He stated Mr. Koenig is present tonight if there are any questions. There were none.
OLD BUSINESS
1. Peers – House Rule Change to Consider No-Smoking Policy Change (tabled from December HC Meeting)
Senior Planner Coleman reminded everyone of the issue from November, 2025 and explained same. The
change would involve no smoking permitted inside the property. The motion previously failed to change
the house rules, and the topic was tabled. He advised the properties Evergreen manages have a no-
smoking policy with no real issues.
Some HC comments are…..
• Commissioner Beasley said she doesn’t see a point in having the rule, as it can’t be enforced;
unnecessary. There is an issue with having residents going outside away from the front door.
There is no plan on where snow would be placed, etc.
• Commissioner Adland asked, and Senior Planner Coleman said it would eventually weed out those
people who would be unhappy with the change, as new residents move in.
• Commissioner Farris asked, and Senior Planner Coleman shared issues at other properties.
• Commissioner Adland offered an example of an item smelling of smoke; could be degradation of
the property. He is in favor of the rule change.
• Commissioner Beasley said, regarding affordable housing, some may not move in due to these
limitations.
• Chairperson Fernandez Sykes asked, and Senior Planner Coleman said he would check about
Sunset Woods’ policy. He indicated Walnut Place has a no-smoking policy.
• Commissioner Beasley shared this was posed at an HC meeting years ago, and the HC voted
against it. Senior Planner Coleman confirmed that was in 2019.
• Commissioner Farris understands both sides.
• Commissioner Beasley said residents can move out if they don’t like the rules. She expressed this
is one’s home. She understands other residents’ discomfort.
• Commissioner Farris said there is an onus on the HC to see what the best choice is for residents.
A brief discussion took place about pets.
Senior Planner Coleman reminded there is a 90-day period before a rule changes. Residents can come to
an HC meeting and express their opinions. He advised the HC can also reverse a rule change.
More HC comments are…..
• Commissioner Beasley would be in favor if it occurs at the end of the year – with a one-year notice
– or grandfather people in. She also understands both points of view. Senior Planner Coleman
doesn’t believe residents would be evicted for smoking in a non-smoking building. This proposal
would eliminate smoking in one’s dwelling. It is already in place to not smoke in common areas.
He explained an area 15’ away would be designated.
• Chairperson Fernandez Sykes said more questions need to be answered.
• Commissioner Farris said the notice period of 90 days is not the issue. It’s when it’s implemented.
• Commissioner Adland said federal housing is smoke-free.

Tenant A/R Increased from $0 at the end of December to $35.90 at the end of January.
Subsidy A/R Increased from $488 at the end of December to $4,184 at the end of January.
Tenant delinquency includes:
Current delinquency: $27 (7 tenants)
Ravinia Housing (17 units)
Tenant A/R decreased from $900.69 at the end of December to $712.47 at the end of January.
Subsidy A/R Increased from $87.00 at the end of December to $493 at the end of January.
Tenant delinquency includes:
Current delinquency: $486 (4 tenants)
30-day delinquency: $147 (1 tenant)
Three tenants signed payment plans.
**Note**
These charges fluctuate from month to month. If a resident pays rent late or not at all, it
causes the Tenant A/R to increase the following month.
With regard to the subsidy A/R, we request the rent from HUD, 1 month in advance. For
Example: On July 1st, we send our HAP/Voucher subsidy request to HUD, for the month of
June. Because of this, activities like move-ins, move-outs or certifications, will affect the
subsidy A/R balance; causing it to increase or decrease. Tenants that have entered into
repayment agreements would create A/R balances for either the tenant or subsidy ledgers as
well, as the property is required to pay back the incorrect amount received by HUD due to the
error, and then collect that amount directly from the resident as part of their repayment
agreement.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Highland Park Housing Commission
FROM: Irina Leykin and Harold Eich
RE: January 2026 Management Report and December 2025 Financials
DATE: January 30, 2026
FRANK B. PEERS
Operations
• Management has initiated preparations for the pipe replacement project. These preliminary
steps are necessary to ensure the safety of residents and to reduce disruption during
construction.
• Management actively reviews electricity and gas provider programs to pursue eligible
incentives for common-area lighting upgrades and partial reimbursements related to the
replacement of outdated refrigerators.
• The property ended the year with positive NOI. Cash flow improved steadily, and NOI
exceeded budget due to savings from the phone/internet provider replacement.
Occupancy
• At present, there is one vacant unit.
Financial
• Net Operating Income (NOI) in December was negative to budget by ($4,096) MTD and YTD
NOI was positive to budget by $24,168. Cash carry over was at $1,364,482.03. Debt Service
Coverage Ratio for December was 2.03.
Income
• Income was positive to budget MTD by $702 and negative ($3,984) YTD.
Expense
• Expense line items which were significantly over budget (more than $1,000 YTD) include:
o Vacancy loss – YTD due to a high (5 units) turnover rate.
o Legal expense – YTD variance due to Union complaint for the previous periods when the
property didn’t have maintenance. Fees were still due to the Union.
o Bad debts – YTD variance due to former tenant balance write off.
o Temp maintenance contractor –YTD variance due to employing temporary maintenance while
staff is on leave from May until August. The account is partially offset by positive variance in
Repairs payroll account.
o Union benefits – YTD variance due to 2024 fees paid in 2025.
o Miscellaneous repair contractors –YTD variance due to irrigation repairs and 2024 invoice for
preventative maintenance of entrance system.

o Security Contractor - Variance due to FireWatch service expenses while the fire panel was
disabled.
o Repair and Maintenance Supplies – MTD and YTD variance due to replacement of faucets,
cartridges revealed during internal inspection. The account is offset by positive variance in
Plumbing account as most works are completed in-house.
o HVAC – YTD variance due to major repairs to Boiler#2; frozen pipe repair; replaced fan motor
on roof unit; condenser replacement for the elevator cooling system.
o Decorating (unit turns) – YTD variance due to more unit turns than budgeted, doors and
floorings required replacement, painting.
o Carpet and tyle – YTD variance due to 6 units requiring replacement and hallway replacement
after water damage.
o Property and liability insurance - Wind insurance wasn't part of budget.
Wind insurance overlapped with timing from 2024-2025 vs 2025-2026. In 2024-2025 Wind
insurance started from October vs in 2025-2026 it started from August 2025.

Accounts Receivable Update
December 2025
Frank B. Peers (68 units)
Tenant A/R decreased from $19.03 at the end of November to $0 at the end of December.
Subsidy A/R decreased from $2,370 at the end of November to $488 at the end of December.
Tenant delinquency includes:
Current delinquency: $22 (5 tenants)
Ravinia Housing (17 units)
Tenant A/R decreased from $1,205.42 at the end of November to $900.69 at the end of December.
Subsidy A/R decreased from $1,298.00 at the end of November to $87.00 at the end of December.
Tenant delinquency includes:
Current delinquency: $525 (3 tenants)
30-day delinquency: $187 (1 tenants)
Three tenants signed payment plans.
**Note**
These charges fluctuate from month to month. If a resident pays rent late or not at all, it
causes the Tenant A/R to increase the following month.
With regard to the subsidy A/R, we request the rent from HUD, 1 month in advance. For
Example: On July 1st, we send our HAP/Voucher subsidy request to HUD, for the month of
June. Because of this, activities like move-ins, move-outs or certifications, will affect the
subsidy A/R balance; causing it to increase or decrease. Tenants that have entered into
repayment agreements would create A/R balances for either the tenant or subsidy ledgers as
well, as the property is required to pay back the incorrect amount received by HUD due to the
error, and then collect that amount directly from the resident as part of their repayment
agreement.

Memorandum
Date: March 4, 2026
To: Housing Commission
From: Zubin Coleman, Senior Planner
Subject: Peers House Rule Change to Non-Smoking Policy on Property
Background
Irina Leykin of Evergreen Real Estate Services (ERES) reached out to Staff requesting that
the Housing Commission consider a change in the Peers’ House Rules changing Peers to a
non-smoking property. Currently, Residents are allowed to smoke inside their units. No
smoking is allowed in the common areas or within 15 feet of the main entrances of the
building.
Proposed House Rule Change
ERES Management has received multiple requests from current residents to convert Peers
into a non-smoking property due to health concerns associated with second-hand smoke.
To implement this change, ERES will revise the existing House Rules (see Attachment 1)
to include a non-smoking policy and issue a 60–90 day notice prior to the effective date,
requiring residents to sign the updated House Rules acknowledging the policy. ERES
Management will inform the Housing Commission with ramifications as a result of any
House Rule change.
Dec. 3, 2025 HC Consideration
This item was recently introduced at the December 3rd, 2025 Housing Commission meeting.
ERES explained the reasoning for the proposed rule change to the Commission. Initial
reaction to the rule change and reasoning was divided, with some of Commissioners
expressing concern for residents who would need to travel further off-property to smoke
during the harsh winter months.
The Commission also expressed concern that the Peers residents would not be properly
notified and not given the chance to voice their disagreement to the proposed rule change.
Irina Leykin would later go on to say that any rule change requires a minimum 60-day
notice before implementation. After a motion to approve the rule change failed (2-3), a
motion was later made to table the rule change to February passed (4-1). 60 days from the
Feb. 4th meeting would ensure that no change would be made until the beginning of Spring,
where the weather wouldn’t be as harsh as it currently is. Minutes from the December
meeting for this item are included as Attachment 2.

