BACKGROUND In 1999 the Near West Officer moved to a residence owned by St . Edward Central Catholic High School . Sine that time, St. Edward' s has moved forward with plans for expansion which entails the Resident Officer residence being razed for their expansion. The Police Department, working with Neighorhood Housing Services, began looking for a suitable residence fOr the officer in the Near West boundaries that would work within NHS guidelines of rehabilitating properties . A residence was located at 58 South Jackson and the property was acquired lol NHS in September. This property is currently a two-unit and is in the process of reconverting to single family. The prop rty was formerly owned by Jim and Leanne Freedman, 74 South Jacks;n, Elgin. The estimated b rehabilitation costs are $38, 500, with anticipation of receiving $20, 000 in return from the City for the ' reconversion to a single family unit. It is a two story with adeciLate room for office space and residence, located centrally to the near West Resident Officer boundaries . The Police Department is satisfied the property will suit the mission of the Resident Officer Program in the serving neighborhood. The Police Department determined through an Elgin realtor, who confirmed that the rent ardount was fair and within market value for this property, in lEhis neighborhood. The negotiated lease is for a one-year period of time with allowances beyond the initial period for continued rent on a month-to-month basis . Upon termination of the residence use for a ROPE officer, the property will remain the property of NHS .
