The amended Generalized Land-Use Plan, Exhibit 3, attached hereto and made a part
hereof, identifies land-uses and public rights-of-way to be in effect upon adoption of this
Plan. The major land-use categories included within the Redevelopment Project Area are
office/governmental, central commercial, mixed-use, low-density residential, and
moderate-density residential.
All major thoroughfares and street right-of-way are shown on the Generalized Land-Use
Plan map. Their locations are subject to minor modification.
The following land-use provisions are established for the Redevelopment Project Area as
designated in Exhibit 3, amended Generalized Land Uses Map.
Office/Governmental
The office/governmental area is intended to provide for high-quality office and related
development within the heart of the downtown. Permitted uses include business and
professional offices, governmental offices, financial institutions, parking and business

compatible and special uses as approved by the Village.

office development such as retail and specialty shops, and business, professional, and
civic uses characteristic of a traditional downtown area. In contrast to the Office!
Governmental and the Mixed-Use development areas located in the center of the

development which is compatible with nearby residential areas. Other compatible and
special uses as approved by the Village may also be permitted.

adjoining the downtown. Permitted uses include single-family attached or detached
houses, townhouses or similar housing types, provided they are compatible with existing
nearby resident development. Other compatible and special uses as approved by the
Village may also be permitted.
Moderate-Density Residential
The moderate density residential area is intended to serve as an attractive residential area
with limited concentrations of medium to higher density apartment and multi-family
developments. This area is appropriate because a high level of transit service is present
and employment and commercial centers are located nearby. Although intended
primarily for residential uses, other compatible and special uses approved by the Village
may also be permitted.
OTHER AREA-SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES
In addition to the objectives in the Plan, which apply to the overall Project Area, several
other design and development objects which apply to specific land-use areas are listed
below:
Office/Governmental
A. Vehicular access to the area along Northwest Highway could be provided from
Northwest Highway and from Emerson Street; however, this area includes both
office and residential development, separate access systems should be provided
for the two land uses.
B. High-quality design and construction is important because of this high-visibility
location along Northwest Highway, near Main Street.
C. The Northwest Highway edge should be attractively and generously landscaped.
Mixed-Use Retail and Residential Area
A. Below grade parking for residential units should be provided to the extent
feasible, surface parking lots shall be consolidated between buildings.
B. Setbacks and landscaping along Central Road and Northwest Highway shall be
areas of design emphasis because of high-visibility locations.

15. A new section "Assessment of Fiscal Impact on Affected Taxing Districts" is included at
the end of page 20, and is found below:
Assessment of Fiscal Impact on Affected Taxing Districts
It is anticipated that the implementation of this Redevelopment Plan and Project will have
a minimal financial impact on most of the. affected taxing districts. In fact, the action
taken by the Village to stabilize and encourage growth of its tax base through the
implementation of this Redevelopment Plan and Project will have a positive impact on
the affected taxing districts by arresting inflation adjusted declines in assessed valuations.
Given that there is the potential for new development, the Village may permit new
residential development to occur within the RP A. As such, there could be an increased
burden placed on the area's school districts. To the extent that such development does
occur, and school age children result from new community arrivals, the elementary and
high school taxing districts could potentially be affected. The Village has made
allowances in this plan and project for revenue distributions to such taxing districts and
will follow the guidelines provided by the Act to compensate the district at levels dictated
by the precise increase in students. Additionally, should the Village achieve success in
attracting private investment which does result in the demonstrated need for increased
services from any other taxing district, the Village would consider declaring sufficient
TIP related surpluses, which funds are neither expended or obligated for redevelopment
activities, as.provided by the Act, to assist such taxing districts in paying the costs for any
increased services.
Though strategies will be encouraged to promote growth via private investment within
the area, specific objectives are geared to stabilize the RPA's existing strengths and
revitalize the RP A's redevelopment potential. Should the Village achieve success in
attracting private investment which does result in the. need for documented increased
services from any taxing districts, the Village will consider the declaration of sufficient
surplus funds (as long as those funds are not already obligated to the TIF), to assist
affected taxing districts in paying the costs for the increased services.
16. Exhibit 4 is amended and attached hereto.
17. A new Exhibit 8, Legal Description - Amendment #3, is attached hereto.
18. The TIF eligibility report for parcels included in Amendment #3 is attached hereto as a
new Exhibit 9.

