No General Funds are pledged to secure bonds. Sufficient annual tax increment to cover administrative costs of the Agency has been reserved, or provided for from other sources. The bonds will be sold as part of an Association of Bay Area Government's (ABAG) Finance Authority pooled financing. Combining the two Contra Costa County redevelopment project areas with five other redevelopment areas elsewhere in California via the ABAG program into one issuance of bonds through the ABAG Finance Authority will result in a more efficient financing. BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS A. Prior Actions On April 7, 1992 the Board of Supervisors and the Redevelopment Agency approved the formation of the County of Contra Costa Public Financing Authority for the purpose of issuing bonds for four of the Redevelopment Agency's project areas - Pleasant Hill BART, North Richmond, West Pittsburg and Oakley. B. Sources and Uses of Funds Based on available and expected tax increment, the Authority would expect to issue approximately $4. 0 million in bonds. The total amount of funds available for program purposes would be over $3 . 6 million as follows: Proiect Area Program Proceeds North Richmond $1, 100, 000 Bay Point $2 , 500, 000 The primary anticipated uses of bond proceeds are for infra- structure improvements in the Project Areas, including circulation, drainage and utility projects. North Richmond Brookside Drive $ 300, 000 Pittsburg Avenue 690, 000 Total $ 990, 000 Bay Point North Broadway* $2, 500, 000 Revitalization Program Total $2,500, 000 *Could include road, drainage, utility and related infrastructure improvements in the North Broadway area of Bay Point.
