June Catalano said she and staff of the County would like to make some introductory background comments about the City's and County's General Plans, some of the deficiencies that presently exist in the City and County and the benefits hoped to seen from the redevelopment process as a means to correct these deficiencies. She said the purpose of the Redevelopment Project is to improve property values throughout this area. She said this joint redevelopment project is to be implemented by an MOU with specific tasks. She said although the City's Redevelopment Agency will be implementing the Plan, the City will have no land use or permit authority in the unincorporated area; this is a responsibility of the County. She said the tax increment is split on a 50-50 basis for the life of the project. She said there will be one, half-time County Planner. She said the County intends to establish a citizens advisory committee. She said expenditures will be a joint effort, review will occur on a yearly basis, and capital improvements will be planned on a five-year basis. She said the Plan is governed by the General Plans of the City and County, and there is not a separate redevelopment plan for this area. She noted page 16 of the Plan states that it is intended that permitted land uses as set forth in the General Plan shall be permitted land uses governing the applicable portions of this plan. She said Owner Participation Agreements are not required as they have been in the past. Per Section 407, in the event the Redevelopment Agency is not involved in a particular property, an agreement shall not be required.
