Roosevelt Road/Taft Avenue Ad Hoc Work Group April 6, 2022 Minutes Page 2 A Work Group member asked why there was an option to post comments anonymously on the Social Pinpoint application. President Senak stated he won’t give as much weight to anonymous comments. Trustee Payne stated he believes people should be required to state their name. The Work Group discussed whether they support an option for anonymous comments and whether addresses should also be required. Village Attorney Mathews reminded the group that the Village cannot require those making public comment to provide their address. The consensus of the Work Group was that they did not support anonymous comments. The Work Group asked about the timeline for the affordable housing consultant study that was recently approved by the Village Board. Village Manager Franz responded the study is anticipated to be completed in approximately six months. The findings will inform future policy decisions by the Village Board. Public Comment Joyce Hothan spoke in support of affordable housing as the best option for the site. She stated that the 10% requirement of the Illinois Fair Housing Act is a floor not a ceiling. She asserted that there is currently a lack of diversity of housing, a lack of affordable housing and an overall lack of supply of housing options. Julie Evans spoke in support of the need for housing for developmentally disabled adults. She stated they need affordable housing because many of them don’t earn a living wage, don’t drive and need lifelong daily living support. She reiterated the need for affordable, accessible, and supportive housing. Keith Lavin stated there are too many existing safety issues at the corner of Park and Taft and housing will further contribute to this problem. He noted that classroom sizes in School District #89 are already too large. Mr. Lavin stressed the need for the Village to establish a quota for affordable housing in all new developments. He also noted that the Comprehensive Plan designates the property for commercial uses. Tom Turek spoke in support of 55+ (senior housing) development that is affordable to this age demographic. David Firchau stated he wasn’t interested in affordable housing on this site. He asked what the hurry was to move forward with redevelopment. He suggested a swimming pool or some other amenity should be developed to serve residents south of Roosevelt Road. Sarah Allen spoke in support of affordable housing. She stated it is essential to the well-being of individuals and communities. She noted the property has value beyond commercial uses. Ms. Allen suggested mixed use as an option and stressed the importance of providing good quality affordable housing for existing residents. Roosevelt Road/Taft Avenue Ad Hoc Work Group April 6, 2022 Minutes Page 3 Jason Loebach stated that he is currently involved in work to support inclusion services for marginalized people. He shared that he has a 6-year-old with Down Syndrome and wants his son to have the ability to grow and stay in Glen Ellyn. Lynn Bruno stated that she believes it’s important everyone view Glen Ellyn as one community, She asserted the north versus south rhetoric only serves to divide the community. Ms. Bruno noted that when a community takes care of each other’s children through the school system, we all benefit. She stated that Village needs housing for its workforce. She requested the Village not give TIF dollars for any type of development on the site. Kelly North stated she was concerned about affordable housing. She asked why the Village paid $2.85 million for the property if it was appraised at $2.1 million? She inquired about the current and project tax revenue? She stressed the need to develop the site to support tax revenue generation. Ms. North stated that it appears to her the Village bought the property to build affordable housing and is now trying to justify this approach. She suggested the Village should take a vote of the entire community to decide what to do with the property. Brian Milnamow introduced himself as the moderator for the south Glen Ellyn resident Facebook group. Shared that he had numerous conversations with neighbors and based on those conversations he is against using the space for affordable housing. Property taxes in Glen Ellyn are too high in comparison to other DuPage County communities with median home values over $300,00, Glen Ellyn pays the highest percentage of property taxes. Higher than Wheaton, Clarendon Hills, Elmhurst, Oakbrook, Downers Grover and Burr Ridge. They are able to keep them low due to the abundance of commercial tax revenue that we do not have. Of the communities mentioned, only Downers Grove has a higher percentage of affordable housing than Glen Ellyn. Downers Grove pays 2% less in property taxes. The schools are incredibly important to our community. The schools are also why we agreed to pass a referendum to increase our school taxes. As a result of the referendum south Glen Ellyn residents pay more in taxes. The school that a housing development at this site would feed into is already the highest most diverse school with over 25% of the students are eligible to receive assistance. Adding affordable housing here will negatively impact our schools, test scores, and therefore impact the home values and therefore tax dollars into the schools. We should do all we can to optimize our existing affordable housing stock versus just adding more. Rechna Chandhori shared some information she collected, stating there are currently