HomeMy WebLinkAbout0410_001Minutes COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE September 24, 1991 The meeting was called to order at 7:36 p.m. by Mayor Gerald L Farley. Trustees present were Mark ' Busse, George Clowes, Paul Hoefert, and Irvana, Wilks. Trustees Timothy Corcoran and Leo Floros were absent. Also present were Village Manager John F. Dixon, Public Works Director Herbert L. Weeks, Planning &,Zoning Director David Clements, Finance Director David C. Jepson, and Assistant Finance Director Carol Widmer, three representatives of RJN Environmental, Inc., four members of the news media and three residents. II Minutes The Committee of the Whole Minutes of September 10, 1991 were accepted and filed as submitted. No citizens expressed a desire to address the Committee. Village Manager John F. Dixon stated that RJN Environmental, Inc. had been authorized to do a stormwater management study of the Wheeling Road/Euclid Road area. The study was being paid for with Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds. Mr. Dixon explained that any subsequent work that needed to be done was also eligible for funding from CDBG monies, but that only limited CDBG funds would be available for a major construction project. Mr. Dixon then introduced Randy Patchett of RJN, the project engineer for this study. Mr. Patchett explained that the study area consisted of the area bounded by Euclid on the North, Wheeling Road on the East, Kensington Road on the South and East Road on the West• East Road is a private Toad at the east edge of the Randhurst Shopping Center. He said their task was to identify the flooding problems in the study area and to make recommendations to mitigate those problems. . . . . . . . . . pv?'-�Ltj 'U'lu Luiat LIM vtur.1 ploolems luemilla" were all on private property. a Mr. Patchett presented three possible solutions to the flooding at Euclid School. The first included building a detention area at Euclid School along with a relief sewer to Cedar Lane. The estimated cost for a 25 year storm frequency was $410,000. The second alternative included building underground detention in Wheeling Road and a pumping facility to pump the stormwater to the Euclid Avenue storm sewer. The estimated cost was $1.37 million. The third alternative was to build a relief storm sewer in Wheeling Road, North to Euclid and then East to McDonald Creek. The estimated cost of the third alternative was $2.34 million. During the discussion that followed, Mr. Patchett explained that there was sufficient acreage at Euclid School for the detention area needed and that the Village already had an easement for the relief storm sewer to Cedar Lane. He also stated that the Cedar Lane storm sewer had adequate capacity to handle the release from a detention area at Euclid School. In response to a question from Trustee Clowes, Mr. Patchett said that detention is usually the most economical method of stormwater management and that it does not cause problems for the communities downstream. Trustee Wilks mentioned a NIPC study that indicated detention could cause other flooding problems. Mr. Patchett stated that there is a much greater advantage when the detention occurs upstream or midstream than when it occurs downstream and in this situation it would be the recommended solution. Trustee Hoefert asked if the detention pond on the school property would preclude the use of the property by the students. Mr. Patchett stated that it would be dry bottom basin and would only be unavailable for short periods of time. Trustee Busse asked if the 50 year protection would help solve the problems experienced by the private property owners. Mr. Patchett explained that the proposed solutions would increase capacity of the sewer system, but the necessary improvements to private property are south of the proposed detention and the stormwater drains south. As a result, the improvement at Euclid School would not directly help the private property owners. RJN recommended a 12 inch curb on the east side of East Road, regrading of selected properties and the installation of a storm sewer to solve the flooding for these properties. The estimated cost of the new curb is $40,000 and the cost of the grading and new storm sewer is $120,000. Mr. Patchett pointed out that RJN had not contacted school district officials and that the Village would need to get their approval for the proposed detention facility. Mr. Patchett also stated that they usually recommend the 25 year protection, but in this case the additional cost for a 50 year storm frequency is only $60,000. Mayor Farley polled the Committee, and it was the consensus to proceed with the 50 year protection. Mayor Farley asked the Village staff to determine the appropriate means of financing and report back to the Village Board. V Revig_w of Status of Stormwater Managg=nt Work Village Manager Dixon reported that work on the Haden Heights/Clearwater Park project had started, but work on the Stevenson/Thayer project had been delayed because of difficulty in obtaining the necessary easements. Mr. Dixon then stated that it had been expected the IEPA loan funds would be available to finance the Central/WaPella and North Main projects which were scheduled for 1992. However, it now appeared that IEPA loan funds would not be available until 1993. Mr. Dixon recommended that the Village proceed with the Central/WaPella project and use funds from the May 1991 bond issue that originally had been 2 earmarked for the Stevenson/Thayer project. Additionally, Mr. Dixon said the design work for a detention pond on the Prospect High School property is completed and construction documents will be completed shortly. Mr. Dixon recommended proceeding with this project at an estimated cost of $88,000. Randy Patchett of RJN Environmental, Inc. explained that the Village's Facility Plan will be submitted to the IEPA by the end of October and that there is an outside chance the Village could receive 1992 funding. However, he stated the Village's projects are ranked 26 and 27 with a cutoff at 25 for 1992 projects. Funds could become available if one of the higher ranked projects are cancelled. Mayor Farley stated the Village has two windows of opportunity available: very favorable construction bidding and low interest rates. He said he preferred proceeding with the Central/WaPelia and the Prospect High School projects at this time. The Committee agreed that the Village should proceed with these two projects. 