*** As of the last date of the reporting fiscal year, the construction of this Project was ongoing; the Private Investment Undertaken and Ratio figures for this Project will be reported on the Annual Report for the fiscal year in which the construction of the Project is completed and the tolal Private Investment figure is available.
General Notes
(a) Each actual or estimated Public Investment reported here is, to the extent possible, comprised only of payments financed by tax increment revenues. In contrast, each actual or estimated Private Investment reported here is, to the extent possible, comprised of payments financed by revenues that are not tax increment revenues and, therefore, may include private equity, private lender financing, private grants, other public monies, or other local, state or federal grants or loans.
(b) Each amount reported here under Public Investment Undertaken, Total Estimated to Complete Project, is the maximum amount of payments financed by tax increment revenues that could be made pursuant to the corresponding Project's operating documents, but not including interest that may later be payable on developer notes, and may not necessarily reflect actual expenditures, if any, as reported in Section 3 herein. The total public investment amount ultimately made under each Project will depend upon the future occurrence of various conditions, including interest that may be payable on developer notes as set forth in the Project's operating documents.
(c)Each amount reported here under Public Investment Undertaken, 11/1/1999 to Date, is cumulative from the Date of execution of the corresponding Project to the end of the reporting year, and may include interest amounts paid to finance the Public Investment amount. Projects undertaken prior to 11/1/1999 are not reported on this table.
(d) Intergovernmental agreements, if any, are reported on Attachment M hereto.

Dear Addressees:
I am the Corporation Counsel of the City of Chicago, Illinois (the "City") and, in such capacity, I am the head of the City's Law Department. In such capacity, I am providing the opinion required by Section 11-74.4-5 (d)(4) of the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act, 65 ILCS 5/11-74.4-1 et seq. (the "Act"), in connection with the submission of the report (the "Report") in accordance with, and containing the information required by, Section 1 l-74.4-5(d) of the Act for the Redevelopment Project Area.

Opinion of Counsel for 2010 Annual Report Page 2
June 30, 2011
Attorneys, past and present, in the Law Department of the City and familiar with the requirements of the Act, have had general involvement in the proceedings affecting the Redevelopment Project Area, including the preparation of ordinances adopted by the City Council of the City with respect to the following matters: approval of the redevelopment plan and project for the Redevelopment Project Area, designation of the Redevelopment Project Area as a redevelopment project area, and adoption of tax increment allocation financing for the Redevelopment Project Area, all in accordance with the then applicable provisions of the Act. Various departments of the City, including, if applicable, the Law Department, Department of Housing and Economic Development, Department of Finance and Office of Budget and Management (collectively, the "City Departments"), have personnel responsible for and familiar with the activities in the Redevelopment Project Area affecting such Department(s) and with the requirements of the Act in connection therewith. Such personnel are encouraged to seek and obtain, and do seek and obtain, the legal guidance of the Law Department with respect to issues that may arise from time to time regarding the requirements of, and compliance with, the Act.
In my capacity as Corporation Counsel, I have relied on the general knowledge and actions of the appropriately designated and trained staff of the Law Department and other applicable City Departments involved with the activities affecting the Redevelopment Project Area. In addition, I have caused to be examined or reviewed by members of the Law Department of the City the certified audit report, to the extent required to be obtained by Section 1 l-74.4-5(d)(9) of the Act and submitted as part of the Report, which is required to review compliance with the Act in certain respects, to determine if such audit report contains information that might affect my opinion. I have also caused to be examined or reviewed such other documents and records as were deemed necessary to enable me to render this opinion. Nothing has come to my attention that would result in my need to qualify the opinion hereinafter expressed, subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth, unless and except to the extent set forth in an Exception Schedule attached hereto as Schedule 1.
Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that, in all material respects, the City is in compliance with the provisions and requirements of the Act in effect and then applicable at the time actions were taken from time to time with respect to the Redevelopment Project Area.
This opinion is given in an official capacity and not personally and no personal liability shall derive herefrom. Furthermore, the only opinion that is expressed is the opinion specifically set forth herein, and no opinion is implied or should be inferred as to any other matter. Further, this opinion may be relied upon only by the addressees hereof and the Mayor of the City in providing his required certification in connection with the Report, and not by any other party.

30
 
S:\Finance\lllth & Kedzie-Walgreens\RDA rev draft 10--Amended Ord.wpd
and any expenses, if any, including reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be promptly disbursed to DCD by the Developer.

Contemporaneously with Developer's requisition for its annual disbursement under the City Note, Developer shall deliver to DCD an occupancy progress report ("Occupancy Report") detailing compliance with the Average Minimum Occupancy requirement for the 12-month period beginning January 1 of the preceding year. If Developer submits an Occupancy Report that indicates a failure to maintain the Average Minimum Occupancy (an "Occupancy Default"), such Occupancy Default shall not be deemed an Event of Default under this Agreement if: (i) the Developer has maintained the Minimum Occupancy in the 30 days preceding the date of the Occupancy Report and has provided the City with evidence that it has contracted for the Minimum Occupancy for the following year; (ii) the Developer has cured the Occupancy Default within one year following the date of the Occupancy Report specifying such Occupancy Default (such one-year period is referred to as the "Minimum Cure Period"); or (iii) the Developer has commenced to cure an Occupancy Default within the Minimum Cure Period and has cured such Occupancy Default within two years following the date of the Occupancy Report specifying the Occupancy Default (such two-year period is referred to as the "Maximum Cure Period").

32
 
S:\Finance\lllth & Kedzie-Walgreens\RDA rev draft 10--Amended Ord.wpd
(d) Occupancy Default Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Occupancy Default, the City may suspend disbursement of payments due under the City Note until Developer has complied with the occupancy covenants in this Section 8.19.

SECTION 10. DEVELOPER'S EMPLOYMENT OBLIGATIONS
10.01 Employment Opportunity. The Developer, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby agrees, and shall contractually obligate its or their various contractors, subcontractors or any Affiliate of the Developer operating on the Property (collectively, with the Developer, the "Employers" and individually an "Employer") to agree, that for the Term of this Agreement with respect to Developer and during the period of any other party's provision of services in connection with the construction of the Project or occupation of the Property:
33
 
(a) No Employer shall discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment based upon race, religion, color, sex, national origin or ancestry, age, handicap or disability, sexual orientation, military discharge status, marital status, parental status or source of income as defined in the City of Chicago Human Rights Ordinance, Chapter 2-160, Section 2-160-010 et seq., Municipal Code, except as otherwise provided by said ordinance and as amended from time to time (the "Human Rights Ordinance"). Each Employer shall take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are hired and employed without discrimination based upon race, religion, color, sex, national origin or ancestry, age, handicap or disability, sexual orientation, military discharge status, marital status, parental status or source of income and are treated in a nondiscriminatory manner with regard to all job-related matters, including without limitation: employment, upgrading, demotion or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. Each Employer agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided by the City setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause. In addition, the Employers, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees, shall state that all qualified applicants shall receive consideration for employment without discrimination based upon race, religion, color, sex, national origin or ancestry, age, handicap or disability, sexual orientation, military discharge status, marital status, parental status or source of income.
(b) To the greatest extent feasible, each Employer is required to present opportunities for training and employment of low- and moderate-income residents of the City and preferably of the Redevelopment Area; and to provide that contracts for work in connection with the construction of the Project be awarded to business concerns that are located in, or owned in substantial part by persons residing in, the City and preferably in the Redevelopment Area.
(c) Each Employer shall comply with all federal, state and local equal employment and affirmative action statutes, rules and regulations, including but not limited to the City's Human Rights Ordinance and the Illinois Human Rights Act, 775 ILCS 5/1-101 et seq. (1993), and any subsequent amendments and regulations promulgated thereto.
(d) Each Employer, in order to demonstrate compliance with the terms of this Section, shall cooperate with and promptly and accurately respond to inquiries by the City, which has the responsibility to observe and report compliance with equal employment opportunity regulations of federal, state and municipal agencies.
(e) Each Employer shall include the foregoing provisions of subparagraphs (a) through (d) in every contract entered into in connection with the Project, and shall require inclusion of these provisions in every subcontract entered into by any subcontractors, and every agreement with any Affiliate operating on the Property, so that each such provision shall be binding upon each contractor, subcontractor or Affiliate, as the case may be.
(f) Failure to comply with the employment obligations described in this Section 10.01 shall be a basis for the City to pursue remedies under the provisions of Section 15.02 hereof.
10.02 City Resident Construction Worker Employment Requirement. The
Developer agrees for itself and its successors and assigns, and shall contractually obligate its
34
 
S:\Finance\lllth & Kedzie-Walgreens\RDA rev draft 10--Amended Ord.wpd
General Contractor and shall cause the General Contractor to contractually obligate its subcontractors, as applicable, to agree, that during the construction of the Project they shall comply with the minimum percentage of total worker hours performed by actual residents of the City as specified in Section 2-92-330 of the Municipal Code of Chicago (at least 50 percent of the total worker hours worked by persons on the site of the Project shall be performed by actual residents of the City); provided, however, that in addition to complying with this percentage, the Developer, its General Contractor and each subcontractor shall be required to make good faith efforts to utilize qualified residents of the City in both unskilled and skilled labor positions.
The Developer may request a reduction or waiver of this minimum percentage level of Chicagoans as provided for in Section 2-92-330 of the Municipal Code of Chicago in accordance with standards and procedures developed by the Chief Procurement Officer of the City.
"Actual residents of the City " shall mean persons domiciled within the City. The domicile is an individual's one and only true, fixed and permanent home and principal establishment.
The Developer, the General Contractor and each subcontractor shall provide for the maintenance of adequate employee residency records to show that actual Chicago residents are employed on the Project and shall maintain copies of perso.nal documents supportive of every Chicago employee's actual record of residence.
Weekly certified payroll reports (U.S. Department of Labor Form WH-347 or equivalent) shall be submitted to the Commissioner in triplicate, which shall identify clearly the actual residence of every employee on each submitted certified payroll. The first time that an employee's name appears on a payroll, the date that the Employer hired the employee should be written in after the employee's name.
The Developer, the General Contractor and each subcontractor shall provide full access to their employment records to the Chief Procurement Officer, the Commissioner, the Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department, the Inspector General or any duly authorized representative of any of them. The Developer, the General Contractor and each subcontractor shall maintain all relevant personnel data and records for a period of at least three (3) years after final acceptance of the work constituting the Project.
At the direction of DCD, affidavits and other supporting documentation will be required of the Developer, the General Contractor and each subcontractor to verify or clarify an employee's actual address when doubt or lack of clarity has arisen.
Good faith efforts on the part of the Developer, the General Contractor and each subcontractor to provide utilization of actual Chicago residents (but not sufficient for the granting of a waiver request as provided for in the standards and procedures developed by the Chief Procurement Officer) shall not suffice to replace the actual, verified achievement of the
35
 
requirements of this Section concerning the worker hours performed by actual Chicago residents.
When work at the Project is completed, in the event that the City has determined that the Developer has failed to ensure the fulfillment of the requirement of this Section concerning the worker hours performed by actual Chicago residents or failed to report in the manner as indicated above, the City will thereby be damaged in the failure to provide the benefit of demonstrable employment to Chicagoans to the degree stipulated in this Section. Therefore, in such a case of non-compliance, it is agreed that 1/20 of 1 percent (0.0005) of the aggregate hard construction costs set forth in the Project Budget (the product of .0005 x such aggregate hard construction costs) (as the same shall be evidenced by approved contract value for the actual contracts) shall be surrendered by the Developer to the City in payment for each percentage of shortfall toward the stipulated residency requirement. Failure to report the residency of employees entirely and correctly shall result in the surrender of the entire liquidated damages as if no Chicago residents were employed in either of the categories. The willful falsification of statements and the certification of payroll data may subject the Developer, the General Contractor and/or the subcontractors to prosecution. Any retainage to cover contract performance that may become due to the Developer pursuant to Section 2-92-250 of the Municipal Code of Chicago may be withheld by the City pending the Chief Procurement Officer's determination as to whether the Developer must surrender damages as provided in this paragraph.
Nothing herein provided shall be construed to be a limitation upon the "Notice of Requirements for Affirmative Action to Ensure Equal Employment Opportunity, Executive Order 11246" and "Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity, Executive Order 11246," or other affirmative action required for equal opportunity under the provisions of this Agreement or related documents.
The Developer shall cause or require the provisions of this Section 10.02 to be included in all construction contracts and subcontracts related to the Project.
10.03. MBE/WBE Commitment. The Developer agrees for itself and its successors and assigns, and, if necessary to meet the requirements set forth herein, shall contractually obligate the General Contractor to agree that during the Project:

11101 Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Redevelopment Plan And Project.
May 18, 1999.
1.
Introduction.
This document presents a Tax Increment Financing Redevelopment Plan and Project (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan") pursuant to the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act (65 ILCS. 5/11-74.1, et seq.) (1996 State Bar Edition), as amended (the "Act") for the llllh Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District in the City of Chicago, Illinois (the "City"). The Redevelopment Project Area (the "Area") includes land along West 111th Street, from South Pulaski Road on the west to the Chicago & Grand Trunk & Western Railroad right-of-way on the east, and land along South Kedzie Avenue from West 110th Street on the north to one-half block south of IIIth Street. The Area consists mainly of commercial properties. The Plan responds to problem conditions within the Area and reflects a commitment by the City to revitalize the Area.
A planning study was prepared by Camiros, Ltd. in 1997 to guide the revitalization of the 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District. This study, known as the " 111,h Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Improvement Plan", provides in-depth analysis of existing conditions and establishes a set of possible strategies, policies and improvement proposals for the revitalization of the 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District. Many of the recommendations of this study took the form of ideas, preliminary designs and development concepts that provide overall direction for improving the business district. This study also included a possible "action agenda" to help focus improvement activities. Thus, this initial revitalization study was intended to serve as a working tool by the City and community leaders for improving the business district.
The goals, policies and proposals of this Plan are derived in part from the 1997

"IIIth Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Improvement Plan", which, recommends the creation of a tax-increment financing district as an element of the proposed improvement strategies. This Plan is an official plan, formulated specifically to respond to the Act, and establishes measures to promote the redevelopment of the Area.
This Plan presents additional research and analysis undertaken to document the eligibility of the Area for designation as a "conservation area" tax increment financing district. The need for public intervention, goals and objectives, land-use policies and other policy materials are presented in this Plan. The results of a study documenting the eligibility of the Area as a conservation area are presented in Appendix B, Eligibility Report (the "study").
Tax Increment Financing.
In adopting the Act, the Illinois State Legislature found at 5/11 -74.4-2(a) that:
... there exist in many municipalities within this State blighted, conservation and industrial park conservation areas as defined herein; that the conservation areas are rapidly deteriorating and declining and may soon become blighted areas if their decline is not checked..
and at 5/1 l-74.4-2(b) that:
... in order to promote and protect the health, safety, morals, and welfare of the public, that blighted conditions need to be eradicated and conservation measures instituted, and that redevelopment of such areas be undertaken.. The eradication of blighted areas and treatment and improvement of conservation areas and industrial park conservation areas by redevelopment projects is hereby declared to be essential to the public interest.
In order to use the tax increment financing technique, a municipality must first establish that the proposed redevelopment project area meets the statutory criteria for designation as a "blighted area", a "conservation area" or an "industrial park conservation area". A redevelopment plan must then be prepared which describes the development or redevelopment program intended to be undertaken to reduce or eliminate those conditions which qualified the redevelopment project area as a "blighted area", "conservation area", or combination thereof, or "industrial park conservation area", and thereby enhance the tax bases of the taxing districts which extend into the redevelopment project area. The statutory requirements are set out at 65 Sec.

JOURNAL-CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
5/11-74.4-3, et seq.
The Act provides that, in order to .be adopted, a Plan must meet the following conditions under 74.4-3(n):
(1) ... the redevelopment project area on the whole has not been subject to growth and development through investment by private enterprise and would not be reasonably anticipated to be developed without the adoption of the redevelopment plan. (2) ...the redevelopment plan and project conform to the comprehensive plan for the development ofthe municipality as a whole, or, for municipalities with a population of one hundred thousand (100,000) or more, regardless of when the redevelopment plan and project was adopted, the redevelopment plan and project either: (i) conforms to the strategic economic development or redevelopment plan issued by the designated planning authority of the municipality, or (ii) includes land uses that have been approved by the planning commission of the municipality, (3) the redevelopment plan establishes the estimated dates [which shall not be more than twenty-three (23) years from the adoption of the ordinance approving the redevelopment project area] of completion of the redevelopment project and retirement of obligations issued to finance redevelopment project costs..., (4) ...in the case of an industrial park conservation area, also that the municipality is a labor surplus municipality and that the implementation of the redevelopment plan will reduce unemployment, create new jobs and by the provision of new facilities enhance the tax base ofthe taxing districts that extend into the redevelopment project area, and (5) if any incremental revenues are being utilized under Section 8(a)(1) or 8(a)(2) of this Act in redevelopment project areas approved by ordinance after January 1, 1986 the municipality finds (a) that the redevelopment project area would not reasonably be developed without the use of such incremental revenues, and (b) that such incremental revenues will be exclusively utilized for the development of the redevelopment project area.
Redevelopment projects are defined as any public or private development projects undertaken in furtherance of the objectives of the redevelopment plan.
The City authorized an evaluation of whether a portion of the City commonly known as the IIIth Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District, qualifies for designation as a "conservation area" pursuant to the provisions contained in the Act. If the area so qualified, the City requested the preparation of a redevelopment plan for the redevelopment project area in accordance with the requirements of the Act.

Overview Of The Redevelopment Area.
The Area is shaped irregularly. It is centered on the 111"1 Street/Kedzie Avenue intersection and runs west/east along West IIIth Street from South Pulaski Road in the west to the Chicago 86 Grand Trunk & Western Railroad in the east. The Area consists mainly of commercial properties fronting onto West IIIth Street and South Kedzie Avenue, is approximately eighty-six (86) acres in size and includes two hundred fifty-six (256) contiguous parcels and public rights-of-way.
The Area has experienced significant disinvestment, evidenced by a loss of quality stores and a lack of private investment in property improvement. The primary cause of this disinvestment is an overall functional obsolescence that affects much of the area. The pattern of development throughout the Area is outdated and no longer suitable for a viable urban shopping district. This obsolescence is characterized by unsuitable sizes and shapes of buildings and lots, an inadequate supply and configuration of parking, poor access characteristics and lack of aesthetic appeal.
The functional obsolescence of the Area, as manifested by deterioration, disinvestment, and lack of new development, can be remedied only through the infusion of new development and investment. The Area, as a whole, has not been subject to growth and development by private enterprise and is not reasonably anticipated to be developed without the adoption of the Plan. The study, attached hereto as Appendix B, concluded that property in the Area is experiencing deterioration and disinvestment.
The purpose of this Plan is to provide the stimulus needed to revitalize the Area. To accomplish that the Plan will create a mechanism to:
1. Allow for the development of new commercial and public facilities on existing underutilized land.
2. Redevelop and/or expand existing businesses.
3. Provide an adequate supply of parking.
4. Improve the Redevelopment Project Area's physical environment and infrastructure.
Summary Of Findings. The Area is appropriate for designation as a "conservation area" in accordance
 
11420
JOURNAL—CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
with the Act. Based on the following summary of findings:
1) The Area has not been subject to growth and development through private enterprise.
2) The continued lack of growth and development will exacerbate conditions of obsolescence causing further disinvestment and, eventually, blight. •
3) The Area is not reasonably anticipated to be developed by private enterprise without public intervention and the adoption of this Plan.
4) The Area meets the requirements for designation as a "conservation area" because seventy-five percent (75%) of the buildings in the Area are over thirty-five (35) years old and the following conditions are present:
Deleterious land-use and layout. Depreciation of physical maintenance. Excessive land coverage. Obsolescence.
Lack of community planning.
Presence of structures below minimum code standards.
5)     The conditions outlined above are distributed throughout the Area.
This Plan summarizes the analyses and findings of the consultant's work, which unless otherwise noted, is solely the responsibility of Camiros, Ltd. and its subconsultants. Camiros, Ltd. has prepared this Plan, and the related study, with the understanding that the. City would rely on (1) the findings and conclusions of the Plan and the related study in proceeding with the designation of the Area as a T.I.F. district and the adoption and implementation of the Redevelopment Plan and Project, and (2) the fact that Camiros, Ltd. has obtained the necessary information to insure that the Plan and the related eligibility study comply with the Act.
The Plan has been formulated in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

This document is a guide to all proposed public and private actions in the Area.
The land to be designated as the Area shown in Figure 1, Boundary Map, is not adjacent to any other T.I.F. district at the present time. It is approximately eighty-six (86) acres in size, including public rights-of-way. A legal description of the Area is included as Appendix A of this document. The proposed Area includes only those contiguous parcels, which are anticipated to be substantially benefited by the proposed redevelopment project improvements and qualifies for designation as a "conservation area".
Current Area Land-Use.
Existing land-use within the Area consists of a mix of commercial, institutional and public uses, as shown in Figure 2, Existing Land-Use and presented in Table 1, Existing Land-Use Composition, below. Other use types represented are: specialty retail, eating/drinking establishments, consumer services, personal services, public/institutional, professional and office/financial services uses. The small number of non-commercial properties within the Area consist of residential and institutional uses.

Current zoning, shown in Figure 3, Existing Zoning, is generally consistent with existing land-use. Almost all of the Area falls under business district classifications, including B2-1, B4-1 and B4-2. The B2-1, B4-1 and B4-2 are restricted business districts which limit establishments to twenty-one thousand eight hundred seventy-five (21,875) square feet in floor area to help control the volume of vehicular and pedestrian traffic. The B4-1 and B4-2 districts allow a wider range of uses than the B2-1 district. Land zoned with the B2-.1 classification is limited to an existing fast food establishment on South Kedzie Avenue just north of West 111th Street. Other classifications present within the Redevelopment Project Area include the C-l, C-2 and R-l classifications. The only property zoned R-l is the Mount Greenwood Park facility and the adjacent church park district to the east.
Community Characteristics.
The Area is a well situated commercial area that should serve the needs of area residents. Existing land uses include specialty stores, offices, restaurants and bars. The scale and mix of uses defines the Area as a neighborhood business district. Several cultural and religious institutions, such as Saint Christina's Church and the Mount Greenwood Reformed Church, coexist with the commercial development. Additional institutional uses include the Mount Greenwood Branch Library, Mount Greenwood Park and the Mount Greenwood Agricultural Sciences High School.
In order to strengthen the Area as a neighborhood business district, several functional issues must be addressed. Anchor developments, streetscape enhancements and parking reconfiguration are all needed to strengthen the •economic vitality of the Area. The creation of an attractive, well-maintained, accessible retail center will enhance the quality of life for local residents and stimulate economic development.