nine developments underway in Glen Ellyn, including 376 units of new housing. She explained that new development affects existing development. She asked about the total housing capacity of Glen Ellyn and questioned the Village’s ability to support additional housing. She noted there is an uneven balance of Roosevelt Road/Taft Avenue Ad Hoc Work Group April 6, 2022 Minutes Page 4 housing development which is continuing to increase school populations to a greater extent in District #89 (Parkview) vs. District #41 (Ben Franklin). Jamie Martin stated that anything built on the site will be better than the hotels were. She stated she has an autistic son who is 18. She explained that 80% of autistic kids are unemployed or underemployed. Ms. Martin noted the site is good option for supportive housing for developmentally disabled adults. Corey Meyers asserted there are not as many park district facilities in south Glen Ellyn as there are north of Roosevelt Road. He suggested an indoor recreational facility for sports, ball fields, etc. would be a welcome use for the site. Lauren Avanteen stated she heard there were four developments that were turned away by the Village and inquired as to why they were not supported by the Village. Village Manager Franz responded that the property has been on and off the market for a number of years. He further explained that he is unaware of any developments being brought forward to the Village or being turned down by the Village. Manager Franz responded that annual property taxes prior to the Village purchasing the property was $60,000. He noted that when redeveloped, the revenue stream will be higher. A member of the audience requested the Village provide an explanation of Tax Increment Financing (TIF). At the conclusion of Public Comment, President Senak asked the Work Group members to share their comments regarding redevelopment of the site. Discussion Member Durkin stated the Village needs to consider vehicle/pedestrian access to the site and pedestrian and vehicular safety. He discussed the need for people to have access to employment. He encouraged the completion of a traffic study to evaluate any proposed development. He noted the need for the Village to consider the return on investment when redeveloping the property and to consider the need to maintain an appropriate revenue base. Member Eber stated that he is a former shopping center developer. He noted that Taft Ave is used as an alternate to Roosevelt Road. He does not believe the site is convenient or safe for residential uses. He stated this is a challenging site because its irregular in shape and not appealing for commercial development. Mr. Eber stated that he ran a pro forma for the site and doesn’t believe the Village get a return on investment if its developed commercially. He reiterated the need to consider the impact to traffic on Taft Avenue. Member Thakkar shared her concerns about the safety of pedestrian/bikers. She stated she was not sure if the site is developed with affordable housing that it’s Roosevelt Road/Taft Avenue Ad Hoc Work Group April 6, 2022 Minutes Page 5 going to provide the best quality of life for the residents. She stated she believes the Village needs data to determine best use for the site. Member Nelson stated he believes redeveloping the site with housing is counterintuitive because of the surrounding uses. He noted that he feels there are two Glen Ellyn’s, with two Glen Ellyn school districts and higher taxes in south Glen Ellyn. He wants South Glen Ellyn schools to thrive, not suffer. He believes that if affordable housing is built on the site it will be an “island” and be out of place on Roosevelt Road. Member Tammaru (Superintendent of School District #89) stated that she is present to provide factual information about D89. She noted that the School District did change its boundaries years ago. She explained the District previously passed a referendum to support operating expenses and committed to not asking for additional funding for 10 years. She explained that based on the average home price in D89 of $427,000, residents will see a decrease in taxes of $239 due to some bonds expiring this spring. Dr. Tammaru stated that D89 enrollment has increased 12% while state-wide enrollment is down 17% and DuPage County enrollment is down 9.5%. She noted that in terms of capacity, the elementary schools as a whole are 85% full. Specifically, Parkview is the second most occupied school. She reviewed the 2021 District Report Cards for both D41 and D89. Member McGrane stated the hotels were a problematic use. He noted that the ability for South Glen Ellyn to generate tax revenue is limited due to the amount of land that is occupied by the Village Links [golf course] and the College of DuPage. He suggested a restaurant/gathering space is needed south of Roosevelt. He stated the site should remain commercial. He’s concerned about crime and overburdening schools if affordable housing is developed on the site. He noted the site is not ideal for residential due to the surrounding uses. He suggested considering housing for adults with disabilities at the U.S. Bank site. He asserted that it is dangerous to cross the streets in this area. He also expressed concern that putting housing on this site might violate EPA guidelines due to the proximity of a gas station. He asserted that he spoke with the Township Assessor who stated that commercial uses would generate more tax revenue. Trustee Payne asked the Work Group for their thoughts on the existing