HB5017- 2 -LRB101 19438 AWJ 68910 b

1redevelopment plans and redevelopment projects that were
2approved and redevelopment projects that were designated
3before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 91st
4General Assembly.
5    Prior to the adoption of an ordinance proposing the
6designation of a redevelopment project area, or approving a
7redevelopment plan or redevelopment project, the municipality
8by its corporate authorities, or as it may determine by any
9commission designated under subsection (k) of Section

11and place for public hearing. At least 10 days prior to the
12adoption of the ordinance or resolution establishing the time
13and place for the public hearing, the municipality shall make
14available for public inspection a redevelopment plan or a
15separate report that provides in reasonable detail the basis
16for the eligibility of the redevelopment project area. The
17report along with the name of a person to contact for further
18information shall be sent within a reasonable time after the

8addresses that, after a good faith effort, the municipality
9determines are located outside the proposed redevelopment
10project area and within 750 feet of the boundaries of the
11proposed redevelopment project area. This requirement is
12subject to the limitation that in a municipality with a
13population of over 100,000, if the total number of residential
14addresses outside the proposed redevelopment project area and
15within 750 feet of the boundaries of the proposed redevelopment
16project area exceeds 750, the municipality shall be required to
17provide the notice to only the 750 residential addresses that,
18after a good faith effort, the municipality determines are
19outside the proposed redevelopment project area and closest to
20the boundaries of the proposed redevelopment project area.
21Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice given after August 7,
222001 (the effective date of Public Act 92-263) and before the
23effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General
24Assembly to residential addresses within 750 feet of the

2proposed redevelopment project area. The notice shall also be
3provided by the municipality, regardless of its population, to
4those organizations and residents that have registered with the
5municipality for that information in accordance with the
6registration guidelines established by the municipality under
7Section 11-74.4-4.2.
8    At the public hearing any interested person or affected
9taxing district may file with the municipal clerk written
10objections to and may be heard orally in respect to any issues
11embodied in the notice. The municipality shall hear all
12protests and objections at the hearing and the hearing may be
13adjourned to another date without further notice other than a
14motion to be entered upon the minutes fixing the time and place
15of the subsequent hearing. At the public hearing or at any time
16prior to the adoption by the municipality of an ordinance
17approving a redevelopment plan, the municipality may make
18changes in the redevelopment plan. Changes which (1) add
19additional parcels of property to the proposed redevelopment
20project area, (2) substantially affect the general land uses
21proposed in the redevelopment plan, (3) substantially change
22the nature of or extend the life of the redevelopment project,
23or (4) increase the number of inhabited residential units to be
24displaced from the redevelopment project area, as measured from
25the time of creation of the redevelopment project area, to a
26total of more than 10, shall be made only after the

 

 

HB5017- 5 -LRB101 19438 AWJ 68910 b

1municipality gives notice, convenes a joint review board, and
2conducts a public hearing pursuant to the procedures set forth
3in this Section and in Section 11-74.4-6 of this Act. Changes
4which do not (1) add additional parcels of property to the
5proposed redevelopment project area, (2) substantially affect
6the general land uses proposed in the redevelopment plan, (3)
7substantially change the nature of or extend the life of the
8redevelopment project, or (4) increase the number of inhabited
9residential units to be displaced from the redevelopment
10project area, as measured from the time of creation of the
11redevelopment project area, to a total of more than 10, may be
12made without further hearing, provided that the municipality
13shall give notice of any such changes by mail to each affected
14taxing district and registrant on the interested parties
15registry, provided for under Section 11-74.4-4.2, and by
16publication in a newspaper of general circulation within the
17affected taxing district. Such notice by mail and by
18publication shall each occur not later than 10 days following
19the adoption by ordinance of such changes. Hearings with regard
20to a redevelopment project area, project or plan may be held
21simultaneously.
22    (b) Prior to holding a public hearing to approve or amend a
23redevelopment plan or to designate or add additional parcels of
24property to a redevelopment project area, the municipality
25shall convene a joint review board. The board shall consist of
26a representative selected by each community college district,

 

 

HB5017- 6 -LRB101 19438 AWJ 68910 b

1local elementary school district and high school district or
2each local community unit school district, park district,
3library district, township, fire protection district, and
4county that will have the authority to directly levy taxes on
5the property within the proposed redevelopment project area at
6the time that the proposed redevelopment project area is
7approved, a representative selected by the municipality and a
8public member. The public member shall first be selected and
9then the board's chairperson shall be selected by a majority of
10the board members present and voting.
11    For redevelopment project areas with redevelopment plans
12or proposed redevelopment plans that would result in the
13displacement of residents from 10 or more inhabited residential
14units or that include 75 or more inhabited residential units,
15the public member shall be a person who resides in the
16redevelopment project area. If, as determined by the housing
17impact study provided for in paragraph (5) of subsection (n) of
18Section 11-74.4-3, or if no housing impact study is required
19then based on other reasonable data, the majority of
20residential units are occupied by very low, low, or moderate
21income households, as defined in Section 3 of the Illinois
22Affordable Housing Act, the public member shall be a person who
23resides in very low, low, or moderate income housing within the
24redevelopment project area. Municipalities with fewer than
2515,000 residents shall not be required to select a person who
26lives in very low, low, or moderate income housing within the