Residential Areas.
The residential area surrounding the Area is comprised predominantly of single-family dwellings. But, there are also a few scattered apartment buildings and some condominiums which have been constructed since 1970. Multi-family units exist both above and behind several commercial storefronts along West IIIth Street. South Kedzie Avenue, while functioning as a arterial street, is residential in character immediately north and south of the Area.
Demographic and market conditions reveal income and local population characteristics sufficient to support a local business district. In 1990 the population was over twenty-one thousand (21,000) within the primary trade area (approximately one (1) mile radius) and over fifty-seven thousand (57,000) in the extended trade area. The estimated 1996 median household income of Forty-nine Thousand Dollars ($49,000) in• the .primary trade area and Fifty-four Thousand Dollars ($54,000) in the secondary trade area, reflects a stable middle-class community. The projected retail trade potential within the primary and secondary trade areas is Two Hundred Four Million Dollars ($204,000,000) and Five Hundred Sixty-three Million Dollars ($563,000,000), respectively. Based upon a comparison of the projected retail trade potential within the primary trade area to the existing business inventory, significant leakage of,local expenditures is occurring within many retail categories.
Commercial Areas.
Despite the stability of the surrounding residential area, most of the older commercial properties along West IIIth Street have declined since the 1970s. Due to the age, size and layout of the existing commercial building stock, there is a need to renovate and restore many of the older commercial buildings. The majority of these buildings rely exclusively upon on-street parking. Given the orientation of buildings toward the street and the reliance on on-street parking, an improvement of the streetscape character is needed. The poor pedestrian environment is exacerbated by narrow sidewalks and exposure to heavy traffic.
The current mix of uses lacks retail anchors that would give the business district strength and prominence. As a result, the business district plays a marginal role in terms of meeting the commercial needs of community residents. The presence .of more prominent retail uses would provide a framework for the smaller scale local businesses which currently dominate the mix of businesses.
The alignment of nearby competing commercial areas is fragmented and many expenditures made by local residents take place outside the local neighborhood

area. This allows a reasonable opportunity to capture more local expenditures within the Area.
The Area exhibits an obsolete pattern of development. It does not have the •functional benefits of modern commercial development, nor does it provide the pedestrian appeal of traditional urban business districts. The majority of structures were built before 1950. Buildings of this age typically require substantial maintenance and systems upgrade. Additionally, numerous businesses are located upon more than one (1) tax parcel, creating a difficult situation in terms of redevelopment since more than one (1) owner may be involved. Many businesses within the Area lack adequate parking relying solely upon on-street parking.
The lack of appeal of the physical setting of the Area is a major weakness. While the business mix within the Area does not compete directly with large regional retail centers, exposure to these facilities has made local residents accustomed to attractive retail settings. The physical setting of the Area, including building facades, pedestrian amenities and parking areas, must be improved to capture a higher proportion of local retail expenditures. In order to prevent further decline of an important community resource and to encourage private investment, ah effective commercial revitalization program in the Area is required.
Accessibility.
The Area is served by several Chicago Transit Authority bus routes that travel along West IIIth Street, South Kedzie Avenue' and South Pulaski Road. The Pulaski and Kedzie routes connect to the C.T.A.'s Orange Line. The West 111th Street route connects with Metra's Rock Island stop at West 111th Street.
Sidewalk conditions range from sound to poor. The lack of streetscape amenities prevents the creation of pedestrian-friendly shopping environment. There is a strong need for parking improvements due. to a reliance upon on-street parking. Heavy traffic makes on-street parking difficult to use and compromises traffic safety.
Traffic at the intersection of South Kedzie Avenue and West 111th Street experiences significant delays during peak travel times. This congestion extends to the intersections of residential streets making travel difficult for area residents. Intersection improvements are needed at the intersection of South Kedzie Avenue and West IIIth Street. Adding additional traffic lanes may also be warranted. '•.'.'.•

Eligibility Of The Redevelopment Project Designation As A Conservation Area.
The Area has declined significantly over the past several decades and will not regain long-term viability without the adoption of this Plan. The commercial center of the Area has become increasingly obsolete and no longer plays a meaningful role in serving the needs of area residents. Among the Area's challenges are:
Buildings too small to meet the needs of many modern retailing operations.
Lot sizes and configurations that cannot accommodate the construction of larger buildings.
Coverage of land that precludes the provision of adequate parking.
Diversity of ownership that hinders assemblage of land for more suitable commercial uses, especially anchor-type uses.
Older buildings in need of rehabilitation.
Poor access.
Unattractive public improvements and infrastructure not up to par with competing retail areas.
In January and February, 1999, a study was undertaken by Camiros, Ltd. to determine whether the proposed Area is eligible for designation as a conservation area in accordance with the requirements of the Act. This analysis concluded that the Area so qualifies. The Act first requires that at least fifty percent (50%) of the buildings within the Redevelopment Project Area be at least thirty-five (35) years old. Seventy-five percent (75%) of the buildings within the Redevelopment Project Area are more than thirty-five (35) years old.
Once the age requirement has been met, the presence of three (3) of the fourteen (14) conditions is required for designation of improved property as a conservation area. Of the fourteen (14) factors cited in the Act for improved property, six (6) factors are present within the Redevelopment Project Area.
 
11426
JOURNAL—CITY COUNCIL—CHICAGO 9/29/99
The following factors were found to all be present to a major extent:
Deleterious land-use or layout (affecting fifty-four percent (54%) of all parcels).
Depreciation of physical maintenance (affecting fifty-four percent (54%) of all parcels).
Excessive land coverage (affecting fifty-five percent (55%) of all structures).
Obsolescence (affecting fifty-five percent (55%) of all structures).
Lack of community planning (characterized by piecemeal, uncoordinated development).
Presence of structures below minimum code (present to a major extent on fifty-four percent (54%) of the twenty-eight (28) tax blocks in the Area).
For more detail on the basis for eligibility, refer to the study in Appendix B.
Need For Public Intervention.
The Area on the whole has not been subject to significant growth and development through investment by private enterprise. Based on present conditions, the Area is ,not likely to be developed without the adoption of the Plan. Further decline in the Area will occur in the absence of private-sector investment, and blight within the Area would eventually have a blighting effect on adjacent residential areas.
Redevelopment of property within the Redevelopment Project Area is not expected to occur without public intervention. The analysis of conditions within the Area includes an evaluation of construction activity between January, 1995 and December, 1998. Table 2, Building Permit Activity, summarizes construction activity within the Area by year and project type.
During this four (4) year period, a total of forty (40) building permits were issued for property within the Area. However, this level of building permit activity is not necessarily a sign of economic well-being. A certain level of building permit activity occurs merely to address basic maintenance needs. With the exception of one (1) permit issued for new construction and three (3)

permits issued for building additions, building permits within the-Area were issued for general repairs or correction of building code violations.
This minimal level of investment illustrates the fundamental problem of economic and functional obsolescence of commercial property within the Area. This problem is not being resolved through private-sector investment, and a continuation of this lack of investment within an older commercial district would eventually lead to blight. Addressing the obsolescence of the Area can only be accomplished through a combination of new building construction and significant rehabilitation of existing buildings designed to meet the needs of modern retail activity.
A detailed analysis of building permit activity confirms the lack of private sector investment. The total value of construction activity in 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998 was One Million Four Hundred Sixty-five Thousand Forty-five Dollars ($1,465,045). While this does not represent significant reinvestment to begin with, Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000) of this total construction value represented the 1996 construction of an ice skating rink in Mount Greenwood Park, a public facility. Subtracting this single public construction project from the total value of building permit activity reduces the construction value to Six Hundred Sixty-five Thousand Forty-five Dollars ($665,045) over this four (4) year period. Dividing this figure by the two hundred fifty-six (256) tax parcels within the Area results in an average of Six Hundred Fifty Dollars ($650) of construction value per parcel per year.
This level of reinvestment is hardly sufficient to provide for basic maintenance in an older commercial district, let alone make upgrades needed to overcome the obsolescence in the Area. Based on the existing E.A.V. of the Area (Fourteen Million Three Hundred Sixty-two Thousand Two Hundred Forty-seven Dollars ($14,362,247)), the assessment rate for commercial property (thirty-eight percent (38%)) and the State Multiplier (2.124), the approximate market value of property is Eighteen Million Dollars ($18,000,000). The average yearly value of building permit construction activity, less the value of the ice skating rink, represents less than one percent (1%) of the market value of property within the Area.
This investment in property is very small for commercial property. Most structures in the Area are more than mirty-five (35) years old and as a result need significant improvements in building systems and interior space to serve modern users. The construction value of a single new twenty-five thousand (25,000) square foot store (Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000)) would be almost double the construction value of all building permit activity in the Area over the last four (4) years (One Million Four Hundred Sixty-five Thousand Forty-five Dollars .($1,465,045)). Clearly, the development needs of the Area would not reasonably be expected to occur without public

intervention and the adoption of this Redevelopment Plan.
It should be noted that, in spite of the lack of private sector investment, equalized assessed value (E.A.V.) within the Area grew from approximately Eleven Million Dollars ($ 11,000,000) in 1991 to Fourteen Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($14,300,000) in 1997. This growth in E.A.V. could be the result of one (1) or more of several factors, including improvements to a small number of properties, or changes in assessment practices to correct previous assessments. Regardless, the increase in E.A.V. is not the result of reinvestment in property through construction activity since 1995. The lack of improvements made to property is a more definitive measure of the level of private sector investment than is the growth in E.A.V., and the former clearly demonstrates the need for public intervention.

Redevelopment Plan.
The City proposes to achieve the Plan's goals and through the use of public financing techniques, including tax increment financing, and by undertaking some or all of the following actions:
 
9/29/99
REPORTS OF COMMITTEES
11431
Site Assembly.
To meet the goals and objectives of this Plan, the City may acquire and assemble property throughout the Area. Land assemblage by the City may be by purchase, exchange, donation, lease, eminent domain or through the Tax Reactivation Program and may be for the purpose of (a) sale, lease or conveyance to private developers or (b) sale, lease, conveyance or dedication for the construction of public improvements or facilities. Furthermore, the City may require written redevelopment agreements with developers before acquiring any properties. As appropriate, the City may devote acquired property to temporary uses until such property is scheduled for disposition and development.
■ In connection with the City exercising its power to acquire real property, including the exercise of the power of eminent domain, under the Act in implementing the Plan, the City will follow its customary procedures of having each such acquisition recommended by the Community Development Commission (or any successor commission) and authorized by the City Council of the City. Acquisition of such real property as may be authorized by the City Council does not constitute a change in the nature of this Plan. Over the course of the twenty-three (23) year life of the Redevelopment Project Area, it is expected that that bulk of land acquisition, and assembly will be performed by the private sector.
Intergovernmental And Redevelopment Agreements.
The City may enter into redevelopment agreements or intergovernmental agreements with private entities or public entities to construct, rehabilitate, renovate or restore private or public improvements on one (1) or several parcels (collectively referred to as "Redevelopment Projects"). Such redevelopment agreements may be needed to support the rehabilitation or construction of allowable private improvements, in accordance with the Plan; incur costs or reimburse developers for other eligible redevelopment project costs ais provided in the Act in implementing the Redevelopment Plan; and provide public improvements and facilities which may include, but are not limited to utilities, street closures, transit improvements, streetscape enhancements, signalization, parking and surface right-of-way improvements.
Terms of redevelopment as part of this redevelopment project may be incorporated in appropriate redevelopment agreements. For example, the City may agree to reimburse a redeveloper for incurring certain eligible redevelopment project costs under the Act. Such agreements may contain specific development controls as allowed by the Act.
 
