1 | AN ACT concerning local government.
| |||||||||||||||||||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| |||||||||||||||||||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| |||||||||||||||||||||||
4 | Section 5. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by | |||||||||||||||||||||||
5 | changing Sections 8-8-3.5, 11-74.4-5, and 11-74.6-22 as | |||||||||||||||||||||||
6 | follows:
| |||||||||||||||||||||||
7 | (65 ILCS 5/8-8-3.5)
| |||||||||||||||||||||||
8 | Sec. 8-8-3.5. Tax Increment Financing Report. The reports | |||||||||||||||||||||||
9 | filed under
subsection (d) of Section 11-74.4-5 of the Tax | |||||||||||||||||||||||
10 | Increment Allocation
Redevelopment Act and the reports filed | |||||||||||||||||||||||
11 | under subsection (d) of Section
11-74.6-22 of the Industrial | |||||||||||||||||||||||
12 | Jobs Recovery Law
in the Illinois Municipal Code must be | |||||||||||||||||||||||
13 | separate from any
other annual report filed with the | |||||||||||||||||||||||
14 | Comptroller. The Comptroller must, in
cooperation with | |||||||||||||||||||||||
15 | reporting municipalities, create
a format for the reporting of | |||||||||||||||||||||||
16 | information described in paragraphs (1.5)
and (5) and
in | |||||||||||||||||||||||
17 | subparagraph (G) of paragraphs paragraph (7) and (8) of | |||||||||||||||||||||||
18 | subsection (d) of Section
11-74.4-5 of
the Tax Increment | |||||||||||||||||||||||
19 | Allocation Redevelopment Act
and the information described in | |||||||||||||||||||||||
20 | paragraphs (1.5) and (5) and in subparagraph
(G) of paragraphs | |||||||||||||||||||||||
21 | paragraph (7) and (8) of subsection (d) of Section 11-74.6-22 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
22 | of the Industrial
Jobs Recovery Law
that facilitates | |||||||||||||||||||||||
23 | consistent
reporting among the reporting municipalities. In |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | addition to information required to be reported under this | ||||||
2 | Section, reporting municipalities shall also report to the | ||||||
3 | Comptroller annually in a manner and format prescribed by the | ||||||
4 | Comptroller: (1) the number of jobs, aspirational or | ||||||
5 | otherwise, if any, projected to be created for each | ||||||
6 | redevelopment project area at the time of approval of the | ||||||
7 | redevelopment agreement; (2) the number of jobs, if any, | ||||||
8 | created as a result of the development under the same | ||||||
9 | guidelines and assumptions as was used for the projections | ||||||
10 | used at the time of approval of the redevelopment agreement to | ||||||
11 | date for that reporting period; (3) the amount of increment | ||||||
12 | projected to be created at the time of approval of the | ||||||
13 | redevelopment agreement for each redevelopment project area; | ||||||
14 | (4) the amount of increment created as a result of the | ||||||
15 | development to date for that reporting period using the same | ||||||
16 | assumptions as was used for the projections used at the time of | ||||||
17 | approval of the redevelopment agreement; and (5) the stated | ||||||
18 | rate of return identified by the developer to the municipality | ||||||
19 | for each redevelopment project area, if any. Stated rates of | ||||||
20 | returns required to be reported in item (5) shall be | ||||||
21 | independently verified by a third party chosen by the | ||||||
22 | municipality. The Comptroller may allow these
reports to be | ||||||
23 | filed electronically and may display the report, or portions | ||||||
24 | of
the report, electronically via the Internet. All reports | ||||||
25 | filed under this
Section must be made available for | ||||||
26 | examination and copying by the public at all
reasonable times. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | A Tax Increment Financing Report must be filed electronically | ||||||
2 | with the Comptroller within 180 days after the close of the | ||||||
3 | municipal fiscal year or as soon thereafter as the audit for | ||||||
4 | the redevelopment
project area for that fiscal year becomes | ||||||
5 | available. If the Tax Increment Finance administrator provides | ||||||
6 | the Comptroller's office with sufficient evidence that the | ||||||
7 | report is in the process of being completed by an auditor, the | ||||||
8 | Comptroller may grant an extension. If the required report is | ||||||
9 | not filed within
