4 05/05/15 Agenda Item No. V.A. VILLAGE OF CARPENTERSVILLE 1200 L. W. Besinger Drive Carpentersville, Illinois Village President Ed Ritter Village Clerk Therese M. Wilde Village Manager J. Mark Rooney JMR Concur Village Trustees Don Burroway Paul Humpfer Kevin Rehberg Jeff Sabbe Pat Schultz Virginia Stephens BOARD REPORT TO: Village President and Board of Trustees, Village Manager, Village Attorney FROM: Joseph F. Wade, Assistant Village Manager/Economic Development Director DATE: April 30, 2015 RE: Presentation by Staff and S.B. Friedman, Development Advisor, Re: Proposed Old Town/Route 31 Redevelopment District and Continuation of Boundary Discussion Background: In 2012, after an extensive public planning process with the assistance of the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning, the Village adopted the Old Town Plan. The Plan recognized targeted public capital projects which would enhance the quality of life in Old Town, as well as the greater Village. These projects include: Washington/Main intersection safety and traffic flow improvements, storm water management improvements resulting from installation of a larger culvert at Washington Avenue and Carpenter Creek, relocation of Commonwealth Edison Substation on Washington Avenue and possible purchase of river area property for public space. These improvements would enhance traffic flow in the area and the developability of the former public works property at Washington and Spring, and other Washington Avenue properties. Additionally, the Village has recognized the importance of redeveloping the Huntley Square property and development of vacant parcels along Route 31. In July, 2014, Village staff recommended the exploration of a tax increment financing district to encompass Old Town/Route 31 Corridor with a shared boundary with the Spring Hill Commerce

5 05/05/15 Agenda Item No. V.A. and Industrial Park Tax Increment Financing District. Staff recommends a contiguous boundary of these districts to enable the use of the Spring Hill TIF fund balance to be used to fund the referenced public improvements in the Old Town/Route 31 area. This fund balance would enable the Village to leverage other State and/or Federal monies through applicable grant processes. Such grant programs as State of Illinois Department of Natural Resources Open Space Land Acquisition and Development or U.S. Department of Transportation Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality offer grant matches of 50/50 or 80/20 state/federal to local match ratios. At the March 17, 2015 Board meeting, S.B. Friedman provided a report regarding tax increment financing district eligibility of this proposed district and also possible boundaries. The Board requested that further analysis of the Old Town/Route 31 Redevelopment District Boundary. Staff and S.B. Friedman are recommending what might be considered a limited or definedpurpose boundary of the district, primarily representing properties identified for redevelopment and/or public infrastructure purposes. Most significantly, the recommendation is to leave out of the proposed district the agricultural property along Maple Avenue. Agricultural property east of Carpenter Park is requested to remain within the District in order to provide contiguity to Public Works property and provide for the possible relocation of the Edison substation. Analysis: Recommended capital projects in the Old Town Plan do not have an available targeted funding source. The implementation of a tax increment financing district would provide the increment from increased property taxes to assist with public improvements. More importantly, the establishment of this proposed tax increment financing district, adjacent to the Spring Hill Commerce and Industrial Park tax increment financing district, would enable the Village to utilize funding within the Spring Hill District to provide investment capital for the Village to leverage such possible grant funding as the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality program and Open Space Land Acquisition and Development program, to enable the Village to undertake important improvements. For example, initial engineering analysis has revealed that the construction of a traffic roundabout at Washington/Main would provide safer turning movements as well as eliminate the traffic backup that encompasses Washington Avenue, Spring and other areas. The rudimentary cost estimate for this project is over $3 million. However, because the impact of the improvement is a significant reduction in traffic congestion, this is viewed as a very favorable candidate for a Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality grant. The attainment of such a grant could reduce the Village s local share of the cost to per cent of the project. A similar return-on-investment ratio could be obtained through successful attainment of an Open Space Land Acquisition and Development grant. Without investment capital to cover qualification costs and local share responsibilities, these grants cannot be applied for. In addition to utilizing this tax increment financing district to enable use of the Spring Hill Commerce and Industrial Park tax increment financing fund balance, and resulting leveraging of other funds, the establishment of the TIF district could also assist in the redevelopment of other targeted properties of declining assessed valuation, such as Huntley Square..

6 05/05/15 Agenda Item No. V.A. Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact of this tax increment financing district concept provides timely funding to undertake the above-referenced Old Town improvements as well as increment amount availability for other targeted redevelopment projects such as Huntley Square. Recommendation Staff recommends concept approval of this Tax Increment Financing District and the boundaries presented. This provides direction for further research and expenses related to establishment of this TIF District. Following public notification of affected property owners, an ordinance establishing the District would be considered by the Village Board.
