HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 04161985 - 1.45 i TO: REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY Contra FROM: Phil Batchelor Executive Director Costa DATE: A p r i t 4 , 1985 C t SUBJECT: Legislation : Senate Bill 690 SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) do BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION Adopt a positioninsupport of SB 690 by Senator McCorquodale which would require the adoption of limits on tax increment allocations and time Limits on indebtedness for- redevelopment projects adopted prior to October 1 , 1976 . FINANCIAL IMPACT Potentially positive. Limitations will cause the closure of some redevelopment projects which would otherwise be "on-going" without bounds . Any provision that speeds the return of tax increments to local taking agencies will have a positive effect on County revenues . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND Existing Community Redevelopment Law requires redevelopment plans adopted on or after October 1 , 1976, to contain limitations on ,the amount of tax increment funds that may be divided and allocated to the agency under the plan , a time limit on the establishment of loans, advances, and indebtedness to finance the project, and a time limit for the commencement of eminent domain proceedings to acquire property within the project area . SB 690 would require similar limitations on projects adopted prior to October 1 , 1976, subject ' to indebtness incurred prior to that date . Some projects adopted prior to 1976, containing no limiting provisions, continue to exist Fong after they are justifiably needed . They continue to collect tax increments at the expense of other local taxing agencies . This legislation is a step toward correcting that situation and should be strongly supported .
