In particular, he is concerned that property owners be provided <br />ample notice of any impending redevelopment action, and that staff be <br />available at that time to thoroughly explain the process and schedule. <br /> <br />In an effort to address these concerns, outlined below are the existing <br />Agency policies with regard to owner/tenant participation, property <br />acquisition and development procedures. <br /> <br />Owner Particioation <br /> <br />California Redevelopment Law requires agencies to adopt rules to permit <br />participation in the project area by owners and business tenants "to the <br />maximum extent feasible consistent with the objectives of the <br />Redevelopment Plan." <br /> <br />Participation includes remaining in substantially the same location by <br />retaining all or portions of the property; or by retaining all or <br />portions of the property and purchasing adjacent property from the <br />Agency; or joining with another person or entity for development of the <br />owner's and other property. Participation also includes buying property <br />from the owners and offering the owners the opportunity to develop other <br />property jointly with othër persons or entities. <br /> <br />In every case, participation opportunities must be consistent with, and <br />will not impair the objectives of, the Redevelopment Plan, and must <br />otherwise be consistent with the guidelines shown on the attached <br />Exhibit A. <br /> <br />These rules also provide that the Agency must notify owners and business <br />tenants of their participation opportunities prior to. taking and <br />redevelopment action on their property as further described in <br />Section 601 of Exhibit A. <br /> <br />prooertv AcQuisition <br /> <br />Once the Agency authorizes acquisition of property, whether it be for a <br />public improvement project or a development project, owners and tenants <br />are afforded ample notice and opportunity to relocate. <br /> <br />.> <br /> <br />Exhibit A <br />Page 1 of 4 <br /> <br />CS-808 <br />
