OLD BUSINESS None 8. NEW BUSINESS 8.1 1st reading of AN ORDINANCE OF THE VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECT, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS APPROVING THE SOUTH MOUNT PROSPECT TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA REDEVELOPMENT PLAN AND PROJECT 3 Director of Community Development Bill Cooney provided an overview of the proposed South Mount Prospect Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District and the accompanying ordinances presented for approval. Mr. Cooney stated staff, Board and residents have discussed the proposed TIF at several public meetings and tonight is the culmination of staff's efforts to officially establish the South Mount Prospect Redevelopment Project Area for the South Mount Prospect TIF. The proposed boundary area of the South Mount Prospect TIF is bound by Dempster on the North, Busse on the West, Route 83 on the East and Oakton on the South. The area includes 505 acres consisting primarily of commercial and industrial properties but also includes five (5) residential properties. Mr. Cooney stated the Village annexed much of the subject project area in 2016 and 2017 from unincorporated Cook County. Mr. Cooney added the Village Board approved the South Mount Prospect Plan in 2020. The plan included a recommendation to review economic development programs to invest in the area; TIF was listed as a top option to accomplish this goal. With Board approval, the Village began the process of evaluating the area by hiring consultant SB Friedman to conduct a TIF feasibility study in October of 2021. The feasibility study was completed and shared with the public in February, 2022. The South Mount Prospect TIF received unanimous support from interested taxing districts at the March 22, 2022 meeting of the Joint Review Board. Mr. Cooney discussed the many benefits of implementing a TIF district. Most importantly, it provides a development tool for the Village to reinvest and redevelop south Mount Prospect. Proposed improvements to public infrastructure includes roads, water mains and storm water that will benefit the area. Proposed projects include a new Community Connections Center and affordable housing development. A TIF supports the long-term increase in equalized assessed value (EAV), reducing property taxes for all other taxpayers in the Village. Mr. Cooney stated the three (3) ordinances must be approved in the order presented per State statute as follows: 1) Approve the South Mount Prospect Tax Increment Financing District 2) Designate the South Mount Prospect Tax Increment Financing District Redevelopment Project Area and 3) Adopt Tax Increment Financing for the South Mount Prospect Tax Increment Financing District Mr. Cooney stated staff supports the South Mount Prospect TIF. SB Friedman consultant Geoff Dickinson was present to answer questions from the Board. Mr. Cooney_ provided the following in response to questions from the Board: • The April 28, 2022 revision was updated to reflect the Building Code updates as of February 2022 and is the only technical change to the Plan • Boundaries of the approved TIF cannot be expanded without a new TIF process • Adjustments to the TIF budget exceeding $145 million would require an amendment to the TIF Mayor Hoefert concluded the discussion by stating his support for the South Mount Prospect TIF and added the Village has used TIF as an effective tool, especially in the downtown area. Mayor Hoefert stated south Mount Prospect offers a wide range of opportunities for redevelopments and reinvestment. Mayor Hoefert reiterated his comments made at the April 19, 2022 Village Board meeting, stating it is not the intent or desire of the Village to displace any resident from their home. 4 No further discussion.