Parcel.Descriptions
I. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
In the context of considering the amendment ("Amendment #3") of the Downtown
Redevelopment Project Area ("TIP No.1"), the Village of Mount Prospect (the "Village'') has
authorized the study of the amended areas to determine whether it qualifies for consideration as
an amendment to the existing Tax Increment Financing (the "TIF") District. Kane, McKenna
and Associates, Inc. ("KMA''), has agreed to undertake the study of the amended area. The
properties (the "Proposed Amendments") are located adjacent to the Downtown TIP No. 1 and
would be included as part of the Amendment #3 to TIP No.1.
The Proposed Amendments include two parcels "as described above, a commercial retail
center on Main Street and a six story office building (the Bank One building) on Busse Avenue.
The Village has undertaken ongoing review of the properties located within the
Downtown TIP No.1, as well as the Proposed Amendments for several years. In conjunction
with past and current redevelopment activities, the Village has also undertaken efforts to allow
for the extension ofthe existing TIP term by an additional twelve (12) years, in order to continue
the viable redevelopment ofthe downtown area on a comprehensive basis. The 12-year
extension request is currently under review by the Illinois State legislature, and is expected to be
considered in late 2005 or the first part of2006.
The Proposed Amendments will serve to continue redevelopment activities and to include
several key properties as part of the Downtown TIF No.1.
Due in part to their age, the structures and site improvements within the Proposed Amendments
were found to have varying degrees of deterioration due to the age of the structures. Ongoing
vacancies and functional obsolescence have also contributed to underutilization.
The Proposed Amendments also suffers from a lack of community planning. That is, the
area did not have the benefit of developing under the modem construction and land use
guidelines under either a comprehensive plan or an economic development plan. The limited
parking within the area, the minimal buffering between buildings and the limited
loading/unloading provisions are indications of this factor. The majority of the Downtown TIP
No.1 buildings are over thirty-five (35) years in age including the Proposed Amendments. In
conjunction with the qualification factors discussed above, and within other sections of this
report, these qualify the area as a "conservation" area, as that term is hereinafter defined pursuant
to Illinois State statute as amended.

OBJECTIVES
The Village's redevelopment objectives propose to enhance commercial, retail and mixed
use residential opportunities. To achieve this objective the Village proposes the following
guidelines:
. To redevelop the area in relation to transportation facilities (including
coordination with the existing Metra station) and infrastructure network for
improved accessibility use to the wider market area.
. To attract market driven residential and retail/commercial redevelopment.
. To assemble properties in a traditional manner in order to assist area
redevelopment objectives.
. To assist site preparation in order to provide for the reuse of properties.
. To assist and provide services to businesses and enteIprises that seek locations
within the Village.
Given Village goals under its comprehensive planning process and the conditions briefly
summarized above, the Village has made a determination that it is highly desirable to promote
the redevelopment ofthe Proposed Amendments. The Village intends to create and implement
such a plan in order to increase tax revenues associated with the Proposed Amendments and to
increase the community's tax base.
Given the conditions into which the Proposed Amendments has required coordination for
a variety of uses, the Village is favorably disposed toward supporting redevelopment efforts.
However, the Village is determined that redevelopment takes place through the benefit and
guidance of comprehensive economic planning by the Village. Through this coordinated effort,
the area is expected to improve. Development barriers, inherent with current conditions within
the Village's Downtown area, which impede economic growth under existing market standards,
are expected to be eliminated.
The Village has determined that redevelopment currently planned for the Proposed
Amendments may only be feasible with public finance assistance. The creation and utilization of
a TIP redevelopment plan is intended by the Village to help provide the assistance required to
eliminate conditions detrimental to successful redevelopment of the Village central core area.
The use of TIP relies upon induced private redevelopment in the Proposed Amendments
creating higher real estate value that would otherwise decline or stagnate without such
investment, leading to increased property taxes compared to the previous land-use (or lack of
use). In this way the existing tax base for all tax districts is protected and a portion of future
increased taxes are pledged to attract the needed private investment.

