The studies and analysi� have been undertaken to determine whether the downtown qualifies for Tax Increment Financing, There are two approaches to qualify an area under the Illinois Statutes.- Blight *r Conservation, A total of fourteen factors have been analyzed for this study. Although different factors must be present to 0 at, I ,kualify under each method the public activi les perni'tted are the same once the area has been qualified, The investigation found that the entire study area cannot qualif ,fir Conservation area. If a Conservation Justification were Used, buildings north of Central and south of Northwest Highway would be excluded., If a combination of Conservation and Blighte class if icat ions was used the ent 'ire downtown could be included I a TIF District and, therefore be eligible for redevelopment utide the legislation, I The report also addresses the options available to the Board should they decide to pursue''TIF,, Tax Increment Financing can b instituted by designating one large area and scheduling smaller areas for redevelopment or designating each redevelopment area separately. The staff will also present their recommendation on the designation and area -for TIF before the Committee as well as discuss in detail the issues and options available.

That there exists in many municipaiities within the State bliahted, and areas . 2. That the eradication of blighted areas and treatment and improvement of conservation areas by redevelopment projects 0 a - is essential to the public interest. These f i'nd3".ngs were made on the bas is that the presence of bl ight or conditions which lead to blight 'is detrimental to the safety, health, welfare and morals of the public. Furthermore, this relationships considered to be pi , Mr finding that there 'i's a presence or cond "it -ions wh ich lead to bl ight, as defined 'in the Act, 'is equivalent to a finding that 'it 'is detrimental to the public. Thuse in adopting this Act, the General Assembly intended to give municipal ities broad powers 'in order to eradicate blighted conditions and prevent new ones from occurring. To ensure that the exercise of these powers 'is proper and 'in the public interestr the Act also specifies certain requirements a ft whicn must be met before a municipality can proceed with implementing a redevelopment project, One of these requirements is that the municipality must demonstrate that each prospective redevelopment project qualifies either as a *blighted area" or as a "conservat ion areall with 'in the def 'in iti"ons f or each set f orth in the Act 14n, Section 11-74.4-3). These def t ions are paraphrased below., A blighted area may be e ither "improved or vacant., If the area is improved (e.g., with industrial,�,commercial and residential 0 buildings or ismprovements)f a finding may be made that the area is bl ighted because of the presence of a comb inat 'ion of five or more of the following fourteen factors, .-e • Age (no criteria specified). • Dilapidation. 0 Obsolescence. Deteriorat 'ion. Illegal use of individual structuress Presence of structures below minimum code standards. Excessive vacancies. Overcrowding of structures and community facilities.
