SEPTEMBER 4,,,,1987:
The proposed developer of this property, Artfield Builders, has
requested a field change from the Consent Decree of 1980. In

addition, a ,iffrom, the Development Code is requested.
The Consent, Decree in 1980 did not relieve the developer of
complianc,e, with other Codes,,, In our current Development Code we
I I
require compensatory storage for any ''Io'odp a'in development.
The building layout in 1980 did not provide sufficient room for
this compensatory storage,The com,bination of the Development
Code modification and this field change will allow a, basin large
enough to provide for displacement o,f any flr o,od watecause
id by
construction. The number of buildngs,,, fo,o,t,�,rint of buildings,
p
and number of units has not changed. The Plan Commlssi,on
reviewed the Development Code request at their meeting of August
19th and recommended approval by a vote of 5-0.
My staff sent out a courtesy notice to surrounding property
owners advising them of this meeting and placed the developer in
contact with one of the two parties who signed the original
Decree,

DATE: SEPTEMBER 4, 1987
SUBJECT: MULTI -FAMILY REHABILITATION FUNDING ASSISTANCE
The Village Manager's office was requested by the Mayor to investigate possible
sources of funding multi -family residential rehabilitation projects. I met with Staff
Planner Michael Sims and Intern Richard Brandau and reviewed a number of Federal
Grant and Loan Programs. Many of the programs had to be rejected because the
eligibility requirements were too restrictive.
The Program, we believe, the Village could make use of is the Rental Rehab itila-
tion Grant Program funded by the U. S. Department of Housing, and Urban,
Development and administered by the Illinois Department of Commerce and
Community Affairs (DCCA}.
The Program has been zero funded for fiscal year 1987, however, due to a low
response for assistance under this Program, there are funds still available from
fiscal year 1986.
PROGRAM RE!2UIREMENTS
The Rental Housing Rehabilitation Grants are for use by State or local governments,
for rehabilitation of privately owned, primarily residential property to be made,
available to lower income tenants.
Rehabilitation subsidies for each project are limited to an average of $5,000 per
unit, for high cost areas, and ,50%, of rehabititation costs.
DCCA selects projects through a review of a number of factors:
*Quality and Completeness of Grant application;
*Degree of -need -in- area- in—w-hich- -the-application covers*
*Percentage of lower income families (below 80% of area median)
which will be served (70% minimum);
*Number of large families with children to be served
two bedroom or larger);
*Documentation of leveraging funds committed.
Mike Sims has indicated his concern that the Village may not be able to meet the
70% to income, ruin mum for targeted areas of.Boxwood and South Busse Road,,
The Village m1g,ht be, able to meet the requirement on indiv,ldua,l buildings only,.