the
time extended by the Comptroller, the | ||||||
10 | Comptroller shall notify the corporate authorities of that | ||||||
11 | municipality that the audit report is past due. The | ||||||
12 | Comptroller may charge a municipality a fee of $5 per day for | ||||||
13 | the first 15 days past due, $10 per day for 16 through 30 days | ||||||
14 | past due, $15 per day for 31 through 45 days past due, and $20 | ||||||
15 | per day for the 46th day and every day thereafter. These | ||||||
16 | amounts may be reduced at the Comptroller's discretion. In the | ||||||
17 | event the required audit report is not filed within 60 days of | ||||||
18 | such notice, the Comptroller shall cause such audit to be made | ||||||
19 | by an auditor or auditors. The Comptroller may decline to | ||||||
20 | order an audit and the preparation of an audit report if an | ||||||
21 | initial examination of the books and records of the | ||||||
22 | municipality indicates that books and records of the | ||||||
23 | municipality are inadequate or unavailable to support the | ||||||
24 | preparation of the audit report or the supplemental report due | ||||||
25 | to the passage of time or the occurrence of a natural disaster. | ||||||
26 | All fees collected pursuant to this Section shall be deposited |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | into the Comptroller's Administrative Fund. In the event the | ||||||
2 | Comptroller causes an audit to be made in accordance with the | ||||||
3 | requirements of this Section, the municipality shall pay to | ||||||
4 | the Comptroller reasonable compensation and expenses to | ||||||
5 | reimburse her for the cost of preparing or completing such | ||||||
6 | report. Moneys paid to the Comptroller pursuant to the | ||||||
7 | preceding sentence shall be deposited into the Comptroller's | ||||||
8 | Audit Expense Revolving Fund.

| ||||||
11 | Sec. 11-74.4-5. Public hearing; joint review board. | ||||||
12 | (a) The changes made by this amendatory Act of the 91st
| ||||||
13 | General Assembly do not apply to a municipality that, (i) | ||||||
14 | before the
effective date of this amendatory Act of the 91st | ||||||
15 | General Assembly,
has adopted an ordinance or resolution | ||||||
16 | fixing a time and place for a
public hearing under this Section | ||||||
17 | or (ii) before July 1, 1999, has adopted
an ordinance or | ||||||
18 | resolution providing for a feasibility study under Section
| ||||||
19 | 11-74.4-4.1, but has not yet adopted an ordinance
approving | ||||||
20 | redevelopment plans and redevelopment projects or designating
| ||||||
21 | redevelopment project areas under Section 11-74.4-4, until | ||||||
22 | after that
municipality adopts an ordinance
approving | ||||||
23 | redevelopment plans and redevelopment projects or designating
| ||||||
24 | redevelopment project areas under Section 11-74.4-4; | ||||||
25 | thereafter the changes
made by this amendatory Act of the 91st |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | General Assembly apply to the same
extent that they apply to
| ||||||
2 | redevelopment plans and redevelopment projects that were | ||||||
3 | approved and
redevelopment projects that were designated | ||||||
4 | before the effective date of this
amendatory Act of the 91st | ||||||
5 | General Assembly.
| ||||||
6 | Prior to the adoption of an ordinance proposing the
| ||||||
7 | designation of a redevelopment project area, or approving a
| ||||||
8 | redevelopment plan or redevelopment project, the municipality | ||||||
9 | by its
corporate authorities, or as it may determine by any | ||||||
10 | commission
designated under subsection (k) of Section | ||||||
11 | 11-74.4-4 shall adopt an
ordinance or resolution fixing
a time | ||||||
12 | and place for public hearing.
At least 10 days prior to the | ||||||
13 | adoption of the ordinance or resolution
establishing the time
| ||||||
14 | and place for the public hearing, the municipality shall make | ||||||
15 | available for
public inspection a redevelopment plan or a | ||||||
16 | separate report that provides in
reasonable detail the basis | ||||||
17 | for the eligibility of
the redevelopment project area. The | ||||||
18 | report along with the name of a
person to
contact for further | ||||||
19 | information shall be sent within a reasonable time
after the | ||||||
20 | adoption of such ordinance or resolution to the
affected | ||||||
21 | taxing districts
by certified mail.
