Business and Economic Development Committee approves property tax incentives for three firms

The Business and Economic Development Committee approved three property tax incentive requests by voice vote during a short meeting that also included a public comment and approval of minutes.

The chair bundled the tax-incentive items and identified them in the motion as item 26-0558, a 6p property tax incentive request for Hanover Displays Incorporated in the village of Elk Grove; item 26-0559, a 6b property tax incentive request for Winona 9505 LLC and Noga Food Incorporated in the village of Schiller Park; and item 26-0560, a 6p property tax incentive request for LaVox Inc in the village of Arlington Heights. The transcript records Commissioner Anaya moving the bundle and Commissioner Moore seconding; the chair called for ayes and the motions were approved.

The motion and approval were recorded as voice votes; the transcript does not provide a roll-call tally or member-by-member votes. The transcript also contains inconsistent spellings for one commissioner’s name earlier in the meeting (the roll call lists "Commissioner Naya" while later motions are attributed to "Commissioner Anaya"); the record here reflects the transcript’s inconsistent spellings rather than an editorial correction.

No substantive debate, amendments or requests for staff follow-up on the incentives are recorded in the transcript. After the approvals the committee moved to adjourn.

Minutes earlier in the meeting were also approved by motion and voice vote. The meeting was adjourned shortly after the incentive approvals.