91M Finance Director David Jepson introduced the Village's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ending April 30, 1991. Mr. Jepson stated that the report is addressed to the Mayor and Village Board but there are many users of the report. Some of the users include bond rating agencies, banks which invest in Village bonds, the Federal and State government, the Village Finance Commission, citizens, other municipalities and the Village Staff. He explained that the report must meet legal requirements as well as accounting and reporting requirements set forth by the Government Accounting Standards Board and the Government Finance Officers Association. Mr. Jepson stated that the report is presented in three sections: introductory, financial and statistical. The introductory section includes the transmittal letter, the government's organizational chart and a list of principal officials. The financial section includes the general purpose financial statements, the combining, individual fund and account group financial statements and certain schedules, as well as the independent auditor's report on the financial statements and schedules. The statistical section includes selected financial and demographic information, generally presented on a multiyear basis. The Statistical section which begins on page 146 of the report presents a variety of trend information. For example, there is a 10 year history of revenues and expenditures followed by property tax information. On pages 150-151 property tax rates over the last ten years for all taxing bodies in the Village of Mount Prospect are shown. Mr. Jepson pointed out that the Village's share of the total property tax has decreased from 13.6% in 1981 to 10.0% in 1990. Mr. Jepson then mentioned several of the highlights contained in the letter of transmittal. A comparison of general governmental revenues shows total revenues of $23,971,034 for 1990/91, an increase of $524,763 or 2.2% over the 1989/90 fiscal year. General governmental expenditures totaled $23,5535,31.1 for 1990/91, an increase of S 1,226,906 or 5.5% over 1989/90. Under debt administration, the Village's Aa bond rating was confirmed for the bonds sold on May 7, 1991. Mr. Jepson stated that bonds rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all standards and are generally known as high grade bonds. Under the section on Employee Pensions, Mr. Jepson said both the Police and Firefighters' Pension Plans are over 100% funded with the Police Fund at 123% and the Fire Fund at 133%. Interest income earned in all funds for the 1990/91 fiscal year totaled $4,099,795 including $3,034,881 in the pension funds. Mr. Jepson noted that interest income accounts for approximately 10% of total Village revenue. The transmittal letter also includes information regarding the economic outlook of the community and the region with an emphasis on some of the specific development projects in the community. Additionally, information is included regarding some of the accomplishments of the Village and acknowledgements to the Finance Staff and the Village Board for the fiscal policies that they had established. Mr. Jepson concluded by stating that the report is put together with the knowledge that many of the readers of the report are not familiar with the Village and the intention is to provide as much information as possible. Mayor Farley and the Trustees expressed their satisfaction with the report and commended Mr. Jepson for the effort put into it. owns = �* ..our M The Village Manager reported that bids for the Police and Fire Building would be received on September 25, and it was expected that a special meeting would be called for October 8, 1991 to award the bid. VIII Other Business There was no other business brought to the Committee. The Committee of the Whole meeting adjourned at 10:43 p.m. DCJ/srn 4 Respectfully Submitted, David C. Jepson, Finance Director Village of Mount Prospect Mount Prospect, Illinois INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR GERALD L FARLEY AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES FROM: VILLAGE MANAGER DATE: OCTOBER 4, 1991 SUBJECT: STATUS OF MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITY FOR KENSINGTON BUSINESS CENTER As you will recall in April of this year, the Annexation Agreement expired with Opus for the Kensington Business Center. There are several items that have been reviewed over the last two years between staff and members of Opus' management team. There is still one outstanding issue in regards to the original Annexation Agreement and it is the light at Feehanville Drive and Wolf Road. Opus has indicated that they have an obligation for that light since the warrants were met before the expiration of the Annexation Agreement. In fact, they placed conduit under Wolf Road during reconstruction of that Road so that the Road would not be opened up at a later date when the light was installed. It is my understanding that the final engineering work for the light is being worked on by Opus and should be completed hopefully by the end of October. Opus has indicated that they intend on moving ahead with the light once the issue on costs for oversizing of water and sewer lines within the Center is resolved with the Village. We have had correspondence concerning the amount that the Village has paid to Opus and have indicated that we are "ling to sit down and review the final payout with Opus in the near future. As of this point, they have agreed with the amount we have paid for