11432
JOURNAL-CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
The City requires that developers who receive T.I.F. assistance for market rate housing set aside twenty percent (20%) of the units to meet affordability criteria established by the City's .Department of Housing. Generally, this means the affordable for-sale units should be priced at a level that is affordable to persons earning no more than one hundred twenty percent (120%) ofthe area median income, and affordable rental units should be affordable to persons earning no more than eighty percent (80%) of the area median income.
Job Training.
To the extent allowable under the Act, job training costs may be directed toward training activities designed to enhance the competitive advantages of the area and to attract additional employers to the Redevelopment Project Area who will provide jobs for Chicago residents. Working with employers, local community organizations and residents, job- training and job readiness programs may be provided that meet employers' hiring needs, as allowed under the Act.
A job readiness/training program is a component' of this Plan. The City expects to take an aggressive approach toward hiring from the community and set standards for redevelopment that maximize job opportunities for Chicago residents.
Relocation.
Relocation assistance may be provided in order to facilitate redevelopment of portions of the Area, and to meet the other City objectives. Businesses or households legally occupying properties to be acquired by the City may be provided with relocation advisory and financial assistance as determined by the City.
Analysis, Professional Services And Administrative Activities.
The City may undertake or engage professional consultants, engineers, architects, attorneys and others to conduct various analyses, studies, administrative or legal services to establish, implement and manage this Redevelopment Plan.

Provision Of Public Improvements And Facilities.
Adequate public improvements and facilities may be provided to service the entire Redevelopment Project Area. Public improvements and facilities may include, but are not limited to, street closures to facilitate assembly of development sites, upgrading streets, signalization improvements, provision of streetscape amenities, parking improvements and utility improvements.
Financing Costs Pursuant To The Act.
Interest on any obligations issued under the Act accruing during the estimated period of construction of the redevelopment project and other financing costs maybe paid from the incremental tax revenues pursuant to the provisions of the Act.
Interest Costs Pursuant To The Act.
Pursuant to the Act, the City may allocate a portion of the incremental tax revenues to pay or reimburse redevelopers for interest costs incurred in connection with redevelopment activities in order to enhance the redevelopment potential of the Redevelopment Project Area.

Redevelopment Project Description.
The Plan seeks to create a strong, active and diverse business district. The Area's revitalization is based on a'series of factors including the infusion of new businesses through redevelopment, enhanced existing local businesses, increased parking and reduced congestion, and an attractive physical setting.
This Plan recognizes that new investment in commercial property is needed to achieve revitalization. Every opportunity will be taken to work with existing property owners and merchants to upgrade commercial properties and uses. In certain cases, attracting new businesses and buildings may require the redevelopment of existing properties. Proposals for infrastructure improvements, such as parking, will stress projects that will serve and benefit several commercial properties in the surrounding area. A broad program of aesthetic
 
11434
JOURNAL—CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
enhancement will • consist of a comprehensive program of streetscape improvements, widespread facade renovations and aesthetically compatible new development. The components will create the quality environment required to sustain shopping activity in a competitive retail market.
Physical improvements to the Area are seen as a critical component of its overall improvement. Over the course of time, the Area has become obsolete in its physical layout and appearance. This obsolescence takes several forms. Older commercial buildings are no longer of a size and shape suitable for many types of current retail use. New buildings are needed to support vital new uses while existing buildings will require renovation to be retained. The Area also lacks adequate parking to support a higher level of business activity, and significant physical changes are needed to address this situation.
The poor overall appearance of the Area is a problem also related to obsolescence. Part of this problem stems from neglect. Property within the Area has not received the kind of reinvestment needed to keep the Area attractive to shoppers. Building facade renovation of a significant nature is needed throughout the Area. Improvements to the public rights-of-way are also needed, including a comprehensive streetscape program to help provide an attractive pedestrian shopping environment.
Based on this assessment, the role of physical improvements to the Area' is twofold: 1) to improve the function of the Area in terms of the mix of uses and parking/accessibility; and 2) to make the Area more appealing to shoppers by improving its character and ambiance. The major physical improvement elements anticipated as a result of implementing the proposed Plan are outlined below.
Renovation Of Existing Facades And Commercial Spaces.
Existing commercial space within the business district requires significant exterior and interior renovation to accommodate attractive new businesses or to upgrade existing businesses. This might include unifying the space in adjacent buildings to create larger spaces for larger users.
New Development.
New development is a major element of business district revitalization and will be needed at key locations in the Area to allow for development of retail focal points. Key new development projects are expected to include increased open space, both providing pedestrian amenities and relieving existing traffic
 
9/29/99
REPORTS OF COMMITTEES
11435
congestion and parking restraints. Streetscape improvements will be the other aspect of such development.
Public Improvements.
Improvements to public infrastructure and facilities are needed to complement and attract private sector investment. Infrastructure improvements would include:
Intersection improvements to improve traffic flow.
Street configuration improvements to improve traffic flow.
Streetscape enhancement.
Creating attractive "gateways" into the business district.
Locations of specific uses or public infrastructure improvements may vary from the projects outlined above as a result of more detailed land planning and site design activities. Such variations are permitted without amendment of this Plan, as long as they are consistent with the goals and objectives and the land uses approved by the Chicago Plan Commission. Market-based redevelopment proposals should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine their conformance with the established Plan goals and objectives.
New Parking Facilities.
New surface parking lots are needed to provide adequate parking for business district activities. The IIIth Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Improvement Plan included an inventory of parking spaces in its study area east of South Mallard Avenue. This study indicated a total of one thousand thirty (1,030) parking spaces within private lots and on public streets within the business district. With approximately six hundred thousand (600,000) of floor area within the district, and based on an accepted parking generation rate of five (5) spaces per one thousand (1,000) square feet of floor area, approximately three thousand (3,000) parking spaces would be needed in a conventional (suburban) retail environment. In an urban business district environment, a parking generation rate of three (3) spaces per one thousand (1,000) square feet of floor area would be more applicable, producing a need for one thousand eight hundred (1,800) spaces.
 
11436
JOURNAL-CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
The need for additional parking is particularly important for areas of older buildings that will not be subject to redevelopment and will need parking to strengthen existing businesses. It is expected that these parking lots would be privately owned and remain subject to property taxes. These surface lots are envisioned as common parking lots that would be monitored and managed by the local business community. New development is expected to incorporate parking to serve new uses.
7.
General Land-Use Plan And Map.
The land uses proposed in the Area conform to the land uses approved by the Chicago Plan Commission. Figure 4, General Land-Use Plan, identifies land uses expected to result from implementation of the Plan in the Area. The land-use categories planned for the Area are: 1) commercial; 2) mixed-use (commercial and/or residential); 3) mixed-use (commercial and/or public); and 4) public/semi-public. The General Land-Use Plan is intended to provide a guide for future land-use improvements and developments within the Area, and focuses on improving and expanding the range of commercial land uses within the proposed core of the retail area and an appropriate mix of uses for areas peripheral to the core area. The distribution of these proposed uses within the Area is outlined below.
Commercial.
Proposed commercial use is located within the retail core area around the West IIIth Street and South Kedzie Avenue intersection, and extending eastward along West IIIth Street. Selected blocks that exhibit particular commercial strength, located west of the intersection area to South Pulaski Road, are also designated for commercial use.
Mixed-Use (Commercial And/Or Residential).
This mixed-use category is intended to accommodate both commercial and residential uses within an existing mixed-use area. Commercial or residential uses will likely represent a single use on a lot, but could potentially be mixed within the same building. This category of use is located along West 111th Street
 
9/29/99
REPORTS OF COMMITTEES
11437
on blocks where substantial residential currently exists. This category is designed to allow for commercial redevelopment and enhancement while maintaining viable existing residential uses.
Mixed-Use (Commercial And/Or Public/Semi-Public).
This mixed-use category is intended to accommodate the use and potential redevelopment of frontage along West 111th Street for commercial, public/semi-public or open space uses. The land in this category is located in a number of blocks throughout the Redevelopment Project Area.
Public.
Land under this category consists of public facilities, including Post Office with proposed expansion, at West IIIth Street and South Homan Avenue, a Fire Department facility on West 111th Street (mid-block) between South Troy Street and South Albany Avenue, the Mount Greenwood Park on the south side of West IIIth Street, at South Lawndale Avenue, and the Mount Greenwood branch public library at South Kedzie Avenue arid West 110th Street.
The land-use strategies formulated are intended to direct development toward the most appropriate land-use pattern in each area and enhance the overall development ofthe Area in accordance with the goals and objectives ofthe Plan. Locations of specific uses, or public infrastructure improvements, may vary from the General Land-Use Plan as a result of more detailed planning and site design activities. Such variations are permitted without amendment to this Plan as long as they are consistent with the Plan goals and objectives and the land uses and zoning approved by the Chicago Plan Commission.
8.
Redevelopment Plan Financing.
Tax increment financing is an economic development tool designed to facilitate the redevelopment of blighted areas and to arrest decline in areas that may become blighted without public intervention. It is expected that tax increment financing will be an important means, although not necessarily the only means, of financing improvements and providing development incentives in the Area
 
11438
JOURNAL-CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
throughout its twenty-three (23) year life.
Tax increment financing can only be used when private investment would not reasonably be expected to occur without public assistance. The Act sets forth the range of public assistance that may be provided.
It is anticipated that expenditures for redevelopment project costs will be carefully staged in a reasonable and proportional basis to coincide with expenditures for redevelopment by private developers and the projected availability of tax increment revenues.
Eligible Project Costs.
Redevelopment project costs include the sum total of all reasonable, or necessary, costs incurred, or estimated to be incurred, and any such costs incidental to this Plan. Eligible costs may include, without limitation, the following:
1. Professional services including: costs of studies and surveys, development plans and specifications, implementation and administration of the Plan including, but not limited to, staff and professional service costs, and including, but not limited to, architectural, engineering, legal, marketing, financial, planning or other special services, provided however, that no charges for professional services may be based on a percentage of the tax increment collected.
2. Property assembly costs, including, but not limited to, acquisition of land and other property, real or personal, or rights or interests therein, demolition of buildings, reimbursement of acquisition costs incurred by private developers and the clearing and grading of land.
3. Costs of rehabilitation, reconstruction, repair or remodeling of existing public or private buildings and fixtures.
4. Costs ofthe construction of public works or improvements.
5. Costs of job training and retraining projects, advanced vocational education or career education, including but not limited to courses in occupational, semi-technical or technical fields leading directly to employment, incurred by one (1) or more taxing districts as provided in the Act.