II. QUALIFICATION CRITERIA USED
With the assistance of Village staff, Kane, McKenna and Associates, Inc. examined the
Proposed RP A in July to August of 2005, and reviewed information collected for the area to
determine the presence or absence of appropriate qualifying factors listed in the Illinois "Real
Property Tax Increment Allocation Act" (hereinafter referred to as "the Act") Ch. 65 ILCS
Section 5/11-74.4-1 et. seq. of the Illinois Compiled Statutes, as amended. The relevant sections
of the Act are found below.
The Act sets out specific procedures, which must be adhered to in designating a
redevelopment project area. By definition, a "Redevelopment Project Area" is:
"an area designated by the municipality, which is not less in the aggregate than 1 ~ acres
and in respect to which the municipality has made a finding that there exist conditions
which cause the area to be classified as a blighted area or a conservation area, or a
combination of both blighted area and conservation area."
CONSERVATION AREA
The Act defines a "conservation area" as follows:
"Conservation area" means any improved area within the boundaries of a redevelopment
project area located within the territorial limits ofthe municipality in which 50% or more
of the structures in the area have an age of35 years or more. Such an area is not yet a
blighted area, but because of a combination of3 or more of the following factors maybe
considered as a "conservation area".
(1) If improved, industrial, commercial and residential buildings or improvements are
detrimental to the public safety, health or welfare because of a combination of
five (5) or more of the following factors, each of which is (i) present, with that
presence documented, to a meaningful extent so that a municipality may
reasonably find that the factoris clearly present within the intent of the Act and
(ii) reasonably distributed throughout the improved part of the redevelopment
project area:
(A) Dilapidation: An advanced state of disrepair or neglect of necessary
repairs to the primary structural components of building or improvements in such
a combination that. a documented building condition analysis determines that
major repair is required or the defects are so serious and so extensive that the
buildings must be removed.
(B) Obsolescence: The condition or process of falling into disuse. Structures
become ill-suited for the original use.
Tax Incremental Financing Qualification/ Designation Reporl- Third Amendment to Downtown TIP No. 1
Mount Prospect, IIGnoi!
Page 3
(C) Deterioration: With respect to buildings, defects including, but not limited
to major defects in the secondary building components such as doors, windows,
porches, gutters and downspouts and fascia. With respect to surface
improvements, that the condition of roadways, alleys, curbs, gutters, sidewalks,
off-street parking and surface storage areas evidence deterioration, including, but
limited to, surface cracking, crumbling, potholes, depressions, loose paving
material and weeds protruding through paved surfaces.
(D) Presence of Structures Below Minimum Code Standards: All structures that
do not meet the standards of zoning, subdivision, building, fire and other
governmental codes applicable to property, but not including housing and
property maintenance codes.
(E) Illegal Use of Individual Structures: The use of structures in violation of
applicable federal, State, or local laws, exclusive ofthose applicable to the
presence of structures below minimum code standards.
(F) Excessive Yacancies: The presence of buildings that are unoccupied or
under-utilized and that represent an adverse influence on the area because of the
frequency, extent or duration of the vacancies.
(G) Lack ofYentilation. Light. or Sanitary Facilities: The absence of adequate
ventilation for light or air circulation in spaces or rooms without windows, or that
require the removal of dust, odor, gas, smoke or other noxious airborne materials.
Inadequate natural light and ventilation means the absence of skylights or
windows for interior spaces or rooms and improper window sizes and amounts by
room area to window area ratios. Inadequate sanitary facilities refer to the
absence or inadequacy of garbage storage and enclosure, bathroom facilities, hot
water and kitchens and structural inadequacies preventing ingress and egress to
and from all rooms and units within a building.
(H) Inadequate Utilities: Underground and overhead utilities such as storm
sewers and storm drainage, sanitary sewers, water lines and gas, telephone and
electrical services that are shown to be inadequate. Inadequate utilities are those
that are: (i) of insufficient capacity to serve the uses in the redevelopment project
area; (ii) deteriorated, antiquated, obsolete or in disrepair; or (iii) lacking within
the redevelopment project area.
Tax IncrementalFinancingQualijication/Designation Reporl- ThirdAmendment to Downtown TIF No.1
Mount Prospect, Illinois
Page 4
(1) Excessive Land Coverage and Overcrowding of Structures and Community
Facilities: The over-intensive use of property and the crowding of buildings and
accessory facilities onto a site. Examples of problem conditions warranting the
designation of an area as one exhibiting excessive land coverage are: (i) the
presence of buildings either improperly situated on parcels or located on parcels
of inadequate size and shape in relation to present-day standards of development
for health and safety and (ii) the presence of multiple buildings on a single parcel.
For there to be a finding of excessive land coverage, these parcels must exhibit
one or more of the following conditions: insufficient provision for light and air
within or around buildings, increased threat of spread of fire due to the close
proximity of buildings, lack of adequate or proper access to a public right-of-way,
lack of reasonably required off-street parking or inadequate provision for loading
servIce.
(J) Deleterious Land-Use or Layout: The existence of incompatible land-use
relationships, buildings occupied by inappropriate mixed-uses or uses considered
to be noxious, offensive or unsuitable for the surrounding area.
(K) Environmental Clean-Up: The Proposed redevelopment project area has
incurred Illinois Environmental Protection Agency or United States
Environmental Protection Agency remediation costs for, or a study conducted by
an independent consultant recognized as having expertise in environmental
remediation has determined a need for the clean-up of hazardous waste, hazardous
substances or underground storage tanks required by State or federal law,
provided that the remediation costs constitute a material impediment to the
development or redevelopment of the redevelopment project area.
(L) Lack of Community Planning: The Proposed redevelopment project area was
developed prior to or without the benefit or guidance of a community plan. This
means that the development occurred prior to the adoption by the municipality of
a comprehensive or other community plan or that the plan was not followed at the
time of the area's development. This factor must be documented by evidence of
adverse or incompatible land-use relationships, inadequate street layout, improper
subdivision, parcels of inadequate shape and size to meet contemporary
development standards or other evidence demonstrating an absence of effective
community planning.
(M) The total equalized assessed value of the proposed redevelopment project
area has declined for three (3) of the last five (5) calendar years prior to the year
in which the redevelopment project area is designated, or is increasing at an
annual rate that is less than the balance of the municipality for three (3) of the last
five (5) calendar years, for which information is available or increasing at an
annual rate that is less than the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers
published by the United States Department of Labor or successor agency for three
(3) of the last five (5) calendar years prior to the year in which the redevelopment
project area is designated.

