(:(2) etei May 7 , 1996 TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Richard B. Helwig, City Manager SUBJECT: Cook County Class 6b Real Estate Tax Incentive Bailey Development, L.L.C. PURPOSE To provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information regarding a request from Bailey Development L.L.C. for approval from the City for participation in the Cook County Class 6b Real Estate Tax Incentive Program. BACKGROUND In May of 1986 , the Cook County Board of Commissioners ap- proved an ordinance amending the Real Property Assessment Classification Ordinance to provide for real estate tax incen- tives for various types of nonresidential developments . The amended ordinance provides for three separate incentive class- es that apply to industrial and commercial developments . These are: Class 6 , which applies to industrial properties; Class 7 , which applies to commercial developments, and Class 8, which applies to both commercial and industrial properties under limited conditions . Since the adoption of the amended Cook County ordinance, the City has processed five real estate tax incentive requests under Class 6b of the ordinance. Among other prerequisites , Class 6b requires the local municipality to determine that development would not occur without the incentive. The City has not processed real estate tax incentive requests under any of the other provisions of the amended Cook County ordi- nance. ' n Basically, Class 6b is applicable to any manufacturing facili- ty which is newly developed, substantially rehabilitated, re-utilized following a prolonged vacancy, or located in a State of Illinois Certified Enterprise Zone. Class 6b pro- vides for a reduction of the Cook County real estate tax assessment factor for industrial properties from thirty-six percent to sixteen percent for eight years , twenty-three ' Bailey Development, L.L.C. May 7 , 1996 Page 2 percent for the ninth year, and thirty percent for the tenth. Thereafter, the assessed valuation is the full thir- ty-six percent of the fair market value. The State equaliza- tion most liz - tion factor for Cook County continues to apply. recent State equalization factor for Cook County is 2 . 1135 . The factor for Kane County is 1 .0588 . Since the equalization factor in Cook County is approximately two times that of Kane County, the 6b tax program brings the amount of taxes paid by the Cook County business on to an equal footing with those paid by Kane County businesses for a period of eight years . The City received a request for approval of a 6b tax incen- tive for 12 . 0 acres located on Gifford Road near Spaulding Road. In the course of City Council consideration of 6b requests in the past, a number of questions were raised re- garding real estate tax revenue for the City and School Dis- trict U-46 . Bailey is planning on building a new 46 , 000 square foot facil- ity on this property to manufacture precast concrete struc- tures . Construction is to commence this year with the 6b incentive in place . This facility will provide 30 to 50 jobs for Elgin. The jobs will be primarily factory jobs but will also include trucking, maintenance, accounting and administra- tion. The property is part of index number 06-30-400-005 and is zoned general Industrial . The entire parcel is 23 . 97 acres . The total 1994 taxes paid in 1995 for the index number was $1 , 980 . Of that total tax amount, $983 . 00 was allocated to Schoolt $447 . 00, or1ng 4 . 63 percent of the 22 . 57 percent of the total tal tax, tax. tax,Inaddition, was In allocated to the City of Elgin. Bailey purchased the property in 1996 for $360 , 000 . Bailey proposes to construct a 46 ,000 square foot industrial build- ing to manufacture precast concrete structures . The construc- tion costs are estimated at slightly over $2 ,4 00 , 000 . Howev- er, some of the construction costs are specific to the indus- t value. try and do o fair to markete value keof the subject r property t properrtywi estimatedwill the be approximately $2 , 000, 000 .

("Bailey") to the City of Elgin for a resolution supporting Bailey's Class 6b assessment application to the Cook County Assessor for the above-referenced property ("the Property"). The Property The Property consists of 12 acres of vacant land located on Gifford Road near the inoDerseetion of Spaulding Road, The Property is a section of what was formerly identified for tax purposes as P.I.N. 06-30-400-005. A copy of the survey and legal description of the Property is attached. An application for a tax division with a new P.I.N. is pending, The property will be assigned a new P.I.N. Copies of the first installment of the 1995 tax bill, Sidwell map, and the Assessor's printout for P,I.N, 06-30-400-005 are attached. Proposed Construction Bailey purchased the Property in 1996 for$360,000. Bailey proposes to construct a 50,000 sf. industrial building to manufacture precast concrete structures. The construction costs are estimated at slightly over$2,400,000±. However, some of the construction costs arc specific to the industry and do not add to the market value. After completion, the estimated fair market value of the subject will be $2,000,00Q±. SENT BY:FAGEL & HABER ; 5- 3-96 ;10:48AM ; FAGEL & HABER-, 17089315610;# 3/ 8 FAGEL 8 HABER ATTORNEYS AND COUN5ELORS Al Ltiv Mr. Raymond Moller May 2, 1996 Page 2 Necessity of the Class 6b Real a Tax; rwentiyg The development of the Property will increase the revenues to the City of Elgin. Additionally, without the incentive, the project is not economically feasible. The expenses of construction, equipment purchases, and payroll expenses will not be economically feasible without the Class 6b real estate tax incentive. The Class 6b incentive program provides for a 10 year reduced level of property tax assessment. The incentive reduces the assessed valuation from 36% of market value to 16% for eight years, and then to 23% in the ninth year, and 30% in the tenth year. In the portion of Elgin located in Cook County, assuming a 36% assessment level, a 10.8% tax rate, and a 2.1135 state equalizer, the effective tax rate for a manufacturing facility is approximately 8.21% of the property's market value (36% x 10% x 2.1407 = 8.21%). In the portion of Elgin located outside of Cook County, assuming a 33.33% assessment level, a 6.5% tax rate, and state equalizer of 1, the effective tax rate is approximately 2.16% of the property's market value (33.33% x 6.5% x 1 = 2.16%). Even with the Class 6b real estate tax incentive, the effective tax rate is approximately 3.4% of the fair market value (16% x 10.8% x 2.1135 = 3.4%), which is still higher than in Kane and other counties in Illinois. Moreover, the 3.4% effective tax rate only lasts for eight years and gradually increases back up to 8.21%. These percentages have serious impacts to a company looking to build a substantial industrial facility. As vacant land, the current assessment records show an assessment of 8,629 and an annual tax bill of$1,995. Even with the incentive, the Annual tax bill is expected to be almost $74,000. However, without the incentive, the taxes make the project too expensive to construct in Cook County. The following table provides a summary of the taxes based on all the different scenarios and clearly illustrates the need for the incentive: Market Value: ( $53 93� $2,000,000 $2,030,000 $2,000.000 Assessment Level: 16% 36% 16% 33% Assessed valuation: 8,629 720,000 320,000 660,000 State Equalizer: 2.1407 2.1407 2.1407 1.0000 Tax Kate: 10.800% 10.800% 10.800% Annual Taxes: $1,995 $166.461 $73,983 y4_2 90900 _ . c BY:FAflF1 & HABER ; 5- 3-96 ;10:48AM ; FAGEL & HABER-, 17089315610;# 4/ 8 FAGEL 6 HABER. ATTORNEYS AM)COUNSELORS AT LAIR' Mr. Raymond Moller May 2, 1996 Page 3 Conclusion This project will expand the economic base and employment for Elgin and the surrounding communities. The Property has been vacant and unproductive. Unless Bailey proceeds with this proposal, all indications are that the Property will remain vacant for a considerable time. The Cook County Assessor's office will not review an application for preliminary approval without a resolution from Elgin Park in support of the application. Bailey has been informed that the next opportunity to pass a resolution supporting Bailey's Class 6b assessment application at a City Council meeting will be on May 22, 1996, and respectfully requests that this matter be addressed on that date. Kindly contact me if you have any questions or require any additional information.