affordable housing on Pershing Avenue, located behind the Jewel/Osco. Member McGrane stated that while the affordable housing is surrounded by other housing uses, he doesn’t think it blends with the neighborhood. Ms. Wolfin, a member of the audience, mentioned she is an ESL teacher and knows many families who live in that housing complex and it’s a great place to live and for children to grow up. Roosevelt Road/Taft Avenue Ad Hoc Work Group April 6, 2022 Minutes Page 6 Member Mehta expressed concern about adding affordable housing on the site because of the increased tax burden. He believes this is a great opportunity on Roosevelt Road and it could be so much more. He concurred there is a need for affordable housing in the community, but reiterated this site is not best location. Member Hughes stated that she believes this discussion is a great opportunity for civil discourse within the community. She said he doesn’t want to exclude the less fortunate from the community. She explained there are non-profit housing developments which provide for people who need help with daily living and these entities manage their facilities. Member Kemp stated she understands and relates to the need for housing for disabled adults and senior housing. However, she is concerned about traffic safety if housing built on the hotel site. She expressed concerns with regard to the proximity of the gas station to the site, and limited access to amenities. She stated that affordable housing in this location seems impractical. Ms. Kemp suggested the Village consider a youth center or community center as a gathering place (e.g. Wheaton, Villa Park). Member Atchison restated the need for supportive housing in the community. She stated the property was available for years on the market. She believes the Village’s plans are not representative of all of Glen Ellyn. She stated there is a need to care for the community’s children. She shared the story of her son Rob who has a developmental disability and is limited to having no more than $2,000 at any time because otherwise some of his supportive services are taken away. She reiterated the need to provide supportive housing for adults with disabilities. Member Nelson stated the Pershing Apartments are an example of an appropriate transition from commercial to multi-family housing and then single-family housing. President Senak stated the estimated cost to demolish the building is approximately $1M dollar. He asked the Work Group for their thoughts on whether the Village should demolish the property. The following members support demolishing the buildings: Norris, Atchison, Nelson, Durkin. Member McGrane stated the Village should evaluate the total investment in the property before making the decision. Trustee Payne stated he doesn’t believe the cost to demolish the buildings has been fully evaluated. President Senak asked about Work Group’s interest in keeping the site as open land. Roosevelt Road/Taft Avenue Ad Hoc Work Group April 6, 2022 Minutes Page 7 The general consensus of the Work Group was that maintaining the site as open land long term doesn’t’ make sense. It may make sense in the short-term in order to allow the Village to acquire additional property for redevelopment. President drew an outline of the property, illustrating the existing Exmor right-of- way which splits the property. He asked the Work Group to consider selling just the portion of the portion which fronts Roosevelt Road. He noted that an easement needs to remain where the right-of-way currently lies and a traffic study evaluating the impact of vacating the right-of-way will also need to be completed. The Work Group acknowledged the possibility of selling only the Roosevelt Road portion but felt retaining the full property would maximize redevelopment opportunity. President Senak asked the Work Group to continue considering selling off portions of the property. He asked the Work Group if they thought the Village should put the property on the market now (for sale by owner)? Member Eber expressed concern that listing the property for sale now may cause confusion without a plan. Word is out about the Village owning the property in the commercial development world. Member McGrane stated the Village has a fiduciary responsibility to put the property on the market as we move forward. Member Thakkar stated she sees no harm in putting the property out there. Ms. Kemp concurred. Member Tammaru agreed with the notion of putting it on the market, stating that the Village doesn’t actually have to sell it. Member Durkin expressed concern someone may buy it before the buildings are taken down and then hold the property, which would result in the community and continuing to have problems with the site. Member Mehta stated he supported placing the property on the market, as the Village may get some good ideas in the process that will help inform things. Member Atchison agreed with Member Durkin and stated the Village should take the buildings down now. Member Nelson stated he had no strong opinion either way. Member Hughes believes we should wait to list the properties, noting the Village has entered into a process to be mindful and plan for a better result. She expressed concern if we sell the property we may lose control of the end result. Member McGrane stated he believes it’s better for a developer to buy the property and take the buildings down. He thinks the developer should take the financial risk. Roosevelt Road/Taft Avenue Ad Hoc Work Group April 6, 2022 Minutes Page 8 F.