On and after the effective | ||||||
22 | date of this amendatory Act of the 91st General
Assembly, the | ||||||
23 | municipality shall print in a newspaper of general circulation
| ||||||
24 | within the municipality a notice that interested persons may | ||||||
25 | register with the
municipality in order to receive information | ||||||
26 | on the proposed designation of a
redevelopment project area or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the approval of a redevelopment plan. The notice
shall state | ||||||
2 | the place of registration and the operating hours of that | ||||||
3 | place.
The municipality shall have adopted reasonable rules to | ||||||
4 | implement this
registration process under Section 11-74.4-4.2.
| ||||||
5 | The municipality shall provide notice of the availability of | ||||||
6 | the
redevelopment plan and eligibility report, including how | ||||||
7 | to obtain this
information, by mail within a reasonable time | ||||||
8 | after the adoption of the
ordinance or resolution, to all | ||||||
9 | residential addresses that, after a good faith
effort, the | ||||||
10 | municipality determines are located outside the proposed
| ||||||
11 | redevelopment project area and within 750 feet of the
| ||||||
12 | boundaries of the proposed redevelopment project area. This | ||||||
13 | requirement is
subject to the limitation that in a | ||||||
14 | municipality with a population of over
100,000, if the total | ||||||
15 | number of residential addresses outside the proposed
| ||||||
16 | redevelopment project area and within 750 feet of the
| ||||||
17 | boundaries of the proposed redevelopment project area exceeds | ||||||
18 | 750, the
municipality shall be required to provide the notice | ||||||
19 | to only the 750
residential addresses that, after a good faith | ||||||
20 | effort, the municipality
determines are outside the proposed | ||||||
21 | redevelopment project area and closest
to the boundaries of | ||||||
22 | the proposed redevelopment project
area.
Notwithstanding the | ||||||
23 | foregoing, notice given after August 7, 2001 (the
effective | ||||||
24 | date of Public Act 92-263) and before the effective date of | ||||||
25 | this
amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly to | ||||||
26 | residential addresses within 750
feet of the boundaries of a |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | proposed redevelopment project area shall be deemed
to have | ||||||
2 | been sufficiently given in compliance with this Act if given | ||||||
3 | only to
residents outside the boundaries of the proposed | ||||||
4 | redevelopment project area.
The notice shall also be provided | ||||||
5 | by the municipality, regardless of its
population, to those | ||||||
6 | organizations and residents that have registered with the
| ||||||
7 | municipality for that information in accordance with the | ||||||
8 | registration
guidelines established by the municipality under | ||||||
9 | Section 11-74.4-4.2.
| ||||||
10 | At the public hearing any
interested person or affected | ||||||
11 | taxing district may file with the
municipal clerk written | ||||||
12 | objections to and may be heard orally in respect
to any issues | ||||||
13 | embodied in the notice. The municipality shall hear all | ||||||
14 | protests
and objections at the hearing and the hearing may
be | ||||||
15 | adjourned to another date without further notice other than a | ||||||
16 | motion
to be entered upon the minutes fixing the time and place | ||||||
17 | of the
subsequent hearing.
At the public hearing or at any time | ||||||
18 | prior to the
adoption by the municipality of an ordinance | ||||||
19 | approving a redevelopment plan,
the municipality may make | ||||||
20 | changes in the redevelopment plan. Changes which (1)
add | ||||||
21 | additional parcels of property to the proposed redevelopment | ||||||
22 | project area,
(2) substantially affect the general land uses | ||||||
23 | proposed in the redevelopment
plan, (3) substantially change | ||||||
24 | the nature of or extend the life of the
redevelopment project,
| ||||||
25 | or (4) increase the number of inhabited residential units to | ||||||
26 | be displaced from the redevelopment project area, as
measured |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | from the time of creation of the redevelopment project area, | ||||||
2 | to a total of more than
10,
shall be made only after the
| ||||||
3 | municipality gives notice,
convenes a joint review board, and | ||||||
4 | conducts a public hearing pursuant to the
procedures set forth | ||||||
5 | in this Section and in Section 11-74.4-6 of this Act.