 

 

HB5017- 7 -LRB101 19438 AWJ 68910 b

1redevelopment project area, provided that the redevelopment
2plan or project will not result in displacement of residents
3from 10 or more inhabited units, and the municipality so
4certifies in the plan. If no person satisfying these
5requirements is available or if no qualified person will serve
6as the public member, then the joint review board is relieved
7of this paragraph's selection requirements for the public
8member.
9    Within 90 days of the effective date of this amendatory Act
10of the 91st General Assembly, each municipality that designated
11a redevelopment project area for which it was not required to
12convene a joint review board under this Section shall convene a
13joint review board to perform the duties specified under
14paragraph (e) of this Section.
15    All board members shall be appointed and the first board
16meeting shall be held at least 14 days but not more than 28
17days after the mailing of notice by the municipality to the
18taxing districts as required by Section 11-74.4-6(c).
19Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a municipality that
20adopted either a public hearing resolution or a feasibility
21resolution between July 1, 1999 and July 1, 2000 that called
22for the meeting of the joint review board within 14 days of
23notice of public hearing to affected taxing districts is deemed
24to be in compliance with the notice, meeting, and public
25hearing provisions of the Act. Such notice shall also advise
26the taxing bodies represented on the joint review board of the

 

 

HB5017- 8 -LRB101 19438 AWJ 68910 b

1time and place of the first meeting of the board. Additional
2meetings of the board shall be held upon the call of any
3member. The municipality seeking designation of the
4redevelopment project area shall provide administrative
5support to the board.
6    The board shall review (i) the public record, planning
7documents and proposed ordinances approving the redevelopment
8plan and project and (ii) proposed amendments to the
9redevelopment plan or additions of parcels of property to the
10redevelopment project area to be adopted by the municipality.
11As part of its deliberations, the board may hold additional
12hearings on the proposal. A board's recommendation shall be an
13advisory, non-binding recommendation. The recommendation shall
14be adopted by a majority of those members present and voting.
15The recommendations shall be submitted to the municipality
16within 30 days after convening of the board. Failure of the
17board to submit its report on a timely basis shall not be cause
18to delay the public hearing or any other step in the process of
19designating or amending the redevelopment project area but
20shall be deemed to constitute approval by the joint review
21board of the matters before it.
22    The board shall base its recommendation to approve or
23disapprove the redevelopment plan and the designation of the
24redevelopment project area or the amendment of the
25redevelopment plan or addition of parcels of property to the
26redevelopment project area on the basis of the redevelopment

 

 

HB5017- 9 -LRB101 19438 AWJ 68910 b

1project area and redevelopment plan satisfying the plan
2requirements, the eligibility criteria defined in Section
311-74.4-3, and the objectives of this Act.
4    The board shall issue a written report describing why the
5redevelopment plan and project area or the amendment thereof
6meets or fails to meet one or more of the objectives of this
7Act and both the plan requirements and the eligibility criteria
8defined in Section 11-74.4-3. In the event the Board does not
9file a report it shall be presumed that these taxing bodies
10find the redevelopment project area and redevelopment plan
11satisfy the objectives of this Act and the plan requirements
12and eligibility criteria.
13    If the board recommends rejection of the matters before it,
14the municipality will have 30 days within which to resubmit the
15plan or amendment. During this period, the municipality will
16meet and confer with the board and attempt to resolve those
17issues set forth in the board's written report that led to the
18rejection of the plan or amendment.
19    Notwithstanding the resubmission set forth above, the
20municipality may commence the scheduled public hearing and
21either adjourn the public hearing or continue the public
22hearing until a date certain. Prior to continuing any public
23hearing to a date certain, the municipality shall announce
24during the public hearing the time, date, and location for the
25reconvening of the public hearing. Any changes to the
26redevelopment plan necessary to satisfy the issues set forth in

 

 

HB5017- 10 -LRB101 19438 AWJ 68910 b

1the joint review board report shall be the subject of a public
2hearing before the hearing is adjourned if the changes would
3(1) substantially affect the general land uses proposed in the
4redevelopment plan, (2) substantially change the nature of or
5extend the life of the redevelopment project, or (3) increase
6the number of inhabited residential units to be displaced from
7the redevelopment project area, as measured from the time of
8creation of the redevelopment project area, to a total of more
9than 10. Changes to the redevelopment plan necessary to satisfy
10the issues set forth in the joint review board report shall not
11require any further notice or convening of a joint review board
12meeting, except that any changes to the redevelopment plan that
13would add additional parcels of property to the proposed
14redevelopment project area shall be subject to the notice,
15public hearing, and joint review board meeting requirements
16established for such changes by subsection (a) of Section
1711-74.4-5.
18    In the event that the municipality and the board are unable
19to resolve these differences, or in the event that the
20resubmitted plan or amendment is rejected by the board, the
21municipality may proceed with the plan or amendment, but only
22upon a three-fifths vote of the corporate authority responsible
23for approval of the plan or amendment, excluding positions of
24members that are vacant and those members that are ineligible
25to vote because of conflicts of interest.
26    (c) After a municipality has by ordinance approved a

 

 

HB5017- 11 -LRB101 19438 AWJ 68910 b

1redevelopment plan and designated a redevelopment project
2area, the plan may be amended and additional properties may be
