Services to begin in 2017Collaboration drives creation of Hope Placeto serve homeless children and their families

Services to begin in 2017Collaboration drives creation of Hope Place to serve homeless children and their families
“Hope Place is a 55,000-square foot assistance center that will serve 170 to 200 individuals (35 families plus 32 unaccompanied youth) when construction is completed,” accordingto architect Bill Chapin. It will servehomeless children and their families,but not single homeless adults. Residents will undergo drug screeningand criminal background checks before being granted residency.
While Hope Place is not a single solution to the complex issue ofhomelessness in Volusia County, it addresses the compelling conditionsfaced by homeless students and families with children. It is estimatedthere are more than 2,300 students in Volusia County schools who arehomeless, which imposes a terribleburden of uncertainty and hungerupon them.
Hope Place is the result of a shared vision of Volusia County Government,Halifax Urban Ministries (HUM) andlocal business executive and philan-thropist Forough Hosseini. She hashad a life-long passion for children’swell-being, which led her to createFood Brings Hope, a non-profit organization dedicated to helpingfamilies with children who experiencehunger due to homelessness, povertyor other factors.
Working with educators, governmentofficials, builders, architects, bankers,lawyers and other professionals (allvolunteers), Hope Place is well on itsway to opening in 2017. It will featurea safe and comfortable residentialcampus complete with life services tolift the burden of homelessness fromstudents and homeless families withchildren, helping them thrive and
achieve independence. Also, it willfeature a neighborhood recreationarea on the exterior grounds that willbe open to Hope Place residents aswell as residents of the neighborhood.“Like everyone, the fact that so manyof our children are going to schoolwith no home to come from or to returnto is a heart-wrenching condition thatcannot be tolerated in a communitylike ours,” Hosseini said. “Fortunately,this is a widely held opinion amongmany of our community leaders.”
Hope Place was deeded by VolusiaCounty Government to Halifax UrbanMinistries (HUM), which has a long resume of community service anddealing with the complexities ofhomelessness at all levels. Renovationof the campus has been enabledthrough a grant from Volusia CountyGovernment.
At the last meeting of communityleaders who are collaborating to makeHope Place a reality, the news was allgood. Architectural plans have beendrawn and refined. Building materialsare being purchased at below-marketprices, with many of them being do-nated.
And savings resulting from donatedmaterials are being used to fund anendowment that will help fund opera-tions. The permitting is in place. Volusia County Government, VolusiaCounty School District and the City ofDaytona Beach are providing leader-ship and city officials are fast-trackingvital decisions to keep the project ontrack. City governments are schedulinghearings on funding to provide for operating costs of Hope Place andplans for operations are well underway.
“Halifax Urban Ministries is a faithbased, nonprofit organization that hasserved the community since 1981,”said Mark Geallis, Executive Directorof HUM. “Almost all of its funding isthrough financial donations by thelocal community. Ninety-four percentof each dollar funds services includinghomeless prevention and assistanceservices throughout Volusia County.Halifax Urban Ministries has threeservice centers and also provides services at 14 partner locations. HUMprovides programs and services withan emphasis on restoring dignity andproviding practical skills and resourcesto help the homeless help themselves.”
The Hope Place Building Committee isoverseeing design and construction toensure the project fulfills the visionguiding the project. Among the volunteer members of the buildingcommittee are Hosseini (Senior VicePresident of ICI Homes), who chairsthe group; Ted Serbousek of RitcheyMotors; Sandy Bishop of Volusia Building Industry Association; commercial builder Ronnie Bledsoe;Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Universityadministrator Rodney Cruise; attorneyAndy Hagan; developer Paul Holub;Nellie Kargar and Lenny Sanclementeof ICI Homes; and, retired business executive William Turner.
County Manager Jim Dinneen saysHope Place is a great example of awell thought out plan and businessand government leaders addressingthe need to assist homeless childrenand their families. "All communitieshave a homeless population, but partof the way we are judged as a commu-nity is by our commitment to care forone another," said Dinneen.
It’s not often that a civic problem is addressed, and re-purposes an aging building and brings useful resources to aneighborhood. But such is the case with Hope Place, a familycenter being created to serve homeless students, childrenand their families. Hope Place will pump new life into a long-closed school complex that has been relegated to use forstorage and overflow office space.