6. Financing costs, including, but not limited to, all necessary and incidental expenses related to the issuance of obligations and, which may include payment of interest on any obligations issued under the Act, accruing during the estimated period of construction of any redevelopment project for which such obligations are issued and not exceeding thirty-six (36) months thereafter and including reasonable reserves related thereto.
7. All, or a portion, of a taxing district's capital costs resulting from the Redevelopment Project necessarily incurred, or to be incurred, in furtherance of the Plan, to the extent the City, by written agreement, accepts and approves such costs.
8. Relocation costs, to the extent that the City determines that relocation costs shall be paid, or that the City is required to make payment of relocation costs by state or federal law.
9. Payment in lieu of taxes.
10. Interest costs incurred by • a developer related to site-specific redevelopment, as provided in the Act.
The cost of constructing new privately-owned buildings is not an eligible redevelopment, project cost, .unless specifically authorized by the Act.
In the event the Act is amended after the date ofthe approval of this Plan by the City Council of Chicago to (a) include new eligible redevelopment project costs (such as, for example, to include the cost of construction of residential housing), or (b) expand the scope or increase the amount of existing eligible redevelopment project costs (such as, for example, by increasing the amount of incurred interest costs that may be paid under 65 ILCS 5/11 -74.4-3(q)(l 1)) this Plan shall be deemed to incorporate such additional, expanded or increased eligible costs as eligible costs under the Redevelopment Plan. In the event of such amendment(s), the City may add any new eligible redevelopment project costs as a line item in Table 3, Estimated Redevelopment Project Costs, which sets, forth the T.LF. eligible costs for the Plan, or otherwise adjust the line items in Table 3 without amendment to this Plan. •

The estimated gross eligible project cost over the twenty-three (23) year period is Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000). All project cost estimates are in 1999 dollars. Any bonds issued to finance portions of the redevelopment project may include an amount of proceeds sufficient to pay customary and reasonable charges associated with issuance of such obligations, as well as to provide for capitalized interest and reasonably required reserves. The total project cost figure excludes any costs for the issuance of bonds. Adjustments to estimated line items, which are upper estimates for these costs, are expected and may be made without amendment to this Plan.
Sources Of Funds.
Funds necessary to pay for redevelopment project costs and municipal obligations, which have been issued to pay for such costs, are to be derived principally from tax increment revenues and proceeds from municipal obligations, which have as their source of payment, tax increment revenue. To secure the issuance of these obligations, the City may permit the utilization of guarantees, deposits and other forms of security made available by private sector developers.
2. The .total Estimated Redevelopment Project Costs exclude any additional financing costs, including any interest expense, capitalized interest and costs associated with optional redemptions. These costs are subject to prevailing market conditions and are in addition to Total Project Costs. The amount of the Total Redevelopment Costs that can be incurred in the Area will be reduced by the amount of redevelopment project costs incurred in contiguous redevelopment project areas, or those separated from the Area only by a public right-of-way, that are permitted under the Act to be paid, and are paid, from incremental property taxes generated in the Area, but will not be reduced by the amount of redevelopment project costs incurred in the Area which are paid from incremental taxes generated from contiguous redevelopment project areas.

The tax increment revenue, which will be used to fund tax increment obligations and redevelopment project costs, shall be the incremental real property taxes. Incremental real property tax revenue is attributable to the increase in the current equalized assessed value of each taxable lot, block, tract or parcel of real property in the Area over and above the initial equalized assessed value of each such property in the Area. Other sources of funds, which may be used to pay for redevelopment costs and obligations issued, the proceeds of which are used to pay for such costs, are land disposition proceeds, state and federal grants, investment income and such other sources of funds and revenues as the City may, from time to time, deem appropriate. The City may incur Redevelopment Project Costs which are paid for from funds of the City other than incremental taxes and the City may then be reimbursed for such costs from incremental taxes
The Area may, in the future, be contiguous to, or be separated only by a public right-of-way from, other redevelopment project areas created under the Act. The City may utilize net incremental property taxes received from the Area to pay eligible project costs, or obligations issued to pay such costs, in other contiguous redevelopment project areas, or those separated only by a public right-of-way and vice versa. The amount of revenue from the Area, made available to support such contiguous redevelopment project areas, or those separated only by a public right-of-way, when added to all amounts used to pay eligible Redevelopment Project Costs within the Area, shall not at any time exceed the total Redevelopment Project Costs described in this Plan.
The Area may become contiguous to, or be separated only by a public right-of-way from, redevelopment project areas created under the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law (65 ILCS 5/11-74.6 1-1, et seq.). If the City finds that the goals, objectives and financial success of such contiguous redevelopment project areas, or those separated only by a public right-of-way, are interdependent with those of the Area, the City may determine that it is in the best interests of the City, and in furtherance of the purposes of the Plan, that net revenues from the Area be made available to support any such redevelopment project areas and vice versa. The City therefore proposes to utilize net incremental revenues received from the Area to pay eligible redevelopment project costs (which .are eligible under the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law referred to above) in any such areas, and vice versa. Such revenues may be transferred or loaned between the Area and such areas. The amount of revenue from' the Area made available, when added to all . amounts used to pay eligible Redevelopment Project Costs within the Area, or other areas described in the preceding paragraph, shall not at any time exceed the total Redevelopment Project. Costs described in Table 3.

Development of the Area would not be reasonably expected to occur without the use of the incremental revenues provided by the Act. Redevelopment project costs include those eligible project costs set forth in the Act. Tax increment financing or other public sources will be used only to the extent needed to secure commitments for private redevelopment activity.
Nature And Term Of Obligations To Be Issued.
The City may issue obligations secured by the tax increment special tax allocation fund, established for the Area, pursuant to the Act or such other funds or security as are available to the City by virtue of its powers, available under the Act, pursuant to the Illinois State Constitution.
All obligations issued by the City in order to implement this Plan shall be retired within twenty-three (23) years from the adoption of the ordinance approving the original Area. The final maturity date of any such obligations which are issued may not be later than twenty (20) years from their respective dates of issuance. One (1) or more series of obligations may be sold at one (1) or more times in order to implement this Plan. The City may also issue obligations to a developer as reimbursement for project costs incurred by the developer on behalf of the City.
Revenues shall be used for the scheduled and/or early retirement of obligations, and for reserves, bond sinking funds and redevelopment project costs, and, to the extent that the real property tax increment is not used for such purposes, shall be declared surplus and shall then become available for distribution annually to taxing districts in the Area in the manner provided by the Act.
Most Recent Equalized Assessed Valuation.
The purpose of identifying the most recent equalized assessed valuation ("E.A.V.") of the Area is to provide an estimate of the initial E.A.V., which the Cook County Clerk will certify for the purpose of annually calculating the incremental E.A.V. and incremental property taxes of the Area. The 1997 E.A.V. of all taxable parcels in the Area is Fourteen Million Three Hundred Sixty-two Thousand Two Hundred Forty-seven Dollars ($14,362,247). This total E.A.V. amount by P.I.N, is summarized in Appendix C The E.A.V. is subject to verification by the Cook County Clerk.
 
9/29/99
REPORTS. OF COMMITTEES
11445
After verification, the final figure shall be certified by the Cook County Clerk and shall become the Certified Initial E.A.V. from which all incremental property taxes in the Area will be calculated by Cook County.
This Plan has utilized E.A.V. values for the 1997 tax year. If the 1998 E.A.V. shall become available prior to the date of the adoption of this Plan by the City Council, the City may update the Plan by replacing the 1997 E.A.V. with the 1998 E.A.V. without further City Council action.
Anticipated Equalized Assessed Valuation.
Once the redevelopment project has been completed and the property is fully assessed, the equalized assessed valuation pf real property within the Area is estimated at Twenty-five Million Dollars ($25,000,000). This estimate has been calculated assuming that the Area will be developed in accordance with Figure 4, General Land-Use Plan,, ofthis Plan. ■
The estimated E.A.V. assumes that the assessed value of property within the Area will increase substantially as a result of new development within the Area.
Calculation ofthe estimated E.A.V. is based on several assumptions, including: 1) redevelopment of the IIIth Street/Kedzie Avenue Business, District Redevelopment Project Area will occur in a timely manner; 2) the application of a State Multiplier of 2.1240 to the projected assessed value-of property within the Redevelopment Project Area; and 3) an annual inflation factor of two and five-tenths percent (2.5%). The projected State Multiplier was calculated by averaging the State Multipliers for Cook County for the most recent five (5) year period (1992 - 1996).
Financial Impact On Taxing Districts.
In 1994, the Act was amended to require an assessment of any financial impact of the Area on, or any increased demand for services from, any taxing district affected by the Plan and a description of any program to address such financial impacts or increased demand. The City intends to monitor development in the Area and with the cooperation of the other affected taxing districts will-attempt to ensure that any increased needs are addressed in connection with any particular development.
The following taxing districts presently levy taxes on properties located within the Area:

9/29/99 ■ REPORTS OF COMMITTEES 11447
The proposed revitalization of the Area is not expected to create residential development that would increase demand for schools, parks and other population-based services. Anticipated redevelopment may generate an increased demand for services and/ or capital improvements resulting from new commercial activity to be provided by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District and the City of Chicago. The estimated nature of these increased demands for services on these taxing districts are described below:
Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago. The proposed revitalization and redevelopment may cause increased demand for the services and/ or capital improvements provided by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District.
City of Chicago. The proposed revitalization and redevelopment may increase the demand for services and programs provided by the City, including police protection, fire protection, sanitary collection, recycling, et cetera.
Redevelopment of the Area may result in changes to the level of required public services. The required level of these public services will depend upon the uses that are ultimately included within the Area. Although the specific nature and timing of the private investment expected to be attracted to the Area cannot be precisely quantified at this time, a general assessment of financial impact can be made based upon the level of development and timing anticipated by the proposed Plan.
When completed, developments in the Area will generate property tax revenues for all taxing districts. Other revenues may also accrue to the City in the form of sales tax, business fees and licenses, and utility user fees. The costs of some services such as water and sewer service, building inspections, et cetera, are typically covered by user charges. However, others are not and should be subtracted from the estimate of property tax revenues to assess the net financial impact of the Plan on the affected taxing districts
For most of the taxing districts levying taxes on property within the Area, increased service demands are expected to be negligible because they are already serving the Area. Upon completion of the Plan, all taxing districts are expected to share the benefits of a substantially improved tax base. However, prior to the completion of the Plan, certain taxing districts may experience an increased demand for services.
Three (3) City of Chicago operated facilities are currently located within the project area: 1) the Chicago Fire Department facility on West IIIth Street,
 
11448
JOURNAL—CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO . 9/29/99
between South Albany Avenue and South Troy Street; 2) a recently built Mount Greenwood Branch of the Chicago Public Library, on the southwest corner of South Kedzie Avenue and West 110th Street; and 3) the Mount Greenwood Park. The only other government facility is the United States Post Office located on the southeast corner of West 111th Street and South Homan Avenue.
It is expected that, any increase in demand for the services and programs of the aforementioned taxing districts, associated with the Area, can be adequately handled by the existing services and programs maintained by these taxing districts. Therefore, at this time, no special programs are proposed for these taxing districts. Should demand increase so that it exceeds existing service and program capabilities, the City will work with the affected taxing districts to determine what, if any, program is necessary to provide adequate services.
Real estate tax revenues resulting from increases in the equalized assessed value, over and above the certified initial E.A.V. established with the adoption of this Plan, will be used to pay eligible redevelopment costs in the Area. At the end of such period, the real estate tax revenues, attributable to the increase in the equalized assessed value over the certified initial E.A.V., will be distributed to all taxing districts levying taxes against property located in the Area. Successful implementation of this Redevelopment Plan is expected to result in new development and private investment on a scale sufficient to overcome blighted conditions and substantially improve the long-term economic value of the Redevelopment Project Area.
Completion Of The Redevelopment Project And Retirement Of Obligations To Finance Redevelopment Project Costs.
This Plan will be completed, including the retirement of any obligations issued to finance improvements, on or before a date twenty-three (23) years from the adoption' of the ordinance designating the Area. Improvements will be phased and scheduled to facilitate redevelopment of the Area, in accordance with the Redevelopment Plan.