Phase 1. The concern is whether there was a request by the Village for oversizing or a requirement because of the usage for the oversizing with the last two Phases. The maintenance areas that have been discussed by the Owners Association of Kensington with staff generally are four areas: The first one, which seems to be of major concern to the Owners Association, are the entry markers and signs. I draw your attention to Ordinance #3542 which was passed in 1985 and is attached. This Ordinance allows the monument signs and landscaping to be placed in Village right-of-way. It is also very clear that the indemnification agreement entered into makes it the responsibility of the owners and successors to do perpetual maintenance for the sign as well as landscaping. Should the Village Board wish to consider a modification to this, there would have to be an additional Ordinance passed. I also bring to your attention the policy that was established about three years ago concerning maintenance of monuments in single-family subdivisions. Our policy has been that we will attempt to repair, when possible, and if there is an accident that causes damage to the monuments, we will go after the individual that damaged it if at all possible. If we are not able to find the person who damaged the monument, we will put it in a safe condition and if we are not able to, we will just remove it. In many cases, some of those monuments have some ornate brick -work and/or metal fabrication which would cost considerable funds to reinstall. The maintenance of the landscaping and grass areas around the monuments could be done under our landscape contract for approximately $2,500 per year. The second area is parkway maintenance. As of this point in time, each one of the individual owners of property have been maintaining the parkways similar to residential owners in town where the mow the lawn out to the street. We would anticipate that this would be the response that would continue in the future. The Village does not have the Public Works staff to handle this work. If the center islands in the cul-de-sacs are included, the cost would increase to around 89,000 per year. The third area is bike trails. It is clear that the Village has the maintenance responsibility for the bike trails. In the original agreement, it was suggested that the Park District would have an opportunity to take over the bike trails in this area, however, they have not and do not wish to. The Village then came in and took over the maintenance responsibilities as well as the foot bridges. We have maintained the bike/jogging trails by patching when needed and also repairing and replacing sections of the trail that has asphalt that has deteriorated. We would also anticipate doing maintenance repair on foot bridges. One of the areas that we have not done in the past was the snow removal on these trails. Because of the length and configuration of it, it would be a very expensive venture for us to be involved in snow removal or to hire a contractor for snow removal of the bike trails. Snow removal has not been done in the past by any party. The last area is the pond maintenance. The Annexation Agreement indicates that the Village would handle the maintenance of the depths of the ponds which means that we would maintain the inflow and outflow structures in the ponds and make sure the depth of the ponds are adequate to take care of drainage from stormwater. The Annexation Agreement also spoke to wells that were placed by Opus on the property which are used to circulate the water to make sure there is clean water in the pond system. Those wells had electrical hook-ups directly to individual buildings. It is my understanding that in some cases, there have been agreements among people who surrounded a particular pond that they would share in the cost with the owner who had the electrical hook-up for the wells. The well system was put in place in order to keep clear water going through the ponds. When the well system is turned off because of an owner wishing to cut back on electrical costs, it may cause an algicide to form on the pond which then means there is a need for maintenance of algicide removal to be placed in the pond system. We would suggest that this algicide be connected with the owner's responsibility along with the operation of the well. We all share a concern that the ponds be handled appropriately and I would suggest that it might be in the Village's interest as well as the owner's interest that we have an expert consultant in pond maintenance brought in in the beginning and I would further suggest that the Village pay for this cost to establish the appropriate maintenance for the ponds.

Notary (Notary Seal) VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECY PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT Mount Prospect, Illinois TO; JOHN F. DIXON, VILLAGE MANAGER W— FROM: DAVID M. CLEMENTS, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING AND ZONING DATE: SEPTEMBER 2S, 1991 SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE HOUSING AFFORDABILITY STRATEGY (CHAS) Attached you will find a copy of the Village of Mount Prospect's Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS), The CHAS is the Village of Mount Prospect's affordable housing plan for the next five years and it is a federal requirement of Community Development Block Grant recipients. The CHAS has four major elements. The first is the CHAS development and citizen participation process. Staff conducted a very extensive participation process this past summer in order to identify affordable housing needs in Mount Prospect. On July 10, the Plan Commission conducted its first public bearing to gather citizen input into this topic. This was followed by a survey form sent to over 30 organizations involved in housing in our community. Finally, the Plan Commission held a second hearing on September 18 to review the CHAS and recommend to the Village Board its acceptance. The second major element