In 2015, the company announced thatit would be establishing a commercialbakery and that it would be locatedat the former site of CP Foods. Theproject represents a capital invest-ment of about $12 million. Since thattime, substantial changes to the configuration of the complex havebeen made to accommodate commercial baking and packaging. “It has been a long process,” saidKambiz Zarrabi, the principal directorof the company. “But we are takingwhatever time is necessary to ensureour systems are in place and we have qualified people to support theoperation.”
CareerSource Flagler/Volusia has heldseveral career fairs to help Blue Coast
Bakers find qualified people. Zarrabireports there will be 60 to 70 peopleon staff by the time soft operationsbegin and that he will grow the staffmonthly as qualified candidates areidentified. He still has openings forassemblers, maintenance/welders,mixers, packers, sanitation workersand warehouse personnel. He anticipates a workforce of up to 150 within a year or so.
As a commercial bakery, Blue CoastBakers produces large quantities ofmuffins, cookies, scones, croissants,quiches, coffee cakes, etc. His customers include airlines, hotels,convenience stores, supermarketsand coffee houses. Blue Coast Bakershas its own sales staff and also works
with brokers to sell its products.
The impetus for Blue Coast Bakersselecting Volusia County came from a Team Volusia EDC direct mail campaign created for the organizationby Benedict Advertising. The campaign targeted prospects in other areas whose business modelaligns with Volusia County’s target industry specifications.
Zarrabi moved here from the Washington DC area, where heowned Federal Bakers USA beforeselling the company in 2012. Thecompany anticipates commencementof service to a major new client in April and hopes to be fully operational this summer.
Blue Coast Bakers to begin operations soon
What once was a cavernous, mostly empty 198,000 square foot facility has been transformed to astate-of-the-art commercial bakery expected to be in operation soon. Blue Coast Bakers, on NorthHighway US 1 in Ormond Beach, will be receiving the last of its equipment next month and antici-pates a soft launch of its operations as early as March.

The project is commanding a budgetof $40 million and when commencesoperation, the staff is expected tonumber 150 to 175.
The Westin Daytona Beach Resort &Spa will feature 20,000 square feet ofconvention space and 200 guestrooms designed to the high standardsof the Westin flag and its developer,Summit Hospitality ManagementGroup. “We see Daytona Beach as ajewel that has to be experienced tobe fully appreciated,” said Abbas Abdulhussein, chief executive officerof the Summit organization. “Through marketing and providing a
memorable guest experience wehope to add to the appeal of Daytona Beach.”
As a Westin property the new hoteloffers an abundance of featuresincluding a full-service spa with services offered indoors and outdoors – taking full advantage of the oceanfront location. On theground floor there will be a full service restaurant and a unique court-yard suites area featuring fourteenrooms around a private courtyard.This will appeal to guests attendingmeetings, family reunions and othergroups. A rooftop lounge will offer
breathtaking views of the ocean.
Unique to Westin properties, thehotel will offer a Kids Club, with anarray of popular indoor and outdoorchildren’s activities, including a splashpad and other water features.
The project is being created at thesite of an existing oceanfront property.“While we took the building down toits bones, it is truly new constructionin every sense,” said Hines. “Youwould have to x-ray the place to findany trace of the former hotel.”
New oceanfront convention hotelWestin Daytona Beach Resort & Spa on target for 2017 Grand Opening

“We’re on schedule at this point and anticipate opening in mid-2017,” said Kevin Hines, GeneralManager of the new hotel. “We’re working hard to ensure the hotel adds to and enhances the Daytona Beach experience, whether guests are here for vacation, meetings or conventions.”

2016 began on a high note with thecommencement of non-stop service byJetBlue Airways to New York City’sJFK International Airport. The popularairline added DAB to its route map citing its strong potential and its residents’ affinity for New York City.Local officials were particularly gratified with the news given that DAB is the smallest market among JetBlue destinations.
Combined with the addition of JetBlue, demand for air travel nation-wide and the recent approval of DAB’snew Air Service Incentive Program bythe Volusia County Council, the futurelooks bright for the airport in 2017.The Air Service Incentive Program is anaggressive invitation to new air carriersand existing carriers to start up new service at DAB. The package in somecases can be valued at more than onemillion dollars for a carrier to beginnew non-stop service.
“The approval of the incentive package shows airlines that countygovernment leadership and the localcommunity are serious about expand-ing service, and we are willing to sharesome of the risk of starting new service,” said Jay Cassens Director ofBusiness Development for DaytonaBeach International Airport. “It is oneof the most robust incentive packagesoffered by any airport in the US. And ifwe are able to attract another carrier,the Volusia County Council has alreadyput the apparatus in place to fund afast-start marketing effort as part of
the incentive package.”
In 2016, more than 707,657 arrivingand departing passengers used DAB, a12.78 percent increase over 2015. Andwith larger airplanes in service and theaddition of JetBlue to the lineup ofcarriers, seat capacity increased year-over-year by 14.9 percent. Overall load factor levels reached 88 percentfor 2016, a strong number by any standard.
Volusia County Government’s pro- business posture combined withsolid numbers among DAB’s three car-riers, Delta Air Lines, American Airlinesand JetBlue Airways has not gone un-noticed in the industry, according to Cassens. “When we havemeetings with potential carriers, theyknow we come to the table with asolid track record and a commitmentfor all carriers serving DAB to suc-ceed,” he said.
Other indicators at DAB underscore itssolid performance in 2016.
While DAB is a service of VolusiaCounty Government, the airport isdesignated as an enterprise fund,meaning it does not use tax dollars foroperations. DAB must generate itsown funding, which it does throughnumerous revenue streams.
Of course, there are landing and facility fees from the airlines. Otherrevenues come from commercial prop
erty leases for establishments such asOutback Steakhouse and Houligan’sSports Grille, both of which are onDAB property. Concessions and parking also generate revenue for DAB, as dorental car companies. Collectively, rev-enues from tenants, concessions,rental car companies and parking totaled more than $24 million in 2016,an increase of 15% compared to 2015.
“The success of the airport’s passen-ger traffic growth is directly attributedto the community support during ourefforts to recruit JetBlue over the pastfive years,” said County Manager JimDinneen. “Our focus on relationshipsand economic development efforts re-ally paid off in 2016. Credit goes to theVolusia County Council for its contin-ued support of our airport, specificallyapproving the Air Service IncentiveProgram, and to our business partnersand the local community for using andsupporting our hometown airport.”
Airport Director Rick Karl concurred.“We have made a lot of progress inthe last year and it was great to seeour passenger numbers hit a 20-yearhigh, eclipsing the banner year of1997. We are encouraged for 2017,but it is very important that the com-munity continues to support the newJetBlue service. For any future, ex-panded service, we must continue todemonstrate a demand for existingservice to and from Daytona Beach In-ternational Airport.”
Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB) continuesits upward trajectory relative to passenger load factors, revenues and more. With strong numbersand ongoing efforts to attract more carriers, DABofficials eye 2017 with optimism for the future.