Memorandum
2019 HC Consideration
In 2019, Staff bought a similar non-smoking proposal to the Housing Commission for
consideration. The memo (see Attachment 3), highlighted HUD’s no-smoking policy that
applies to all federally-funded affordable housing properties. Peers, in addition to Ravinia
and Sunset Woods, are not federally-funded properties so a Smoke-Free policy is not
required. HUD’s Smoke-Free policy prohibits lit tobacco products in all living units, indoor
common areas, administrative offices and all outdoor areas within 25 feet of the housing
building.
Further, at the March 2019 meeting, the Commission considered potential issues with
enforcing a no-smoking policy. Given the privacy of the resident’s units, finding evidence of
smoking would require a more thorough level of management attention and enforcement.
The Commission was concerned with maintaining this level of enforcement.
The 2019 memo also cited past experience that ERES had with implementing No-Smoking
policies at other ERES-managed housing properties. At the time, ERES agreed that
enforcement issues persisted at the properties where the rule change took place.
However, ERES cited their no-smoking policy at other housing properties as a success. By
incorporating the policy change, it inevitably reduced the number of resident smokers who
moved into their buildings and came to the conclusion that while some issues may occur at
the onset of the policy change, those issues could be offset over time when taking new
residents into account.
At that 2019 March HC meeting, the Commission ultimately did not cite the proposed
house rule change as necessary and voted not to establish Peers as an entire non-smoking
property. The No-Smoking house rule change has not been bought to Housing Commission
for consideration since 2019.
Recommendation
Staff recommend that the Commission consider a No-Smoking policy change to the House
Rules at the Frank B. Peers property. Any change to the house rules requires Housing
Commission consideration and approval. An example of the verbiage for the rule change is
included in the ERES Smoke-Free Policy FAQ from their other properties (see
Attachment 4).

Frank Peers House Rules Updated 5/1/2014
These rules are for the benefit of all residents and are a part of the lease. It is your
responsibility to read and understand both the lease and the House Rules. If there is any part of
the Lease or House Rules that you do not understand, please contact the Management Office.
House Rules may be revised at any time by Management, and residents will be given 30-days
notice of any changes.
You are responsible for informing your household members and any visitors of these rules. You
are responsible for your visitor’s behavior. The Resident Household will be responsible for any
Lease and House Rules violations made by your family members and any of your guests.
Violations of these rules may cause termination of your lease.
The rent collection policy is posted in the site office and in the property handbook.
1. Alcohol
Open alcoholic beverages are not permitted in any common areas, on the grounds and or in the
parking lot. Residents are required to follow all applicable laws related to serving alcohol in their
apartments. Violations of these laws will be considered a material non-compliance violation of
the lease.
2. Annual or other Certifications
Households are required to recertify at least annually. Households reporting zero income must
come to the office every 120 days and complete the Zero Income Affidavit. You are required to
report any changes in income of $200 per month or more and changes in household size to the
Management Office within 10 calendar days of your receipt of the information.
FRAUD: Providing false information or not reporting all of your income may be considered fraud and a
violation of the law. If Management determines that a Resident acted fraudulently, termination of tenancy
may occur. Fraud is handled as both a civil violation and as a criminal violation.
Sexual predator checks and criminal background checks are conducted on all residents age
18 and over during the recertification process. Lease terminations will occur for all households
that have had criminal activity within the last 12 months.
Regulations require that Management verify personal and income information at various times
through EIV (Enterprise Income Verification). This information will assist in matching what a
resident has reported as income with the income that is on file with state and federal agencies.
If there are discrepancies Management is required to contact the resident and resolve the
discrepancies. Residents are required to cooperate with this process or the rent may be
increased to market rent until the discrepancy is resolved.
Within 10 days of any resident reaching his/her 18th birthday, the resident must come to the
office to sign the Notice for Release of Information forms, the Lease and other required
paperwork. EIV reports will be run for that resident.
3. Apartment Abandonment
.The apartment must be your sole and only residence. If the resident family is absent from the
unit for more than 120 days unless for a verified medical reason, the unit will be considered
Page 1 of 9 Resident Initials: ___________
Page 80 of 210
Frank Peers House Rules Updated 5/1/2014
abandoned, and the lease will be terminated. If any member of the household is out of the unit
for more than 150 days in one year for a non-medical reason, the resident will be removed from
the lease. (This does not apply to dependent students living in a dorm)
4. Attire/Clothing
Applicants and residents must be appropriately attired in all common areas and when visiting
the Management Office. Appropriate attire includes shoes, shirts and appropriate pants or
skirts. Attire with gang symbols is not permitted on the property or in any common area.
Unacceptable attire in common areas includes: pajamas, robes, bathing suits and clothing that
allows displays of underwear or open sores or wounds.
5. Barred Guests
Residents are required to inform their guests of the rules and regulations. Guests violating
house rules or the resident’s lease will be “barred” from the property. A “Barred” list will be
posted in the Management Office.
The “barred” person who comes onto the property may be arrested for criminal trespassing. If
the resident is seen in the company of a barred” person on the property, or permits a “barred”
person onto the property, this is grounds for termination of the lease.
Any resident who has been evicted, or was in the process of eviction and moved from the
property, is “barred” from returning to the property.
6. Bedbugs, pest infestation:
Residents must immediately report to the Management Office any sighting of bedbugs or any
other bugs (roaches, water-bugs, fleas and lice) and vermin in your unit, or when you visit
another unit. (If the office is closed, the report must be made as soon as the office is open.) If
you are uncertain as to whether you have bed bugs or other pests, let the Management Office
know immediately so that a maintenance person or a licensed exterminator perform a thorough
inspection.
New residents must sign the Pest-Free Certification, attached to these House Rules upon move-
in. Residents must follow the written procedures for disposal of items that have become
infested. A copy of those procedures may be requested from the Management Office. If
procedures are not followed, residents may be billed for costs that are incurred as a result.
Treatment of an infested unit is not voluntary. Refusal to cooperate with treatment, as approved
by Management, will result in a lease violation.
7. Behavior
Verbal or physical intimidation, bullying, racial, ethnic or religious slurs of any kind, verbal or
physical harassment or threats to residents, residents’ guests, site staff, or contracted vendors,
or any activity or behavior that is disruptive to the security or quiet enjoyment of the property by
others is not permitted. Residents are responsible for the actions of their guests and family
members while on the property. Victims should report such incidents to the police.
Residents and/or resident’s guests are not to congregate or loiter in hallways, stairwells, parking
lot or grounds. Residents are prohibited from violating local curfew ordinances, engaging in any
gang-related activity or interfering with any police activity.
Page 2 of 9 Resident Initials: ___________
Page 81 of 210
Frank Peers House Rules Updated 5/1/2014
8. Businesses
No business, including volunteer work conducted from your unit, may be operated without prior
written knowledge and written permission by Management, as there are specific guidelines for
in-unit businesses that must be observed. No advertising of any business may be placed on the
property, on the windows or on the buildings or on the City’s property near the buildings.
9. Change in income or family composition:
ANY changes in family composition or income must be reported to the Management office within
10 calendar days. This includes new employment, unemployment, loss of job, addition of
family members, move-out of any current family members, and change in Student status for
high school and institutions of higher education.
10. Common Areas/Passageways
All personal possessions must be kept in the apartment. Passages, public halls, stairways and
landings are for no other purpose than for ingress (entering) or egress (exiting) from the building
or apartments. Residents may not block or obstruct these spaces, nor will anyone be permitted
to congregate or play in these areas. Items found in these spaces will be discarded by
Management and removal costs charged to the resident.
11. Crime-free and Drug-free
Frank Peers is a crime-free and drug-free property. Illegal activity is not allowed on the
grounds or in your apartment. Residents involved in any illegal activity (including illegal
drug use, holding/storage of illegal items) or permitting their guests to be involved in any
illegal activity while on the property will be subject to termination of lease. Any resident
harboring a fugitive will be subject to termination of lease.
12. Damages
Normal “wear and tear” within apartments is expected. Damages or vandalism to apartments
and/or the property are considered lease violations and residents will be billed for the repairs.
Residents will be billed separately for damages and/or neglect and payment will be due within
30 days of receipt of the bill.
Appliances may only be replaced or changed by the Management Office. Mildew and
deterioration caused by turning off refrigerators for any length of time could result in
replacement of the appliance at the resident’s expense.
No furniture filled with liquid or waterbeds may be brought into the unit.
Residents may not dismantle any fire related equipment in their apartments. Batteries may not
be removed from smoke detectors. This will result in a lease violation and/or immediate
termination of lease.
13. Decorating
Any alteration of the apartment may be done only with prior written approval from the
Management Office. This includes any painting; stenciling; wallpaper or borders; contact paper;
removal of window treatment; removal of carpet or flooring materials; holes in the wall for
pictures; or any changes to other property owned surfaces. The property has a schedule for
cycle painting and floor replacement and the need to perform those tasks earlier might be
Page 3 of 9 Resident Initials: ___________
Page 82 of 210
Frank Peers House Rules Updated 5/1/2014
considered “damages” or beyond “normal wear and tear,” resulting in a lease violation and/or bill

for each window.
No signs, posters, stickers, stenciling, ads, notices or other lettering, or equipment may be

stereos, game systems. Noise levels must be low enough to remain with your apartment and
not be heard from the hallway or another apartment.
15. Flammable Items/Hazardous Materials/Safety

fireworks; flammable oils or fluids such as gasoline, kerosene, naphtha, and benzene; or other