Changes | ||||||
6 | which do not (1) add additional parcels of property to the | ||||||
7 | proposed
redevelopment project area, (2) substantially affect | ||||||
8 | the general land uses
proposed in the redevelopment plan, (3) | ||||||
9 | substantially change the nature of
or extend the life of the | ||||||
10 | redevelopment project,
or (4) increase the number of inhabited | ||||||
11 | residential units to be displaced from the redevelopment | ||||||
12 | project area, as
measured from the time of creation of the | ||||||
13 | redevelopment project area, to a total
of more than 10,
may be | ||||||
14 | made without further
hearing, provided that the municipality | ||||||
15 | shall give notice of any such changes
by mail to each affected | ||||||
16 | taxing district and registrant on the interested
parties | ||||||
17 | registry, provided for under Section 11-74.4-4.2, and by | ||||||
18 | publication in
a newspaper of
general circulation within the | ||||||
19 | affected taxing district. Such notice by mail
and by | ||||||
20 | publication shall each occur not later than 10 days following | ||||||
21 | the
adoption by ordinance of such changes. Hearings with | ||||||
22 | regard to a redevelopment
project area, project or plan may be | ||||||
23 | held simultaneously.
| ||||||
24 | (b) Prior to holding a public hearing to approve or amend a | ||||||
25 | redevelopment
plan or to designate or add additional parcels | ||||||
26 | of property to a redevelopment
project area, the municipality
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | shall convene a joint review board. The board shall consist of | ||||||
2 | a representative
selected by each community college district, | ||||||
3 | local elementary school
district and high school district or | ||||||
4 | each local community unit school
district, park district, | ||||||
5 | library district, township, fire protection
district, and | ||||||
6 | county that will have the authority to
directly levy taxes on | ||||||
7 | the property within the proposed redevelopment
project area at | ||||||
8 | the time that the proposed redevelopment project area is
| ||||||
9 | approved, a representative selected by the municipality and a | ||||||
10 | public
member. The public member shall first be selected and | ||||||
11 | then the board's
chairperson shall be selected by
a majority | ||||||
12 | of the board members present and voting.
| ||||||
13 | For redevelopment project areas with redevelopment plans | ||||||
14 | or proposed
redevelopment plans that would
result in the | ||||||
15 | displacement of residents from 10 or more inhabited | ||||||
16 | residential
units or that include 75 or more inhabited | ||||||
17 | residential units, the public member
shall be a person who | ||||||
18 | resides in the redevelopment project area. If, as
determined | ||||||
19 | by the housing impact study provided for in paragraph (5) of
| ||||||
20 | subsection (n) of Section 11-74.4-3, or if no housing impact | ||||||
21 | study is required
then based on other reasonable data, the | ||||||
22 | majority of residential units are
occupied by very low, low, | ||||||
23 | or moderate income households, as defined in Section
3 of the | ||||||
24 | Illinois Affordable Housing Act, the public member shall be a | ||||||
25 | person
who resides in very low, low, or moderate income | ||||||
26 | housing within the
redevelopment project area. Municipalities |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | with fewer than 15,000 residents
shall not be required to | ||||||
2 | select a person who lives in very low, low, or
moderate income | ||||||
3 | housing within the redevelopment project area, provided that
| ||||||
4 | the redevelopment plan or project will not result in | ||||||
5 | displacement of residents
from 10 or more inhabited units, and | ||||||
6 | the municipality so certifies
in the plan. If no person | ||||||
7 | satisfying these requirements is available or if no
qualified | ||||||
8 | person will serve as the public member, then the joint review | ||||||
9 | board
is relieved of this paragraph's selection requirements | ||||||
10 | for the public
member.
| ||||||
11 | Within 90 days of the effective date of this amendatory | ||||||
12 | Act of the 91st
General Assembly, each municipality that | ||||||
13 | designated a redevelopment project
area for which it was not | ||||||
14 | required to convene a joint review board under this
Section | ||||||
15 | shall convene a joint review board to perform the
duties | ||||||
16 | specified under paragraph (e) of this Section.
| ||||||
17 | All board members shall be appointed and the first board | ||||||
18 | meeting shall be
held at least 14 days but not more than 28 | ||||||
19 | days after the
mailing of notice by the
municipality to the | ||||||
20 | taxing
districts as required by Section 11-74.4-6(c).
| ||||||
21 | Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a municipality that | ||||||
22 | adopted either a
public hearing resolution or a feasibility | ||||||
23 | resolution between July 1, 1999 and
July 1, 2000 that called | ||||||
24 | for the meeting of the joint review board within 14
days of | ||||||
25 | notice of public hearing to affected taxing districts is | ||||||
26 | deemed to be
in compliance with the notice, meeting, and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | public hearing provisions of the
Act.
