AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Brown, Doane, Hastings, Laszlo None Forsythe Motion carried I PUBLIC HEARING - AB 1290 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN - REDEVELOPMENT PROJECTS . Vice Chairman Hastings declared the public hearing open to consider the Five Ye~r Implementation Plan for Seal Beach Redevelopment Projects as required by AB 1290. The City Clerk certified that notic# of the public hearing had been advertised on three separate dates as required, and reported no communications received relating to this item. The Executive Director explained that AB 1290 mandated redevelopment agencies to develop a five year Implementation Plan, the intent of this legislation thought to be for the State to take a more active role in monitoring the implementation and functions of redevelopment agencies, their debts, use of low/moderate housing funds, etc. He confirmed that the Plan must be submitted to the state no later than December 31st, and at the option of the Council may be adopted at the conclusion of the public hearing or at a subsequent adjourned meeting prior to that date. The City Attorney explained that Seal Beach has two redevelopment projects, the Surfs ide Project which was designed for a single purpose, that purpose has been accomplished therefore the Project is technically inactive~ there is no debt and no tax increment is being received, the goals and objectives of the Riverfront project are set forth under section II of the Plan, the tax increment received as a result of this Project is obligated to the payment of existing debt and to the required twenty percent low and moderate income housing set-aside fund. The Development Services Director offered that final revisions to the Plan were only completed this date thus the lateness of 12-12-94 providing the completed document to the Agency, and acknowledged that there have been no substantive changes from the draft document. In response to Vice Chairman Hastings, the city Attorney explained that the definition of 'blight' is found in state law, ~ne definition applies to projects formed prior to AB 1290, another applies to more recent projects. The Development Services Director added that in regard to the I AB 1290 Plan the definition of 'blight' set forth in state law would reflect the definition at the time the Redevelopment - - Plan was adopted and prior to the implementation of AB 1290, other definitions of 'blight' exist in areas of law that relate more specifically to city operations. Vice Chairman Hastings invited members of the audience wishing to speak to this item to come to the microphone and state their name and address for'the record. Ms. Sue Corbin, Seal Beach, asked that this item be continued to allow time for citizen review, alleged to do otherwise would not constitute a public hearing, and expressed criticism that the Plan document was not available sooner. The Executive Director pointed out that legislation passed in October, subsequent to AB 1290, provided a limited time frame for preparation and submittal of the Plan, AB 1290 having established the reporting mechanism to the State, in a f':lrmat so specified, which contains information that is already set forth within the City's Redevelopment Plan, and that provides the information necessary for the State to commence an evaluation of local redevelopment agencies. He confirmed that this is not a Plan amendment nor does it propose any redevelopment projects, merely a reporting mechanism to the State as to whether adopted plans have or have not been implemented, the potential of those plans occurring, also proposed utilization of the I twenty percent low/moderate income housing set-aside. Mr. Gordon Shanks, 215 Surf Place, indicated he could not foresee a problem with the Plan given the explanation provided by the Executive Director, however offered that some citizens become uneasy and question items that require an immediate action to meet a deadline. The City Attorney confirmed this to be a legal public hearing, the initial draft Plan had been available for review prior to the final document and the hearing, however it is at the discretion of the Agency to continue this matter if desired. Vice Chairman Hastings declared the public :!learing closed. RESOLUTION NUMBER 94-3 - AB 1290 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN - REDEVELOPMENT PROJECTS Resolution Number 94-3 was presented to the Agency entitled "A RESOLUTION OF THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH ADOPTING AN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR THE RIVERFRONT REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AND THE SURFSIDE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT."
