Section 11-74.6-22, approve | redevelopment plans and redevelopment
projects, and designate | redevelopment planning areas and redevelopment project
areas | pursuant to notice and
hearing required by this Act. No | redevelopment planning area or redevelopment
project area | shall be
designated unless a plan and project are approved | before the designation of
the area and the area shall include | only those parcels of real
property and improvements on those | parcels substantially benefited by the
proposed redevelopment | project improvements.
Upon adoption of the ordinances, the | municipality shall forthwith transmit to
the county clerk of | the county or counties within which the redevelopment
project | area is located a certified copy of the ordinances, a legal | description
of the redevelopment project area, a map of the | redevelopment project area,
identification of the year that the | county clerk shall use for determining the
total initial |
| equalized assessed value of the redevelopment project area
| consistent with subsection (a) of Section 11-74.6-40, and a
| list of the parcel or tax identification number of each parcel | of property
included in the redevelopment project area.
| (b) Make and enter into all contracts necessary or | incidental to the
implementation and furtherance of its | redevelopment plan and project.
| (c) Within a redevelopment project area, acquire by | purchase,
donation, lease or eminent domain; own, convey, | lease, mortgage or
dispose of land and other property, real or | personal, or rights or
interests therein, and grant or acquire | licenses, easements and options
with respect to that property, | all in the manner and at a price that the
municipality | determines is reasonably necessary to achieve the objectives
of | the redevelopment plan and project. No conveyance, lease, | mortgage,
disposition of land or other property owned by a | municipality, or agreement
relating to the
development of the | municipal property shall be made or executed except
pursuant to | prior official action of the corporate authorities of the
| municipality. No conveyance,
lease, mortgage, or other | disposition of land owned by a municipality, and
no agreement | relating to the
development of the municipal property, shall be | made without making public
disclosure of
the terms and the | disposition of all bids and proposals submitted to the
| municipality in connection therewith. The procedures for | obtaining the bids
and proposals
shall provide reasonable |
| opportunity for any person to submit alternative
proposals
or | bids.
| (d) Within a redevelopment project area, clear any area by
| demolition or removal of any existing buildings, structures, | fixtures,
utilities or improvements, and to clear and grade | land.
| (e) Within a redevelopment project area, renovate or | rehabilitate or
construct any structure or building, as | permitted under this Law.

construct, reconstruct or relocate streets,
| utilities and site improvements essential to the preparation of | the

rents and charges for the use of all or any part | of any building or
property owned or leased by it.

things of value from a public or private source | for use within a project
redevelopment area.
| (j) Acquire and construct public facilities within a | redevelopment
project area, as permitted under this Law.
| (k) Incur, pay or cause to be paid redevelopment project | costs; provided,
however,
that on and
after the effective date | of this amendatory
Act of the 91st General Assembly, no |
| municipality shall incur redevelopment
project costs (except
| for planning and other eligible costs authorized by municipal | ordinance or
resolution that are subsequently included in the | redevelopment plan for the
area and are incurred after the | ordinance or resolution is adopted) that are
not consistent | with the program for
accomplishing the objectives of the
| redevelopment plan as included in that plan and approved by the
| municipality until the municipality has amended
the | redevelopment plan as provided elsewhere in this Law.
Any | payments to be made by the municipality to redevelopers or | other
nongovernmental persons for redevelopment project costs | incurred by
such redeveloper or other nongovernmental person | shall be made only pursuant
to the prior official action of the | municipality evidencing an intent to
pay or cause to be paid | such redevelopment project costs. A
municipality is not | required to obtain any right, title or interest in any
real or | personal property in order to pay redevelopment project
costs | associated with such property. The municipality shall adopt | such
accounting procedures as may be necessary to determine | that such redevelopment
project costs are properly paid.
| (l) Create a commission of not less than 5 or more than 15 | persons to
be appointed by the mayor or president of the | municipality with the consent
of the majority of the governing | board of the municipality. Members of a

shall be appointed for | initial terms of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years,
respectively, in |
| numbers so that the terms of not more than
1/3 of all members | expire in any one year. Their successors
shall be appointed for | a term of 5 years. The commission, subject to
approval of the | corporate authorities of the municipality, may exercise the
| powers enumerated in this Section. The commission shall also | have the power
to hold the public hearings required by this Act | and make recommendations
to the corporate authorities | concerning the adoption of redevelopment
plans, redevelopment | projects and designation of redevelopment project areas.
| (m) Make payment in lieu of all or a portion of real | property taxes due
to taxing districts. If payments in lieu of | all or a portion of taxes are
made to taxing districts, those | payments shall be made to all districts
within a redevelopment | project area on a basis that is proportional to the
current | collection of revenue which each taxing district receives from | real
property in the redevelopment project area.
| (n) Exercise any and all other powers necessary to | effectuate the
purposes of this Act.
| (o) In conjunction with other municipalities, undertake | and perform
redevelopment plans and projects and utilize the | provisions of the Act
wherever they have contiguous | redevelopment project areas or they determine
to adopt tax | increment allocation financing with respect to a redevelopment
| project area that includes contiguous real property within the | boundaries
of the municipalities, and, by agreement between | participating