Project Area qualifies for designation as a tax increment financing district pursuant to the "Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act" (65 ILCS 5/11-74.1, et seq.) (1996 State"Bar Edition), as amended (the "Act"). This legislation focuses on the elimination of blight or rapid deterioration through the implementation of a redevelopment plan. The Act authorizes the use of tax increment revenues derived in a Redevelopment Project Area for the payment or reimbursement of eligible redevelopment project costs.
The area proposed for designation as the 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Redevelopment Project Area is hereinafter referred to as the "Study Area" and is shown in Figure A.
The Study Area is approximately eighty-six (86) acres in size and includes two hundred fifty-six (256) tax parcels located on twenty-eight (28) tax blocks. All two hundred fifty-six (256) parcels are improved and one hundred forty-two (142) parcels contain buildings. The Study Area includes only contiguous parcels and street right-of-way.
This report summarizes the analyses and findings of the consultant's work, which, unless otherwise noted, is solely the responsibility of Camiros, Ltd. and its subconsultants, and does not necessarily reflect the views and opinions of potential developers or the City. However, the City is entitled to rely on the findings and conclusions of this report in designating the Study Area as a redevelopment project area under the Act.
J.
Introduction.
The Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act permits municipalities to induce redevelopment of eligible "blighted", "conservation" or "industrial park conservation areas" in accordance with an adopted redevelopment plan. The Act stipulates specific procedures which must be adhered to in designating a redevelopment project area. One of those procedures is the determination that the area meets the statutory eligibility requirements. At 65 Sec 5/1 l-74.4-3(p), the Act defines a "redevelopment project area", as:
... an area designated by the municipality, which is not less in the aggregate than one and one-half (IVi) acres, and in respect to which the municipality has made a finding that there exist conditions which cause the area to be classified as an industrial park conservation area or.a blighted area or a
 
11452
JOURNAL-CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
conservation area, or combination of both blighted areas and conservation areas.
In adopting the Act, the Illinois General Assembly found:
1. (at 65 Sec 5/1 l-74.4-2(a)) that there exists in many municipalities within the State blighted and conservation areas,; and
2. (at 65 Sec 5/ll-74.4-2(b)) that the .eradication of blighted areas and the treatment and improvement of conservation areas by redevelopment projects is hereby declared to be essential to the public interest.
The legislative findings were made on the basis that the presence of blight, or conditions which lead to blight, is detrimental to the safety, health, welfare and morals of the public. The Act specifies certain requirements which must be met before a municipality may proceed with implementing a redevelopment project in order to ensure that the exercise of these powers is proper and in the public interest.
Before the tax increment financing technique can be used, the municipality must first determine that the proposed redevelopment area qualifies for designation as a blighted area, conservation area, or an industrial park conservation area. Based on the conditions present, this eligibility report finds that the Study Area qualifies for designation as a "conservation area".
Conservation Areas.
Conservation areas are areas which are rapidly deteriorating and declining. Such areas are not yet blighted, but may soon become blighted areas if their decline is not checked. Establishing an area as a "conservation area" under the Act requires that fifty percent (50%) or more of the structures in the area must be thirty-five (35) years of age or older, and the presence of three (3) or more of the following fourteen (14) factors:
Abandonment.
Deleterious land-use or layout. Deterioration.
 
9/29/99
REPORTS OF COMMITTEES
11453
Depreciation of physical maintenance.
Dilapidation.
Excessive land coverage.
Illegal use of individual structures.
Excessive vacancies. '
Lack of community planning.
Lack of ventilation, light or sanitary facilities.
Obsolescence.
Overcrowding of structures and community facilities.
Presence of structures below minimum code standards. . .
Inadequate utilities.
Although the Act defines conservation areas, it does not define when the factors present qualify ah area for such designation. Therefore, it is necessary, to establish reasonable and defensible criteria to support each local finding that serves to qualify an area as a conservation area.
The presence and documentation of the minimum number of factors may be sufficient to establish eligibility for designation as a conservation area. However, this evaluation was made on the basis that such factors should be present to an extent which would lead reasonable persons to conclude that public intervention is appropriate, or necessary, in the Study Area. In other words, each factor identified should be present to a meaningful degree so .that a local governing body may reasonably find that the factor is clearly present within the intent of the Act. Similarly, factors should be reasonably distributed throughout the Study Area so that areas largely free of blighting conditions are not arbitrarily found to be eligible because of their proximity to areas which are eligible.
The test of eligibility of the Study Area is based on the conditions of the area as a whole. The Act does not require that eligibility be established for each and every property in the Study Area.......................- •■•

Eligibility Studies And Analysis.
An analysis was undertaken to determine whether any or all of the blighting factors listed in the Act are present in the Study Area and, if so, to what extent and in which locations.
In order to accomplish this evaluation, the following tasks were undertaken:
1. Exterior survey of the condition and use of each building.
2. Field survey of environmental conditions involving parking facilities, public infrastructure, site access, fences and general property maintenance.
3. Analysis of existing land uses and their relationships.
4. Comparison of surveyed buildings to zoning regulations.
5. Analysis of the current platting, building size and layout.
6. Analysis of building floor area and site coverage.
7. Review of previously prepared plans, studies, inspection reports and other data.
8. Analysis of real estate assessment.data.
9. Review of available building permit records to determine the level of development activity in the area.
■   10.   Review of building code violations.
An exterior building conditions survey, and a site conditions survey ofthe area, was undertaken in January, 1999.: The analysis of conditions is organized by tax block. The Study Area contains twenty-eight (28) tax blocks, as shown in Figure B.
Where a factor is described as being present to a major extent, the factor is present throughout major portions of the Study Area. The presence of such conditions have a major adverse impact or influence on adjacent and nearby

development. A factor described as being present to a minor extent indicates that the factor is present, but that the distribution or impact of the condition is limited. A statement that a factor is not present indicates that either no information was available or that no evidence was documented as a result of the various surveys and analyses. Factors whose presence could not be determined with certainty were not considered in establishing eligibility.
Each factor identified in the Act for determining whether an area qualifies as a conservation area is discussed below and a conclusion is presented as to whether or not the factor is present in the study area to a degree sufficient to warrant its inclusion in establishing the eligibility of the area as a "conservation area" under the Act. These findings describe the conditions that exist and the extent to which each factor is present.
3.
Presence And Distribution Of.-Eligibility. .Factors
Within the Study Area, all two hundred fifty-six (256) parcels were defined as improved. For this reason, all tax parcels were analyzed for eligibility based on factors for improved property. Improved property includes parcels that contain buildings, structures, parking or other physical improvements. • Improved property may also include single parcels, or multiple parcels, under a single or common ownership. Landscaped yards, open space or other accessory functions may also be classified as improved property for the purposes of the eligibility analysis, if they are an obvious part of adjacent buildings.
In order to establish the eligibility of a Redevelopment Project Area under the "conservation area" criteria established in the Act, at least fifty percent (50%) of buildings within the Area must be thirty-five. (35) years of age or older. In addition, three (3) of fourteen (14) eligibility factors must be present and reasonably distributed throughout the Study Area. This eligibility study finds that the Study Area qualifies for designation asa "conservation area". Seventy-five percent (75%) of all buildings within the Study Area are at least thirty-five (35) years of age. This is substantially more than the minimum of fifty percent (50%) required by the Act for designation. Additionally, six (6) of the conditions cited in the-Act are present within the Study Area. These six (6) conditions are all present to a major extent and include: deleterious land-use or layout, depreciation of physical maintenance, obsolescence, excessive land coverage, lack of community planning and presence .of structures below, minimum code standards.
 
11456
JOURNAL-CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
The presence and distribution of all eligibility factors are discussed below. Following the discussion of age, fourteen (14) additional conditions that were analyzed are presented in three (3) sections: factors present to a major extent, factors not found to be present, and factors whose presence could not be determined.
Age.
The age of a structure is often a key indicator of the relative usefulness of a piece of property. Older structures frequently require extensive maintenance in order to maintain mechanical systems or maintain structural integrity. The costs involved in maintaining and upgrading aging buildings often create adverse impacts on existing users and create impediments to the marketability and reuse of industrial or commercial structures.
In establishing a conservation area under the Act, the age of thirty-five (35) years is used as an indication of the point at which it becomes a potentially blighting factor with respect to structures within a study area. For buildings intended for long-term occupancy, this is the point at which building systems can be expected to begin to fail, and building types may become obsolete, as a result of changing technology or use. For buildings that are designed for a shorter life span, age can become a blighting factor even in relatively new buildings.
Seventy-five percent- (75%) of buildings within the Study Area are more than thirty-five (35) years old, substantially more than the fifty percent (50%) required under the Act for designation of a conservation area. Ofthe twenty-eight (28) tax blocks in the Study Area, older buildings are present to a major extent on thirteen (13) blocks and to a minor extent on nine (9) blocks.
The following discussion describes the extent to which each ofthe fourteen (14) eligibility factors for designation of a conservation area are present within the Study Area.
Factors Present To A Major Extent.
Deleterious Land-Use Or Layout.
Deleterious land uses include instances of incompatible land-use relationships, single-purpose buildings converted to accommodate other activity, buildings occupied by inappropriate mixed uses, or uses which may be considered noxious, offensive or environmentally unsuitable. This condition also exists if
 
9/29/99
REPORTS OF COMMITTEES
11457
any of the following are present:
Platting does not conform to current development codes with respect to lot size, configuration and public access.
Parcels are of inadequate size or shape for contemporary development.
Land uses are non-conforming with respect to current zoning.
There are land-use conflicts with adjacent land uses.
Single purpose buildings have been converted to accommodate another activity, or buildings are occupied by inappropriate mixed uses.
Residential uses front on, or near, heavily traveled streets, thus causing susceptibility to noise, fumes and glare.
Structures are located in a one hundred (100) year flood plain.
Environmental contamination is present, which hampers reuse.
This factor is present to a major extent, affecting fifty-four percent (54%) of the parcels within the Study Area (or one hundred thirty-eight (138) of two hundred fifty-six (256)). Of the twenty-eight (28) tax blocks in the Study Area, this factor was present to a major extent on twelve (12) and to a minor extent on eight (8). Parcels are of inadequate size and shape for modern commercial development. They are characterized by narrow lot widths and insufficient lot depths. Minimal off-street parking is provided for commercial employees or customers. There are several instances of land-use conflicts between commercial and residential uses, as well as instances of conflicts between commercial and industrial uses.
Depreciation Of Physical Maintenance.
This factor refers to the effects of deferred maintenance or lack of maintenance of buildings, improvements and grounds! This condition is present where buildings have unpainted or unfinished surfaces, peeling paint, limited amounts of loose, or missing, materials, broken windows, deteriorated gutters and downspouts, or are in need of minor tuck pointing. Deterioration of streetlights, sidewalks, curbs and . gutters adjacent .to the. building, the presence of construction debris, deteriorated parking areas or parking areas that exhibit an accumulation of trash or debris also are indicative of depreciation of physical maintenance.
 