Those and other considerations arebehind two Volusia County cities’quest to create community centers.Both Daytona Beach Shores and Deltona have plans to build community centers to enhance theircities and bring people together.
City officials in Daytona Beach Shoreshave announced its new communitycenter will be built on the former siteof the Oceans Racquet Club.
“The new facility will offer more than16,000-square feet, which includesfirst floor space to house a new Daytona Beach Shores City Hall, acommunity room and a public displayarea,” said City Manager MichaelBooker. “The second floor will featureflex-space in the form of a large roomthat can be configured into smaller
sizes for small gatherings. It will beavailable on a rental basis and may be used for the city’s expandingrecreation needs. The second floordesign also features a cateringkitchen and ample storage space.”
Groundbreaking for the new $6.8 million community center is slated forthis month. Construction is expectedto be complete by February 2018.
Deltona has broken ground on itscommunity center and anticipates agrand opening in December. “TheCenter at Deltona” is a true multi-function community center, accordingto the city’s economic development manager Jerry Mayes. “It will featureabout 30,000 square-feet with seat-ing for up to 700 people in the 7,500
square-foot banquet hall,” saidMayes. “We designed a senior centerto be embedded in the complex. Anadjacent event lawn will also add tothe ambiance of the center, which isbeing created at an estimated cost of$9 million.” The event lawn will havepass-through doors to a pre-functionspace and banquet hall. The venuescan be used for community events,public gatherings, weddings andmore. Decorative landscaping will be used to enhance the setting and there is also potential for a community garden.
The addition of community centers in these cities will underscore the welcome that each community projects to new and current residentsand employers.
Deltona, Daytona Beach ShoresPlanned facilities designed to build sense of community
An oft-quoted report by the Urban Land Institute proclaims that public gathering places have a direct, positive impact on human health. “A well-designed public and semi-public realm can fostersocial interaction, and good programming can draw people out of their homes and into their community,” according to the ULI report titled “Ten principles for building healthy places.”

“Of course we want to see our employers succeed, and growth is abyproduct of success,” said RobEhrhardt, director of the VolusiaCounty Economic Development Division. “And when a company’sgrowth opens the door to relocation,we do everything we can to keep thatcompany here at home in VolusiaCounty. Keeping Magnolia River Services here is a prime example of retention.”
Magnolia River is an Alabama-basedengineering firm with an office in DeBary. The company’s growth aspart of the economic vitality of the region has led to the decision to establish a regional headquarters. Virgil Kimball, with the county’s Economic Development Division,worked with officials of DeBary andOrange City, and John Wanamaker at Coldwell BankerCommercial AIGroup, to meet Magnolia River Services’ needs locally and avoid the
potential departure of the firm to a location outside Volusia County. Asa professional services firm, MagnoliaRiver ranks high among industries targeted for recruitment and retention.
“Magnolia River Services is thetrusted provider of engineering, inspection and GIS solutions for utilityinfrastructure and operations,” saidKimberly T. Hoff, president and chair-man of the board of the firm, whichshe founded in 2000. Hoff originallylaunched Magnolia River Services as a small service provider to natural gas utilities. In the 15 years since inception, the company has grown to encompass clients in defense, government, homeland security, riskand emergency management industries.
The new regional headquarters willbe at 242 Treemonte Drive in OrangeCity. The move will create up to 17new jobs with an average annualsalary of $52,055, substantially above
Volusia County’s average annualwage of $34,696. The appeal of east central Florida as a corporate address, and approval for Florida’sQualified Target Industry Tax Refundprogram were influential in the com-pany's decision to remain in VolusiaCounty. Magnolia River Services mayqualify for $68,000 in incentives, 20percent or $13,600, which would bepaid by Volusia County once certainbenchmarks are achieved.
“Part of Magnolia River’s growth plan is to recognize key markets andestablish fully supported offices tohelp clients with an unparalleled levelof service at these focus sites,” saidHoff. “We are dedicated to making adifference one relationship at a time,and Volusia County is an excellent location from which to serve ourgrowing clientele in Florida and theSoutheast.”
