SUBJECT: An Ordinance Approving the Second Amendment to the Redevelopment
Agreement Between the Village of Lemont and Lenny's Real Estate
Development, LLC for a Redevelopment Project at 10900 South Archer
Avenue in the Village of Lemont Main Street / Archer Avenue Tax
Increment Redevelopment Project Area
DATE: March 10, 2025
SUMMARY/BACKGROUND
The Village of Lemont adopted Ordinance 0-22-23 approving a redevelopment agreement
(RDA) with Lenny's Lemont to support the construction of a Gas N Wash at the northwest
corner of IL-83 and Main Street. Gas N' Wash has been operating for about a year, including
a fuel station, two quick service restaurants and convenience store.
The Village also approved an amendment to the redevelopment agreement on June 10, 2024
- adopted as Ordinance 0-24-24. The amendment primarily included reconfiguration of the
lots for additional truck parking areas along Main Street and addition of a retail outlot along
Archer Ave, which is still being marketed.
A second amendment to the redevelopment agreement is needed to reimburse eligible costs
to the developer and to include previously agreed upon truck parking restrictions into the
redevelopment agreement.
Reimbursement: The reimbursable costs are eligible costs subject to the redevelopment
agreement (under the maximum allowed in the RDA) and Village responsible costs paid by the
developer. Total reimbursement is $415,043.43. There will be no further requests for
reimbursements considered until the full tax bills are assessed/realized for the site.
Regulations: At previous committee meetings and through the rezoning process, truck parking
restrictions were discussed to include no overnight truck parking (10 pm - 4 am), a 2 hour limit
for truck parking and a no idling policy. The gates and signage have been installed and
codifying these provisions in the redevelopment agreement amendment is beneficial to all. It
also includes an intent to enter into a traffic control agreement should the need arise in the
future which would allow the Village to enforce regulations.
