Support of Class 9 Tax incentive for property at 4920 N Sheridan Rd
The Illinois General Assembly's amendment to the Property Tax Code allows the Cook County Assessor's Office to implement the Affordable Housing Special Assessment Program. The City of Chicago, recognizing a housing affordability issue, can designate areas like the Uptown Community Area, where 4920 N Sheridan LLC is building, as 'Low Affordability Communities'. An ordinance declares the project real property a Low-Affordability Community, effective 10 days after passage, with developers committing to keep 20% of units affordable for 30 years.