6.Violence Against Women Act
The property is covered under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), which applies to both
men and women. This gives residents certain protections and support when a resident reports
an incident of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking or sexual assault. All witnessed
physical or domestic violence incidents must be immediately reported to Police. Any type of
violence against another member of your household or any member of the community will
immediately result in a report to the police and possible termination of lease.
Physical violence, dating violence, stalking or sexual assault by a guest or another resident
toward any resident will result in the offender being barred from the property, immediately after
the action and permanently when the legal case is resolved. After contacting the police for
these incidents, the management office, Security, and the Service Coordinator (if the property
has this position), should be informed.
Any resident claiming to be a victim of one of these acts covered under VAWA, is asked to
report the incident to the police immediately and then complete and sign/date the Certification
paperwork (form 91006) to report the incident to management. Instead of this form,
documentation by an agent of a victim service provider, an attorney, a medical professional
from whom the victim has asked for help is acceptable, under penalty of perjury. This
information will be kept confidential from other residents, except to the extent as required by law
for legal purposes in a court of law. Once a police report is filed by the victim, and the
paperwork is complete and received by management within 10 days, management will
evaluate the paperwork, and if the claim appears to be valid, management will work with the
victim, the police and Social Services, if applicable to protect the victim in accordance with HUD
guidelines for VAWA.

There was no Old Business.
NEW BUSINESS
1. Peers – House Rule Change to Consider No-Smoking Policy Change
Senior Planner Coleman illustrated a memo that Evergreen Staff initiated regarding the No-Smoking Policy
Change at Peers. He noted, in the past, it was agreed to not place a rule or enforce same. Senior Planner
Coleman referred to Page 2 of the document and read language of the rule change.
Ms. Leykin provided verbage used at other properties.
Some HC comments are:
• Commissioner Rosen asked why this is being brought forward now. Ms. Leykin said there have
been complaints about second-hand smoking. Air purifiers clear the air but not in their entirety.
She noted most of HUD’s properties have a No-Smoking Policy in common areas. Tenants do
smoke in their units. There is no way to enforce it (cannot evict). This policy will encourage people
to not smoke in their unit. They may walk away from the front door to do so.
• Commissioner Beasley asked:
o where the information on no-smoking is. Ms. Leykin said a device was used to measure
smoke. She shared violations and notifications have been given about non-HUD buildings

MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING OF
HOUSING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF HIGHLAND PARK, ILLINOIS
o Ms. Leykin explained most ERES-managed buildings have non-smoking policies.
• Commissioner Shapiro Kopin advised Sunset Woods recently declared a non-smoking policy.
• Commissioner Farris noted this provides a deterrent.
• Ms. Leykin stated that Housing Commission (controlling entity) determines what the policy is. She
oversees 11 properties, and none allow smoking. She noted Walnut Place had a smoking policy.
It is now under consideration to have a non-smoking policy.
• Commissioner Shapiro Kopin said this is beneficial for health reasons.
• Acting Chair Gonzalez asked how elderly or handicapped residents can go outside to smoke. Ms.
Leykin advised the City of Highland Park authorizes a place for smoking.
• Commissioner Farris said there is a burden to have an elderly or handicapped person walk 25’
from the front door.
• Acting Chair Gonzalez said he is in favor of this new policy, but all aspects should be considered.
Ms. Leykin said they need to act on these concerns.
• Commissioner Farris asked, and Senior Planner Coleman responded that this could be continued
• Commissioner Beasley would appreciate the opportunity for Peers residents to come forward and
provide feedback on rule change.
• Commissioner Beasley asked if this could apply only to new residents. Ms. Leykin said that would
go against the Fair Housing Act.
Senior Planner Coleman reminded this is the first meeting for consideration of this new policy.
Commissioner Shapiro Kopin moved to approve the current proposal for the House Rule Change. Acting
Chair Gonzalez seconded the motion.
Commissioner Rosen believes smoking shouldn’t be prohibited. He suggested perhaps residents be
alerted that there may be a change coming. Commissioner Beasley is concerned about mobility to get to
the designated area outside.
On a voice vote:
Voting Yea: Acting Chair Gonzalez & Commissioner Shapiro Kopin
Voting Nay: Commissioners Beasley, Farris, Rosen
Staff declared the motion failed 2-3.
Additional HC comments are:
• Commissioner Farris asked that this topic be on the agenda for the February meeting.
• Commissioner Shapiro Kopin said, regarding cold weather, this is not to evict residents. It’s just to
recommend smokers go outdoors for a 5-minute smoke.
She recalled there still has to be a policy implemented for evictions.
• Commissioner Beasley reminded there was a precedent not to put this policy in place previously.
• Commissioner Rosen said a policy could happen, but he would like time be given to residents to
digest this change. Then he could vote yes in the future.

• Acting Chair Gonzalez said there are health issues. He asked what other information is necessary.
• Commissioner Farris prefers that ample notice be given to residents. Ms. Leykin said this is food
for thought. She explained there would be a process. A minimum of 60 days must be given for a
House Rule Change.
• Commissioner Shapiro Kopin said she would like to see the process begin now.
• Commissioner Beasley said minor tweaks could occur, feedback could be given from residents.
Commissioner Beasley moved to continue this matter to the February HC meeting. Acting Chair Gonzalez
seconded the motion.
On a voice vote:
Voting Yea: Acting Chair Gonzalez; Commissioners Beasley, Farris, & Rosen
Voting Nay: Commissioner Shapiro Kopin
Staff declared the motion passed 4-1.

to the Compliance Department.
2. Approving Peers, Ravinia, & Sunset Woods Association 2026 Budgets
Senior Planner Coleman referred to the agenda packet. He said there isn’t much difference from last year.
Some HC comments are:
• Commissioner Shapiro Kopin asked if there is a change in the budget regarding reserve analysis
for Ravinia. Ms. Leykin explained the first column/withdrawals and second column. She noted
things can change after the auditor’s review regarding taking money from reserves. There is a
different format for reserves. Ms. Leykin can provide same. Senior Planner Coleman explained the
City’s formats.
• Commissioner Rosen asked, and Senior Planner Coleman explained the information part is being

(Resident FAQ)
Frequently Asked Questions Regarding the Smoke Free Facility Policy
Will I have to move or be evicted because I smoke?
No. A smoke-free initiative is not a "no-smoker" initiative- smokers will simply have to
step outside and at least 25 feet away from the building to an allowable area. However,
repeated violations of the rules may result in termination of tenancy. While smoking is
prohibited, applicants should not be denied occupancy and existing tenants should not be
evicted, simply because they are smokers. We will also make available for you resources
if you are looking to cut back or quit smoking. Please contact the management office for
these contacts and resources.
What Is Secondhand Smoke?
The American Lung Association defines secondhand smoke is a mixture of the smoke
given off by the burning end of a smoked tobacco product and the smoke exhaled from
the lungs of smokers. Secondhand smoke contains hundreds of chemicals known to be
toxic or cancer causing, including formaldehyde, benzene, vinyl chloride, arsenic,
ammonia, and hydrogen cyanide. Secondhand smoke is also called environmental
tobacco smoke and exposure to secondhand smoke is called involuntary smoking, or
passive smoking. There is no safe level of second hand smoke exposure.
Why is the smoke-free initiative program a benefit to me and my family?
The smoke-free initiative will significantly reduce the exposure to secondhand smoke
which is a recognized health hazard. Additionally, your building will smell fresher and
cleaner, and the risk of fire will be reduced. Lastly, having a no smoking policy will also
lessen the risk of fire. Smoking is the leading cause of fire death in the United States.
According to the National Fire Protection Association's report "The Smoking-Material
Fire Problem," nearly one in four (24%) victims who die in residential smoking-related
fires is not the smoker whose cigarette started the fire. The National Fire Protection
Agency reported that U.S. fire departments responded to an estimated 82,400 smoking-
material fires in 2012. These fires caused 800 civilian deaths, 1,660 civilian injuries, and
$575 million in direct property damage. Fires caused by smoking are costly, deadly, and
leave many people with damaged property and no place to live. It is for these
compelling reasons that we developed the following sample house rule change that will
be used as part of this program.
What is the smoke-free initiative for my building, and how will it be enforced?
You will be provided with a copy of the new house rules before they are implemented.
The following provision will be added to the current house rules. Repeated violations of
the non smoking policy may result in termination of tenancy.
Page 94 of 210
Sample "house-rule" provision:
This property is a smoke free facility.
Due to increased risk of fire and the known health effects of secondhand smoke,
smoking is prohibited in any area of the property, both private and common, indoors, and
within 25 feet of the building(s) including entryways, balconies and patios, as well as all
exterior common use areas, playground areas and near any exterior window or door. This
policy applies to all residents, guests, and service persons. Residents are responsible for
ensuring that all household members and guests comply with this rule. The term
"smoking" is defined as inhaling, exhaling, burning or carrying any lighted cigarette,
cigar, pipe, or other products, including marijuana and e-cigarettes.
What if marijuana is legal in my state for medical or recreational use?
All smoking products are prohibited in our building to both reduce the risk of fire and to
avoid the spread of second hand smoke to other residents. This includes marijuana.
Regardless of the purpose for which legalized under state law, the use of marijuana in
any form is illegal under the Controlled Substance Act (CSA) and therefore is an illegal
controlled substance.
Why are a-cigarettes prohibited?
Electronic cigarettes, also known as e-cigarettes or vapor cigarettes are battery operated
devices that resemble traditional cigarettes. Instead of burning tobacco, they contain
cartridges filled with nicotine and other chemicals. When the e-cigarette is used, the
liquid chemicals in the cartridge are turned into a vapor or steam that is inhaled by the
smoker. The California Department of Department of Health recently issued a warning
about the dangers of e-cigarettes, citing that the vapor or steam they produce contain at
least 10 chemicals known to cause cancer or birth defects.
Signs will be posted throughout the building and property notifying residents, their
guests, and vendors of the smoke-free initiative. Warning notices, counseling and
attorney action will be initiated for failing to follow the smoke-free initiative just as
for not following any other house rule.