Such notice
shall also | ||||||
2 | advise
the taxing bodies represented on the joint review board | ||||||
3 | of the time and place
of the first meeting of the board. | ||||||
4 | Additional meetings of the
board shall be held upon the call of | ||||||
5 | any member. The municipality
seeking designation of the | ||||||
6 | redevelopment project area shall provide
administrative | ||||||
7 | support to the board.
| ||||||
8 | The board shall review (i) the public record, planning | ||||||
9 | documents and
proposed ordinances approving the redevelopment | ||||||
10 | plan and
project and (ii) proposed amendments to the | ||||||
11 | redevelopment plan or additions
of parcels of property to the | ||||||
12 | redevelopment project area to be
adopted by the municipality. | ||||||
13 | As part of its deliberations, the board may
hold additional | ||||||
14 | hearings on the proposal. A
board's recommendation shall be
an | ||||||
15 | advisory, non-binding recommendation. The recommendation shall | ||||||
16 | be adopted
by a majority of those members present and voting. | ||||||
17 | The recommendations shall
be submitted to the municipality
| ||||||
18 | within 30 days after convening of the board.
Failure of the | ||||||
19 | board to
submit
its report on a timely basis shall not be cause | ||||||
20 | to delay the public hearing
or any other step in the process of | ||||||
21 | designating or
amending the
redevelopment project area but | ||||||
22 | shall be deemed to constitute approval by the
joint review | ||||||
23 | board of the matters before it.
| ||||||
24 | The board shall base its recommendation to approve or | ||||||
25 | disapprove the
redevelopment plan and the designation of the | ||||||
26 | redevelopment project area or the
amendment of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | redevelopment plan or addition of parcels of property to the
| ||||||
2 | redevelopment project area on the basis of the redevelopment | ||||||
3 | project area and
redevelopment plan satisfying the
plan | ||||||
4 | requirements, the eligibility criteria
defined in Section | ||||||
5 | 11-74.4-3, and the objectives of this Act.
| ||||||
6 | The board shall issue a written report describing why the
| ||||||
7 | redevelopment plan and project area or the amendment thereof | ||||||
8 | meets or
fails to meet one or more of the objectives of this | ||||||
9 | Act and both the plan
requirements and the eligibility | ||||||
10 | criteria defined in Section 11-74.4-3.
In the event the Board | ||||||
11 | does not file a report it shall be presumed
that these taxing | ||||||
12 | bodies find the redevelopment project area and
redevelopment | ||||||
13 | plan satisfy the
objectives of this Act and the plan | ||||||
14 | requirements and eligibility criteria.
| ||||||
15 | If the board recommends rejection of the matters before | ||||||
16 | it, the
municipality will have 30 days within which to | ||||||
17 | resubmit the plan or amendment.
During this period, the | ||||||
18 | municipality will meet and confer with the board and
attempt | ||||||
19 | to resolve those issues set forth in the board's written | ||||||
20 | report that
led to the rejection of the plan or amendment.
| ||||||
21 | Notwithstanding the resubmission set forth above, the | ||||||
22 | municipality may
commence the scheduled public hearing and | ||||||
23 | either adjourn the public hearing or
continue the public | ||||||
24 | hearing until a date certain. Prior to continuing any
public | ||||||
25 | hearing to a date certain, the municipality shall announce | ||||||
26 | during the
public hearing the time, date, and location for the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | reconvening of the public
hearing. Any changes to the | ||||||
2 | redevelopment plan necessary to satisfy the issues
set forth | ||||||
3 | in the joint review board report shall be the subject of a | ||||||
4 | public
hearing before the hearing is adjourned if the changes | ||||||
5 | would (1) substantially
affect the general land uses proposed | ||||||
6 | in the redevelopment plan, (2)
substantially change the nature | ||||||
7 | of or extend the life of the redevelopment
project, or (3) | ||||||
8 | increase the number of inhabited residential units to be
| ||||||
9 | displaced from the redevelopment project area, as
measured | ||||||
10 | from the
time of creation of the redevelopment project area, | ||||||
11 | to a total of
more than 10. Changes to the redevelopment plan | ||||||
12 | necessary
to
satisfy the issues set forth in the joint review | ||||||
13 | board report shall not require
any further notice or convening | ||||||
14 | of a joint review board meeting, except that
any changes to the | ||||||
15 | redevelopment plan that would add additional parcels of
| ||||||
16 | property to the proposed redevelopment project area shall be | ||||||
17 | subject to the
notice, public hearing, and joint review board | ||||||
18 | meeting requirements established
for such changes by | ||||||
19 | subsection (a) of Section 11-74.4-5.
