the Indiana Pacers franchise as a charter member of the American Basketball Association (ABA). The nickname “Pacers” was decided on through a collective decision of the original investors. It was a combination of the state’s rich history with the harness racing pacers and the pace car used for the running of the Indianapolis 500. The Pacers became a member of the National Basketball Association (NBA) in 1976 as a result of the ABA-NBA merger. They originally played in the Indiana State Fairgrounds Coliseum, but moved to the Market Square Arena in downtown Indianapolis in 1974 where they stayed for 25 years. They moved to Bakers Life Fieldhouse in 1999 where they currently reside. Over the years the Pacers have been home to a number of top talent including five Hall of Fame members: Reggie Miller, Chris Mullin, Alex English, Mel Daniels and Roger Brown. The team won three championships while in the ABA and eight division titles so far in the NBA. They were also the Eastern Conference champions in 2000. 2 - State of Indiana - Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Comprehensive Annual Financial Report - State of Indiana - 3 4 - State of Indiana - Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Comprehensive Annual Financial Report - State of Indiana - 5

  • See the ULI Indianapolis RPC June 4-5 Agenda
    INDIANAPOLIS Urban Land Institute East Central Regional Product Council June 4-5, 2018 1 WELCOME TO INDY 2 ABOUT THE RPC Regional Project Councils A Regional Project Council (RPC) provides a multi-disciplinary forum for information exchange and the sharing of best practices among mid- and senior-level members who work in a particular industry sector. Members will have the chance to interact with like-minded professionals in the ULI East Central Region (ULI District Councils in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Indiana, Kentucky, and Pittsburgh). Regional Product Council Topic The ULI East Central Regional Product Council 2.0 will focus on Public/Private Partnerships in Mixed-Use Development. The urban core has become an increasingly attractive location choice in each of the ULI East Central Region District Council areas. RPC discussions will center on how current demographic shifts and preferences for an urban, walkable environment will affect development patterns. These patterns include infill development, adaptive reuse of historic and obsolete buildings, and creative urban housing, retail, and mixed-use developments — even in traditional suburban settings. Member Expectations • Open, honest exchange of specific information and experience: Members participate openly and honestly, sharing specific, detailed information and experience from their real estate practice. • Confidentiality: Confidentiality is the foundation for open and honest sharing of detailed information and experience. • No self-promotion: Presentations and discussions are aimed at delivering real take-home value. • Recruit the best and the brightest: Innovative leaders, both ULI members and nonmembers, are invited to participate as guests. Members identify ways to continually add value to the conversation and make an impact on the community.

Meroney, Hose Carrier Wind Engineering and Fluid Mechanics Civil Engineering Department Colorado State University Costs of Fire to the USA America's fire death rate is one of the highest per capita in the industrialized world. Fire kills over 4,000 and injures more than 23,000 people each year. Firefighters pay a high price for this terrible fire record as well; approximately 100 firefighters die in the line of duty each year. Direct property losses due to fire exceed $8.5 billion a year. Most of these deaths and losses can be prevented! Special characteristics of Atria Atria, covered shopping malls, convention centers, airport terminals, sports arenas, and warehouses are examples of large spaces for which conventional fire-model approaches are not always effective. Challenges No way to maintain blocking pressure differences without barriers (doors, vents) Large communicating spaces present so smoke moves unimpeded Actual Atria Fires “ There are plenty of examples of fire tests in large spaces, but few actual events of note. Hotel fires occur all the time, but few are serious. Smoke management is the most important aspect of these fires.” Kevin McGrattan, NIST, noted in an email (24 September 2002) Market Square Arena 1974 May 6, 1974: Fire in Market Square Arena, Indianapolis set during installation of gutters on the roof during construction.