To fetch the same price as townhouses, interior finishes would need to be higher quality. These units would attract younger households that might not be able to afford a single-family home in Glen Ellyn, as well as middle-aged households looking for a less maintenance-intensive option. A condo or apartment building of 4-5 stories would be appropriate given the commercial character of Roosevelt Road. Three-story structures are common in the surrounding neighborhood, and the nearby Brookdale Glen Ellyn senior building is 5 stories. The location across from open space with excellent access to shopping along Roosevelt Road makes this a desirable residential location. Although there have been few recent comparable land sales in Glen Ellyn, an appraisal prepared for the Village provided the following sales comparables.  Bucky's gas station, $16.96/SF in 2017 with 300 feet of frontage at 1125 Roosevelt Road.  Mattress Firm at 369 Roosevelt Road (east of Lambert), $21.70/SF in 2015 (141 feet on Roosevelt)  A car wash at 290 Schmale Road in Carol Stream, $19.84/SF  Culver's in Naperville, $17.85/SF with 217 feet of primary frontage on Naperville-Wheaton Road  A restaurant in Naperville, $23.81/SF in 2019 for 127-194 feet of primary frontage Based on the ultimate use, construction costs, sales or rent rates, a developer will determine what he or she can afford to pay for the land. 3 Page 8 of 44 NEWTON PARK ATRIA PARK OF GLEN ELLYN [SENIOR LIVING] STEPHANIE LN DUPAGE BLVD SOUTH SIDE PARK EXMOOR AVE BROOKDALE 1776 SENIOR MAIDEN LN GLEN ELLYN CARE POST OFFICE [SENIOR LIVING] [SENIOR SERVICES] FAITH LUTHERAN CHURCH PARK PLAZA ALDI TRADER NICOLL WAY BINNY’S JOE’S AVE RETAIL BLDG U.S. [MULTIPLE TENANTS] 5/3 RETAIL BLDG BANK SID E BANK [MULTIPLE TENANTS] PAR JIMMY RETAIL DANBY’S K JOHN’S ADVANCE ROSIN STATION FANNIE OFFICE RETAIL BLDG AUTO CAFE MAY [MULTIPLE TENANTS] PARTS ROOSEVELT RD 4 EXMOOR AVE WINGSTOP SHELL DUNKIN FIRESTONE STARBUCKS CHIPOTLE PANERA CHASE GLEN ELLYN PARK BLVD CVS CARE OF TREES CROSSING ANIMAL [MULTIPLE TENANTS] HOSPITAL 8 OFFICE ROSS DRESS JEWEL-OSCO 7 FOR LESS 1 2 3 5 6 TAFT AVE FIRE STATION [VILLAGE OWNED] ROOSEVELT GLEN OFFICE BLDG [MULTIPLE TENANTS] CORPORATE CENTER KINGSBROOK GLEN [TOWNHOMES] PERSHING AVE GLENGARRY [APARTMENTS] NICO PANFISH PARK [VILLAGE OWNED] POLICE Y DEPARTMENT WATERS EDGE LL WA [VILLAGE OWNED] [TOWNHOMES] WILSON AVE HARDING AVE 0 100 200 400 ft Site # Property Owner PIN Area (sq ft) Area (acres) Existing Zoning Land Use (per Comp Plan) Use 1 Glengold Hospitality LLC 05-23-200-012 