TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council '
WA. ECONOMIC GROWTH
FROM: David M. Dorgan, City Manager
Raymond H. Moller, Director of Economic Development
and Business Services
SUBJECT: Development Agreement with CVS Pharmacy
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and
members of the City Council with information to approve a
development agreement between CVS Pharmacy and the City of
Elgin.
BACKGROUND
CVS Pharmacy is purchasing property located at 500 Dundee
Avenue. The property is currently owned by the Elgin Day Care
Center which purchased the property in order to relocate their
day care operation. Elgin Day Care has opted not to proceed
with the project at the Dundee Avenue site .
CVS intends to develop the property by constructing a CVS
Pharmacy facility of approximately 10, 880 square feet with site
improvements . The development at Dundee Avenue and Summit
Street is estimated to represent a significant dollar
involvement in land, building improvements, and equipment . The
project is expected to result in the creation of new jobs . The
site is located within the new Central Area Tax Increment
Financing (TIF) District . The CVS project was reviewed and
approved by the Zoning Board.
Based upon information provided by CVS, the facility will
generate $75, 000 per year in City sales tax revenue and $80, 000
per year in TIF property tax increments . Thus, over a ten year
period, the City of Elgin could receive $1, 555, 000 in revenue .
CVS Development Agreement
May 9, 2003
Page 2
During the due diligence process for the site, CVS determined
that soil and groundwater environmental contamination are
present . Estimated remediation costs are expected to reach
$480, 000 .
The capital improvements proposed by CVS will result in a
significant investment at this location and complement the
medical office redevelopment project located in the
Dundee/Summit TIF District site. As a result, staff is
recommending a $300, 000 development incentive grant to CVS .
Distribution of the incentive grant would occur in two phases :
1) Payment of $150, 000 upon demolition of the existing
building;
2) Payment of $150 , 000 upon issuance of occupancy permit
for the new pharmacy structure .
If an occupancy permit is not issued for a new pharmacy at 500
Dundee Avenue, the initial $150, 000 would be reimbursed to the
City. Should CVS or its successors discontinue operations prior
to the fifth anniversary of the occupancy permit, CVS would
refund a percentage portion of the incentive grant based on the
number of years they occupy the site . The $300, 000 incentive
grant would be recovered by the City within two years given the
projection of annual sales and property taxes totaling $155, 000 .
COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED
The Northeast Neighborhood Association has reviewed the project .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funds for this project were not included in the 2003 budget .
However, $300, 000 was budgeted in the Riverboat Fund, account
number 275-0000-791 . 92-31, project number 339636, to assist the
Elgin Day Care Center with the rehabilitation of the former
Elgin State Bank building at 500 Dundee Avenue . These funds are
available to be reprogrammed to the CVS project (project number
039560) .

LEGAL IMPACT
VA61//
A development agreement will be required.
ALTERNATIVES
1 . Provide the recommended development assistance to CVS and
proceed with the pharmacy project .
2 . Choose not to enter into a development agreement with CVS
and allow for the sale of 500 Dundee Avenue to a yet-to-be
determined developer.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve a development
agreement with CVS Pharmacy in the amount of $300, 000 to allow
for the development of a pharmacy at 500 Dundee Avenue .
Respectfully submitted for Council consideration.
