AGENDA ITEM # E.1
Consideration with possible action to approve the Payment In Lieu of Taxes Agreement between the City of
Green Bay and GBHA Properties 1, Inc.
BACKGROUND
While our utilize a full range of City services, tax-exempt properties do not contribute to the operation of
City government to the same extent that non-exempt properties do. While GBHA Properties 1, Inc. is not
obligated to pay property taxes, it is the staff recommendation that the Board acknowledge the local
government services our units receive and agree to a voluntary payment, called a Payment In Lieu of Taxes
(PILOT). The agreement between the City of Green Bay and GBHA Properties 1, Inc. would use a revenue-
based calculation, not the value of the property owned by the Authority.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the PILOT agreement
FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated PILOT amount would be $27,676.00 annually and recalculated at the end of every year.

This Agreement entered into this 19th day of September, 2024, by and between GBHA
Properties I, Inc., and the City of Green Bay (CITY), a municipal corporation, with an address of
100 N. Jefferson Street Green Bay, WI 54301, and collectively referred to as the (PARTIES):
WHEREAS, GBHA Properties I, Inc. owns a Properties see Addendum A described as
(PROPERTIES), located in the City of Green Bay; and
WHEREAS, the CITY supports the rehabilitation of the PROPERTIES by GBHA
Properties I, Inc. to eliminate blight and to ensure the community has a variety of housing choices
for low- and moderate-income families; and
WHEREAS, GBHA Properties I, Inc. wishes to obtain certain governmental services and
benefits from the CITY for GBHA Properties I, Inc. and the PROPERTIES, of the same type and
to the same extent as are furnished from time to time, without cost or charge (except by means of
property tax) to commercial, multi-unit residential, and single-family residential dwellings and
inhabitants of the CITY; and
WHEREAS, the PARTIES understand that the PROPERTIES qualifies for real and
personal property tax exemption under Wisconsin State Law (Wis. Stats. §70.11(4)); and
WHEREAS, GBHA Properties I, Inc. nonetheless recognizes that, notwithstanding
property tax exempt status, valuable governmental services and benefits will be provided to GBHA
Properties I, Inc., the PROPERTIES and tenants there at and which include, but are not limited to,
fire and police protection, street maintenance, garbage and recycling removal, snow removal and
other City of Green Bay services; and
WHEREAS, GBHA Properties I, Inc. wishes to make payments to the CITY in
recognition of those services and benefits.
WHEREAS, GBHA Properties I, Inc. and the CITY have each determined that it is in their
best interest to enter into this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the
parties hereto do agree as follows:
1. Whenever used in this Agreement:
a. The term “PROPERTIES” shall mean the property listed on Addendum A.
b. The term “TAXING BODY” shall mean the State of Wisconsin
(“STATE”) or any political subdivision or taxing unit thereof in which the
PROPERTIES are situated, and which would have the authority to assess
or level real or personal property taxes or to certify such taxes to a taxing
body or public officer to be levied for its use and benefit with respect to the
PROPERTIES if it were not exempt from taxation.
2. The CITY and GBHA Properties I, Inc. recognize the tax exempt status of GBHA
Properties I, Inc. on the PROPERTIES, from all real and personal property tax under the applicable
statutes and regulations of the STATE. However, GBHA Properties I, Inc. has agreed to make a
payment in lieu of taxes to the City of Green Bay contingent on this PILOT Agreement.
3. The CITY agrees to furnish governmental services and benefits to GBHA
Properties I, Inc. and the PROPERTIES of the same type and to the same extent as are furnished
from time to time, without cost or charge (except by means of property tax) to commercial, multi-
unit residential, and single-family residential dwellings and inhabitants of the CITY. GBHA
Properties I, Inc. understands that it may be subject to special assessments or special charges
charged by the CITY in the same manner that such special assessments and special charges are
charged for similar services or undertakings to commercial, multi-unit residential, and single-
family residential dwellings in the city.
4. In consideration of those services and benefits provided under the terms of this
Agreement, GBHA Properties I, Inc. agrees to pay the CITY an annual payment in lieu of taxes
(“PILOT”) for the PROPERTIES for each calendar year during which GBHA Properties I, Inc. is
the record owner of the PROPERTIES, in accordance with the PILOT payment calculation, using
the rental values calculated below. The PILOT payments hereunder shall be billed in December
of each year and due and payable according to dates set forth in Wis. Stat. § 74.11.
PILOT = Dwelling rents - less

Land Value
Mill Rate (7.582)) * 60% Estimated Utilities 19,635)
769,000 $3,489
Appendix A $27,676
5. Every Fifth (5th) year, the City of Green Bay Assessors Office will determine a
current Estimated Fair Market Land Value for the PROPERTIES. Should GBHA Properties I, Inc.
dispute the Assessors’ valuation, GBHA Properties I, Inc. may supply the CITY with a current
Estimated Fair Market Land Value prepared by a third-party appraiser or real estate broker
(including a Broker Price Opinion).If the difference between the Assessors’ Estimated Fair Market
Land Value and the GBHA Properties I, Inc.-obtained Estimated Fair Market Land Value is less
than or equal to ten percent (10%), both GBHA Properties I, Inc. and the CITY agree to use the
mean (average) value of the two estimates as the current Estimated Fair Market Value. Should the
variance between the two (2) estimates exceed ten percent (10%) of the Assessors’ proposed value,
GBHA Properties I, Inc. may elect to either
o establish the current Estimated Fair Market Land Value as though the variance
between the estimates were only ten percent (10%) (as described above), or,
o at its discretion and expense, obtain a third-party appraisal of the PROPERTIES.
Should GBHA Properties I, Inc. provide the CITY with a third-party appraisal,
the Estimated Fair Market Land Value shall be equal to the mean (average) value
of the three (3) appraisals.
6. The CITY may use and expend PILOT payments hereunder in such manner for
such purposes as the CITY desires.
7. This Agreement shall terminate on the day before the respective January 1st of the
year during which any of the following events occur:
a. The CITY determines that all of the PROPERTIES no longer qualifies for
property tax exemption; OR
b. Enactment of STATE legislation and or regulations requiring payment by
property owners exempt from the general property tax and other similarly
situated property exempt owners, for municipal services provided; OR
c. Loss of property tax exempt status for the PROPERTIES; OR
d. Upon a determination by either of the PARTIES that a continuation of the
Agreement is not in the best interest of that party, pursuant to a written
ninety (90) day notice to the other party.
8. GBHA Properties I, Inc. agrees to cooperate with the CITY and with applicable
Departments of the CITY (including, but not limited to, the CITY’s Assessor’s Office, the CITY’S
Attorney Office, and the CITYS Finance Department) with respect to the Agreement by allowing
inspection of the PROPERTIES, upon reasonable written request of the CITY, and such documents
that GBHA Properties I, Inc. and the CITY may reasonably agree are relevant to an exemption
determination.
9. The CITY and GBHA Properties I, Inc. reserve the right to modify and amend this
Agreement from time to time, upon mutual written agreement duly executed by the PARTIES.
10. In the event any term, condition, covenant or portion of this Agreement is held to
be unconscionable or otherwise invalid, the remainder of this Agreement will remain in full force
and effect and GBHA Properties I, Inc. and CITY hereby stipulate to that such term, condition,
covenant or portion of this Agreement shall be limited and modified so as to avoid an
unconscionable result, and as limited and modified shall become part of this Agreement.
11.This Agreement shall be construed and enforced under laws of the State of
Wisconsin.
