Redevelopment Agency Implementation Plan 2 September 13, 2010 Center, Design of Estudillo- Callan Parking Garage, 9th Grade Campus Enhancements West San Leandro: MacArthur Boulevard Streetscape Improvements, Doolittle Drive Airport Gateway Improvements, Eden Road Property Acquisition, Enhanced Industrial Strategies Housing: Casa Verde, Estabrook Place Senior Affordable Housing Though limited by debt obligations and reduced funding for projects due to the State take of over $5.3 million and slowed/reduced growth in tax increment, the 2010 -14 Implementation Plan contains the remaining projects in the 2004 -09 Plan and additional projects and programs to enhance the City's image, support local businesses, prevent blight and improve the quality of life. Some projects identified in this Plan include the implementation of the Downtown Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Strategy and A Downtown Benefit or Improvement District, development of San Leandro Crossings, EBMUD, Albertsons, Town Hall Square, Kaiser Permanente's retail site and a Specific Plan for Marina Boulevard. The Plan addresses the Agency's housing responsibilities and requires the Agency to provide the Set -Aside Fund balance, projected expenditures, and the number of targeted housing units at various income levels over the next five years. The law also requires a summary of the number of units produced under the prior Implementation Plan period, and a description of future housing programs and activities to implement housing production goals. In July 2009, the Agency created a new Redevelopment Advisory Committee (RAC) to provide input to proposed plans, projects, policies and priorities in all three project areas and set -aside housing. The RAC met ten times to review and assist in drafting the new Five Year Implementation Plan that includes four sections - Plaza, Joint, WSL/MacArthur, and Affordable Housing. The many successful programs and projects over the past five years were covered — especially capital improvement projects. As the Agency is unable to provide funding for all the objectives, leveraging private investment and obtaining financial assistance from other sources is essential to accomplishing the objectives. Staff would like to recognize the RAC members included below for their time and valuable input. Barbara M. Brooks Dan Gatto Robert H.
