Revenue Sources -Discussion and Recommendation
Alderman Curry opened the continuing discussion regarding increasing the Simplified Municipal
Telecommunication Tax. Finance Director Lynch reported that currently the City's
telecommunication tax rate is at 1% and this year generated $129,000 in revenue. Alderman
Schaefer inquired if the annual revenue has remains constants over the years. Finance Director
Lynch replied that the revenue stream has decrease over the last few years in part due to the fact
that many people no longer have landlines. She went on to report that in FY-16/17 the
Telecommunication Tax revenue was $143,000. Alderman Schaefer asked if the revenue stream
would be impacted by any State regulations. Finance Director Lynch replied at this time she is
unaware of any changes with respect to the State's collection and distribution of the
telecommunication tax. She noted that the State does charge municipalities a'/:% administration
fee.
There was some discussion with respect to the public prescription if the City were to increase the
Telecommunication Tax from 1% to 6%. 6% is the average tax imposed by the majority of the
surrounding communities. Alderman Curry suggested increasing the tax from 1% to 3% which
would double the current revenue stream and aid in making up for the loss in revenue with
respect to maintaining a flat property tax. In addition, this is a tax based on personal usage not
on the assessed value of one's home.
The Committee Members discussed recommending to the full City Council an increase to the
Telecommunication Tax. Finance Director Lynch directed the Committee Members attention to
the preliminary CIP worksheet drafted by Administrator Morefield which depicts the fund
balances as of April 30, 2018. She reported that the Capital Improvement Fund balance is
$212,721. However, the fund balance is depleted after all the capital improvements that should
be completed in the next fiscal year are funded. Finance Director Lynch continued on to discuss
the General Fund balance which is $7,266,958. She noted that the General Fund balance has an
$80,000 shortfall which conflicts with the City's Fund Balance Policy. Finance Director Lynch
noted that once the City fails to maintain a reserve of 120 days of operating expenses they
required to draft a plan to replenish the funds.
The Committee Members discussed in length increasing the Home Rule Municipal Retailers'
Occupation Tax. A Motion was made by Alderman Schaefer and seconded by Alderman Mihevc
to recommend to the full City Council an increase in the Telecommunication Tax by 2% bringing
the total to 3% and increasing the Home Rule Municipal Retailers' Occupation Tax and the
Home Rule Service Occupation Tax by '/.% bringing the total to %% Roll call: Vote: 3-ayes:
Alderman Schaefer, Alderman Mihevc and Alderman Curry. 0-nays, 0-abstained. Motion carried.
There was some discussion with respect to a previous conversations regarding imposing a
Transfer of Property Tax. However, this type of taxation would require a referendum on an
upcoming ballot. In addition, the Community Development Committee has already investigated
this matter and decided not to move forward with a recommendation to the full City Council.
Staff Reports
Finance Director Lynch reported that residents may now view their water bills via the City's
website.
Any Other Business
Alderman Curry reported that he had sent Director Martin his comments regarding the Economic
Incentive Policy. Alderman Schaefer and Alderman Mihevc noted that they will also sent their

COMMITTEE SUPPLEMENT
TO: Chairman Curry, Finance and Personnel Committee
Finance and Personnel Committee Members
FROM: Douglas Martin, Director of Economic Development
FOR: February 4, 2019 Finance and Personnel Committee Meeting
RE: Property Tax Abatement --- Brake Parts
ATT: 1. Location Map
2. Excerpt from Municipal Code on Tax Abatements
3. Photographs of Site
4. Fabrik Property Tax Abatement Agreement
Brake Parts Inc, located at 4400 Prime Parkway, is contemplating relocating their research and
development facility from Winchester, KY to 1600 Industrial Drive in McHenry. They currently
own the building at 1600 Industrial Drive, which has been vastly underutilized for numerous
years since their manufacturing facility relocated to China. The building was constructed in
1975 and is approximately 267,000 square feet.
Brake Parts would make a $4.0 million investment in this building to relocate their R and D
facility and in order to make it more attractive to them staff is proposing a property tax
abatement. The building and situation meet the criteria outlined in the Municipal Code and
Economic Development Strategy. The total assessed valuation is currently $1,883,476 or
market value equal to $5,650,428. This equates to just over $13,000 annually in property taxes
paid to the City.
Staff is recommending a 10 year 100% abatement over and above the 2018 City of McHenry
taxes for 1600 Industrial Drive which would be the base tax amount, similar to the methodology
utilized in the Fabrik agreement. Using a straight $4,000,000 market value, the approximate
abatement would be slightly under $12,000 annually, as the tax rate is 11.8 and the City
receives .73 of that amount. This is an estimate however.

building in the heart of town. Staff recommends supporting the request.