| ||||||
20 | In the event that the
municipality and the board are | ||||||
21 | unable to resolve these differences, or in the
event that the | ||||||
22 | resubmitted plan or amendment is rejected by the board, the
| ||||||
23 | municipality may proceed with the plan or amendment, but only | ||||||
24 | upon a
three-fifths vote of the corporate authority | ||||||
25 | responsible for approval of the
plan or amendment, excluding | ||||||
26 | positions of members that are vacant and those
members that |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | are ineligible to vote because of conflicts of interest.
| ||||||
2 | (c) After a municipality has by ordinance approved a | ||||||
3 | redevelopment plan
and designated a redevelopment project | ||||||
4 | area, the plan may be amended and
additional properties may be | ||||||
5 | added to the redevelopment project area only as
herein | ||||||
6 | provided. Amendments which (1) add additional parcels of | ||||||
7 | property to
the proposed redevelopment project area, (2) | ||||||
8 | substantially affect the general
land uses proposed in the | ||||||
9 | redevelopment plan, (3) substantially change the
nature of the | ||||||
10 | redevelopment project, (4) increase the total estimated
| ||||||
11 | redevelopment
project costs set out in the redevelopment plan | ||||||
12 | by more than 5% after
adjustment for inflation from the date | ||||||
13 | the plan was adopted, (5) add
additional redevelopment project | ||||||
14 | costs to the itemized list of redevelopment
project costs set | ||||||
15 | out in the redevelopment plan, or (6) increase the number of
| ||||||
16 | inhabited residential units to be
displaced from the | ||||||
17 | redevelopment
project area, as measured from the time of | ||||||
18 | creation of
the
redevelopment project area, to a total of more | ||||||
19 | than
10, shall be made only after
the
municipality gives | ||||||
20 | notice, convenes a joint review board, and conducts a public
| ||||||
21 | hearing pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section | ||||||
22 | and in Section
11-74.4-6 of this Act. Changes which do not (1) | ||||||
23 | add additional parcels of
property to the proposed | ||||||
24 | redevelopment project area, (2) substantially affect
the | ||||||
25 | general land uses proposed in the redevelopment plan, (3) | ||||||
26 | substantially
change the nature of the redevelopment project, |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (4) increase the total
estimated redevelopment project cost | ||||||
2 | set out in the redevelopment plan by more
than 5% after | ||||||
3 | adjustment for inflation from the date the plan was adopted,
| ||||||
4 | (5) add additional redevelopment project costs to the itemized | ||||||
5 | list of
redevelopment project costs set out in the | ||||||
6 | redevelopment plan, or (6) increase
the number of inhabited | ||||||
7 | residential units to be displaced from the
redevelopment | ||||||

| ||||||
10 | Sec. 11-74.6-22. Adoption of ordinance; requirements; | ||||||
11 | changes.
| ||||||
12 | (a) Before adoption of an ordinance proposing the
| ||||||
13 | designation of a redevelopment planning area or a | ||||||
14 | redevelopment project area,
or both, or approving a
| ||||||
15 | redevelopment plan or redevelopment project, the municipality | ||||||
16 | or commission
designated pursuant to subsection (l) of Section | ||||||
17 | 11-74.6-15 shall fix by
ordinance or resolution
a time and | ||||||
18 | place for public hearing.
