New Business 10/16/2015Village of Mount Prospect Community Development Department MEMORANDUM TO: DAVID STRAHL, ACTING VILLAGE MANAGER FROM: DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DATE: SEPTEMBER 23, 2015 SUBJECT: 1061 FEEHANVILLE DRIVE (03-35-102-030-0000) — CLASS 6B REQUEST Attached to this memorandum is a resolution that would grant approval of a Class 6b property tax incentive for Nicholas and Associates at 1061 Feehanville Drive in the Kensington Business Center. The property was formerly owned and occupied by the Roscor Company and has been vacant for over 3 years. Nicholas and Associates currently has the property under contract and intends to lease it to a warehouse and distribution company, subject to approval of the 6b incentive. The Village has granted several Cook County Class 6b tax incentives to attract and retain businesses. The 6b incentive reduces the assessment level for qualified manufacturing and warehouse/distribution facilities from 25% to 10% for the first 10 years, 15% for year 11 and 20% in year 12. After year 12, the assessment level returns to the full 25% for the benefitting property. The property is currently assessed as a vacant property and the property taxes generated from the site have been reduced from $131,194 in 2012 to $51,643 in 2014. If the class 6b incentive is approved, the property taxes would be approximately $60,000 annually. In addition to the slight increase in property taxes, the occupied building would have a positive impact on the local economy generating "spin-off' revenues from the new employees as they support local restaurants and retail establishments. The 6b incentive would not be initiated until a qualified tenant is occupying the 33,000 square foot building. If the new tenant does not qualify under the 6b program (warehouse, distribution and manufacturing facilities) then the property would be assessed at the full 25% level. Please forward this memorandum to the Village Board for their review and consideration at their meeting on October 6`h. Staff will be present at that meeting to further discuss this matter. .� William J,Cooney Jr Nicholas & Associates, Inc. September 17, 2015 Mr. William Cooney Village of Mt Prospect 50 S. Emerson Street Mt Prospect, IL 60056 RE: 1061 Feehanville Drive Dear Mr. Cooney, I am writing this letter as my formal request to obtain a "613" class designation for the property we are obtaining next door to our current location on Feehanville Drive in Mt Prospect. The building located at 1061 Feehanville Drive has been vacant and unoccupied for at least 3 to 4 years and is in need of a substantial renovation. It is our intent to provide that renovation and utilize the new building for a warehousing and distribution facility. We anticipate to start demolition and renovation early next year hoping to be complete by the third quarter on 2016. In the meantime, we will start to clean up and restore the exterior of the building and site as soon as possible. This, I hope, will be totally acceptable to you as the current condition is pretty much an eye sore to the Village of Mt Prospect. We will also start immediately to maintain the property on a weekly basis. Thank you for your input and we look forward to any comments or concerns you might have. You may reach me at our office at 847-394-6200 or my cell phone at 847-878-6655. Sincerely, Nicholas & Associates, Inc. -� N.E. Papanicholas President 1001 Feehanville Drive Mt.

Lisa Angell Village Clerk Page 2/2 Village of Mount Prospect Community Development Department MEMORANDUM TO: DAVID STRAHL, ACTING VILLAGE MANAGER FROM: DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DATE: SEPTEMBER 23, 2015 SUBJECT: PROPOSED TEXT AMENDMENTS TO CHAPTER 11, MERCHANTS, BUSINESSES, OCCUPATIONS AND AMUSEMENTS The attached ordinance would modify the regulations related to coin in slot devices in the Village. These amendments are intended to address current technology and business models that are being implemented by various businesses in the community. The addition of two new restaurant establishments initiated a review of our current ordinances that regulate coin in slot devices. Smokey Bones Restaurant utilizes table top devices that allow customers to play video games for a fee in addition to placing orders for food and drinks. These devices utilize credit cards for payment of these games. Tokens and Tankards will be utilizing a token payment system for their video and pinball games. Neither of these payment systems is currently defined by our code, therefore staff is proposing amending the definition of coin in slot devices to reflect these payment methods. In addition, the current code requires an annual payment per device for coin in slot devices. Staff is proposing a cap on the annual license fee of $500 for establishments with amusement devices/pinball/electronic games and $250 for establishments with all other coin in slot or reverse coin devices. This fee structure is in line with those of surrounding communities and will allow these establishments to operate successfully within the Village. Please forward this memorandum to the Village Board for their review and consideration at their meeting on October 6'h. Staff will be present at that meeting to further discuss this matter.

Scrap metal is generated from maintenance and capital improvement projects. Attached is a detailed list of the items to be declared surplus and an ordinance that authorizes the village to sell the surplus items through the methods defined in the attached Exhibit A. Scrap metal is taken to a recycler that pays the Village per pound of material delivered. The rates offered depend on the type of metal and may vary daily. Based on current pricing, Lake County Scrap offers the best pricing for materials including aluminum, brass, and insulated wire. Cozzi O'Brien offers the best pricing for scrap steel. However, if pricing should change the material would be taken to the recycler offering the highest individual unit pricing. Please refer to Exhibit A for a detailed list of the quantities to be recycled and current pricing. Attached is an ordinance declaring miscellaneous personal property (Exhibit A) as surplus. With your concurrence, I would like to present this ordinance to the Mayor and Board of Trustees for their consideration at the October 6 2015 Village Board Meeting. Jason H. Leib I concur. Sean P.