of the CHAS is the development of a community profile. Much of the information in this section was obtained through the testimony at our public hearings, the survey information we received from numerous organizations, and U.S. Census data. The community profile discusses affordable housing needs for both owners and renters, the housing market in Mount Prospect, the level of housing assistance now being provided to Mount Prospect residents, homeless needs, housing and supportive needs of the mentally ill and disabled, the need for affordable housing for low income individuals who work in Mount Prospect, and the public policies that affect housing affordability and availability. Based on the community profile, the third major section states the Village's five year strategy for implementing its housing affordability plans. In summary, the CHAS identifies five priorities. These are: 1. To provide new construction housing for elderly low income residents by a maximum of 50 units of new HUD assisted elderly housing. 2. To address the special needs of elderly low income and very low income residents in various housing settings by encouraging the creation of more shared senior housing, continuing to rehabilitate senior citizen homes through the Village's 0% Interest Housing Rehabilitation Loan Program, and by encouraging senior citizens to participate in the Section 8 existing housing assistance payments vouchers and certificates programs operated by the Housing Authority of Cook County. John Fulton Dixon Page Two September 25, 1991 To provide housing opportunities for first-time low income homeowners. Achieving this priority will require the Village of Mount Prospect to enter into a consortium with Des Plaines, Arlington Heights, and Schaumburg, in order to be eligible for new HOME Program funds. 4. To promote a financial rental assistance program throughout theVillage by encouraging owners of rental property in Mount Prospect to participate in the Section 8 existing housing assistance payments programs and other HUD/CDBG supported financial assistance programs for the rehabilitation of apartments. 5. To provide financial assistance in the purchase or rehabilitation of housing for the mentally ill by assisting the National Alliance for„ the Mentally Ill in purchasing five residential homes over the next five years in Mount Prospect. The fourth and final section includes the Village's one year plan, monitoring plan, definitions and certifications. In essence, the one year plan simply divides up the five year strategy into one year manageable parts. It includes seeking a not-for-profit developer to submit a 50 unit senior citizen housing application to HUD, promoting the senior shared housing program and Section 8 existing housing assistance payment vouchers or certificates programs, discussing the formation of a CHAS consortium with the Arlington Heights, Schaumburg and Des Plaines, and assisting the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill and purchasing or rehabilitating one home in Mount Prospect. I would encourage you to call me if you have any questions regarding the Village's CHAS. This item will be discussed during the Committee of the Whole meeting on Tuesday, October 8, and will be presented to the full Village Board during your regular meeting on October 15 for your approval.

GLF:hg Enclosure 1 Sincerely, GERALD L. FARLEY, Mayor CHAS DEVELOPMENT AND CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PROCESS Mount Prospect began it's Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) with a review of the interim rule published in the Federal Register on February 4, 1991. In June of 1991, staff began assembling CHAS information from three basic sources: The United States Census of 1980 and 1990, Mount Prospect's Three -Year Housing Assistance Plan of 1988, and housing related data from experts in the field. On July 10, 1991, the Village of Mount Prospect Plan Commission held a CHAS hearing in order to receive expert testimony and comments from the public regarding the need for affordable housing in the village. As a result of this public hearing process, information was gathered from the following: Alliance For The Mentally III Barrington Area League of Women Voters CEDA Northwest Centennial Apartments (Elderly Subsidized Housing) Cook County Health Department Countryside Bank Evangelical Health Systems First Chicago Bank of Mount Prospect First National Bank of Mount Prospect Glenkirk (Home for the Developmentally Disabled) Housing Authority of the County of Cook Leadership Council for Metropolitan Open Communities League of Women Voters of Arlington Heights/Mount Prospect/Buffalo Grove Mid -City National Bank Mount Prospect Human Services Division Northeastern Illinois Plan Commission Northwest Community Services Inc. Northwest Housing Partnership Inc. Public Action to Deliver Services (PADS) Resource Center for the Elderly State of Illinois Suburban Area Agency on Aging Talman Home Federal Savings & Loan Assn. On August 9, 1991, Village staff sent a survey form to affordable housing related organizations in Mount Prospect and Cook County. The form asked each organization to identify what housing services they provide and what if any federal housing assistance programs they would be applying for in the next five years. This information was also incorporated into the attached Village of Mount Prospect Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy. A second public hearing was held on September 18, 1991 before the Plan Commission to receive public comments and Commission recommendation for the final Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy document. The Village Board then gave final approval of the document during their October 4, 1991 meeting. Tllff,OF 11,01i'Vt PROSPECT Intrgd1glion: This document represents the Village of Mount Prospect's housing affordability plan for the next five years. The Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) will be divided into five