Joel Fontane
Community Development
City of Highland Park
1150 Half Day Road
Highland Park, IL 60035
Dear Joel,
As requested during our recent meeting, this letter provides an estimate of our budgeted
Community Land Trust (CLT) project expenses for FY2026 budgeting purposes.
Last year (2024 scattered-site grant), CPAH added three CLT homes to Highland Park’s
inventory of permanently affordable homes. Total project expenses for acquisition,
rehabilitation, carrying costs (i.e. insurance, utilities, property taxes), and closing costs
averaged to be approximately $428,666 per home. Specifically, CPAH added one
2bd/1bth single family home at a cost of $396,000, one 3bd/2bth single family home at
$425,000, and one 4bd/2bth single family home at $465,500. Bear in mind these are now
fully rehabilitated, energy efficient homes that meet current code standards.
This year, we are currently rehabilitating three homes (2025 grant) that are estimated to
cost, on average, approximately $440,000 per home (all 3-bedroom single family homes).
The Highland Park Housing Trust Fund contribution per home is $97,850 this year, with
the remaining costs being covered by sales proceeds (approximately $210,000), federal
grants (approximately $125,000 per home), and private donations.
Increased home prices and the lack of available supply has made it very difficult to add
CLT homes over the past few years. However, we still successfully added three CLT
homes per year with relatively modest increases to the Highland Park Housing Trust Fund
contribution. It is difficult to predict what the housing market and federal funding
landscape will look like next year. Nonetheless, we understand there is a need to estimate
our costs next year for the City’s budgeting purposes.
At this point, we are not expecting a big jump in home prices next year. In fact, we’re
beginning to see a little more supply being available compared to the past two years.
However, there are drastic cuts being proposed to federal grant programs such as HOME
and CDBG that we rely on to subsidize Highland Park’s CLT homes. The President’s
current “skinny budget” proposes the complete elimination of both the HOME and CDBG
programs. The President proposed the elimination of these programs during his first term
in office as well but congress did not approve the elimination. However, there were
substantial cuts to both programs. It is difficult to know how much would actually be cut
next year but several proposals are estimating cuts of up to 50%.
w w w. c p a h o u s i n g . o r g
phone 847.263.7478
fax 847.263.9381
Page 96 of 210
Based on the anticipated cuts to federal programs, we would like to request an increase
of the 2026 Highland Park Housing Trust Fund contribution from $97,850 per home to
$125,000 per home (approximately a 25% increase). If the Housing Commission would
like to add three CLT homes again next year (in addition to the townhomes on Deerfield
Road), we would therefore like to request a budgeted amount of up to $375,000. CPAH
would only draw funds as needed – i.e. if less than $375,000 was needed we would draw
less and/or or perhaps we would only need to draw $100,000 on one home and $150,000
on another - so long at the total does not exceed $375,000.
As always, please don’t hesitate to contact me at 847-263-7478 ext 22 or
ranthony@cpahousing.org if you would like to discuss further.
Sincerely,
Rob Anthony, President

{00115931.6}
Page 99 of 210
1. Evidence Regarding the Acquisition of the Properties. CPAH shall provide
the Housing Commission with evidence of the seller, location, and anticipated purchase price of
the specific Property or Properties to which the particular Draw Request pertains.
2. Compliance with Housing Commission’s Requirements. A certification
from Grantee that Grantee, to its best knowledge, has complied with the Housing Commission’s
requirements set forth in Grantee’s Grant Application, as approved by the Housing Commission.
3. Evidence Regarding Funding for Project. Evidence (a) of all of Grantee’s
funding commitments, and (b) that Grantee’s sources and applications of funds for the Project,
including all equity, debt and grant funds, have not materially changed in any way that would
adversely affect Grantee’s ability to perform under this Agreement.
4. Marketing Plan and Resident Selection Plan. A marketing plan and resident
selection plan for the Properties.
5. Pricing of Units. Documentation on the pricing of the Properties, as stated
in the Project Summary.
6. Compliance with Uniform Relocation Act. Evidence of its compliance with
the relocation noticing provisions and a copy of its relocation plan, to the extent applicable, as
required by the Uniform Relocation Act, 42 U.S.C. 61 et seq.
7. Additional Documents. Such other documents as the Housing Commission,
its designees, or its counsel may reasonably request as a condition precedent to disbursement of
any portion of the Grant.
B. Deadline for Submittal of Draw Requests. Grantee shall submit all Draw
Requests within 24 months after the Effective Date of this Agreement; provided, however, that
Grantee may request an extension of such date, which request shall be reviewed by and shall be
subject to approval by the Housing Commission, in its sole discretion. The Parties acknowledge
and agree that the granting of any such extension shall not require an amendment to this
Agreement. Grantee acknowledges and agrees that it will have no right or claim to any portion of
the Grant for which a Draw Request is not timely submitted in accordance with the requirements
of this Section 5.B.
C. Draw Request Amounts. Each of the three draw request may differ in amounts.
Unlike prior years’ Scattered Site grants, the total grant amount does not need to be evenly divided
by the number of committed homes for this 2026 Scattered Site grant. For any of the three
committed 2026 Scattered Site homes, their draw request may exceed $125,000, provided that the
combined three draw requests do not exceed the approved $375,000 amount. For example, if the
first draw request exceeds $125,000 then at least one of the remaining two draw requests must be
less than $125,000, ensuring the Grantee does not surpass the total approved grant amount.
SECTION 6. LEASES AND TRANSFERS OF PROPERTY.
To protect and maintain the goals of Grantee and the Housing Commission, at no time shall
title to any portion of any Property be leased, transferred, or encumbered except in compliance
{00115931.6}
Page 100 of 210
with the requirements set forth in this Section 6. For purposes hereof, “transfer or encumbrance”
includes (a) any sale, lease, sublease, conveyance, assignment, pledge, or mortgage of any portion
of, or interest in, any Property, and (b) any transfer, encumbrance, or pledge of any ownership or
controlling interest in (i) Grantee; (ii) any other entity that owns or occupies any of the Properties
or any part thereof; or (iii) any constituent (e.g. shareholders, partners, or members) of Grantee or
any such owning or occupying entity.
A. Execution and Recordation of Restrictive Covenant. Not later than three
business days after acquiring a Property, and prior to leasing, transferring, or encumbering any
Property, Grantee must execute and record a restrictive covenant against the Property to preserve
the affordability of the Property (“Restrictive Covenant”), in the general form of Exhibit B
attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. In connection therewith:
1. The Restrictive Covenant must contain, without limitation, the following
provisions:
a. The seller of the Property must provide written notice to the Housing
Commission of any transfer of ownership of any portion of the Property, which notice must include
the full contact information of the new owner(s) of the Property;
b. The Property must be maintained, operated, marketed, and used as
affordable housing in strict compliance with the then-applicable marketing plan, resident selection
plan, and pricing documentation submitted by Grantee pursuant to Sections 5.A.4 and 5.A.5 of this
Agreement, except as may be approved by the Housing Commission, by resolution duly adopted,
in its sole and absolute discretion;
c. The Housing Commission may enforce the Restrictive Covenant,
which enforcement may include specific performance, the filing and foreclosure of liens, and
reimbursement of the Grant; and
d. In the event of a change in law that affects the existence or
organization of the Housing Commission, the City of Highland Park may exercise all rights granted
to the Housing Commission pursuant to the Restrictive Covenant.
2. In the event that Grantee has granted any mortgage or other security interest
in any Property prior to recordation of the Restrictive Covenant, the mortgagee or holder of the
security interest must either: (a) release its mortgage or security interest prior to recordation of the
Restrictive Covenant; or (b) agree in writing to subordinate its interest in the Property to the
Housing Commission.
B. Marketing, Resident Selection, and Unit Pricing. All Properties for which a
Draw Request has been submitted by the Grantee and approved by the Housing Commission must
be maintained, operated, marketed, and used in strict compliance with the then-applicable
marketing plan, resident selection plan, and pricing documentation submitted by Grantee pursuant
to Sections 5.A.4 and 5.A.5 of this Agreement, except as may be approved by the Housing
Commission, by resolution duly adopted, in its sole and absolute discretion.
{00115931.6}
Page 101 of 210
C. Transfers and Encumbrances. No portion of any portion of any Property be
leased, transferred, or encumbered without the prior written consent of the Housing Commission
in each instance, unless such transfer or conveyance complies in all respects with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and of the Restrictive Covenant; provided, however, that Grantee
may transfer all or any portion of a Property to a wholly-owned subsidiary, parent corporation, or
affiliate of Grantee upon notice to, but without the need for written consent of, the Housing
Commission.
SECTION 7. REPORTING AND NOTICES.
So long as this Agreement is in effect, Grantee shall:
A. Progress Reports. Deliver to the Housing Commission, on a quarterly basis or on
such other timeline as requested by the Housing Commission, progress reports in form and
substance acceptable to the Housing Commission, setting forth such information as the Housing
Commission shall require, including but not limited to pricing of the Properties, income
qualifications of initial purchasers of the Properties, stages of completion of construction, schedule
updates, reports on the use of funds, evidence of Grantee’s financial status, and performance
relative to the Agreement in a form to be provided by the Housing Commission. To further permit
the verification of such status, Grantee will permit any person designated by the Housing
Commission to visit and inspect the Project, and to review the books and financial records of
Grantee, and Grantee will discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with the Housing Commission
at such reasonable times and as often as may be requested by the Housing Commission.
B. Quarterly Reports to Housing Commission. CPAH shall provide the above
quarterly reports on the following schedule:
May 1, 2026, August 1, 2026 November 1, 2026, January 1, 2027.
C. Notice to Be Provided to Housing Commission. Promptly give written notice to
the Housing Commission as soon as reasonably possible of:
1. Any condition, event or act which constitutes an Event of Default (as
defined in Section 12 of this Agreement) or which, with the giving of
notice or lapse of time, or both, could constitute an Event of Default under
this Agreement;
2. Any pending material litigation or any government order specifically and
materially affecting Grantee or the Project;
3. Any change of name, address, identity, or ownership of Grantee;
4. Any other event or fact which may reasonably be deemed by the Housing
Commission to adversely affect the financial or operating conditions of
either Grantee or the Project; and

