Information
Tur Ventures LLC ("Developer,") is the owner of the properties at 1200 E. Algonquin Road and
1200 Dempster Street, which together comprise the Mount Prospect Technology Campus
Planned Unit Development (PUD). On October 28, 2025, the Village Board approved Ordinance
No. 6811, granting an amendment to the original PUD (Ordinance No. 6634) to allow
development of a two -building data center campus totaling approximately 2.17 million square
feet, along with related electrical substations, mechanical yards, and infrastructure
improvements.
As part of the PUD approval, the Developer agreed to fund and/or construct certain off -site
public improvements necessary to support the project and benefit the surrounding area. These
improvements are addressed in the proposed Public Improvements Agreement.
Discussion
The Public Improvements Agreement delineates the respective responsibilities of the Village
and Developer regarding the design, construction, and financing of off -site public
improvements associated with the project.
Key provisions include:
Village Improvements (Village Responsibility):
1. Algonquin Road Right -of -Way Improvements: construction of a multi -use path,
street lighting, and crosswalk/signal upgrades at Algonquin Road and Linneman Roads.
Staff recommends the Village take on these responsibilities so that they are completed
as part of the larger Algonquin Road Bike Path and Lighting Improvements project
currently underway in partnership with the Illinois Department of Transportation
(IDOT). The Village has secured a federal grant to fund a majority of the project, being
awarded more than $2.3 million from the Congestion Mitigation &Air Quality (CMAQ)
Program.
2. Park Improvements: construction of a splash pad and related improvements at
Mount Prospect Park District's RecPlex, in partnership with the Park District under a
separate intergovernmental agreement.
Developer Improvements (Developer Responsibility):
1. Off -site public improvements shown on the approved plans that are not designated as
the Village improvements (e.g., sidewalk and street lighting improvements proximate to
the site on Linneman and Dempster Roads).
2. Developer remains responsible for standard Development Sureties associated with
these improvements.
Developer Contributions
1. $1,000,000 for Algonquin Road Right -of -Way Improvements.
2. $1,,200,,000 toward the Park Improvements at the RecPlex.
3. An additional $800,,000 contribution towards the Park Improvements, payable two
years after the initial park contribution.
Timing of Payments
Within 60 days after both (1) securing construction financing for the first data center building
and (2) receiving a Village building permit for that building, the Developer must deposit the
required contributions with the Village. The second payment towards the Park Improvements
would be due two years after the initial payment, totaling $3,,000,000 in Developer
Contributions toward public improvements in the area.
Use and Accounting
The Village will hold all contributions in escrow, provide accounting upon completion of each
improvement, and return any unused funds upon project completion or after five years.
Financial Impact
The Village will manage and disperse the $3,000,000 in Developer contributions to fund the
improvements. The Village's participation in the Park District's RecPlex improvements will be
governed by a separate intergovernmental agreement.
Alternatives
1. Approval of the Resolution authorizing execution of the Public Improvements Agreement
between the Village of Mount Prospect and Tur Ventures, LLC for off -site public improvements
related to the Mount Prospect Technology Campus
2. Action at the discretion of the Village Board.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the Resolution authorizing execution of the Public
Improvements Agreement between the Village of Mount Prospect and Tur Ventures, LLC for
off -site public improvements related to the Mount Prospect Technology Campus.
