(b)The number of local governmental unit parties to the applicant's interlocal agreement if the applicant is an eligible act 7 entity.
(c)Whether the application demonstrates evidence of significant job creation potential of a regional or state asset or combinations of enterprises, facilities, or obsolete facilities within the territory of the applicant, as documented by a comprehensive business plan and a third-party study or studies quantifying the job creation potential, and the degree of the job creation potential.
(d)Whether the application is supported by public and private commitment and the degree of the commitment.
