HUNTLEY They're hearing interest from businesses in downtown Huntley, yet village officials are waiting for more owners to apply for a new village program meant to jump-start the downtown overhaul.
Trustees created in June the facade improvement program that allows downtown business owners to receive a 50-percent matching grant from the village for exterior improvements to their properties. Officials committed $50,000 in the 2014 budget for the new program.
Last week, trustees endorsed the first applicant for a window replacement project, totaling $15,850. But the application represents the village's only under the program, despite officials receiving several calls from interested owners, said Development Services Director Charles Nordman.
"It would be nice to have more applications. But at the same, given the feedback and phones calls that we are getting, it's good," Nordman said. "I would expect, come next spring, we will have a few more applications."
Before trustees created the program, village staff met with downtown business owners and explained the proposal. They also provided owners with materials and information on how to apply, once the program was approved.
The facade program would help downtown business owners cover the costs of numerous outside renovations, including roofing, landscaping and awning work. The village matches 50 percent of the total project costs, up to $10,000, under the program.
The new program helped officials cap off a busy year of downtown activity. Initially planned in 2010, the downtown overhaul would upgrade and refurbish numerous pieces to the historic downtown, including properties, parking and landscaping.
The first program applicant, owner Paul Godlewski, will now receive $7,925 in village funds for his $15,850 window replacement project. Godlewski owns property at 11021-11023 Woodstock Street and operates a real estate management company on the second floor.
He also leases space to Century 21 New Heritage and the Louis Meyer Foundation, according to village documents. He will replace nine residential-grade windows, originally installed in the 1980s, according to his application.

Huntley officials waiting on businesses for downtown improvement program
Noe Martinez called out to his 43-year-old brother, asleep on a mattress on the floor, as smoke filled the attic apartment of a Logan Square two-flat that had been illegally converted into nine rental units.
Four months earlier, a Cook County judge had ordered the building's owner, Adolfo Lopez, to stop renting the attic and basement units after months of failing to address a host of building code violations.
Jaime Martinez, a Mexican national who worked construction jobs, died in the early morning fire in October 2012. Authorities determined later that an electric space heater had been placed too close to bedding.
Last week county prosecutors charged Lopez with criminal contempt, a rare charge in connection with building code violations but one that has been brought in recent years against other allegedly negligent building owners after a death.
The two owners of the E2 nightclub, the scene of a stampede that saw 21 patrons killed in 2003, were cleared of involuntary manslaughter charges but convicted of criminal contempt for violating a housing court order to close a second floor because of building code violations in the months before the tragedy. Calvin Hollins Jr. and Dwain Kyles were sentenced to two years in prison, but that sentence was overturned on appeal. The two are awaiting resentencing.
In addition, the owner of an abandoned South Side building that collapsed during a 2010 fire, killing two firefighters, pleaded guilty in May to criminal contempt for failing to fix numerous building code violations, including securing the vacant building and repairing its roof. Chuck Dai was sentenced to six months in jail.
According to the criminal complaint against Lopez, the city first took him to court almost five years before the fatal fire, suing him over 17 separate building code violations, including illegally converting the basement and attic into apartments without adequate exits or working smoke detectors.
Lopez agreed to bring the basement and attic into compliance in August 2009 but failed to follow through, according to the complaint.
The case slowly wound its way through court. In June 2012 a judge ordered Lopez not to rent, use or lease the basement or attic of the building at 1645 N. Central Park Ave.
Lopez last appeared in court 11 days before the fatal fire. Lopez had obtained a permit to return the attic and basement areas back into storage spaces, but a building inspector told the judge that Lopez had failed to schedule an inspection as ordered, according to the complaint.

Jefferson-Morgan School Board announced last month its building and grounds committee came up with a scaled-down list of building improvements it will consider for the middle-senior high school.
The work would include the replacement of the roof, replacement of windows with new energy-efficient windows and installation of a heating and air-conditioning system.
The board initially considered a full renovation of the building, which was constructed in 1955 and last renovated about 28 years ago.
It asked its architect to prepare a feasibility study on needed improvements. However, when estimates for the project were prepared, the board realized its plans were beyond the districts means.
The district would have to come up with an additional $500,000 to $750,000 a year just to make payments on the debt incurred to fund the project, said board member Cindy Jento, chairman of the budget committee.
The board then decided to look at a pared-down project that would address the buildings most pressing needs while staying within its budget. Jento compared it to a family buying a home. You get what you can afford, she said.
We believe the improvements now being considered are fairly essential to the proper maintenance of the building and are not luxuries.
Replacement of windows and the heating system make sense in long-term savings. Installing air-conditioning will be new; however, it seems to us the best and least expensive time to do this will be while work is being done to replace the heating system.
The roof has problems. Earlier this year, the board replaced a portion of it over the auditorium and gymnasium that was plagued by leaks. The maintenance supervisor reported last month the remaining section is reaching the point at which the roofing material is starting to break down.
Though not having information on the entire list of improvements cited by the feasibility report, we would bet there are other essential improvements that should be made, and probably would be, if money were available.
