Agenda of GBHA Properties 1, Inc. September 19, 2024 Page 2 Report to the GBHA Properties 1, Inc. of the City of Green Bay MEETING DATE PREPARED BY September 19, 2024 Stephanie Schmutzer, Staff 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. ATTACHMENTS 1. Pilot Agreement - GBHA Properties I Inc 2.

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 Estimated (Estimated Fair Market utilities expenses * 4.5% Address / Tax ID Fair Market Land Value / 1000 * City (Estimated rent 634,662 – 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.

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.