22,286.86 0.51 C3: Service Commercial Corridor Commercial Budgetel Inn & Suites 2 Glengold Hospitality LLC 05-23-200-016 9,841.13 0.23 C3: Service Commercial Corridor Commercial Budgetel Inn & Suites 3 Glengold Hospitality LLC 05-23-200-021 7,198.13 0.17 C3: Service Commercial Corridor Commercial Budgetel Inn & Suites 4 Glengold Hospitality LLC 05-23-201-026 17,248.82 0.40 C3: Service Commercial Corridor Commercial Budgetel Inn & Suites 5 Glengold Hospitality LLC 05-23-200-007 8,114.59 0.19 C3: Service Commercial Corridor Commercial Vacant Lot 6 Glengold Hospitality LLC 05-23-200-008 7,903.41 0.18 C3: Service Commercial Corridor Commercial Vacant Lot 7 Glengold Hospitality LLC 05-23-201-028 23,426.60 0.54 C3: Service Commercial Corridor Commercial Vacant Lot 8 Glen Ellyn Properties LLC 05-23-201-024 23,839.14 0.55 C3: Service Commercial Corridor Commercial Care of Trees Last Revised: October 27, 2021 Redevelopment Site Data ROOSEVELT ROAD HOTEL REDEVELOPMENT SITE | VILLAGE OF GLEN ELLYN, IL 4 Page 9 of 44 RESIDENTIAL MARKET people making less money, including returning grown children, and working people in lower-paying Community Demographics industries such as retail, restaurants, personal and property services, assistant positions in medicine, To examine the residential market in Glen Ellyn, we education, and public service.

Senior properties have needed to exercise great caution around moves-in, if not freeze them entirely, and seniors and their families have been justifiably reluctant to congregate. The average rent of $4,075 is similar to last year’s level. Fifty-two percent of the independent living units are one-bedrooms, 33% are two-bedrooms, and almost all of the rest are studios. This is a common unit mix for senior housing, since senior households have only one or two people, and the cost of living over time becomes a concern. (Smaller units usually rent for less, as one would assume.) Each floor plan type is equally well occupied. Rents average $3,507- $5,147 for one- or two-bedrooms. As of 2019 and into 2020, independent living occupancy at these properties generally exceeded 95%, indicating a very healthy market in the midst or tail-end of a massive disruption from COVID.

If any additional parcels adjacent to the subject site were to become available, the retail offering could be expanded, which would facilitate more options. 21 Page 26 of 44 OFFICE MARKET Existing properties like these will continue to serve a need, but the market for new office development in Office Environment Glen Ellyn is minimal.

