3416-3422 Cochrane- Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT).  (C&S Towns Development, LLC (“Property Owner”) is the owner of the development known as “3416-3422 Cochrane” (the “Development”). The Development has applied for the City of Detroit’s expanded Payment In Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) program implemented pursuant Chapter 44-4-112 et. seq. of the 2019 Detroit City Code (the “PILOT Ordinance”) in order to replace traditional ad valorem property taxes associated with the Development with a service charge based on a percentage of rental revenue in exchange for Property Owner’s agreement to limit the income and rent of certain units at the Development for a 15-year period. The Development is a workforce housing project as defined by the PILOT Ordinance, meaning the average affordability restrictions proposed for this Development are between 81-120% of the Area Median Income (AMI). Because the project is workforce housing project, and does not involve the rehabilitation of a structure that has been continuously vacant for 60 months or more, pursuant to Section 44-4-113(d) of the 2019 Detroit City Code Property Owner is required to obtain the approval of the Housing and Revitalization Department (“HRD”) and the City Council before it can receive a PILOT.)