sections. These are an Introduction, Community Profile, Five -Year Strategy, One -Year Plan, Monitoring Plan and CHAS Development and Citizen Participation Process. The Village's CHAS is a new planning document required by the Cranston - Gonzales National Affordable Housing Act and replaces the Village's current housing assistance plan (HAP). An approved CHAS is required of all states and units of local government that receive funding under certain HUD programs, including Community Development Block Grants. The CHAS will estimate the housing assistance needs of its very low income, low income and moderate income families, including the needs of homeless individuals and families; assess the availability of unassisted housing, assisted housing and other resources for addressing these needs; develop a strategy for meeting housing assistance needs over the next five years; specify annually how federal resources will be utilized to provide affordable housing for needy families and individuals and identify the Village's CHAS monitoring process. Mount Prospect's earliest housing plans took the form of zoning and comprehensive plan ordinances. In 1978, the issue of providing for the housing needs of lower-income residents was added to the Village's plans with HUD's approval of our first of 13 HAP's. Since 1978, Mount Prospect has been pleased to have benefitted from the HAP process with the construction of 412 subsidized senior housing units, the rehabilitation of 175 single family houses and 92 rental/multi-family residential homes and with many of it's residents having received Section 8 Existing Housing Assistance Payment to help with rents. This document is intended to provide a strategy for furthering the Village's efforts in helping needy residents in finding and utilizing affordable housing in the community. The following CHAS information was obtained from the 1980 and 1990 Census, studies and reports from the State of Illinois and North Eastern Illinois Plan Commission, and testimony and reports received as a result of a CHAS public hearing conducted by the Village of Mount Prospect Plan Commission on July 10, 1991. Populatiog Profile: The 1990 Census indicated that the Village's population is 53,170. This represents a one percent increase from the 1980 Census figure of 52,634. Data from the 1980 Census incorporated in Mount Prospect's 1988 Three Year HAP notes that of the 1324 low income renter households in Mount Prospect, 721 had very low incomes and 603 had low incomes. We have no similar rental data from the 1990 Census yet. There were 6063 total renting households in the Village in 1980. Of the 12,706 homeowner occupied units in 1980 in the Village, the Census shows none of them were occupied by low income or very low income households. Village CDBG rehabilitation loan experience indicates that there are lower income owner occupied housing units in Mount Prospect, perhaps as many as 250. In the past ten year Mount Prospect has experienced a small but significant change in it's racial and ethnic make-up. For instance, the number of Asian and Pacific Islander residents grew to 3,417, up from 1,490 in 1980. The Black residential population grew from 331 to 606 during the same ten year period. The increase in the Hispanic Origin population went from 1,225 in 1980 to 3,411 in 1990. The American Indian population also rose over the same time period from 52 to 73. See the attached Minority / Racial Low Income Map for the census tract areas of concentrations of minorities. General Housing Needs and InveLitgry 6,isessme : The number of housing units in Mount Prospect increased by 1,436 over the past ten years, from 19,513 in 1980 to 20,949 in 1990 according to the Census Bureau. Almost all of that increase was in owner occupied homes. In 1980 there were 12,706 owner -occupied units. That number rose to 14,009 by 1990. Over the same time period, rental units increased by 209 units, from 6063 in 1980 to 6272 in 1990. At the time of the 1990 Census, the vacancy rate for homeowners was 0.8% while for rental -occupied units the rate was 5.8%. Staff's analysis of the housing market in Mount Prospect has concentrated on cost, housing conditions, overcrowding and availability. The biggest housing problem in Mount Prospect centers on cost. This will be discussed in the following paragraphs. In general, most housing units are in good condition and should remain so at least for the near future. Mount Prospect property values are fairly high and staff believes it does not make economic sense for property owners to allow these expensive assets to deteriorate. The most serious housing conditions are in the south end of the Village in apartment complexes on Algonquin and Busse Roads. We would note that overcrowding is rarely a problem. Some isolated cases exist, primarily in rental units. Rental units are readily available, as has been verified by information contained in the preceding paragraph. The cost of owning m single family detached home in Mount Prospect major problem for a low income or very low income household. Information gathered from public testimony indicates that such homes are now typically selling from mlow end of$1l4.[00.00upand that atleast one middle income household kin to purchase such mhome found their $4G.