Ordinance Approving a Development Agreement by and Between the Village of Lake Zurich, Lake County, Illinois and Zen Properties, LLC ORD. #2023'06-518 Village of Lake Zurich Board of Trustees Regular Meeting. Monday June 19th, 2023. 3 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. Zen Properties, LLC, doing business as CM Industries at 505 Oakwood, has the need for more production and office space to facilitate its growing operations and is requesting TIF assistance related to the construction of a new facility at 865 Telser Road. The company has chosen this location to construct an approximately 43,000 square-foot building to house its production of robotic welding torches, welding guns, smoke extractors, and nozzle cleaning stations that serve the energy, transportation, construction, and waste treatment industries. This new industrial production facility will cost approximately $6. 1 million to develop, including TIF-eligible expenses such as site work prep, engineering and architecture fees, and electric/gas utility connections. A future Telser Road facility for CM Industries would create new jobs, but more importantly will retain this business in the Lake Zurich industrial park as the Village competes with other municipalities for economic development projects. The proposed TIF development agreement will help offset this significant $6.1 million investment into the community with a rebate of $652,000 of future property taxes over approximately 10 years through the Tax Increment Finance District #4 (industrial TIF), which equates to approximately 10.7% of the overall costs of this company expansion project. Asst. to the Village Manager Kyle Kordell gave background information on Zen Properties and their request. Mr. Kordell mentioned that the vacancy rate in the Industrial Area is less than 4%. Recommended Action: A motion was made by Trustee Weider, seconded by Trustee Euker, to approve Ordinance #2023-06-518 Approving a Development Agreement by and between the Village of Lake Zurich, Lake County, Illinois and Zen Properties, LLC. AYES: 4 Trustees Euker, Riley, Sugrue, Weider. NAYSI 0 ABSENT: 2 Trustees Bobrowski, Spacone. MOTION CARRIED. 8.