What is the size of the of the hotel site? The site consists of six parcels and the Exmoor Avenue right-of-way. In total, the site is 2.2 acres with frontage on both Roosevelt Road and Taft Avenue. 2. What about the current buildings on the site? There are two buildings on the site – a third building was previously demolished. The eastern building is two stories and the western building is a combination of two and three stories. Each building is approximately 20,000 square feet for a total of 40,000 square feet. Both buildings are currently vacant. 3. What is the current zoning? The property is currently zoned C3 commercial zoning which allows for a wide range of auto-oriented commercial uses. 4. What is the Comprehensive Plan designation? The 2001 Comprehensive Plan designates the site for commercial uses. The draft 2021 Comprehensive Plan identifies the site as a catalyst site for redevelopment, appropriate for office, retail or other commercial uses. 5. Is the property within a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District? Yes, the properties are located within the boundaries of the Roosevelt Road TIF District, which was established in 2013. For more information on the TIF, click here. 6. What are the current site constraints that may impact redevelopment? The site has many challenges. The frontage along Roosevelt Road is limited at approximately 125 feet. The frontage along Taft Avenue is more significant (850’) but less desireable from a commercial standpoint. Exmoor Avenue is public right-of-way VILLAGE OF GLEN ELLYN 1 ROOSEVELT ROAD HOTEL PROPERTIES FAQ’S Page 40 of 44 that splits the property. A large storm water structure is located underneath Exmoor, which will necessitate maintaining an easement overtop the structure. This easement cannot be built upon, restricting potential building layouts. Roosevelt Road is a state route and access is controlled by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). Changes to site access to/from Roosevelt Road must be reviewed and approved by IDOT. There is also a significant grade change from the north (Roosevelt) to the south (Taft) of the site, which will impact redevelopment costs and site design. 7. What is the history of the site? The hotel buildings were constructed in the 1950’s and were operated as traditional hotels for several decades. Unfortunately, previous owners of the hotels failed to maintain the buildings and they fell into disrepair. The eastern building sat vacant for several years while the western building was operated as an extended stay hotel. Due to the deteriorated nature of the building, it attracted criminal activity. The Village Police Department regularly monitored the properties and were frequently called to address drug activity, vandalism and other illegal activities. The properties were for sale on-and- off for several years. In order to address the ongoing deterioration of the structures and continued criminal activity on the site, the Village stepped in to purchase the properties. 8. Did the Village complete an Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) of the property? Yes, the Village completed a Phase 1 ESA, which can be viewed here. PURCHASE 9. Did the Village obtain an appraisal for the site before purchasing it? What did the property appraise for? Yes, the Village obtained an independent appraisal which can viewed here. The property was appraised at $2.175 million. 10. When did the Village purchase the properties? The Village entered into a Purchase and Sale agreement to buy the properties on July 2021. At the time the Village entered into the agreement, there were 19 guests staying on the property. A condition of the sale was that both buildings must be vacant at time of closing. The Village closed on the purchase of the properties on January 12, 2022. 11. What did the Village pay for the properties and how was the purchase funded? The Village purchased the properties for $2.85 million. The Village paid for the properties through General Fund Reserves ($2,000,000), Corporate Reserve Fund ($500,000) and the Roosevelt Road TIF Fund ($350,000). VILLAGE OF GLEN ELLYN 2 ROOSEVELT ROAD HOTEL PROPERTIES FAQ’S Page 41 of 44 FUTURE USE 12. What does the Village plan to do with the site? The Village has hired a consultant, Kon Savoy Consulting Group, to assist the Village Board in evaluating potential uses for the site. Using feedback obtained through the public engagement process and data from Market Assessment completed by the consultant, the Village Board will evaluate the feasibility of various office, commercial and residential. Ultimately, the Kon Savoy will assist the Village in preparing a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit development proposals for the site for redevelopment. 13. Will the Village be demolishing the buildings? The Village is currently evaluating whether to demolish the existing building. Both structures have been secured (boarded up). The Village Board will consider estimates to demolish the buildings and if it is determined in the best interest of the community to do so, the Village will solicit bids in accordance with our purchasing policy 14. How is the Village engaging the public? The Village has set forth a multi-step public engagement process in order to gather community input on redevelopment alternatives for the site. The process includes the following steps: a. Community Open House - March 7, 2022 b. Establishment of an Ad Hoc Work Group - Listening Session, April 6, 2022 (Additional listening sessions TBA) c. Concept Design Charrette d. Presentation to Plan Commission of Concepts & Public Comment e. Presentation of Village Board Concept & Public Comment The public may also comment through Social Pinpoint. Comments can be filtered based on content and sorted by date or popularity. 