Lobaito, City Administrator FOR: January 14, 2002 Regular City Council Meeting RE: Redevelopment Project Area for the Tax Increment Financing District Attachments: 1. Tax Increment Finance District Information 2. Copy of Public Notice This public meeting is conducted to advise the public; taxing districts that have real property in the proposed redevelopment project area; taxpayers who own property in the proposed redevelopment area; and residents residing within the project area as to the possible intent of the city to prepare a redevelopment plan. It is also the intention of the meeting to advise the affected parties of the proposed redevelopment project area and receive comment on the project. Preceding the meeting, a public notice was mailed to the affected groups described previously. Approximately 250 notices were mailed. Kathy Orr, Esq. will be in attendance to provide an overview for the audience along with a representative from Trkla, Pettigrew, Allen & Payne, Inc. to explain in more technical detail, the redevelopment project. In addition, the audience will be provided a handout at the door, a copy of which is attached to this supplement. This handout was developed early in the process to help answer some basic questions about Tax Increment Finance Districts. There is no statutorily prescribed agenda for this meeting. The intent of this meeting is to make the public aware of the City of McHenry’s proposed plans and to provide an opportunity for the public to comment. During and after the presentation by the city’s representatives, there will be an opportunity for the audience to ask questions. The Mayor will moderate during this time, and will answer the questions herself or call on someone to answer the questions. Replies to the questions will be factual in nature and not an opinion about the project. mmg mmg