other applicable law or regulation.
{00115931.6}
Page 102 of 210
SECTION 8. RECORDKEEPING, MONITORING, EVALUATION AND AUDIT.
A. Retention of Records. Keep such beneficiary and other demographic records and
financial information as the Housing Commission may require. Such records will include
information pertaining to (1) authorizations, obligations, unobligated balances, assets, liabilities,
outlays, and income as applicable, and (2) Project performance and efforts to comply with the
provisions of the Agreement. All such records, and all other records pertinent to the Grant and
work undertaken as part of this Agreement, shall be retained by Grantee for the duration of the
Agreement. Grantee shall furnish the Housing Commission with any periodic reports it may
request pertaining to the activities undertaken under this Agreement, and certify the accuracy of
the information contained in the periodic reports, including any close-out reports, the costs and
obligations incurred in connection with the Project and any other matters covered by this
Agreement. Grantee shall furnish the Housing Commission operating statements, if any, and other
such financial and Project information which it shall require. Failure to submit requested reports
or records within a reasonable time after request may result in termination of this Agreement. If
any claim, litigation, or audit is started before expiration of this Agreement, the records shall be
retained by Grantee until all litigation, claims, or audit findings involving the records or the
Agreement have been fully resolved or terminated.
B. Access to Property. During the Project, Grantee shall grant representatives and
designees of the Housing Commission access to the Properties on a monthly basis, or such other
time as reasonably requested by the Housing Commission, for the purpose of inspecting Grantee’s
progress in completing the Project and for review of Grantee’s and the Project’s books and records,
all at Grantee’s cost and expense.
SECTION 9. OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
A. Recognition of Housing Commission’s Contribution. Give recognition to the
Housing Commission for its contribution to the Project in any advertisements (printed or radio and
television) that promote the Project, and in any literature, programs, leaflets, flyers and other
materials that promote the Project.
B. Compliance with Fair Housing Amendments Act. At all times (i) manage the
Project in compliance with the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988 and any similar State of
Illinois fair housing laws, and (ii) affirmatively market the Project to all eligible beneficiaries in a
non-discriminatory manner.
C. Compliance with Laws. Take all actions necessary to preserve its right to continue
business and operate within the limits set forth in its governing corporate or partnership documents,
and under the applicable laws, regulations and ordinances of the United States of America, and
any state or political subdivision thereof.
SECTION 10. NEGATIVE COVENANTS.
So long as this Agreement remains in effect, Grantee shall not, without the prior written
consent of the Housing Commission:
{00115931.6}
Page 103 of 210
A. No Violation of Laws. Permit any violation or notice of violation of any law,
ordinance or regulation of any governmental authority, during or after construction of the Project,

