ORDINANCE
WHEREAS, the City of Chicago (the "City") is a home rule unit of government under Section 6(a), Article VII of the 1970 Constitution of the State of Illinois authorized to exercise any power and perform any function pertaining to its government and affairs; and
WHEREAS, the Cook County Board of Commissioners has enacted the Real Property Assessment Classification Ordinance, as amended (the "Classification Ordinance"), which establishes the Class L property tax classification to encourage the preservation and rehabilitation of certain historically and architecturally significant buildings, which will enhance the general character of real estate in the county and contribute to the economic well-being of the county by increasing the level of economic activity, increasing employment opportunities and contributing to the long-term growth of the real property tax base; and
WHEREAS, CAA Hotel Owner LLC, a limited liability company or its successor in interest (the "Owner"), is the owner of the historic building (the "Building") located at 12 South Michigan Avenue and 71 East Madison Street in Chicago, Illinois, as more precisely described in Exhibit 1 attached hereto and hereby made a part hereof (the land and improvements thereon being herein referred to as the "Project Real Estate"); and
WHEREAS, City Council of the City (the "City Council") adopted an ordinance on March 27, 2002, designating the Historic Michigan Boulevard District as a Chicago Landmark pursuant to the criteria then established in Section 2-120-620 of the Municipal Code of Chicago, and the Building is considered a contributing building to that district; such designation meets the definition of a "contributing" building within a landmark district pursuant to the Classification Ordinance; and
WHEREAS, the Owner proposes to rehabilitate the Building (referred to herein as the "Project") thereby preserving the historic building, increasing employment opportunities in the area and contributing to the long-term growth of the real property tax base; and
WHEREAS, the Owner anticipates using the Building for hotel and commercial purposes (the "Use") after the Project is completed; and
WHEREAS, the Owner has applied to the Office of the Assessor of Cook County, Illinois (the "Assessor"), for designation of the Project Real Estate as a Class L classification eligible for certain real estate tax incentives pursuant to the Classification Ordinance; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Classification Ordinance, the Class L classification is available to real estate which is to be used for commercial or industrial purposes and which (1) is a Landmark (as defined in Section 1 of the Classification Ordinance); and (2) has undergone Substantial Rehabilitation (as defined in Section 1 of the Classification Ordinance), which constitutes an investment by the owner of at least 50 percent of the building's full market value as determined by the Assessor in the assessment year prior to the commencement of the Substantial Rehabilitation; and the Class L incentive shall apply to the building and the land upon which the building is situated since the entire building has been vacant and unused for at least 24 continuous months prior to the filing of the eligibility application with the Assessor; and
WHEREAS, Section 2 of the Classification Ordinance requires that, in connection with the filing of a Class L eligibility application with the Assessor, an applicant must obtain from the unit of local government in which the real estate is located, an ordinance or resolution which expressly states that the local government: 1) has determined that the incentive provided by Class L is necessary for the Substantial Rehabilitation of the property; 2) supports and consents
1
 
 
to the granting of the incentive; and 3) has reviewed and accepted its Preservation Commission's (as defined in Section 1 of the Classification Ordinance) written recommendation of the project for the Class L incentive, specifying the project budget and proposed scope of the work, which meets or exceeds the Standards of the United States Department of the Interior for Rehabilitation, Preservation, Restoration, and Reconstruction of historic properties; and
WHEREAS, the City is a Certified Local Government as defined in Section 1 of the Classification Ordinance and has established the City of Chicago Commission on Chicago Landmarks (the "Landmarks Commission"), and such Landmarks Commission is a Preservation Commission (as defined in Section 1 of the Classification Ordinance); and
WHEREAS, on April 4, 2013, the Landmarks Commission issued a written recommendation of the Project to the City Council; recommending that the Project be approved by the Assessor for the Class L incentive, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and hereby made a part hereof; and
WHEREAS, the Project Real Estate has not been occupied and used for the 24-month period prior to the filing of the Class L eligibility application with the Assessor, making the Class L incentive applicable to the Building and land; and
WHEREAS, the Department of Housing and Economic Development of the City ("HED") has reviewed the proposed Project, and the Landmarks Commission has determined that it meets the necessary eligibility requirements for Class L designation, and hereby recommends to City Council that the City expressly determine by ordinance that: 1) the incentive provided by Class L is necessary for the Substantial Rehabilitation of the Project Real Estate; 2) the City supports and consents to the granting of the incentive; and 3) the City has reviewed and accepted the Landmarks Commission's written recommendation of the.Project for the Class L incentive, specifying the Project budget and proposed scope of the work, and specifying that the Project meets or exceeds the Standards of the United States Department of the Interior for Rehabilitation, Preservation, Restoration, and Reconstruction of historic properties; now, therefore,

To the extent that the Project Real Estate is not rehabilitated, used or maintained during the term of the Class L incentive in a manner which is substantially consistent with the approved Project or Use, as determined by the Authorized Officer, the Authorized Officer is hereby authorized to take such steps as may be necessary and appropriate to withdraw the City's support and consent to the Class L incentive, which may cause the Class L certification to be terminated or revoked.