Prior to the adoption of the | ||||||
19 | ordinance or resolution establishing the time and
place for | ||||||
20 | the public hearing, the municipality shall make available for | ||||||
21 | public
inspection a redevelopment plan or a report that | ||||||
22 | provides in sufficient detail,
the basis for the eligibility | ||||||
23 | of the
redevelopment project area. The report

24 | name of a
person to contact for further information shall be | ||||||
25 | sent to the affected taxing
district by certified mail within |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | a reasonable time following the adoption of
the ordinance or | ||||||
2 | resolution establishing the time and place for the public
| ||||||
3 | hearing.
| ||||||
4 | At the public hearing any
interested person or affected | ||||||
5 | taxing district may file with the
municipal clerk written | ||||||
6 | objections to the ordinance and may be heard orally
on any | ||||||
7 | issues that are the subject of the hearing. The municipality | ||||||
8 | shall
hear and determine all alternate proposals or bids for | ||||||
9 | any proposed conveyance,
lease, mortgage or other disposition | ||||||
10 | of land and all protests and objections at
the hearing and the
| ||||||
11 | hearing may be adjourned to another date without further | ||||||
12 | notice other than
a motion to be entered upon the minutes | ||||||
13 | fixing the time and place of the
later hearing.
At the public | ||||||
14 | hearing or at any time prior to the adoption by the
| ||||||
15 | municipality of an ordinance approving a redevelopment plan, | ||||||
16 | the
municipality may make changes in the redevelopment plan. | ||||||
17 | Changes
which (1) add additional parcels of property to the | ||||||
18 | proposed redevelopment
project
area, (2) substantially affect | ||||||
19 | the general land uses proposed in the
redevelopment plan, or | ||||||
20 | (3) substantially change the nature of or extend the
life of | ||||||
21 | the redevelopment
project shall be made only after the
| ||||||
22 | municipality gives notice, convenes a joint review board, and | ||||||
23 | conducts a public
hearing pursuant to the procedures set forth | ||||||
24 | in this Section and in Section
11-74.6-25. Changes which do | ||||||
25 | not (1) add additional parcels of
property to the proposed | ||||||
26 | redevelopment project area, (2) substantially affect
the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | general land uses proposed in the redevelopment plan, or (3) | ||||||
2 | substantially
change the nature of or extend the life of the | ||||||
3 | redevelopment project may be
made without further hearing, | ||||||
4 | provided that the municipality shall give notice
of any such | ||||||
5 | changes by mail to each affected taxing district and by | ||||||
6 | publication
once in a newspaper of general circulation within | ||||||
7 | the affected taxing district.
Such notice by mail and by | ||||||
8 | publication shall each occur not later than 10 days
following | ||||||
9 | the adoption by ordinance of such changes.
| ||||||
10 | (b) Before adoption of an ordinance proposing the | ||||||
11 | designation of a
redevelopment planning area or a | ||||||
12 | redevelopment project area, or both, or
amending the | ||||||
13 | boundaries of an existing
redevelopment project area or | ||||||
14 | redevelopment planning area, or both, the
municipality shall | ||||||
15 | convene a joint review
board to consider the proposal. The | ||||||
16 | board shall consist of a
representative selected by each | ||||||
17 | taxing district that has
authority to levy real property taxes | ||||||
18 | on the property within the proposed
redevelopment project area | ||||||
19 | and that has at least 5% of its total equalized
assessed value | ||||||
20 | located within the proposed redevelopment project area, a
| ||||||
21 | representative selected by the municipality
and a public | ||||||
22 | member. The public member and the board's chairperson shall
be | ||||||
23 | selected by a majority of other board members.
| ||||||
24 | All board members shall be appointed and the first board | ||||||
25 | meeting held
within 14 days following the notice by the | ||||||
26 | municipality to all the taxing
districts as required by |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | subsection (c) of Section 11-74.6-25. The notice
shall also | ||||||
2 | advise the taxing bodies represented on the joint review board
| ||||||
3 | of the time and place of the first meeting of the board. | ||||||
4 | Additional
meetings of the board shall be held upon the call of | ||||||
5 | any 2 members. The
municipality seeking designation of the | ||||||
6 | redevelopment project area may provide
administrative support | ||||||
7 | to the board.
