TO: NANCY CARLSON FROM: MARIANN GULLO RE: 1300 LUNT AVENUE, ELK GROVE VILLAGE CLARIFY THE "SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES" REASONS FOR ABANDONMENT NANCY, Gullo purchased this facility on 5-4-01 from Cooper Tire. It was built in the early 1970's and needs desperate repair work and restoration to compete with the newer facilities in the park. We see a great potential for this property. Due to the great amount of expenses it will take to make such repairs, we would like to request a 613 abatement to help us make this facility an appealing one for potential users. The Special Circumstances for which I am seeking a 613 Abatement are many. The most important factors that are effecting the marketing, sale or leasing of this property are; 1. PARKING 2. EXTERIOR + STRUCTURE + AESTHETICS 3. DEFERRED MAINTENANCE 1. PARKING A 27,000 s.f building should have a minimum of 30 car parking. This facility instead has only 11 car parking. Therefore, ownership needs to redesign the parking lot to accommodate any tenant that has an interest in leasing the facility. 2. EXTERIOR + STRUCTURE + AESTHETICS The overhead doors are damaged and need to be replaced. The dock levelers were not properly installed and do not function. They need to be repositioned and installed properly so the trucks no longer hit the building. The metal siding is damaged and fading and needs to be repaired and refinished to render the facility more appealing. In addition, the roof needs to be repaired. 3. DEFERRED MAINTENANCE Mechanical Systems have not been properly maintained through the years. Ceiling Grid and tiles need to be replaced. The general appearance of the interior is very run down and "deteriorated." The Ordinance states " In the case of abandoned property, if the municipality or the Board of Commissioners, as the case may be, finds that special circumstances justify finding that the property is "abandoned" for purpose of Class 6B, even though it has been vacant and unused for less than 24 months, that finding along with the specification of the circumstances should be included in the resolution or the ordinance supporting and consenting to the Class 6B application. Such resolution or ordinance should be filed with the eligibility application. If the ordinance or the resolution is that of a municipality, the approval of the Board of Commissioners of Cook County is required to validate such shortened period of qualifying abandonment, and a resolution to the effect should be included with the Class 6B eligibility application filed with the Assessor. Mrs. Jackie Harder is looking for the Special Circumstances as well as your approval of them in the resolution language. I thank you in advance for your help and cooperation in this matter Sincerely, r/ Mariann Gult G:\data\wpdocs\clients\ 13001unt\6B\abandonment
