Online Industrial Building Submission
Available
The Cabinet for Economic Development has been marketing
industrial properties for decades. With the pervasiveness of the World Wide
Web, the Cabinet took a giant leap forward several years ago with the
development of the Economic Development Information System (EDIS). The EDIS is
a web-based searchable database for sites and buildings, along with detailed
community information. EDIS showcases industrial sites and buildings in
Kentucky that are readily available for the location of business and industry.
Early this year, the Cabinet introduced an online
industrial building submission form to further enhance the site's
capabilities. The online application allows individuals to update
information for existing building inventory or to submit
eligible buildings to be added to the database. Now local
economic developers and commercial real estate brokers can quickly and easily
submit new industrial buildings for inclusion on the Cabinet's Web site, or
update information for existing buildings in the database.
"The online submission is up-to-date and extremely effective,"
said Sarah Murphy, Business Development Manager, Scott, Murphy & Daniel,
LLC. "Each section is user-friendly, which makes it easy to follow and
time efficient. I would suggest this method to anyone
submitting an available building."
Having current information is critical in the economic
development arena. Allowing local partners access to update building
information 24 hours a day saves time for them and Cabinet staff, while keeping
available data as up-to-date as possible for the end-user.
Prior to making a building submission, please review
the Cabinet's facility criteria at
http://www.thinkkentucky.com/edis/Bldg/ListABuilding.htm. New
users must first register their email address and password. The
individual making the submission will be the only person with access to add or
change information until the initial submission is complete. After
the building has been processed and approved for listing, any person designated
in the contacts section will have access to edit the information. .
To receive more information or ask questions about submitting
an industrial building, please contact Tammy Bullock, Industrial Building
Coordinator in the Site Evaluation Branch at TBullock@ky.gov
or 502-564-4886 ext. 3204.