| ||||||
8 | The board shall review the public record, planning | ||||||
9 | documents and
proposed ordinances approving the redevelopment | ||||||
10 | plan and project to be
adopted by the municipality. As part of | ||||||
11 | its deliberations, the board may
hold additional hearings on | ||||||
12 | the proposal. A board's recommendation, if any,
shall be a | ||||||
13 | written recommendation adopted by a
majority vote of the board | ||||||
14 | and submitted to the municipality within 30 days
after the | ||||||
15 | board convenes. A board's recommendation shall be binding upon | ||||||
16 | the
municipality. Failure of the board to submit
its | ||||||
17 | recommendation on a timely basis shall not be cause to delay | ||||||
18 | the public
hearing or the process of establishing or amending | ||||||
19 | the
redevelopment project area. The board's recommendation on | ||||||
20 | the proposal
shall be based upon the area satisfying the | ||||||
21 | applicable eligibility criteria
defined in Section 11-74.6-10 | ||||||
22 | and whether there is a basis for the
municipal findings set | ||||||
23 | forth in the redevelopment plan as required by this
Act. If the | ||||||
24 | board does not file a recommendation it shall be presumed that
| ||||||
25 | the board has found that the redevelopment project area | ||||||
26 | satisfies the
eligibility criteria.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (c) After a municipality has by ordinance approved a | ||||||
2 | redevelopment plan
and designated a redevelopment planning | ||||||
3 | area or a redevelopment project area,
or both, the plan may be
| ||||||
4 | amended and additional properties may be added to the | ||||||
5 | redevelopment project
area only as herein provided. Amendments
| ||||||
6 | which (1) add additional parcels of property to the proposed | ||||||
7 | redevelopment
project
area, (2) substantially affect the | ||||||
8 | general land uses proposed in the
redevelopment plan, (3) | ||||||
9 | substantially change the nature of the redevelopment
project,
| ||||||
10 | (4) increase the total estimated
redevelopment project costs | ||||||
11 | set out in the redevelopment plan by more than 5%
after | ||||||
12 | adjustment for inflation from the date the plan was adopted, | ||||||
13 | or
(5) add additional redevelopment project costs to the | ||||||
14 | itemized list of
redevelopment project costs set out in the | ||||||
15 | redevelopment plan
shall be made only after the municipality | ||||||
16 | gives notice,
convenes a joint review board, and conducts a | ||||||
17 | public hearing pursuant to the
procedures set forth in this | ||||||
18 | Section and in Section 11-74.6-25.
Changes which do not (1) | ||||||
19 | add additional parcels of property to the proposed
| ||||||
20 | redevelopment project area, (2) substantially affect the | ||||||
21 | general land uses
proposed in the redevelopment plan, (3) | ||||||
22 | substantially change the nature
of the redevelopment project, | ||||||
23 | (4) increase the total estimated redevelopment
project cost | ||||||
24 | set out in the redevelopment plan by more than 5% after | ||||||
25 | adjustment
for inflation from the date the plan was adopted, | ||||||
26 | or (5) add additional
redevelopment project costs to the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | itemized list of redevelopment project costs
set out in the | ||||||
2 | redevelopment plan
may be made without further hearing, | ||||||
3 | provided that the municipality
shall give notice of any such | ||||||
4 | changes by mail to each affected taxing district
and by | ||||||
5 | publication once in a newspaper of general circulation within | ||||||
6 | the affected
taxing district. Such notice by mail and by | ||||||
7 | publication shall each occur not
later than 10 days following | ||||||
8 | the adoption by ordinance of such changes. | ||||||
9 | Notwithstanding Section 11-74.6-50, the redevelopment | ||||||
10 | project area established by an ordinance adopted in its final | ||||||
11 | form on December 19, 2011 by the City of Loves Park may be | ||||||

13 | without further hearing or notice to include land that (i) is | ||||||
14 | at least in part contiguous to the existing redevelopment | ||||||
15 | project area, (ii) does not exceed approximately 16.56 acres, | ||||||
16 | (iii) at the time of the establishment of the redevelopment | ||||||
17 | project area would have been otherwise eligible for inclusion | ||||||
18 | in the redevelopment project area, and (iv) is zoned so as to | ||||||
19 | comply with this Act prior to its inclusion in the | ||||||
20 | redevelopment project area.
| ||||||
21 | (d) After the effective date of this amendatory Act of the | ||||||
22 | 91st General
Assembly, a
municipality shall
submit the | ||||||
23 | following information for each redevelopment project area (i) | ||||||