III. THE STUDY AREA
The Study Area which is located adjacent to the Village's Downtown TIP No.1 and
includes two parcels located at the northwest portion and the northeast portion of the existing
TIF district.
The northwest parcel includes a single story retail center (Central Plaza) and the northeast
parcel includes a six story office building (Bank One Building).
In evaluating the properties within the area, K.MA completed its analysis based on the
"conservation area" criteria cited in 65 ILCS 5/11-74-3(a)(1) (the "Conservation Area
Definition"). The Conservation Area Definition states that at least fifty percent (50%) of the
area's buildings must be thirty-five (35) years of age or older and there must be three (3) or more
qualification factors present. Fifty-eight percent (58%) of the Downtown TIP No.1 buildings
are over thirty-five (35) years in age including the two parcels described above, and the Proposed
Amendments contains five (5) additional qualification factors (a minimum of three (3) is
required).

IV. METHODOLOGY OF EVALUATION
In evaluating the Proposed Amendments potential qualification as a TIP District, the
following methodology was utilized:
I) Site surveys of the Proposed Amendment were undertaken by representatives from KMA.
site surveys were completed from each tract of land (based upon Sidwell blocks), within
the area.
2) Exterior evaluation of structures, noting such conditions as deterioration, obsolescence
and deleterious layout and land-use was completed. Additionally, 1998 through 2004 tax
information from the Cook County Clerk's Office, Sidwell parcel tax maps, site data,
local history (discussions with Village staff), and an evaluation of area-wide factors that
have affected the area's development (e.g., lack of community planning). KMA
reviewed the area in its entirety. Village redevelopment goals and objectives for the area
were also reviewed with Village officials. A photograph analysis of the area was
conducted and was used to aid this evaluation.
3) Existing structures and site conditions were initially surveyed only in the context of
checking, to the best and most reasonable extent available, criteria factors of specific
structures and site conditions on the parcels.
4) The Proposed Amendment was examined to assess the applicability of the different
factors, required for qualification for TIP designation under the Act. Evaluation was
made by reviewing the information and determining how each measured when evaluated
against the relevant factors. The Study Area was examined to determine the applicability
of the thirteen (13) different conservation area factors for qualification for TIP
designation under the TIP Act.

