FY 2010-15 Implementation Plan in compliance with California Community Redevelopment Law.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No general funds are involved.

BACKGROUND:

California Redevelopment Law (Health & Safety Code Section 33490), requires all redevelopment agencies administering redevelopment plans adopted prior to January 1, 1994, to adopt an Implementation Plan every five years. The Implementation Plan has a non-housing and housing component which, in total, must describe the following: (1) specific goals and objectives for the next five years; (2) specific projects, including a program of activities and expenditures to be made within the five years of the plan; (3) an explanation of how the goals, objectives, projects and expenditures will eliminate blight; (4) an explanation of how the goals, objectives, projects and expenditures will implement the low- and moderate-income housing set-aside and housing production requirements; (5) the number of housing units to be rehabilitated, price-restricted, assisted or destroyed; (6) plans for using annual deposits to the Housing Fund; (7) if a planned project will result in the destruction of existing affordable housing, an identification of proposed locations for the replacement housing the Agency will be required to produce, and (8) the project area affordable housing production plan.

The Agency adopted its first Implementation Plan in December 1995, and subsequently in 1999 and 2006. The prior Implementation Plans included a five-year capital program and a ten-year housing program as required by California Redevelopment Law (CRL). This new Implementation Plan will provide for Agency activities for the years 2010 through 2015.

The Health & Safety Code requires that prior to adoption, the Redevelopment Agency conduct a public hearing for the Implementation Plan for the Agency’s five existing redevelopment areas; (1) The North Richmond Redevelopment Project Area; (2) The Montalvin Manor Redevelopment Project Area; (3) The Rodeo Redevelopment Project Area; (4) The Contra Costa Centre Redevelopment Project Area; and (5) The Bay Point Redevelopment Project Area. This Implementation Plan has been reviewed by the various local Committees, and incorporates their comments.
