Mr. Feeney is requesting an extension of the designation period for a five year <br /> residential property tax abatement granted to Rojo Development, Inc., Norawood Manor through <br /> resolution number 3644-06 on September 25, 2006. The designation period granted to Rojo <br /> Development was five years and is due to expire on September 25,2011.Subsequent to receiving the <br /> designation, Rojo Development sold the four vacant lots to the three petitioners. Mr. Feeney is <br /> requesting a one year extension on the designation (making the total designation six years). The <br /> extension request is due to a delay in the anticipated construction due to the economy and the <br /> depressed market for residential construction. <br /> 1n view of the current situation Mr. Feeney is requesting a one year extension of the designation <br /> period. The request falls within the Council's guidelines,which allow for a petitioner to request up <br /> to a one year extension for good reason. Also attached are a revised Statement of Benefits (Form <br /> SB-1) from each of the three petitioners along with a map of Norawood.Enclosed also is a copy of <br /> the original staffreport as prepared by Sharon Terrell in 2006. Mr.Feeney will be available to meet <br /> with the Committee and answer any questions on Monday, September 12,2011. <br /> COMMUNII'Y DEVELOPMENT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FINAIVCIAL&PROGRAM <br /> ' PAMELA C.MEYER .