V. QUALIFICATION O~ PROPOSED RPAlFINDINGS OF ELIGIBILITY
As a result ofKMA's evaluation of each parcel in the Proposed Amendments, and.
analysis of each of the eligibility factors summarized in Section II, the following factors are
presented to support qualification of the Proposed Amendments as a "conservation area".
THRESHOLD FACTORS
1. Age (Downtown TIP No.1 and Proposed Amendments parcels)
Based upon site surveys and County assessor data fifty-eight percent (58%) (or thirty-
nine (39) out of sixty-seven (67) structures) were found to be thirty-five (35) years of age
or greater.
OTHER CONSERVATION AREA FACTORS (MUST INCLUDE THREE OR
MORE ADDITIONAL FACTORS) Note: Conservation factors aoolv onlv to
Prooosed Amendments
2. Lack of Community Planning
According to the Act, an area suffers from a lack of community planning if the area was
developed prior to or within the benefit of a community plan.
The absence of coordinated parking for sites, the lack of buffering between uses, and the
coordinated loading/unloading provisions as well as access and circulation issues
residential housing to commercial and retail sites all reinforce the fact that the area was
developed without benefit of modem, comprehensive community planning.
Also lacking until recent years has been effective and sustained economic development
plans and strategies intended to address the coordinated redevelopment of the Proposed
Amendments. This is not to necessarily say that improvements did not take place over
the years, but that they were implemented without the inclusion within the Downtown
TIP No.1 District. Amendment to the existing TIP will serve to improve overall
coordination redevelopment for these parcels.

3. Obsolescence
Obsolescence is defined as the condition or process of falling into disuse. This can also
be defined as a structure(s) that has become ill-suited for its original use.
Functional obsolescence is present at the retail center due to poor layout and building
orientation as well as its age and physical condition. Front parking is limited and internal
circulation is also limited at the frontage to a north bound direction. The office building
also exhibits characteristics of functional obsolescence due to its age and special purpose
design and characteristics. As a who let the area suffers from poor design and layout
which is manifested in several instances, one of which being a lack of (or positioning of
parking in relation to street traffic). The parking buildings lack adequate loading and
buffering provisions. Because of these factors, the area's overall usefulness and
desirability for redevelopment is significantly limited for modem day redevelopment.
Economic obsolescence is illustrated by the decline in EA V for the Proposed
Amendments in relation to the high point of 2002 (refer to Exhibit 1).
4. Deterioration of Site Improvements and Structures
Deterioration can be evidenced in major or secondary building defects. For example,
such defects include but are not limited tOt defects in building components such as
windowst porchest gutters, doors, brick, mortar and stucco. Many of the structures and
site improvements within the Proposed RP A exhibited various degrees of deterioration
which require repairs, upgrades and replacement.
Many of the parcels displayed deteriorated conditions. The conditions were characterized
by occurrences that included the following:
· Rotten wood and eaves
· Deterioration of brick and mortar
· Buckled asphalt and concrete
5. Excessive Vacancies
The retail center has exhibited vacancy factors over 60% since 2000, and the office
building has exhibited a 25% to 30% vacancy factor since 2000. Both factors are
excessive for commercial properties.
Tax Incremental Financing Qualification/ Designation Reporl- Third Amendment to Downtown TIP No. 1
Mount Prospect, IIlinoi!
Page 9
VI. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND OVERALL ASSESSMENT OF
QUALIFICATION
The following is a summary of relevant qualification findings as it relates to
potential designation ofthe Proposed Amendment by the Village as a TIF District:
1. The area is contiguous and is greater than 1 ~ acres in size, including the adj acent
Downtown TIF No. 1 area.
2. The area qualifies as a "conservation area". A more detailed analysis of the
qualification findings is outlined in this report.
3. All property in the area would substantially benefit by the proposed
redevelopment project improvements.
4. The sound growth of taxing districts applicable to the area, including the Village,
has been impaired by the factors found present in the area.
5. The area would not be subject to redevelopment without the investment of public
funds, including property tax increments.
These findings, in the judgment of KMA, provide the Village with sufficient
justification to consider designation of the Proposed Amendments as a TIF District.
The area has not benefited from coordinated planning efforts by either the public
or private sectors. There is a need to focus redevelopment efforts relating to business
attraction as well as the coordination of redevelopment efforts for modem uses. There
efforts will be important to the area's continued improvement and preservation of tax
base.
