PROPOSED SECOND SUBSTITUTE ORDINANCE

 

BE IT ORDAINED, by the Cook County Board of Commissioners that Chapter 74 Taxation, Sec. 74-70 of the Cook County Code is hereby enacted as follows:

 

Sec. 74-70.     Class 8a Designation / Assessment Class

 

            Class 8a.         Real estate that is used primarily for commercial purposes, which real estate would qualify for a class 8 designation  pursuant to Sec. 74-62 thru Sec. 74-64, except for the fact that the qualifying use of the property prior to application for the incentive does not comply with the definition of abandoned property provided for in Sec.74-62(b), can receive a designation as a class 8a property so long as the applicant can show that it has complied with all of the requirements necessary to receive a class 8 designation per Sec. 74-62 thru Sec. 74-64, except for meeting the definition of abandonment provided for in Sec. 74-62(b), but  only when the Cook County Board of Commissioners provides a resolution or ordinance in support of such designation absent abandonment.

 

            (1)        The Cook County Board of Commissioners may only provide such a resolution or ordinance in support of class 8a designation absent abandonment when:

 

                        a.         applicant has obtained from the municipality in which the real estate is located or the Cook County Board of Commissioners, if the real estate is located in an unincorporated area, an agreement to abate a portion of the local government’s sales tax generated by the commercial enterprise located on such real estate and such abatement of sales tax must cover the period of time for which the applicant would qualify for this Class 8a incentive;

 

                        b.         applicant can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Cook County Board of Commissioners that due to national and regional economic conditions beyond its control the commercial enterprise has undergone a significant reduction in net operating income of at least 40% in the year it makes application for this incentive as compared to the average net operating income of the commercial enterprise in the prior three years;

 

                        c.         applicant provides objective and credible evidence including, but not limited to, an economic impact study that demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Cook County Board of Commissioners that the ongoing commercial enterprise is not economically viable and as such it will cease operations within sixty-days of the submission of an eligibility application for class 8a designation to the Cook County Assessor, and thereafter the property will become vacant and unused for an extended period of time of at least twenty-four months; and

 

                        d.         applicant provides objective and credible evidence including, but not limited to, an economic impact study that demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Cook County Board of Commissioners that designation as a class 8a property will allow the commercial enterprise to be economically viable and thereby continue its operations so that the commercial enterprise can continue to occupy and fully utilize the real estate for an extended period of time.

 

            (2)        Such a resolution or ordinance must contain:

 

                        a.         a finding that the Cook County Board of Commissioners has determined that commercial enterprise has undergone a significant reduction in net operating income of at least 40% in the year it makes application for the incentive as compared to the average net operating income of the commercial enterprise in the prior three years;

 

                        b.         a finding that the Cook County Board of Commissioners has determined that class 8a designation of the property is necessary for the ongoing commercial enterprise to continue its operations and that without such designation the commercial enterprise would not be economically viable causing the property to become vacant and unused;

 

                        c.         a statement by the Cook County Board of Commissioners that it supports and consents to the designation of the property as a class 8a property absent an abandonment requirement; and

 

                        d.         a statement by the Cook County Board of Commissioners that it supports and consents to the application made to the Cook County Assessor requesting designation as a class 8a property absent an abandonment requirement.

Sec. 74-70.     Class 8a Designation / Assessment Class

 

            Class 8a.         Real estate that is used primarily for industrial or commercial purposes, which real estate would qualify for a class 8 designation  pursuant to Sec. 74-62 thru Sec. 74-64, except for the fact that the qualifying use of the property prior to application for the incentive does not comply with the definition of abandoned property provided for in Sec.74-62(b), can receive a designation as a class 8a property so long as the applicant can show that it has complied with all of the requirements necessary to receive a class 8 designation per Sec. 74-62 thru Sec. 74-64, except for meeting the definition of abandonment provided for in Sec. 74-62(b), but  only when the Cook County Board of Commissioners provides a resolution or ordinance in support of such designation absent abandonment.

 

            (1)        The Cook County Board of Commissioners may only provide such a resolution or ordinance in support of class 8a designation absent abandonment when:

 

                        a.         an applicant who collects or transmits sales tax has obtained from the municipality in which the real estate is located or the Cook County Board of Commissioners, if the real estate is located in an unincorporated area, an agreement to abate a portion of the local government’s sales tax generated by the industrial or commercial enterprise located on such real estate and such abatement of sales tax must cover the period of time for which the applicant would qualify for this Class 8a incentive;

 

                        b.         applicant can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Cook County Board of Commissioners that due to national and regional economic conditions beyond its control the industrial or commercial enterprise has undergone a significant reduction in net operating income of at least 40% in the year it makes application for this incentive as compared to the average net operating income of the industrial or commercial enterprise in the prior three years;

 

                        c.         applicant provides objective and credible evidence including, but not limited to, an economic impact study that demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Cook County Board of Commissioners that the ongoing industrial or commercial enterprise is not economically viable and as such it will cease operations within sixty-days of the submission of an eligibility application for class 8a designation to the Cook County Assessor, and thereafter the property will become vacant and unused for an extended period of time of at least twenty-four months; and

 

                        d.         applicant provides objective and credible evidence including, but not limited to, an economic impact study that demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Cook County Board of Commissioners that designation as a class 8a property will allow the industrial or commercial enterprise to be economically viable and thereby continue its operations so that the industrial or commercial enterprise can continue to occupy and fully utilize the real estate for an extended period of time.

 

            (2)        Such a resolution or ordinance must contain:

 

                        a.         a finding that the Cook County Board of Commissioners has determined that industrial or commercial enterprise has undergone a significant reduction in net operating income of at least 40% in the year it makes application for the incentive as compared to the average net operating income of the industrial or commercial enterprise in the prior three years;