11458
JOURNAL—CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
Depreciation of Physical Maintenance was found to be a significant blighting factor. Fifty-four percent (54%) of all parcels (or one hundred thirty-eight (138) of two hundred fifty-six (256)) in the Study Area evidenced this condition. Ofthe twenty-eight (28) tax blocks in the Study Area, this factor was present to a major extent on eighteen (18) and to a minor extent on six (6).
Excessive Land Coverage.
This condition is present when buildings occupy all, or most, of the lot, leaving, little or no space for off-street parking, off-street loading and open space amenities. Problem conditions include buildings that are improperly situated on the parcel or buildings that are located on parcels of inadequate size and shape in relation to contemporary standards of development, health or safety. The resulting inadequate conditions include insufficient provision for light and air, increased threat of the spread of fires, due to the close, proximity of nearby buildings, lack of adequate or proper access to a public right-of-way, lack of required off-street parking, or inadequate provision for loading and service. Excessive land coverage frequently has an adverse or blighting influence on nearby development.
This condition is present to a major extent throughout the Study Area. Overall, fifty-five percent (55%) of all structures (seventy-eight (78).of one hundred forty-two (142)) were found to exhibit this condition. Of the twenty-eight (28) tax blocks in the Study Area, this factor was present to a major extent on six (6) and to a minor extent on seventeen (17) blocks. Most commercial buildings occupy all, or most, of their sites, leaving little opportunity to provide off-street parking or loading facilities.
Obsolescence.
Functional obsolescence is characterized by buildings designed for a single, or specific, purpose or use, buildings of inadequate size to accommodate alternative uses, or buildings using a type of construction which limits long term use and marketability. Site improvements such as water and sewer lines,.public utility lines, roadways, parking areas; parking structures, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, and lighting may be inadequate or obsolete in relation to contemporary standards for such improvements. Functional obsolescence includes poor design or layout, improper orientation of the building on the site, inadequate loading facilities, height, or - other, factors which' detract from the overall usefulness or desirability of the property. As an inherent deficiency, functional obsolescence results in a loss in property value.
 
9/29/99
REPORTS OF COMMITTEES
11459
Economic obsolescence may be evidenced by a variety of factors including deterioration of the physical environment, streets of inadequate width, or parcels of inadequate size or irregular shape which prevent reasonable development. This condition is often a result of adverse conditions, which cause some degree of market rejection and, therefore, a depreciation of market values.
The presence of this condition is demonstrated by the many narrow commercial buildings along West 111th Street that lack adequate off-street parking and loading facilities, and which therefore cannot be easily marketed for commercial uses. This condition was found to be present to a major extent throughout the Study Area, with seventy-eight (78) of one hundred forty-two (142) structures, or fifty-five percent (55%), being classified as obsolete. Of the twenty-eight (28) tax blocks'in the Study Area, this factor was present to a major extent on six (6) and to a minor extent on seventeen (17).
Lack Of Community Planning.
This factor is present if the proposed redevelopment project area developed prior to, or without the benefit and guidance of a community plan. This means that no plan for the overall development of the community existed, the community's plan was inadequate, or that the plan was ignored at the time the area was developed.
Lack of community planning is also indicated when there are inadequate public utilities, or plans for utility improvements,'that would allow the property to be developed in accordance with the intensity of use identified in the municipality's comprehensive plan or zoning ordinance or other economic development plans for the area. This factor is also present if public improvements serving the site, including streets, streetlights and other utility systems, do not meet current municipal standards. Similarly, lack of community planning is indicated- if private improvements, including parking lots, screening and organization of buildings within the site, do not meet accepted community development standards.
Conditions resulting from a lack of community planning include the existence of incompatible land uses, the lack of proper development of vacant or improved sites, and the presence of inconsistent platting, including parcels of small or irregular shapes, the presence of nonconforming uses with respect to zoning, inadequate street layout or improper subdivision. .:
This condition is prevalent to a major extent throughout the Study Area. The pattern of land-use, organization of public improvements and traffic conditions within the Study Area evidence a lack of community planning. The pattern of
 
11460
JOURNAL—CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
land-use within the Study Area is comprised of a mix of commercial, public, institutional and residential uses. While a mix of uses can contribute to the vitality of a business area, the proportions and manner in which these mixed uses are organized makes it difficult to sustain a healthy level of business activity. The area west of South Central Park. Avenue, in particular, contains a mix use in which there is not enough commercial use to sustain a healthy level of business activity. The south side of West 111th Street, between South Central Park Avenue and South Pulaski Road, is comprised entirely of school and park/open space uses, making it difficult for commercial uses on the north side of the street to prosper. With proper planning, the pattern of use could have been organized to place uses in locations more suitable for their function.
In addition, inconsistencies in the platting of public rights-of-way, particularly alleys, have created circulation problems and have complicated access to property. Traffic congestion conflicts with on-street parking, making it difficult to access commercial properties from the street. Furthermore, no evidence exists of this Area being the subject of a comprehensive planning study, prior to the 1997 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Improvement Plan. While the 1997 plan outlined a series of proposals for addressing problems in the business district, these problems were long standing and due, in part, to a prior lack of community planning. Ofthe twenty-eight (28) tax blocks in the Study Area, this factor was present to a major extent on twelve (12) and to a minor extent on six (6) blocks. .   ' - ;
Presence Of Structures Below Minimum Code Standards.
This factor is present when structures do not conform with local standards of building, fire, housing, zoning, subdivision or other applicable governmental codes. Structures below minimum code standards include all buildings which do not meet the standards of zoning, subdivision, building, housing, fire, property maintenance or other governmental codes applicable to. the property. The principal purposes of such codes are to require that buildings be constructed in such a way that they can sustain the loads expected from the type of occupancy and are safe for occupancy against fire and similar hazards, and/or to establish minimum standards for safe and sanitary habitation. Buildings below minimum code are characterized by . defects or deficiencies which threaten health and safety.
This factor is present to a major extent within the Study Area. More than half of the buildings on fifteen (15) of the twenty-eight (28) tax blocks (fifty-four percent (54%)) had code violations. On another ten (10) blocks, code violations were also present but affected less than fifty percent (50%) of the buildings on the block. Ofthe one hundred forty-two (142) buildings within the Study Area,

fifty-two (52) or thirty-seven percent (37%) have been cited with code violations since 1994 according to City records. Many of these buildings exhibit a pattern of chronic code violations over a ten (10) to fifteen (15) year period.
Factors Not Found To Be Present. Abandonment.
Abandoned buildings reflect property in which all apparent use of, or interest in, the structure by the owner has been discontinued. Unlike vacant buildings, for which new users are being sought, abandoned property generally shows no evidence of ongoing maintenance or marketing. Such property is frequently also deteriorated or dilapidated, and may have tax delinquencies or contain environmental contaminants which limit its economic-value and reuse potential. The presence of substantial numbers of abandoned buildings in an area can discourage private investment and lead to further decline.
This condition was not found to be present within the Study Area to a degree sufficient to merit its inclusion as a blighting factor. No abandoned buildings were identified within the Study Area.
Deterioration.
This condition is present when there are physical deficiencies in buildings or site improvements requiring treatment or repair. Deterioration may be present in basically sound buildings that contain defects that can be corrected. Deterioration that is not easily correctable, and cannot be accomplished during the course of normal maintenance, may also be evident. Examples of conditions that indicate deterioration include loose or missing materials, major cracks in masonry walls, rusted support beams and columns, and deteriorated roofs requiring replacement or major repair. Such defects may involve either primary building components (foundations, walls, roofs) or secondary building components (doors, windows,- porches, fascia materials, gutters and downspouts). All buildings classified as dilapidated are also considered to be deteriorating.
Deterioration was not found to be present within the Study Area to a significant extent. Overall, eight (8) out of one hundred forty-two (142) buildings, or six percent (6%), were found to be deteriorated. Of the twenty-eight (28) tax blocks in the Study Area, this factor was present to a major extent on none and to a minor extent on two (2) blocks.

JOURNAL—CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
Dilapidation.
This factor reflects a substandard condition of a building's foundation, wall or roof elements where deterioration has occurred to such an extent that rehabilitation is not practical or economically feasible. Such structures typically exhibit major structural fatigue, such as leaning or warped walls, bowed or sagging roofs, or cracked or missing foundation walls.
Dilapidation was not found to be present within the Study Area. No structures were found to be dilapidated.
Excessive Vacancies.
This condition is present when the occupancy, or use level, of a building is low for frequent or lengthy periods. The presence of buildings or sites which are unoccupied or underutilized generally represents an adverse influence on the area. Excessive vacancies include abandoned properties which evidence no apparent effort directed toward their occupancy or utilization.
Excessive Vacancies were not found to be present within the Study Area to a significant extent. Only three (3) buildings or two percent (2%) out of the one hundred forty-two (142) total were identified, as evidenced by empty or partially empty commercial buildings. Of the twenty-eight (28) tax blocks in the Study Area, this factor was present to a major extent on none and a minor extent on two (2) blocks.
Factor's Whose Presence Could Not Be Determined.
Illegal Use Of Individual Structures.
Illegal use of individual structures refers to the presence of uses or activities which are not permitted by law. This condition also exists when the use of a structure does not conform to the requirements of the existing zoning code.
This condition could not be assessed with certainty within the Study Area and therefore is not considered present to a degree sufficient to warrant its inclusion as a blighting factor. Almost all buildings are being used for their original purpose and appear to conform to the City of Chicago Zoning Ordinance.

Lack Of Ventilation, Light Or Sanitary Facilities.
Conditions, such as lack of indoor plumbing, lack of adequate windows, or other means of providing ventilation or light, can negatively influence the health and welfare of a buildings residents or users. Typical requirements for ventilation, light and sanitary facilities include:
Adequate mechanical ventilation for air circulation in rooms without windows, such as bathrooms, and dust, odor or smoke producing activity areas.
Adequate natural light and ventilation by means of skylights or windows for interior rooms, with proper window sizes and amounts by room area to window area ratios.
Adequate sanitary facilities, including garbage storage, bathroom facilities, hot water and kitchens.
The presence of this factor could not be assessed through the exterior building condition survey, and other available information, to a degree sufficient to warrant its inclusion as a blighting factor present within the Study Area.
Overcrowding Of Structures And Community Facilities.
This condition exists when a structure or community facility has reached a level of use beyond a designed or legally permitted level. Overcrowding is often found in buildings originally designed for a specific use and later converted to accommodate a more intensive use without adequately meeting requirements for minimum floor area, privacy, ingress and egress, loading and services, or the capacity of building systems. Evidence of this condition may include the outside storage of materials that cannot be contained in enclosed buildings, or vehicles that cannot be.stored in buildings or enclosed storage yards.
This condition could not be assessed with certainty, and is therefore not considered present within the Study Area to a degree sufficient to warrant its inclusion as a blighting factor.
Inadequate Utilities. ....
This- factor exists in the absence of one (l) or more of the following utilities
 
11464
JOURNAL—CITY COUNCIL-CHICAGO 9/29/99
serving the site: gas, electricity, water, sanitary sewer or storm sewer. This factor is also present when the existing utilities are inadequate to accommodate the level of development permitted under current zoning, or envisioned under the comprehensive plan or adopted redevelopment plan for the area.
This factor does not appear to be present within the Study Area since all property is presently served by the appropriate utilities, and nearly all properties are in active use. As it could not be determined with certainty, it is not considered to be a blighting factor present within the Study Area.
4.
Determination Of Study Area Eligibility.
The Study Area qualifies for designation as a "conservation area". Seventy-five percent (75%) of all buildings within the Study Area are at least thirty-five (35) years of age. This is substantially more than the minimum of fifty percent (50%) required by the Act for designation.
Once the age requirement has been met, the presence of three (3) of fourteen (14) conditions is required for designation of improved property as a "conservation area". Ofthe conditions cited in the Act, six (6) are present within the Study Area. '
The conditions present to a major extent are:
Deleterious land-use or layout.
Depreciation of physical maintenance.
Obsolescence.
Excessive land coverage
Lack of community planning.
Presence of structures below minimum code.
All of these factors are reasonably distributed throughout the Study Area.

Based on the conditions present, the area is not likely to be effectively developed without the designation of all, or part, ofthe Study Area as a "conservation area" and the adoption of a tax increment redevelopment plan and project. The distribution of factors within the Study Area is presented in Table A, Distribution of Blighting Factors, shown on the following page.

