Property taxes will be raised at Downtown Peoria building for repairs
PEORIA — Downtown Peoria's Twin Towers Condominiums will be the recipient of a city-backed loan proposal to help fund needed repairs to the buildings. The Peoria City Council on Tuesday night approved a plan to raise property taxes on residents of the Twin Towers Condominium Association to repay a $2.5 million loan that will be given to the towers via a private loan from a banking institution. A deal with a private institution is still being worked out to back the loan, city officials said Tuesday. Peoria's involvement in the plan consists of collecting the property taxes via a special-service area. More: Proposal to increase taxes at Peoria condo building set for hearing The money loaned to the Twin Towers will be used to make much needed repairs to the buildings' parking garage, roof, HVAC, electrical and fire suppression system. The complex does not have the cash on hand to make the repairs itself. The Twin Towers opened in 1984. To repay the loan, the property taxes of residents at the towers will be increased. The extra property tax fee levied would not be allowed to exceed $2.75 of every $100 of equalized assessed value. The deal runs through 2046.