business from that currently being conducted; or change the nature or scope of the Project.
C. No Religious Service Requirements. Require persons to participate in any
religious service as a condition of receiving shelter or any other housing related assistance.
D. No Conflict of Interest. The Grantee will ensure that it has adequate procedures in
place to enable early identification and effective management of any conflicts of interest which it
or its Staff may have in relation to this Agreement. Upon identification by Grantee of a conflict of
interest, it will notify the Housing Commission of the conflict and of its proposed plan for
management of the conflict.
SECTION 11. TERMINATION OF CERTAIN OF GRANTEE’S OBLIGATIONS.
As of the respective Completion Date for each Property sold by Grantee to a third-party
purchaser, Grantee’s obligation to deliver progress reports to the Housing Commission as set forth
in Section 7.A of this Agreement for such Property shall be on an annual basis (rather than a
quarterly basis), or on such other timeline as the Housing Commission may request.
SECTION 12. EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND ENFORCEMENT.
A. Event of Default. If Grantee defaults in the performance or observance of any
covenant, agreement or obligation under this Agreement, the Restrictive Covenant, or any other
Grant Document, or if the Housing Commission at any time reasonably believes after appropriate
inquiry that completion of the Project is impaired, or has reason to believe after appropriate inquiry
that the Project will not be approved by the appropriate governmental and regulatory authorities,
and if such default or non-performance remains uncured for a period of 60 days after written notice
specifying such default and the actions required to correct the same shall have been given by the
Housing Commission to Grantee or other such person, then such uncured breach or default shall
constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder.
B. Any Action at Law or In Equity. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
under this Agreement, the Housing Commission may take whatever action at law or in equity as it
deems most effectual to enforce the obligations of Grantee under this Agreement and to abate,
prevent or enjoin any violation or attempted violation of the provisions of this Agreement as a
result of such Event of Default or violation or attempted violation of the provisions of this
Agreement; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall the Housing Commission have
the right to recover monetary damages against any of Grantee’s officers, directors, or shareholders
in their personal capacities. Nothing in this Section 12.B shall be deemed or interpreted as
prohibiting the Housing Commission from recovering monetary damages from Grantee or from
any third-party purchaser of any portion of any of the Properties.
{00115931.6}
Page 104 of 210
C. Specific Performance and Appointment of Receiver. In addition to any and all
other available remedies, Grantee hereby consents and agrees that any one or more of the following
remedies shall be available upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder:
1. Specific Performance. Grantee hereby acknowledges and agrees that
specific performance of the covenants and requirements of this Agreement
shall be necessary to achieve the intent hereof; that no appropriate remedy
at law would be available upon an Event of Default hereunder, or if
available, any such remedy would be inadequate to implement the public
purposes hereof; and that the Housing Commission would be irreparably
injured by Grantee’s failure specifically to perform the covenants and
requirements hereof; and, therefore, that the Housing Commission shall
have the right to seek specific performance of any of the covenants and
requirements of this Agreement or an order enjoining any violation of this
Agreement, including voiding any rental or leasing arrangement, any
contract for sale, or any sale or other transfer or conveyance of any of the
Properties in violation of the terms of this Agreement.
2. Appointment of Receiver. Grantee hereby agrees that the appointment of
a receiver for the Project may be necessary to prevent waste to the
Properties following an Event of Default under this Agreement and,
therefore, that the Housing Commission may require the appointment of a
receiver for the Project to ensure the prompt and faithful performance of
the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
D. Reimbursement; Damages. In addition to any and all applicable remedies, the
Housing Commission, in accordance with the ordinance establishing the Fund, may require that
Grantee, in the Housing Commission’s sole discretion, to:
1. Reimburse the Housing Commission up to 100 percent of the Grant, plus
interest thereon at the highest rate allowed by law, allocated by the Housing
Commission to the Property and/or the applicable parcel or part thereof; or
2. In the case of Grantee’s conveyance or other transfer of a Property in
violation of the terms of the Restrictive Covenant, pay damages for the cost
of creating or obtaining other comparable dwelling units to replace the
Property in the event such Property can no longer be affordable housing for
a Qualified Purchaser (as defined in the Restrictive Covenant).
E. Cumulative Remedies. Subject to the limitations hereinabove set forth, no remedy
conferred upon or reserved to the Housing Commission by this Agreement is intended to be
exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or any
related documents, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to
exercise any right or power accruing upon any failure to perform under this Agreement shall impair
any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof.
{00115931.6}
Page 105 of 210
SECTION 13. LIMITATION.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the Restrictive Covenant,
or in the other Grant Documents, the Housing Commission shall not be required hereunder to
disburse or obligate any funds to Grantee other than funds made available to the Housing
Commission by the City.
SECTION 14. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
In order to induce the Housing Commission to enter into this Agreement and to make the
Grant, Grantee makes the following representations and warranties to the Housing Commission,
effective as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, which representations and warranties shall
survive the execution and delivery of the Agreement to the Housing Commission:
A. Organization and Standing of Grantee. Grantee is a 50l(c)(3) nonprofit
corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Illinois; it has the
power to own its own properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted.
B. Ability to Perform. There is no action or proceeding pending or threatened against
Grantee in any court or before any governmental authority, arbitration board, or tribunal which,
individually or in the aggregate, could materially adversely affect its financial condition, properties
or operations, or its ability to perform under this Agreement.
C. Tax Returns and Payments. Grantee has filed all federal, state and local income
tax returns required to be filed, and has paid all taxes shown to be due on said returns, and has
made provision for all liabilities not so paid or accrued under returns not yet due. In addition, to
the extent required, Grantee has complied with and has paid all premiums or other charges due
under applicable workers’ compensation and unemployment compensation laws.
D. Execution and Performance of Agreement Authorized, Valid and Binding.
The execution and delivery of the Agreement, the applicable Restrictive Covenant, and all other
Grant Documents have been or will be fully authorized by Grantee. This Agreement, the applicable
Restrictive Covenant, and the other Grant Documents constitute legal, valid and binding
obligations of Grantee enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.
E. Conflicts with Other Instruments. Grantee is not a party to any contract or
agreement or subject to any restrictions, which materially and adversely affect its business, its
properties or assets, or its financial condition. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Restrictive Covenants, and the other Grant Documents, and Grantee’s performance thereunder,
will not be in conflict with the terms of any other contract or agreement to which Grantee is a party
or by which Grantee or the Project is bound and will not result in a breach of the terms of or
constitute a default under Grantee’s corporate documents.
F. Financial Statements. Grantee has delivered to the Housing Commission
complete and correct financial statements which present fairly and completely the financial
condition of Grantee for the periods covered therein, in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles consistently applied. No material adverse change has occurred in the
financial condition of Grantee as reflected in such statements.
{00115931.6}
Page 106 of 210
G. Project Complies with Laws. To Grantee’s best knowledge, the Project will
comply in all respects with zoning, building and other applicable federal, state, and local
ordinances, laws, rules, and regulations affecting the Project. Compliance with the American
Disabilities Act of 1990, 28 C.F.R. Part 35, will be required, if applicable. Grantee has complied,
and will continue to comply, with all restrictions and requirements of any other funding sources
for the Project.
H. No Governmental Approval Required. The execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the Restrictive Covenants, and the other Grant Documents, and Grantee’s performance
thereunder, do not require any further approval of any government, or any governmental or quasi-
governmental agency, or any filing therewith or notice thereto, and any approvals which are
required have been obtained (except for required City approvals which Grantee shall obtain prior
to commencement of construction of the Project). At the time of each Draw Request, Grantee shall
reaffirm this representation and warranty and shall further represent and warrant that all required
City approvals have been obtained.
I. No Misleading Statements. No information, exhibit or report furnished by
Grantee to the Housing Commission in connection with this Agreement, the applicable Restrictive
Covenant, and the other Grant Documents contains any misstatement of fact or omits to state any
fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading. Grantee has
provided all information requested by the Housing Commission, and such information is complete
and accurate in all material respects. There is no fact known to Grantee which could materially
adversely affect or which might in the future, in Grantee’s reasonable judgment, materially
adversely affect the assets, properties or financial condition of Grantee.
J. No Third-Party Rights. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement shall be
construed to confer upon or to give any person or entity, other than the Parties, any rights or
remedies against the Housing Commission.
SECTION 15. INDEMNIFICATION.
Grantee shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Housing
Commission and the City, and all officers, directors, commissioners, employees, agents,
contractors, consultants, legal counsel and accountants thereof, from and against any and all loss,
cost, damage, expense, claim, liability, or fee, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (“Claims”),
arising out of or asserted as a result of: (i) Grantee’s breach of the terms of this Agreement; (ii) its
use of the Grant funds in violation of the terms of this Agreement; or (iii) Housing Commission
efforts to enforce this Agreement following an Event of Default on the part of Grantee hereunder,
whether the same shall be enforced by suit or otherwise or incurred by the Housing Commission
as a result of such Event of Default. This indemnification obligation shall survive any termination
of this Agreement and shall survive any close-out of the Grant or similar event or circumstance.
SECTION 16. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
A. Amendment, Modification and Waiver. No amendment, modification or
alteration of the terms of this Agreement shall be binding unless the same be in writing, dated
subsequent to the date hereof, and be duly executed by both Parties. No waiver of any condition
precedent to the funding of the Grant shall constitute a waiver of any of the other conditions of the
{00115931.6}
Page 107 of 210
Housing Commission’s obligation to make the Grant. Failure of the Housing Commission to
exercise its rights hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a waiver of any
requirement of this Agreement or a waiver of the Housing Commission’s right to take advantage
of any subsequent or continued breach by Grantee of any covenant contained herein. No delay or
omission on the part of the Housing Commission, or any subsequent holder of the rights under this
Agreement, to exercise any right or power arising from any Event of Default shall impair any such
right or power or be considered to be a waiver of any such default or any acquiescence therein.
B. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Agreement
contained by or on behalf of any of the Parties shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective
successors and assigns; provided, however, the Agreement and any rights hereunder may not be
assigned by Grantee, by operation of law or otherwise, and any purported assignment thereof by
Grantee shall be null and void, unless either: (1) the assignment is made in compliance with the
requirements of this Agreement; or (2) Grantee shall have first obtained the written consent of the
Housing Commission thereto.

be given by the Parties by (i) personal delivery, (ii) deposit in the United States mail, enclosed in

F. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.

effective as of the day and year first above written.

Isis Fernandez Sykes, Chair
Highland Park Housing Commission
1150 Half Day Road
Highland Park, IL 60035
Dear Chair Sykes,
The City of Highland Park initiated Community Partners for Affordable Housing (then
known as the Highland Park Illinois Community Land Trust) in 2003 as a 501(c)(3)
nonprofit organization to develop and preserve permanently affordable housing for low-
and moderate-income households. In its early years, approximately 90% of CPAH’s
funding originated from the Highland Park Housing Trust Fund. As the organization grew,
it diversified its funding base, leveraged more non-Highland Park resources, and began
collaborating with other communities in the region to share infrastructure costs, create
economies of scale and operate as a more effective, efficient and sustainable
organization that can offer even more services to Highland Park residents. Today,
CPAH’s annual operating request to the Highland Park Housing Trust Fund represents
less than 5% of CPAH’s overall operating budget yet it leverages hundreds of thousands
of dollars every year for Highland Park’s affordable housing infrastructure.
This letter serves as our formal request for 2026 operating support in the amount of
$111,000. This request was approved in 2025 for 2026 budgeting purposes but this is the
formal grant request for approval. Funds would continue to be disbursed on a quarterly
basis along with quarterly progress reports. Operating funds help support CPAH activities
in Highland Park including finding and acquiring properties, grant writing to leverage
Housing Trust Fund dollars, property and construction management, managing sales and
re-sales, pre- and post-purchase services, ground lease management and compliance,
marketing, eligibility screening, income verification, annual tenant recertification, financial
management, corporate administration, reporting, waitlist management, and assisting in
administering the City’s inclusionary housing program.
CPAH’s partnership with the City of Highland Park has developed 77 permanently
affordable Community Land Trust (CLT) homes scattered throughout Highland Park.
CPAH uses the CLT model to ensure that each home remains affordable in perpetuity.
The initial subsidies that are used to make homes affordable are reused in every re-sale,
creating a permanent infrastructure of affordable housing in Highland Park with a one-
time investment. In addition to our development work, CPAH has become the “go to”
resource for Highland Park residents in need of any type of housing assistance including
housing counseling, financial literacy, down payment assistance, home repairs,
accessibility improvements, rental assistance, foreclosure prevention, and more.

This Grant Agreement (the “Agreement”) is dated as of the 4th of March 2026, by and between the
Highland Park Housing Commission (the “Commission”) and Community Partners for
Affordable Housing (“CPAH”).
IN CONSIDERATION OF the recitals and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in the
Agreement, and pursuant to the Commission’s powers, the parties agree as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
A. On May 28, 2002, the City Council of Highland Park adopted Ordinance No. 34-02 establishing
the Affordable Housing Trust Fund (HTF) to be administered by the City’s Housing Commission
with the assistance of the Housing Trust Fund Advisory Committee. Pursuant to said ordinance,
the Commission makes the final decision to approve or deny all applications for funding by the
HTF.
B. The purpose of the HTF is to provide financial resources to address the affordable housing needs of
low- and moderate-income individuals and families who live or work in Highland Park, including,
among other things, by providing support for not-for-profit organizations that actively address the
affordable housing needs of such individuals and families and, in particular, by giving priority to
eligible applications from the Highland Park Illinois Community Land Trust (now CPAH).
C. By Resolution No. R33-3, adopted on March 10, 2003, the City Council endorsed the formation
and directed the incorporation of the Highland Park Illinois Community Land Trust.
D. The Highland Park Illinois Community Land Trust was established as an independent, not-for-
profit corporation on March 17, 2003, as an outgrowth of the Affordable Housing Needs and
Implementation Plan element of the City’s Master Plan to address the affordable housing needs of
low- and moderate-income individuals and families who live or work in Highland Park. The
Highland Park Illinois Community Land Trust changed its name to Community Partners for
Affordable Housing (CPAH) in July of 2010. In January 2019, CPAH merged with Lake County
Residential Development Corporation and Affordable Housing Corporation of Lake County but
retains the CPAH name.
E. CPAH submitted a request for operating funds to the HTF dated {January 28, 2026} a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.
F. At its meeting on March 4, 2026, the Commission approved CPAH’s request for operating funds.

