Ordinance Approving a Tax Increment Finance Development Agreement Between the Village of Lake Zurich and JGS Lake Zurich West, LLC (Assign Ord. #2023-04-512) (Trustee Sprawka) Summary: The Lake Zurich Industrial TIF District was created in January 2023 by the Village Board, after the review and unanimous approval of the Joint Review Board, for the purpose of providing a long-term funding mechanism for infrastructure improvements within the industrial park and supporting business expansion and modernization efforts. JGS Lake Zurich West, LLC is requesting TIF assistance related to the implementation of a new manufacturing line at 550 Enterprise Parkway. The company is considering this location for manufacturing equipment upgrades which would increase the overall investment in the community and create 8 – 10 full-time positions. JGS Lake Zurich West, LLC is a component of Geremarie, a company that has been operating in the Lake Zurich industrial park at 1275 Ensell Road manufacturing aluminum components for over 20 years. Since its initial decision over two decades ago to be in Lake Zurich, Geremarie has built several additions to the building as it has seen increased demand for its product. 4 JGS Lake Zurich Wests’ total project costs for the new development at 550 Enterprise Parkway is no less than $8.5 million, including the cost of the land, site work, engineering and construction, permit fees, the installation of manufacturing line equipment, and electric/gas utility connections. The proposed TIF redevelopment proposal will help offset this significant investment cost with a rebate of $626,000 of future property taxes over several years through the Tax Increment Finance District #4 (Industrial TIF), which equates to approximately 7.4% of the overall costs of this manufacturing company expansion project. Recommended Action: A motion to approve Ordinance #2023-04-512 Approving a Tax Increment Finance Redevelopment Agreement by and Between the Village of Lake Zurich, Lake County, Illinois and JGS Lake Zurich West, LLC. B. Agreement with Teska Associates for Comprehensive Plan Update in the Amount Not-to-Exceed $119,555 (Trustee Bobrowski) Summary: A municipal comprehensive plan is used to identify recent and forthcoming land use patterns and economic development trends to chart a path forward for continued smart growth over the next 10-20 years. Lake Zurich’s comprehensive plan was last updated in 2003 and needs updated so that Lake Zurich can maximize its reputation as being a safe community where families want to raise children and businesses want to operate. A request-for-proposals was launched in January 2023, resulting in two proposals to consider. Both proposals include a process of community assessment, engagement, analysis, visioning, goals, community branding, and plan preparation. However, one proposal is $33,000 less expensive than the other and therefore Staff is recommending Teska Associates as the selected consultant to lead this process. The FY 2023 budget currently includes $50,000 in the General Fund for an update to the Comprehensive Plan. The Teska proposal is $119,555, necessitating additional funding of approximately $70,000 in the FY 2023 budget. Staff will include the additional $70,000 in a future budget amendment ordinance for Board consideration. Recommended Action: A motion to approve an agreement with Teska Associates for Comprehensive Plan update in the Amount Not-to-Exceed $119,555 and to direct Staff to include the additional $70,000 needed in a future budget amendment. 8.
