Exhibit "A"
SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES JUSTIFYING 6B AS
A RESULT OF REOCCUPANCY OF ABANDONED PROPERTY
VACANT FOR LESS THAN 24 CONTINUOUS MONTHS
1. The property has been vacant since August 2009. The purchaser intends
to acquire and improve the property,then procure a manufacturing or distribution user.
However, the contract to purchase is contingent upon obtaining Class 6b status.
Without the assessment incentive, it will be much more difficult to procure a user,
particularly in light of current economic conditions and the property's proximity to
DuPage County.
2. In order to market the property for manufacturing or distribution,
significant sums will need to be spent to repair and improve the property. Additionally,
the property suffers from physical disadvantages compared to competitive properties,
such as 20' 6" clear ceilings and only one drive-in door.
