purchasing the subject property and rehabilitating the saute for its related entity, Swiss Machining
Expertise LLC, to occupy for its industrial use consisting of a CNC machine shop where it mill
manufa%turc, warehouse and distribute parts for hydraulic equipment used in various industries.
The subject property is approximately 14,250 square feet with an approximately 5,600 square:
foot building thereon that has been 100% vacant and unused since April, 2022. The property is in need
of substantial rehabilitation. Therefore, the Applicant plans to spend approximately $75,000 to
$125,000 to immediately rehabilitate and improve the exterior of the subject property. Based on initial
inspections these improvements will be to update the landscaping, update/improve the fagade, add
signage, add LED exterior lighting, update the dock drive per Elk Grove Village standards, reconstruct
the retaining wall, tuckpoint as necessary and resurface and restripe parking lot as well as to complete
other general maintenance. The Applicant plans to also complete interior improvements. Please note
that all of the rehabilitation costs could significantly vary depending on a variety of factors such as
market variances. Further inspections of the subject property may require additional improvements.
The rehabilitation will create approximately 10 to 25 construction jobs.
Swiss Machining Expertise LLC currently leases a couple spaces totaling approximately 4,600
square feet in Bensenville, Illinois. Swiss Machining Expertise LLC needs more space to grow as well
as to consolidate its operations to maximize its functionality. Therefore, the Applicant plans to
rehabilitate the subject property to meet Swiss Machining Expertise LLC's needs and it will move its
entire operation to the same. Currently, Swiss Machining Expertise LLC has 3 employees (2 full-time;
1 part-time) and plans to bring all of these employees to the subject property and to hire an additional 2
to 3 employees as soon as possible. Additionally, Swiss Machining Expertise LLC will look to hire all
qualified Elk Grove Village residents for future hires.
Based on our research and the additional costs that must be incurred to improve and rehabilitate
the building in order for this to be a successful endeavor, the Applicant must possess a Class 6b
Incentive to complete the improvements and to successfully operate the property. It is for these
reasons that it is necessary to grant the Applicant a Resolution supporting and consenting to a Class 6b
Incentive for the subject property based on occupation of an abandoned property that has been vacant
for less than 24 continuous months with a purchase for value, special circumstances and substantial
rehabilitation.
