Summary: The purpose of this letter is to inform you of the Village of Flossmoor’s desire to participate in the Cook County no-cash bid program.

The Village agrees to report the status of the parcels to the Cook County Department of Planning & Development annually for five consecutive years or until the property is transferred to a developer, whichever occurs last, as required by the Cook County No Cash Bid Ordinance. Also, the Village will apply for tax-exempt status on the parcels once a tax deed is obtained until the parcels are transferred to a developer. The Village has retained and will bear all costs to proceed to tax deed and perform all other legal and other activities associated with this program.
