A-21-094 Motion – Business Assistance Grant Program

Request the Board approve and authorize the creation of the Streamwood Development Assistance Program.

This Motion creates the Streamwood Development Assistance Program, which provides grant aid to local businesses investing in the community and authorizes the Community and Economic Development Commission to review and recommend grant aid to the Village Board.

Trustee Baumer presented the Motion and moved for approval. Trustee Schmidt seconded the motion. Community Development Director John Peterson reviewed the CEDC business survey results showing a diverse and resilient business community that is satisfied with the services offered by the Village. COVID 19 brought sales loss to many businesses and only half of the survey respondents took advantage of any state or federal assistance. However, businesses said they would consider a Village sponsored assistance program. Using a similar format to Bartlett, the Streamwood Development Assistance Program would offer a rebate program up to $25,000 for façade and/or landscaping improvements, ADA compliance, lighting and other investments in the business. Grants will be competitive and criteria for consideration of funding will be based on potential job creation, amount of business (versus grant) investment, extent that the investment improves aesthetics in the area and improvement to the community. Business or property owners may apply. The CEDC will review all applications and make recommendations on the use and expenditure of funding to the Village Board. The program is purely reimbursement; all permits and work must be completed with one year of approval and only pre-approved projects would be eligible for consideration. Initial funding of $100,000 is being recommended for 2022. If successful, future allocations are recommended to be dedicated through a percentage of tax receipts from a dedicated source such as video gaming or cannabis sales tax revenues.

Trustee Harper asked that the Board be informed in the Staff’s bi-weekly reports regarding the program. Trustee Haque asked when the applications would be accepted. Village Manager Caddigan stated the program is designed as a pilot program to be funded for 2022, so applications would likely be accepted in December for consideration in January and later.

LEGISLATIVE – Trustee Haque/Trustee Schmidt

A-21-096 Resolution – Estimated 2021 Property Tax Ley

Request the Board approve a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION ESTIMATING THE PROPERTY TAXES TO BE LEVIED FOR THE 2021 PROPERTY TAX LEVY.” This Resolution estimates the 2021 Property Tax Levy (payable in 2022) for the Village. The proposed levy is $12,797,960.00, which is the net levy amount from the 2020 Tax Levy.

Trustee Haque presented the Resolution and moved for approval. Trustee Harper seconded the motion. Finance Director Josh Peacock noted this is an estimate of the proposed levy, and does not bind the Village to this amount. The levy ordinances will be adopted on December 2nd and a public hearing is planned for November 18th. He briefly reviewed the proposed levy, and stated the Village’s overall EAV (Equalized Assessed Valuation) had dropped. Trustee Harper asked about that decline given the real estate market is currently booming. Mr. Peacock noted this was a 2020 number as Cook County taxes are billed the year later; he expects the EAV will show a rise for the 2021 amount next year. ROLL CALL:
