RDA RES 2011-015 RESOLUTION NO. RDA 2011-15 A RESOLUTION OF THE RANCHO PALOS VERDES REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY APPROVING A PRELIMINARY DRAFT OF AN INITIAL RECOGNIZED OBLIGATION PAYMENT SCHEDULE PURSUANT TO PART 1.8 OF DIVISION 24 OF THE CALIFORNIA HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE AND TAKING CERTAIN ACTIONS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. RECITALS: A. The Rancho Palos Verdes Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") is a redevelopment agency in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes (the "City"), created pursuant to the Community Redevelopment Law (Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000) of Division 24 of the California Health and Safety Code) (the "Redevelopment Law"). B. The City Council of the City (the "City Council") adopted Ordinance No. 190, approving and adopting the redevelopment plan for Project Area No. 1, and from time to time, the City Council has amended such redevelopment plan. The Agency is and has been undertaking a program to redevelop the Project Area. C. AB X1 26 was signed by the Governor of California on June 29, 2011, making certain changes to the Redevelopment Law, including adding Part 1.8 (commencing with Section 34161) and Part 1.85 (commencing with Section 34170) to Division 24 of the California Health and Safety Code. Commencing upon the effectiveness of AB X1 26, AB X1 26 suspends most redevelopment agency activities and, among other things, prohibits redevelopment agencies from incurring indebtedness or entering into or modifying contracts. Effective October 1, 2011, AB X1 26 dissolves all existing redevelopment agencies and redevelopment agency components of community development agencies, designates successor agencies to the former redevelopment agencies, imposes numerous requirements on the successor agencies and subjects successor agency actions to the review of oversight boards established pursuant to the provisions of Part 1.85. D. Health and Safety Code Section 34169 (h), which is set forth in Part 1.8, requires a redevelopment agency to prepare a preliminary draft of an initial recognized obligation payment schedule by no later than September 30, 2011, and provide it to the successor agency, if a successor agency is established pursuant to Part 1.85. The initial recognized obligation payment schedule must set forth the minimum payment amounts and due dates of payments required by enforceable obligations for the six- month period from January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012. E. AB X1 27 was signed by the Governor of California on June 29, 2011, adding Part 1.9 (commencing with Section 34192) to Division 24 of the California Health and Safety Code. Part 1.9 establishes an Alternative Voluntary Redevelopment Program whereby, notwithstanding the provisions of Part 1.8 and Part 1.85, a redevelopment agency will be authorized to continue to exist and carry out the provisions of the Redevelopment Law upon the enactment, prior to the applicable R6874-000111389904v1.doc deadline established in Part 1.9 (with the earliest deadline being October 1, 2011), by the city council of the city which includes that redevelopment agency of an ordinance to comply with Part 1.9. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34192, if a city participates in the Alternative Voluntary Redevelopment Program and complies with all requirements and obligations contained in Part 1.9, the redevelopment agency in that city will be exempt from Part 1.8 and Part 1.85. F. The California Redevelopment Association and League of California Cities have filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of California alleging that AB X1 26 and AB X1 27 are unconstitutional. On August 11, 2011, the Supreme Court of California decided to hear the case and set a briefing schedule designed to allow the Supreme Court to decide the case before January 15, 2012. On August 11, 2011, the Supreme Court also issued a stay order, which was subsequently modified on August 17, 2011. Pursuant to the modified stay order, the Supreme Court granted a stay of all of AB X1 27 (i.e., Part 1.9), except for Health and Safety Code Section 34194(b)(2) (relating to the determination of cities' fiscal year 2011-12 remittance amounts) and a partial stay of AB X1 26. With respect to AB X1 26, Part 1.85 was stayed in its entirety, but Part 1.8 (including Health and Safety Code Section 34169) was not stayed. Accordingly, the Agency desires to approve a preliminary draft of an initial recognized obligation payment schedule. NOW, THEREFORE, THE RANCHO PALOS VERDES REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY HEREBY FINDS, DETERMINES, RESOLVES AND ORDERS AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The above recitals are true and correct and are a substantive part of this Resolution. Section 2. This Resolution is adopted pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34169. Section 3.
