Title
Substitute resolution approving a Project Plan and creating a Tax Incremental District (Chase Commerce Center Project) in the 14th Aldermanic District.
Analysis
This substitute resolution approves a tax incremental district Project Plan to redevelop the former Metso Minerals/Rexnord complex at 3073 South Chase Avenue for manufacturing and office use. The property was acquired by Industrial Properties, LLC (“Developer”). The first tenant is Bucyrus International, Inc., which expects to employ 80-90 workers at the site. The total redevelopment cost for the 513,000 square foot complex is estimated at $7.5 million, including the acquisition cost. The Project Plan proposes to contribute not more than $500,000 to this cost, with all costs being advanced by the Developer and repaid, without interest, by the City, but only from incremental tax revenue generated by the District. The Project Plan does not require any general obligation borrowing by the City. The District will terminate and all payments will cease when occupancy in the complex reaches 80 percent, or in ten years, whichever occurs earlier.