If the Corporation does not approve the sale of the Unit to Buyer, if required, within (14) days after
Date of Acceptance, this Contract shall be null and void. At least Five (5) Business Days prior to
Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer the Waiver of Right of First Refusal as contemplated by the
Seller’s Bylaws.
8. DISCLOSURES and CORPORATION DOCUMENTS.
(a) If applicable, prior to signing this Contract, Buyer [check one] ❑ has ❑ has not received a
completed Illinois Residential Real Property Disclosure Report; [check one] ❑ has ❑ has not
received the EPA Pamphlet, “Protect Your Family From Lead in Your Home”; [check one] ❑ has
❑ has not received a Lead-Based Paint Disclosure; [check one] ❑ has ❑ has not received the
IEMA Pamphlet “Radon Testing Guidelines for Real Estate Transactions”; [check one] ❑ has ❑

(b) Seller shall provide to Buyer within ten (10) business days of the Date of Acceptance copies of
the following documents, if available: a statement of budget and reserves, Articles of Organization
(including any amendments thereto), rules and regulations, Bylaws, the most recent Board meeting
minutes and the Proprietary Lease (“Governing Documents”). In the event that the Governing
Documents disclose that the terms and conditions contained within the documents would
unreasonably restrict Buyer’s use of the Apartment or would increase the financing considerations
which Buyer would have to extend in connection with owning the Unit, then Buyer may declare
this Contract null and void by giving Seller written notice within five (5) Business Days after
Page 150 of 210
receipt of the Governing Documents, listing those deficiencies which are unacceptable to Buyer,
and thereupon all Earnest Money deposited, including any interest earned thereon, shall be returned
to Buyer. If written notice is not served within the time specified, Buyer shall be deemed to have
waived this contingency, and this Contract shall remain in full force and effect.
9. FLOOD INSURANCE. Seller represents that neither the Building or Apartment is located
in a special flood hazard area.
10. CONSTRUCTION. (a) If, as of the Date of Acceptance, construction of the Apartment is
not yet completed, and subject to subparagraph (b) below, Seller agrees to construct the Apartment
substantially in accordance with the Plans which are on file in Seller’s office. Buyer’s execution
of this Contract shall be conclusive evidence that Buyer has examined and approved the Plans.
(b) It is understood and agreed that the Apartment is not being custom-built for Buyer, but as
a unit of a residential building project being constructed. Therefore, Seller expressly reserves the
right to cause Seller’s contractor to (i) change or deviate from the Plans, including changes,
reversals and other adjustments in the floor plan and room dimensions; (ii) substitute materials,
components or labor; and (iii) make such changes in construction as may be required by material
shortages, pandemics, strikes, stoppages, labor difficulties or such emergency situation, as may, in
Seller’s contractor’s sole judgment, require the same. Any modifications or substitutions made
shall be of at least equal utility and substantially similar quality to those originally specified.
(c) Issuance of a temporary or final certificate of occupancy by the City of Highland Park,
whether for the Apartment or the floor on which the Apartment is located, shall constitute a final
determination of substantial completion of the Apartment in compliance with the Plans.
(d) If, as of the Date of Acceptance, construction of the Apartment is not yet substantially
complete as defined in (c) above, when notified by Seller that the Unit is substantially completed,
Buyer shall have the right to inspect the Apartment with an authorized representative of Seller for
the purpose of agreeing on a punch list of items not yet completed, which items Seller shall attempt
to complete within thirty (30) days after Closing (subject to delays caused by material or labor
shortages, pandemics, inclement weather, or other circumstances beyond Seller’s control or
Buyer’s lack of cooperation in providing access to the Apartment or otherwise). Buyer’s refusal to
close under this Contract because of (i) Buyer’s failure to make such inspection prior to Closing,
or (ii) Seller’s failure to complete, prior to the Closing Date, all items on the punch list or any
portion of the exterior work (e.g., landscaping, walks and driveways) not required for the
reasonable use of and access to the Apartment, shall constitute a default by Buyer hereunder. No
portion of the Purchase Price shall be withheld or escrowed by reason of any work which may be
required to be performed by Seller after the Closing, provided that Seller’s obligations to complete
the Apartment shall survive the Closing. Buyer shall grant Seller and its agents access to the
Apartment at reasonable times during business hours as requested by Seller either in writing or
orally after the Closing to complete any construction or to correct or finish punch list items. Prior
to Closing, and thereafter until the Apartment is substantially complete, Seller shall have sole
control and exclusive possession of the Apartment.
Page 151 of 210
(e) Seller shall use commercially-reasonable efforts to complete the construction of the
Apartment in a timely fashion after the Acceptance Date, with an anticipated substantial
completion date in Spring, 2026. Seller shall not be liable for any claims related to the timeliness
of completion of the renovation of the Apartment in the event of economic scarcity of labor or
materials, strikes, lockouts, inclement weather, acts of God, theft, vandalism, fire or other casualty,
unanticipated utility relocation or delays in the installation of new utility service, laws, regulations
or governmental policies or acts, or any other interruption or delay beyond the reasonable control
of Seller or without fault on the part of Seller.
(f) If, as of the Date of Acceptance, the Apartment is substantially complete, the Buyer shall
have five (5) Business Days to conduct, at Buyer’s expense, a home inspection or any other
inspections desired by Buyer in the exercise of reasonable due diligence. Seller agrees to the
Apartment accessible for inspection(s) upon reasonable notice and to have all utilities turned on
during the inspection(s). Buyer shall indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless from and against
any loss or damage caused by any acts of Buyer or any person performing any inspection on behalf
of Buyer.
In the event the inspection reveals that the condition of the Apartment is unacceptable to Buyer
and Buyer serves Notice to Seller within five (5) Business Days after Date of Acceptance, this
Contract shall be null and void. Said Notice shall not include any portion of the inspection report(s)
unless requested by Seller. Failure of Buyer to conduct said inspection(s) and notify Seller
within the time specified operates as a waiver of Buyer’s rights to terminate this Contract
and this Contract shall remain in full force and effect.
11. CLOSING: If the Buyer has heretofore executed a Deposit Agreement with the Seller or
Seller’s agent prior to the date of this Contract, this transaction shall be closed on the date and at
the time designated by Seller in a written notice to the Buyer (the “Closing Notice”), but in no
event shall this transaction be closed later than June 30, 2025, whether or not the Apartment has
been substantially completed by the date of Closing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Buyer executed a Deposit Agreement on or after April 1,
2025, this transaction shall be closed within (60) days of the Acceptance Date.
A Closing Escrow shall be created with the title insurer and Buyer shall deposit the amounts
specified in Paragraph 2 on the date specified in the Closing Notice. The Closing shall be held at
the office of the title insurer or otherwise as the parties may agree.
At Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer the following: (a) a duplicate original of the Proprietary
Lease and, if applicable, an assignment of the Proprietary Lease in a form reasonably acceptable
to the Board, (b) the Stock, endorsed with Buyer’s name, and (c) a Bill of Sale as provided for in
Paragraph 3,all of the foregoing being free of any encumbrances, liens or security interest except
the security interest, if any, in the Building claimed by the holder of a mortgage prior in right to
the Proprietary Lease. Any encumbrances, liens or security interest on Seller’s interest in the Unit,
other than Seller’s mortgage(s), shall be paid at Closing out of sale proceeds or otherwise released
Page 152 of 210
and Seller shall cause the parties entitled to such payments to furnish appropriate payoffs, releases,
waivers or other similar documents at Closing.
The Seller, at the Buyers Expense, shall provide at Closing an owner’s leasehold policy in the
amount of the Purchase Price. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller
shall deliver to Buyer or his agent evidence of merchantable title in the Buyer by delivering a
Commitment for Title Insurance of a title insurance company bearing a date on or subsequent to
the Acceptance Date, in the amount of the Purchase Price, subject to no other exceptions than those
listed within this Contract, and specifically including Seller’s mortgage(s), and to general
exceptions contained in the commitment. Every Commitment for Title Insurance furnished by
Seller shall be conclusive evidence of title as shown. If evidence of title discloses other exceptions,
Seller shall have 30 days after Seller's receipt of evidence of title to cure the exceptions and notify
Buyer accordingly. As to those exceptions that may be removed at Closing by payment of money,
Seller may have those exceptions removed at Closing by using the proceeds of the sale.
12. CONDITION OF APARTMENT AT POSSESSION. Seller agrees to provide the

personal property that is not to be conveyed to Buyer shall be removed from the Apartment at
Seller’s expense prior to delivery of Possession.