15. What are the results of the Market Assessment? The Market Assessment completed by Kon Savoy in partnership with Valerie Kretchmer and Associates identified a demand for small scale commercial uses and a variety of multi- family housing uses. It did not identify a demand for office uses on the site, due to existing available space in the market area. The complete Market Assessment can be viewed here. VILLAGE OF GLEN ELLYN 3 ROOSEVELT ROAD HOTEL PROPERTIES FAQ’S Page 42 of 44 16. Once a developer is selected then what happens? All development proposals would be required to provide a proforma and illustrate what the return on investment the Village would receive for any particular proposal. Once a proposal is decided upon, the selected developer will have to negotiate the purchase of the property from the Village, seek the appropriate zoning approvals and obtain all required building and storm water management permits. There will be a variety of public input opportunities throughout the review and approval process which is typical with many redevelopment projects within the Village. 17. There has been some discussion about affordable housing on the site? What is meant by “affordable” housing? “Affordable housing” is a general term that has many different definitions which can include many different types of housing and populations. a. Affordable Housing. Housing that has a value, cost or rental amount that is within the means of a household that may occupy moderate-income or low-income housing. In the case of owner-occupied dwelling units, housing that is affordable means housing in which mortgage, amortization, taxes, insurance, and condominium or association fees, if any, constitute no more than 30 percent of the gross annual household income for a household of the size that may occupy the unit. In the case of dwelling units for rent, housing that is affordable means housing for which the rent and utilities constitute no more than 30 percent of the gross annual household income for a household of the size that may occupy the unit. Source: Affordable Housing Planning and Appeal Act, or PA 93-595 b. Attainable Housing. There is no universal definition of attainable housing. Some identify the term as equivalent to affordable housing and yet others define it as for- sale housing that is affordable to households with incomes between 80 and 120 of the area median income. Many reports on the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), website use the terms interchangeably. For the purposes of this memo, attainable housing is defined as equivalent to affordable housing. c. Age-in-Place Housing. Diversity of affordable housing in a community that allows residents to remain in their community without losing quality of life and access to familiar community services as they age. Age-in-place and age-in-community are sometimes used interchangeably, however age-in-place is more focused on people remaining in their current homes. d. Low-Income Housing. Housing that is affordable, according to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, for either home ownership or rental, and that is occupied, reserved, or marketed for occupancy by households with a gross household income that does not exceed 50% of the area median household income. VILLAGE OF GLEN ELLYN 4 ROOSEVELT ROAD HOTEL PROPERTIES FAQ’S Page 43 of 44 e. Acheivable or “Missing Middle” Housing. A type of housing classified by both building type and income bracket of residents; consists of duplexes, townhomes, multi-plexes and other multi-family developments scaled to blend within single-family neighborhoods that are also attainable for single persons, couples, and seniors not living within a senior housing development intended for exclusively seniors. f. Affordable Senior Housing. A type of affordable multi-family residential housing or housing subsidy intended for use by people of retirement age, typically benchmarked as age 65 or older, within the middle- or low- income brackets; this can include, but is not limited to, housing developments such as independent living communities, assisted living communities, and memory-care facilities for those experiencing declining memory function; may also consist of programs which subsidize housing costs for qualifying residents (age and income). g. Workforce Housing. Broadly considered housing which is ‘affordable’ for moderate or middle income households’; specifically considered housing which is no more than 30% of the household income for those households earning 80-120% of the area median income; usually excludes households which do not qualify for housing subsidies; intended for households to live in the communities in which they work. h. Supportive Housing. Supportive housing provides on-site or near-site professional and case management services that assist residents in need of specific support in order to thrive while living independently. These services could range from answering questions and help finding community resources to more complex issues involving intellectual or physical challenges. Educational and social programs are also provided to residents. i. Accessible Housing. Housing is accessible when it is close to essential services like public transportation, schools, grocery stores, and medical facilities. Accessible housing is close to community amenities like restaurants, retail stores and libraries. It also includes accessibility in terms of physical access to the building and within the building as well. 18. Does Glen Ellyn have enough “affordable housing”? This is a challenging question to answer as what constitutes “enough” affordable housing is subjective. Under Illinois State Law, the Village is required to have 10% of its housing stock qualify as “affordable”. Currently, the Village of Glen Ellyn exceeds the State requirement, with a total of 16% of our housing stock being considered “affordable”.
