Body

WHEREAS, the Village of Orland Park desires to promote the redevelopment, substantial rehabilitation and expansion of commercial industry in the Village of Orland Park; and

 

WHEREAS, the Cook County Assessor is operating under an ordinance enacted by the Cook County Board of Commissioners, and amended from time to time, which has instituted a program to encourage industrial and commercial attraction, retention, rehabilitation, and expansion in Cook County known as the Cook County Real Property Classification Ordinance; and

 

WHEREAS, Sandrick Law Firm LLC, on behalf of Shailesh Shah/ACKS Property LLC, has applied for a Class 8 property status pursuant to said aforementioned ordinance, specifically as the ordinance covers “Occupation of Abandoned Property - with Special Circumstances” for certain real estate located at 15615 South Harlem Avenue, in Bremen Township, Orland Park/Cook County, PIN No. 28-18-308-004 and legally described hereto; and

 

WHEREAS, a finding of special circumstances is necessary as there will be no change in ownership, and the Village has determined that those special circumstances are evidence by the deteriorated condition of the property and the capital investment that is required to bring it back to a useable condition; and

 

WHEREAS, the Village of Orland Park has determined that Sandrick Law Firm LLC, on behalf of Shailesh Shah/ACKS Property LLC, has proven the need for the granting of the Class 8 tax incentive to this Board, and that such incentive provided for in said ordinance is necessary for re-occupancy of the space and reinvestment in said property to increase value, and that without this reinvestment, the area would continue to decline and remain vacant and blighted.
