MAYOR

TO THE HONORABLE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHICAGO
 
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
At the request ofthe Commissioner of Planning and Development, I transmit herewith ordinances authorizing the sale of city-owned property.
 
Your favorable consideration of these ordinances will be appreciated.
 
Mayor
 
 
 
Very truly yours,
 
ORDINANCE
 
WHEREAS, the City of Chicago ("City") is a home rule unit of government under Section 6(a), Article VII ofthe Constitution ofthe State of Illinois of 1970 and may exercise any power related to its local governmental affairs; and
 
WHEREAS, the City has acquired title to numerous parcels of vacant property located throughout the City of Chicago pursuant to its responsibility to protect the health, safety and welfare; and
 
WHEREAS, many ofthe City-owned parcels are of minimal value, yet are costly for the City to clean-up and maintain; and
 
WHEREAS, it is the City's intention to dispose of those certain City-owned, vacant parcels (i.e., no structures), which are zoned residential, are located in the Englewood, West Englewood, Woodlawn and Washington Park community areas, and parts of the Greater Grand Crossing, New City and Fuller Park community areas, and are identified in Exhibit A attached hereto (each, a "City Parcel", and collectively, the "City Parcels"); and
 
WHEREAS, the disposition of the City Parcels would allow local residents to have greater control over land in their neighborhood, and provide opportunities to possibly profit from selling those parcels in the future as the areas in which the parcels are located revitalize; and
 
WHEREAS, public notices advertising the proposed sale of the City Parcels appeared in the Sun-Times on October 8 and 15, 2014; and
 
WHEREAS, the Department has received applications relating to the disposition of the City Parcels; and
 
WHEREAS, the Department has evaluated the applications based on the following criteria: (i) A Qualifying Property Owner (as defined below) may not purchase more than two (2) City Parcels per parcel of real property that the Qualifying Property Owner owns on the same block as the City Parcels; and (ii) if the Department receives complete applications from more than one Qualifying Property Owner for a particular City Parcel, then the Department will select the "successful" application based on a random (e.g., blind lottery) selection process; provided, however, if only one ofthe complete applications was submitted by a Qualifying Property Owner who owns a parcel of land adjacent to the City Parcel, then the Department will select such Qualifying Property Owner's application. "Person" means any natural individual, firm, trust, partnership, association, joint venture, for-profit corporation or other legal entity, other than a not-for-profit corporation. "Qualifying Property Owner" means (i) a Person who owns a parcel of real property located on the same block as a City Parcel, and who is not delinquent in the payment of any property taxes or any debt owed to the City of Chicago, County of Cook or State of Illinois, or (ii) a non-sectarian, not-for-profit corporation in good standing with the State of Illinois which owns a parcel of real property located on the same block as a City Parcel, and which is not delinquent in the payment of any property taxes or any debt owed to the City of Chicago,
 
 
County of Cook or State of Illinois; and
 
WHEREAS, by Resolution No. 14-096-21, adopted by the Plan Commission ofthe City of Chicago (the "Plan Commission") on August 21, 2014, the Plan Commission recommended the sale of the City Parcels; now, therefore,
 
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHICAGO:
 
SECTION 1. The above recitals are expressly adopted herein as the legislative findings of the City Council and incorporated herein and made a part of this ordinance.
 
SECTION 2. The Mayor or his proxy is authorized to execute, and the City Clerk or Deputy City Clerk is authorized to attest, quitclaim deeds, each such deed conveying a City Parcel to the respective Qualifying Property Owner selected by the Department, or to a land trust of which the Qualified Property Owner is the sole beneficiary, or to an entity of which the Qualified Property Owner is the sole owner and the controlling party.
 
SECTION 3. Any deed conveying a City Parcel to a Qualifying Property Owner may contain such covenants as the Department reasonably deems necessary, including, but not limited to, covenants that require the Qualifying Property Owner for a period of five (5) years commencing on the date on which the City conveys title to such City Parcel to the Qualifying Property Owner (a) to remain in title to the City Parcel and (b) to maintain the City Parcel. The City shall have a right of reverter if the Qualifying Property Owner fails to comply with such covenants. The Department may require the Qualifying Property Owner to execute a reconveyance deed at the time the City conveys the City Parcel, for the purpose of facilitating the City's exercise of its right of reverter, if necessary.
 
SECTION 4. If any provision of this ordinance shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect any of the other provisions of this ordinance.
 
SECTION 5. All ordinances, resolutions, motions or orders inconsistent with this ordinance are hereby repealed to the extent of such conflict.
 
SECTION 6. This ordinance shall take effect immediately upon its passage and approval.
