MINUTES Page 3 <br /> City of San Leandro City Council and San Leandro Redevelopment Agency Special Joint Meeting — January 17, 2011 <br /> Consideration of the letter was not listed on the agenda. Council and staff discussed <br /> having the City Manager sign the letter. <br /> Councilmember Starosciak commented on the excellent discussion points contained in <br /> the letter. She pointed out the many benefits to the school districts of the redevelopment <br /> pass - through funds for capital projects. <br /> Business Development Analyst Jeff Key outlined the key points of the letter. <br /> Ms. Williams determined that, in order for the Council to be able to consider the letter, <br /> it must find that there was a need to take immediate action, and that the need for the <br /> action came to the City's attention after the agenda was posted. Since less than two - <br /> thirds of the Council membership was present, the vote must be unanimous. <br /> • Minute Order No. 2011 - 002, Motion Adding to the Agenda Consideration of a <br /> Letter to State Officials Opposing the Elimination of Redevelopment Agencies. <br /> By motion, the City Council added to the agenda consideration of a letter to <br /> State officials opposing the elimination of redevelopment agencies.
