FROM: Phil Batchelor County
Executive Director County
DATE: May 25, 1993
SUBJECT: AB 691 (Richter)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS (S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
ADOPT position in support of AB 691 (Richter) and AUTHORIZE the Deputy
Director-Redevelopment to communicate said support to the County's
legislative delegation.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
When redevelopment agencies are considering the adoption of
redevelopment plans or plan amendments, existing law requires that
notices be mailed by "certified mail-return receipt requested" to the
last known assessee or owner of each parcel of land in the project
area and to the governing body of each of the taxing agencies that
levy taxes upon any property in the project area. AB 691 would modify
this procedure by requiring that notices be mailed by first class mail
to the last known assessee and to the governing body of each taxing
entity rather than sending such notices by certified mail with return
receipt requested. Over the years staff has encountered hostility
when certified mail is being sent to the community because often
property owners are not home at time of delivery and must retrieve
such notices from the post office at a later date. Certified mail is
also significantly more expensive.
