BACKGROUND This agenda item is to address an outcome of the California Supreme Court's decision in California Redevelopment Association,eta!.v.Matosantos,eta!.(Case No.S194861),the litigation challenging AB X1 26 ("AB 26)and AB X1 27 ("AB 27").AB 26 and AB 27,which were signed by the Governor of California on June,29,2011,added Parts 1.8 and 1.85 to the Community Redevelopment Law. The Supreme Court largely upheld AB 26,invalidated AB 27,and held thatAB 26 may be severed from AB 27 and enforced independently.The Supreme Court generally revised the effective dates and deadlines for performance of obligations in Part 1.85 (the dissolution provisions)arising before May 1,2012 to take effect four months later.As a result of the Supreme Court's decision,on February 1,2012,all redevelopment agencies are dissolved and successor agencies are designated as successor entities to the former redevelopment agencies. RDA D-1 NEXT STEPS IN REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY DISSOLUTION· AMENDMENT OF ENFORCEABLE OBLIGATION PAYMENT SCHEDULE January 17,2012 Page 2 of2 Pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34169(a),until successor agencies are authorized,redevelopment agencies must continue to make all scheduled payments for enforceable obligations as defined in Health and Safety Code Section 34167(a).Pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34167(h),redevelopment agencies shall not make a payment unless it is listed in an adopted enforceable obligation payment schedule ("EOPS"),other than payments required to meet obligations with respect to bonded indebtedness. The Agency previously adopted an EOPS.In accordance with Health and Safety Code Section 34169(g),the original EOPS only lists payments obligated to be made,by month, through December 2011.Since the Agency will not be dissolved until February 1,2012, staff recommends that the Agency adopt the attached Resolution to amend the EOPS to include payments coming due after December 2011.Subsequently,the City,as successor agency,will consider adoption of the Agency's EOPS as the successor agency's EOPS (with any appropriate modifications),and the successor agency will pay enforceable obligations pursuant to the EOPS until such time as a recognized obligation schedule becomes operative. Amounts Added to the Amended EOPS Staff has added $65,000 to the Amended EOPS to provide for the final payment to Hardy &Harper for the landslide stability project (Palos Verdes Drive South roadside grading). This project was funded with accumulated fund balance from the Portuguese Bend Capital Projects Fund,and was not funded with tax increment revenue. In addition,as authorized by the December 1,2003 loan agreement between the City and the Agency,Staff has added the following administrative expenses incurred by the City during FY1 0-11 to the balance of the loan from the City to the Agency: >-The FY10-11 Supplemental Education Revenue Augmentation Fund (SERAF) payment of $67,967;and >-The FY10-11 property tax increment administration fee of $21 ,951 charged by the County. FISCAL IMPACT Amendment of the EOPS will authorize the Agency to pay its enforceable obligations after December 31,2011 and prior to dissolution of the Agency on February 1,2012.