[0U.00annual income inadequate. With very little buildable land remaining and a low vacancy rate, there appears little chance that single family detached home prices will drop. Condominium and bownhomnaownership oeenne more likely for low income and very low income households. Staff estimates these units may start around *90'O{0.00. Such housing represents a good opportunity for first time homeowners bzlive inMount Prospect. The Village encourages home ownership in such areas and throughout th Village as a source of good housing and as a source of accumulating equity for finding future housing. The market demand for rental units in Mount Prospect over the past tem years Homeownership and renting in Mount Prospect pose serious concerns and cost burdens for low income, very low income and moderate income households. For instance, a low income household of two with an income of $27,750.00 (HUD Section 8 Income Umit, 80% of median), the household would have to pay approximately $1,000.00 a month mortgage payment to purchase a 2 bedroom home in Mount Prospect. If one assumes an additional $200.00 in utility costs, the household's total monthly housing cost would be $1,200.00 or $14,400.00 a year. With a take home pay of two thirds -of the gross pay, the households net annual income would be $18,315.00. For this household to purchase this home, the owners would pay 78% of their net take home pay for all housing costs or 52% of their gross income. Very low income home buyers with an annual gross income of $13,875.00 ( 50% of median income) could not pay for the home with all their income. A moderate income households with a yearly gross income of $32,950.00 (95% of median income) would utilize 66% of their net annual pay and 43% of their gross annual income for all housing expenses. for some, would be a little easier. With a median rent of $56I0 a month and utility bills of $200.00 a month, the median total monthly rental housing cost would be $764.00 or $8952.00 annually. For the low income household of two with a combined income of $27,750.00, the household would pay 32% of their gross income and 49% of their net take home pay for housing. The same household with a very low income would utilize 51% of their gross pay and 78% of their net for the same rental housing. A moderate income household of two at the 95% level of the median income would use 27% oftheir gross pay and 41%pftheir net for the same housing. There are a number of federally i d rental programs currently operating i Mount Prospect. The Housing Authority of Cook County reports there are presently 24 families and 17 elderly, disabled, or handicapped residents benefiting from the Authority's Section 8 Program. Centennial Apartments and Huntington Apartments are providing 412 units of senior subsidized housing. Both are currently full with a two to two and a half- year waiting list. Federal Preference Rules allow for individuals living in substandard housing, those involuntarily displaced, and persons paying more than 50% of their income for rent and utilities to receive priority in access to subsidized housing. At the current time, Centennial Apartments is only receiving applications from the preference list. Mount Prospect's Three Year HAP |n1Q88showed that the number one housing need stthat time was new elderly housing with rental subsidies for our lower income senior citizens. This need remains and was confirmed by testimony from Centennial Needs:Apartments and Evangelical Health Systems during the CHAS public hearing on July 10, 1991. Other testimony from the Housing Authority of Cook County, Suburban Area Agency on Aging and the Resource Center for the Elderly confirmed a need for senior shared housing and rental assistance programs for the very low income. Homeless Hgu$ing The homeless population in yN¢urd Prospect i estimated to be rather small. The 1990 Census counted 13 homeless individuals, all living in group quarters. Alocal volunteer shelter organization (Public Action boDeliver Services (P.A.D.S.) which provides evening shelter during the |d nth of the year for the northwest suburbs, has reported housinQuptoG0ind(viUua|s anight this past year. We have not been able to verify from any source the actual number of homeless people and families in Mount Prospect nor their racial or ethnic statue. The "Near Ho,no|aae^ estimated population is approximately 20 to 100 but staff has not been able to verify this number. Othgr Housing and Supportive Housing Needs: Expert testimony received from the Alliance for the Mentally III and Glenkirk (homes for the developmentally disabled) have revealed a need for additional group homes and services for their clients. The Alliance for the Mentally III has reported a need for 10 new group homes in Mount Prospect over the next five year with supportive services to begin providing housing and services to estimated 265 individuals in need. Glenkirk reported the agency currenty has a 10 year waiting list for housing and services. In addition to housing, other services for these special needs populations include transportation, counseling, therapy and support systems. Other Hou�jpg Needs: A number of agencies and planning organizationsidentified a pressing need for affordable housing to meet the needs of the 'Working poor* in Mount Prospect. Glenkirk noted they employ 300 people, many of whom are entry level direct care workers, cooks, housekeepers, food service workers and maintenance workers. In 1989, 40% of them had to drive more than 15 miles to get to work because of the cost of housing. Studies performed by the North Eastern Illinois Plan Commission indicate there is a job -housing imbalance in the northwest suburbs. Housing rehabilitation assistance is also needed for primarily single parent households, the elderly and homes with disabled household members in both owner occupied and rental units. Our current [|.D.8.G.funded rehabilitation programsare, at this time, meeting this need but expanded funding inthe near future will beneeded mathe communities housing stock ages. Since Mount Prospect is almost entirely built-up, there will not be significant changes inhousing needs orinventory inthe next five years. Publig Policies Affecting Housing Affordgbilb and Availabift: The Village's review of government policies that affect housing centers on taxing policies, land use controls, building codes and fees. We did not look into growth policies or the return on residential investment since Mount Prospect has no active growth limit policies (11 -he Village is entirely encircled by other municipalities) and no local rent control or other return on investment Mount Prospect's local government has mtaxing rate ofG1cents $100.00 which