OPINION OF DEVELOPER'S COUNSEL [To be retyped on the Developer's Counsel's letterhead]
City of Chicago City Hall, Room 600 121 North LaSalle Street Chicago, Illinois 60602
Attention: Corporation Counsel
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to _, an [Illinois]
_(the "Developer"), in connection with the purchase of certain land and
the   construction   of   certain   facilities   thereon    located   in the
_Redevelopment Project Area (the "Project").
In that capacity, we have examined, among other things, the following agreements, instruments and documents of even date herewith, hereinafter referred to as the "Documents":
(a)_Redevelopment Agreement (the "Agreement")
of even date herewith, executed by the Developer and the City of Chicago (the "City");
[(b) the Escrow Agreement of even date herewith executed by the Developer and the City;]
(c) [insert other documents including but not limited to documents related to purchase and financing of the Property and all lender financing related to the . Project]; and
69
 
(d) all other agreements, instruments and documents executed in connection with the foregoing.
In addition to the foregoing, we have examined
(a) the original or certified, conformed or photostatic copies of the Developer's (i) Articles of Incorporation, as amended to date, (ii) qualifications to do business and certificates of good standing in all states in which the Developer is qualified to do business, (iii) By-Laws, as amended to date, and (iv) records of all corporate proceedings relating to the Project [revise if the Developer is not a corporation]; and
(b) such other documents, records and legal matters as we have deemed necessary or relevant for purposes of issuing the opinions hereinafter expressed.
In all such examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than those of the Developer), the authenticity of documents submitted to us as originals and conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies.
Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that:
1. The Developer is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of [incorporation] [organization], has full power and authority to own and lease its properties and to carry on its business as presently conducted, and is in good standing and duly qualified to do business as a foreign [corporation] [entity] under the laws of every state in which the conduct of its affairs or the ownership of its assets requires such qualification, except for those states in which its failure to qualify to do business would not have a material adverse effect on it or its business.
2. The Developer has full right, power and authority to execute and deliver the Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. Such execution, delivery and performance will not conflict with, or result in a breach of, the Developer's [Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws] [describe any formation documents if the Developer is not a corporation] or result in a breach or other violation of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any law or regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court, government or regulatory authority, or, to the best of our knowledge after diligent inquiry, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any agreement, instrument or document to which the Developer is a party or by which the Developer or its properties is bound. To the best of our knowledge after diligent inquiry, such execution, delivery and performance will not constitute grounds for acceleration of the maturity of any agreement, indenture, undertaking or other instrument to which the Developer is a party or by which it or any of its property may be bound, or result in the
70
 
S:\Finance\lllth & Kedzie-Walgreens\RDA rev draft 10--Amended Ord.wpd
creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any lien, charge or encumbrance on, or security interest in, any of its property pursuant to the provisions of any of the foregoing, other than liens or security interests in favor of the lender providing Lender Financing (as defined in the Agreement).
3. The execution and delivery of each Document and the performance of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized and approved by all requisite action on the part of the Developer.
4. Each of the Documents to which the Developer is a party has been duly executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Developer, and each such Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Developer, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally.
5. Exhibit A attached hereto (a) identifies each class of capital stock of the Developer, (b) sets forth the number of issued and authorized shares of each such class, and (c) identifies the record owners of shares of each class of capital stock of the Developer and the number of shares held of record by each such holder. To the best of our knowledge after diligent inquiry, except as set forth on Exhibit A, there are no warrants, options, rights or commitments of purchase, conversion, call or exchange or other rights or restrictions with respect to any of the capital stock of the Developer. Each outstanding share of the capital stock of the Developer is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
6. To the best of our knowledge after diligent inquiry, no judgments are outstanding against the Developer, nor is there now pending or threatened, any litigation, contested claim or governmental proceeding by or against the Developer or affecting the Developer or its property, or seeking to restrain or enjoin the performance by the Developer of the Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, or contesting the validity thereof. To the best of our knowledge after diligent inquiry, the Developer is not in default with respect to any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court, government or regulatory authority or in default in any respect under any law, order, regulation or demand of any governmental agency or instrumentality, a default under which would have a material adverse effect on the Developer or its business.
7. To the best of our knowledge after diligent inquiry, there is no default by the Developer or any other party under any material contract, lease, agreement, instrument or commitment to which the Developer is a party or by which the company or its properties is bound.
71
 
8. To the best of our knowledge after diligent inquiry, all of the assets of the Developer are free and clear of mortgages, liens, pledges, security interests and encumbrances except for those specifically set forth in the Documents.
9. The execution, delivery and performance of the Documents by the Developer have not and will not require the consent of any person or the giving of notice to, any exemption by, any registration, declaration or filing with or any taking of any other actions in respect of, any person, including without limitation any court, government or regulatory authority.
10. To the best of our knowledge after diligent inquiry, the Developer owns or possesses or is licensed or otherwise has the right to use all licenses, permits and other governmental approvals and authorizations, operating authorities, certificates of public convenience, goods carriers permits, authorizations and other rights that are necessary for the operation of its business.
11. A federal or state court sitting in the State of Illinois and applying the choice of law provisions of the State of Illinois would enforce the choice of law contained in the Documents and apply the law of the State of Illinois to the transactions evidenced thereby.
We are attorneys admitted to practice in the State of Illinois and we express no opinion as to any laws other than federal laws of the United States of America and the laws of the State of Illinois
This opinion is issued at the Developer's request for the benefit ofthe City and its counsel, and may not be disclosed to or relied upon by any other person.
Very truly yours,

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
The Honorable Rahm Emanuel, Mayor Members of the City Council City of Chicago, Illinois
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Redevelopment Project of the City of Chicago, Illinois, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010, as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the City of Chicago's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements present only the 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Redevelopment Project and do not purport to, and do not present fairly the financial position of the City of Chicago, Illinois, as of December 31, 2010, and the changes in its financial position for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Redevelopment Project of the City of Chicago, Illinois, as of December 31, 2010, and the changes in financial position thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Management's Discussion and Analysis on pages 3 through 5 is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.
 
The Honorable Rahm Emanuel, Mayor Members of the City Council
-2-
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule of expenditures by statutory code on page 11, which is also the responsibility of the City of Chicago's management, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements of 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Redevelopment Project of the City of Chicago, Illinois. Such additional information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

CITY OF CHICAGO. ILLINOIS 111TH STREET/KEDZIE AVENUE BUSINESS DISTRICT REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED)
As management of the 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Tax Increment Redevelopment Project Area (Project), we offer the readers of the Project's financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the Project's financial performance for the year ended December 31, 2010. Please read it in conjunction with the Project's financial statements, which follow this section.
Overview ofthe Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the Project's basic financial statements. The Project's basic financial statements include three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) governmental fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information concerning the Project's expenditures by statutory code.
Basic Financial Statements
The basic financial statements include two kinds of financial statements that present different views of the Project - the Government-Wide Financial Statements and the Governmental Fund Financial Statements. These financial statements also include the notes to the financial statements that explain some of the information in the financial statements and provide more detail.
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements provide both long-term and short-term information about the Project's financial status and use accounting methods similar to those used by private-sector companies. The statement of net assets includes all of the project's assets and liabilities. All of the current year's revenues and expenses are accounted for in the statement of activities regardless of when cash is received or paid. The two government-wide statements report the Project's net assets and how they have changed. Net assets - the difference between the Project's assets and liabilities - is one way to measure the Project's financial health, or position.
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
The governmental fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the Project's significant funds - not the Project as a whole. Governmental funds focus on: 1) how cash and other financial assets can readily be converted to cash flows and 2) the year-end balances that are available for spending. Consequently, the governmental fund statements provide a detailed short-term view that helps determine whether there are more financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the Project. Because this information does not encompass the additional long-term focus of the government-wide statements, we provide additional information at the bottom of the statements to explain the relationship (or differences) between them.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and governmental fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements follow the basic financial statements.
Other Supplementary Information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents a schedule of expenditures by statutory code. This supplementary information follows the notes to the financial statements.
Condensed Comparative Financial Statements
The condensed comparative financial statements are presented on the following page. Analysis of Overall Financial Position and Results of Operations
Property tax revenue for the Project was $766,644 for the year. This was an increase of 40 percent over the prior year. The change in net assets produced a decrease in net assets of $144,481. The Project's net assets decreased by 5 percent from the prior year making available $2,695,485 of funding to be provided for purposes of future redevelopment in the Project's designated area. Expenses increased this year due to the Project's formulation of a redevelopment plan or necessary funding was substantially complete and available.

CITY OF CHICAGO. ILLINOIS 111TH STREET/KEDZIE AVENUE BUSINESS DISTRICT REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Reporting Entity
In September 1999, the City of Chicago (City) established the 111th Street/Kedzie Avenue Business District Tax Increment Redevelopment Project Area (Project). The area has been established to finance improvements, leverage private investment and create and retain jobs. The Project is accounted for within the capital projects and special revenue funds ofthe City.
(b) Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The accompanying financial statements of the Project have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). In June 1999, the GASB unanimously approved Statement No. 34 (as amended by Statement No. 37), Basic Financial Statements - Management's Discussion and Analysis - for State and Local Governments and at a later date, Statement No. 38 Certain Financial Statements Disclosures, and include the following:
A Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) section providing an analysis of the Project's overall financial position and results of operations.
Government-wide  financial  statements  prepared  using  the  economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting for all the Project's activities. Fund financial statements, which focus on the Project's governmental funds current financial resources measurement focus.
(c) Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statements Presentation
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied.
The governmental fund financial statements are prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting with only current assets and liabilities included on the balance sheet. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when susceptible to accrual, i.e., both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period. Available means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. Property taxes are susceptible to accrual and recognized as a receivable in the year levied. Revenue recognition is deferred unless the taxes are received within 60 days subsequent to year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the liability is incurred.
Private-sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989, generally are followed in government-wide financial statements to the extent that those standards do not conflict with or contradict guidance of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. The City has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources, as they are needed.

CITY OF CHICAGO. ILLINOIS 111TH STREET/KEDZIE AVENUE BUSINESS DISTRICT REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Concluded)
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.
(d) Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets Cash and Investments
Cash belonging to the City is generally deposited with the City Treasurer as required by the Municipal Code of Chicago. The City Comptroller issues warrants for authorized City expenditures which represent a claim for payment when presented to the City Treasurer. Payment for all City warrants clearing is made by checks drawn on the City's various operating bank accounts.
The City Treasurer and City Comptroller share responsibility for investing in authorized investments. Interest earned on pooled investments is allocated to participating funds based upon their average combined cash and investment balances.
The City values its investments at fair value or amortized cost. U.S. Government securities purchased at a price other than par with a maturity of less than one year are reported at amortized cost.
Capital Assets
Capital assets are not capitalized in the governmental funds but, instead, are charged as current expenditures when purchased. The Government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net assets and the statement of changes in net assets) of the City includes the capital assets and related depreciation, if any, of the Project in which ownership of the capital asset will remain with the City (i.e. infrastructure, or municipal building). All other construction will be expensed in both the government-wide financial statements and the governmental funds as the City nor Project will retain the right of ownership.
(e) Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability
Illinois Tax Increment Redevelopment Allocation Act Compliance
The Project's expenditures include reimbursements for various eligible costs as described in subsection (q) of Section 11-74.4-3 of the Illinois Tax Increment Redevelopment Allocation Act and the Redevelopment Agreement relating specifically to the Project. Eligible costs include but are not limited to survey, property assembly, rehabilitation, public infrastructure, financing and relocation costs.
Reimbursements
Reimbursements, if any, are made to the developer for project costs, as public improvements are completed and pass City inspection.
