PROPERTY TAX LAW
Special circumstances requested by Youns Ai Choi
820 Nicholas Blvd Elk Grove Village, Illinois (PIN: 08-26-301-033-0000)
Young Ai Choi ("Applicant") is requesting a Resolution in support and consent of a Class 6b
Incentive on the above -referenced 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. The Applicant plans to purchase the subject property and rehabilitate the same for its
related entity, A.V.C. Tech, Inc., to occupy for its operations consisting of the light assembly,
maintenance, warehousing and distribution of consumer electronics.
The subject property consists of an approximately 24,050 square foot site with a roughly 10,000
square foot building that has been 100% vacant and unused since January 2, 2018. The property is in
need of substantial rehabilitation. Therefore, the Applicant plans to spend approximately $75,000 to
$150,000 to immediately rehabilitate the subject property. Based on initial inspections these
improvements will be to improve the facade, update the landscaping, add new signage, repair the existing
overhead door, remove and replace the sidewalks to be ADA compliant, repair and stripe the parking lot,
install a new drive apron per Elk Grove Village standards and improve the interior of the building as well
as to complete other general maintenance. Note that the HVAC will likely need to be replaced in the next
couple of years. In addition, 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 20 construction
jobs.
A.V.C. Tech, Inc. currently leases in Des Plaines. A.V.C. Tech, Inc. is growing and needs to
expand its operations, and therefore, plans to move its entire operation to the subject property. As a
result, A.V.C. Tech, Inc. plans to bring all 3 of its employees (all full-time) to the subject property. In
addition, and depending on growth, A.V.C. Tech, Inc. plans on having approximately 6 to 10 total
employees at the subject property -within the'hekt fhree years. Additionally; A.V.C."Tech -Itic. will look
to hire all qualified Elk Grove Village residents for future hires.
Elk Grove Village can also expect that A.V.C. Tech, Inc. and its employees will invest
commercially back into the community by visiting local establishments such as restaurants, gas stations,
grocery stores and more. In addition, Elk Grove Village can expect that A.V.C. Tech, Inc. will attract
business and various customers to the Village in the course of its operations.
Based on our research and the additional costs that must -be incurred to 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 in support and consent of 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