represents about 10% cfthe total My tax rate of $9.12 per $100.00. This rate is comparable t#other communities |nthe area. Local school districts receive approximately GO%ofthese taxes. Mount Prospect ielocated inCook County, the only county in Illinois to tax residential property etolower rate than businesses and industries. Hanidendsd property here is sxed at 169& of market value. The commercial and industrial rates are at 38Y& and 36%. All other counties in the state have o single tax rate of 339& for properties. This does not mean that actual residential taxes are lower, for the current property tax multiplier is1.9S4Gper *1OO.00. Surrounding counties have multipliers ofjust over 1.0. Village land use and zoning ordinances allow residential units to be occupied by up to five unrelated individuals or up to eight unrelated individuals in group homes. Group homes are permitted by ordinance and need no special use approval. The Zoning Code does not permit multiple uses on a single property. Thus, housing units are not permitted above businesses nor are "granny" units allowed on residential lots. The minimum lot width for detached residential lots is 65' and 75' on corner lots. The Village Development Code notes that all residential streets be built 31' back to back of curb and that storm water detention facilities be built on all residential developments exceeding 2 acres in size and/or receiving a lot coverage variation. The building code reflects both national professional construction standards as well as state and federal government requirements. Some of these do drive up the cost of housing. For instance, federal handicap accessibility standards now state that new housing must be convertible for handicap use. Thus, plumbing must be installed at standard heights as well as adjustable for lower handicap use. Halls and restroom must be wide enough to be able to be converted to meet handicap standards and wheelchair use. Safety related code items also negatively effect housing affordability. For instance, more inexpensive pipe material, like plastic, is not permitted because of the toxic smoke hazard it may present during a fire and the materials potential health problems when used for drinking water. Village fire codes require residential buildings over 5000 S.F. to have fire sprinkling systems. Mandatory fire wall construction for multiple unit construction also increases construction cost. The electrical code prohibits the use of Romex and other more inexpensive wiring and notes that all wiring be placed in conduit. Developer fees are in the form of permit fees, development fees and cost related to letters of credit. Permit fees cover the cost of structural, plumbing, and electrical inspections as well as tapping on to sewer and water utilities. Development fees include a one time donation to the Village to cover immediate and future needs of the residents of the development. Letters of Credit are used to ensure that approved developments are constructed according to Code and approved plans. ` Minority Racial Low Income -.concentration Map 8 0 CHAS Table 1 A Housing Assistance Needs of Low & Moderate Income Households Mame a Ji. sdiO.o .) or Cott U., Villaqe of Mount U.s.

The public funds will be received under the National Affordable Housing Act. These priorities are designed to compliment the Comprehensive Plan of the Village of Mount Prospect, assist residents in finding decent and affordable housing in all residential areas of the Village, address the needs of special populations in the community and carry out the purposes and meet the goals of the Act. Mount Prospect has identified three priority needs it will address in the next five years based on the data and needs documented in the Community Profile section of this document. These are: senior citizen housing with rental assistance, housing for first time home buyers and employees working in Mount Prospect and assisted rental housing. The strategy for the implementation of each follows. $enigr Citizen Housing with Rental Assistance,. SgniorHousing RehabilitLtign Assistance and Subsidized Rental Asgistance: This priority was noted after a review of housing needs shown in the Three Year HAP of 1988, CHAS public hearing testimony and reports and the 1990 Census which reported an increase in elderly population over the age of 60 in Mount Prospect from 11.38% of the population in 1980 to 17.64% in 1990. Mount Prospect will seek a Section 202 Non -Profit Development and consider development of a site near the old Public Works building. Prioft 1: To provide new construction housing for elderly low income residents. Five Year Results: 50 units of new Section 202 or similar program units with a Section 8 Set a Side. Institutional Capacity: Village staff has not been involved in Section 202 Housing but does have needed site planning experience. There are a number of potential sites for the project. One site is owned by the Village. The Village is ready to contract with an experienced Section 20 developer. Section 202 funding with Section 8 program should continue to be available but funding of projects is on a competitive basis. Village C.D.B.G funds may be used to assist in this project. Service agencies and organizations will be utilized in providing needed services to residents. Priority 2: To address the special needs of elderly low income and very low income residents in various housing settings. Five Year Results: 50 units of newly created shared senior housing. 20 units of rehabilitated senior homes. 