N.A., (Applicant) is seeking a Cook County Class 7A property tax exemption for property
located at 900 E. Higgins Road.

Page 9 of 10
branch at 100 Biesterfield Road is shared with a Starbucks, has no drive-thru, and has a
difficult parking setup.
(The Applicant expects greater efficiency with operations and expects the site to work
synergistically with the surrounding commercial businesses and customers. As a Wintrust
Community Bank, the Occupant combines the personalized service typical of smaller
community banks, such as local decision-making, relationship banking, and involvement
in local commerce, with the resources and capabilities of a larger banking organization.
(The Applicant will transfer 4-5 full-time employees to the new site and plans to hire 2-3
new full-time employees over the next three years.
(The Applicant plans to invest over $2.025 million in site and building improvements,
which include reconstructing the concrete parking aprons, resurfacing the parking lot,
repairing the curb, gutters, and sidewalks, updating the landscaping, resurfacing the facade,
updating the monument sign, removing the pole sign, and adding an elk statue.
(The eligibility requirements for 7A status are new construction, substantial rehabilitation,
or buildings that have been vacant for a period of time. This site qualifies as it is a
Reoccupation of Abandoned Property with a Purchase for Value, Substantial
Rehabilitation, and Special Circumstances.
(Property approved for Class 7A status allows the owner of the property to have the
assessment level lowered for a period of twelve years. The assessment schedule is 10% of
fair market value for ten years, then 15% in the eleventh year and 20% in the twelfth year.
Industrial property is currently assessed at 25% of fair market value in Cook County.
(Upon approval, the Director of Business Development and Marketing will issue a Letter
of Receipt to the Applicant. The Letter of Receipt will allow the Applicant to file an
application with Cook County. Final approval is at the discretion of the Village Board and
contingent on the Applicant completing the improvements stated in their application.

Receipt.)