Building to Buyer.

which exists on the Acceptance Date from the City of Highland Park or other governmental
authority. Seller further warrants that there is no known litigation involving the developer or
management of the Corporation or its Board of Directors, except as previously disclosed to Buyer
or as disclosed herein.
15. COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY.
Seller shall comply with the terms of any City of Highland Park ordinance relating to the
transaction contemplated herein and shall provide to Buyer at Closing evidence of compliance with
such ordinances, if so required.
16. DAMAGE TO APARTMENT OR CONDEMNATION PRIOR TO CLOSING.
If, prior to Closing, the Building or Apartment shall be destroyed or materially damaged by fire or
other casualty, this Contract may, at the option of Seller, be deemed no longer effective and any
earnest money deposited in connection with this Contract shall be refunded to Buyer. If Seller
chooses to terminate this Contract, Seller must give notice to Buyer within thirty (30) days after
the destruction or damage. If Seller chooses not to terminate this Contract, then Buyer shall not be
relieved of its duties and obligations under this Contract, unless the damage to the Apartment or
the Building is not restored or repaired to the original condition within six (6) months after the date
of the fire or other casualty. In this event, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Contract by
Page 153 of 210
notice to Seller within ten (10) days after the expiration of the six (6) month period. For purposes
of this Paragraph, material damage is damage requiring more than $20,000 to repair. The

Threshold Eligibility Criteria Income
Maximum household income must not exceed 100% of the Chicago area median income (AMI),

whichever is greater, as earnest money that will be applied to the purchase of the home.

2. Low-Income
Households with incomes that do not exceed 30% of the Chicago AMI will receive a low-income
priority.

Page 160 of 210

currently employed or has a bona fide offer to work in the community. For purposes of this
policy, a person must work in community at least 20 hours per week to be considered to work in
the community. For purposes of this policy, an applicant will be considered a resident of the
community if they rented in the community within five years of submitting their application and
were involuntarily displaced as a result of fire, disaster, government action, or action by a private
owner that the tenant could not control or prevent.
Occupancy Guidelines
To ensure that units are not underutilized, household size will be matched to the following unit
sizes whenever possible:
Unit Size Minimum Household Size

Memorandum
Date: March 4, 2026
To: Housing Commission
From: Zubin Coleman, Senior Planner
Subject: Ravinia Housing Association Entity Account
Background
The Ravinia Housing Association (RHA) has a savings Money Market Account (MMA) that
does not accrue a large amount of interest. Staff recommend that the Housing Commission
*(HC) review the information below and direct Staff to act as
Prior Consideration - Peers & Ravinia Housing Association Accounts
At the January 7, 2026 Housing Commission meeting, Staff provided the Commission with
an overview of the Peers & Ravinia Housing Association fund accounts and requested
direction on how to transfer the below accounts into new higher interest-yielding accounts.
The main goal from the December meeting was to close the Peers CD (acct 6619) that was set
to mature on January 7, 2026.
Housing Assoc. Account Type Account # Balance Interest
Ravinia Savings MMA 1291 $176,140.00 0.15%
At the January meeting, HC made the following two motions for approval:
1. Motion to close Peers CD #6619 upon maturity (January 7, 2026) and invest the
proceeds in a new 6-month MaxSafe CD with an Annual Percentage Yield (APY) of
approximately 3.15%.
2. Motion to recommend Ravinia Housing Association (RHA) Account #1291 be moved
into a Bank MM that is FDIC insured (up to $250K) currently with an interest rate of
2.20%, and a $10,000 investment minimum.
The immediate action needed was to close Peers CD #6619 since the account matured on the
date of the meeting and required action within the 10-day grace period. Regarding Ravinia’s
MMA #1291, Staff would later follow-up with Tom Groth, Vice President / Branch manager
at Highland Park Bank & Trust.
When Staff followed up with Mr. Groth in early February to act on HC’s direction for Ravinia
MMA #1291, all options were discussed beyond moving the existing MMA into a new MMA
with 2.20% interest rate. After discussion with Mr. Groth and another review of Evergreen
Real Estate Services (ERES)’s five-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for Ravinia, Staff
and the Bank decided that the following path was the best route forward:
1
Page 205 of 210
Memorandum
1. Close the existing Ravinia MMA 1291.
2. Move $1,000 into a new checking account for Ravinia, exclusively for the purposes of
writing its annual checks for required State filings and tax purposes.
3. Move the remaining $175,140 to a 23-month Certificate of Deposit (CD) account
accruing a 3.25% interest rate.
CIP Analysis for Ravinia Funds
ERES’ Ravinia five-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) (see Attachment 1) does not
expect any large repairs until 2029. The Ravinia CIP expenses from 2026 to 2028 will average
$13,200 for HVAC, water heaters, appliances and unit flooring. ERES is projecting a $70,500
roofing repair in 2029, which would require cash call without offsetting contributions from
their Operating account.
Due to a spike in ERES’ projected capital expenditures in 2029, from $13,200 to $89,700,
HC can utilize a Certificate of Deposit rather than a MMA to accrue better interest until the
finds are needed to act on. While MMA’s value liquidity and short-term investments, CDs are
often FIDC insured and take advantage of higher fixed interest rates for longer-term savings.
If ERES projected a large expenditure or CIP expense within the next 23 months, then Staff
would advise against transferring the Ravinia funds into a 23-month CD and would stick with
the January-approved MMA route. However, there is no projected need for the Ravinia funds
to be withdrawn within the next 23 months, thus taking advantage of a higher interest rate
(3.25%) than what would have been offered for a new MMA (2.2%).
Early Withdrawal Penalty Fee
One thing to note is that CD’s typically have an early withdrawal penalty fee as a mechanism
in place for the banks to discourage repeat withdrawals for an account with static higher
interest rates. Highland Park Bank & Trust’s early withdrawal penalty fee for CD’s between
12 and 36 months is defined as, “a fee imposed equaling twelve (12) months interest on the
amount withdrawn subject to penalty”. An early withdrawal penalty fee of 12 months
interest would negate over half of the entire interest accrued over the lifespan of the 23-
month CD.
However, Mr. Groth informed Staff that the bank can waive these early withdrawal penalty
fees for emergency cases. The bank is aware that early withdrawals may be necessary in
certain instances, especially when regarding property and housing needs. If there are sudden
Ravinia repairs deemed necessary that cannot be paid from ERES’ Operating account, then
the City can request that the bank waive its early withdrawal penalty fee. The bank would
need to review the expenditures and understand the situational context before deciding on
any fee waiver.
2
Page 206 of 210
Memorandum
Checking Account
Staff currently uses Ravinia’s MMA #1291 as a savings account with checking account
capabilities. Every year, the Ravinia Housing Association is required by the Illinois Attorney
General’s Office to file an Annual Report filing fee ($10) and an Illinois Charitable
Organization Annual Report filing fee ($15). At least $25 worth of checks are paid annually
to the State. By moving $1,000 of the Ravinia MMA into a checking account, it would provide
more than enough money for its annual standard allocation of disbursement funds. Also, the
account number wouldn’t change, thus not requiring a new checkbook.
Next Steps
The HC authorized Staff Liaison Zubin Coleman and Community Development Deputy
Director Charmain Later to work with Mr. Groth on a reinvestment strategy that provides for
higher interest rates, liquidity as necessary and appropriate FDIC insurance coverage for the
PHA and RHA accounts at the January HC meeting. However, no motion specifying
transferring Ravinia’s MMA into a CD was approved by the commission.
Thus, Staff now recommends that the HC make a motion to close the Ravinia Money Market
Account, transfer $1,000 into a new checking account and transfer the remaining money into
a new 23-month Certificate of Deposit account accruing 3.25% interest.

Memorandum
Date: March 4, 2026
To: Chair Fernandez-Sykes and Housing Commissioners
From: Zubin Coleman, Senior Planner
Subject: Sunset Woods Housing Association – Mortgage Refinance
Sunset Woods Association (SWA) Mortgage Background
The Sunset Woods Association (SWA) currently has a loan with the First Bank of Highland
Park (also known as First Bank Chicago) for 12 of the 14 rental units owned by the City
within the Sunset Woods Condominiums at 891 Central Avenue. The remaining two units
are not covered by this mortgage loan, as they were purchased separately by the City in
2008 & 2009 with proceeds from a loan for the Peers building.
The loan, created in 2012, matures in five-year cycles. Each time the loan has neared its
five-year maturation date, the Commission’s approved a five-year refinance extension for
the loan to remain with First Bank Highland Park (FBHP). FBHP also benefits from holding
this loan by qualifying for and receiving Community Investment Tax Credits 1. The loan,
which received Housing Commission-approved extensions in 2017 and 2022, is up for
another five-year extension in April 2027.
The current loan terms are as follows:
Note Number 3180
Note Issue Date 7/26/2012
Maturity Date 4/26/2027
Interest Rate 5.25%
Balance $321,556.60
Mark Zisook, Senior Vice President at FBHP, informed Staff that the renewal process for
the loan cannot begin until the loan maturity date is less than one year out (4/27/2027).
Any of the below three options for the mortgage loan must be exercised by the Commission.
Commission Direction for Loan Refinance Options
1. The Commission can request another five-year extension with FBHP and direct Staff
to meet with FBHP any time after April 26, 2026 to lock in an extension with the
current loan terms, if possible.
1 The Community Investment Tax Credit (CITC) program is a State of Illinois tax credit program designed
to enable local residents and stakeholders to invest in local community development corporations (CDCs)
to improve economic opportunities for low and moderate-income households. SWA is considered a CDC.
1
Page 209 of 210
Memorandum
2. The Commission can request that Staff discuss another five-year extension with
FBHP but obtaining an extension with different loan terms, any time after April 26,
2027.
3. The Commission can direct Staff to go out and issue a Request for Bids (RFB) to find
a new banker for the remainder of the loan, with the goal of obtaining better loan
terms. It will take Staff time to curate the RFB and obtain bids, so this process would
need to start immediately.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Commission consider the three loan options listed and direct
Staff to act on one of the three options.