20 units of Section 8 Existing Housing Assistance Payment Vouchers or 23 Certificates. Institutional Capacity: The Mount Prospect Human Services Division is knowledgeable in shared housing programs and will work with work with the Planning and Zoning staff in promoting them with the Suburban Area Agency on Aging, Resource center for the Elderly, and other senior citizen organizations. Mount Prospect's C.D. B.G program has offered housing rehabilitation loans and subsidies for the past 10 years and will continue to offer these to very low and low income resident, including elderly homeowners. First Time L2Y Income Homebuyers Assist n a ce: As was noted in the Community Profile section, it is becoming increasing difficult for low income residents to buy and live in owner occupied housing in Mount Prospect. The Village of Mount Prospect believes that workers whose jobs are in the Village should be able to find affordable housing in Mount Prospect. Current homeowners can normally move into Mount Prospect using the equity income received from the sale of their home. First time purchasers have difficulty with downpayments and the monthly mortgage payment. Priority 3: To provide housing opportunities for first time low income homebuyers. Five Year Results: Assist 20 households in becoming first time homebuyers. Institutional Capacity: Funding would come from the Home Investment Partnership Act (HOME). Year one of the CHAS will be used to investigate the possibility of forming a consortium of adjacent CDBG Entitlement communities in order to be directly eligible for HOME funds the following year and organize needed resources in the community. Funding availability is critical to achieving this priority. C.D.B.G. funds may also be used to bring project homes up to Housing Quality Standards (HOS) and Village Code. Local banks have become involved in the general affordability issue and will be asked to participate in providing assistance. Rental 6gsistance for Ygry Low Income and Low Income Residents: One of the major housing problems in Mount Prospect is a lack of rental financial assistance payments for very low income and low income residents. As was mentioned in the Community Profile narrative, Mount Prospect is almost entirely built-up. The best opportunity for providing rental assistance will be through existing rental properties using the Section 8 Existing Housing Assistance Payments Program of vouchers and certificates. The effort should be disbursed throughout the community so there are no concentration of low income or minority households in any neighborhood. Priorily 4: To promote a financial rental assistance program throughout the Village. 24 Five Year Results: Assist the Housing Authority of Cook County in providing tenant based vouchers and certificates to low income and very low income Mount Prospect renters. Institutional Capacity: Mount Prospect has contact with and knowledge of all rental properties in it's corporate boundaries through the Landlord / Tenant Ordinance. Staff will contact all rental property owner's or managers and inform them of the benefits of the Section 8 Existing Housing Assistance Payments Program. HUD C.D.B.G funds may be used in concert with those of private lenders and others to help rehabilitate these units. Priori : To provide financial assistance in the purchase or rehabilitation of housing for the mentally ill. Five Year Results: Assist the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill in purchasing or rehabilitating 5 residential homes for use as community residence for the mentally ill. Institutional Capacity: Mount Prospect intends to cooperate with the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill organization in the financing of the purchase or rehabilitation of single family homes in Mount Prospect to be used as 5 supervised community residences for the mentally ill. Funding for the project will be from the combined resources of Mount Prospect's C.D.B.G. funds, the State of Illinois Mental Health Department and corporate donations. 0- Coopqrgltion with the State of Illingis & Use of Low Ing Housing Tax Credli : Housing data received from the State of Illinois has been utilized in the preparation of this housing plan and a copy of the plan will be sent to the State when adopted. HOME funds will be requested from the State in fiscal year 1993 if Mount Prospect is unable to form a CHAS consortium next year. Village staff has been in contact with the Illinois Housing Development Authority regarding uses of the Low Income Housing Tax Credit program operated out of the offices of the Illinois Housing Development Authority and will work with the Northwest Housing Partnership program and potential developers in utilizing this financing technique in Mount Prospect. N9 Barriers to Affordable Housing: The high cost of Mount Prospect's housing is primarily due to it's location in the Greater Chicago Area, close proximity to major highway systems and O'Hare International Airport, and the availability of the Chicago Northwestern Commuter Rail System that links Mount Prospect to the Chicago Loop. Staff has reviewed Village development requirements and believes, on a whole, they do not pose major impediments to achieving affordable housing. Even so, Mount Prospect is actively involved in finding ways to address the housing affordability issue. For example, recently the Village's Zoning Ordinance was amended to permit households of up to 8 persons with developmental disabilities, and paid staff, to occupy a single dwelling unit. Staff is currently in the process of updating the Zoning and Development Ordinances and will be recommending to the Village Board approval of, among other things, a new Downtown zoning district which will permit mixed uses. Staff will pay special attention in our review of the zoning ordinance to insuring that it does not promote concentrations of low income households but does affirmatively address housing affordability as well as health and safety issue. There are no pending tax or fee increase request by the Village. Such future request will be reviewed, in part, as to their effect on the affordability of housing in the Village. 26 CHAS Table 3 Priorities for Assistance 5 -Year Plan U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Office of Community Planning and Development Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) Name of Jum on(s) or Consortium; Five Year Period: (enter fiscal yrs.)
